New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1915-05-05
SAGE TEA DARKENS
HAIR TO ANY SHADE
Don't stay gray! Here's a simple
recipe that anybody can apply
with a hair brush.

The use Of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to it's natural
color dates back to grandmother's time.
She used it to keep her hair beautifully
dark, glossy and abundant. Whenever
her hair fell out or took on that dull,
faded or streaked appearance, this sim
pie mixture was applied with wonderful
effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for so cent bottle of
1sWyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem
edy," you will get this famous old
recipe which can be depended upon to
restore natural color and beauty to the
hair and is splendid for dandruff, dry,
feverish, itchy scalp and falling hair:
A well-known downtown druggist says
:. lte darkens the hair so naturally and
evenly that nobody can tell it has been
applied. You simply dampen sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one strand at
q time. By morning the gray hair dis
appears, and after another application or
two, it becomes beautifully dark, glossy,
soft and abundant.

ROONEY RETURNS
WITH AN OPTIMISTIC REPORT
OF OKLAWAHA WORK

Secretary Rooney returned this
morning from Washington, where he
has been diligently at work in favor
of Oklawaha improvement.
Mr.. Rooney brings a good report of
the prospect. He says that Congress
man Clark is pushing the plan for the
Improvement of the waterway, and
that there are the best prospects for
It's success. Mr.. Clark is on one of
the most important committees and
has q great deal of influence. He will
not let this most important measure
for his state fail if he can push it
thru.
Mr.. Clark has introduced the bill
calling for the survey for the Silver
Springs -Withlacoochee canal, which is
to be cut thirty feet wide with not
less than six feet of water, and there
are good prospects for its going thru
Mr.. Rooney also says that there is
almost a certainty of an appropria-
ton to fight the citrus canker. AL
the Florida congressman are working
for this, and they have the help of
many of their colleagues.

TRANSPORTATION co
WILL BUY A NEW TRL q K

At a fairly well attended meeting
last night at the Board of Trade room
Of the stockholders Of the Ocala
-ansportation Co. it was decided to
purchase a three ton truck to replace
the old one recently burned to be used
in hauling the lines freight from the
Springs to Ocala.
Mr. Carmichael said he knew of a
thoroughly reliable rebuilt truck in
Jacksonville that could be bought
very cheap, and he was authorized to
go to Jacksonville and make the best
purchase he could of the truck to be
delivered at Ocala.
It was decided to add small per-
centage to each freight bill and keep
the money in a fund to pay for the
truck, the money for it's purchase to
be negotiated by the stockholders on
their personal credit. The old truck
IS not worth rebuilding. It is OBJ
solete and the parts expensive, and It
never was much of a truck.
The members of the company are
not one whit discouraged and their
feelings last night were unanimous
on going ahead, that we had only be-
gun to fight and would stick to the
river an dtruck route till the end.

GENERAL RESENTMENT
OF THE GRAND JUR =
Ocala. Fla, Dec. Is. 1915.

0caIa, Fla, Dec. Is, 1915.
To the Hon. w. S. Bullock, Judge of
the Fifth Judicial Circuit of Flor
ida:
We, the grand jurors sworn and i'm
paneled at this, the fall term of the
circuit court in and for Marion coun-
ty, 1915, having completed our labors,
beg to submit this, our final present
ment:
We have examined great many
cases, and have found true bills in
those cases only where we thought a
petit jury would be justified in bring
ing in verdicts of guilty.
We have examined the jail and find
he same in thoroughly sanitary
condition. We find few lights brok-
en- out of the windows, and inasmuch
a5 winter is on, we recommend to the
board of county commissioners that
the same be repaired at once.
We have examined the court house
and find that some of the plastering
has fallen off, and recommend that
this be repaired at once.
We have examined various county
offices and find them all to be neatly
and well kept.
We find that some of the justices of
the peace throughout the county have
failed to follow the law in giving the
witness the proper notice as to when
to appear before the circuit court. We
call their attention to this matter and
request that same be not overlook
ed in the future.
In the matter Of investigating the
acts and doings of the bond trustees
Of the city of Ocala, we beg to advise
that no evidence was submitted upon
which we could take any action.
We have referred some cases to the
county Judge for trial, and in this
matter we request that the sheriff
make the necessary affidavits on
which the trial can be had.
Having completed our labors, we
now ask to be discharged.
Respectfully submitted,
Eric J. Collier, Foreman.

FORT KING
Historic Spot, on Which Ocala Should
Stand, Is Now an Old Field
(From the Tampa Times Christmas
Edition)

0cala, Fla, Dec. 15.-0f the thou
sands of people who travel the Ocala
% Silver Springs boulevard every
gear, not many realize that about
half way between the two places, a
few hundred yards south of the road
lis place where some the most stir
ring scenes in the early history of
Florida were acted.
Shortly after taking possession of
Florida, in 1920, the United States
government built chain of forts
across the peninsula from st. Angus
tine to Tampa. In these forts were
established garrisons intended to keep
the Indians in order. One of these
5trongholds, Fort King, was IN the
most populous part of the Indian ter
ritory, now Marion county, forty miles
south Of the home of Miccanopy, king
Of the Seminoles, and in the hunting
grounds Of Osceola, who became the
most famous warrior of the nation.
Fort King was stoclsade with
block house at each corner, on a hill
about three miles west of Silver
Springs, and about the same distance
east of the present site of the Ocala
court house. 1t was the most impor-
tant station between ST. Augustine
and Tampa and had the largest garri-
son. 1t received most of its supplies
5y way of the Oklawaha river and
Silver Springs, then almost century
ago recognized by the government as
a navigable stream.
Here on Christmas day, 1885, the
Seminole war began. The officer in
command had treated 0sceola with
unnecessary severity, making him
pl tsoner and keeping him forseveral
days in chains. When the proud saw
age was released, he naturally sought
revenge at TIE first opportunity. It
eome on Christmas day, when the
commanding officer and several of his
srhotd.nates were taking dinner at
q house some hundreds Ct yards from
the fort. They were taken unawares
by Osceola and his band, shot down
and scaIped; the Indians escaping
before the soldiers from the fort
could come to the aid of their officers.
The massacre of Dade and his men
followed some two months later, and
then the war was on in earnest.
Was Rallying Point in War Days
Fort King was central point for
the whites during the war It was too
strong and well garrisoned to be at
tackled except by surprise, and after
that fateful Christmas day the sol
diers never gave the Indians another
chance to take them pnawares. Out
from Fort King went expeditions,
which soon drove the Indians from
their plantations and hunting grounds
in central Florida end compelled them
ito retreat into the swamps.
It was at Fort King in 1912 that the
seminoles signed the treaty by which
they pledged themselves to leave Flo
rida and go to the west: a treaty.
which a few bold spirits disregarded
and retreated to the Everglades, to
fight another war fifteen years later,
and where their descendants yet live.
