According to Engineer Fred West, who was
III oI TIC SWVCu engine, NO. lsS was
backing south on the trestle rather slowly
when the tow-ear which was coupled on the
rear OF the engine struck a string OF three flat
cars that were on the tracks north of First
and Jefferson streets. At the time the tow
car was about 100 yards north OF the street
intersection
The three men shouted TO Engineer West
just before the two cars collided The two
whites and negro were seated on the front
of the tow-car but their warning was too late
TO avoid collision. When the. cars met Mer-
1T and German fell from the car TO the
ground about twenty feet below. The negro
rolled head forward onto the ties OF the trestle
and lay there while hall length of the tow
car passed above him.
That the negro was not ground beneath the
wheels OF the tow'car is a miracle. He was
still beneath the car when the flats" after
striking two boxes" south of Jefferson. rolled
back down the swag at that point onto the
tow-ear a second time. The presence of mind
Of Fireman H. Watkins probably saved his
lie. The negro was preparing 10 crawl from
beneath the ,ow-car when the fireman cried to
him TO remain where he was until the second
collision. Harms needing OF that warning un-
douhtedly saved his life
The injuries sustained by Merit, and Cor
man were caused 10 a large extent by several
large pieces of lumber piled beneath the tres

NAT REISS SOCTHERN
SHOWS COMING

Nat Reiss, the amusement mag
nate, and his biz aggregation of va
ried amusement enterprises that
have just closed the longest and most
satisfactory engagement ever played
Ohree weeks in Jacksonville, has
closed contracts to appear here all
next week for the combined benefit
of Elks Lodge l2?l and the fire de
partment. Nothing approaching this
organization in magnitude or quail
ity has ever visited Lakeland. The
name OF Nat ReieS stands the sam
in his business as does the Rinalng
Brothers in the circus world-at the
head and above all Others. With up
ward Of twenty odd years experience
as an amusement purveyor, he has
gained a most enviahlc name with
the Americans, Canadians and Eng
l;sh people as business man of re-
liability, honesty Of purpose, faithful
in carrying ont every promise made
the public and strict integrity in his
business dealings. Mr.. Reiss' shows
are made up of features that have
proved acceptable TO patrons in the
larger cities of the country. Each
Individual attraction being num-
Der in itself. The fact that Mr..
Rciss has just closed three weeks
engagement for the Shrine in Jack
sOnville. and is to 90 back in March
to open his regular season under
other auspices, should be ample as
surance of the worth and merit of
this gigantic aggregation. Particu-
lars will be given from day to day in
the columns of this paper.

INDOOR PLANTS NEED CARE
Many Win Do Well In Gas.lIchsed
Rooms if They Are Judiciously
Selected ard Tended.

One of the great secrets in the sue
cessful cultivation of plants in rooms
Is Judgment in selecting the right
kinds, as an experiment will soon
show, will do we'll In gas-lighted or
drafty rooms, others will not; so 1t Is
most essential that care should be ex-
ercised in choosing kinds adapted to
both purposes
Those who have the good fortune to
have their rooms lighted by electricity
need not worry, because all kinds Of
plants will succeed under the latter
conditions.
The best Of all plants to grow in
gas-lighted rooms are the parlor
palms.
There are two distinct kinds OF
these. one which produces very tall
leaves and another of the dwarf
growth.
If carefully watered and their
leaves sronged at least once u week,
they will thrive for years.
Another excellent plant to grow un.
der similar conditions is the tigleaf
palm. or socallcd "castoroil plant"
This has giant ivy-likc green leaves.
which radiatc from Il central stem and
form handsome plant. As it in.
creases in age it is. however. apt to
lose its lower leaves, and hence some
Of its beauty
The ''india-rubber" plant. a brother
of the fig tree, is another plant which
Is admirably adapted for gas-lighted
rooms.
The plant usually grows with a sin
/ gle main stem, and if we'll cared fol
will in few years attain height OF
five feet or six feet When It becomes
