"WOMAN HE BOUGHT"

Tonight the Gibson Company will
close their engagement in society
drama "The Woman he Bought" It
is said to be the strongest play in
the company's entire repertoire. A
comedy drama right up to now, and
one that is "different." The title
suggests the story. The question to be
answered 'why, how and where did
he buy her, and what happened. It
must have been gratifying indeed to
the company to play to such
a good crowd that witnessed "a
Bachelors Honeymoon" last night.
It was a real comedy and the audi
ence rocked in a storm of laughter
and applause. Mr.. ellison fully satisi-
fled the demands made upon him
and kept the audience in an uproar
over his singular and strenuous
honeymoon" He was well support
ed by the company Rd each one
deserves special mention. The vaude-
vile by Miss Hazelton and Mr.. Win
terhoff was well rendered and en-
cored.
The company will be welcomed a
gain and are leaving many friends.

CARRYING THE MESSAGE
TO GARCIA

Once upon a time u wrote liter
airy .trife, entitled "A Message to
Garcia" 4
The intent OF this article was to
show that when you are given
message, it is more or less desirable
that you should deliver it to the
right party, in the quickest possible
space of time.
The average man, when told to do
something, casts around in his mind
for reasons to show why the errand
is quite superfiuous.
He may explain that this thing has
never been done before, that it cam
not be done now, and that il is not
worth doing anyway.
The mediocre man is an intellec-
tual brakeman and he puts on the
brakes simply because he has not the
ability to handle the throttle.
1t is a great thing to deliver the
message, nut sometimes thlnk 1t is
bigger and better man who can Sc
lect men who will carry the message.
Not only must you select your man,
but you must animate him with the
right spirit. He must feel that he
| is beng trusted, that you depend
upin him to do this one particular
thing, and nothing else until this
thing is accomplished. Trust thy
self" said Emerson. Trust others"
echoed Henry Thoreau.
Life is a man hunt; also life is a
hunt for the man who can discover
the man who can deliver the MESA 20

THE BEST THINGS IN LIFE
ARE NOT SOLD FOR A PRICE

The only things which can save a
human being from mediocrity are the
things of the spirit Who can set a
value on truth, or courage, or for
| bearance, or honesty, or high en-
deavor?
The poorest may have these things
of the spirit. Lacking them, the
millionaire is poverty stricken.
For the things of the spirit are not
bought with price They are given
to those, and only to those, who
seek. They are found hidden deep
in the heart of days work, they are
met in long night watches when the
soul, struggling in the throes of self
conflict, comes suddenly upon an
angel in the way, all panoplied with
the armor of Truth They are
caught from the music of the stars,
won from the battle with the storm,
filtered from the purling of brook
on a summer day, swept to the core
of being from the fragrance of a
flower.
Brooks are rich with gifts for the
spirit, for mere the treasure house
of all the great souls of the world
are garnered, and there is no key
of gold to shut this wealth away
each soul may seek and find the
gems for his enriching. The heavens
and the summer days and the long,
hard, winter nights, bitter and
starless; the gaunt hand of famine
and the opulence of plenty; the hard
task and the joy of the easy way,
or can be, all poverty and riches,
work and play, joy and sorrow, these
must go to kill the mediocre, the
common place, and build ladders to
the stars. Life can never be a COM
mon-place to souls that adventure
upon life's Great Highway, with
courage for shield, truth for a ban
ner, with high endeavor, and hon
esty and forbearance as body
guards
Without these all the perfumes of
Araby are odorless. at last, the Gold
en- Apples are but dead Sea Fruit,
and the song of the spheres but the
world moving laboriously on its
aXis.-Pensacola Journal

RAILROAD NOTES

The St. Paul has increased the
wages on the western Washington
branch about 20 per cent.
Freight rates from this country to
England have risen in some instances
more than 1000 per cent. since the
beginning of the war, and the aver
age increase is about 500 per cent.
The increased demand for fish dur
ing Lent has made it necessary for
the st. Paul road to put larger
number of their express refrigera-
tor cars in service for transporting
great quantities of this food from
Seattle to Tacoma for Chicago and
eastern markets.
Thomas Eagen of Cincinnati, who
recently retired from the service of

never having been away from his
post of duty for one working day

Contracts for approximately $500
tons of tie plates and $500 tons of
joint track fastenings have been
closed by the Chicago, Milwaukee &

According to authoritative an

The current issue of Golfers has a
sketch of the career and character of
a typical German emigrant, which
many persons could read with profit.
The landing at Ellis Island of the
sturdy, good natured giant, his wife
and twin children, the trip to Kan
sas, where he went to pillow and
sow" his struggles and eventual rise
to aff1uence, resulting in his being
sent to Congress by the people who
admired his industry and honesty;
and, finally, the effort by unscrupu-
lous agents to play upon his love of
fatherland to induce him to betray
his adopted country by voting for a
measure favorable to German inter-
ests-all these things are told IN
way that will bring to many for the
first time a true conception of what
the "meltingpot" does to a very
large proportion of the crude mater
ial immigration pours into it. The
story is particularly commended to
those persons who allow their preju-
dices to warp their Judgment and
their sense of fairness. In fact, when
ever one hears a sweeping denuncia-
tion of the people of any country. or
of any section, or of any denomina-
tion, it would be advisable before al
lowing prejudice to take root to
make mental survey of those per-
sons of that particular country, or
section, or denomination, whom he
knows or has known. and compare
his personal impressions of these peo-
pie with that which may have been
sought to be conveyed by an appeal
to prejudice. The result may change
ones opinions radically

WILL FLORIDA BECOME AN
OIL PRODUCER

A number of leases have recently
been reported as having been made of
large tracts of land in Florida by oil
operators from other States who are
planning to bore test wells to find
, out whether oil in paying quantities
can be found in that State 1t is
said that many indications give
promise of oil in quantities.
Mr. w. 7. Wells of Melbourne,
/ turers Record gives some inter asting
| information on the subject. He
writes:
There is a growing belief that
| there is oil under some parts of this
State. A few days ago i received
letter from Hon. p. \. Vans Agnew,
one of the leading attorneys of the
State and associated with the J G.
White Company's interests, in which
he said:
Your oil intentions particularly
interest me, as the possibility of find
/ ing it in Florida has been hobby of
mine for many years. About two
years ago we formed local oil COM
pany in Kissimmee and went down
about 800 feet Unfortunately, the
company became financially embar-
raised for lack of satisfactory re-
Spouse from the stockholders to as
sessment, and the machinery was
sold. My friends are contemplating
reorganizing the copany with the in
tention of boring 1900 feet At the
point where the boring was discon-
tinued they were drilling in an in
tensely hard rock, the hardest that
the contractor had ever struck, and
he was an experienced oil contractor
who had bored in Pennsylvania and
the middle West fields This rock,
| believe, is called Trenton rock in
the East, and the oil lis usually
found under it,.
About year ago they commenced
to bore near Ocala, but ran out of
money. They are now at work near
Sanford, and it is rumored that
flowing well has been struck at
Plant City and is capped and be-
ing kept quiet at present
While | do not pretend to be a
geolo2ist, have always maintained
that Florida had been formed over
a spur from the Appalachian range,
and that consequently while the sur
face is the very newest formation,
we are underlaid by the Oldest Con-
sequently it would seem possible
that oil would be found on both
slopes of this bedrock.
In this connection it may be in
teresting to mention that just before
some years ago the Manufacturers
Record received letter from one of
the best posted business men in the
State, in which, referring to the flu
ture of Louisiana, he said: you
know there are no minerals in Louis
lana" and he indicated his belief in
| the fact that Louisiana would have
to depend upon it's agricultural and
timber resources for it's future de-
velopment Since then, Louisiana
has become one OF the great oil pro-
ducing and refining States of the
Union, center of great natural-gas
activities, producer of about one
half of the worlds output of sulphur.
and is now recognized as probably
the best place, natural advantages
being considered, known to scien-
| lists in this or any other country
