" "' Readers of this paper will find else where the very attractive advertise ment headed "Florida Wants You." It is the announcement of five acre sub urban farms near the phenomenal city of Jacksonville, Florida, for only $10(1, or just $20 an acre, on terms of one dollar an acre cash and one dollar an acre a month until paid for, without interest or taxes. The feature that it most attractive to every reader of this paper is that this announcement is made by one of the oldest, largest and most reliable corporations in the south, and not by land jobbing or colony pro moting schemers. The Jacksonville Development Company is a corpora Won of large assets and wonderful re sources. It is officered by some of the moat prominent men in the state of Florida. It is a corporation of achievements. Perhaps one of the most successful and famous colony propositions ever placed before the American public is the Keystone Park colony in Florida, end the Tampa Bay Land Company, which is behind that colony, is an associate company of the Jacksonville Development Company. There is no mistaking the fact. Florida soil and climate are the great est magnets in this country today. A five acre farm in the fruit and veg etable belt of Florida has been proven to be of greater earning capacity than a one hundred and sixty acre farm in the north and west. The climate Is ideal. The healthfulness of Florida th< year round makes it a practical health resort for a multitude of ailments. No other state in the Union offers so much to the man of limited means. Thousands of people are buying sinal' farms in Florida now. Lands that can be bought today for from $20 to $4f an acre will be selling for one hundred dollars an acre In a reasonably short time. We believe it 1b the course of wis dom to buy lands in Florida now. whether for a savings account invest ment, or for occupancy and cultivation. In that connection,we desire to add that Jacksonville farms from the well known and reliable Jacksonville Devel opment Company of Jacksonville, Florida, is one of the best, safest and surest opportunities that we know of.

NEWS BREVITIES OF ILLINOIS Arden. N. Y.--In the death of Ed ward H. Harriman, who succumbed to a long illness Thursday, the world has lost the greatest financier the railroad Interests ever have known. In death he met the only defeat of his 61 years of life. Recent estimates of Mr. Harriman's personal wealth have varied all the fray from 150,000,000 to $1,00 000,00# Secluded in his magnificent home on Tower Hill, surrounded by mem bers of his family, physicians and nurses, he succumbed to an intestinal disorder, after a fight against disease which will rank for sheer grit with his remarkable struggles in the financial world. Dr. Lyle. who has been Mr. Harri-" man's physician throughout this last illness, has issued no statement con cerning his illness or the cause of deatb^ but the general understanding is that there was no operation. Four persons are authority for this belief, among them being Mrs. Mary Simons, his sister. While the policy of reticence that prevailed during Mr. Harriman's ill ness was maintained by most of his relatives and associates after his death, Orlando Harriman, who is in New York, discussed the funeral ar rangements briefly. The services probably will take piace Sunday aft ernoon. Mr. Harriman will be buried in the family plot in the little grave yard behind St. John's Episcopal church at Arden. He will rest beside his eldest son, Edward H. Harriman. Jr., who died 22 years ago. There is mystery in the time of Mr. Harriman's death. The exact time is known .only in his limited circle of relatives and asso ciates. The time was given to the world at 3:35 p. m„ but Mrs. Simons, sister of the dead man, says the end had come at 1:30, more than two hours previous. This probably was done to lessen the influence of the financier's death on the New York stock market The announcement of Mr. Harri man's death caused an immense sensa tion throughout New York city, par ticularly in Wall streets and in finan cial circles. Everywhere the news was received with evidence of deep feeling and Vith the common recognition that the career of one of the world's greatest financial powers had come to a close. Judge Lovett, the close personal and business associate of Mr. Harriman, who probably will be his successor as president of the Union Pacific, re ceived the first word of the financier's dearth at the Union Pacific offices. Prom all parts of the country there tame a flood of tributes upon Mr. Har riman's career and lifework--from railroad presidents, from bankers and from men prominent in all walks of business and financial life. Friends, former business associate® and even rivals of the great railroad man spoke as a unit of his tremen dous power for work. As to the prob able effect of his death on the finan cial world, there was a variety of opinion, but comment was generally rather guarded. One of the finest tributes to Mr. Harriman came from James J. Hill, another giant among the railroad builders. President Taft refused to comment on the financier's death, Mr. Harriman was born in Hemp stead, L. I., February 25, 1848, the third son of Rev. Orlando Harrlraan, Jr., rector of St. George s Episcopal church at Hempstead. His mother came from an old and aristocratic family of New Brunswick, N. J. At H he found employment as an errand boy in a broker's office in Wall street. In 1870, before he was 23 years old, he had bought a seat on the New York stock exchange and paid for it with $20,000 he made in speculation. He learned his elementary lessons in finance in the school of Jim Flsk, Jay Gould and old Commodore Vanderbiit Harriman's most spectacular per formance, and which made his name familiar to all the reading public, was in May, 1801, when he struggled with the Morgan and Hiil lutcreous for Con trol of the Northern Pacific. Hia quarrel with President Roosevelt was another important epoch In his career. Mr. Harriman is survived by a widow, two sons, Avery and Roland Harriman, and three daughters, Mrs. Robert L. Gerry, Miss Mary and Miss Carol Harriman, all of whom were with him when death came. Though Mr. Harriman is dead, his tremendous interests will be carried on without interruption, say his friends.
