Use ELECTRICITY NOW TO
WELD STEEL STRUCTURE

The first steel structure ever erect
ed in the world without the aid Of
rivets or bolts has just been COM
pleted in the city OF Brooklyn. n, Y"
instead OF riveting the pieces OF steel
that form the structure. they were
welded electrically. 1t Is novel idea
and because II Is the first OF it's kind
considerable interest has been shown
during the construction work. especi-
ally as the nerve-racking noise or
riveting was entirely eliminated.
The interesting thing about electric
arc welding is not so much an indus
trial process. Since the discovery OF
the process. much progress has been
made in developing various kinds OF
equipment to make it's use more easy
and general. But the real science OF
electric arc welding lies In the human
skill behind the equipment.

SMALL ELECTRIC IRON
SOLVES TRUNK PROBLEM

Travellers are familiar with the way
the modern trunk has developed from
a sort of big packing case into a com
plete wardrobe, fitted up with
clothes hangers, on one side and
drawers on the other and compart-
ments for ones best hats. ones
clothes are vastly more presentable
than when they were packed the old
way, but still there are frills and
furbelows that need pressing, so that
modern woman carries about with her
a light three pound electric iron, but
the problem of packing il in the ward
robe trunk was more or less perplex-
ing.
Now there is a new, trunk that
makes special provision for such an
electric iron in a compartment all by
itself with strap to hold 1t firmly
in place.

II. X. Still VIII NOT

H. K. Still, who was recently NOM
mated for representative on the
county division ticket, will not be a
candidate. This does not mean that
Mr.. Still Is not county divisionist
at heart nor that his friends have
lost confidence in him, but purely for
business reasons.
When the nomination was first
mentioned to him he had doubt of be-
ing able to give it the proper atten-
tion and his company seems positive
that a man cannot do justice to the
company, the growers and the legis-
lature Mr.. L. R. Woods, the pres
ident of the company, has written
| Mr.. Still, VIII ch causes his withdraw
| al from the race. Mr.. Woods stand
| is well taken and in justice to Mr..
Still and the company we publish the
following extracts from the letter:

that you would make an excellent
representative | exceedingly regret
that we cannot comply with their re-
quest which would mean that we
would release you from contract.

voted to our business, and if you
Should run for representative, you
would nave to give up a great pOr-
tion of your time, and maybe just at
such times as we needed you most.
You could not make a good repre-
sentative unless you gave it your per-
sonal attention and thought.
mo doubt you are aware of the
fact, from the training you have gone
through, that it takes some time to
equip a man so that the owner of

the success or failure of crop with
him, also a man that we can have
confidence enough in to turn a terri |
tory over to, for territory means our
business.

that you will agree with us
that it is your duty to carry cut your

Pcrils of Census Taking

Census talier Scott Morris for this
district is about finished with his la
bors and he tells some of the perils
he went through in order to get the
names, AT one house he raped and
a man opened the front door. Nor
ris said to him, Il am the census
man." "All right, how much does it
cost?" Nothing" "All right, /
will take one" At another place
where he raped lady opened the
door and Mr.. Morris said: Lady, l
am here to enumerate you" Man" "
she replied, this is respectable
neighborhood and don't you try any
of your tricks on me-" At another
place a lady received him most gra-
cously and answered the questions
and she asked him if he had taken
the names of the neighbors next door,
the Hills. He said he had. Then he
asked her the ages of herself and
husband, and she said they were as
old as the Hills. So Mr.. Morris
wrote down "As old as the hills" and
went on his way. - Moore Haven

James Madison Driver.

After a lingering illness, James
Madison Driver passed quietly away
at the home of his daughter, Mrs.
John R. Hurton, in this city, Tues
day morning, the 9Th inst, at about
.S:15 o'clock.
His death resulted from complica-
tions, chief of which was heart
trouble. tra1eab.e to an attack of in
fluenza, whicL he sustained in Orlan-
do a few months ago. He returned
here, where he had formerly made
his home, to recuperatc, but his con-
stitution failed to rally and he was
taken to his bed again about three
weeks ago, S 'adually growing weak
er until the end came.
When it became apparent that he
could not recover, his children were
sent for and, with his faithful wife,
were with him during his last illness,
doing every thing possible to al
leviate his sufferings. But the min
istrations of loved ones, the science
of medicine and the attention of
neighbors, friends and fraternal
brethren could not prevail against
the Grim Reaper.
Mr. Driver was a native Floridian,
born in the upper part of the state in
1850. He led an active and useful
life, devoting himself to various un-
dertakings. When he came to Pun
ia Gorda number of years ago, he
first engaged in business and after
wards devoted himself to truck farm

of Archer, Mrs. r. L. Meeks of Tam

and Mr.. L. J. Driver Of Tampa.
In 1879 Mr.. Driver united with
the Christian church of which from
that time on he remained an adher-
ent; and it is comforting to his loved
ones that before he died he express
ed himself as ready and willing to
go, feeling that ell would be well.
Funeral services at the Hurton
home on Gross street were counduct-
ed by Rev. G.. w. Gatewood, assisted
by Rev. Geo. D. Rhode, at o'clock
Tuesday afternoon; and on the fol-
lowing morning the remains, prepar-
ed for burial by Undertaken Nc

the Masonic order of which deceased
was membe-, they were laid to rest
in the family burial plat. These last
sad rites We're largely attended by
friends, many of whom vert from
here in cars to Lakeland.
General sympathy is felt for the
bereaved cncc, whose chief comfort
in their hour of sorrow lies in the
Christians hope Of reunion in
