The entente cordial between the
Seaboard and the Coast Line over the
union station matter is not so thick
that you could cut it with an AK A
prominent Coast Line official told q
way-up Seaboard man, while they
were in the city Monday, that if the
Seaboard had only built decent pas
senger station of it's own for Ocala
several years ago, the union depot
matter wouldn't have come up. Which
was probably the truth. The Coast
Line has always had a respectable
passenger depot, which it inherited
from the Plant System, and has kept
it in pretty fair order. The Seaboard
station, built twenty years ago, has
for the last ten years been just about
good enough for a place like Baldwin,
its shabbiness being increased by the
stingy way it was cared for. People
can go into the Coast Line depot al
any hour of the day or night and
find passable comfort, but passengers
on the Seaboard night trains have al

The railroads intimate that loss of
the union station plans, and lack of
information by the people of Ocala on
the subject lies at the door of ex-
Secretary Rooney of the Board Of
Trade. Mr.. Rooney is not in the city,
but when he returns he will doubtless
give his side of the story. We observe
with regret that since Rooney is out
Of the Board Of Trade there is a
strong disposition to blame him for
everything that has happened in the
last two years. He was a tolerable
busy little person, but he wasn't om-
niscient, so it is possible that he didn't
even think of some of the things he is
charged with.

OBSERVE THE ORDINANCE

Recorder Izlar was compelled to fine
two boys in his court few days since
for riding bicycles on the sidewalk.
There is an ordinance against this
sidewalk riding and the recorder had
to enforce it, but he afterwards re-
mitted the fines. An observance of
the ordinance will prevent the arrest
and conviction of persons violating it
ir the future for the recorder cannot
indefinitely remit the fines of such
persons as he may be compelled to
fine, and it will save them and him
self embarrassment and humiliation
il the ordinance is observed.

young woman at the mahogany desk
under the green and gold electrolier.
He laid the picture before her and
asked the name, and the answer came
back at once, with the slightest up
lift of eyebrows:

art models. This picture was made
for an art firm to be used as the head
on one Of their perfume ads. Her
name is Betty Bellairs."
Give me the address of the club,
will you, please?"
Jack tried to speak In the proper
off-hand professional manner, and
wrote down the number almost nom
chalantly.
AT the Art Models club they gave
her address. 1t was In the West Six
ties, five flights up. in brownstone

door opened, and the little ten-year-old
girl who responded turned her head
and called back through the hall.

Then he held out the package.

She opened it wonderingly, and
laughed at sight of the contents.
"Oh, it's my Ronteau picture. They
gave me one all for myself, and lost
it on Broadway car. It was ever sc

And somehow in order to tell of the
unraveling it was necessary that he
sit down, and then followed the intro

the little sister, and Jack found him

islands and the home nest up In Maine

HIS GOAL
BY KEITH KENYON.

1t was rule of the company that
any property found by employees must
be turned in at the main Office. At
the end of month, If there was no
claimant, the finder received it as
sort of guerdon for his honesty.
Reardon had almost forgotten the
parcel until it was handed out to him
Saturday night with his pay envelope.
Here's where you get the wallet OF
cash" grinned Malloy, sitting out on
the bench at the side of the car barns.
but Reardon didn't mind. He stood
looking the parcel over, it was fat,
about fourteen inches long and nine
wide and perhaps an inch thick.
Open it, you gink,'' advised Malloy,
but Jack shook his head good ma
turedly
It'll keep awhile longer he said,
and swung up on an outbound car for
home. He was a big chap, curly
haired, blue-eyed, with square Shout
ders and straight carriage from
his two years in the Philippines.
When he had eaten dinner he went
upstairs to his room on the third floor.
It wasn't a hall room. He was get
ting his $2.85 day; not SO much,
but enough so he could pay out five
dollars for the third floor front and
have an open CRATE fire when the fur
mace lost courage.
He opened the package with a little
close smile of amusement. 1t certain

of the fellows had been lucky in find
ing articles Of real value. Then he
stopped short and stared with lowered
head and intent gaze at his treasure
trove. It was only the picture of q
| girl in double leather frame, but the
| face enthralled him with it's beauty.
The next morning, Jack went tc
work with growing feeling that some
thing was missing in the genera
scheme of happiness. ALI day the
feeling stayed with him. He sat by
himself across the street from the cal
barns at mis- off hour, and went with
out his lunch. Finally, that afternoon

SPRINKLE THE STREETS

Why in Sam Hill does the street
department have to be told by the
Star every time before it will sprinkle
the streets. The streets are in a ter
rible condition. There is lots of new
lime and loose sand from the recent
excavations and the high winds blow
great clouds of dust all over town.
The city owns its sprinkling wagons,
its mules and water plant. It is en-
ploying men enough to do the work.
Why cannot the people have the
streets sprinkled when they need it
to keep down the abominable dust? In
the words of the editor of the Bing-
vile Bugle, we ask again, "Why is
this not did,"

why they didn't want meeting of the
people and how the railroad commits
sion came to think that the expression
of opinion it acted on was from the
people of the city, and not from a few
citizens. r. C. Dunn of the commits
sion told the Star personally that the
commission did understand that the
delay was agreeable to large pro-
portion of the people of Ocala, and it
must have obtained that impression
from the railroad men, as no one else
communicated with the commission on
the subject at that time.

The Star understands that some of
the railroad men who were here Mon
day for conference with the council
were quite irritated by the rude way
in which the Star spoke about the
tactics they employed in having the
building of the union station delayed.
Here is something else that will
grieve them: When they arrived here
on the morning of Sept. 29 last, they
were met by the Stars representative,
who offered to print notice in that
afternoons paper, calling for meet
ing at the board of trade rooms that
evening to discuss their request, which
was that they be given six months
delay on building the station. They
said no, they did not want a public
meeting; they only wanted to meet a
few prominent citizens and talk the
matter over informally. The Star
complied with their request, but it did
so because it made the mistake of be-
lieving that they would respect the
confidence placed in them. They met
a few citizens-less than twenty-five,
talked the matter over with them,
made some promises (only one. of
which was kept, received the APP
prevail of most of those present to
their request, and went their way.
But 1t was particularly impressed on
them that. the gentlemen present
spoke only their individual views, that
they were not the Board of Trade and
did not claim to represent the town.
Certainly the Star expected the peaple
In general to be consulted or it would
have blown the whole thing up. A
very few days later, notice came that
1elay in building the station had been
granted by the railroad commission,
on the recommendation of this infor-
NAL and almost private meeting, which
the commission understood to be rep
resentative of the whole city. Who
gave the commission to understand
this? Certainly not the citizens of
Ocaia present at the conference, who
We're utterly surprised to find that
such snap judgment had been taken

railroad men are still further aggriev-
ed when we say that such tactics are
not respectable, let them sue the Star
for libel and we will put some of them
on the witness stand and let them tell
