THE MNTEOR WIJID.

Peck & Nash under Franklin Hall, have introduced a new article of burn ing fluid, which,. so far, has given the best satisfaction to the many who have used it. They say it is non-ex- pIosive and cheaper than any other article that is used for Illuminating purposes. They are agents also for the sale of new style of fluid lamp, which has no equal, it is believed, in the market. Its superior advantages tare manifest, at first sight and are confirmed every day by use.

OCAlA'S lEAllNG
SUMMER INDUSTRY
BEST OUTLOOK FOR MANY SEA
SONS FOR BASEBALL

A Star reporter accompanied Man-
ager Hunter to the ball park yester-
day afternoon, and found a dozen or
more Of our young champions busily
at practice.
It was pleasant to note the big i'm
provement of the diamond. 1t Is, the
apple of Mr.. Hunters eye, and he is
always having some improvement
made. IL he sees bump or a dip he
isn't happy till the one is leveled or
the other filed: If they could put it
on legs, the diamond would. make q
pretty good billiard table. for the
Titans.
When the grandstand is completed,
Ocala will be the baseball equal of
any town in Florida, and the superior
of most of them.
The reporter was glad to see the
street force at work on South. Magno-
liza. It's already a middling good
street to walk on, but it is so full of
holes that one would have to use a
corkscrew for q penstaR in drawing a
map of the course an auto must fol-
low to make the trip without break
ing its springs. Even with the utmost
care, people going that way receive
occasional bumps that nearly drive
the tops OF their spinal columns thru
their hats. Between hospital patients
and baseball fans, South Magnolia
needs smooth roadway.
A game with Citra is scheduled fo1
tomorrow afternoon. The Star is in
formed that the bush leaguers have
been in constant training, running
down rabbits for speed and splitting
rails to give their throwing muscles
the proper swing. They viii be there
with the goods, and the game will de-
serve d big crowd.

There were about so title people
present at the convention, and in
their exchange of ideas, methods and
record systems, the gathering result
ed in much good to the craft.
The next session will be held in
Arcadia.

DERNBURG IS
A DERNPHOOL
UTTERANCES OF THE EX-COL-
ONIAL SECRETARY ARE
UNAUTHORIZED

London, May 5.-Dr. Bernhard
Dernburg's letter read at a mass
meeting in Portland, Me-, on April
II, in which the former German col
onial secretary said that Germany
would evacuate the occupied portions
of France and Belgium only on con-
dition that the seas be freed and that
Germany be given freedom to expand
beyond her frontiers in Europe, has
caused considerable discussion in the
German newspapers, says a dispatch
from Amsterdam to Reuters Tele-
graph Company.
The Post Of Berlin says the letter
supplies "full and final proof Of DIR.
Dernburg's incapacity as a states
man." and characterizes his remarks
as "fine piece of political foolery."
Count Ernst Reventlow, writing in
the, Deutsche Taeeszeitung. said:
att is impossible that DR.. Dern-
burg, without direct instructions from
the imperial chancellor, should pub
licly announce I'm the United States
the German war aims. He should,
without delay, furnish a correction,
and we cannot doubt that the German
government promptly will take all
steps TO obtain an explanation"
The Vorwarts considers that DIR.
Dernbnrg said nething which was
not justified by the imperial chancel-
lor's speech at the beginning Of the
war, when DIR. Won Bethmann-H -Holweg
said that Germany wished to wage
only a defensive war.
The Dortmund Orbeiter Zeitung
has been placed under a preventive
censorship for attacking those who
favor the annexation of Belgium.

FRENcHMAN's TRIBUTE
TO FLORIDA
Savant Gives High Praise to Soil of
the State

Washington, May 4.-"Florida has
the finest soil of any state in this
country" said DR.. Fl. A. Damour, the
head of Paris agricultural institu-
tion. 81 have just completed study
of the Florida pine forests and the
different kinds Of soil in that state.
There is no crop that cannot be grown
in Florida, and while fertilization and
cultivation of course, will improve
any virgin soil. Florida land is less
in need Of it than the soil of other
states.
'The pine forests Of Florida are
similar to some in France. There are
vast forests of pine trees in some
sections of France. The French peo-
pie cultivate more closely and with
more care than do the Americans.
Theer is a law in France prohibiting
the cutting of pine tree until it In
20 years old. AS soon as it ceases TO
produce it is cut and q new tree
planted IN its place. In this manner
reforestation is continuous. The
French methods of forestation are the
best in the world, I believe. Here in
America pine trees are killed in q
few years when they could be saved
for great many years. The begin

(AssOciated Press)

London, May 5.-Nine trawlers

battle. 300 Austrians were captur-
ed by Russians. The Russian war Of
fee admits that the Germans and
Austrians have succeeded in cross
ing the Dunajec in western Galicia,
but says they were prevented from
making further advances.
British officials admit a readjust-
nnent of their lines in Flanders, with
the consequent abandonment Of sew
eral positions east of Ypres. This
marks the advantages won by the
Germans IN their victory between
Ypres and Dixmude.

BULLETIN
Berlin; May 6-The German official

east of Pont-a-Mousson was repulsed
with heavy loss yesterday.
The statement claims the Russians

gion.
TURKS WERE TROUNCED
London, May 5-The Russians have
had at least a partial revenge for
their defeat in western Galicia by
badly beating the Turks who had in
vaded Persia.
The Turkish defeat took place In
a three days battle near the frontier
and Petrograd reports that the Rus
SLAMS inflicted heavy losses. IF the
success has been followed up, military
observers declare that Persia should
