Lyon was riding outposts at the time.
He beheld the fair girl, drawing near
er and nearer to the danger zone.
His subsequent actions truly were
those of an officer and gentleman.
Jamming both spurs into the ribs of
his protesting cayuse, Lieutenant
Lyon galloped off madly in all di-
rections, principally in that taken by
the maiden.
"She was saved!
From that moment Lieutenant Ly-
on spent as much time in Canutilla
and as little in Camp Cotton as the
law allowed. And last week the Of
ficers of the Fifth Regiment were
formally apprised Of the approaching
nuptials of the gallant lieutenant and
Miss McCamack, the same to be SOL
emnized on St. Patrick's Day, at

Something Like This in Palatka?

A movement is on foot, promoted
by Prof. I. I. Hines and the secre-
tary of state, J. w. Naples, to erect
Y. M. c. A. building. This is a
magnificent idea and one that should
be thoroughly discussed by all lead
ing citizens of this city At present
there is no place to accommodate the
young men in the evening or in their
leisure hours and naturally they have
to look in other directions for amuse-
ment that is not quite so uplifting.
1t is hoped that the $500 needed in
this campaign will be made good by
enc or number of residents and
then possibly in the near future West
Palm Beach will be able to add to it's
interesting circulars cut of the Y.
M. c. A. building, which will be a
credit to any city in the Union.
Pledges have already been given for
81 800 and the other $500 will make
a certainty of what appeared a few
short weeks ago an item of thought
expressed in words.-Palm Beach

GIee Club Concert.

The Columbia College Glee Club
gave most enjoyable concert in the
Baptist church Monday evening to a
packed house. Every number was
good and given with the usual vim
and spirit of real college boys. The
young men showed careful training
under their efficient leader, DR.. j. H.
Chapman. Taking into consideration
that these young men have had their
training for so short a time, their
work was highly meritorious. Most
of the young men are ministerial
students in the college, which is a
Baptist institution. The silver offer
ing was generous and went to the col
lege at Lake City. The object in
bringing the Glee Club to the city was
to Stimulate interest in the new
church building annex, and the genial
pastor, Rev. R. S. Bonsteel, feels that
the mission was accomplished.

"Yes, had to get car" said DR..
Steen, "in order to properly attend
to country calls; the horse was too
slow for present day requirements;
we are living in fast age, and the
pace is increasing, and we must keep
up: have been neglecting country
calls, but now that I have this car
shall give more attention to them.'

manner to insure the permanancy Of

COAL POOL IS
NEAR-CARF|ELD

WASHINGTON. Dec. 26-Fuel Ad-
ministrator Garfield told the senate in
vestigating committee today that if
the war continued very long the gov
eminent would be compelled to pool
coal and sell it at reasonable prices
Some coal operators, he said, were
making the greatest profits in their
history, but he considered high prices
a stimulus to the great production
the war demands.
The fuel administrator said he saw
little relief in prospect for the rail
roads until their operation was cen
tralized
Private consumers have felt the
shortage because the government has
come first in it's demands, but that
rule has been changed in the last few
days. Dr. Garfield said.
I'VE are giving it to the people
first now" he said. with a discon-
tented people we could not make much
progress in the war.
DR.. Garfield said he did not want to
place blame for lack of transportation
on any one nor did he want to try to
shift the blame that might be attach
ed to his administration. He added
that il was impossible for the rail
roads to cope with the situation.
Unless conditions are improved
may abrogate contracts and divert
shipments TO prevent congestion" DR.
Garfield said. II think that wise
plan" remarked Senator Kenyon.
