Miami Beach, Fla, January z.-(Spe- cial.)-After gray, day and high. cold winds at Palm Beach, Senator Hard- ing once more was in the sunshine and balmy airs of southern Florida today. This is the southern terminus of his cruise and he expects to spend several days fishing and playing golf on the .twos courses here adjoining the F1amingo hotel.
 in Caesars creek, named for Black Caesar, the pirate, who in the days Of old used to operate in these waters. Caesars headquarters were on Adams Key, and it is there tile senator will make his fishing base at a club organ ized by a small coterie of annual wis., itors to Miami Beach. The ancient iron ring to which Caesar at one time made : fast his boats was stolen from the key iabout two years ago, but the blanks to whichEit was, attached are still there.
 "PARSON" IS SUPREME 4 While at Adams Key Senator Hard- ing's nearest neighbor will be Parson' Jones. famous negro in these parts, who lives on Porgy Key. The parson many years ago moved out to this bar ren key and took complete possession or it. There he reigns supremely. The Key was a barren coral island, but some one told Parson Jones there was fortune to be made in raising lines. The old parson puzzled his head for a long time as to just how lie could plant lime trees on a coral strand. Then an inspiration came to him. He blasted tree holes m the coral rock, imported lot of fertli- izer to fill the holes and planted the trees in the soil. Today 1t is said that his in come from Times amounts to bttween s15 900 and $2O,0oo year, despite the dis appearance of the one-time popular gm rickey.
 Parson Jones' who may or may not have ever been preacher, is reported oy the fisher folk as greatly excited over the visit of the President-elct to his part of the world, and he is planning to pay Mir. Harding visit. No one else is likely to disturb the isolation of the presidential fishing party, for Adams Kew is a lonely spot and few pssoes know the way to it. The Frelinghuysen houseboat will be left here while the fishing party is gone but Senator frenns- hupsen himself will be member or tne Izaak Walton crew.

Dauxhcrty proceeding to Columbus. 0. to wind up his law affairs there oe- More entering the cabinet There is every :, reason to believe that Senator Fall him sell. has been tendered a portfolio in the cabinet during the cruise through the coral-sheltered waters of the Flcrida east coast If he 50 desires the senator from New Mexico can have the port- folio of the interior. Mir Harding has wanted a far western man for tnis r,ast Senator Fall is one of his ctoseus personal friends, and at one time was said to be under consideration for Sec retarv of State, Senator Harding would ] like fo have Senator Fall in his official fanily. for he values his advice most highly. 2 n,easiare trip at this time, and thai ne is thinking more of play than Of mat ters of state, and so definite announce rnents as to the cabinet still are Tar m the distance.
