have shown most remarkable Increase
over all past rc>rds. The receipts thus far
have more than doubled, and It Is safe to
estimate shat the collections for the pres

H.oOm.mo. By the figures of last year,
which w * re hut a trifle over half a mil
linn. Taniim was placid twelfth on the

figure, Tampa will go up to eighth or sev

reached $:*••-***. and the Indication# an
that the increase will be even larger for
