TEDDY HAVING A
STRENUOUS TRIP
River of Doubt in Brazil Was Almost
too Rapid for the Rough
Rider

New York, March 24.-Col. Theo-
dore Roosevelt's family is anxiously
awaiting further advices about the
accident by which his party lost its
entire equipment in the rapids of a
Brazilian river. News Of the mis-
hap came in a brief message from
Anthony Fiala, member of the
| party. 1t was dated a. Santarem,
Brazil and read:
We have lost everything in the
rapids. Telephone my wife of my

Santarem is in Para state at the
confluence of the Tapajos river with

STRICT ECONOMY
Cities Can't Have ANY Further Dip
in the Building Pork Barrel
this Session

Washington, March 24.-Repre-
sentative Frank Clark, of Florida,
chairman of the House committee on
public buildings and grounds, has
written a letter to every member of
Congress which shows that it will be
useless for any city in Florida or any
other state to ask for new authoriZa-
tions for public buildings at this ses-
sion of Congress. The letter makes
plain that/no new authorizations will
be granted. 1t says:
My Dear Colleague: / am sub
mitting herewith copy of the rules
recently adopted by this committee
setting forth the different classes OF
public building projects the commit
tee will consider during the present
session of Congress-:
Il. Cases where a contract has
been let, and it is found that a suf-
ficient amount of money has not
been authorized to complete the
building The committee will con
slider a bill to increase the limit OF
cost.

and the construction Of building OF
the construction of building on q
site already acquired has been au-
th0rized. and it is found that it is
impossible to purchase the site and
construct building. as the case may
be. then the committee will consider
a bill to increase the limit Of cost.
80 Where the purchase price OF
site has been authorized ana after
efforts made are found impossible tc
acquire a suitable site for the amount
! authorized, then the committee viii
I consider a bill 10 increase the limit
Of cost.
! Unless a proposed building project
comes within one of these three
classes it will not even be considered
by the committee.

delightful Way to Drop Your Dimes
and Dollars

Flip over a dime into the blue
depths of Silver Springs and watch
it glide gracefully to the bottom
fifty feet below. 1t will take on its
rim the most royal iridescent glow
imaginable. A silver dollar because
it is larger, and the eagle can be
seen palmer, appears deep in the wa
ter the most beautiful. The rapid
moving iridescent glow around the
dollars edge and over the eagle
feathers reflects the bird of freedom
fiuttering. If the head, Liberty,
strikes on the bottom up her eyes re-
fleets the deep sea blue eyes of the
sailor. The agent here, Mr.. Terrell,
will change for you a silver dollar
for dollar bill on request.

Tourist Travel is Heavy

The tourist travel is now north
ward, from South Florida via the
Brick City and river steamers and
yachts. The hotels in Ocala and
Palatka are we'll filled with tourists
and on some nights they are taxed
for room. The restaurants in the
cities fed many and the walters hop
lively. When one vessel on the river
cannot ship the passengers assign
ed to it on sailing days, her officers
are Southern in hospitality in recon-
mending the other lines Each YES
sci on the stream is carrying, espec-
tally down stream, full registers, and
on some days over number.

.0KLAWAHA BOYS
RIDE ALL|GAT0RS
Live Sport on the River by Torch
Light-Big Passenger Lists Every
Day on all the Boats

Silver Springs, March 24.-The
boys on the river brink are expert in
hunting the alligator. To catch little
live alligators the boys get poles
with boat hooks attached and go and
station themselves right over the
mother alligator's cave, then grunt.
The young ones as they come UP are
hooked. Sometimes the old one bobs
to the surface. A boy, il il is possible,
will stride it, while the other boys
throw him tow line. These river
boys prefer night hunting of the al
ligator. 1t is weird; it is genuinely
Southern; it is sport of a very pecul-
lar nature This freight hunting
of the alligator is more nature of the
South than sport.
