0! a wonfierf streim is the River of Time,
Aa It glidea through he relms of yea re.
With a faultier ryttam and musical rhyme.
And a bro ider sweep ands -rge sublime
And bl< nds with the ream of ?eai*.
Row the winters Are drifting like flake. of
s-ow,
And the summer like bnds between.
And the years in the sheaf, so they come and
they go.
On the river’s breast, with Us ebb and flow.
As it glides through the shadow and b eu.
There la a magical isle up the River of Time,
Where the softest airs are playing;
There’s a cloudless sky and a tropical clime.
And a song as sweet aa a reaper chime,
And the June where the roses are staying.
And the name of this i-lc la the Long Ago,
And we bury our treasures there.
There are trows of beauty and bosoms ul sno *;
There are heaps of dust, but we loved them so
There are trinkets and tresses of hair.
O I remembered for ay sbe the breed isle.
AMthecaysol life till night—
When the evening comes, with the beautiful
smile.
And our eyes ;re closing to slumber, awhile,
May that “Greenwood’’ of soul he ins.gut.

Sparr’s Christmas Tree.
Yes, we had it, and such a merry,
happy, delightful time was afforded
the crowded building. The tree was a
thing of beauty, loaded from top to
bottom with everything imaginable.
The childreu behaved beautifully, aud
rendered their songs aud recitatious so
well that applause was freely be
stowed by the appreciative audience.
The grown people will do anything
for the school children and again the
young people will do lots for our
amusement aud entertainment, so we
generally have a joyous, happy band.
Mr. Karl Harter and Mr. East had
l charge of the tree. Mrs. Souter
helped with the Bongs. The stage was
the only thiug lacking, as those in the
back of the house could see uly half
of the tree and nothing of the chi
dreu but their heads. Right here it is
apropos to say tearing down is much
more easily done than building up.
No one hus the right to tear down a
stage built and paid for by a neigh
borhood, and the party who took it on
himself or herself to do so is now re
quested by the neighbors to assume
the responsibility of having it re
placed at once. Perhaps the expense
and w<frk will prevent further de
struction. The writer wns requested
to make this statement by at least a
dezen present. Even with the stage
there was no excuse about more room,
as the buildiug is plenty large enough
to accommodate fifty pupils, much
less the number now attending.

Mr. CampbeTa Contribution-
Mr. C. H. Campbell, chief of the
Ocala fire department, and in which
he takes such a deep interest, has hit
on a unique way to advertise the next
annual meetiug of the State Fire As
sociation, which will take place in
Ocala In November, 1894.
The drawing, which is the work of
Mr. C., is done with the exactness aud
erfectio u of an experienced draughts
man, designs a hose reel with a map
of Florida spread over it in the form
of a compass. A striking figure in
the map is that one point of the com
pass points to Ocala, showing it is the
hub of the wheel and the center of the
state. The compass, from the rim of
the wheel, all point toward Ocala as
the center of population. On the
spokes of the wheel are indicated the
different industries and progressive
features of the city, such as electric
lights, water works, street railway,
ice factory, cigar industries, etc. Un
derneath the wheel is a banner, repre
sented as spiked to the grouud with
an advertisement of the state fire
men’s tournament to be held here
next November. Suspended from the
tongue of the reel is a banner beariug
the motto of the department: “We
lend our aid in time of need.”
This drawing will be lithographed
in five colors and a copy sent to each
and every fireman in the state. On it
will be the date of the next meetiug of
the State Fire Association. They will
also be sent to prominent and leading
citizens in the state.
Mr. Campbell is deserving of great
credit for the ingenuity aud skill dis
played In designing and executing
this map and the novelty of it is a
most taking aud striking advertise
ment. It is displayed in Troxler aud
Davidson’s show window and every
body stops to Lok at It and admire it.
Piles! Files! Piles!
They can be relieved at once and in
time effectually cured, by a thorough
use of Beggs’ German ISalve. We give
a positive guarantee with every box.

IN THEIR NEW QUARTERS.
Reidj to Serve the Publio at Their
Wonderfully Low Price*.
If the ten thousand readers of the
Banner don’t remember we will Jog
their memories and remind them that
the extensive furniture dealers, Mess.
McCall & Sparr, have moved from
their old quarters on the north side of
the public square to the old Ocala
Music House store room on North
Magnolia street, where they will con
tinue to slaughter their immense
stock at unheard of prices, and at
such figures that have crowded their
store room ever since they put their
big ad. iu the Banner.
Mr. McCall will go to California,
and the sooner you call the greater
the variety of stock to select from.
The facts of this great sale are be
fore the public, it is theirs to take ad
vantage of, and knowing a good thing
will do it.
The Society of Technology may Select
Ocala.
Through a letter received by Mr. E.
W. Agnew, it looks very much as
though the important Society of
Technology of the United States
would meet in Ocala in April.
This learned and scientific associa
tion will, if they come, bring some
400 delegates.
Dr. D. Day, chief ot the Division of
Miniug Statistics and Technology, in
the Department of the Interior at
Washington, is greatly interested in
the Society, and their meeting in
O ’ala, where he spend several days a
m >nth ago and conceived the happy
idea.
Of course Ocala would feel highly
honored with the’r presence aud
would do everything in their power
to make their stay pleasant.
One of the remarkable incidents
connected with Dr. Day’s visit is the
fact that in 1883 in bis geological re
port in a long and interesting article
he tells the fact that phosphates ex
isted iu paying quantities in Alachua
aud Marion counties, and so impressed
was he with this valuable fact that he
wrote letters to Judge Bell, of Gaines
ville, and the late Hon. Juo. F. Dunn,
calling their attention to this impor
tant matter, but all the same his val
uable suggestions slept seven years.
While iu Ocala the Doctor told Mr.
S. W. Teague that when the discov
ery was made of phosphate deposits
in Florida and utilized as a commodi
ty of commerce, his heart leaped with
joy.
Let us not lose sight of this meeting
and do ail in our power to secure its
presence.
A High Endorsement.
Mr. L. Harter, a practical gardene
and seed grower, aud who has spent
several years in Florida making spe
cial lists, says he finds by establishing
thorough irrigation and protection
that Florida surpasses any state in
which he has resided, and *he has re
siileiFtrrfiiaJiv, for producing excep
tionally satisfactory results iu -vegeta
ble, floral, tree aud s-C*l culture. 1
find, be says, by a thorougTTtesh that"
there are powers of production in the
land of Florida unrevealed to a major
ity of her heople, and that her great
est wealth is yet hidden in land and
water. I must say, he continues, that
lam delighted with the discoveries I
have made in the short time that I
have been in the State in the astonish
ing productive powers of her soil, anil
by the proper applieatiou of water,
even without fertilizers, this produc
tive power can be greatiy increased.
Mr. Harter promises to write the
Banner a special article on this sub
ject, frhieh w ill no doubt lead to valu
able results.

Mrs. Miram A. Graham, wife of
Mr. John C. Graham, died at her
home at Grahamvilie Saturday- morn
ing. She was eighty years of age.
Mrs. G. had been a remarkable wo
man in more ways than one. During
her long and useful life she never em
ployed a servant to assist her in her
domestic duties and household labors,
except wash day. With her husband
she came to Florida in 1848 from
South Carohna and with the excep
tion of eighteen months spent in Ocala
in 1852, wbeu Indian troubtes pre
vailed, she had always been a resi
dent of Grahamvilie, aud Mr. Gra
ham named the place. She was the
mother of five children, three boys
and two girls. Two of the former are
dead. Mr. L. M. Graham, Mrs. P. L.
D irisoe and Mrs. R bert Holly sur

Christmas day the old lady was al
most as spry and active aud ambi
tious as she had been sixty years ago
when she cooked her first family
Christmas dinner. To this meal she
invited all her children.
While Mrs. Graham was not a ro
bust woman, she enjoyed remarkable
good health through all her years aud
had very few’ days of sickness.
Beloved and respected by all in her
community she passed peacefully
away, full of hope iu the bhssed here
after. Peace to her ashes.

Fire at Wildwood.
There is a rumor* on the streets to
day that the depot, hotel and four
stores were burned at Wildwood last
night. It Is supposed to be the work
of an incendiary.
A gentleman who has paid some
attention to the subject informed the
Banner to-day that after giving the
matter a great deal of thought and
quiet luvestigation that he has become
thoroughly convinced that the tires in
Ocala for some time past is the work
of youug white kids about town and
that they enact the roll of incendiaries
purely for the love of excitement and
to see the tire companies called out in
the still hours of the night. In con
firmation of his theory he says it will
be remembered that for a long time
past fires have only originated in un
occupied out-houses or houses iu out
of the way places. The police should
keep an eye on the kids.
Mr. H. A. Abercromby, of Orlando,
who had charge of the Orange county
World’s Fair car, on his return home
tarried Wednesday in Ocala to take
a look about town. It was his first
visit and he was very much pleased
with us. Referring to his trip and
car he said it was the biggest kind of a
success aud returns are already com
ing into Orlando and the country
through its missionary labors. Mr.
A. made the Banner a pleasant call.
Mr. Wm LaGrass, of Salisburry, Mo.
arrived last night and will spend a
month with us. He is comfortably
domiciled at Mrs. Edwards. Mr. La-
Grass spent the winter with us five
years ago, and carried away a pleasant
recollection of Ocala and her people.
Mr. La. G. while here will look after
the interests of his orange grove three

Juo. Freeman.
