MAJESTIC
VICTORY

The greatest fiva-reel war feature
that was ever made, a story of a
blood curdling plot TO blow up the
American feet int a Cuban harbor.
A woman in the case detects the
plot and tells it to the navy avia-
tor, who does a 100-mile flight,
reaching the feet just in time.
Endorsed by the officials of the navy
thousands of men in
land and fort battles, exploding
harbor mines, hundreds of cannon,
battleships, hydroplanes, gunboats
and monitors in action doing a spec
tacular naval battle.

JEWETT-FUTCH CON.
TR0VERSY NOT YET SETTLED

Trouble has broken out afresh in
the matter of the dispute between
JeWett & Moore and l.. NJ. Futch
relative to the latters building OPP
erations, and this morning Messrs
Jewett and Moore tore down a por-
ton of the brick wall which had
been placed on their land. Work.
men are today replacing the wall
and rushing work on the building.
Whether it will be again torn down
remains to be see,
Mr.. Kelsey BIaAton, attorney for
Jewett & Moore, states that he
wired today to Judge Whitney, ask
ing him to order operations suspend
ed until the Judge could make per-
sonal investigation or appoint a
special master to make such an in
vestigation. "We have always Of
fered," said Mr.. Blanton, to nego-
tiate with Mr.. Futch for the con-
struction Of party stairway upon
the basis of the space and burden
of the stairway and upper structure
being equally distributed between
the property of the respective par
ties. If Jewett and Moore act upon
my advice they will protect their
by every available means.
Mr.. j. F. Townsend, of the firm
erecting the building, stated to the
Telegram that the walls damaged by
Messrs. Jewett & Moore would be
replaced. 1--WE are pro-
ceeding in accordance with the rul-
ing of the court declared Mr..
Townsend, "and expect to complete
the building on that basis.
And thus the matter rests at this
hour.

LAST NIGHT OF POPULAR COM
PANY AT THE AUDITORIUM

What Happened to Jones" was
splendidly put on by the Norman
Field players last night. Mr.. Field
is an actor who has the easy stage
presence that makes him a favorite
at once and in the leading roles he
is always all that could be desired
His charming wife is also finished
actress and with the remainder of
the company it is little wonder they
are favorites wherever they go.
They will be seen tonight in the
Girl Behind the Counter" and
large audience will witness this
play.

The sheriff who came down from
Elgin, ILL.,, to look into the case of
Herman Cranston, who became in
sane and has been held here several
days for safety, arrived here last
night, and took charge of Cranston,
accompanying him to Frostproof,
where he has been living, for the
purpose of collecting his effects, ETC.
Cranston was greatly improved by
the time the sheriff arrived, and
seemed quite rational yesterday. He
was pleased to see the sheriff, with
whom he was we'll acquainted, but
objected considerably to going back
to Illinois, declaring he does not
want to leave Florida-which shows
the gentleman to be pretty sensible
after all.

the person OF mpa basketball
players, the game In night result
ing in the score of 81 to 14-no
| in Lakeland's favor.
Just how it happened, we refer
you to five or more young men who
reside hereabouts. These young
men will gladly furnish to parties
SO desiring any information on bas-
ketball. They can give you full d.
rections for any emergency that
may arise during a game.
Their only request is that no
questions be asked after a game.
The execution referred to took
place about s o'clock last evening.
The only witnesses present were
los people from Lakeland and as
many more from Tampa.
These, too, refuse to talk till they
have seen their lawyer.
In the meantime, we give for the
benefit of our readers, few facts
cleaned here and there.
The game was the second of
series between Tampa and Lakeland
for the State championship. The
first was won by Lakeland on her
own court, hence this last game only
evens the series. Immediately fol-
lowing the game last night, Lake
lands manager challenged Tampa's
manager for the third and deciding
game. Tampa refused the chal-
lenge, except on condition that the
game be called in the Tampa Y. NJ.
G.. A.
Lakeland would not grant this
concession, but offered to toss the
coin to see where the game would
be played. Again Tampa refused.
The Tampa team has lost three
high school games this year, and
one of these was to lakeland. Lake
land high school basketball team
has lost one game. ana that to Tam
pa, and has defeated a team that
has in turn defeated Tampa. SO if

was defeated fairly and sQuarely
last night. Our boys, though han
dicapped by new and slick floor,
gas lights and new ball, put up a
great game.
The odds were against Lakeland |
in this game, and many felt that
the game would be lost. He who
admits defeat before the game is the
worst defeated of all, but instead

 An established system of farming cannot be changed over night. The following recom- mendations are made in an eff fort to suggest a means to make the best of the situation for the immediate present. This neces- sitates making the living at home.
 FOR THE LAND OWNER. The owner should adopt a system similar to the one out lined. He should plant on his own account the following crops :: 5 acres of oats for each horse on the farm.
 6 to 8 acres of corn for each horse on the farm.
 1 acre of rye or wheat or oats for grazing purposes for each horse on the farm.
 1 acre of sweet potatoes for home supply and with which to furnish seed potatoes for ten- ants and others.
 2 acres of peanuts, 2 acres of early cowpeas, and 2 acres of Dwarf Essex rape with oats fol hog pasture.
 l acre of sorghum in drill half to be used for syrup anc half for stock feed
 All of the land should be seeded to cowpeas or soybeans and as soon as the oats are har vested. All corn land should have cowpeas planted in tht rows with the corn very early il the season.
 The landlord should keep suffi cient hogs to supply every fam fly on the place.
 Each landlord should keep suf ficient cattle to furnish cows fo each family on theplace. (Thes to be bought by the tenant a
