THE BIG FURNITURE SALE A BIG
SUCCESS

The Theus and 2achry sale of the
Tolar and Mclaughlin stock of furni-
ture is pronounced the biggest sue
cess of the kind ever before pulled
off in Ocala.
Before 10 o'clock the store was
crowded, and in less than an hour
one thousand dollars had found their
way into the cashiers hands.
The crowds continued all day, and
Mr.. Theus, who is conducting the sale,
says that if the sale continues as it
began, the stock will be exhausted in
less than half the number of days the
sale is advertised to continue.
Parties who attended the sale yes
terday were delighted.
Those in need of new, elegant fur
nitsre, almost at their own price, are
invited to attend the sale today.
If the prices are not inviting they
need not buy, but attend the sale any,

Mr.. DEWEY'S FARM

Mr.. ]. r. Dewey, proprietor of the
well known Merchants Cafe, has
bought a farm of fourteen acres out
ON the Silver Springs hard road, ana
is beginning a career that promises
to end something like that of Mr.
Child's. of "Child's Restaurant fame.
Mr.. Dewey will soon have one thou
sand white leghorn chickens, and
will then supply his restaurant with
fresh eggs from his own farm.
Mr.. Burden. formerly manager OF
the Ivy Poultry Farm, will have the
management of it.
Besides the chickens, Mr.. Dewey
has a number of fine Jersey COWS,
and will supply his table with tresh
Jersey milk and butter and butter
milk. Mr.. Dewey will also have his
table supplied with all the fresh veg
etables of the seasons.
This ought to give his restaurant a
statewide reputation.
We had the pleasure of seeing MS
first shipment of Leghorn fowls, and
they looked more like Bryan's doves
Of peace" than chickens. They were
innocent little beauties.
Everything that Mr.. Dewey touch
es turns to gold. SO it goes without
saving that his farm will soon have
recognition, name and a record at
our county fairs.

BELGIANS CHECKED
GERMAN PLAN To
INVADE BRITAIN
Unexpected StubbOrneSS of De-
fenSe Delays Scheme But
Kaiser Still Hopes to Rush
Troops Across Channel.
BY FREDERICK WERNER.

BERLIN. via Amsterdam Sept. s.
That the grand campaign of Germany,
az originally planned against the allies,
included the invasion of England as
we'll as the seizure of Paris, has just
come to light Germanys intentions
have not yet been abandoned, but
there have been Unforeseen checks,
notable the unexpected strength of
the Russian invasion and the setback
given in Belgium.
The primary object Of Germany in
the present war was to crush France.
No secret could be made Of this. The
German general staff, at the outbreak
of the war, figured that Paris could
be reached in six to eight weeks.
Basing their calculations upon the
siege of 1870 and the present day
strength of German armament it was
figured that the French capital could
not be able TO hold out for any great
length of time.
Would Join With Holland.
In the meantime the German armies
were to overrun northern France and
Belgium, occupying Antwerp, Dunkirk,
BoulOgne and Calais. All Of Belgium
and the northeast coast Of France
would then be included in a great
German federation into which Holland
would be invited.
Supposing that Germany had been
successful in the acquisition Of this
territory Holland would naturally con-
sent TO ally herself with Germany.
Great Krupp long range guns built
to carry 16 miles, would then be placed
along the English channel coast and
under their protection German fleets
OF battleships, cruisers, torpedo boats
and destrOyers would then be mo-
bilized along the coast. Under the
protection OF fleets both ends of the
straits Of Dover would be thickly
mined.
The channel at Dover is only p
miles wide. According to the Ger
man program a mighty fleet Of trans
ports, flanked and protected by war
fleets with a double guard of mines
would then dash TO the English coast,
quilting an ambition which has lain
dormant since Napoleon planned his
invasion.
Dirigible balloons and aeroplanes
were expectede 70 play an important
part in the campaign Of invasion.
Belgians Check Plan.
But the German general staff failed
to fOresee the StubbOrnnesS Of the
Belgium forts nor the strength Of the
Russian invasion nor the resisting
qualities of the allied army IN France.
Just how far the general staff has
modified it's original program is infor-
nation which they are keeping TO
themselves.
The German war office announced
today that a full investigation Of the
charges made against the German sol
diers in connection with the invasion
OF Belgium had been ordered. Rep
resentatives Of two countries, prob
ably Italy and Holland, viii be asked
to become members Of a committe Of
three, the third being a representative
Of this country.
The German government, il is said.
| feels that the distribution of reports
of atrocities through sources favorable
TO the allies requires a stronger an
swer than can be given through any
official statement

MOVE CAPITAL FROM
PARIS TO BORDEAUX
Cabinet and Deputies Take
Archives in Flight From City
Soon to be BeSieged by
KaiSer'S Army.
BULLETIN.

PARIS, Sept. 3.-The French
center still holds. Every attempt
of the Germans to break through
has been checked.
This was the assertion made
today by Gen. Gallieni, military
governor of Paris, after he had
received official reports from the
front.
The general has taken up his
quarters at the war office where
he is assisted by attaches left be-
hind when the cabinet departed
for Bordeaux.
"The military operations are
regarded without apprehension, "
he said. "As long as the German
center is held in check the right
cannot continue to advance with
out the risk of being cut off from
the main army.
"The Germans are pressed for
time and doubtless will be obliged
to take great risks however. We
feel that the odds are against
them in the next decisive battle
which the allies look forward to
with confidence. " A number of
wounded French officers returning
from the front praised the valor
of the Germans and declared that
reports of the invaders king being
wounded on the battlefield were
untrue.
"Those stories are false" said
one. "On the contrary, French
wounded are taken to German
ambulanceS and we'll cared for by
German surgeons. If any murders
have been committed the German
medical corps must not be held
responsible. p"
Gen. Gallieni issued a proclaim
alton at noon today saying:
81 have received a mandate to
defend Paris against the invaders.
| will do so up to the last extrem-
Iitv."
