The New York world gave itself
a fine advertisement by agreeing to
pay Mr.. Bryan $4,000 a year dur
ing his term of office so as to give
him his desired income of 100000
annually, provided he would keep
off the ChautauQua platform and
confine himself to his official duties.
There was no sincerity in the offer
and it was only made to humiliatc
Mr.. Bryan and exploit the World
We don't fancy the Chautauqua side
line for the secretary of State, but
we glory in his spunk in not LETTING
the New York World run him of
the track.

General Nelson A. Miles wants to
90 to Congress from Massachusetts,,
his native State, and is SO accom-
modating about the matter that he
is perfectly willing to so either as

point being that he gets there Gen
Miles has the most robust ego Of
any man in this country, and now
that ne is out of the army and has
written everything he coula think OF
for the magazines concerning him

is suffering for grub and to break
into Congress seems to be his only
chance to feed it. General Miles

EDITOR STOvALL ON
GOOD ROADS BUILDING

W. F. Stovall, editor Of the Tam
pa Tribune, writes an article to his
paper which Is reproduced in this
issue. Col. Stovall has been doing
some thinking along the lines that
the Lancer has been following ever
since he took charge of this COL
umn. That any one can oppose a
Statewide system Of good roads for
Florida seems absurd when the re-
suits accruing from such course
are analysed. Colonel Stovall thinks
that the amount Of money brought
into the State yearly by people of
means who would be attracted to
this summer playground would more
than equal all the returns from the
orange and vegetable crops.

The University of Merida at
Gainesville opens its doors for the
session of 1894 tomorrow and the
promise is for a larger attendance
than ever before. This fine school
under the administration of Presi-
dent Murphree is steadily growing In
excellence and it is to be observed
that State pride in its behalf is in
creasing every year. With such a
school in our State there is no need
for parents to send their sons else
where to get standard collegiate

BENTON ALSO HAS
 DEPOT TROUBLE

Little Rock, July 10.-The St. Louis, Iron Mountain & Southern lway Company yesterday afternoo. peti- toned the Puraski Chancery Court for an injunction against the railroad commission of Arkansas, w. L. Moose, attorney general; w. E. Floyd, secre- tary of the railroad commission, and J. $. Utley, prosecuting attorney for the seventh judicial district, to re- strain the defendants from causing to be enforced the order of the commits sion providing for the erection of the new Iron Mountain passenger station at Benton.
 In an order issued several weeks ago, following several hearings of the petitions, the railroad commission di- rected that the station be erected at a point midway between the site of the old station and the proposed site asked for by number of Benton petitioners.
 In the opinion of the commission this site was the best of the three of fered for decision. In the petition for the injunction the railroad sets forth that the site selected by the commits sion is impracticable because it is on

ASSESSMENT IN
 PAVING DISTRICT IS FILED BY BOARD BENEFITS AGGREGATING S39.- 900 ARE TAXED FOR THE
 IMPROVEMENT.

The assessment of benefits in Street Improvement District No. 1 of Con- way was filed this afternoon with City Recorder Opie Hartje by the board of assessors, composed of John Hartley, w. D. Cole, Jr., and J. A. Pence. The official notice of the filing appears in today's issue of the Log Cabin Demo- crat.
 Under the assessment benefits ag- gregating slightly over $39,000 are taxed against the business property included in the district which is to be paved. This, together with the ap- Ipropriation from the city treasury, it is thought will be fully enough to cover the cost of the paving and pay the interest on the bonds to be issued.
 The assessment book will be on file with the recorder for a period of 10 days, during which time any interest ed property owner will have the privi- lege of examining the assessment. Any protests against the assessment must be filed with the city council, which is authorized to hear com plaints as to the amount of benefits fixed.

BABY FALLS IS FEE :,
 INJURIES NOT SERIOUS
SIX-MONTHS-OLD DAUGHTER OF FARRELL CYST AND WIFE
 ROLLS OUT OF WINDOW.

The six-months-old daughter of MT. and Mrs. Harrell Gist fell from a sec ond-story window at their home on Faulkner and Caldwell streets at 8 o'clock this morning, but the injuries received are not thought to be serious and it is believed she will recover. The window from which the child fell IS about IS feet from the ground. The parents had left the baby asleep on her bed, which was alongside an open window. While alone the little one is supposed to have unlatched the window screen, which was hinged at the top, rolled against it and fallen out. When discovered the baby was on the ground, apparently unconscious, but she soon revived. The physicians at tending her said that no bones were broken, but could not be sure for day or two whether internal injuries had been sustained. The child's head and side were considerably bruised, but she was resting we'll this after noon.
 The accident is the second of the kind occurring here in the past few weeks. During Central commencement week, the two-year-old child of Rev. Otto Wilmington fell from second story window at their home on Robin son avenue, but was not seriously in- jured.

THE ELECTRIC CAR.

The erectrlc car IS the last word Tn comfortable living. It is a perambu-
 lating parlor ,n which women can
 the lap of luxury, bounding blithely from curb to street car through the
 crowded and swerving traffic of great city.
 An electric car is simply a rubber
 tired coach which carries several bush
 els of electricity in a large hustle. It
 can be driven by woman or a mere child, and usually does not travel over
 10 miles an hour. It does not explode
 or have magneto trouble, and it has no spark plugs, carburetors or water tubes. Because Of tnis the consump- tion of profanity required in driving
 an electric car is very small indeed. However, one electric car driven down
 the middle of a narrow street by a beautiful but thoughtless lady, can keep 40 gasoline cars on the low gear
 behind it and bring the general level of conversation in the neighborhood down 75 per cent.
 Electric cars are now the standard advertisement of prosperity. There
 was a time when a man could buy gasoline car and insert himself per lmanently into the best families there
 by. But now everyone whose credit is good owns an automobile with at least four cylinders, and the only way to shine in the eyes of the walking public is to amble haugntily down the street in neat little two-room cottage on wheels with a conservatory in glass vases and $400 worth of plate glass in plain view.
 Electric cars are now very expen- sive. The makers claim that this is
 because of the extraordinary costli- ness. But it will not be noticed that
 in order to keep the price up, electric cars are made more elaborate each
 year. The new models have room for a small tea party in arm chairs, and are so handsomely finished that a speck of mud creates as much havoc to their complexion as it does on the
 nose of an heiress. Some day the supply of electrics will exceed the de- mand. Then the price will come down
 on the run, and lighting companies will begin giving them away as they
 do electric irons, to increase the de- mand for current. This prospect should be an inducement for every American citizen to prolong his life as much as possible.
 The electric car is the most success ful method up to date of making the rich man glad he is alive. But even this joy has its drawbacks. Nothing makes the plug citizen so content with his lot as to see the panting rich man pushing home a 200-pound electric, while his wife holds the steering lever with naughty glare and tries to dis courage comment from the passerby. When electricity can be bought in buckets at the corner grocery and poured into the hustle of the limp and exhausted electric car, the life of it's owner will not be so speckled with gloom.-George Fitch, in St. Louis Times.
