BAPTIST TRAINING CLASS

State Secretary o. K. Armstrong of
Jacksonville, director of the Baptist
Young Peoples work in Florida, ar
rived in ocala yesterday and began
his course of lectures at the Baptist
church last night A fine group of
young people greeted him and entered
enthusiastically into a serious study
of methods as presented by the visit
ing lecturer. Tonight at s o'clock and
tomorrow night at the same hour
Secretary Armstrong viii be heard
again. 1t is a real treat to hear this
specialist and his visit to Ocala means
great deal to the young people Of
the Baptist church. Other engage
ments compel Mr.. Armstrong to
shorten his engagement here and he
will leave after the Wednesday night
meeting.

OFFICERS ON THE ALERT

Sheriff Thomas and his deputies are
busy these days-not much happen
ing, but they try to pounce on it be-
fore it happens, which saves much
trouble.
Joe Hunter, white, escaped convict,
walking up the Seaboard, hoping to
reach the Georgia line, was nabbed
and is waiting in Jail for an officer
from Raiford. He had escaped from
Wimauma
Mary Blunt, colored, selling shine
at Oak, is also in durance.
Theodore Green and Hilliard Clinch,
also colored and also of Oak, had a
pistol, a seed-sized gatling, which,
their sense of humor being well de-
veloped, they used to shoot into the
quarters. Other people couldn't see
the joke and the boys are in Jail.
Jim Carter was running a still down
in the south end of the county. The
still isn't running but Jim is-at
least he was when the sheriff last saw
him. Jim left the still, two barrels
of mash and gallon of shine The
sheriff wonders if this is evidence
enough to convince a jury. 1t isn't
enough to convince some of them.
John Stancil, white, who has been
working hard near town, is wanted
for murder in Smithfeld, N. C. He
was arrested this morning. Seems
wrong to arrest a man who will work.

is THE JEFFERSON OIL &
GAS COMPANY.A FAKE7

In view of certain articles and edi-
torials recently published in the Ocala
Evening Star, we deem it nothing less
than simple justice to those citizens
of this, Marion county, and other
counties in this state who have, thru
US, purchased stock in the Jefferson
Oil & Gas Company to reply to same.
While we will concede that there
have been in the past many fake stock
propositions put on the market and
many good people have been deceived
into buying them and as a result lost
their money, it does not mean that ev-
cry concern that offers its stock to be
sold by popular subscription is fake
or swindle.
While the paper did not, for very
special reasons, designate any partic-
ular company or salesman, the arti-
cles are such as to do harm to good
and worthy companies offering their
stock for sale through their represen-
tatives, and especially to the citizens
of this state who have subscribed for
stock in such companies.
The Jefferson Oil & Gas Company
by its general manager. Mr.. F. d. Nc
Arthur, made application and COM
piled with all the requirements Of Law
and was given a permit by your
comptroller, Ernest Amos. to sell $780,
900 of its stock. In addition to this,
the company paid the expenses Of one
of the states best citizens to go out
to Texas and inspect the property Of
the company. He went and satisfied
himself as to our holdings and we Of

made upon his return

We wish to thank the people of
Ocala and Marion county for the pa
tronage they have given US at the
Quality Fruit Store, but as the rush
for homes in Marion county continues
to go merrily on, due largely from the
persistent advertising of this county
by the E. A. Strout Farm Agency,
we are closing the store and giving
the front space to E. A. Strout Farm
Agency, of which / am representa-

grow and prosper. If you have a
home for sale or wish to purchase one,
call on US and let's talk it over.

ton which may be decided upon by
