This tragic story teaches— . but what’s the use? She and an innumerable host of her dear sisters will continue to put temptation in the path of the poor, weak purse- snatcher and other light-fingered gentry, and when such cases are called for trial in the “High Chan- cery of Heaven,” as the old-time lawyers used to sonorously roll it out, perfect equity would apportion the penalty between the tempted and the temptress. PSS NERS Quoting the Telegram on the new plan of the Florida commission to raise funds for a State exhibit at San Francisco, the Clearwater Sun adds: ' “That is all very nicely written. May we inquire how much the Tele- gram has subscribed to the fund? The Sun makes it a point never to endorse any project of this nature, calling upon others to support it, without it first makes a liberal con- tribution. It isn’t fair.” You may. We haven’t subscribed a cent thus far, but when some nice girl brings around one of those classic Florida dollars and asks us to invest, we intend to plunge right then and there to the fuil extent solicited and wear the ornament, along with our numerous other med- als earned in war and peace, on all gala occasiongs when proud personal display is the proper caper. Unlike the Sun, we don't fecl called on to put up ‘“‘a liberal contribution” to every public project we endorse, for which money is needed, for we en- dorse so many worthy schemes tend- ing to the amelioration of human conditions and the progress of civ- ilization that such a policy would keep us dead broke and increasingly in debt through all our days. And besides, our simple moral support for any righteous cause 13 always considered so valuable that it is generally preferred to a cash con- tribution, and we are always will- ing to acquiesce in that sensible view of the case. But, as above stated, we shall not hesitate to plunge a whole dollar's worth when the right girl comes around to sell us that classic souvenir coin. Vive la Florida exhibit at Frisco! A bas le knocker! O —eictas FLAGLER'S DREAM SOON TO BE REALIZED On Tuesday afternoon (Sept. 22) next, the Florida East Coast Rail- way Co.'s carferry steamer, Henry M. Flagler, will be launched from the Cramp shipyards near Philadel- phia and the Telegram acknowl- edges the receipt of a formal invi- tation to be present. This is the boat that is to ferry the carg across the sea from HRy West to Havana, the biggest enter- prise of its kind the world has ever known and it will make it possible for the traveler to get in a Pullman at New York city and ride through to Havana without change of cars. Among the wonderful achievements of a wonderful age this must take high rank, and to the genius and energy and executive capacity of that wonderful man, Henry M. Flagler, must the credit be given. It was the dream of his life to do this thing, and while Le did not live to see it, his was the concep- tion and his the master mind that planned the details and provided the means to execute them. .. 25 Park is good and clean. He| is ambitious in a quiet gentle- manly way. Hie has the poise and calm of a morning-glory. He refusese to fuss with you.| He attends strictly to his own business. He has no jagged corners. Everybody he passes near the colossal oak trees in front of the Winthrop palace in Tallahassee and his secret soul salutes them as brothers. Those| oak trees and Park have many | things in common—chiefly this: they do not get in the way, of other trees or other people. Park is like a deep ship loaded with wheat sailing the Pacific Ocean—useful and peaceful and pleasant. He doesn’t understand why we elected him attorney-general and then governor. He won- ders about it occasionally. He sees many reasons why others cught to have been given high honors. It happens that every- thing he has asked of the peo- ple has been given him and so he assumes that they will give him the senatorship. But if vou, reader, were to defeat him he would not be wounded! He enjoys life like a morning-glory or an oak tree enjoys it. His power is that he is good and clean and straight and nor- mal and conventional. He an- tagonizes you no more than a sunrise. It is as useless to rail at him and double your fist as it would be to snarl at and threaten the Milky Way. Albert is like Park in his broad and deep appeal to the people. Each represents an ideal of the people. A part of Governor Tram- mell’s power is his sensitiveness to public opinion and the in- The man of God whose sole pleas- ure is to frustrate the well-meant plans of decent people, is preparing to rake the devil’'s fire upon his own pate.—Orange County Citizen. Surest thing you know. But who is he? Tell us all about him if it's not libelous and contrary to the set- tled policy of coservative journal- ism. s O s bty The following from a highly val- ued source is so handsomely said that we won't resist the temptation to reproduce it, although it concerns the Telegram only incidentally. Says the Orlando Reporter-Star: “The Reporter-Star is none the lesg sincere in making tardy men- tion of the change of management (:‘f the Dade City Banner, that pa- per now being in charge of young “Will” Hetherington, who is the son of hig father, the man who has made the Lakeland Telegram fam- ous. The young man's well-timed editorial introduction to the people of Dade City shows that he has a level head and possesses his father's talent in a marked measure. Some young men are handicapped by be- ing sons of distinguished sires, but young Hetherington has weaned himself away from the patermul shelter to make wealth and fame for himself, and we have no doubt| that he will be successful. He will be unquestionably if the good wish- es of the State press count for any- thing.” CAMP MEETING. The annual camp meeting of the church of God will be held on the Camp Grounds in Fortj Meade, Fla.,, October 2 to 11,| 1914. Able ministers will be pres- ent to expound Ged's word in its fullness and purity. Come andi hear the word preached in the| power and demonstration of the| Spirit as in days of yore. Full salvation, faith, unity divine healing and other interesting Bi- ble subjects will be treated. An important feature of this| meeting will be General Salva- tion Work and Divine Healing Services. Location: The Camp Ground is located in a nice grove right in' Fort Meade, only about one hali mile from the railroad sta- tion and two blocks from Broad street. Boarding House: A boarding house will be run on the meal ticket plan, a charge of 10 cents per meal being made for all ex- cept children under five years of age; except the Sunday dinner which will be 25¢ all over five years of age. Everybody invited. 2 s Come' mewmml fluence healthy public opinion has on his conduct. A part of Governor Gilchrist’s power is his immobility to pub- lic opinion. Park is like Mar- cus Aurelus, Albert like Julius Caesar. Caesar was intensely compet- itive, individual, daring, heroic; his life one long battle, and his death the third most splendid in history— slaughtered in the cap- itol by the daggers of envious enemies. Park is more divine than hu- man, Albert more human than divine. Albert is gloriously outspok- en; majestically natural; heroic- ally simple; grandly democratic.

Alliance for Governor Gilchrist! Park is hidden from us by veil on veil of conventionality. Waller walks unpretentiously along the sidewalk of Punta Gorda with a Tampa Morning Tribune in his hand explaining the effect of preparedness and celerity in war, to his friend, the fisherman or the farmer, each giving and taking sharp words. Who will win? Park or Al- bert? and enjoy a feast of heaveénly grace and spiritual power with the children of God. All need- ing help in soul or body are es- pecially invited to come. Let all who can come prepared to care for themselves by bringing comforts, mattress-ticks, pillows and towels. Arrangements will be made to care for all who can- ‘not care for - themselves. No cate fees or charge for admis- sion. For further particulars address JESSE BOLTON, or J. W. KEEN. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS (Furnished by the Security Abstract and Title Co.

The particular Nike or figure used upon the Dollar was made with hands and arms as any other statue¢ It is not known for a certainty just where it was located, but 1t was probably from Athens or on the island of Cypress. It is to- day located in the Louvre 1n Paris. This particular figure 13 a representation of \"ic_tory standing upon the prow of an ancient Grecian war ship. Sh.e‘ is armless and headless and it was from this particular statuel in Paris that the figure on the Florida Dpllar was taken. Th.c facts as to where and when this winged Florida in the great art galler yare not available. The statue was made over twenty-two hundred years ago and at some period in the his- tory of the world during that time it was knocked down from| its pedestal and the head and arms were broken off. Of all the Nikes in existence this is the finest wor kof art. Art critics declare that more life and ener-| gy are shown in the lines of this) figure than in the work of any known sculptor. It is the figure of a woman in heavy drapery standing on the prow of a ship and facing a heavy wind blow- ing across the Mediterranean.! It has been copied by sculptors| of all nations for the past twen-! ty-two centuries and the critics, declare that it has never been} surpassed in its particular tyle| of beauty and tecnique. i On the Florida Dollar this Nike, or winged-figure of Vic- tory, is represented as standing! on the prow of the ship passing through the Panama canal. Tt typifies the victory of American energy oer the great lobstacles| encountered i nthe construction' of this great waterway. The| figure represents the highest, point attained by ancient Cre-' cian sculptors. | | | .. W. Bates, to R. D. Smith. L. W. Bates to R. D. Smith. Sessoms Tnvestment Co. to John R. Stranger.
