CLARK WANTS EXTRA
SESSION CALLED
He Probably loent Like the Idea
of Another ISace Against
Ililburn
Jacksonville, Oct. 8. The Metrop Metropolis
olis Metropolis says: Congressman Frank Clark
Is among those who are calling for
an extra session of the legislature
for the purpose of settling the con congressional
gressional congressional re districting controversy,
and has written Governor Park
Trammell from Washington asking
that the governor issue a special
session call.
Congressman Clark, who will not
include Duval county in his next
race in case the four district plan
goes into effect, is very anxious to
have the controversy over the mean meaning
ing meaning of the redisricting bill settle!
without delay. He declares to the
governor that failure to remedy the
seeming defect in the bill may
jeopardise the rights of the Florida
congressmen when next they appear
to take the oath of office, an 1 the
power of the democratic party in
case tariff revision causes the party
to lose members in the elections next
year.
I'cdlent I!(iio:i f:r Frank t: be
Anxious
Although he has yet made no def definite
inite definite announcement, Sam J. Ililburn
of Palatka. who is in the city today,
will again lie a candidate for Con Congress
gress Congress in the primary election next
spring, his expectation being to
again run against Frank Clark from
the old second district.
The new but seemingly, defective
redisricting law places his county of
Putnam in the new fourth district
which also includes Duval, while
'Alachua, the home county of Mr.
Clark, is in the new second district.
"Will you be in the next race for
Congress? Mr. Ililburn was asked
by a Metropolis man.
"I am not ready to make an an announcement,
nouncement, announcement, but I know very well
today what I am going to do," was
the reply.
Mr. Hilburn's friends state that he
has made up his mind to run.
Would Oppose Clark
"In view of the controversy over
the law by which the state was re re-districted
districted re-districted what district would you
run from?" Mr. Ililburn was asked.
"It seems plain to me that the re re-districting
districting re-districting law does not go into ef effect
fect effect in time for a change affecting
the primary and general election
next year, and this being the case
! I would again be called upon to make
another race against Frank Clark
from this, the old second district.'"
'replied Mr. Hilburn. "The supreme
court, however, should be called
upon by the governor for an opinion
as to the exact meaning of the law
ias it now appears on the statute
books."
Opposes Extra Session
"Do you think there is any possi-
jbility of an extra session of the leg legislature
islature legislature being called to correct any
j defect the bill may have?" Mr. Hil
burn was asked.
"I do not see why the state should
be put to great expense on account
ot a matter that affects only a few
candidates for Congress," said Mr.
Hilburn. "What if there is some de delay
lay delay in the establishing of the new
districts? I don't see where the
state is going to be injured, and the
: expense ot an extra session merelv
for the purpose of correcting this
bill would appear to be unwarranted."

of a colony of Japaaese orchardists
and truck growers to Florida has al already

opinion between those instrumental
in bringing them here and the poli politicians.

signed statement yesterday from
Washington, said he feels "outraged"
at the proposition, and that he in intends

next legislature that will forever
prohibit these Japanese from owning

Clark's statement
Representative Frank Clark gave
out a statement in which he says he
is amazed that the proposition to
coleime Japanese in Florida is not
creating more attention.
He says he feels "outraged" at
the proposition, and that if no one
else takes the initiative, lie intends
"to institute a propaganda looking
to the enactment of a law by the
next legislature cf Florida that will
loiever prohibit these Japanese, or
other races which cannot assimilate

He also says: '"Florida must al always

the Caucasians cannot assimilate, to

Jennings' Reply
Former Governor Jennings, when
shown this statement, said:
"There is a colony of Japanese
down at Yaniato. on the Florida Fast
Coast Railroad, right in Frank-
Clark's old district, which has been
there ever since .Clark has been in
Congress, and this is the first pro protest
test protest I have ever heard from him on
these men. who came openly to Flor Florida,
ida, Florida, were received and entertained in
Jacksonville, and have become good
farmers and law-abiding citizens of
the state."
Governor Jennings then remarked,
with a smile: "I don't suppose that
if this Japanese colony should hap happen
pen happen to settle on the Florida East
Coast Railway, that Clark would be
so much 'outraged.'
"What he has to say is twaddle;
and the object of his proposed pro propaganda
paganda propaganda is entirely too personal to
interest the people of the state.
"I have never known Clark to fa favor

Florida."
The colony of some twenty-five
Japanese now in the state were in
the city yesterday, and today have
been taken to lands down in Clay
county an the ed?e of Duval, where
they are looking over the situation
with a view to settling.

their cemetery in a year. Two of
these were infants, and one an old
lady who died in another county and
was brought to Cotton Plant for
burial. It is also a land of peace and
plenty, and Mr. Barco looks cheerful.
the public spirited citizens of Ocala
have been trying to aid the library
association in its most praiseworthy,
effort to obtain a Carnegie library
for this city, but for one reason and
another, mostly indifference on the
part of the people who would derive
the most benefit from it. nothing
has materialized but talk. In the
last few weeks, however, the plan
has been renewed with a igor that
promises results the reason doubt doubtless
less doubtless the same that has caused many
other public moves to be revived, or
originated in the last six or eight
months.
Yesterday was a field day for the
Library Association. It advanced on
the breastworks of indifference, and
obtained a capitulation. In the first
place, Mrs. Bittinger, .Mrs. Sinclair
and Miss Gamsby, members of the
committee, accompanied by Secretary
Rooney of the Board of Trade, went
before the Board of Public Instruc Instruction,
tion, Instruction, and then the Board of County
Commissioners, and obtained their
endorsement to the plan of a Carne Carnegie
gie Carnegie Library for Ocala. At the meet meeting

Board of Trade Tuesday nisht. -Mr.
Rooney presented the matter, which
received the unanimous indorse indorsement
ment indorsement of those gentlemen, whose ac action
tion action will of course be approed by
the Board of Trade. The governors
and the secretary then went before
the citv council, and that body gave
. I aipomt
favorable attention. the resolution,.
asking for the necessary ordinance
was referred to the judiciary com committee,

The best way in my opinion to
make a county fair of real value to

The rest of her lading had been in the
water ti short a time to be much
hurt. It was all water soaked, ot
course, but an hour's exposure in the
warm sun on the dry sand would make
it as good as new. Spreading all out
to dry I pulled the plug from the boat,
drained the water from her and haul
ed her up well op to the sand.
A hast j giant e assured me that the
cliff was of coral formation, jagged
and broken with many a crevice and

th course of the sandy strip and see if
there was no: some break in the cliffs
whereby we could get to the top and
learn what was within the wall. And
so refreshing ourselves and taking with
us some provisions, for we might have
to go clear around the island, we pres
ently started out.

aboard her that had the strength and
skill, to say nothing of the courage, to
bring her through. If there were no
natives or wild leasts to be feared we
were at least safe for the time being.
"Think you. Master Hampdon." said
my little mistress, "this is the island of
which my ancestor wrote:"
"I am sure of it." I replied.

right, as the -Island of the Stairs. did

"Yes." was my answer. "You remem

middle of the island."
"Surely, if we are to get to the top
of yonder wall it must be by stairs of
some sort."
"It would not be difficult to climb
It." 1 assented, "for a man. that is.
save for one thing."
"And what is that?"
"These pinnacles of rock are as shari
as needles. It would be like climbing
broken glass. The climber would be cut
to pieces before he had gone half way.'
"Then if we find no stairs we are in
a bad fix." she said thoughtfully, ex
amining the towering wall.
"There must be stairs." I answered
"There must be a way. The latitude

After perhaps an hours monotonous
going, when we had traversed about
a third of I lie distance of the island.
we rounded a projection of the cliff
and there before us rose the stairs:
What we saw was a gigantic ftair ftair-way,

blocks of rough hewn stone, not coral
rock, but harder stone of firmer tex texture,

familiar with the stone either. There
was no symmetry about it. some of the
stones rose perhaps three feet and oth others

stairs they certainly were and they
surely had been made by man. and the
stones were most carefully fitted, be being

the bottom on either side, two gigan

plaining. complaining. She told me long afterward
that my manner toward her then and
thereafter had been perfect.
When we at last reached the top
before us lay a broad pathway rudely
paved with the same hard stone. This
road led straight into the interior of
the island of which we could see us
yet nothing, because the wall here
abouts was covered with dense, lux luxurious
urious luxurious vegetation. Progress was diffi difficult
cult difficult even in the pathway. It would
have been impossible in some places
but for my heavy cutlass with which
I cut a path where the place had be- j
come overgrown by trees and bushes
which had forced their way through
the cracks, overturning and breaking
the heavy flagstones and blocking up
the path, which it was evident had
not been traversed for generations,
perhaps not since the old buccaneer
himself had walked along it beneath
the spreading trees.
For perhaps a mile we pursued our
journey across the top of the wall,
winding' in and out among the trees
through the jungle, the path evidently

broken and irregular.
At last we came to an open spot on
the inner edge overlooking the whole
island, and before us lay such a pic picture
ture picture as few eyes, at least of our race,
had ever looked upon. The wall ended
abruptly and fell on the inner or land
ward side as precipitously as it rose
outwardly and to seaward. Before us
lay a most entrancing valley, perhaps
three or four miles across and maybe
half as long again in the other direc direction
tion direction and which was walled about on
everv hand. It was sunk beneath this
wall crest for perhaps KM feet or more.
In the center of the valley the land
rose a little nigner man me imuuu
wall in a very considerable hill, tree
crowned on the slopes, but largely bare
on the crest. Through the valley ran
a brook, which ended in a little lake.
which I suspected had some subter
ranean connection with the ocean. As
far as we could see and the whole
. . . ..i
circuit or the lsianu was now t.-ieuo
visible to us the inclosing wall was
unbroken. The valley was filled with
clusters of trees and alternating
stretches of grassy meadow.
We should have been hard put to it
to descend the wall to the valley were
it not for the fact that the same peo people
ple people who built the stairs that gave ac access
cess access to the wall from the sea had built
a similar flight which led to the valley.
Before we essayed the descent of the
stairs we drank our till of the beauty
and mysterious charm of it all. In Indeed,
deed, Indeed, there was no sound that came to
us except the twittering of the birds,
of which there were many, brilliantly
plumaged. flittering in the trees. All
else was still, lonely, deserted, oppres oppressively
sively oppressively so in fact.
"What think you of this?" My lady
broke the silence. "Is it not like the
crater of a volcano?"
"No." said 1: "these are coral rocks,
and there is no sign of lava about
them, yet it has somewhat of the ap-
pearanco. espec.iuy mat naiieneu un unlock
lock unlock in the center."
1 have since talked with many men
and studied the writings of the most
learned geologists. They have fan fancied
cied fancied that jterhaps the rocky projection
in the middle of the valley, where we
saw the great altar of sacrifice witn its
attendant idols later on. was the orig
inal island, which was once surround surrounded
ed surrounded by a coral reef, which was now be become
come become a wall, and that some great up
heaval had lifted the whole up out of
the water in ages gone by ana mat
the barrier reef over which we had
passed was the second attempt of the
busy little insects to surround the is
land again.
"What is to be done now?" asked my
little mistress.
"I hardly know." I answered. "What
is exercising me most now is. first of
all. what is going on in that same mu mutinous
tinous mutinous shii. and. next, how we shall
finally get away from here."

to our landing place. If 1 know the
men on that ship they will guess that
we have escaped to this island and
they will bring her round to this side,
where we may have them under view
and they us."
"Think you that they can come at
us?" she asked, in sudden alarm.
"1 think not." I answered confident confidently,
ly, confidently, "but still to make sure 1 should
like to have them under observation."
Well, to make a long story short, we
retraced our steps over the broken
path until we reached the stairs on
the other side. The descent of them
was much easier than the ascent, and
by 2 of the clock we stepped on the
sand again. There before us in the
offing was the ship. We saw them
quite plainly, and 1 doubt not they
caught sight of us Immediately also.
They were scarcely a quarter of a
mile away from the reef, perilously
near. I thought, and we could mark

Sirius I the Brightest of All, and Ca Ca-nopus
nopus Ca-nopus Comes Next.
The results of that instrument of
prec ision, the meridian photometer, are
that Sirius is seven-tenths of a m.igni m.igni-tude
tude m.igni-tude brighter than Canopus. which
easily teaches that Sirius i brighter
than any other star.
Canopus. next in brilliancy, is visible
from all that portion of the world
south of north latitude 37 degrees,
since its declination is south r3 degrees
and ."3 is the complement of 37.
It therefore never rises above the
south horizon of any point 37 degrees
north. The latitude of this observa observatory
tory observatory is 34 degrees 17 minutes; hence
Canopus rises very nearly 3 degrees
al ove the watery wastes in the Pacific
sea. Its low altitude makes it much
fainter than higher Sirius. as the light
must traverse layers of dust and wa-
ier vaiMir near the earth's surface.!
