ENGLISH BULLDOG WAKING UP

Says the Columbia, S. c., State:
The recruiting plans of Lord Derby
appear to have resulted in guarantee
ing an enlistment for the war, at
oen time or another, of practically
all of the able-bodied men of fighting
age in Great Britain. The enlarge
ment of the British army by at least
100000 and possibly, 1000, 900 men in
the next two or three years is assur-
ed and the necessity for conscription
has disappeared.
While the principle of voluntary
military service has been nobly vim
dicated, what is more important is
the demonstration Of the willingness
of the Anglo-Saxon race to fight to
a man when convinced of the neces-
sity. Taunts that Great Britain ex-
poets other men to do it's fighting are
robbed of their weight and the Teu-
tonic nations are put on notice that
from now on they have all the in
habitants of the British Isles to cope
with.
When the war began the Germans
and Austrians were all trained sol
6iers and when the order came from
Berlin they were prepared to move
as one man. The absence of similar
preparedness has cost the British
dearly, as it would cost any nation,
but it is at last established that the
ancient British spirit survives in Its
oaken robustness and it is simply a
matter of time for it to fruit in an
efficiency that will match the eff
cheney of any other earthly power,
IF anything that has occurred is
translatable into the writing Of de-
feat for the central powers it is the
marvellous and splendid success OF
Lord Derby's recruiting.

KNITTING MILL
HAS MANY ORDERS

The Ocala Knitting Mill has on its
books now from Cliff & Goodrich of
New York city, approximately $780,
900 worth of orders for knitted un-
derwear. The factory has recently
taken on several other large orders,
besides those mentioned in this paper,
among them one for 1000 dozen gar
rents, and two orders for $500 each,
which brings the tol of orders on
hand to about $4,000 dozen.
Despite the more or less demoraliz-
ed condition of labor, during Christ
mas week, Manager Booth was able
to ship seven cases, or two thousand
and fifty dozen garments this week,
and has been doing great deal of
night work.
Several more knitting machines are
coming in soon and work on the new
home of the factory is being pushed.
The force of nearly 40 people, which
will have to be increased very soon,
can now scarcely turn around in the
present quarters, with the huge piles
of finished goods, goods under pro-
cess of finishing, packing cases and
card board boxes.
The big new brick factory building
is now above the second or basement
floor, the window frames have been
set for the second story and work
is being pushed ahead, with plenty of
material on the ground. George
Giles, the builder and president of the
company, will have the building ready
to move into in very short time, and
when this is done with 10 or IL knit
ting machines running night and day
the big orders can be filled in hur-
ry.
One very gratifying feature of the
selling end of the business is that
more of the firms and several of them
in the south, who took one case re-
Gently, have now re-ordered two or
more cases and not single COM
plant has ever come in from the
goods. Several Savannah wholesale
houses have re-ordered, and one large
house, which sells great many goods
| through this section and has its
travelling mans headquarters in Ocala
will carry the line, so that the goods
as we predicted, after first being
shipped away will be shipped back to
the consumers here, through the To-
cal merchants.
Cliff & Goodrich, who handle the
mills output, exclusively, outside OF
Florida, have recently, we see by the
trade papers, taken on the entire out
put of another mill, one whose in
vestment is over million dollars
They are handling the output, ex-
clusively of over so knitting mills.
The Ocala mill is now getting a
number of orders from customers who
formerly bought from the Fort Val
ley, Ca, mill, when Manager Harry
Booth was in charge of that mill,
this of course is quite gratifying to
him.

ONLY ONE WAY BACK
FOR CHIEF BEAVERS

ATLANTA, Ca, Nov. 27-That the
only way for former Chief Beavers to
get back on the police force is to
make application for election as a
ratrolman, like any other man might
do, is intimated, Professionally in a
statement just made by Judge John +.
Pendleton of the Superior court, who
is hearing the case in which Beavers
has appealed from the action of the
police commission in reducing him
from chief to captain
Judge Pendleton expressed the opin-
ion that the filing of an application
was the only way he thought Beavers
could get back, in the event it was es
tablished that he entirely severed his
connection with the police department
when he resigned as captain.
Now, Beavers, it will be recalled, did
resign from the force when he was d =
NOTED to the captaincy, and has been
a private citizen ever since.

IS WHAT SOUTHERN.
RAILWAY WANTS US

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 81
Seeking to enlist in the service of it's
maintenance of way department young
men of technical training who were
born and bred in the South, the South
ern Railway company has maintained
during the past two years and has
now successfully established a school
of student apprentices enlisted from
graduates of the leading Southern uni
versities. This is in effect post grad
uate course in overalls with an assur-
ance of practical life opportunity to
those who succeed.
The man are carefully selected, af-
ter conference with university author
tiles, their standing with their fellow
students and general qualities of lead
ership displayed in their college life
being considered as well as their schol-
astic attachments and special consider
alton being given to men who wholly
1r in part paid their way through col
lege. The pay offered at the start is
comparatively small and the work in
wolves hardship and self-denial to an
extent that proves the stamina of those
who continue the course
The course has been ARRANGED to
take the student apprentice through
the daily duties of track work as fol-
lows LIST, as section laborer; End, as
laborer in yards and terminals; 3rd, as
laborer in extra gang; 4th, as as
sistant foreman on extra gangs, or in
yards; 5th, as relief or designated Sec

visor From assistant supervisor, the
student apprentice may be promoted
to supervisor, to assistant roadmaster,

ifications may justify and opportunity
may offer as vacancies occur
Southern railway now has in it's en-
ploy thirteen student apprentices, of
whom seven have been promoted to as
sistant supervisors, and it is source
Of pride to the management that, by
sticking to the course under the condi-
tions imposed and by winning the es-
TEEN of their fellow employees and
their superior officers, these student
apprentices have justified their en-
p!oyment as well as having assured
the success of their individual ca
reers.

WOMAN SUED FOR $4,000
OVER LOVE Of DEAD man

New York, Nov ga sensational
turn in the fight over the estate of the
late Harry P. Durham developed to-
day. He was one OF the heirs to the
vast fortune left by former Senator
Thomas S. Durham of New Jersey
Suit for 100000 damages, aIleg-
ing alienation of the affections of the
onetime clubman, has been instituted
by Mrs. Bertha Durham Myers, once
the wife of Durham. The papers name
Mrs. Benjamin CARL, member of the
exclusive North Port L. l., social col
ony, as defendant.
If the action is brought to trial it
will present an unusual spectacle. A
wife, married the second time, will be
pitted against the woman she claims
stole the love of her first husband,
now dead.
Great mystery was thrown about
the case by those involved today, but
Harry E. Shirk attorney for Mrs. Dun
ham-Myers, admitted the information
was correct, although refusing to give
details.
From other souces it was learned,
however, that Justice Benedict had
taken a hand in the matter, permit
ting service on Mrs. Carl by mail
To make doubly sure, process serv-
ers invaded the North Port colony
Thursday and nailed copy of the
summons on the CARL villa. Under
the law forty-two days remain for
answer to the suit.
This step was taken by Mrs. Dun
ham-Myers to offset Surrogate Fow-
lers action in admitting Durham
contested will to probate. The will
left an estate estimated at $500 900
Mrs. Caritl, to be held in trust by
her for her daughter. The widow was
cut off.
A second action against Mrs. CARL
to review the will case before jury,
will be begun in a few days by Con-
gresham Daniel @. Griffin on behalf
OF Mrs. Myers.
Contention is made that Durham
was of unsound mind at the time the
viii was drawn.

RELAX RULE ABOUT
BRINGING BODIES BACK

BERLIN, Nov. 27-So frequent have
been the pleadings of relatives to be
allowed to disinter the bodies of their
soldier-kin, who have fallen at the
front and been buried there, and bring
them back home for reinterment, that
the military authorities have relaxed
their rules somewhat.
Bodies of soldiers mly now he
brought back under the following
conditions: If they lie in single, indi-
vidual graves, not in graves in which a
number are buried or in graves that
form part of row: the exact location
of the grave must be indicated, by
sketches if possible: a relative or a
friend who is vouched for as able to
identify the body must superintend the
disinterment: the body may be trans
ferred only by horsedrawn vehicles
and trains, not by automobiles: trans
fer on military trains is free, on others
subject to the customary charges: the
regulations in force in peace time gov
ern the removal of bodies of men who
have died from dangerous diseases.
