American Methods in Holland.

Methods of the American milkman
have been applied to The oil business
In Belgium and Holland by an Ameri-
can oil company. Through its Bel
gium company it is marketing oil
products in those countries in bottles
In the past, distribution has been in
cans and drums, involving larger pur.
chases by the consumer at one time
Recently this company introduced the
quart bottle and the dog-cart delivery

DAVIS DIDN'T WEAR
A WOMAN'S DRESS
After Fifty-Seyen Years, an Union
Veteran Refutes Ancient Slander
On President of the Con-
federacy

Spencer, Ohio, May 10.-(By the
Associated Press)-Fifty-seven years
ago today Jefferson Davis, president
of the Confederate States, was taken
prisoner by the Fourth Michigan Cav
airy near Irwinsville. Ga. Today
Thomas Hunter, seventy-nine, Union
veteran and one of the two living
members of the capturing party, re-
counted "reminiscences of the period.
Davis was not attired in feminine ap-
parel when the troops surrounded
him, historical statements to the con-
trary notwithstanding. He wore a
gentleman's morning robe over his
regular clothes, Hunter said, and had
on no women's belongings.

Men of Genius by No Means an
Unhealthy Lot.
Lives of Many of the Worlds Greatest
Men Show That Mental Power and
Strength Go Together.

The popular idea that geniuses are
usually physical weaklings or men Of
poor health is vigorously combated by
Prof. Rudolph NJ. Binder of New York
university. AS a matter of fact, says
Professor Bender, according to the
New York Sun, it is only because there
has been so much comment about the
comparatively few physical weaklings
who were geniuses that the tradition
has grown that exceptional mental
power and bodily weakness are related
conditions.
Declaring his belief that there is no
weakling genius who would not have
been a greater one had he been of
sound body, Professor Binder points
out that most Of the worlds greatest
geniuses were not only healthy, but
strength
illustrations of this could be ex-
tended indefinitely" said Professor
Binder, "but it is necessary to men
ton only a few shining examples
down the ages. Let's begin with Soc
rates. The great philosopher served
as a hoplite, which means that he was
member of what we In modern terms
would designate as shock troops. He
was seventy years old when he was
condemned to drink the hemlock.
Coming down many centuries, Sir
Isaac Newton lived to be eighty-hve,
and was strong and healthy and hard
worker till within a short time Of his
death. Darwin was born with a rug
ged constitution, which he ruined
by his failure to care for 1t, but II
enabled him to accomplish a remark
able amount of work before he died
at the age Of seventy-three.
"If proof were needed that Herbert
Spencer was born with an iron constf-
tuition it would be provided by that In
cident of his boyhoOd when at the age
Of thirteen he walked 4S miles one
day, At. the second and 20 the third,
and with very little food during the
three days. Spencer is another man
who injured his health by the lack Of
care Of himself, but IL he had not been
naturally strong he would not have
lived to be eighty-three.
even Shakespeare who died at If
ty-two, might be said to have lived q
good life considering the amount Of
work he did as playwright, actor and
manager. Goethe, an exceedingly busy
man, was In good health almost 10
the time of his death at eighty-three.
"Of tbe<four probably most famous
Italians Dante lived to be only fifty
! eight, but his life was one OF arduous
| labor; Leonardo da Vinci, an athlete
who outstripped far younger men in
feats of strength, was nearly sixty
seven; Michelangelo worked furiously
most of his ninety years, and Galilee
enjoyed good health till his death al
seventy-eight.
'Tt was because. the population al
q whole was strong in body that Ath
ems produced such a remarkable mum
| Der of geniuses In the days Of It's glory
and IL we want to increase the mum
Der Of geniuses in the world today the
way to accomplish 1t Ii to improve
the health of all the people"

CORNWALL LAND OF FAIRIES
People Of That English County Firmly
Believe in Existence of the
"LittIe People,

A Cornish handbook recently pub
lished mentions that there are nve
distinct varieties Of fairies In Corn
wall and enumerates them as follows:
The Small People" who were sup
posed to be the pre-C Christian inhab-
itants; these are gradually fading
away.
The "Spriggans," attached to cairns.
cromlechs and other ancient monu-
ments, with which 1t was unlucky 70
meddle.
The 'Piskies," full of mischief and
finding great JOY in leading mortals
astray.
The "Buccas," spirits Of the mines.
associated In local legend with men
from the East, doomed to work under
ground until the Resurrection.
The Brownies" kindly and good,
the spirits Of the household, ever ready
to do what they could to assist man
kind.
There are numerous legends Of the
adventures Of mortals with these
fairies and only a few years ago men
returning from Redruth, Truro, Penz-
ance and some other market town
would turn their coats inside out be-
fore venturing to cross the wild moors
or downs, In order to guard against
being led away by the Piskies.
Once a miner, working In one Of
the levels, heard his name called dis
tfnctly. He was afraid to follow the
voice and went on with his work. His
name was called again and this time
more vehemently. The miner threw
down his hammer and went TO invegtt-
gate. Almost Immediately mass OF
rock fell on the spot where he had
been working. The warning had saved
his life.
The Buccas or Knockers were %
feared at one time that people who
had to pass disused mine after dark
took special precautions 20 prevent
their presence being known.

STETSON'S NINE
S|DE-STEPPED
Ocala Baseball Team Will Go to High
Springs and Hopes Some of The
Fans Will Trail Along
IL. T. IL

Secretary Cecil Bryant of the Ocala
Baseball Association had some bad
news this morning. Stetson phoned
that they could not come over here
this week to play two games that
were scheduled for Thursday and FRI
day. This was the last chance for
Ocala to secure a game at home for
this week so the team is going to
High Springs and play two games,
Thursday and' Friday. There will be
no game in Ocala this week but the
roads are good to High Springs if any
fans want to follow the team.
DIAMOND DUST
The practice yesterday afternoon
showed up well. We have two new
pitchers in Ocala and both show up
we'll Williams of Wauchula comes
with record of many games won
last year and he played against the
best teams of the southern end of the
state. Williams licked Lightfoot's
fast Fort Myers nine on two occas-
ions last year. We know what Fort
Myers had and if Williams can lick
them he must be pretty good. He hit
we'll in practice yesterday and spe-
cializes in pitching those tantalizing
little peeky slow balls like Brown
used against US in the first Lake City
game.
Whitney of Orlando is the other
twirler who is here for a try-out. He
is a left-hander and has real steam.
When it comes to hitting he has the
goods. In yesterdays practice he
slapped two over center field fence,
batting them little west Of first
base. (The infeld was not rolled
and they couldn't bat from the home
plate).
A third pitcher, Red Ulrich of West
Palm Beach, is expected in Ocala to-
day to try for the team. Red has the
reputation of being a red hot short
stop as well as a pitcher of no mean
ability, and would be decided asset
to the team in case we were forced to
pitch Taylor in any series of games.
Another carload of clay has been
spread on the infeld. 1t looks like a
yound Polo Grounds now. 1t has been
scrsped and rolled and is as smooth as
parlor floor. When a ball starts
down the line now it goes like an ex4
pres strain. 1t will really be too fast
diamond until the grass grows thru
the clay and forms a sod infield.
The new uniforms are here and
were worn at practice yesterday
Frank Harris actually has suit that
he can get into without holding his
breath. The suits are gray with a
green pin stripe and the stockings
are green and white.
The fence around the park is al
most finished. By the next game there
will be very little space left for the
tightwads to sneak through.

FATS VS.. LEANS
In Spite of Absence of the Big Team,
There Will be a Most Interesting
Game Tomorrow Afternoon
IL. T. IL

Tomorrow afternoon the baseball
fans of Ocala will be given a rare
treat. For 25 cents they can see a
real game between Ocala's heftiest
and skinniest men, gate receipts to go
to the help Of the ball team. Such
shapes as W. NJ. Davidson, Fl. C. Do
zier, C. K. Sage, Jake Gerig, Shorty
Keefe, James Gilmore, William
Thomas and the like can be seen in
ridiculous contrast at this game for
only tWo-bits.
