TRIP TO LEVoN

On last Sunday morning the editor
iof this paper enjoyed an automobile
trip TO Levon. The day was bright
and the weather cool and crisp. The
machine was in splendid working or
der and moved along at a pace that
would have excited wonder to our an
cestors not very far removed. The
road is in excellent condition and the
scenery is most charming. Fertile
fields, undulating lands, pine forests
and beautiful hammocks, with dog
wood blossoms and jessamine show
ing in the distance, and some very
comfortable homes, such, for instance,
las Capt S. r. Pyles'.
The lands are better than we ex-
pected to find them. and there is
more doing along the line Of farm or
creations New settlers are coming in
and old ones are putting their fields
I'm better shape by the removal Of
s'umps In a word, the whole out
look :. assuring and betolzens faith,
ard soils prosperity with an ever-en-
lar-las p.
The McGehee lumber mills are the
main attraction at Leyon The mill
has a capacity OF fifty thousand feet,
and is kept constantly busy, and has
a supply Of timber that will keep it
busy for the next fifteen years. Be-
sides the mill there is general com
missary store, drug store, coy
church and a school house.
The farming land is excellent, and
many are engaging in this interest
ing occupation. which is becoming
here. as in other parts of our coun-
try. more and more prosperous.
The woods are full of Proctors, and
they are all farmers, and are succeed
ing because they are farming with
some degree of industry and scientific
application of the most thorough and
improved methods.
our friend, DR.. T. K. Slaughter, has
a farm of five hundred acres, and is
recording very fine results.
The farmers of Leyon are putting
the other sections of the county on
notice. We are expecting great
things from it's boys and girls in their
competition to win the prizes for the
largest yields of corn and tomatoes.
Keep your eyes on Levon, for that
section in the way of general and sci
entifc farming is destined to become
the chief stone in our farming edifice,
III other sections don't look out"

WHAT A FLORIDA WOMAN HAS
DONE AT WASHINGTON

A special to the Jacksonville Me-
tropolis from Washington says that
after a fight of two years, Miss Sara
Freeland of Jacksonville, Fla, has
succeeded in opening a way for re-
trial of her brother, Ellicott H. Free
land, and three other West Point Ca
diets and their possible reinstatement
in the academy, from which they were
dismissed in 1911 for having liquor in
their possession.
At the time of the court-martial the
law made the punishment of dismis-
sal mandatory in case of conviction.
Congress had passed law before the
students We're tried leaving the pen
atty to the discression of the court,
but it had not been promulgated, and
the officers were not guided by it,
Neither the war department nor
congress often modifies a sentence of
this sort, but with all the odds against
her, Miss Freeland set out for Wash
ington, determined to obtain a re-trial
of the case and reinstatement of her
brother. She enlisted several sena-
tors in her aid
First, Miss Freeland convinced the
war department authorities that the
case should be re-opened. To do this
she mastered the intricacies of mill
tary law, practically arguing the case
before General Crowder, who capitu-
lated. Next, she prepared and pre-
scented to President Taft a brief in
the case Then she obtained the word
of Representative Hay that the house
would approve the bill if it were pass
ed by the senate. Before this, the
senate had passed such a bill, but it
was defeated in the house.
Miss Freeland pleaded and argued
with senators, and last Friday the
bill for re-opening the trial was Of
fered by Senator Fletcher as an
amendment to the Military Academy
appropriation bill. Senator Bristow
raised point of order against it in
committee of the whole. This was
sustained. and when the bill was re-
ported Senator BristOW was caught
mapping" and the amendment was
adopted.
1t is expected that the house will
approve the amendment and that the
president will sign the bill.

ANOTHER SALE

About the first of January Mr.. J. 'B,
We'll of Atlanta, and Mr.. John T.
Moore of this city bought out the Car
michael & Son Company's wholesale

On the first of March Mr.. We'll re-

chael, and while the business will
still be run as the Carmichael & Son

kind in the city.
Mr.. We'll has not yet decided as to
his future movements, but he does
not think that he will leave our city.
He says that he has lost nothing in
his investments here, and thinks that
it is an admirable business point, and
that it has a bright future.

HOSPITAL SHOW UNDER WAY

Fiji of the Toy Shop" which de-
picts the marvellous sayings and do
ings of a shop full of toys and dolls.
which have become animated through
the application OF magic salts, will
furnish a lively and unique entertain
ment when presented next week at
che Temple theater for the benefit Of
the hospital.
It is not often that such a sumptu-
GUS production is attempted by anna
teurs. The play requires 125 partici-
pants. and a special investment Of
fantastic costuming and scenic effects
being necessary for it's portrayal.
The play, with ali its appeal to
children. is not a child production eX-
clusively. Like Peter Pan" and the
BLUE Bird" the leading roles are all
taken by adults The story. told will
be heartily enjoyed by all, as the tale
moves to a consistent end.
In the large cast there will be the
added charm of many we'll known
faces and popular voices in singing
and character work. This, coupled
with the fact that "Fi-Fi" has been
presented in nearby cities, has arous-
ed much interest.

FIRE IN THIRD WARD MONDAY
NIGHT

Ocala was visited last night by one
of the most destructive fires she has
had in some months.
The fire alarm was sent in about 10
o'clock from the third ward The
fire proved to be in the Wallis prop
erty on West Broadway.
The blaze started in a colored res
turant on the corner Of West Broad
way and Pine street, and quickly
spread to the large wooden building
just east of It and occupied by the
livery stables OF Harrell, Johnson &
Company.
The next building to catch was a
two story cottage owned by Fergu-
son & U0her. OF Lakeland and oc-
cupied by Lulu Lindsay.
Nearly all the contents of the burn
ed buildings were removed before the
fire got TO them All the horses and
nearly all the vehicles in the Far-
irell-Johnson barns were saved al
though large quantity Of hay and
feed stuff was destroyed.
A cottage occupied by c0lore3
man on Pine street and adjoining The
Mount Moriah Baptist church was
also burned, but the church was saved
from destruction by hard work on
the part Of the fremen. The roof
and a portion of the cupalo Of the
church was burned, and the buildings
on the opposite side of Broadway
were badly scorched, but were saved
by the constant streams Of water kept
on them.
The small one-story building on
west side of Pine street occupied by
the Carriers bakery annex was also
pretty badly burned, but the only
harm done the stock was from moving
it to a place of safety on the street
further west.
The loss on the buildings is es-
timated at about eight thousand dol
lars, while that on the contents was
considerably less.
1t was not learned to what extent
the loss is covered by insurance.
The fremen and the many volun-
teers did good work in not allowing
the fire to spread to adjoining prop
critics. There was not much wind
stirring, which was very fortunate, as
the many wooden buildings in the vi
cinity of the fire would have made an
ugly blaze if it had gotten away from
the control of the firemen.
This was the first fire of any con-
sequence that we have had in some
months, and occurring at an hour
when many people were out at the
theaters and the carnival, several
thousand people witnessed it at close
