found that he suffered financial reverses and other
personal misfortunes.
Hope is credited with having given the diamond
TO his daughter at the time she married the sixth
duke of Newcastle in 1851 But apparently IL was
the fiction mongers and not she who bequeathed
the gem TO her son. Lord Francis Hope. that II
might get sensationally into the life of May fohe,
the American actress
This part of the story Is mere fiction. Ii is true
that May Yohe married Lord Francis Hope. IL
is true that she eoped with Capt. Putnam Brad
lee Strong of former mayor of New York.
Lord Francis obtained divorce. and the wife
married Captain Strong only TO be divorced
second time
But May Yohe although she has been quoted as
saying that she the Hope diamond only
twice and that her troubles were due TO its malign
influence probably never the stone Ger
tainly Lord Francis never had possession OF il.
SO, when the story goes on to say that he sold
il for S16S0o0 To Joseph Frankel. a New York
jeweler the statement is untrue
Ii is true that Frankel had the gem in New
York Where and from whom FrankeI acquired
the stone never has been made clear. bur the
stone went back Paris and into the possession
of Jacques Colet who bought ii from Frankel.
Colet has been reported as having killed himself
after losing his mind.

TOO MUCH TROUBLE
ABOUT THE TIME

Elsewhere you will find timetable
giving the arrival and departure of
trains at 0cala by local and by rail
road time. The local time is the sun
time of Philadelphia, twenty-eight
minutes ahead of Ocala sun time. The
railroad time is the time of the Goth
degree of longitude, far out in the
Atlantic ocean, an hour and twenty
eight minutes ahead of Ocala sun
time, and was inflicted on US by a
bunch of damphools, who evidently
knew nothing of astronomy or geog-
raphy, and took the most annoying
way possible of trying to effect a
highly necessary saving.
We do not suppose this monstrosity
will be inflicted upon us another sea-
son; if it is, the most sensible thing
to do will be for the authorities and
business men of each community to
get together and make schedule of
business hours each for their own
particular locality Take Ocala, for
instance, the average hours for the
day for the average family (sun time)
are to get up at a. M. eat break
fast at Z, go to place of business at
6, to school at $50, open banks at 9,
dinner at II to 1, close banks and
dismiss schools at 3, close shops and
stores to $50, supper at 7, bedtime
8 to IL. Either central time on which
our affairs were conducted until Jan.
1, or eastern time since then, made
little difference. 1t was only half an
hour one way or the other, and the
only change has been in the schools,
which now open at 8, which is really
half an hour sooner than previous to
Jan. /.
We presume Ocala will remain on
its present time 1t is inconvenient
for some people, but railroad time
would be more so for a much larger
number. Ocala is mostly a CONNER
cial community, and most of its bust
ness centers around its stores. If they
opened on the new schedule, the en-
ployes would have to mark time at
least an hour before there was any
real business. At the other end of
the day, people, particularly the Ia
dies, wouldn't want to come down
town in almost the hottest part of the
day, 5 p. m. 1882 by sun time) to do

Ell MAESTRO

Cuando las tinieblas cubrieron Ia
terra, Jose de Arimatea encendi6 una
antorcha de pino Y bajo de la monta-
ia del vale. Porque habfa quehaceres
en- su misma terra.
Y apenas descendiera la falda de la
montana, vi6 un joven desnudo, AFRO
dillado en- las piedras durisimas del
Vale de la Desolaci6n, que lloraba.
Sus cabellos eran de color de la
miel y su cuerpo era una for blan-
ca; mas el Sc habia herido el cuerpo
con abrojos Y. tocado ell cabello con ce-
nizas.
Y aquel que poseia grandes bienes,
dijo al joven que estaba desnudo y
lloraba:
En- verdad te digd que no me ex-
traha tn duelo, pues aqu6l quien
lloras fue un hombre justo.'
ell joven lie respondi6:
g. No es por Ell por quien lloro, ST
no por mi mismo. Y0 tambi6n he
trocado el aqua en- vino, he sanado
a los leprosos, he hecho yer a los
ciegOs. Yo he caminado sobre las a.
guas, Y he lanzado al demonio los
que moraban en- las tumbas. Cuando
no habfa alimento en- medic del de-
sierto. yo df de conner a los que ha-
bian hambre; Y dies de beber cuan.
do hubieron Sed Yo leyantH lbs n,ueP
tos de sus moradas estrechas; al con-
jurO de mi voz marchit6se una hi
guerra esteril la vista de una gran
multitud de gente. Todo 10 que este
hombre ha hecho 10 he hecho yo tam
bien. Y, sin embargo, a mi no me han
crucifcado.'
