Ocala has the only knitting mills in
Florida and they are making excel
lent goods. A Herald man, passing by
last Friday, was attracted by the sign
on the building and went in to see il
it was really and truly a knitting
mill. He found that it is mot .was)
operating a whole battery of ma
chimes, so to speak, and that it has
more orders than it can fill. Indus
tries like this are what create pros

on collision six miles west of Column
bus, Ca, late Monday between Gen.
trail of Georgia passenger train NO.

eight cars carrying the Con T. Ken
nedy Carnival company, says dis
patch from that place. 1t was fear
ed that the bodies of some OF the
missing might be under the over
turned cars of the show train.
Twelve of the carnival company s
cars we're reported destroyed by
fire and others still were burning
last night. Two of the cars contain
ing trained animals were said to
have been destroyed, killing many
of the animals. The known dead
and injured, except for trainmen'
were confined to persons traVenne
with the carnival company. It was
said no one except trainment was
injured on the passenger train,
which suffered little injury to its
heavy coaches. George Kempf, pro-
prietor of one of the shows, his wife
and several of their employees, were
burned to death when the wreck
caught fire.
This company is one Of the many
carnivals sent out from the G. W.
Parker factories at Leavenworth
and different Abilene people have
Travelled with it in previous sea-
sons. George Westrup of this CITY,
who has been with this company
said this morning that to the best
of his knowledge there were no Abb
lene persons with Kennedy this
season.

KANSAS CIVIL SERVICE

Numbers of complaints have been
received by the Kansas civil service
board that, since the recent exam
nation for positions at the state
prison was held only in Topeka, sew
e+al persons were barred from TAX
ing them because Of the expense OF
a trip there, according to ]. e. Ca
ton. chairman. AS result, he said,
an attempt will be made to hold
future examinations simultaneously
at a number of places throughout
the state.
w. Y. Morgan, lieutenant COVER
nor, proposed a plan to the commits
sion recently which Mr.. Cation said
the commission would attempt to
adopt. Under this the commission
will designate heads Of state insti-
tutions, county superintendent of
schools or other state officers as
sub-examiners. Over these will be q
head examiner, located at a central
point. Should any Of the sub-ex-
aminers be in doubt about any part
of the examination they will be d.
rected to confer with the head ex-
aminer by telephone. It is planned
that in this way examinations may
be held in a number of cities on
the same day.
The first examination Of this sort
will be held for nurses in the state
institutions, December 2, when ex-
animation will be held in Kansas
City, wichita and Topeka. Also, a
board to hold examination for po-
sitions under the direction of the
state board Of control at date
which has not yet been appointed
Members of this board are w. \.
Morgan Of Hutchinson, DR.. T. G.
Biddle, superintendent Of the To-
| peka state hospital, and Harry 9.
Bowman, a member of the state
board Of control.
p. w. Goebel Of Kansas City, W.
w. Bowman and T. J. Sweeney OF
Lawrence, also have been appointed
members of a committee to hold ex'
aminations to create an eligible lis'
for the position of state bank exam
liner. No date has been set for this
examination yet, however.
Some discussion has arisen as tc
whether a number of examinations
may be held in several parts OF th'
state at the same time, under th'
state law, it being pointed out tina
there is no provision governing thi'
point in the law, but on the othel
hand, 1t is said, there is no provl
, sion forbidding it and Mr.. Cation an
nounced that such examination
, would be held.
