"SOne" Day

Last Friday was "some" day in
Punta Gorda, a dance in the lobby of
the Hotel Punta Gorda by the Amer
ican Legion, some very clever aero
plane "stunts" performed by an air
man from Carlstrom field, a clever
performance of "Flighty Frolics" by
the Carlstrom Field Ground Aces"
and Nazimova at the Plaza, contrib
uting to make it a day out of the or
dinary. The airman performed all
the hairraising stunts known to the
art of flying and after watching him
for a time a few buzzards that had
been circling around, probably feel
ing that they were back numbers,
sailed away disgusted with them
selves, leaving the airman a clear
sky. "Flighty Frolic8' and the
sketches were written by the soldiers
and show considerable talent and
a number of the sketches
and jokes being new. The show at
tracted large audience and all seem
ed to be pleased with it.

ORANGES ARE IN DEMAND
Floridas Bringing SS Per Box on
New York Market.

According to the New York Pack
er of Saturday, the 18th, receipts of
Florida oranges on the New York
market were light and due to more
favorable weather conditions, the
market ruled active and higher.
Most of the fancy fruit moved out at
$7.250S, with some extras going
higher. Desirable choice brought
$607. Some weakness developed
on poor to common stock but large
sizes met with a good demand at $4
05.
Florida grapefruit was in moderate
supply and the market was strong on
desirable stock. Fancy sold at $50
SIS, choice at 1915 and poor, un-
fruit lower, according to
quality and appearance.
Receipts of Florida tangerines
were light and the market was
strong. Some fancy fruit brought as
high as $3.50 per half strap but
common sold at S3@4.50.
About 5000 cars of citrus fruits
remain to be shipped from the State.

TRUCKERS MAY "CLEAN UP"
Eight Crates of Peppers Brought
Grower Fifty-Onc Dollars.

Reports from the surrounding ter
ritory Indicate that practically all
the truck crops that were damaged
by the cold spell of March first have
completely recovered and are now
growing and producing in a phen-
omenal way.
Generally speaking, truckers who
are shipping now seem to be "clean-
ing up" one trucker, II. L. Blakely
received $51 for eight crates of pep
pers, this amounting to about $6.4O
crate after deducting freight, dray-
age and commissions. Beans, too.
will bring good returns.
While considerable damage was
done to truck crops by the frost of
March first, these crops removed
from the protection of the bay suffer
ing the most, the damage now ap-
pears to be less than was at first esti-
mated, and according to reports fr<m
all parts of the state printed in the
last issue of the New York Packer
this was the case in many other sec
tlons. Local truckers whose toma-
toes were nipped have been fortunate
in being able to secure enough plants
to reset the fields when required
and if the damage to the young to-
matoes is as great as the number of
kilograms received here asking for
plants would indicate, local truck
erS whose fields produced heavily
have good reason to expect high
prices.
Commenting upon the recent cold
snap, the Packer says: Reports
from shippers having crops to move
are very encouraging in face of the
heavy freeze that swept the state
March /. AS is always the case the
first reports over-estimated the dam
age actually done. The Packer Of
flee is daily receiving reports from
sections where there are
shipments going out daily In spite |
of the big damage in the Miami sec
ton, the tomato movement is yet so
heavy that shippers are unable to |
secure sufficient refrigerator cars to |
safely load and carry the shipments !
In all probability this difficulty will |
be eliminated as more cars are sup
piled"

Obstreperous Guest.

Last week Marshal Lipscomb had
as his guest at the towns palatial
hostelry one Solomon, who was ac-
cused of purloining suit of clothes
at Wauchula. Mr.. Solomon, after
being conducted to his suite at the
towns lodging house, began to
evince symptoms of nervousness
which soon took a violent form,
Solomon acting in a manner not at
all in keeping with the conduct that
might be expected of man of such
impressive name. The marshal had
taken the mans effects before lock-
ing him up, this equipment consist
ing of hyperdermic. Mr.. Lips
comb OWNED the cause of the pris-
oner's unseemly demeanor and after
it was returned to him and he had
taken shot" consented to be taken
to the county Jail, happy as lark in
springtime.

Shot in the Back

Joseph Summeralls was found
dead at his camp, about six miles
southwest of Arcadia, Saturday af,
ternoon, March sixth, with a gunshot
wound in his back. There is evi-
dence that he was killed the day pre-
ceding, his dogs having eaten a part
of the dead mans flesh and mutila-
ted his face. According to the De-
Scto County News, 20-guage shot
gun wadding was found nearby; a
search was made at the home of Hen
ry Langford and a pair of shoes that
exactly fitted the tracks found at the
scene of the supposed murder and a
20-guage shotgun were found in the
house. Gilbert Langford, a son of
Henry Langford, admitted that the
shoes were his and that lie visited
Thursday night. These
clues brought about Gilbert Lang
ford's arrest and he was brought to
jail Monday night but was released
under heavy bond. Accord
ing to the News, Summeralls had
been accused of stealing hogs and
this is thought to have provided a
motive for the murder.

A special meeting of the Board Of
County Commissioners was held in
the court house at Arcadia last
Thursday, March 18th, for the pur.
pose of canvassing returns from the
special election held in district two
on March sixth to determine whether
bonds should be issued for the con
struction of roads and bridges in that
district. The canvass revealed that
total of II votes were cast, IA for
and three against the issuance of
bonds. The commissioners ordered
that the bonds be issued and that tax
sufficient to take care of interest and
fund be levied.
County Agent Tillman made a de-
tailed report of the part taken by De-

price of the hotel was Mr.. Payne
said that he did not care to make
that public, but showed a represen-
tative of the Herald an agreement
that leaves no doubt that the trans
fer of the property to him by D. H.
Thomas, who was presumed to be
the owner before Mr.. Payne, is
bona fde one.
All Punta Gordans are delighted
that the hotel is now in the hands of
a man in whom all place the utmost
confidence, and it is safe to say that
if called upon all would contribute
to a fund to be used to erect mon
ument to Mr.. Payne, one man having
suggested the erection of a monu-
ment as means of showing the
towns appreciation of the man who
relieved it Of the greatest obstacle

The dance given by the local pos
Of the American Legion last Friday
night was quite a success from a
social standpoint, quite a number oi
young people from Arcadia, Fort
Ogden, Fort Myers and other places
being present. There was a little
hitch in getting the music, but Jack
Waltmire took the offensive and sent
car to Arcadia to bring the musi-
clans, who arrived about 9:45 and
from that time until 1880 a. m. dane
ing was enjoyed. Refreshments were
served and all seemed to enjoy the
occasion, many expressing the hope
that this might be the first of many
such affairs to follow.

WOULD BRING and HOLD
THE WEATHER. TOURISTS
Golf Has Contributed to Building
of Other Towns by Bringing
and Interesting Men
of Wealth

Definite steps toword securing a
golf course and country club for
Punta Gorda were taken at a special
meeting of the Commercial Club
Monday night, the meeting being at
tended by a large number of interest
ed citizens.
Louis C. Lessig, of PottstCwn, Pa,
was the first speaker and ne announc-
ed that the Hotel Punta Gorda is
now the property of Ray Payne and
that Mr.. Payne contemplated the
expenditure of large sum in paint
ing, repairing. adding to and general
| ly undermining the hotel, and stated
that whether or not the citizens pro-
vided a golf course and country
club would have considerable bear
ing upon the amount to be expended
upon the hotel.
c. NJ. Carrier was the next speaker
and made a strong plea for the golf
course, and his words were not idle
ones, for before finishing he started
the subscription list for the project
by pledging $1,000, which vas i'm
mediately covered by like amount
by Mr.. Le2sig. These were the only
subscriptions received at this meet
ing, but other money has been sub
scribed and there is little, if any,
doubt that the golf course and coun-
try club is a practically assured thing.
In announcing the sale of the
hotel, Mr. LeSsig made it riain to
the meeting that the success of Mr..
Payne's enterprise depends almost
entirely upon the attitude of citizens
and their libera,ity toward securing
a golf course, saying that it would
be impossible for Mr.. Payne to
make big success of the hotel with
out golf course, and that golf
course without a modern hotel that
can cater to devotees of the game
would be useless.
The matter was discussed at some
length and in detail and President
Rountree appointed a committee to
handle the entire matter and make
a report to a special meeting of the
club. C. NJ. Carrier, f. NJ. Cooper,
l.. T. Farmer, w. R. DeLoach and T.
c. Crosland were appointed on this
and they met Tuesday
afternoon to go over the matter with
Mr.. Payne, of whom they asked pos
tive assurance that the sale was a
bona fide one and that the improve
ments necessary to make the hotel an
asset to the town will be made. Mr..
Payne gave this assurance, telling
the committee that he had invested
his all in the hotel and that it was
up to him to make a success of it or
face practical ruin.
1t is likely that the golf course
and country club will be financed by
an incorporation and sale of stock
in the corporation, and that every
citizen of the town will be given an I
opportunity to subscribe, the money
put into the course and club house
