MCrats ;.j -.: ALL SUBSCRIPTIONS GASH IN ADVANCE. III. HI, "America's Winter Playground." .,i! St. Augustine, Fla., February 15th, 1909. Ait . i tlha wcathcr-man is behaving much bettor, although we'a'ro having occasional "ao'-sou'westers," veering to "eou'eaatcrs," Ain't it wonderful how soon a fellow begins'to apeak learnedly ot the sea after ho haa sucked iu a littlo ealt air it's ao different from the "hot air" one hears o c c a aiouully at home. Tho outlook now is for an out-door cli mate, and a diecard of winter wraps. Yesterday curi osity more perhaps than religion led me to the.Memori.il Church, Presbyterian, one of the show-places of this old town. In all the world it has not iter. .counterpart. Built in the shape of a cross, the cruci form likeness is preserved in the auditorium, the organ loft nnd rostrum forming the apex of the cross, with seats stretching at right angles North, East and South to complete the figure. The heavy railings which hide the choir from view, tho pulpit and the pews, beautiful anil' impressive in their massiveness, are all of solid ma- Inlaid into pulpit front is this inscription: This Church was erected by .,.. ' Henry M. Flagler, in loving remombranco ' of his daughter, Jennie Louise Benedict, '. who died March 25tb, A. D. 1889. -. throughout the building are memorial windows and inscriptions, testifying a father's love and his faith in the Blessed Redeemer. At the Southwest angle of the Church, and forming part of tne building, is the dnugh ter8 mausoleum. Aside from interest in the unique memorial, I heard a most able sermon on Abraham's Faith an old, old etory, but which was dressed in a Jl'VCft k. U-. nownprihR suit by tho eloquent young Pastor -James Coffin Stout. ",. Having been good in tho morning', thought I'd "do" tho Ponco concert in the evoning; so I wound my way through tho palm gardens, past flowing fountains and liveried lackoys, and finally reached the rotunda in safety. Here, within a limited spaco, tho goatB aro per mitted to gaze upon the sheep, but not to rub up against thorn for all of which the goats ought to bo grateful. I told you in a former letter that tho rates at tho Ponce it's Ponce do Leon, but ink is scarco' and I'll call it Ponco for short wero $5 per day up mostly up. Sirico then I'vo been told that ono can count on tho fingers ot ono .hand all the "$5 por" rooms in tho house. Those are probably reserved for the snobs who come down hero to get their names in the list of arrivals at tho Ponco, stay a fow days, writo letters to thoir best silly girls on Ponce stationery and then go back home and chaw liver for six monthB to como. Leaving tho $5 per day rooms, the scale ascends quito rapidly, reaching by quick jumps from $25 to $100 per day, the latter recently charged to a Preacher for himself, wife and daughter, occupying two room 8 1 A Preacher! Just think of that! Tell Bro. Harrop to come down, bring his family and enjoy a few days at $100 perl If I knew that Parson, I'd feel very much liko telling him what Fighting Bob Evans told tho New York "nob." Bob entered an ultra fashionable Church in Gotham and was shown by the usher to a desirable pew. Later the owner appeared, and finding some one ahead of himt sent a note to tho intruder "Sir: I pay $1,000 a year for tho privilege of occupy ing this pew." Evans read the note, pulled his pencil and wrote be neath it "Sir: You pay too damned much." And Fighting Bob was permitted to enjoy the pew alone. Yes; these Ponce people pay too damned much, es pecially when they split hairs with the toilers who pro duce the wealth they are squandering. Little wonder that Anarchists are growing up around us. If I'm able to judge, the majority of the people I saw there belong to the suddenly "new rich," and ono old dame who seemed to have been struck with a regular diarrhea of diamonds she had one that would have made a headlight for tho "F. F. V." looked as though she might have been the inheritor of a fortune mado by selling shoddy for Uncle Sam's soldiers during tho Civil War. Lincoln was philosophic when he said "the Lord must lovo'the common people he made so many of them." Thank the Lord, I am one of the common people. 9&&ui Cd. JS&Jb o n cJUi-zv . ms i ME 203! IRK'S!
