The pic turesque. little palm-fringed dot o: green in the blue waters off, Miami Fla., will be knocked down to th< highest bidder at 1 o'clock in the af ternoon, January 16. . Soldier Key has a history. It has had only two or -three owners since the caravels of Christopher Colum bus sailed in the not far ditsant waters. It used to belong to Spain It is right in the sea paths of ' the old Spanish main and reeks with tales and traditions of pirates and adventure. It is vne of the most beautiful spots so near the American shores. The yachtsman or fisherman from Miami in a 'few minutes' sail brings up the flowing 'fronds of the cocoanut palms which 'shade its snow white beached. While not a regular stop on any marine sched ule, it is a favorite destination for the pleasure-bound yachtsman or Miami reporter. The Vanderbilts, the Whitneys' and the Asters on their yachts have all stopped by. Soldier Key has served the United States well. In the early seven ties, when the rays of the old Span ish, light on Cape Florida, which did well enough for the old gal leons of Spain but which fell far ioo short for the speedy merchant man, became obsolete, the govern ment decided to marke the danger ous reef with a more powerful light built far out in the ocean. The vicinity is the graveyard of scores of ships and seamen. In 1876 the now famous Fowey Light was set up at the Philadelphia Centenial Exposition as an evidence of gov ernment progress. Then it was taken down, stone by stone, each one marked and all placed abroad ships and carried to Soldier Key. the base of. operations for the building of the light. Fowey Light manned by three trusted keepers two of whom are on duty at al times, now flashes its warnings fai out over the sapphire waters of th< gulf stream to ships that pass in the night. It's always June on Soldier Key Rarely does the thermometer climi far into the eighties and it nevei reaches frost. Seventy-five de grees, as the doctor orders, is its mean temperature, the weather bu reau says. It is bathed by the wa. ters of the warm gulf stream and famfed by the strange yet neve1 tiring trade winds. It is only eleven miles fron America's most popular winter playground, Miami. . It is undlerstoodl a prominen Amer-ican expects to purchase it a: a site for a winter- home.
