VALUABLE JEwELRY STOLEN

The friends of Mr.. and Mrs. c. S.
Cullen are sympathizing with them
for the loss of some valuable jewelry,
evidently taken by members of that
class of undesirable tourists that dur
ing the last few seasons have become
so numerous in Florida. The jewelry
was stolen some weeks ago, but no
mention made of the loss, as the po-
lice had hope of finding the thieves.
They have decided now, however, that
the robbers are out of reach. The loss
of the jewels is regretted by Mr.. and
Mrs. Cullen more for their senti-
mental than. their monetary value,
tho the latter is considerable. The
Cullens, like other Ocala people, were
so little accustomed to the necessity
of guarding against thieves that they
never locked their house up unless
they went somewhere for a protract-
ed stay, and it was during a brief
absence from home that the jewels
were taken. 1t is time that everybody
was locking up houses and keeping
revolvers filed for reference.

WEATHER, WE HOPE,
HAS DONE ITS WORST

The farmers Of this section are
having the most discouraging spring
they have suffered from in long
time. A comparatively mild winter
has been followed by a long, dry
spring, retarding planting of some
crops and cultivation of others. A
brief season Of rain several weeks
ago caused seed to sprout, but the
plants were hardly above ground
when a cold spell cut them down or
blighted them. A great deal of dam
age was done, many farmers having
to replant entirely. The cold spell
was followed by several dry days dur
ing which strong winds prevailed,
doing great harm to everything above
ground. This was followed by an
other cold snap with a elimination
of forty degrees this morning. We
think all the harm that can be done
has been done, unless a rainy season
sufficient to float arks sets in.
The farmers have bravely and pa
tiently set in to replant and hope to
soon make the old county again bios
som as a rose.

GAINESVILLE HIGH. II:
OCALA HIGH SCHOOL. ?

The Gainesville high school base
ball team came to Ocala Saturday aft
ernoon and went back with ten bloody
scalps taken from the unresisting
heads of the Ocala high school boys.
The game belonged to the visitors
from start to finish. They had o. Il.
S. outclassed at every point of the
game. Maxwell Thomas, pitching for
OcaIa high until the eighth inning,
delivered free passes to first base to
II batters and gave up nine hits TO
the visitors. Wilkes went into the
box in the eighth but although he
allowed no hits or runs could not
make up for what was already done.
The errors on the part of the Ocala
team, coupled with their inability to
think when they had the ball in their
hands, accounts for the runs Gaines
vile made. The fact that Ocala only
made two runs is easily traced to the
door Of one Van Sickle, who pitched
stella ball for Gainesville. He did not
allow even a scratch hit during the
entire game and walked only two
men. Van is a pitcher that the
Gainesville boys ought justly TO be
proud of and we take off our hat TO
him. The following is the box score:

FEDERAL PRISONERS WILL
WORK THE STATE ROADS

Jacksonville, April 18.-Prisoners
sentenced by federal court no longer
will be permitted to take life easy in
their cells, but will be put to work on
county roads and county farms as the
result of a ruling By United States
Attorney Herbert S. Phillips. The
ruling was contained IN a letter ad-
dressed to Chairman Clark of the
Duval board of commissioners in re-
ply to one sent to Mr.. Phillips in
which Chairman Clark asked if the
county was allowed to work federal
prisoners. Mr.. Phillips letter follows:
"Under the law governing federal
prisoners sentenced IN the federal
court tn serve terms in the county
jail OF nuval county, such prisoners
are subject 70 the same treatment as
county prisoners convicted and SEN
fenced TO serve jail terms along with
county prisoners on the public high
ways or have them do any other pub
lie work that county prisoners are
employed upon"
Heretofore it has been the custom
TO permit federal prisoners sentenced
to jail terms to serve their entirC
time in jail and in frequent cases fed
eral prisoners have received term!
amounting TO more than a year o.
such confinement.

EXCHANGE TO WORK
FOR UNIFORM PACK

Determination to keep the Florida
Citrus Exchange fully equal 70 the
marketing necessities of the situation
developed by the rapidly increasing
production of grapefruit and oranges
wa sthe keynote of the conference of
local association managers several
days ago in Tampa
The meeting was preceded by an
exhibit of fruit from practically all
the exchange packing houses in the
state, intended to show how there is
uniformity Of grading. Persons pres
ent who had seen the similar exhibits
several years ago. expressed them
selves freely as deeply gratified by
the notable improvements in grade
and pack during the intervening
period
A motion to restrict the use of the
Sealedsweet trademark to certain
grades of fruit was considered at
length but failed to prevail. In the
discussion it was brought out that
Florida Citrus Exchange members
have an asset of great value in this
trade name and that practically all of
them desire to have their fruit sold
Hereunder. Further there was de-
veloped the existence of a general
disposition on the part Of growers to
recognize the Importance of growing
a better quality of fruit, and the as
surance Of better prices.
DR. Ross, chairman, made an elo-
quent speech, in which he graphically
described the adverse conditions which
had to be surmounted IN this seasons
fruit selling campaign He outlined
the problems whic hare growing out
of the greater volume of fruit that
must be marketed with each succeed
ing year.
DR.. Ross showed that the groves
now coming into bearing place upon
the exchange more and more respon-
sibility, since it is the only factor
that has advertised and demonstrated
the food and health value of Florida
grapefruit and oranges.

WILL ASK LEGISLATURE
TO PASS LOCAL OPTION
SUNDAY BASEBALL LAW

st. Augustine, April 19.-Ministers
Of st. Augustine at a meeting last
Friday protested against Sunday golf,
moving pictures, theatrical attrac-
tions and baseball and in a resolution
called upon the management of the
local baseball club to cancel a game
with a Cuban team scheduled for
Sunday. The baseball game was
played and it developed into a ten
inning, to l affair with the locals
holding the big end of the score. The
tying run was pushed across the
plate with two men down in the last
half of the ninth and after spectators
had begun to leave the park.
The Sunday baseball situation is
peculiar. A state law prohibits
games on that day but the city of
Pensacola, because of a local law en-
acted several years ago by the legis-
lature can stage them legally. On
the East Coast Sunday baseball has
been popular several years. Games
have been played here on Sunday the
last three years without interruption,
the police who always are on hand,
confning their activities to the pre-
servance of order and the keeping OF
automobiles and spectators away from
the foul lines.
From one end TO the other of the
East Coast there is strong sentiment
for Sunday baseball and efforts viii
be made at the present session of the
/ legislature to amend the laws so as
90 permit citizens locally to decide
whether they want games that day.
