Coast Railway, is soon to be erected
in the railroad park at the ST.
Augustine station of the Flagler
System. The company is now max

the statue.
| The fountain which has been used
for an alligator pool will be filed
and the figure mounted there. It
will face south towards the walk
leading across the park from the ex-
1t to thestation grounds.
The base will be of concrete five
feet in diameter and two feet and
seven inches in height. Above this
will rise three concrete steps each
| nine and one-half inches hight and
converging towards the center
Next comes a beautiful PEDESTAL of
fine Italian marble and upon this,
which is three feet and three ane

the bronze figure. It is about six
feet and eight inches in height, be-
ing a little more than life size as
Mr.. Flagler stood about six feet in
height. The bronze Is a splendid
work of art, the features of the face
being most natural.
Mr.. Flagler was always very fond
of the Ancient City, and it is truly
fitting that this memorial to him

NOTORIOUS LONG TERM CON.
VICT ESCAPES FROM PEN

Jacksonville. July 24-Harry
Armstrong. the 22-year-old burgler.
sent up from Duval county for a
term Of fifteen years, has made his
escape from the penitentiary at
Raiford. according to advices re-
ceived by the police department this
morning. The information came in
telegram from Warden B.. w.
Purvis, who announced that re-
ward of 100 was offered for Arm
strong's capture. Particulars as to
the manner Of escape were not CIV
en-.
Armstrong was arrested by Lieu
tenant of Detectives w. B. Cahoon
in residence in Riverside one
morning after the burglar had at
tempted to shoot the police officer.
When taken to headquarters he
made confession of ten or twelve
burglaries during the preceding
month and solved as many cases that
had been giving the police and de-
tectives no little concern. His con-
fession subsequently led to the ar
rest of Adolph Lovey. W. P. Nc
Fail and Samuel Farkas, all of whom
were implicated. The former two.
however, were released at prelim-
mary. Farkas was given a ten
year sentence at Raiford upon con-
viction as having been Armstrong s
fence"
Although nothing is known as to
the manner in which Armstrong
made his getaway from the peni-
tentiary, the theory is advanced that
smuggled saws might have been the
means that furnished him his free
dom. While the burglar was held
at the Duval county Jail, after his
conviction, to await the trial Of
Farkas, in which he was principal
witness 1t Is said that suspicious
that outsiders were attempting to
slip saws to him caused Sheriff
Bowling to order him removed to an
impregnable portion of the jail for
safe-keeping.

MUCH HEAVIER RAILROAD
TRAFFIC NOW

Chicago, July 24-The idle rail-
way cars in the United States and
Canada were $4,000 less in number
on July than they were on June /,
and the logical conclusion is that
the shippers of the country had in
creased their offerings of freight to
the railways, and the revenues Of
the transportation lines were in
creased by the additional traffic.
From this time forward business
upon all the railway systems will
become heavier both in passenger
and freight traffic. The immense
tonnage of the crops to be moved
this year bids fair to be millions OF
tons greater than the heaviest ever
before produced or transported.
The country will behold during
the coming four months every idle

HUMAN NATURE

HUMAN NATURE (By N. D.
Cochran).-One reason most news
papers are not human is because they
try to be superhuman. Editors are
always dealing with human nature as
they think it ought to be, rather than
as it actually is. That's why so few
editorials are worth reading. They
are even less interesting much of the
time than sermons, in which we are
told what we ought to be and know
all the time that it isn't what we want
to be.
We are all liars, of course, because
we are always pretending to be bet
ter than we really are. We not only
bluff and fourfush with our friends
and acquaintance, but we do it with
members of our own families. We
want others to think we are good"
whatever that is-and others want
us to think they are good; yet each
of us is trying to figure. out just how
much the other is lying. We know
all of us are lying more or less, of
course; and the game is to find out
how much. And 1 sometimes won
der whether anybody actually knows
what is good and what is evil or bad.
Most of us understand that to be
good is to be something we are not
something that requires effort, some
thing that isn't quite comfortable
and is generally inconvenient.
For about 1900 years many of us
have been trying to be Christians,
yet 1 have never yet met one who

to be good, for one is past being any,
thing else.
Understand, don't know what be-.
ing good" really is. l am talking
not about what each of us really
wants to be, but about what we want
the other fellow to he. And 1 some.
times wonder if we haven't got,
things all mixed up as to good and
bad, and whether after all human.
nature itself isn't really good instead
of bad.
Most of the laws whiih govern US,
are made by the ruling class and are
intended to make us ''be good" Yet
the people who make them are not
good according to their own laws. So
the laws must be made for the people
they rule. That would mean that
most laws are made to make the poor
be good" That works out when
you figure, it out that most of the
laws are for the protection of prop
erty. Certainly the poor haven't any
property to be protected.
Even the laws to protect life are
mostly laws to protect human life
from violence like murder, assault
and other crimes against the person.
We have plenty of law for protection
against that kind of violation of the
person. But it is very difficult to get
laws passed protecting the lives Of
children from the murder of Their
souls and bodies by hard labor. or to
protect working people from occupa-
tional disease or life-destroying
working conditions.
