This immediate community and the

whelmed with sorrow about s o'clock
last evening at the announcement by
telegraph from Gainesville that the pas
senger train had been wrecked at Sweet
Water Branch, near Gainesville. and that
the passengers were perhaps most of them
killed, and knowing that three of our
young men were aboard. two of our
physicians and the section hands at this
place went hither on the first train gong
for relief. The train was thrown from
the trestle. a distance of twenty feet.
Mr.. NARROW was the first to emerge
through a window, much bruised and
shook up. Mr.. J. F. Hammond had his
wrist fractured and otherwise bruised.
Mr.. John McRae, a brother of our towns
man, T. j. MCRae, had his foot fractured
and his nose fearfully broken. The
physicians of Gainesville had rendered
the best of surgical attention before the
arrival of physicians. The wounded are
at home and kindly cared for. \ kind

instant death for it was a fearful wreck.

The School House Again.

The people of Palatlla have subscribed
nearly one thousand dollars towards
building the school-houses so much needed
in the city, If the Boards of County
Commissioners and Public instruction
are not convinced of their authority to
act by the letter of Major Russell. pub
lished in THE News, Palatka will feel
their failure to act very deeply in the
future. If we had proper building we
might claim not only good school with
all its manifold blessings, but also
secure the location of the Normal Acad-
envy to be established for the education
of teachers in Putnam and adjacent
counties. These will be greater advan-
tage to our city than even the much
lauded door and sash factory for
which we have waited so long. Hither-
to our growth has been mainly material,
but even from business point of view
we must now look to the advantage and
necessity of moral and mental improve
ment as well. Palatka has heretofore
confined itself to its reputation as bust
ness community; it will soon be a rail-
road center for an immense area of rich
tributary country; if to these we add the
advantages of good schools, we can
shorten by many years our gradual
growth to the Importance towards which
the Gem CITY aspires.
