MAN KILLS HUNGRY WILDCAT
Beast Had Attacked Party of unarmed
Men, and Was Dispatched
With Club.

A wildcat attacked party of hunt
ers in the deer woods of Atlantic coun-
~, six miles this side of Mays Land
ing, and was killed, after a fight, by
Thomas Campbell, who brought the
carcass home as proof of his exciting
experience.
Young Campbell, with his father, Jo-
seph Campbell, and a companion
named. Cess, were exploring the
woods, following a deer run, with the
idea of stalking out stands for the open
season, when the wildcat suddenly at
tackled them. The beast leaped upon
Geiss, who struck wildly at it with his
fists. One of the blows knocked the
big cat to the earth. None of the
men was armed, but Thomas Camp
bell picked up heavy piece Of wooc
and struck the animal as it renewed

stunned the beast, and the two mel
beat it to death.
The wildcat was apparently cub
not quite fully grown. Its gaunt bod.
showed that it had nearly starved dur
ing the long drought, which drov'
much of the small game from th
woodlands to the swamps. 1t is be
lieved that hunger forced the beas
to attack the men. A wildcat is

LONNIE WHALEY

On Wednesday, January 9Th, about
3 o'clock in the morning, Lonnie
the year old son of Mr.. and Mrs.
]. E. Whaley, ended his short earth
journey and entered his home in the
House of Many Mansions"
Lonnie was a boy of lovable dis
position, gentle, patient and thought
full of others. His frail body, touch
ed with a chronic weakness of the
heart, forbade any reasonable hope
of his reaching the years of man
hood estates; and yet the breaking
of the roots of this tender plant from
their earth bonds, that transplant
ing into the heavenly might be ac-
compolished, was to the family like
the swapping of their own heart
strings, so deep is love, and so insis-
tent is fond hope.
The religious" sense was stronger
in Lonnie than it is in most boys of
his age. He loved his Sabbath
school, and he loved, all religious
services. 1t grieved him when he be-
came too weak to go the short dis
lance from his home to the little
church where his Sunday school class
gathered of Sabbath afternoon; and
especially on the Sabbath once a
month when his pastor from Ocala
was wont to come out to hold short
service in the church. Lonnie will
be missed in the neighborhood and in
the school; but more especially in the
home where his gentle life was liv-
ed, and where he became even the
more beloved because of a fading
| life, that called increasingly for low.

WARE OF DICTOGRAPH
ALWAYS POSSIBILITY OF ONES

Widespread Eavesdropping Has Be
come a Common Thing-kTe Also
Being Used to Save Time
in Commercial Houses.

Wherever you go nowadays there's
very likely to be photograph listens

it is said so photographs are purchased
every week by jealous husbands and
wives, but the number of these de-
vices used for such doubtful domestic
purposes is small compared with those
which are being installed for COM
mercial purposes in Offices, stores and
factories.
The use of the photograph to secure
evidence in a number of sensational
criminal cases has made the public
quite familiar with the methods by
which it makes widespread caves
dropping possible The transmitter
is a little disk so small that only a
careful search viii reveal it when put
in place behind a picture OF some
where else on the wall. This trans
mitter is so sensitive that it win carry
every sound uttered in a room for long
distances Carefully concealed wires
connect it with the receiving end of
the apparatus, which is often dis
guised as a paper weight or hidden
away in a desk.
The work of paying tellers in many
/ large banks is greatly simplified by
the use of the photograph. When de-
| positor calls to withdraw a large
/ amount the teller may not be sure
that the account shows a sufficient
balance to cover the withdrawal, but
he does not like to offend by stating
his doubts.
So the teller presses button to sig
nal a bookkeeper to put his ear to the
other end of the photograph system,
whose transmitter is concealed in the
teller's counter. Then the teller picks
up the check and remarks casually
but distinctly enough for the dicto-
graph to carry his words: Two thou.

This question is the signal for the
bookkeeper to turn to the ledger and
see if Mr.. Blanks account is good foI

teller by ringing buzzer once; If it II
J not, he gives two rings.

the Bank of South Jacksonville last

wrecked, but the inner door kept the

MAKING THE MOST OF LAMB
House<eeper VIII Find This Arrange
mont a Help to the Cutting Of
Her Bills.

Every housekeeper is on the look
out to save in these days of high
cost OF living, especially In meats.
Here is one way to save mutton or
lamb. II, on Saturday, forequarter
of mutton or lamb Is purchased,
weighing from seven to ten pounds,
II should be divided as follows:
Shoulder neck, breast, French chops.
bones and trimmings The shoulder is
boned, pocket cut for filling, that
makes the roast; stuffed shoulder of
lamb or mutton for Sunday dinner
and cut cold for Monday luncheon or
supper.
Then the neck is boiled with the
shoulder bone and trimmings, max
ing two quarts of lamb broth, to be
used for soup for Mondays dinner.
The meat Is trimmed from the neck
bones for lamb croquettes, meat salad
or loaf. The breast is stewed, OF
curried with rice The choicest part
is left, that is, one dozen frenched
lamb chops.
OF course, you must be able to tell
your butcher just how you want it
cut and trimmed. The chops are
frenched chine removed, but the
chops are not cut apart. That is left
for the housekeeper to do, cutting just
as needed. The trimmings from the
chops are boiled with the neck and
bones, strained, and when cold all
fat is removed and clarified for drip
pings.
From this forequarter you have the
following dishes, always for four per-
sons:
Roast stuffed shoulder, hot for SUM-
day dinner.
Roast stuffed shoulder, cold for
Monday, with soup 1.-TWO quarts for
soup stock.
Lamb croquettes or meat loaf for
Tuesday
Stewed or curried lamb for Wednes-
day.
Lamb chops which can be kept for
Thursday.

POLISH FOR COFFEE BOILER
BY the Use Of Oxalic Acid the UtensiI
May Be Kept in the Best of
Condition.

A shining copper hot-water boiler
adds much to the appearance of a
kitchen, as all housekeepers know.
The boiler may be kept in state of
brilliancy by the use of a solution
of oxalic acid and water. Five cents
worth of the acid dissolved in q
quart of warm water will last
through many cleaning days.
Best results are obtained by apply
ing the solution to a warm boiler.
After one application of the solution
the boiler should be gone over with
a cloth wrung out in warm water
and then polished with a dry cloth.
The best part Of the process is that
no elbow grease is required. In a
few minutes a dull, dingy boiler be-
comes bright and shining with but
little effort
All copper articles not having a
lacquered surface may be cleaned
with this solution, and it also serves
as brass polish.
Keep in safe place, as oxalic acid
is poison.

Compulsory Change of Name.

compulsory Change OF Name.
A notable instance of compulsory
change of name occurred In Scotland
In the seventeenth century, when the
clan Macgregor was ordered to aban-
don and forget it's ancient patronymic.
The English government thought by
this means to stamp out the spirit of
Rob Roys redoubtable kinsmen, and
so sternly was the decree enforced that
the use of the old name was treated as
a capital offense. For the time the
clansmen submitted and took other
names; but, SO far from forgetting the
old designation, later generations
proudly reverted to 1t, and today there
are more Macgregors in the world-to
the worlds gain-than ever before
