Special Dispatch to The Star. MIAMI, BEACH, Fla, January 29.— Palm Beach, Senator Harding 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 two courses here adjoining the Flamingo Hotel. The fishing grounds are twenty-five miles away in Caeser Creek, named for Black Caeser the pirate, who, in the days of old, used to operate in these waters. Caeser's headquarters were on Adam's Key and it is there the senator will make his fishing base at a club or~ visitors to Miami Beach. The ancient iron ring to which Caeser at one time { made fast his boats. was siolen from the key about two years ago, but the planks to which it was attached are still there. While at Adam’'s Key Senator Harding's _nearest neighbor will be “Parson” Jones, a famous colored man in these parts, who lives on Porgy Key. The parson, many years &go, moved out to ghis barren key and took complete possession of it. There he reigns supreme today. The key was a barren coral igland, but some one told Parson Jones there was a EVENING M A MOVIE STAR!

The old parson puzzled his head for a long time as to just how he could plant lime trees on a coral strand. Then an inspiration came to him. He blasted tree holes in the coral rock, imported a lot of fertile soil to fill the holes and planted trees in the soil. Today it is said that his income from limes amounts to between $15,- 000 and $20,000 a year, despite the disappearance of the one-time popu- lar gin rickey. Excited Over Visit. Parson Jones, who may or may not have been a preacher, is reported by the fisher folk as greatly excited over the visit of the President-elect to his part of the world, and he is planning to pay Mr. Harding a visit. No one else is likely to disturb the isolation of the presidential fishing party, for Adam’s Key is a lonely spot and few pilots know the way to fit. The Frelinghuysen houseboat will be left here while the fishing party is on. but Senator Rrelinghuysen himself will be a member of the Isaak Walton crew. . Senator Fall and Harry M. Daugh- erty, slated to be the next Attorney General, will leave the Harding party here, Senator Fall _returning ‘to Washington and Mr. Daugherty pro- ceeding to Columbus, Ohio, to wind up his law affairs there befors enter- ing the cabinet. There is every rea- son to believe that Senator Fall him- :e)f has been tendered a portfolio in the cabinet during the cruise through the coral-sheltered ' waters of the Florida east coast. If he go desires the senator from New Mexico can have the portfolio of the Interior. Mr. Harding has wanted a_ far-western ‘{man for this post. Senator Fall is one of his closest personal friends, and at one time was sald to be under consideration for Secratary of State. Benator ledln{ would like to have Senator Fall-in his official family, for 'he values his advice most highly. JFame Awaits Snared Fish. Mr. Harding insists, however, he s on a-pleasure trip at this time and that he is thinking more of play than of matters. of state, and so definite announcements aa to the cabinet still are far in the dis Consi ’lh the - A 5 elmm aquarium “hefe _a fi.
