ATTENDED MINISTER'S MEET

Rev. Hass attended the Cleveland
Methodist Ministers association on
Monday last and brings back an inter-
esting report of an address by DR..
Briggs, Methodist missionary in In
dia, who spoke of the conditions con-
fronting the work of missions in that
land. In the course of the address,
DIR. Briggs spoke of the political un-
rest of that land with its rising tide
of nationalism, by means of which the
native people of that country are
looking forward to political indepen-
dence of England. DR.. Briggs as
serted that the situation has been
very intense during the last 10 years
and was very much so at present, but
declared that the time was not vet
ripe for the realization of the Indian
nationalist movement. 1t was his
opinion that loss of control of India
by England would be calamity now.

MANS CUPIDITY AND
WOMAN'S CONFIDENCE

Sanford furnishes another story IL
lusrative of the cupidity of man and
the over-trusting nature of woman.
The narrative is stold by dispatch
from DeLand, whittier the deceived
woman had gone to look for the man
who has departed with her worldly
goods. Tt says:
Searching for her missing busi-
ness partner, whose name she gave
as Jacob Hardink, Mrs. S. A. Chan
cellor arrived here on the noon train
from Sanford. She stated that she
and Hardink moved to Sanford about
month ago from Pensacola, with
the intention of opening up a res
taurant business. Friday afternoon
last, Hardink stated that he was go
ing to look at some garden land and
if he could find nothing to suit him
might later go to DeLand on a pros
recting tour. Not returning on
Friday or Saturday, and having left
no further clue as to his intentions.
Mrs. Chancellor states that she re-
ported the disappearance to the local
authorities, but no clue of the miss
ing man had been discovered so far.
She then decided to come to DeLand

Grand Jury Takes Up
Mendenhall Case Sept. Ia

Meeting of the grand jury IN
Pinellas county, which is of general
interest because of the Mendenhali
and other murder cases which are
to be investigated, will not take
place until September IA, according
to a statement made by Col. Thames
Palmer to the Tampa Tribune. The
general belief has been that the
grand jury would meet September
Z. This it would have done under
the statutes of 1911, Mr.. Palmer ex-
planned, but in passing the new act
OF 1915 the legislature made the
date of meeting the second Tuesday
instead of the first Tuesday in the
month, as formerly.
The Importance of the Menden-
hall case, is it thought, probably will
recommend it to be considered by
the grand jury prior to other MUIR
der cases, but this rests Largely with
State Attorney McMullen. After the
finding of an indictment against the
accused is such an Indictment Il
found, it may be several weeks or
even a month before Mendenhall is
actually placed on trial for his life
as the attorneys probably will de-
sire time to prepare their evidence
for submission in proper form. This
may put the Hendenhall trial the
middle of October.
Col. Palmer, wwho is chief coun
sci for theaccused, denied yesterday
the rumor that Mendenhall hat
made a very important statement tt
him on the occasion of his visit t.
Clearwater Wednesday. Only bust
ness matters were discussed an;
nothing was said about the case il
the brief interview. Hhe defend
ant is said to be still very ill, al
though he is not believed to be il
dangerous condition. The Grim
charged against Mendenhall is tn
murder of Mrs c. w. Eliot and Mis-
Susie Eliot on the Green Springs
road between Tampa and Slearwate
on the night of July 2, 1915.

BOBBY THE BUTLER
BY HARMONY WELLER.

The room was so dense with smoke
that the twelve heads surrounding
the dining table seemed to wayer
over the damask like so many ghosts
of bachelors. One of the twelve was
soon to take upon himself the yoke
of matrimony, and this was his fare

Out of the smoke the voice OF the
Honorable Bobs continued the trend
of an argument on social questions
started by Major Graham.

Clipped in Lord Henry, let's see the
kind Of a mess you will get yourself

FLORIDA W0MEN'S CLUBS HAVE
INFLUENCED MUCH LEGISLATION

Mrs. w. s. Jennings, wife Of ex-
Governor Jennings Of Florida, is
called by her duties as president of
the State Federation OF Woman's
Clubs into this section and her pres
ence here is causing the public to
recall some of the laws which the
federation has been instrumental In.
passing, this year.
The club women have of course
been called upon to exert that in
fiuence, and though they consider
themselves as handicapped without
the ballot, they at any rate exerted
a telling influence on the legislature.
persuading that body to see the club
women's argument in the passing Of
worked hardest for, are the compul-
cory education bill, which came out
of the discussions mangled to some
extent but still recognizable, the in
dustrial problem, anr the clean mar
riage law.
I'm the last named law, the women
failed in the face of all kinds of
argument, but are consoling them
selves to some extent with the bill!
in which the legislature set aside an
appropriation to be used to investi-
( gate the causes of epileptics.
The club women have right to
be proud of their securing the appro-
priation for the establishment and
maintenance of girls industrial
school. The boys institution will
be kept at Mariana and again the
club women are telling of their vic
tory. The cottage system suggest
ed through the federation was adopt
ed.
1t was through the help of the
club women too, that provision was
made for an investigation into thl
ways and means of establishing &
mothers pension.
The teaching of home economics
in the public schools was first advo
Gated by the club women as was al
SO provision for teaching the evil o.
alcohol and narcotics.

Leona talked, with American free

had been fighting her sympathy was
wonderful, and Honorable Bobs was
guilty of conversing longer than he
had any right to as a servant In the
house. Ii his blue blood flowed even
under the buffers uniform and IL Lee

straight into her own, no one was the

It did not occur to the American

that her interest was other than SYM
