The sea is compara- lively calm but the surge at that pout is always heavy. lt was this the rescue forces had to work to get within aiding distance of the schooner Shortly after sunset the fog thinned momentarily and from the wireless station at Belinas the Hanalei was glmpsed. It was seen the vessel was broken near the center and that on the ultng decks passengers and crew were grouped, clinging to masts and rails.

FLORIDA WOMEN AT THE b.
ENNIAL

On Wednesday of last week in Chi
cago the Florida delegation, of which
Mrs. Frank S. Jennings. of Jackson
vile is chairman, held their first meet
ing. The Florida delegation is taking
prominent part in the convention.
Mrs. Frank Jennings and Miss Lou
ise Meiggs of Jacksonville have both
been on the program, and made splen-
! did impressions.
Mrs. w. B. Young of Jacksonville
| is, as we announced several weeks
ago, a candidate for one of the direct
ors, and her election is conceded. She
will be the first Florida, woman to
hold an office in the federation.
Mrs. PennybackeI's reelection for
second term is conceded. Writing
of her Miss Katie Jackson of Tampa
says:
Mrs. Pennybacker is a sympathet-
ic speaker, and when speaking in the
name of more than a million women
she seemed inspired to say just the
right thing in the most tactful and
gracious manner.
"The presidents report was mas
terpiece. What wonderful woman
is our little president, so capable,
such a grand presiding officer, such a
frank, business-like woman, and
above all a true gentlewoman. We
of the southland can well be proud
of her, and we sincerely hope she will
again be our leader"
Besides the business of the conven-
tion, there have been speeches from
many speakers of national fame, and
a great many social, musical and ar
tistic entertainments for the dele
gates.

DEATH OF Mr.. NATHAN PEYsER
Death is inevitable and comes

Death is inevitable and comes to
us all. 1t is particularly sad when
it comes to a young person and robs
a home of an only son, and always
causes a great deal of sorrow. When
death came to Mr.. Nathan Peyser
Sunday morning, while causing great
sorrow to his family, the deceased
was relieved of much suffering, as he
had been in bad health for several
years, and for some time past had
suffered a great deal. We we can but
feel that in this case "He doeth all
things we'll"
Mr.. Peyser was thirty years old, the
only son of Mr.. and Mrs. Charles
Peyser, for many years prominent
residents in our city. Although born
in Eufaula, Ala, the deceased had
spent almost his entire life here,
having moved to Ocala when small
child. Before his health failed him
a few years ago he was engaged in
the cigar business with his father. He
was a genial and companionable boy,
and had many friends, but during the
past several years, on account of his
health, he had to live quietly at his
home.
Besides his devoted parents, he
leaves one sister, Miss Gertie Peyser,
and number of other relatives to
mourn his death.
On Monday afternoon at three
o'clock, from the Peyser home, the
funeral was held, and was largely at
tended by friends of the deceased,
and of the Peyser family.
AS there is no Jewish rabbi in
Ocala, the impressive Jewish burial
ceremonial was read by Mr.. Jake
Brown.
After the service at the house, the
body was conveyed to the Jewish
cemetery in North Ocala, where the
interment was made. At the grave
the Elks, of which the deceased was
a member, conducted the service ac-
cording to their ritual
The pail bearers were Messrs. Jake
Brown, William Wolff, Ben Rheinauer
and NJ. E. Robinson from among our
Jewish citizens, and the following
representatives from the Elks:
Messrs. G.. I. Maughs, Alfred Beck,
Marcus Frank and G.. J. Bitch.
The grave of Mr.. Peyser was COW
cred with beautiful floral offerings,
sent as tokens of love and sympathy
by many warm friends.
To the grieved parents, who during
their sons long illness, have nursed
him SO devotedly, devoting all of their
time to his care, and to his sister, we
offer our sincere sympathy.

THE souTH's GOOD ROADS

That the South has not been get
ting due credit for its work in road
improvement is indicated by book
let just issued under the title of Good
Pavements and Roads in the South" "
The first three or four pages contain
1914 photographs of sheet asphalt
pavements in Washington, d. c.,
Charleston, Louisville, and New Or
leans that are from 20 to 30 years of
age. These views are followed by a
score of pictures of the types Of road
way now being built in Southern
states. Virginia, Maryland, North and
South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee,
Alabama and Florida are among the
states represented. Most of this work
has been done by Southern contract
ors. Asphaltic concrete predominates
but there are many fine examples of
asphaltic macadam or penetration"
roads and highways resurfaced with
liquid asphalt carpet coats. Instead
of this advanced road construction
being confined to big cities and their
vicinity it is found that small towns
are laying the best types of asphaltic
concrete roadways and not infre-
quently on a cement concrete base.

THE WORLDS RECORD IN CORN

To tae Editor Ocala Banner:
In your issue Of June 18th, you have
an editorial paragraph regarding Mr..
I, C. Putnam's expectations of his
corn crop, if weather conditions are
Favorable for the balance of the sea-
son, of a yield of three hundred and
seventy-two bushels of corn ca his
experimental fve-acre tract
Below is the worlds record for the
yield OF one acre of corn, raised by
Captain Drake of Marlborough cOun-
ty, S, c., in the early nineties-twO
hundred and ffty-four bushels and
fifty-five pounds-lacking but one
pound CT being even two hundred and
ffty-five bushels.
Captain Drake gave his sSa'tement
of how he went abotu to raise this
phenomenal crop. His land was fair

ured off the acre, and in Februar;
thoroughly pIowed and puavHrized the

seed, S66 pounds of kanitz, 200 pounds
Of animal bone, 400 pounds of nitrate
cof soda and 1065 pounds of manipu
Hated guano UPON the acre. He gave
the crop careful and intelligent cult
vation. With such an amount o
plant food the corn grew so rapidly
that in June Captain Drake felt con
strained to drive stakes ;along thu
corn rows and nan strips to them tt
prevent the tender stalks from beins

In November he hah disinteresteC

ocALA LOSES A CLOSE GAME TO
PALATkA

Before the le- gest crowd that has
witnessed ball game this season,
the Ocala amateur team lost in a
close and exciting game to the much
talked-of, cracker-jack, semi-profes-
sional Palatka team by the score of
) to 3.
The Palatka team came over on the
Ocala Northern excursion, reaching
Ocala about one o'clock, and after
resting up, Manager Kennerly had his
ball tossers on the diamond at three
O'clock, and IL practice it was seen
that if Ocala was to win she would
have TO put up the best game that she
ever played, for the Palatka boys
practiced we'll together.
The afternoon was very warm and
when both teams finished their prac-
tice they were thoroughly warmed
up"
The game started with Palatka at
the bat. Bundy hit to Dewey, who
made pretty stop, but his throw to
first was bad, and the runner was

inning. With the bases full and none

scores in the eighth.
For Ocala Haley did the pitching
and, with jam-up ball playing, he
would have won the game, he having
thirteen strike-outs to his credit, with
only FIVE to the credit of Hawkins.
Palatka got nine hits to Ocala's
eight, while Ocala made four errors
as against two for the visitors.
Altogether Ocala put up stiff
game for the hired bunch" and they
showed up, with few exceptions as
good as Palatka.
