From West Putnam.

Editor PALATKA NEWS:
have heard great deal said of late
about old Putnam" desire to inquire,
if some one will inform me, where old
Putnam is? We have young man in
our community that does his ''darnedest'
at everything he undertakes, at least he
saws so. Now. I have made that kind Of
an effort over the map of Florida and l
can't find it. e., cold Putnam" The
Herald was exercised very much a few
issues back. over the slice we are going
to cut out of ''OId Putnam Now we
are not going into old Putnam at all,
nor new Putnam, either; SO these two
COMMITTEES need not matter. Only small
slice cut off Alachua, Bradford, Clay and
Putnam each. There is a lot of us here
that want to be officers. We want to
make some sacrifices for the good Of the
people. We know we are competent,
and the several counties in which we
live don't seem to be aware of our abili-
| tv and worth-they don't seem to appre-
ciate US. SO we have concluded to
make a new county and then we will
| have the dead wood on things. These
are not all the advantages, Of course, |
simply mention a few of the most i'm
portant. l may mention others in my
next communication.
You know when children are grown
they ought to marry and set up shop for
themselves, and can see no good reason
why the corners of these four counties
should not get married and raise a family
of their own, and as you are always
ready to aid all great and commendablc
projects, we are relying upon you for
your assistance, and as ! expect to be
chairman of the Board of County Com
missioncrs, l will use my influence to
have you made an official organ, as there
is no paper at our county site.
Crops as a general thing good. Rather
too much rain.

comparatively comfortable condition. He

his nourishment without difficulty and is
quite free from pain. At the consultation

Being present, it was found that the
swelling under the angle of the
Jaw on the right side had increased in size,
that the glands were still indurated and
deeply fixed, also that there was tendency
toward diffused infltration into adjoining
tissues of the upper and anterior portions
of the neck. There was consequently some
rigidity of the jaws, preventing the WIDE
opening of the mouth, thus in measure in
terfering with examination of the throat
The palate at the curtain was somewhat
swollen, but the destructive process at the
side of the uvula had not marked
extended. No change had been noted in
the appearances of the right tonsil region,
nor in these of the posterier part of the
pharynx. The liberation on the right side
of the base of the tongue showed tendency
to extend backward was more eXcavated
and had an elevated and indurated border.
At the examination on Wednesday, made
bv Drs. Douglas and Shrady, the local con-
ditions were found to be unchanged.

TWO SISTERS CoNVlCTs.
Two Women With Infants in Arms Sent to

Two Women With Infants in Arms Sent to
the Penitentiary.
MADISON, Wis, May 2l.-In the Munic;.
pal Court yesterday Mrs Rebecca Merraot,
of Baraboo. and Mrs. Margaret NJ. Cooley,
Of Mitchell OAK, sisters, pleaded guilty
20 the charge of perjury. They have now
each been sentenced to two years in
States prison. Each woman when SEN
tenced had an infant in her arms. Kneel'
ing at the feet of the Judge they
piteously pleaded for mercy "for their ba-
bies' sake" The scene was heartrendering
one. Judge Braley with tears in his
eyes, said the law was memorable, but he
would fix the lowest penalty prescribed. The
women then prayed and sobbed and uttered
terrible shrieks as they were finally removed
by the officers. They said that man named
Kirby had threatened their lives if they did
not swear as they did, and that they had for
years lived in mortal terror Of him. Both
pectable women of good repute. Their
babies accompany them to the penitentiary.
An effort will be made to secure an eXecu-
tive pardon in their case. These women are
sisters of the wife of James Kirby, alias Sim
mons, q well known craftsman, who, with
a man named Edwards, was last November
sentenced to States prison in Wisconsin, for
five years for burglary in Madison. At the
trial OF Kirby these women swore that they
were in Baraboo at Mrs. Nerraot's home the
18th of July last the night ofthe burglary,
and that Kirby was also there. They also
said that that night Mrs. Merraot gave birth
10 a child. The attempt to prove an alibi
was unavailing, however, and Kirby was
found guilty after most exciting trial. The
women were then arrested for perjury in the
case. 1t was proven that the child was born
May 9th and that Kirby was not present
