FORMER OCALA BOY MADE cOUN
TY JUDGE FOR DADE

Sam Barco has been appointed
county Judge to succeed Jldge Red
mond B. Gautier, who has accepted
the position of county solicitor.
This closes one of the most inter
esting races for official position that
has been witnessed in this county

which has been vacant since Friday.
will once more be filled. For the last
four days it has been impossible for
anyone to secure marriage licenses,
to have wills probated, or to have
other affairs attended to which come
under the jurisdiction of this court.
Sam Barco is a graduate of the law
department of Stetson University, and
hung out his single in Miami little
more than year ago. He has handled
many cases in Miami with much sue
cess, and his friends predict that in
the new honor that has come to him
he will make an enviable record.
Since coming to Miami he has
been associated with the legal firm
of Atkinson, Grambling & Burdine
offices in the Bank of Bay Biscayne
building. From now on he will be
found at the office of the county
Judge in the court house.
Mr.. Barco is the son of Hon. j. d
Barco, of Clearwater, who for many
years held the position as register OF
the United States land office in
Gainesville.-Mimai Metropolis. Sans
hosts of Ocala friends congratulate
him heartily for his splendid appoint
ment.

GAGGED AND BOUND AND STORE

An alarm of fire was sent in Thurs
day night from the first ward.
The fire department made a quick
response and it was discovered that
the blaze proceeded from little gro
Gerry store operated by an aged gen
tleman by the name of Hollingshead,
After the flames had been quenched
and the fire chief and his squad of

Hollingshead, the owner of the store,
who was bound, gagged, and had
been struck over the head with some
blunt instrument.
He was unbound as quickly as pos
sible, and was found not only uncon-
scious, but scarcely breathing.
A physician was Immediately sum-
moned, who ordered his removal to
the hospital, where everything pos
sible was done for the unfortunate
gentleman, but up to late hour he
was still unconscious. it having been
discovered that his skull had been
badly crushed by the blow on the
head.
Mr.. Hollingshead passed away some
hours later.

head lived alone, sold his goods for
cash, and was supposed to have had
considerable sum of money in his
possession.
Several similar attempts of murder
of this kind have been committed in
Jacksonville, and some of the same
gang may have been the perpetrators
of this crime.
Sheriff Galloway, as soon as he
heard of the particulars, fastened to
the convict farm and procured dogs
and tried to trace the authors of the
dastardly crime. 1t is hoped that he
will be successful in his efforts and
that summary justice will be meted
out to them.

Time is the best test of truth. Here
is an Emmett story that has stood the
test of time. 1t is a story with a
point which will come straight home
to many of us.
Mrs. d. w. Harrell, Washington
avenue, Emmett, Idaho, says: zone
of our family was troubled all his life
by weak kidneys. He never was
strong or healthy and he had little
energy. He complained of severe
pains in the small of his back most of
the time. Seeing Doan's Kidney Pills
highly recommended for such all
ments, we got a box. After a few
doses, there. was an improvement.
Doan's Kidney Pills acted directly on
the kidneys and in a short time re-
lieved the backache and other symp-
toms of kidney trouble. l gladly con-
firm the endorsement l gave Doan's
