ASSN HELD ANNUAL
MEETING; AFFAIRS
IN FINE SHAPE

AT the Office of the Interstate
Land and Investment Co., in the
Telegram Building, on yesterday af-
ternoon, was held the first meeting
of the incorporators of the Florida
Natal Hay Association. This organi-
cation, as many Lakeland people
know, has purchased several thous-
aid acres of land in fernando Coun-
ty near Brooksville, and is selling 1t
in small tracts developed into Natal
Hay farms.
The incorporators of the Association
we're Hon. H. ]. Drane, President,
of this city, Hon. w. A. McRae, Vice
President, of Tallahassee, and Messrs.
Geo. e. Southland, Secretary, c. M.
Clayton, Treasurer and Fred w.
Pope of Lakeland, Field Manager. To
these names as directors we're added
the names and Offices of M. Agrees,
General Manager, and Bert e. Belts,
Financial Secretary. The incorpora-
tors formally adopted it's charter and
bylaws. and closed contracts for the
sale of the developed tracts, through
the Interstate Land and Investment
Company.
Mr.. Fred w. Pope will move to the
land early in August and take person
al charge of the actual work upon the
ground. Several contracts are al.
ready placed, and the association is
making plans to start work on 1000
acres to be developed this fall held
under sale to people in Polk County,
New York City, Cincinnati, Columbus
and Portsmouth, Ohio.
! Hon. w. A. McRae, State Commits
sioner of Agriculture, who spent the
day in Lakeland for the purpose of
attending the meeting, expressed the
opinion that propositions of this char
aeter. which provide not only for the
sale of land in Florida, but for the
actual development of 1t under the
most modern and scientific supervls-
ion, assist in the rapid development
, OF Florida as state and the utiliza-
ton of its own great natural re-
sources,

PORTION OF ADAMS
BLDG. COLLAPSED
THIS MORNING;
INMATES HAD
NARROW ESCAPE

Five people had a narrow escape
from death when the support of a
brick-veneered addition, built
against the rear of the second and
third stories Of the Adams block, col
lapsed this morning at O'Clock al
lowing the structure to crash to the
ground. drop of some fifteen feet
BY great good fortune, however. only
one person, Mrs. John Bridges, was
hurt, and it is hoped that her in
juries will prove not serious.
The first floor of the building.
which was on a level with the sec
ond story of the main structure, was
used as kitchen by Mrs. John
Bridges, who conducts the Bridges
hotel in the Adams block. At the
time of the fall Mrs. Bridges, a lit
tie girl named Eta Beebee, who
makes her home with her, and three
colored women employed as cooks,
were in this kitchen. and that none
of them were killed, or at least bad
ly injured, seems almost miraculous.
None was seriuosly hurt. however,
unless Mrs. Bridges injuries should
develop to a greater extent than are
yet apparent. Medical examination
showed that there. were no bones
broken. and there are no abrasions.
1t is possible that there may be in
ternal injuries. but it is yet too early
to determine the, nature and extent
of them, If they exist.
The three colored women-Lula
Jones, Jessie Smith and Cora John
son-were badly shaken up, but not
otherwise hurt, with the exception
of the last named. who jumped from
a window as the building was fall
ing. She has some scratches and
bruises, but nothing, it is thought,
that will result seriously.
The structure was just over the
rear of Henley's Drug Store, and Mr.
w. e. Combs, of that establishment,
taking in the situation and noting a
stove with fire in it in the ruins and
that number of live wires had been
brought down with the crash,
promptly turned in fire alarm and
had the current shut off from the
light plant. This quickly brought
a throng to the scene, providing as
sistance to take Mrs. Bridges from
the debris, the rest being able to get
out without help.
The structure was two stories,
brick veneer, supported by three
piers extending from the ground to
the second story of the main build
ing. 1t is thought that the heavy
rains of the past few days under
mined these supports, softening the
ground and allowing the piers to
yield, the building sinking directly
to the ground at q slight Backward
angle. The timbers of the second
story held together fairly well, thus
preventing loss of life that would
otherwise have been inevitable. The
third story was unoccupied at the
time.
Henley & Henley had small iron
clad building under the structure
and this was buried beneath the
debris. In this building was their
ice-cream machinery, valued at
about $3.50, and this was badly
wrecked. A. A. Smiths bakery
sustained the loss of a smoke-stack.
Mr.. G.. NJ. Weeks, owner Of the
building. is having the debris
cleared away, and states that he VIII
not rebuild.

BRYAN AND POTEET
WERE ARCHITECTS
OF HOSPITAL

1t was inadvertently stated in yes
terday's Telegram that Mr.. e. c. An
gel was the architect who drew the
plans for the MCrrell Memorial Hos.
pital. This was an unintentional err
ror, as the plans were drawn and the

much credit for the handsome and
well arranged structure, which stands
as a monument to their skin and
ability.
