The Petition
To the Honorable Members of the
City Council of Ocala:

To the Honorable Members of the
City Council of Ocala:
Gentlemen: We, the undersigned
citizens of Ocala, residing in the vi
cinity of the waterworks, petition
your honorable body not to locate the
consolidated water works and electric
light plant on the present location,
but to locate same on the property
owned by the city known as the
Taylor pond property, or else to ac-
cept the proposition of Mr.. B. H. Sey-
mour and locate the said consolidat-
ed plant on the lots in North Ocala
which he offers to donate to the city
for said purpose.
We feel that the residential section
of a city is not fit and proper place
and that to do so is a grievous injus-
tice to the citizens.
On the new properties there is am
pie room for all purposes and we are
informed by persons who have given
the matter careful investigation that
owing to the lesser elevation the wa
ter level in either of the other two
places rises nearer to the surface,
and the pumping can be done at great
ly less expensive, and the saving in
cost in the course of a very few years
would more than pay for the differ
ence, if any, in the cost of construc-
ton.
1t is unnecessary for your petition
ers to point to the fact that at the
present location the property of the
city is constantly meraced by the
Converse mill, which is located in
close proximity, and if the mill were
to burn, the water works buildings

WAR IN THE WEST

There has been considerable fight
ing in the west, in Arters, in the Ar
gonne section and in Alsace, but ap-
parentIy with little definite results.
The Swiss reports say the Austrians
are preparing to evacuate their first
class defense lines in the Isonzo re-
gion from Travignolo to Avisia. Other
unofficial reports tell of Italian ad-
vances in other sections.

actions seem to be holding the Ger

Warsaw General Mackensen's forces
are being badly battered. The only
Teutonic progress on the east front
is toward Riga at the extreme north
and before Ivangorod. Warsaw is
still holding out. Hope that it may
be saved is growing among the allies.
The German press accounts for the

LOCAL LEGISLATION
Discussion Before the Council Re-
garding the Location of the New
Water Plant

The city council met Tuesday night
in regular session. The following
members were present: Chairman J.
M. Meffert and Councilmen Tompkins
Gerig, Knight, Roess, Moore, Smith,
Nash and Fausett-a full board.
Several citizens being present and
wishing to address the council, the
reading of the very lengthy minutes
of the previous regular and adjourned
sessions was deferred till later in the
evening.
Mrs. M. H. Stovall addressed the
council on the matter of levying an
assessment for the Carnegie library
under the new city charter. She ex-
planned that the $4,000 fund was
available for the building as soon as
the differences here were adjusted
and the matter of plans and location
settled.
Mrs. C. L. Bittinger was present
and addressed the council on the
matter of the location of the new
waterworks. Mrs. Bittinger stated
that she had resided near the station
for twenty-five years, and that the
noise of the pump and machinery had
been a great inconvenience and espe-
cially in sickness it was almost un-
bearable. The existence of the water
works, she said, had greatly effected
the value and STABILITY of property in
that neighborhood, and she most
earnestly protested against the con-
tinuation of the nuisance on the pres
ent site or the location there of the
new plant or plants.
Mr.. F. E. Harris addressed the
council on the same subject and add
ed an earnest plea that the plant be
moved to the city's 14-acre lot known
as the Taylor pond property, or to a
large lot between the railroads in the
northern part of Ocala that Mr.. B. H.
Seymour had offered to give the city
for this purpose. Mr.. Harris then
asked that the petition of the property
owners and residents of the section
surrounding the waterworks be read,
which the clerk did, and is here re-
produced.

HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS
MUST WASH BABIES
Nurse Teaches Painesdae Sen.
Tors, Using SquaIIin gInfant

Painesdale, Mich, Nov. 10.-South
Range High school girls know how to
wash a baby.
Real practical knowledge so that
the students are fitted for the future,
is the aim of the high school teachers.
Hence an invitation was sent to Miss
Anna Abrahamson of the Copper
Range hospital to come to the school
and teach the senior girls how to wash
babies and do it so the squall would
be least pronounced.
The bid was accepted and to make
sure that the demonstration would be
of the right sort, Miss Abrahamson
took with her the babe with the best
cultivated voice. An old wooden tub
was placed in the room and the girls
went at the baby with q vengeance.
1t cried itself to sleep.
This proved such a pleasing expert
ence that the girls decided to learn
how to wash a grownup patient. The
blinds and curtains were drawn tight
and one Of the maidens impersonated
a patient on top of the teachers desk.

The Word Bible.

The word Bible is derived from the
Latin name Biblia, which was treated
as singular although 1t comes from
the Greek neuter plural meaning little
books" This Greek diminutive was
derived from byblus, or papyrus, the
famous material on which ancient
books were written. The title Bible
was first used about the middle Of the
second Christian century In the so call
ed second epistle of Clement, xiv, 2.

KITCHENER Goes
TO INDIA, RUM0R
Alleged Revolt Among Moham.
madans Grows Serious.
STATE OF UNREST IN EGYPT

Nothing Official Can Be Stated REGARD.
ing Reports Circulating at Washing
ton-FaIl Of Nixam OF Hyderabad
Said to Be Cause Of Anxiety In the
Far East.
Washington, Nov. 10.-Reports de.
scribed as confidential" were current
here that the ultimate destination of
Lord Kitchener on his present mis-
sion to the east Is India and not the
Balkans. According to these reports,
the unrest in India has taken on q
most serious aspect. These reports
were not confirmed In any official
quarter. In diplomatic circles, particu.
larly in those vitality interested in the
fate Of India, and the British military
operations 1t was said that nothing
was known Of Kitchener's alleged mis-.
sion to take charge Of the situation In
India.
NIxam Of Hyderabad Ousted.
The trouble in India in its present
form is said to have resulted from the
deposition Of the Nizam of Hyderabad
by his people. This head of the most
important native state of India dis
tinguished himself at the outset Of the
war by pledging all his treasure to the
support OF the British government and
declaring 1t to be the duty of all Mo
hammedans to aid the British empire
Incidentally, however 1T was noted in
an authoritative quarter that the re.
ports regarding the deposition Of the
Nizam by his people. presumably be-
cause Of his support the British,
mentioned a name quite Terent from
that Of Nizam. The mar { the real
Nizam is H. H. Sir ism Ali Kahn
Bahadur Eater, G. c. s. While the
reports current here ascri to one
Nawab Sultan VI Molka, tital of
the Nizam of Hyderabad.
German Influence Resp ibIe.
German Influences are ere. ed with
being responsible for the creased
tension In India. The GerI rs pre-.
dicted an immediate uprising India
at the outset of the war, and Brit
ish have had reason to believe that
German agents were engaged in try
ing to foment unrest against British
rule in India and also in Egypt. In the
last few weeks the German press has
repeatedly declared that British rule
In Egypt and also in India Is serious
ly menaced by the advance of the Ger
mans and their allies In the Balkans.
It has been assumed in the German
press that Lord Kitchener was going
to the Balkans because of the realiza-
ton in England that there Is some
truth in the German view of the near
eastern situation.
Also to Stop In Egypt.
It is represented that Lord Kitchen
er's trip to Indiana Is to be prefaced
probably by visit to the Balkans and
also to Egypt. Military men were Of
the opinion that If Kitchener and the
British government thought 1t advis
able for him to leave London to go
anywhere at the present juncture he
could probably be Of the most service
In the Balkans.
