PROPOSED DIVIDING LINES
No Fornuil Campaign Has Been Or.
ganized for State DivLion, but
Sentiment Is Growing With Object
in View, It Is Said.
A plan to divide Florida into two
States, the southini half to be called
by its presi nt name, and the north
ern to be named Jefferson, in honor
of Thomas Jefferson, is bcinir serious
ly and widely discussed in private
circles, and in the press of the state.
It is sn'ested that the state be
divided by a line running nlonjr the
twenty-ninth parallel or by a line co
lncidin;; with the course of the Su
wanee river. "Jo miles north of the
twenty-ninth parallel. The proposed
state of Jefferson on the north would
contain approximately 7.000 square
miles, an area a little larger than New
Jersey. New Hampshire and Vermont
combined. The rest of the state be
low the twenty-ninth parallel would
include some 41, (( square miles,
about the same as the area of Ohio
and less than the area of Tennessee.
No formal campaign has been or
panized to create sentiment for thP
proposed division of the state, but it
is believed such a movement is likely
to be organized soon.

FLORINA CAPTURED.
Serbs Have Bulgars on the Run in
Macedonia,
The fortified city of Fiorina, chief
base of tlie Bulgarian right wing's
first line defense in Macedonia, is re
ported to have fallen to the Serbians.
An unofficial Athens dispatch says:
"Fiorina has been captured. The
Bulgars are fleeing."
Seventeen miles to the north of
Fiorina lies Monastir. the Important
Macedonian city, tlie possession of
which has for decades been one of tlie
bones of contention between the Bul
gars and the Serbs. It was taken by
the Bulgars last fall after terrible
fighting and has been formidably for
tified during the past twelve months.
The Bulgarians are expected to make
a desperate stand to hold it, while
the Serbians, fighting on their own
soil, will bend might and main to
take It, and thus clear the path for
the re-conquest of their kingdom.
GREECE MAY JOIN.
Retirement of Zaimis Ministry May
Mean Entry Into War.
King Constantino has accepted the
resignation of Premier Zaimis and his
cabinet.
The belief is entertained in the
entente capitals that the retirement
of the Zaimis ministry is preliminary
to the entrance of Greece into the
war. Recent dispatches from Berlin
and Vienna show that there also it
is regarded as probable Greece will
soon abandon neutrality and join tlie
entente powers.
The precise causes which led to the
resignation nf the ministry have not
been disclosed, on account of the ex
ceutionally rigid censorship.
