Shaw’: was a Virginian, and set: tled in Florida, near the mouth of the Manatee River, about) where Palma Sola is located. His son, William, was born there, who also owned Shaw's Point at the mouth of the river. There was an In- dien shell mound and cattle dock just around ‘he bend on the scuth side. Captain George Aldersiade used to load cattle on his schooner Matchless there, he being in the butcher business in Key West, I remember weil when Senator Stephen RK. Mallory, secretary of the Navy in Jefferson Davis’ cab- inet, came to Key West to see my father, when he was informed that he was near his end, and remained in our house until his death, Feb- euary 15, 1872, having drawn up his will there. Before returning home he al- most persuaded Captain Shaw io focate in Pensacola, telling him that he could imerease his hank account considerably by so doing Captain Shaw's mother was New Yorker, a sister of George W. Storrs, the famous boat builder, who buil. the yacht “America,” and took her to England in 1858, entered her in the Queen's Cup | [Race around the Isle of Wight, | which she won. When Queen Victoria and the/| Prince of Wales, father of the | present king, made inquiries con-| jeerning the race, they were in-| | formed that the little black yacht, | America,” wes winning, and the | est of the fleet of yachts nowhere | nm sight; she collapsed, and re- turned to Buckingham Palace, lit-| tle dreaming that “America” could | produce anything that could whip! the proud Mistress of the Sea in; war or sport, and they have been} trying ever since to get the “mug” , back.

WHAT IS NEWS? EWS! What is it? It is the stir of life that marks the difference between a living world and a dead planet. It is Le scans of. See stoes machin- ery in motion. It is thes; auge of progress. It is the backgrouind oral thinking all plate ning and all knowledge of human affairs. When paper leaves the presses imprinted with the news, it is an inert material no longer But an active force. Up to within the past few generations, exchange of reports has been chiefly by word of mouth. It was principally for this purpose that men gathered in coffee houses in the cities of Europe and America, and even today the gossip is reasonably sure of willing ears. But knowledge of modern happenings mainly depends upon the printed page. There is a } constantly swelling volume of news, which grows with every increase in the range of human activities. The modern newspaper has been developed as the means for its transmission. Therefore, whatever other fictions a newspaper may exercise— | advisory, educational, political, social or economic—all are based. upon | its prime function of reporting the news. If the newspaper have value as a protector of popular rights, it is because it is able to keep before the people the actions of their officials as they occur and thus give the public an opportunity, when necessary, to protect its interests, Man is today living in an Age’of News of which earlier generations never dreamed. He stands on a high mountain overlooking “The king- doms of'the world” and before him unrolls the immeasurable panos rama of human life, He sees it in its nobility and its meanness, its triumphs and its failures—-for all is life, and the honest mind cannot? ignore truth in any form.
