producers held at l3l2 cents 1t was re-
garded as purely nominal owing to in

Sales OF Central Leather yesterday
made up one-siNth Of the total business.
The price rose TO 3Sis, a new high for the
year. The directors meet next Tuesday to
take action on the dividend and friends
OF the company are willing to give odds
of to 1 that a distribution OF at least
per cent. will b. declared. II this Is
done Central Leather will be the first

THE STEEL MARKET.

Conditions IN the steel market showed
no change yesterday. Producers con-
tinued to quote low prices so as to Sc
cure orders for prompt shipment. and re-
ports indicated that they had succeeded
to some extent as buyers had been show
ing slow but steady increase,
The opinion Is maintained among steel
men that the first of tho year will witness
a turn for the better, though return ot
normal conditions is not expected for
some time, Buying of steel rails has
shown some Improvement recently. ~.

Girl Visitors Idea Of a Division
Seemed to Be to Take All the
Space You Could Get

"a friend came to visit me last
week." said the Girl Flapper, "and as
there is only one bureau / told her /
would have to share It with her. So
I pushed my things out OF the way
and she began to unpack. This is
what she put out:
"A bottle Of spirits of camphor, a
bottle of camphor water and boracic
acid that she uses for her eyes, a
bottle of witch hazel, another of ben
zoin, a box of face powder and a tin
Of talcum powder, a makeup box,
sixteen ivory toilet things, four Ste
venson texts in frames, an atomizer,
q bottle of ammonia, another of oil
of pennyroyal for mosquitoes, nine
hatpins, a sewing bag, a jewelry box,
some perfumery and an alcohol lamp.
"'Now, I'll unpack my bathroom
things she said, and she took out
three sponges, large, medium and
small; a rubber bath glove, a bottle
of liquid soap and four kinds of tooth
powders and mouth washes, a patent
exerciser, a bathrobe and slippers, an
antiseptic bathbrush, a rubber spray
a thermometer and a whiskbroom.
Then she borrowed my button

No. ReaIlu Naval Stores.

The terming Of t%urpentine, tar,
pitch and rosin as naval stores is a
misnomer. 1t originated many years
ago, when tar and pitch first were
used to coat the bottoms of vessels to
make them watertight and to cover
the rigging OF ships to preserve 1t
from the action of the weather. All
ships carried always a supply OF tar
among their stores, and hence the
original Of the term naval stores" 1t
was used only by ship builders and
ship owners and others who had to do
directly with shipping, and was a nau-
tical term only. Then, when the prod
ucts of the gum Of the long-leaf pine
came into general commercial impor-
lance, the term was accepted as a fit
ting one for all articles of commerce
manufactured from that substance,
and is maintained to this day, al
though the uses that created 1t have
little to do with the interests OF the
trade.

FLORIDA CoNVICTs
ENJOYED THE FOURTH

People in other states, who don t
know what they are talking about,
make practice OF abusing Florida
for its treatment of its convicts. It
is safe bet that the prisoners of no
other state in the union had as sat
isfactory fourth as those of Flor
ida. In nearly all the turpentine and
phosphate camps, the hardened les
sees, who are paying an average of
81 day for the convicts, not only
gave the men holiday on the
fourth, but an extra good dinner be-
side
Following was the bill of fare at
the Marion Farms. Few free men
were better fed:
10 a. m.-Tom Watson watermel-
ons and ROCKFORD cantaloupes.
IL m.-Fresh sliced tomatoes. To-
mato sauce. Florida beef stew Car
olina steamed rice. Light bread
Cornbread. Peach pie. Mince pie
Lemon pie. Apple pie. Lemonade.
Coffee.
Supper the same as dinner Plenty
for all and to spare.
The prisoners added to the enjoy
ment of their holiday with music
furnished by themselves, games and
reading.

FOURTH OF July FATALITY
Auto from Leesburg Killed Man at
DaytOna Beach

Daytona, July THE fourth of
July celebration at Daytona, Day
tona Beach and Seabreeze, which
was attended by fully 5000 visitors
from other parts of the state, was
marred by one fatality at the close
of the day, when Samuel ID. Melvin,
carpenter and owner of the former
Mabbette property at Holly Hill, coll
lided with an auto on the beach not
far south of the ocean pier, shortly
after dark, and was instantly killed,
his neck being broken by the impact.
Mr.. Melvin was on his bicycle rid
ing without light. A small auto
driven by Mr. MacCormack, of Lees
burg, was going north on the beach
at pretty lively clip, and the driver
did not see Mr. Melvin until the lat
ter turned directly in his path too
