Of the recent visit to Tampa of
Scott M. Loftin, grand chancellor of
the Knights of Pythias of Florida,
the Tampa Times says:
Entirely pleased with Pythianism
as he has found it in this part of the
state, Grand Chancellor Scott M. Lof-
tin of the Florida grand lodge,
Knights of Pythias, left at noon today
for Lakeland, where he attends a
meeting of the lodge tonight.
Mr.. Loftin spoke highly of the en-
thusiasm which is evident in all Ply
THAN lodges in this section and highly
complimented T. Roy Young of this
city, district deputy grand chancellor,
who has put on four district meetings
recently, the last of which, at Sara

Pythianism in Florida, and particu-

BLINDNESS OF VIRTUE"

Egsanay has received letters from
ministers and educators from all over
the country, commencing the company
for producing the photoplay, 1.-THE
BLINDNESS of Virtue" which is one of
Essanay's great multiple reel features
which will be released through the ".
L. s. E.
The moral of this photoplay, writ
ten by Cosmo Hamilton, has been ap-
proved by all. The play, besides be-
ing a thrillingly interesting one,
teaches moral that educators have
been fighting to instruct in schools
and homes.
The story points out the danger
facing girls who are kept in ignorance
of the fundamental problems of life
and the necessity of instructing them
early In the problem of motherhood.
In the story two girls of a differ
ent station in life are brought up in
complete innocence. THROUGH lack of
knowledge one Of them falls, while
the other has a narrow escape. Her
parents realize her danger in the nick
of time and she is awakened to her
own relations toward life.
Edna Mayo, as the innocent minis
ter's daughter, brings out all the
sweetness and charm of this character
with unusual vividness and strongly
emphasizes the point of her danger
through ignorance.

MARIANNE AND
QUINCY AT PLAY
SPECIAL TO THE JOURNAL.

Mariana, Aug. 25.-Despite a
down-pour of rain in the fourth in
ming which delayed the game and made
the field very muddy, the first game
of the Mariana VS.. Quincy series
was played on the Mariana diamond
this afternoon, the score being FIVE to
three in favor of Quincy.
This series is watched with inter-
est as these two teams are perhaps
the fastest in West Florida and have
already played two series of games,
each of which resulted in a tie.

ton to Rules Of OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Make. Bitter Comment on Repre-
sentation Of Flag in Capitol Rotunda.

Des Moines, April 8. Byron z.
Ward, department commander OF the
G. A. r. of Iowa, yesterday issued q
general order to the srand army posts
of Iowa recommending that Memorial
day be observed Saturday, as May 80
falls on Sunday.
In calling attention to flag day,
June IA, the commander makes bitter
comment on the fact that a represen-
tation Of the American flag has oeen
placed in the floor of the basement OF
the state capitol building where per-
sons walk over it. Severai veterans
protested a year ago when the coiors
were placed in the floor. The execu-
tive council was requested to remove
the flag and substitute some other de-
sign. The flag has remained.
The general order in part follows:
This year Memorial day comes on
Sunday, and our rules and regulations
provide that in such cases the preced-
ing day shall be observed, Saturday
Nav 29. The object Of that rule is to
secure uniformity IN the observance OF
the day. But If the citizens in given

PROPERTY LIVES INCORRECT.

Business Houses At Iowa Fails Found
IS to Be irrssuiarly Located.
Special to Times Republican.
Iowa Falls, April 'S.-Engineers, con-
tractors, bank officials and property
owners were kept busy figuring and
measuring yesterday when workmen
were ready to commence work on the
new State Bank building. In locating
the lot lines, it was found that many
irregularities prevailed and that the
banks neighbors were over on bank
property. This Investigation also de-
veloped the fact that all the buildings
in the block were off the property
lines and that the buildings on the
corners encroached on the streets
several inches. AS permanent i'm
provements have been made that pre-
cludes everybody moving over to their
proper places, the matter will be COM
promised, and adjusted so that the
bank will get it's proper width and yet
permit the neighbors in the rest Of the
block to remain undisturbed.

unusually long and somewhat severe
there has been plenty OF moisture. The
snow in most orchards has been sew
eral feet deep, affording splendid pro-
lection for the roots of the trees.
The spring is practically normal ana
blossoming period will be delayed until
the latter part OF May, when there
will be very little danger Of frost.
If properly cared for with spraying
and pruning there will certainly be
bumper crop Of marketable apples.
The outlook for small fruit is equally
encouraging. Strawberries which have
been properly covered are absolutely
dormant. With the ground frozen
solid under the mulching we may be
nearly sure of late blooming. Rasp-
berries and blackberries Of standard
varieties have not been injured by
freezing. Even the terminal buds are
ready to put forth their leaves.
