Smith of this city has three little terriers who take to sot balls like a water spaniel af after ter after a chip on which you have spat and thrown into a lilly pond. It came about in this way. Smith runs a stage between the Belleriew Hotel and Clearwater. The terriers are jnis companions, either riding proud ly in front or. trotting alongside.

Later they had a penchant for the links and chased the balls, picking them up and returning them to the play players, ers, players, much to their annoyance. They were punished for the act and no sooner learned to run after the ball and point it until the driver came up. Xow they are regular attendants at the games and enjoy golf as much as the guests of the hotel which is some enjoyment. They also observe the rules of the game and when a player Is driving off, keep still, but the moment the ball is in the air they are after it with a bark and cry and with wonderful discernment locate its "lie," altho sometimes when the ball messes up with the scrub palmetto they have to do some nosing. Yet by the time the players arrive, the ball has been spotted and the terriers stand at at attention tention attention over the ball, waiting for the kind word or pat on the head from the player. George Ade, who returned to his farm in Indiana yesterday, was so well pleased with the performance of the terriers that he purchased one. and took it back with him.

He said there were seven of the bonds worth $10 each, remaining unsold, and he proposed to sell them in seven minutes and clean up the last dollar of the debt.

When it comes down to brass tacks, there are as many good people in Jacksonville in proportion to population as in any place in the worM, and they will give the old soldiers one of the finest reunions they ever had. The hearing at Ocala Monday and Tuesday ,on the petitions of the rail railroads roads railroads to be relieved of the operation of the long and short haul act pass ed by the last legislature, revealed many inequalities in freight Tates, which the makers of those rates, the rail road officials, were wholly un able to explain or justify, the vice- president of the Seaboard Air Line was asked If the beaboard had any justification to offer why his road made the people of Ocala pay fifteen cents a hundred on fresh meats from Jacksonville to Ocala and charged only eleven cents on the same freight from Jacksonville to Tampa. He re replied plied replied that he could offer none. There were other questions of like purport, and similar answers.

But it is very glad to see them try to improve themselves, and thinks they have just as much right to put their social affairs and their opinions in print as anyone.

UNDIGNIFIED IN THE EXTREME One of our leading lawyers, a gen gentleman tleman gentleman whom his friends have con siderable reason to style a statesman, calls the Star's attention to the fact that the railroad rate meeting in this city was a very undignified spec spectacle. tacle. spectacle. Why undignified? Because one of the departments of the state government condescended to debate with a number of the citizens wheth whether er whether a law passed by the representa representatives tives representatives of the people of the state, sign signed ed signed by the executive of the state, and as valid as the law against stealing, should be put into effect or not. Such a spectacle would not be held up to public view if the members of the railroad commission were not so obviously under the control of the very agencies they are elected and required by law to control for the benefit of the people. When the law went into effect, Jan. 1, 1914, it was the business and the duty of the railroad commission to see that it was put into effect, and if the railroads did not comply with it to summon them into the courts at once. That is one of the duties they are elected to perform,' and the duty they would have carried out if they were as faithful to the cause of the people and their oaths of office as they are to the convenience of the corporations. Xo man can serve two masters, and Messrs. Burr, Blitch and Dunn have temporized between the corpor corporations ations corporations and the people long enough. They should be retired at the next election, and men of backbone and devotion to the public put in their places. IKES ADVERTISING PAY Just ask Messrs.

Tompkins says the big advertisement the firm has carried in the Star, daily and weekly, was the direct cause of the selling of all of these mules. REASONS FOR REPEAL The Savannah News gives the fol- lowing very good reasons why the j president should be supported in his j attempt to have the exemption act j repealed : The president depends upon three things for the passage of the repeal bill. The first is that tolls exemption for our coastwise ships is a violation of the Hay-Pauneefote treaty, the second is that tolls exemption means a ship subsidy an immense one to which the democratic party is oppos opposed, ed, opposed, and the third is that tolls exemp exemption tion exemption isn't in harmony with demo democratic cratic democratic sentiment, notwithstanding the fact that the national democratic platform favors tolls exemption for our coastwise ships. There is no occasion for arguing the first, for the reason that as far as the average reader can see exemption of our coastwise vessels from the payment of Panama tolls does violate the treaty. And that being the case there ought to be no hesitation in repealing the exemption act. As has been pointed out many times it would be better to fill up the canal than to stand before the nations in the atti attitude tude attitude of a repudiator of a solemn ob obligation. ligation. obligation. In response to the second point, why should we turn over to a ship shipping ping shipping trust millions of dollars annual annually? ly? annually? Prof. Johnson, the Panama canal's financial expert, has stated that our coastwise ships can use the canal profitably without being ex exempted empted exempted from the payment of canal tolls, can compete successfully with the transcontinental railroads. That being the case, if they were exempted from the payment of tolls they would simply put the tolls in their treas treasuries uries treasuries and pay them out. to their stockholders. A great point in favor of tolls ex exemption emption exemption has been made of the fact that the national democratic plat platform form platform favors that policy. It does of course favor it but the majority of the democratic members of Congress opposed the exemption provision of the Panama canal act of 1912. It was only passed as an amendment with the help of many republicans. So the administration isn't really asking that any democratic policy shall be abandoned. It is simply asking that the nation stand by its solemn treaty obligation. The administration is going to win in this fight but the fight is go going ing going to be a notable one. That is al ready evident from the number of senators and representatives who have asked for an opportunity to be heard on the question at issue. The president will come out of the con contest test contest even stronger with his party and more popular with the people than he is now. STUNG BY THE TRANSIENT ADVERTISING SOLICITOR Orlando Sentinel: Several busi business ness business men of Orlando have been stung again by an itinerant advertising solicitor, in spite ;Of the Sentinel's warnings against such agents. A few days ago a person appeared at the office of Dr. J. F. McKinnon, su superintendent perintendent superintendent of public instruction, and secured from him a copy of a re report port report blank of the kind used to re port to parents the class standing and general average of pupils in the public schools. The solicitor went out armed with this copy from the superintendent's office and began so soliciting liciting soliciting advertisements to be printed on a card to contain the report blank the idea being to furnish the cards free for use in the schools, allowing the advertiser the privilege of pay paying ing paying for them. The business men were easy and readily gave up five dollars each for space on the cards. The cards were delivered to the su superintendent's perintendent's superintendent's office, and there they will remain until they are dumped into the ash barrel. The superin tendent says he would not think of recommending the use of them in the schools. So where will the five dol dollars lars dollars each of the merchants land? In the ash barrel. A rather amusing feature of this incident is the fact that among the advertisers is a merchant who not long ago directed the attention of the Sentinel to a similar imposition that had been worked on the business men of the town by another travel ing salesman. He wanted the Senti nel to perpetrate a "trade at home' article on the subject, and the Sen tinel did. The difference between tnat piece or Dusmess and this is that the merchant in question was hit that time, and he felt it. This time the Sentinel and every other newspaper in town is hit, but the merchant didn't see it that way and helped the fellow get away with a neat sum without rendering any equivalent whatever. Funny world, ! isn't it. ? Total Resources Over $650,000.00 F I NCONSISTKNCT ES OF EXEMPTION The Star takes great pleasure in reproducing the following from the Times-Union: Cases Not Identical Mr. Underwood, who is leading the fight against the repeal of the exemption of coastwise vessels of the United States from Panama canal tolls, is quoted as saying: "I can see no real distinction be between tween between a ship loaded at Duluth with wheat going thru the Sault Ste. Ma Marie rie Marie canal without lockage charges and landing its cargo at Buffalo, or a barge loaded with coal starting at Pittsburg going thru the canal and locks on the Ohio river and unload unloading ing unloading its freight at New Orleans, and a ship starting with American merchandise from the port of San Francisco going thru the Panama canal free of tolls and landing its cargo at New Orleans or New York." Mr. Underwood thinks that since our government has never charged tolls on waterways it has made or improved, it should not take tolls from the class of vessels that could use our internal waterways when us using ing using the canal that it has cut across the isthmus of Panama. This is the most plausible state statement ment statement we have seen in answer to the subsidy agreement against giving a special privilege to our coastwise shipping. It does not touch the in international ternational international question at all. The can canals als canals we hae cut in the United States and the rivers we have deepened we cut or deepened without asking or needing to ask the consent of any one. We were so bound by an agree agreement ment agreement in reference to an isthmian canal that we could not proceed to cut the canal without modifying that agreement. In the changed agree agreement ment agreement we explicitly promised that we would not discriminate in regard to tolls between the ships of the differ different ent different nations. There is the promise. We would dishonor ourselves by breaking it. But even considering only our own people, the cases Mr. Under Underwood wood Underwood cites are not identical. The waterways we deepen in the United States are free to all classes, while the Panama canal would be free only to the corporations running coast coastwise wise coastwise vessels. The Clyde Line has the free use of the St. Johns river, running its boats to Sanford and the Beach & Miller Line runs boats to Crescent City. But the river is also free to every tug, every craft, every lighter, every launch, every sail boat, every rowboat. Say a man is cutting cross- ties or sawing lumber up the St. Johns and wishes to sell his products in Jacksonville. He can temporarily become the owner of a means of transportation by chartering a tug or lighters; or if he is cutting logs he can charter a tug to tow them down the river.

U. by by-Mrs. Mrs. by-Mrs. Agatha Slaymaker, and read by her, and which was greatly appreci appreciated ated appreciated and enjoyed by all present: Why Stick to the IJaten Track? Why do we stick to the beaten track? Who made those roads we tread? Can we not blaze some thought path new? Can we not forge ahead? Lazily we stalk in the same old way, Not thinking a thought for ourselves; Our minds are only receptacles of Ideas we found on our shelves. "Stand by the ofd land-marks" you say, "This from the voice of old," There's nothing in the universe new, This the sages have told. It is true that with creation's dawn, The general plan was laid; For God, the master mind of all The general sketches made. The minds who have lived before us have worked And delved in thought shops of then, They worked out a ulan to fit their day, And filled the need of their men. But what of us'in this lightning age? What are we trying to do? But trying to make their glorious plans iFit into our day too. Our duty's before us, we musn't shirk The needs of our girls and hoys, They'll not be content at the present pace To play with their grandparent's toys. So why not make their amusement clean And laugh with the young each day, They may not play as we used to, But perhaps it is as good a way. And if Pharisees frown and say "Not so," Just think the thing out, that's the way. See if there's not something good in the fun, The children are having today. Oh, why not put on the whole ar armor mor armor of God And look the foe right in the face, Then what of public opinion is nil God will make up with His grace. Rev.

Washington, March 27 greatest legislative battle yet under undertaken taken undertaken in President Wilson's admin administration istration administration was begun last night with the presentation of a rule to limit debate and prohibit amendment of the government's proposed repeal of the canal act phrases allowing free i passage of American ships. For two hours the rale alternately was defended and attacked in hot debate in the House. When adjourn adjournment ment adjournment came with an hour of debate on the rule left for today, Speaker Champ Clark, who before had not announced his position on the repeal policy, issued a statement vigorously opposing the rule. "Surely there is nothing sacred about this repeal bill, and there is no reason for this mad rush," said the speaker's statement. "I will not be a party to ramming such a rule down the throats of the members." At four o'clock Representative Henry, chairman of the rules com committee, mittee, committee, presented the rule limiting f debate on the Sims bill to twenty hours, and precluding amendment, except for the single motion to re recommit. commit. recommit. Brief arguments brought about an agreement for three hours debate on the rule and the prelimi preliminary; nary; preliminary; skirmish of the greatest legis lative struggle of a decade was on. To a House silently attentive, Rep Representative resentative Representative Henry explained the rule, hrarid launched into a defense of the repeal bill. Then followed an argu argument ment argument in which the rule was given lit LHle attention the merits of the canal bill, the president's policy and the rfght to exercise control over the canal it had built and the economic advisability of free tolls for Ameri American can American ships were dragged back and forth in the discussion. Underwood Sits Quietly Thruout the discussion Majority eader Underwood for the first time opposing tne administration, sat quietly in his seat, listening atten attentively tively attentively to the argument. Republican Leader Mann and progressive Leader Murdock both made arguments against the rule and the bill. Representative Henry, of Texas, the chairman of the rules -committee, issued a statment attacking the Speaker for opposing the rule at this late hour. He said: "Of course, he could not be ex pected to jump right into the camp of the president, but for him to show his sympathies and march right boldly over to the ship monopolies was unexpected." The president remained at his of fice for an hour last night. A copy of the Speaker's statment was shown him, but he stated that he had noth ing to say.

A dead man; stay where you are; he is dead all right. I'll be back in a moment." I stepped within, and held the torch down closer, the ghastly yellow light falling full on the upturned face. He was a man of seventy, or over, a sturdy looking fellow for his years, in the garments of a French courier des bois; his features strong, refined, bear bearing ing bearing even In death a certain peculiar dignity, increased by a snow-white beard.

I unpinned it, and held it up to the light of the torch, studying out ihe French inscription, letter by letter, half guessing at its meaning it was a medal of honor, given for special gallantry in action at Fontenoy to Capt. Raoel D'Auvray. I stood staring at it, and then down into the face of the dead man. D'Auv ray: Her name! The same name she had given me! The face of the girl came back instantly to memory, dis distinct, tinct, distinct, living. There was a familiarity, a resemblance, now that I thus con connected nected connected the two together. She had told me her father was a French officer but dead, killed in action. Perhaps she thought so; had been deceived into j this belief.

Why was this Captain D'Auv D'Auvray ray D'Auvray hiding here, and why did she deny that he was still living? The more I thought, the more tangled grew the skein. Brady called me, and I stepped back into the other room, still dazed, grasping the medal in my hand. "Well, what Is it?" he asked gTuff gTuff-ly. ly. gTuff-ly. "What have you found out?"

"An army decoration for gallant con conduct duct conduct given to Capt. Raoel D'Auvray, Fifth Cuirassiers." "You think it belonged to him?" "Beyond doubt; it was pinned 'to his-shirt the one thing he treasured in his exile." "D'Auvray," he repeated, as if the name had familiar sound. "I've heard of him before. Wait a bit; now I have it he commanded Hamilton's Indians at Vincennes when Clark took the town. I saw him once." He got to his feet with my help, and braced himself in the doorway, looking intently at the upturned face, as I held the torch extended. "That's the man," he said soberly. "I remember the white beard; eome one told me the Wyandots called him the -white chief. And he was in the French army? An officer? Poor devil! I wonder what happened to drive him to this." He stared about among the shadows at the miscellaneous articles littering the shed, his trained eyes noting things I had overlooked in my excitement. "He was murdered all right, lad," he commented slowly, "and by a white man. This was aot Injun work. Here is the imprint of a boot heel; you can even see the nail,.
