About the first of August he was
satisfied he could make a reduction
of one and one-half imills in the

determine whether or not still fur further
ther further reduction of the state millage
could be made, it was necessary for
him to take further time to gather

the assessors for this information,
and now since receiving reasonably
accurate Information from practical

ly all of the counties, the governor
has reached the conclusion that act acting

The effects of the order reducing

TOTAL ECLIPSE OF
THE SUN TODAY
Were the world a little less ad advanced,

been the wildest consternation to today
day today in Russia and thruout that part
of 'Europe embroiled in war, because
at noon there was an eclipse of the
sun that was total over a part of
(Russia and was partial over all that
part of the continent where men are
fighting.
Despite the wide-spread know knowledge

day, it may well be said that the
peasants of Central Europe and
Russia, drafted as they have been
from their 'homes and field to fight
in a war, the purpose of which tehy

the great luminary just around mid midday,
day, midday, may incite a feling of terror
that might upset the plans of the
generals.

construed as an omen, the demon demonstration

The eclipse today is the (most im important

total darkness over a strip of Russia

to the Crimea, stretching thru the
polar regions of North America thru
Scandinavia, Asia Minor, Persia and

All of Europe, a portion of Africa
and Asia and a part of North Amer America
ica America that reaches down nearly to New
York, falls within the partial eclipse,
the shadow of the penumbra. Where
the eclipse is but partial, the disc of
the moon creeps across the face of
the sun little by little, but will never
wholly obscure the orb.

Democratization of rifle shooting
among the militia of the United
States is the object of radically new
national match rule in force this
year -the rule that gives enlisted
men of ten of the twelve posts of
honor on the team. 'Ever since the
national -match was authorized by
Congress in 1903, shooting member membership
ship membership on the state and service games
alike has gone, for the most part, to
officers. Two years ago began
to spread an idea that if rifle shooting
and rifle tournaments were to serve
the cause of national defense in a
thoroughgoing manner, they must

decrease in the size of the bull's eye
is the result of the really amazing
advance in marksmanship among
both militia and service contestants
since the tournament got under way
a decade ago. Bull's eye hitting had
become so easy that it was necessary
to increase the difficulty in order to
maintain lively interest.

Col. Thurston of New York last
winter, the national board for the

that beginning this year militia in interest

that is, that just the skirmishing

Old Men Like Novels.
I asked the custodian of a large
library about the fashion in books,
says a writer in the Philadelphia
Ledger.
"Most of the men above fifty," said
he, "who come here read novels. The
young women also ask for fiction.
When it comes to. men from twenty
to fifty, many more of them want
scientific books dealing with present present-day
day present-day affairs, like politics, financial
questions and history, or books of
travel."
I asked him what the elderly wom women
en women preferred.
"Very few come." he replied.
As for poetry, thi3 custodian said
there seemed now to be no desire
whatever. Re-reading of the old po poems
ems poems does not appear to Interest elder elderly
ly elderly people, and the younger folks have
not acquired the taste for verse.

She Was Wise,
A student took a lovely young
woman to the theater the other night.
He busted himself buying the tickets
and he didn't enjoy the show much,
because he kept thinking that maybe
she would expect him to take her Into
the drug store and buy her something
before they took the car for home.
So soon as the performance was
over he said:
"Have you been reading all these
dreadful exposures of drug store bev beverages
erages beverages in the Home Muckraker? It's
awfully Interesting. Doctor Wiley tells
of how a young woman went to a soda
fountain, drank a popular drink and
dropped dead."
"How tragic!" murmured the girl,
with shining eyes. "Let's you and I
go in and take a drink and die to together!

Martin in Mr. Ned Stevens' fast car
and led out toward Lake Harris, Mr.
Munroe's car and the remainder of
the party following. Going out, two
immense new packing houses were
specially noticeable. One is operated
by the Citrus Exchange, and the
other independent. Judging by the
groves, both will have all they can
do.

Mr. Mote showed the party a lot
of fine groves, and some of his own
nurseries. Ocala knows Mr. Mot.
He was up here soon after the
freeze, making barrels for a living.
'He has made a barrel of money since
then; made it by hard work and good
management. Prosperity has not
spoiled him. He is the same genial,

Ocala also knows Editor Corley of

worked among ns over seven years,
and was one of the sqnarest, as well
as most entirely all-around printers
the Star ever knew. He is doing
well with his 'partner, Mr. Pratt;, oi

TREES AND YET MORE TREES
Matter of Duty for Every Man Who Is
Able, to Plant One in Hla
Life, at Least.
A noted philanthropist once said:
"If I knew that I should die tomorrow,
I should plant a tree today." He did
not mean that tree planting was the
eort of action to be deferred as long
as possible; he counted It rather a
deed with which one might make a
good farewell to earth and who shall
say that he was not right?
There is nothing more beautiful,
more dignified, more valuable in the
broadest sense of the word than a fine
old tree. There are few things more
lasting. The splendid cathedrals of
the thirteenth century are kept-in
condition only by constant and loving

the landscape when the corner stone
of Amiens was laid is still alive. New
ii.ngmna settlers moved elms from the
woods to their dooryards and road roadsides
sides roadsides almost three centuries ago and
the same trees are there today. The
few "cedars of Lebanon" which still
mark the site of forests from which
th i ships of Tarshish were built may
nu.nber in their thinning ranks indi individuals
viduals individuals which saw the inarch of God
frey de Bouillon, and the counter countermarch
march countermarch of Saladin.
Plant trees. Do not wait for the
government to reforest some distant
mountains. Reforest as much of your
own holdings as you may. You have
no better chance of satisfaction now
and grateful remembrance later than
may be found in planting trees.
FOR A WOODLAND PARADISE
Chicagoans Determined That Their
City Shall Be Abundantly Sup Supplied
plied Supplied With Trees.
. In view of the advance which city
beautification has made during the
last few years, especially in Chicago,
Arbor day has a definite significance.
Tree planting exercises have been
held in all parts of the city, about two
hundred and fifty thousand white
pine seedlings being provided for t
ja,iua, ya.ca.at 101s ana roadways. Last
year 200,000 elm seedlings were plant planted;
ed; planted; the year before 300,000 Russian
mulberries, and in 1911 a total of 280 280-000
000 280-000 catalpa seedlings were given a
chance to grow. If all these grew
Chicago would be, not a garden city,
but a forest city. The mortality rate
luuu5 titseunngs, nowever, is almost
as great as it is among slum babies.
If a reasonable fraction of these
young trees grow to maturity Chicago
will be in time a woodland paradise.
An authority on arboriculture as ap applied
plied applied to cities says the ratio should be
one living shade tree to every five in inhabitants.
habitants. inhabitants. In the absence of a tree
census it is impossible to say how
near Chicago approaches this ideal.
Be that as it may, the principle of
Arbor day is wholesome. It i3 but
one phase of the general tendency of
the day to instill into the children an
instinct for some of the finer things
that older folks have thought they
were too busy to cultivate.

A special car brought Casey's body
from Salinas to San Francisco, where
it was cremated. With the ashes in
an urn, a score of Casey's friends, fol following
lowing following directions left by the decedent;
proceeded to a hotel whose proprietor
was an old friend of Casey's.
Before the party sat down to dinner
the urn was taken Into the barroom
and placed behind the bar. Then
every one ordered his favorite drink,
and this toast was drunk:
"To Casey, who is still behind the

CLEANING UP AND GROWING
Possible for Every One to Plant a
Few Simple Flowers on Their
Property.
Cleaning up is limited in meaning.
Homes may go through housecleaning,
householders may clean streets and
sidewalks and remove every rubbish
trifle. In great buildings strenuous
efforts may be made, will be made, to
have every bit of litter carted away.
That is a beginning.
The city may be made beautiful by
nature's work. Plants respond to ev every
ery every little care. Flowers bloom when
almost neglected. Is it not right not
only to clean up but to start the habit
of growing plants bearing flowers?
It i3 not difficult and almost inex inexpensive.
pensive. inexpensive. One great concern in this
city, with hundreds of windows in the
building, where a thousand work, has
potted plants on every sill. Trail Trailing
ing Trailing vines halfway cover the brick
walls, though they are "artistic. In
midsummer the factory is a joy to
those who like to see evidences of na nature's
ture's nature's handiwork.
Greater things can be accomplished
along this line. A space two yards
wide and ten yards long in front of a
factory or store will yield abundantly.
The window ledges bear flowers, the
vacant spots have earth and they will
satisfy the eye with a charming mix mixture
ture mixture of color If given half a chance.
One prisoner, famed In story and
song, had not a joy. Through a crev crevice
ice crevice in the damp wall there came the
sprout of a little flower. He nursed it
and gave it encouragement with a
few drops of water from his limited
supply. He was well rewarded, as the
ambitious flower wanted to grow. And
they want to grow on every vacant
foot of land and eyerycity has acres
in the aggregate.
Clean-up is a proper rallying cry,
but add to that a desire to see na nature's
ture's nature's marvels grow, and the city
clean also will be a city beautiful.

About once a month, always on a
Sunday. Maurice Danby motored from
the city down to his brother's farm
for a brief visit.
Young Mr. Danby held a position in
a city department. His standing in
social life was good, and it was known
that he had a fair-sized bank account.
So far as friends or relatives knew,
he had never been in love, and was
not likely to be. Therefore it was a
shock to his sister-in-law when he ar arrived
rived arrived one Sunday, and said:
"Look here. Sarah, you have got

r
to help me out."
"What is it, -Maurice? she asked.
"I'm in love."
"You can't be."
"But I am."
"Well, won't the girl have you?"
"I haven't asked her."
"Then go right off and do it."
"Listen to me, woman. I came down
by the old post road this morning, in instead
stead instead of the usual way. About three
miles above here is an old red farm farmhouse."
house." farmhouse." "Yes, the Granger place."
"There was a girl there."
"Yes; Kitty Granger."
"She was leaning on the gate eat

ing an apple. I am almost sure she

me."

What idiots young men are!

smiled the relative. "You see a good good-looking
looking good-looking girl at a farmhouse gate, and
ten seconds later you are in love and
thinking of marriage."
"I am going to know Kitty Granger.
It may not take two days to bring it
about, and it may take two weeks."
Monday morning he entered his
auto and started away with a wave of
his hand. He was bound for the post
road and Farmer Granger's. When he
saw the old farmer at work in the

field by the roadside an Idea came to
him. He stopped.
"Do you want to sell that calf tied
in your front yard?" he asked.
"Yep," was the reply.
"How much?"
"Orter be wuth six dollars."
Not ten feet behind the calf was the
veranda. Mr. Danby walked around the
veal cutlets three times and then
took a. seat on the veranda to view
him from a new point.
He coughed and shuffled his feet, but
no one came out.
Miss Kitty was heard singing in the
house, but she didn't appear. After a
quarter of an hour had passed away
the schemer had to return to the farm farmer
er farmer to say:
"I will come back tomorrow and see
about it"
"Just as you will," was th.e reply.
It was with a good deal of chagrin
that the young man got into his auto
and drove away.
"Then the girl with the apple was

not at the gate?" his sister-in-law
asked.
"II was just riding out for pleas pleasure,"
ure," pleasure," he replied.
"Oh, I see. I have sort of. taken a
pity on you, and decided to give you
a hint to act on. I have heard that
Miss Kitty was talking of buying a
new piano."
"Well?"
"If you want some excuse for call calling
ing calling at the house to get a closer view
of her and have a talk
"By George; it's the thing! As

agent for a piano house in the city, I
can call."
Young Danby was so elated with the
new scheme that he forgot the old one
He motored boldly upto the house,
but as he reached the veranda, Mr.
Granger came around the corner from
the kitchen and sighted him and
said:
"Came back for the calf, eh? Well,
I thought you would. He's worth
seven dollars, and I only asked you
six."
"I was going to see your daughter
about a new piano."
"Oh, the piano can wait. Will you
take the calf away with you in the
machine? As you are in the veal
business, you must know that calves
are going up every day. I said six
dollars to you, and I'll stand by my
word."
He led the calf out to the gate, and
Mr. Danby had to follow. He had to
do more. He had to help lift the calf
into the auto and make him fast and
hand over six dollars and drive away.
When another day came Mr. Danby
was ready he didn't know for what.
He set off without a plan. If he passed
the house he might be shouted to to

stop and buy hogs or hens, but It might
be his luck also to see Miss Kitty at
the gate. He had just determined to
take his chances when he saw her
coming toward him, driving in her
pony cart.
Speed was reduced to a fair gait,
and he held straight for the pony. The
girl checked up. She screamed.
Straight ahead, and then there was a
smash and the pony was down and
things were in a glorious tangle.
There was some breakage, but no lives
lost.
"What did you do that for?" asked
the girl when things were somewhat
straightened out.
"Do you believe I did it on pur purpose?"
pose?" purpose?" "I surely do!"
"WTell, it was that I might get a
chance to tell you that I am in love
with you!"
The wedding day. may not have been
set yet, but young Mr. Danby has for
a long time been eating his Sunday
dinner at Farmer Granger's.

the country north of (Brussels with

cavalry, were about to advance in
force on Brussels.
"The population has been told by
the burgmaster that .If the Germans
came, they should remain indoors,
and go on as far as possible with
their usual vocations.
"Brussels is an undefended city,
but within the last three or four
days, every important street leading
out of town has been barricaded and
trenches have been dug in the out outskirts

To the Citizens of Ocala:
I 'hate to 'be a grumble -box, but I
want to express my opinion on the
subject of public construction, no notice
tice notice that there is being a great deal
of money put in the constructing of
a new high school building and over overhauling
hauling overhauling the primary school build building.
ing. building. The constructing of the new
high school building I think perfect perfectly
ly perfectly necessary but as to the addition
to the primary school I want the
public to stop and give It a good
thought. Is there not enough room?
If there is not there is certainly
room to spare at the new high
school which is now under construc construction.
tion. construction. Also in addition to this the
people along the road to the school
buildings are 'being forced to put
down cement sidewalks whether or
not they are able to pay for them.
The way I understand It Is, if the
people are not able to pay for it
the city goes ahead and puts them
down and leaves it to the owners of
the property to pay for them, but
If the owner is not able to raise the
amount required the city makes the
owner pay for it out of his property.
Do you think this is right? Are the
children going to school now any
better than those that went to school
up at the old high school? They
had no cement sidewalks to walk on.
Of course we would like to see the
children have them but there is no
use to take a person's property
away from him because he is not
able to 'have then put down. There
Is just a couple more things I would
'like to mention. Where is a park
for us to go and rest on Sundays and
hot afternoons? There is one park
here -by the fire station which Is, of
course, too small. Xow just one
more thing, for the enjoyment of
the young boys and girls. How about
a Y. M. C. A. and a Y. W. C. A.
Can't we afford them and cut out
some of the sidewalk and school school-house
house school-house 'business. 'Please give all this
a good sincere thought, and oblige,
A Friend.
