GRANT NEW TRIAL
IN MILTON CASE

A motion for a new trial in the
case of the American National Bank
of Asheville, N. c., VS.. w. H. Mil
ton, was granted by Judge w. B.
Sheppard in the United States Dis
trict Court for the Northern Dis
trict of Florida, Wednesday morning,
when petition was fled by attorneys
for the defendant.
The case came before Judge Shop
pard at the spring term of the fed
eral court, and consumed nearly a
week in trial, verdict being found
for the plaintiff in the amount of
$1,000 with interest for several years.
The cause originated in endorsing
some notes for John Carter, and con-
cerned the action Of the Georgia
courts, the bank claiming that Mr..
Milton was liable for $4,000, which
Mr.. Milton denied on several
grounds.
The American National Bank is
represented by Hon. w. A. Blount
for Blount, Blount & Carter, and
Judge w. B. Farley of Mariana is
counsel ~ Mr.. Milton. The case is
set for November.

PARK IS
READY FOR USE

Immediately after the storm a
force of men was put to work at
Bay View to repair the damage
wrought by the storm of the 9Th, and
they have made good progress. The
new wharf is about finished and the
high dive will be placed in position
by the end Of the week. 1t is ex-
pected that the patrons of the place
will be back to see how the storm
left the pavilion. Many of the reg
ulars have been coming as usual, and
the lights, which have now been
turned on, viii encourage others.
The light of other days, that is,
oil and talIow, did for a while, but
it was great relief to see the cleo
trio lights flash out when the switch
was thrown on yesterday.
Feat Of Swimming.
On the afternoon Of the 18th Mr..
Keogh, the manager of the pavilion,
swan from Baar's bridge to the troll
ley bridge in the good time Of two
hours and eight minutes, thus estab-
fishing record.
The best previous time of which
there is record is that Of Lee Gould
ing, who swan from Bars bridge
to the pavilion at Bay View in two
hours and five minutes. Mr.. Keogh's
time to this point was one hour and
fifty-six minutes. Mr.. Keogh was
accompanied by boat containing
F. x. Gehrie and Otto Davis, who
acted as timer.
On the way down he met Mr.. Glenn
ent Blount, who was out for long
swim, and who accompanied him to
the bridge. Mr.. Blount was satisfied
with the pace set, and expressed a
desire to accompany Mr.. Keogh or
his next long swim.

FRECKLES

Don't Hide Them With a Veil; Remove
Them With the Othine Prescription
This prescription for the removal of
freckles was written by prominent
physician and is usually so successful
in removing freckles and giving a
clear, beautiful complexion that it is
sold by any druggist under guarantee
to refund the money if it fails.
Don't hide your freckles under a
veil; get an ounce OF othine and re-
move them. Even the first few appli-
cations should show a wonderful i'm
provement, some of the lighter
freckles vanishing entirely.
Be sure to ask the druggist for the
double strength othine; it is this that
is sold on the money-back guarantee.

MOBILE SMACK HAD
Time GETTING OUT

While passing through Caucus
shoals a day or two ago the Mobile
smack Amelia Gloria ran on the edge
Of the channel, but was pulled off
without much trouble, and after hav'-
ing been found to be undanaged,
proceeded to her home port.
It is stated that channel markings
are not yet in position, although
just what caused the smack to de-
viate so widely from the deep water
could not even be surmised by those
who rendered aid to the smack. The
latter was weather-bound at Pensa.

SMACK CAVIARE IS
REPORTED ASHORE
ON ALACRAN REEFS

A radio message was received last
night announcing that the smack Ca
Ware, of the E. E. Saunders Com
pany's feet, had been driven on Ala
Gran reef. Nothing was stated in the
wireless regarding the fate of the
crew, but there is no reason to be-
lieve that they were lost
The Caviare is under command OF
Captain John Brown, better known
as tampa John" Frank Sullivan
is. first officer, and II. E. Thompson
is cook. Other members of the crew
were not known last night, as it is
understood the smack had lately
changed masters and several new
members of her crew had been signed.
The radio was sent by the steamer
'sKfOyda," although no such steamers
name appears in the register. 1t
simply stated that 'aThe fishing YES
sci Caviare, Captain Brown, is wreck
ed On Alacran reef. The state de
partnent can supply "details" The
message bore the signature of AThe
French consul, In charge Of Ameri-
can interests"
Some smacks which have lately
returned from the fishing waters OF
Mexico, or near Mexico, bring the
assertion that not all the lights are
maintained on the coast of Mexico
This condition may have brought
about the wreck Of the Pensacola
vessel named.
