The editor of this paper occasional
ly steps into the press room to see if
the paper is being printed correctly,
and it would be good idea for some
of the other editors to do likewise,
as we occasionally receive a valued
exchange that we can't read. Of
course the editors of the bigger pap
ers can't be expected to do that, but
they have men with bigger salaries
than their own to do it for them

We are rather curious to see how
that strike in Miami will turn out. II
the merchants, professional men and
others not affiliated with the unions
would shut up shop and refuse to have
anything to do with the strikers, the
strike would end in about two days
Why shouldn't they? The strikers are
striving to win their fight by causing
the public inconvenience and even
suffering.

PRINCE OF WALES NOW
HAS HIS OWN HOME

London, June 24.-The Prince of
Wales is now rs and King George has
decided that he should have his own
residence. York House, st. James
the home of his boyhood days, has
been selected.
Except that it lacks a garden and
a garage. York House is regarded as
an admirable residence Decorators
are now preparing it for the prince,
who will move in in about a month.
His household will not be large.
York House formerly was the prop
erty of the King of Hanover, who re-
fused to let Queen Victoria have it.
But after his death she was able to
, offer it to the widowed Duchess of
Cambridge. Subsequently the house
was occupied by the Duke of Clarence
and the present king and queen. Its
most recent occupants have been the
late Lord Kitchener and Sir William
Robertson
Since the armistice the Prince of
Wales has been very much in the
public eye, and his activities are d.
versified. He made speech in the
ring at the National Sporting Club
after the Wild-Lynch contest, being
introduced by Lord Lonsdale the
chief figure of the British sporting
world. He spoke also at the dinner
of the Royal Academy on the eve Of
the opening of the annual exhibition
which was attended by a great gath
ering of notables.
He has been initiated into the Free
Masons, following in the footsteps Of
his grandfather, King Edward, and
his great uncle, the Duke of Con-
naught, and has become an honorary
member of two of the old city trade
guilds.
Recently the Prince flew over Lon
don in an airplane piloted by one Of
the most daring army fliers, and
looped the loop and went through the
most up to date program of stunts,
which the more conservative aviators
have begun to discourage since the
end of hostilities.

MOSQUE OF ST. SOPHIA TO
BECOME CHRISTIAN CHURCH
(By Associated Press.)

Constantinople, June 24.-The
faithful Turk does not visit the great
Mosque Of St. Sophia as frequently
as he used to for he considers it a
foregone conclusion that st. Sophia
will become Christian church as 1t
was in the fifth and sixth centuries.
One can always have an argument in
Constantinople over the question of
whether the church will revert to the
Greek orthodox or Roman Catholic
communion.
Christian architects already have
visited the mosque and are making
their plans for the transformation Of
the church when it is taken from the
Turks. The faint mosaic of Christ
above the Mirab which has been al
most invisible for centuries, will be
renewed and the mosaics of the apos-
ties under the small dome IN the
north end of the church also will be
restored. Turkish inscriptions Of all
sorts will be torn down and replaced
by Christian symbols.

HERE IS THE BEST
SNAKE STORY TO DATE
(From Miami Herald.)

(FrOm Miami HERALD
Amilda Role and daughter, Gene
We've Hinson, negro women, who were
nearly blinded by a mysterious ex-
plosion, Monday afternoon, are slow
ly recovering from their injuries, 1t
was reported yesterday.
The women, who reside at 31S Ave.
nue. H north, were burned about the
face as the result of an explosion af
a well at the rear Of their home.
Several colored children reported
that snake had crawled down the
well, which was dry and walled in.
They went to the side of the we'll,
looked in, and saw nothing. The
daughter tossed stone in the well,
and, according to their story, scarce
ly had the stone reached the bottom,
when a blue ball rose from the bot
tom of the well and, as it rose to the
surface of the well it increased in
size.
AS it reached the open air above the
we'll, it exploded, nearly binding the
women, who were standing a few
feet from the we'll. Another daugh-
ter of Amilda, who was standing near
the well, escaped without injury.
1t is thought that some one left
quantity of explosive in the we'll,
which was discharged by the rock be.
ing thrown against it.
Needless to say, the colored inhabi-
tants of the immediate vicinity of the
well, which is located in the heart
OF the colored town, have Stunned
the we'll as though it was haunted.
The force of the explosion WAS felt
for several blocks.

There is possibility that the con.

worship may meet with some opposi

Berlin, June 24.-Two clever swird.
lers took advantage of the procedure
prevalent nowadays-by making a
coup which resulted in netting them
half million marks through advertise
ments. They interested wealthy men
in platinum which they produced in
some underhand way and offered to
sell it for cash which was to be de-
livered at point not far from Berlin
on lonely road.
The purchasers appeared in autos,
delivered the currency and received
the platinum, but on returning to the
city they were challenged by alleged
soldiers, The car was seached as IL
for weapons and the platinum taken

Says This State Should BE Shipping
Eggs and Poultry North In
Large Quantities.

" II. Lee, VI I1lllldIu, was Cdll-
er yesterday at the office of the Stats
/ Marketing Bureau. Mr. Lee came to
Florida six years ago from Nebraska
on account of his health, and that he
has been benefited one only needs to
see him. From observations N the
| chicken business at Petaluma, Cal.
the poultry center of the Pacific
coast, he was led to believe that sim
liar enterprises could be built up in
Florida. A good start has been made
at Hilliard, in this respect, he says
where there are already number of
successful plants.
Mr.. Lee keeps from 500 to 900
White Leghorns and Rhode Island
Reds, about equally divided in mum
Der. Most of the Hilliard breeders
keep white varieties. He matches his
chickens with incubators, and for
laying purposes never keeps hen be-
yond her second year.
II believe from experience here"
he said, "that Florida can raise poul-
try as profitable as out in California,
and more so than up in Nebraska. At
more so than up in Nebraska. At
Petaluma the raising of chickens is
| the main industry, and a train or two
of eggs or chickens leave that city
every day for market. That produc-
ers there are prepared for emergen-
cies was seen by an accident during
the earthquake and fire some years
ago in San Francisco. Alarm over
the food situation in the stricken city
resulted in an order going to Peta-
luna for two trainloads of hard
boiled eggs. The order was filled
within two days. The soil there is
sandy, about as we have it in Flor
ida.
II feed my fowls three times day,
on mashes made of corn, oats, shorts,
peanut meal and meat scraps, be-
sides scratch material and green STUFF,
in the form of oats and collards.
"By organization of growers, the
Standardization of varieties and the
development of feed stuff, Florida can
be made to ship eggs and poultry
North instead of having these impor-
tant food products coming to us by
the carload from distant states, as is
the case at this time.
"Most people seem to prefer white
eggs, but all American breeds, the
Plymouth Rocks, Wyandottes, Rhode
Island Reds and others, lay brown
eggs. The Leghorns, Orphingtons
and other foreign breeds, lay white
eggs. That accounts for the mixed
varieties We have in this state. What
we need is a general purpose fowl,
one to lay eggs and provide carcasses
for the table. We are just discover
ing the possibilities of Florida, not
only in poultry but in hogs, corn and
other great staples.
Chickens grow rapidly when prop
erly fed and cared for. I read re-

High Price Of Food In Local Cafe
Caused Poor Little COckrOach, On
Daily Food Hint, To Curl Up And Die

From the rear Of the menu and

with an honest Eush Of welcome that

The menu 7 thought at first must

The little fellow first nosed around

could tell by the way a brother al

nOcent Of any solid matter whatever
With q SILVER the cocl1roach ran
away from soup down to the rOasts
The prices after these items of diet
were so ridiculously eXOrbitant that
the poor cockr0ach had commissions.
He then went 70 the entries. St
Nitus dance was the result From
these he SHE'D over 70 the vegetables
Here he found little solace- The price
and the particular rhizome IN Ques-
ton usually would fill a thimble
without a noticeable siopover.
On through the courses the cock
roach zigzagged until he had reached
the cafe noir and then he paused as
though engaged in mental calcula-
ton. Adding up the items he had
traversed the total was $3.50 and
