If the following from the Dunnel-

phate City will go ahead Of the Brick
City, unless the latter hurries and
makes connection with water trans
portation. The Advocate says:
In addition 10 having now cheap
fertile lands, we wish to call the at
Jention Of the outside world to the
fact that We have a great power sta
ton on the river here and are not
only prepared to offer cheap current
and free sites to manufacturing
plants wishing TO locate here, but we
can furnish cheap current to any one
enterprising enough to wish to If
rigate his farm. At present wires run
in every direction to the various

IN erecting the great power station
referred to above, certain shoals,
which have heretofore been a bar
rier to navigation on our river, have
been completely submerged, and we
soon will have ten feet of water from
the sea up to Dunnellon, a distance
OF some twenty miles. This is suf-
ficient for considerable water traffic

WIFE. MATERIAL WASTED

D. V. H. in the Tampa Tribune
gives the following description OF an
Irish setter. The description is so
graphic that the Star can't help say
ing that if the dog had only been a
woman she would have made an
ideal wife for a selfish man:
That Irish setter never talked back
to her master no matter what she
was ordered TO do. He made a mis-
take and killed her by overwork but
she never tried to fall down" on
the job while doing it.
She never thought that what her
master did was not right. There was
never a question in her mind that he
was capable Of any wrong doing.
He never had to make company
for her; she was always satisfied in
the presence of that one person.
She never asked questions about
the food that was placed before her;
she ate it and was satisfied, never
kicking at the quality or quantity.
She would follow him to the ends
OF the earth; no thought of turning
back would have ever entered her
head.
She never sulked when mistreat-
ed; for the time being she would
show as plainly as a human being
that her feelings were hurt but it
lasted only a few minutes. In a half
hour she was as cheerful and bright
as before.
She always tried to please. 1t is
part OF a dogs nature TO require pet
ting and she knew what to do to be
petted.
Her love belonged wholly to her
master-there was no rival in her
affections.
She respected his moods; hundreds
of times when not spoken to for
hours, she kept Flooding along, new
er intruding in the way.
She never told her troubles to
him; they were always kept to her
self
She never pried into his secrets.
She was always polite and thanked
him with a wag of her tail for any
kind word spoken to her.
She would have fought to the
death for him.
She always missed him when he
was away, running about the house
and yard looking into every nook
and corner.

An old-established Ocala industry
that deserves much greater encour-
agement than it is receiving is
Charles Mathews cigar factory. Mr..
Mathews makes as good cigars as
can be found anywhere, and he en-
ploys skilled workmen, who spend
all their money at home. It would
be a mighty good plan for Ocala peo-
pie to buy more Of his cigars and en-
able him TO employ more workmen.
II he was properly patrOnized, he
could employ ten workmen where he
now employs one. who would spend
thousand dollars q month instead
OF d hundred in Ocala. This isn't
an advertisement for Mathews: it is
morey-saying advice for OcaIa. Il is
proper 10 add right here that Secre-
tary Rooney Of the. Marion County
Board Of Trade will not buy cigar

ANCIENT HISTORY OF OCALA

The Star, in common with several
other state papers, has commented
adversely on the fact that the state
Legislature did not adopt the TOrrens
title system, which is in successful
operation in some states and does
away with a great deal of the trou-
bic necessary in tracing the titles in
Florida. Speaking OF the matter, the
other day, to a prominent abstract
man, the Star was informed that
while the system was ideal in new
states, where all the titles were di-
rect from the government, it would
not do very we'll in the older COM
monwealths, where the chain Of
deeds went back a century or more.
In connection with this, the reporter
was shown an abstract of title to
half of Ocala, going back for ninety
six years. This abstract showed
how in 1925 one Antonio Alvarez
sold 1900 acres OF land (Which land
the said Alvarez had received in
1917 from the king OF SPAIN in the
big swamp or hammock OF Alachua
county. to Col. Cad. HUMPHREYS, of
st. Augustine The land covered
most of Ocala and the purchase price
was $3.50. An immense amount of
Interesting history can be dug out
of the dusty public records by a man
who knows how.
The abstract may be summed up
us follows: Lying to the east of the
land patented to the county commits
i;ioners and on which the original
town of Ocala was plated is the AL
varez Grant OF 1900 acres. This
tract was granted to Don. Antonio
Alvarez by Don Jose Coppinger, a
former governor of East Florida
when province of Spain, on Dec.
II. 1917, under what is now desig-
mated as the Royal Order of 1915"
of the king Of Spain.
On August 80, 1925, Alvarez con-
Veyed to Cad Humphreys of st. Au-
gustine, an undivided moiety of the
>
at place called the big swamp or
hammock" for a recited considera-
ton OF $3.50, and on June 6, 1S49,
Alvarez conveyed the remaining
moiety Of the tract to Joseph Cald-
well with a recited consideration of
$4,000.
The grant remained undivided
until 1851, when Stephen Bryan,
who then owned the Humphreys
moiety, quit-claimed his interest in
the west half to Joseph Caldwell.
Caldwell practically subdiyided all Of
his interest.
The east half remained in an en-
tirety until 1866, when the estate
of William II. Howard conveyed it
TO s. VI. G. Gary and Isabella c. Hen
sderson and through these title was
vested in William Cox and then be

Neighbors of Mrs. Grace L. Crawford,

which led the association to ADOPT Its
program with relation to a high schopi
for Anacostia pupils, who are required
to go long distances to the various
Eigh schools in the city under -he ar
