WHALES WASHED
ASHORE ON THE
EAST COAST

Palatka, Sept %. Twenty.six
whales, in two different herds, washed
up on the beach at Ocean City, on the
coast, yesterday afternoon.
The first herd contained fourteen
and the second twelve head, about
half mile separating them.
The largest in either herd was
about eighteen feet long and small
est measured about five feet in length.
The amphibians evidently were try.
ing to get away from school Of
swordfish which, it is said, was seen
in the shoal waters off Ocean City.
When the tide went out the whales
were left high and dry and when it
came in again they were too exhaus-
ted to fight their way through the
shallow water. They we're all killed.
Hundreds of people were attracted
to the beach. 1t was novelty at
first, but as soon as the monsters
were dead and the vultures began
circling the ocean front dwellers have

MAYBE NO APPLES, BUT
LOTS OF OTHER GOOD
THINGS GROW IN FLORIDA

Even il Florida does not produce
apples, she does produce enough 9th
er fruits so that we should scarcely
miss the apples" remarked the Lake.
land Advertiser. The newspaper is
not altogether right on this score for
everybody likes apples, and they are
healthful and useful In various ways,
but 1t is all right to let some other
section have the honor Of raising
them. Florida is willing to buy some
Of the things II needs from outside,
and apples will be bought and enjoyed
as long as they are raised North, East
and West The Advertiser, thinks
that the guava would qualify as be-
ing as valuable a fruit as the apple,
but this is not likely. The guava Is
valuable, and highly useful, but not
generally liked In Its uncooked state
by the home folks. There are some
devotees, and many who like to stay
downtown when guava jelly is being
made. But Florida does not need to
worry about not raising apples. No
other section of the country can pro-
duce citrus fruits equal to those OF
Florida, and there probably isn't a
human being existant who does not
like oranges, Florida's fruits far
oyer-balance the products of other
sections and We are rich in the pros
pect of greatly increasing them.

UNIQUE RESCUE MISSION
IN BUENOS AIRES
tBy Associated Press.l

Buenos Aires, Sept. 23.-On a
street in Buenos Aires which might
be called the backwash Of the world
Judging from the human derellcts
cast up from every stream and every
land. a North American cow puncher
Of tho old West Is conducting res
cue mission wn5re hungry children
are I'd and tired souls are comforted.
He Is John Calvert de Bohun, who
says he was born on the hurricane
deck Of cayuse' in New Mexico.
Cowboy, Jockey, wanderer, and fln-
ally ordained minister, Bohuns life
has been such as to make him one
with the dead wood that drifts into
his mission, as he tells his story, and
his redemption to bodily and spiritual
health a parallel to that Of some OF
his people. There was time, he says,
when American whiskey was no long
er strong enough for him, so that he
satisfied his appetite with Chinese
whiskey, which is like drinking mixed
turpentine and banana oil,
But through the years came glimps-
es to him OF something better. A
touch OF remorse In Australia, good
example In Europe, the sight OF a
woman who reminded him OF one "he
used to know" the influence OF Fa-
ther Damien, who gave his life to the
lepers OF Hawaii and who was so
loved that there was scarcely dry
eye in grog shop or ships cabin from
Manila to Melbourne when he died,
such things made him wonder. And
finally worn and world-knowing
when he drifted back to that New
Mexico from which he had started and
found "Tom the Devil" preaching In
stead OF running the old gambling
game and later saw others follow In
his steps, Bohun says that the light
camem to him. He became minis
ter.
Bohuns mission Is located in q
building something in appearance
like San Antonio's Alamo, and with a
history as eventful as those who re-
pair to It. Built for Masonic lodge
