REPORTED MARRIAGE
OF NELSON GEISE

Mr.. Nelson Geise seems to have
prepared a surprise for his family
and to have been married in Augusta,
Ca, to young lady of that city.
Mrs. o. M. Geise and Mrs. ]. E. John
son, mother and sister of Mr.. Geise,
have received a letter from him say
ing that he has surprise for them.
He is now with his brother, Mr.. j. o.
Geise, in Swainesboro, Ga, and has
written for his mother and his sister
to come there. The letter does not
state that Mr.. Geise was married, but
a newspaper states that he was mar
ried in Augusta.
If Mr.. Geise has been married it
will be pleasant surprise to all of
his friends here, who have nothing
but best wishes for him and his bride.
Mr.. Geise until recently was an en-
ploye of the Marion Hardware COM
pany, and before that was in the
Commercial Bank. He left here about
"a month ago for Georgia.

OCALA WILL BID
FOR MASONIC HOME
A Campaign will be Waged for the
Purpose of Securing the 100000
Institution for the Aged

Ocala will make a strong bid for
the proposed 100000 home for the
aged Masons of the state. A COM
mittee from Marion-Dunn lodge, con-
sisting of Col. r. F. Rogers, Jake
Brown and R. E. 'Yonge, has been ap-
pointed to direct the fight of this city
for the big institution. The Board
of Trade, the Woman's Club and ev-
cry organization and individual pos
sible, will be enlisted for the cam
paign. Donations of lands for the
location of the home have already
been offered, and as many sites as
possible will be lined up.
1t is pointed out that Ocala's CEN
tral location, and beautiful surround
ing country are telling reasons why
the home should be located here.
There are numerous fine sites here.
A committee from the grand lodge
of the state has been appointed to re-
ceive and report on proposals from
the various places in the state. This
committee VIII report TO the grand
lodge at its meeting in Jacksonville
next January. The members Of the
committee are Albert w. Gilchrist Of
Punta Gorda, w. R. O'Neil of Orlando
and another. Already something like
$4,000 has been raised for the pur-
pose of building the home, and the re-
mainder of the 100000 will no doubt
be secured before the first of the
year.
Mr. Jake Brown, secretary of Mar
Lodge said yesterday that
it would be great thing for Ocala IL
the home could be located here, and
he said that everybody should get out
and work for it. Every bit Of data
bearing on the matter will be gather
ed.

Mr.. NASH M|SQUOTED.
President of the Council Says that the
Information He Gave Regarding
the Sewerage System was Obtained
from Bryan & Co.'s Engineer

President Nash, in a statement
made this morning, says that he was
quoting Engineer Sparmer of Bryan
& Co., when he told council that only
IL out of so of the flush tanks of the
new sewerage system could be flush
ed with the waterworks facilities now
provided for.
Mr.. Nash says: "In Saturdays is
sue of the Star the statement was
made that Councilman Nash said that
out of so flush tanks only II could be
connected with the water mains. The
facts in the case are that Mr.. Spar
mer, engineer for the Bryan COM
pany, stated to me that only these
flush tanks could be connected.
"Since that time the city engineer
and superintendent of water works
have ascertained that 25 other con-
nections can be made by connecting
to small pipes not mains, within an
average distance of half a block.
aThese connections will at once be
made, and | am very glad that we are
better off than we at first led to
believe through the statement of Mr..
Sparmer."

BAPTIST SUNDAY SCHOOL TO
PICNIC AT ORANGE SPRINGS

After carefully considering the
various places suggested for holding
their annual picnic it was decided by
the Baptist Sunday school Sunday to
go to Orange Springs.
Thursday, June 8th, is the day
selected for the occasion, that being
one of Ocala's half holidays.
The Oklawaha Valley railroad has
agreed to furnish ample accommoda-
tions for carrying the crowds to the
pretty resort, and as the fare has
been made very reasonable a big
crowd is anticipated if the weather
conditions are favorable. The fare
has been fixed at go cents and 80
cents for the round trip. The exact
leaving time of the special train has
not yet been agreed upon.

ANOTHER CLUE TO THE
HIGH SCHOOL VANDAL

What appears to be a further clue
TO the party guilty of trying to de-
stroy the cutters on the roof of the
high school building is given in a let
ter just received from the Grower
Stewart Drug Co., of Jacksonville.
The letter states that a Jackson
vile company purchased gallon of
nitric acid from the drug company
about the time of the incident here.
Three quart bottles that had contain
ed nitric acid bearing the label of the
drug company were found at the
school building. It is said that the
said company contends that the acid
purchased by it was in gallon bot
tie. The drug company has not clear
ed this point up yet, it is said.

Says De La Vergne Apparatus
Must Meet Specifications
IF EVERY DgGRUNTlED BIDDER IS ENCOURAGED TROUBLE AND
DELAY WILL Be WITHOUT END

The city this morning received a
letter from Twombley & Henney, en-
gineers for the light and water plant,
with regard to the De La Vergne oil
engine, which Councilman Tompkins
referred to in council Thursday night
as not meeting the requirements of
the insurance underwriters. The en-
gineers do not answer the particular
point raised by Mr.. Tompkins, but
state that the engine will have to
meet the requirements of the speci-
fications and contract for the new
plant. The city clerks telegram to
the engineers did not state the nature
of the charge made against the en-
gine, nor who had made the charge.
The letter from Twombly & Hen
ney, after calling attention to the
fact that the telegram had not given
the specific charge, says in reference
to the matter.
"We feel that it is Snly fair to our
selves at this time to say that in Sc
lecting the apparatus for your COM
bined electric light and water plant,
we have given careful consideration
to the plant as whole, so that its
operation as complete plant would
be as economical as possible, and at
the same time give satisfactory per-
formance. Included in the apparatus
recommended by US in the. specifica-
tions, which specifications were ap-
proved by vote of the city council, is
the De La Vergne oil engine or its
equal. The contract was awarded to
Benjamin Thompson for all the ap-
paratus including the De La Vergne
oil engine. There are more oil en-
gines of this type giving satisfactory
service in operation in the United
States that of any other make of oil
engine. If the manufacturers of
other types of oil engines are to be
permitted to bring charges against
the De La Vergne engine, which
charges are to be taken up by the city
council and considered. by them,
there will be no end to this sort Of
trouble. The city is entirely pro-
tected in the purchase of this engine
as it will not receive our approval as
engineers until erected and until it
performs in accordance with the spec
and the contract. If it does
so perform nothing more can be re-
quired and the city will have first
class oil engine equipment.
"The council can readily under
stand that if action of the kind indi-
Gated in your telegram is to be en-
couraged, disgrunted bidders on all
kinds of apparatus for this plan will
be continually coming to the council
with charges, which when sifted out
to nothing, but which will
have required on our part the expen-
diture of time and money. The coun-
ell has selected US as their engineers,
and as stated before, we have given
careful consideration to the apparatus
best suited to the needs of the city,
and have recommended apparatus
which we believe to be best suited to
their needs, and we fel that the coun-
Gil should allow the work to proceed
without unnecessary interference and
await final tests to determine whether
the apparatus will be accepted or re-
jected."
The agent of the De La Vergne en-
CINE company will probably be here
shortly to answer any questions that
the council may ask.

San Antonio, May 22-There is
some anxiety at General Funston's
headquarters over the position of Sib-
ley's troops south of Bouquillas. The
latest reports say that Major Lang
horne with two troops of cavalry is
moving north to join Sibley. Should
trouble develop it would be possible
to send the Sixth cavalry in the big

and Sibley. Some officers are inclin-
ed to believe sniping is being done by
small disorganized bands of Villa ad-
