Farce by Students at Normal School


The Man Who Married Dumb Wife,
a comedy farce, was given by the stu
dents of the Normal school Thursday
evening at o'clock in the school
gymnasium. The little sketch was
under the direction of Prof. Staebner.
1t was the story of a man who married
a dumb wife and who engaged q doc
tor to see if he could not make her
able to talk. He did so and the result
was that she talked too much to suit
her husband. He wanted the doctor
to make her dumb again but the doctor
couldn't do so and as the next best
thing he made the husband deaf so
he couldn't hear his wife talk. There
were q great many very amusing sit
uations. The part of the husband was
taken by Prof. Staebner- and that OF
the wife by Miss Edith Paschal OF
the faculty. The other character of
lawyer, doctor, servants, vendors were
taken by students. This play was
given as type of the plays given in
Shakespeare's time.

FLORIDA TO HELP IN
PRISON REFORM.

The charitable and philanthropi'
citizens of Florida have for many
years been trying to devise a plar
which would have for its purpose the
betterment of the unfortunate mer
who populate our prisons, and to help
and place on their feet those released
from such institutions.
To cope with this problem, Farm
Home is being opened in Bradford
County. Florida, near Palatka, for
the purpose of receiving and helping
men whose lives have been ship
wrecked, ending in Imprisonment
Here food, lodging, medical treatment
and work will be furnished until 4
permanent position can be secured for
each individual. In addition to this,
department will be opened for the
wives and children Of men in prison.
Under the leadership of Mrs. Maud
Ballington Booth, the worlds fore
most prison worker and reformer,
statewide and well organized plan has
been inaugurated, which bids fair to
solve this unmastered problem and
thus place a great army of men on
a higher plane of living and thinking.

Go back but a few short years an,
call up the activities of DR.. John N
MacGoniglc, who was force in the
spiritual development of Florida as
pastor of the great Memorial Prcsby
terrain church, St. Augustine. He was
the friend of Henry M. Flagler and
other men who were then active in
the development of the Florida East
Coast Railway. DR.. MacGonigle died
at an early hour on Monday morning
at his home, "Buena VISTA" near
Miami. He was but Ga years of age,
but had been retired for number of
years from the active ministry be-
cause of feeble health. And yet he
outlived the men who were with him
in his active years. Flagler and Par
rott relied on the advice of DR.. Mac
Gonigle; he was a safe, strong char
acter then. Now he is dead. But he
served his generation well. Requies-
cat in pace, John N. MacGonigle.

Perhaps very few people know
that the great Confederate chieftain
and distinguished and beloved after
the-war statesman. when a boy. lived
IN Marion county, and as a Young
man began his career on a farm near
the beautiful little city of Mcintosh.
On his farm was a wild orange
grove. and he transformed many of
the trees into sweet ones. thus early
compromising the possibilities in
this industry.
General Gordon remembered with
fond affection his boyhood DAYS in
Marion county.
1t will be seen, too, that his father
exercised good judgment in locating
his farm on the rich soil in the neigh.
borhood of Mcintosh.

Will it Rise Up?-

| Leesburg Commercial: State Sen
ator H. j. Drane, who was chairman
of the committee on immigration
when the L'Engle bill was before the
Florida legislature, says there were
some warm times around the tele-
graph offices when boards of trade
throughout the state got busy pro-
testing against that bill. The pre-
sure was so great that the bill just
turned up its toes and died a ragged,
dishonored death in the committee
Now we are wondering if the mem
bers of these same boards of trade
will ask Senator Hudson and Repre-
sentative Wood embarrassing ques-
lions about their advocacy of these
bills. They are the champions of it.

Forest Lake For CONGRESS-

Miami Metropolis: "Friends Of

that he will make the race for Con.

Lake formerly lived, and where he

good aid, in case he becomes a candi-

Always allied with the interests of
the everyday people, proven their
friend again and again, Forest Lake
would be supported by the masses
and looked to as a fit representative
of Florida at time when strong men
are needed in Washington.
Had Forest Lake been in Wash
ington during the present session of
Congress he would not have been
found voting against that child la.
Dor bill. That bill was too distaste-
full to the Money Barons to be one
that a man like Forest Lake could be
unfriendly to.
If he had been in Washington dur.
my the present session OF congress, 1t
is very certain that his star play
would have been something of great
er Importance than the securing of
some ornamental cannon for city in
his district.
Forest Lake has penchant for do
ing things, and things that can never
