There should be a recepticle for
all liquid wastes such as dish-wa-

white people, on the other hand, In
stead Of observing this spirit with the
forbearance that the dignity Of their
race demands, have resented it and
often shown their resentment in the
most unworthy ways. IF Willard and
all other white fstic champions viii
draw the color line they may be for
given for some of the depravity they
have shown in the past, but such men
as Jeffries who deliberately create
situations that cause and add to fric-
ton between the races, are enemies
of both. From the day Of his triumph
at Reno, it was only matter Of
time before Johnson should meet his
Waterloo, as the chief concern Of fstic
circles ever since has been the train
ing of white hopes to knock him out
Increasing age and dissipation told OF
him, and he was not near as strong
and active as when he faced Jeffries
nevertheless, he gave Willard abou
all he could do.

At the prize drawing at the Tenn
pie theater last night, the editor Of
the Star won a corset As the said
editor has no use whatever for a cor
set without anything in it. and as he
has tried all day to swap it for a
pocketknife, a hat or some other
available article, he offers it free,
gratis, to any lady who will come and
take it off his editorial table, where
it is in his way, and causes visitors to
make irrelevant remarks. Seems to
the editor, so far as he can Judge
with his unaided eye, that said cor
set was built for a girl person Of
about fifteen summers-can't say how
many winters, for we didp't have any
in Florida until this year. However,
any lady who takes the corset, If it
doesn't fit, can swap it for one of the
right size at any drygoods store that
advertises in the Star. Ed Bennett.

containing the winning number into

perfectly good corset, and Ed knows

While the Star has nothing but con-
tempt for Jess Willard, as big
bruiser, a representative of a calling
utterly useless to humanity, and a
further contempt for him for entering
the arena against negro, it must
concede that in his way he has done
society service in putting Jack
johnson into the discard. The Star
has never approved of the prejudice
against johnson, who has behaved
from first to last as big, husky
darby might be expected to behave

women who associated with him, fiat

REFORM SCHOOL
NEEDS REFORMATION

The Tampa Times, in its issue Of
Saturday, prints genuine broadside
at the management of the state re-
form school at Mariana. 1t is evil
dent that there has been not only
gross Encouragement but downright
crime in the way this institution. has
been carried on. The charges pre-
sented by the Times are summed up
as follows:
"Forner inmates charge the most
revolving practices and abuses; that
girls sent to the home were debauch-
ed by employees of the state who had
charge of the home; that boy inmates
were compelled to do manual labor IN
fields owned by private parties; that
enormities were practiced against the
inmates, one boy, it is alleged, being
sent to his home at Key West suffer
ing from vile and inconceivable prac-
tees it is alleged he was compelled to
submit to at the hands of an en-
ploye of the board; that incurable and
filthy diseases have been contracted
! by inmates; that they are improperly
lclothed; taught almost nothing; that
filth and ignorance prevails; that fol
a long time the institution has done
practically nothing to reform; much
to degrade"
So far from being reform school
it has been juvenile convict camp
I with worse treatment for the inmates
] than has been given adult convicts il
! this state for twenty years. The re
form school scandal is the one blot OF
!, Governor Trammell's administration
, and the Star regrets to see that he i
not trying to wipe it off as siren
uously as he should. The legislator
should remove the institution to tn
+ vicinity of one of the large cities
where it could be in the full glare o
: publicity all the time, and put respon
sible men, under heavy bond, i
charge.

BIG DAY AT BLITcHToN

Mr. j. D. Rooney, who represented
the Star at Blitchton Sunday, gives
the following comprehensive report of
the exercises:
Sunday was an ideal day and it
seemed as though Heaven wished to
add final approval to the Easter Rally
Day exercise planned and so splendid
~ carried out at the Baptist church at
Blitchton.
Your correspondent found house
well filed with bright, intelligent,
happy young people satisfied and pros
porous citizens of that excellent COM

1t is gratifying to observe Gods
handiwork in such staunch yeomanry
as the citizens of this community are.

good homes, with fine boys and girls
I growing up to be the future guardians
Of the success of our county and state.
It makes the heart of father glad
TO mix and co-mingle with these
young people who are the very life
of that part of our county.
The program was one of interest
from its opening to its close. Rev.
Law, who was in charge carried it
forward with snap and energy that
gave life and zest from start to finish.
The children executed their parts in a
manner that proved their hearts
were in the work and that they were
receiving spiritual guidance and NOR
al training that will lead their young
lives out in the great roadway OF

; evil influence they may meet.
The sweet perfumes of Christ's Eas.

THE LOOP ROUTE IS THE BEST

Tampa, April 3.-Officers and a
board of directors were elected yes
terday afternoon at a meeting Of the
stockholders of the Tampa. Atlantic
and Gulf Railroad Company, held in
the Offices of the Walker Engineering
Corporation Of this city.
officers chosen are: President, W.
J. Epperson, Bronson, Fla; first vice
president, Henry C. Long, Boston,
Mass; second vice president and as
sistant secretary, Edward Walker,
Tampa; secretary and treasurer, I.
c. McEachin, Meredith, Fla. The
board of directors includes these gen
tlemen and E. R. Lacy of Mt. Vernon,
n. Y, and Francis H. Howard, of De-
troit and Tampa.
The company was formed about
year ago and its object is to build a
railroad across the peninsula of Flor
ida to point on the east coast, thru
the new country being developed by
drainage of the Everglades. 1t was
said at the offices of the company that
there was no statement to be made al
| this time concerning the plans of the
company, save that the road would be
built Times-Union, April 4th.
/ The Star is not favorably impressed
with the future possibilities of thi:
road, if we understand its proposed
route, as a financial proposition
From Tampa southeasterly to Lake
| Okeechobee, and then east to the At
lantic ocean, is not very promising
country for a railroad, excepting tn
section contiguous to Tampa and tina
section is now well supplied with rail
road facilities. On the extreme cas-
coast side there is merely the draine'
portion of the Everglades to draw
: from.
To our way of thinking, the road {
} be built by the Fort Myers, Marc
Bay & Miami Railroad offers by ia
f the most practical route and is NOR
attractive as an investment for car
, ital. This road will connect up tn
east and west coasts at the logics

state-and will give the tourist th

could only emanate from one who has
had that chosen relationship begotten
through kinship with the enunciation
of eternal truth. To listen you lost
sight of the lawyer, the prosecuting
attorney and felt the inspiration
borne of the principles of righteous
ness and eternal life.
Mr.. Rooney's short talk was sur
prise. Reckoned with only as man
to do with business affairs and boost
ing his town, county and state, his
address came as a ray of sunshine
from out of bank of clouds, as truly
he said, life had carried so much of
dependency and gloom, as the great
warfare raging in the human soul, was
one of two great spiritual powers
and as writ said, the evil spirit would
even deceive the very elect, and that
so oft in life we are overcome and
led by this deceptive influence away
from the good.
The honest felt talk of Mr.. Rawls,
an old Marion county boy, lifted you
up into plains of spiritual thought and
was feast to ones spiritual life,
coming as it did from one you readi-
| ly saw was in earnest and felt every
word spoken. A witness for his mas
ter such men are truly Gods messen-
gers.
The dinner was one, that looked al
from the viewpoint of what the day
and exercises should be, was one pre-.
pared by God fearing and God serv
ing women, wives of men who were
striving to prepare for their eterna
and final abode.
The old time gathering around 6
table filled with Gods blessings the re
ward of honest toll, to be eaten in {
spirit of reverence and satisfaction
belonging only to those who have tina
close and sweet relationship witt
Christ our Saviour. Such dinners ar
not as a picnic, but to be eaten wit

At 2:15 o'clock the meeting reas
sembled and Ocala's singers from tn
Baptist church rendered some swee
and touching selections followed b,
the quartet of young men, then a mos
excellent and impressive piece by Nj
Howard from Columbia College, LAX

having one of Gods true pilots t

splendid boys and daughter all Ell

and adding their part to the day
