THE RETIRING REGISTRAR

The Palatka News pays the follow
ing deserved tribute to Mr.. Chubb:
Henry S. Chubb, the retiring reg
istrar of the United States land office
in Florida, will probably move from
his old Office headquarters in Gaines
vile to his splendid grove properties
in Orange county, where he will take
up the life of a private citizen among
neighbors with whom he has always
stood high-just as he stood officially
during all the years of his admins
tration of the affairs of the land of
fee. Mr.. Chubb as an official was a
man who looked carefully after the
public interests, and in the admins
tration of the land office he has a re-
cord for efficiency that is matter of
pride to the people of Florida. He is
the undisputed leader of the republi-
can party in this state, and should his
party come back into power it is more
than likely that Mr.. Chubb will be
looked to more than to any other one
man for the bestowal of party patron
age in this state"

low citizen, Mr.. Louis H. Chazal, and
it was our desire to credit him with
it at the time, but he modestly de-
clined. The compliments received for
it, however, make US feel that it is
right to disclose the authors name
without his permission. Mr.. Chazal,
after several years work on the Co
lumbia S. c., State, one of the most
carefully edited papers in the South,
has left the newspaper profession
for the real estate business. It's the
Stars opinion, however, that he be-
longs in journalism and should return
to it. He has high ideals, knows news
when he sees it. and can express him
self in correct and concise English.
Fe might not make as much money in
the newspaper business but that is
where he belongs.

never seen why the Americans are

LAST RESPECTS
TO GENERAL LONG

The funeral of Gen. Henry w.
Long at Martel Sunday was one of
the most largely attended ever seen
in this part of the state. All the
neighbors of the deceased were pres
ent, with a large delegation from
Ocala and many from all over the
county, for the good old man was
well known and much beloved.
Present in force were the members
of the st. Johns Methodist church
and Sunday school and Friendship
Lodge F. & A NJ, of all of which he
was an honored and useful member
for many years. In attendance from
other parts of the county were mem
bers of the Ocala lodges Royal Arch,
f. & A. NJ. and the Eastern Star, a
strong delegation from John M. Mar
tin Camp Sons of Confederate Vet
Grams, including General Longs COM
rades, Colonel Martin and Mr.. F. E..
Harris, besides Commander Harriss,
Adjutant Cary and others. A num-
Der of Confederate veterans were in
attendance, all in fact that knew of
the funeral and could reach Martel
in time.
The services began in the church,
which was filed to overlooking with
many standing outside. Presiding
Elder Bridges officiated and preach
ed sermon telling of the well-spent
life of the departed and the precious
treasure in memory he left behind.
After the sermon, all the neighbors
came forward and passed the casket
for parting look at the features of
their honored friend. Then the Mas
ons, under the direction of Worship
full Master G. Y. Miller of Friendship
Lodge, took charge, escorted the re-
mains to their last resting place and
laid them away with the imposing
ceremonies of their great order.
The funeral arrangements were in
personal charge of Mr.. D. E. McIver,
a fellow Mason and friend for many
years of General Long.
So passes to his reward a man
whose life has been honorable and
useful to himself, his relatives and
friends and all the state of Florida.

ocALA SCHOOLS OPEN AGAIN

After enjoying the Christmas holt
days, the teachers and pupils of the
Ocala schools returned this morning
to their studies. All the teachers and
nearly all the scholars answered the
call to books, the places of the few
absentees being more than filled by
several recruits.
What made the occasion specially
notable was that the primary school
and the North Ocala school were able
to open in their own buildings, the
former not having been repaired and
the latter not completed when the
fall term opened.
Although they have been comfort
ably and commodiously quartered in
the high school basement, the teach
ers and pupils of the primary school
felt almost like they had escaped
from prison when they went into
their own building, which has been
so greatly enlarged and improved
that it is better than new. The i'm
provement consists in four big rooms,
two up and two down stairs, various
cloak rooms and closets to go with
them, neat and roomy Office for the
superintendent, basement room for
the furnace and boiler that furnish
the heat, putting in windows on the
south side, raising the roof and a
general betterment of the building in
light and good looks. The building
is large enough for some time to
come. The two new rooms up stairs,
one on the east and one on the west,
are unfinished and unoccupied, the
board having put them on to main
tain the symmetry of the building,
knowing they will be needed in few
years, but they are nicely fioored, and
we'll lighted, and will be a great help
now in various ways; one being as
play rooms in rainy weather. The
building is steamheated, has the new
scientific drinking fountains, has
plenty of light and ventilation and is
credit to the city. Miss Nellie
Stevens, the principal, is very proud
of the building in general and her
neat, new office in particular; also of
the fine record for health the primary
department is making Her assist
ants are Miss Fannie Clark, advanced
girls; beginners, Mrs. Evans and
Miss Marsh; advanced first boys
Miss Lula Griffin; second grade, Miss
Edith Griffin; third grade boys, Miss
Marcella Mclean; third grade girls

The North Ocala new schoolhouse
is a very neat building, set up on Z
hill, and a good advertisement for the
city. The teachers are Misses Ells
Mendenhall and Collie Clark, anc
they have some fifty or sixty young
sters in their charge. The house il
two stories, of which one is now suff
Gent, so the second has been left I'm
/ finished. The schoolhouse is hand
some building, and as soon as tn,
grounds are put in shape it will be
pride and pleasure not only to tn
section but the entire town. Be-
Seymour deserves the thanks of tn
school district for his public spirit il
giving it such nice lot.
