CHAMP CLARK IN OCALA

Speaker Clark and Mrs. Clark ar
rived in OcaIa yesterday evening on
the delayed Seaboard limited. They
were met at the station by Postmas-
ter Rogers, Mayor Robertson and a
number of other prominent citizens.
AS he stepped from the train Mr..
Clark was met and warmly greeted
by Senator Bryan and Governor
Trammell, both well known to him.
He and Mrs. Clark were then taken in
Mayor Robertson's auto to the Har-
rington.
In the evening, Mr.. Clark lectured
at the Temple. Owing to the conflict
ing reports about his appointment be-
ing called off, his audience was not as
large as it should have been, however,
a good audience was present, and all
greatly enjoyed the superb grafton.
Mr.. and Mrs. Clark left on, the early
train for Tampa. Mr.. Clark will lee
ture in Lakeland tonight and IN De-
Land tomorrow night.
During his brief stay, Mr.. Clark met
and cordially greeted number of our
prominent citizens, all of whom con-
sidered it an honor to meet him.

MR.. HALL FAvORs THE LINE

A Star man asked Mr.. r. S. Halls
opinion last evening on the proposed
bond issue for a railroad to Silver
Springs. Mr.. Hall said he was heart
lily in favor of the bond issue for the
purpose, and in his opinion, it would
pay reasonable interest on the in
vestment if properly managed direct
ly and indirectly its advantages and
benefits could scarcely be reckoned.
Mr.. Hall said he rather favored Col.
Rogers plan He said if the city
would call for 100000 bond issue,
right away, to build, equip and cleo
trify this road and rebuild the electric
light plant, he thought it would go
through like a house afre, and the
money would be available, enough for
the entire work and possibly before
the present electric light bonds could
be validated, this issue to repeal the
one now hung up in the courts and
push the whole proposition right thru.
Then, with competent board of
managers to handle the road, under a
competent superintendent, it would be
the best investment Ocala had ever
made and would soon put US on the
map and increase our business and
population to wonderful extent.

THE BIG TRUCK BURNED

The big freight truck of the Ocala
Company was prac-
tically destroyed by fire at 8 o'clock
this morning on the Silver Springs
boulevard opposite the convict farm.
Mr.. Claude Haycraft was driving the
truck in from the Springs, loaded with
valuable merchandise. The gasoline
pipe, leading from tank to engine
broke off or sprung a big leak and the
stream of gasoline ran down over the
engine and took fire. So rapid was
the flames and so great the heat that
the men had to jump to keep from be-
ing burned.
Fortunately, there was a high tier
of solid freight, cans of lard and to-
matoes, piled next the motor and
these kept the flames from the other
and more valuable merchandise, while
the crew, working rapidly, removed
and saved all of the other freight
The entire wood work and front
tires of the machine was totally de.
stroyed. It is thought the motor anc
most of the other iron work can be
used in rebuilding the truck, but the
loss will be quite extensive.
A telephone message to the city
brought the chemical engine from
the fair grounds, Hamp Chambers
chief of the fire department, making :
record run out to the fire, but arrived
too late to do much good, the distance
being almost four miles and the della.

city.
The company will use the big Buicl
roadster with the trailer and doubl
mule teams and will deliver all freigh
from the boat on schedule till tn
truck can again be put into commits
sion, so that there will be no Interrupt
ton whatever in the freight servic
between Jacksonville and Ocala vi
the boat and truck line.

TOWN ON THE SPANISH TRAIL

Ocala and Marion county have
again strengthened their position on
the good roads map. Yesterday aft
ernoon Secretary Rooney received a
telegram announcing that a good
roads scout car was en- route from
Live Oak to Ocala.
Secretary Rooney with Messrs. L.
H. Chazal, R. L. Martin and Star
reporter started northward and met
the scout car at the city limits. They
found the scout with Mr.. J. w. Hill
man of Live Oak, a good roads boost
er of the first water. The scout, Mr..
Jas. A. Emmett, is looking over
route around the gulf from Mobile to
Tampa. Mr.. Emmett was delegated
by the business organizations of Mo-
bile to take this trip in the interest of
the route known as the "Old Spanish
TRAIL which is now laid out west of
New Orleans to the Pacific ocean, and
only remains to be hewn out from the
Crescent City through Louisiana, AL
ALBANIA and Florida.
Mr.. Emmett had not considered the
Tampa route, but when he arrived in
Live Oak and was informed of the
roads already built down along the
west coast through Suwannee, Taylor
and Alachua counties to Marion, he
was persuaded to take look at our
section.
He said that the Marion county
roads were the best he had struck
since leaving Mobile, and that any
proposed route could not afford to
overlook them in its plans. His scout
car was piloted through town and out
to the forks of the Dunnellon- Shady
road, where he babe goodbye to the
Ocalans. assuring them that he would
return in few days to take further
look az our roads and endeavor to or.
ganize concerted action on the part
of this section in the "Old Spanish
Trail through Central Florida.
1t is proposed to hold a meeting Of
good roads boosters at the Board OF
Trade room on Saturday to take uE
the proposition of forming a perma.
nent organization in connection with
the other towns through the center Oh
the state to bring the trail" this
way.
