AWFUL HARD FIGHT,
BUT IT'S OVER

A telegram from Tallahassee to
Mr.. J. NJ Meffert announces that the
legislature adjourned last night, after
passing all bills submitted by the
Ocala city council, and turning down
all private bills.
The people of the city have had a
fight to preserve their property in
tact, but they have won, thanks prin-
cipally to the bunch of public spirit
ed citizens who used their own time
without stint in the popular interest.

Whooping Cough

"When my daughter had whooping
cough she coughed so hard at one
time that she had hemorrhage of the
lungs. / was terribly alarmed about
her condition. Seeing Chamberlain
Cough Remedy so highly recon-
mended, / got her a bottle and it re-
lieved the cough at once. Before she
had finished two bottles of this rem
edy she was entirely well," writes

Not much has been heard of Mon
tenegro since the first few months of
the war. But the Montenegrins have
held their end up, have kept Aus
TRANS off their soil, twice invaded
Austria and made their getaway with
small loss, and ever since the war be-
gan have kept the Austrian garrison
at Cattaro shut up behind its de-
lenses.

Governor Trammell has appointed
S. ]. Hilburn of Palatka Judge of the
fourth judicial circuit, and E. Noble
Calhoun of st. Augustine state attor-
ney for the same circuit. Both gen
tlemen are well known in Ocala. Mr..
Calhoun is son of that eminent
lawyer, Benjamin P. Calhoun, one of
the leaders at the bar twenty-five
years ago, and is a brother of En-
sign Calhoun of the United States
navy, who married an OcaIa girl,
Miss Margaret Anderson.

hayed worse in East Prussia than the
Germans are accused of behaving IN
Belgium. Probably they did. Better
conduct, however, was expected OF
the Germans than of the Russians.
The lesson from both to America IS
that we should leave nothing undons
to keep invaders off our soil.

The Star can't understand why
some American papers poke fun at
the Russians. From all we can read
of the records they have done better
fighting in proportion to their
chances than the soldiers of any
other nation, and have gone further
into the enemy's country.

The Star doesn't know whether
there is city ordinance against the
open garbage can or box, but it
thinks our citizens should have pride
enough to procure one of these nee
essary conveniences. An open gar
bage receptacle does not give off a
pleasant odor these hot days.

M'PHEE AND LOW TO
Be FIRST ONE ARMED
ROPERS TO COMPETE

When Angus McPhee and Eben Low
mount their horses at Spreckels Park,
Kahnlui, Maui, on New Year 8 Day and
then take the signal to pun off their
roping match, it will be the first time
in the history of such an event where
two men, each minus an arm are con.
testants. A delving into the records
shows that twO-armed men have engag
ed in roPing matches on countless oc
casions, but nowhere. can a record be
found of match in which two one
armed men took part.
In 1907, at the great frontier events
held at Cheyenne, Wyoming, Angus Nc
Phee rOped Il steer on the rur and tied
his steer to tree with pinrope in
thirty-fire and 2-5 seconds, establish
ing world 5 record. McPhee at that
time was possessed Of his two arms.
In 1908, at wild west show at Hilo
Hawaii, Ebcn Low rOped his steer on
the run and tied his steer to a tree with
a pin-rop in one minute and six sec
fonds, establishing a worlds record for
steer rOping for a One-armed man.
The contest between McPhee and Low
will be exactly as pulled off in western
state frontier tournaments. 1t will be
for $3.50 a side, the winner to take

boys for years. 1t is a sign of good
spontaneously for the loser to give the
winner these articles, and while the los
er is not compelled to surrender his
equipment, the winner must take them

Both men say they win follow the
rules to the letter in the contest and

ners New Years Day

Maui is all ready for the big sporting

and the beginning of the new, and one
week hence the Valley Isle will be the
scene of much Publication, particularly
around Wailuku and Kahului, and fol.
lowers of the running, pacing and trot.
ting horses and those who enjoy fat
mems races; bike races, frontier day
st lrits and other athletic events are
promised a gala time.
Angus McPhce who is watching af
fairs on Maui has advised Eben Low
Of Honolulu that he is swamped already
with entries to the frontier day events,
seventeen ropers having sent in their
names as competitors while nine will
tackle the bronco busting acts and FIVE
will attempt to ride the untamed
steers. AS all of seventy-fve troopers
of the Fourth Gayalry are to journey to
Maui, il is expected the frontier events
will have a great many more contest
ants. Angus McPhee has arranged mat
tiers so that these events take place in
front of the grand stand, which will of
course, give every one q chance to
see the events at close angle.
MePhee also wrote that the Fourth
Cavalry band would leave for Kahului
next Thursday evening in the Claudine
and would play at the grand New
Year s Eve ball at Waikiki. They will
also play at the race track New Year 8
Day and at the ball game Sunday af.
ternoon. He also wrote that many of
the horses are showing a rare turn of
speed and that the races would prove
highly exciting. Silis is to be the Jap
anese representative in the Maui Hotel
Cup race at one and One-half miles and
Johnny Carroll has been engaged to
ride him. Johnny will also have the leg
up on other horses at the meet He
will leave for Maui in the Claudine
Monday evening.
Bookings by Honolulans who expect
to make the trip to Kahului for the
meet are coming in slowly at the Office
of the lnter-Island Steamship Co., but
it is expected that the list will be
greatly increased beginning Monday
morning. The fare for the round trip
will be ten dollars for the cabins, and
/ five dollars for the deck The Kilauea
will leave here Friday evening, Deccm
Der 81, at eleven clock and will arrive
at Kahului Saturday morning in plen-
ty of time for the race meet which is
to start at half.past nine o'clock at
Spreckels Park. The return trip will
be made from Kahului, Sunday evening
at eleven o clock, the steamer to arrive
in Honolulu Monday morning at about
! five clock.
A new road has been built from IA
hului to the entrance of the race track
and as it is within easy walking dis.
I lance, the going will be good.

MAY ATTEMPT HONOR SYSTEM.
New Naval Academy Head Gets Presi-
AeAH's Advice.

Washington, Sept. president
Wilson conferred today with Secre-
tary Daniels and Captain F. w Eberle,
the new superintendent of the Naval
Academy. at Annapolis. upon matters
relating to the administration OF the
academy. 1t is possible that as re-
suit of the conference superintendent
Eberie may attempt TO install the
honor system among the midshipmen
as means for permanently dispos-
ing of the so-called "gouging amid
the midshipmen. which resulted in
scandals and a naval board investiga-
ton the past summer.
The President spoke OF hts experience
es with the honor system, while a pro-
fessor OF Princeton University, and
his observa ton as to the manner in
which tt had been practiced at the
University of Virginia No official
statement was made as to whether the
system would be tried out at Annapolis.
