CLOSE HOLES
ON SHIPS SIDE

E. F. Hormig has returned from a
trip through several states and came
from Chicago Saturday night. While in
the city he visited the Eastland pier
and saw the overturned ship. TIE
bridges across the Chicago river have
been boarded up so that it is a difficult
matter to get even peep at the boat.
By some maneuvering he was able to
find a place to stand where he could
see. The holes on the Eile of the boat
are being closed up and divers are
working to seal the hatchways. The
water will then be pumped out and the
craft righted by big wrecking machines.
1t may be some time before this can
be done. The boat lies so near the
wharf that one can almost jump onto it
and it is not desired to slide the craft
into the river fearing there are bodies
beneath.
While away Mr.. Hormig visited
Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois. Indiana,
Ohio and Michigan. He reports plenty
of rain all along the way.
While in Chicago Engineer William
Il. Clark also saw theill fated East
land and observed the divers taking
bodies from the craft, He says the
worst and most pitiful sight of all was
to see the children brought to the sur
face. This was almost more than one
could bear.
Total Known Dead 800
While investigation of the capsizing
of the steamer Eastland rested over
Sunday, divers recovered three NOR G
bodies from the wreck, making the total
known dead 1913.

The Ocala evening star. [volume] (Ocala, Fla.) 1895-1943, 1915-08-02

The Tampa Times publishes a story
regarding the treatment of a convict,
Frank O'Conner, who, discharged from
the camps after serving a five year
sentence, gave a narrative Of dreadful
sufferings endured by him and which
he saw inflicted on others during his
incarceration. He gives a very bad
name to the camps at DeLeon Springs,
Tiger Bay and Pineta. 1t may be
that his story is only one of the yarns
told by discharged convicts, who are
almost always bitter in their denun-
Citations of their jailors, but it should
be investigated The state can't af-
ford to allow the convlcts to be i'll
treated, but if the stories of the con-
victs themselves were acted upon,
they would never receive any punish
ment for their crimes, and discipline
among them would be impossible
O'Conner, however, had praise for one
part of the penal system. The Times
says:
''His health was broken from eX-
posture and whippings, he claims, anC
he was sent to the state hospital farm
near Ocala. The treatment he receiv
ed at the farm from Captain Purvis
who is in charge, O'Conner describes
as the best he knew during his term
The prisoners there were humanel!
treated, we'll fed and given medica
| attention when If was needed III
speaks of Captain Purvis as the kind
est man he saw in charge of convict
and says the states hospital farm i
conducted in accordance with the con
Wet regulations, and the only piac
so conducted he saw during the fou
years and four months he wor
stripes"

UNCLE JOE WOULD
TELL ALL ABOUT 1T

Lakeland Telegram: But Menden-
hall has made a statement and it is
to be hoped the anxious exchanges
feel BETTER says the st. Petersburg
Times. We haven't seen any symp-
toms of anxiety on the subject in any
of our exchanges, but some of them,
including the Telegram, suggested
that if Nendenhall was as innocent as
he professed to be, it was strange that
he should shut up like a clam and
give no hint of the facts upon which
his innocence was based. Speaking
personally, if we were charged with
the crime laid at the door of Men
denhaIl and knew that we were as
absolutely innocent as Mendenhall
says that he is, we couldn't get the
full facts in the case to the public
through the press too soon, both for
our own relief and to get public sen
timent turned in the right direction.

Lesatina a Cabinet Leak.

Once years ago, when Daniel WeS-
ster was secretary Of state. there was
an important foreign matter up for dis
Cussion before the cabinet. and the Ut
most secrecy was of course maintain
ed. but the whole thing was blaz1uel
about in a few hours after the cabinet
meeting. So the president hastily sent
for his cabinet 70 talk over this leak
Each man had q different idea OF IL
Finally Mr. Webster arose, saying
You. gentlemen, 90 on with your dis
CusSiOn, and III be back IN a minute.
In a few minutes he returned and re
pcated every word that had been spo-
ken in the room IN his absence. He
explained that If by standing close 70
the door outside the cabinet room you
held your ear 10 It you could not dis
tinguish one ineligible word, but IL.
moving back from the door and a little
TO one side upon a certain spot in the
carpet, you kept an attentive ear every
word could be plainly heard rs though
whispered. Some enterprising caves
dropper had been experimenting with
the door and had found that upon that
exact spot there was some acoustic
property of the door or room that con
veyed the sound in perfect entirety.

TEMPLE ATTRACTIONS
Excellent Features for the Next Few
Monday Evenings

For the next five Monday evenings.
Nr. Bennett has secured Z series of
the most attractive features. That
for this evening is The Juggernaut,"
q iive-reel Vitagraph, with Earl Vii
Iiams and Anita Stewart in the lead
ing roles.
~Juggernaut" was compiled at con-
siderable expense, as may be realized
when one considers the train wreck
in one Of the scenes. In this fea-
ture, a locomotive and train of cars
takes a plunge off 4 broken bridge
into a river, a stunt that cost the Wit
agraph Co. a cool $4,000.
The succeeding features of the sue
.cceding four Monday nights viii be
as follows:
August 9th, Graustark, 6 reel Es-
sanay feature with Francis Y. Bush
man, Beverly Bayne, Bryant Wash
burn and Edna Mayo.
August 10th, The Carpet from Bag
dad, reel Selig feature with Kath-
lyn Williams.
August %, The Island of Regener-
alton. reel Vitagraph with Edith
Story and Antonio Moreno.
August 80, The Rosary, Z reel Selie
| feature, with Kathlyn Williams.

Good Taste.

l do not call taste n species of Judg-
ment, although it is actually that part
of Judgment whose objects are the
sublime. beautiful and affecting; be
cause this kind of judgment is not the
issue of reason and comparison, like a
mathematical inference, but IS perceiv-
ed instantaneously and Obtruded upon
the mind, like sweet and bitter upon
the sense, from which analogy 1t has
borrowed the name of taste. Good
taste is the inward light or intelligence
of universal beauty. True taste dis
covers with delight the image of ma
ture and pursues it with faithful pas
sion.-JameS Usher.

There are two classes of people who
are now doing the country great
harm. One is the calamity bowler,
who tries to make US believe we are
worse off than we are, and becoming
worse. The other is the prophet of
false prosperity. America is under
going a greater stress than at any
time since the lean days of 1884,
but it is much better off than any
other country in the world. All we
have to do is to work hard and utilize
our resources among ourselves. We
could live and be great if we never
sent a pound of goods abroad, or
never received a dollar from abroad.
We have no real need to be despond-
ent, though we have much need to be
careful.

Rise of the Sap.

The cause of the sap rising TO the
tops of trees and plants is one Of the
many mysterious operations OF nature
which cannot be definitely explained
What we call sap in trees is the water
which they draw for their nourishment
by means of their wide branching roots
in the soil and which by some beauti-
full mechanism is distilled and distrib-
uted through every part of the tree.
The water is absorbed into the plant
by delicate hairs attached to the roots
and ascends by capillary attraction or
a sort of root pressure remotely resem-
bling the circulation of the blood in the
human body. Even scientists. how
ever, cannot explain the mode Of nc
ton. and they find the furnishing OF
sap to the smallest plant or single
blade of grass as great mystery as
the more powerful current that per
vades the tallest tree.

It's the Stars opinion that South
Fourth street, east, should be opened
before the next school term com
mences. The present lay Of the land
makes the interruptions to this street
a series of dams, which make several
good-sized lakes in the vicinity of the
primary school after every heavy
rain. These lakes threaten the health
Of the school children all over the city,
as well as that of residents of the
locality. Under present conditions, it

ALWAYS THE AGGRESSOR

The st. Petersburg Times declares
that man is brute anyway and can
not be fooled or warded off by
clothes" SO be it. There is certainly
no excuse then in arousing the brute
by suggestive dress.-Leesburg Com

The Times denies that women
arouse the brutes by their dress. But
admitting that they do, the CONNER

ability of the Man. That is our quar-
rel with those who harp upon the
foibIes-even the sins-of Woman;
they are forever eXcusing the Man,
and yet the Man is always the ag-
gressor-St. Petersburg Times.

is possible for the basement Of the
primary school to be flooded by an
extra heavy rain 1t seems strange to
the Star that any Of the property
owners in this district oppose opening
the street. It would not only be bet
ter for the entire city, but for their
individual holdings. A good, we'll
graded street clear thru would add to
the good looks and good health Of
the entire town. The council should
also, if possible, extend South Third
street westward thru to the fair
grounds before the opening Of the
next Marion County Fair. Another
street to that part Of town is needed
ali the year, and particularly during
fair week.
