Mr. Gus Lee went down to Ex¬ celsior Monday, to enter for the term in the Excelsior High School.

Call at the Times office for Florida Oranges fresh from the grove, C >1. Groover returned from his Florida visit last Friday, and re¬ ports h tving had a most enjoyable trip. The fine fish and oysters, together with an assortmebt of spring vegetables and sunshine in the midst of winter, certainly cap¬ tured his heart if not his purse.

COMB TO THE TIMES. No. 41. CLEAN UP THE TOWN. At its meeting Tuesday night, the town council passed an im¬ portant ordinance, which is pub¬ lished in today’s Times. It pro¬ vides for the removal of garbage, rubbish and debris, and the pro¬ motion of the health of the town. We understand that there is some disagreement among the members of the council in regard to their powers in such matters, and as to what authority should be assumed in the direction of clean¬ ing up the town. We learn that some members of the council are desirous of taking seme steps to¬ ward giving the town a clean and attractive appearance, while oth¬ ers are inclined to the confine opinion that the council should its authority to such garbage and de¬ bris as the sanitary committee might regard as threatening to the health of tiie citizen’s. The au¬ thority of the ordinance just pass¬ ed is limited to this class of gar¬ bage. But the Times believes that the council would have met the iiearty approval of the tax payers of the town, if it had extended its au¬ thority a littld further, r i he old empty barrels and boxes thrown out in open lots, and the old wreck¬ ed houses and shelters and dead trees scattered around over more or less of the private property of this town, do not endanger any¬ body’s health; but they are a dis¬ graceful feature ol the incorpora¬ tion, and should be removed.
