THE FIRE THIS AFTERNOON

An alarm of fire came in about 2
O'Clock this afternoon from the third
ward. The fremen turned out and
found the fire to be in a two-story
frame house at the corner of South
9Th and Main streets, occupied by a
colored woman by the name of Pearl
Norwood, who was sick in bed. The
house is owned by DIR. Lee Hampton,
also colored, and is insured. The roof
was practically burned off before the
firemen arrived, the place having been
all ablaze before it was discovered.
The firemen soon put out the fire, but
the upper story and roof will have to
be rebuilt. The had to lay 1900 feet
of hose and had an hours hard work.
Part of the furniture in the second
story was burned and that in the
lower story was damaged somewhat
by water.

Snow FLORIDA TO MILLIONS

To bring a section Of Florida and
her floral charms to New York is
the object Of a unique exposition 70
be held in New York from December
4th to 18th, under the auspices of the
Florida Travel Company, 489-5th Ave-,
in cooperation with railroads, steam
ship companies and the Hotel and
Fruit Growers Associations of this
state.
New Workers have their flower and
land shows. which they patronize free
ly, but they have never yet had an
opportunity to see the products Of
semi-tropical Florida growing as they
do in their native environment. Hence
it will be a complete novelty for them
to see orange groves in fruit, and
this fact alone will insure a liberal
patronage.
Of course, the exhibition win not be
devoted wholly to the agricultural and
horticultural resources Of Florida. It
will reveal to the visitor the varied
delights of the state as place for
rest and recreation, and It viii no
doubt be the means Of Turing to Flori-
da a host Of tourists who are now
seeking new Fairgrounds.
It should be borne in mind that
New York is the starting point for
the great bulk o. American travel
ers., In winter especially the popu-
lation Of the metropolis is agument-
ed Dy thousands Of wealthy people
from the New England states and
the Middle West, and most Of these
can be reached through the medium

To THE PEOPLE
Of 0CALA

In an editorial in yesterdays issue
of the Ocala Star, the editor of that
paper, Mr.. Benjamin, referred to my
proposed visit to Tallahassee, in the
interest of certain amendments to our
present city charter. l print below
the two proposed amendments and
trust that the people will read them
carefully.
If there is any objection to these
two amendments, l certainly hope, that
those objecting viii state their reas-
ons in a direct communication to our
two representatives, Mr.. W T. Hen
derson, Lynne, Florida, and Mr.. w J.
Crosby, Citra, Florida. Unless the
people Of OcaIa respond to this invi-
tation and state their objections, in
writing. to these gentlemen, l shall
simply take it as an indication that
the people of Ocala do not seriously
object to the amendments as propos-
ed.
The Star editor claims to have talk
ed to at least one hundred people,
who have stated that they do not ap-
prove of these amendments. He
should get busy at once and furnish
this list of citizens to our two repre-
sentatives. Unless he does do so l
am satisfied that the representatives
will think he was joking.
