The New Putnam House Opens its
Doors to the Public.
The readers Of THE NEWS have good
idea of the extent and splendor of this
new mammoth hotel, and there remains
but little to tell them, save of the open
ing, and the guests, which were plenti-
full, on yesterday. At an early hour
yesterday morning guests begun to ar
rive, and every train and boat that ar
to the register.
Mr.. Oscar G. Barron, who is a famous
hotel man, and one of the proprietors of
the celebrated chain of White Mountain
hotels, consisting of several of the most
noted summer resorts, is the lessee of
the Putnam, and his fame as a hotel
man is a good guarantee that the Putnam
at all times will be kept up to the high
est standard and rank among the best
hotels in the south.
The furniture is all of the newest de-
sign and beautiful finish, and the rooms
with elegant carpets and excellent ven
tilation, have a most attractive and
home like appearance.
Mr.. B. II, Enos, the architect OF the
Putnam, certainly exercised great skill
in the plans of the house, as there is not
a more beautiful and conveniently ar
ranged hotel to be found in the country.
The builders, Messrs. Warwick and
Gerke, of this city, have executed the
plans of the house almost, if not quite,
to the letter. Florida pine figures prom
inently in tina wood work, and in its
| hard-inish state presents an appearance
that equals any wood to be found.
The dining room is one of the hadsom-
est to be found in the south, being Ak
100 feet, and is lighted and ventilated to
perfection. The large windows on
either side make the room as light as
possible during the day, while sixty
four gas jets will shed floods of light in
| every nook and corner at night. The
kitchen is a model of convenience, its
arrangements all being as near perfect
| as human skill and experience can make
| them.
The ladies reception room and the main
parlor are all that beautiful furniture and
stylish arrangement can make them. The
| rotunda is beautifully finished apart

leaves nothing which could suggest an

tunda news stand will be erected,
where the Palatl1a NEWS, and all the
leading daily papers from all parts of the
country will always be kept on sale.
The house is fitted up with the most
modern and improved apparatus, and
every nook and corner of the house Will

\ perfect system of water works will
carry the water to every part of the
house. On every floor are several bath
rooms, which viii be supplied with hot
and cold water, The water for the
house will be furnished from an artesian
well on the lot, and forced through the
house by the use of large steam engine.
The New Putnam is one of the largest
hotels in Florida, having accommoda-
tions for five hundred guests. 1t is fur
nished with every modern improvement,
including elevator, gas light, and, in
general, all appliances for comfort
and convenience. 1t occupies an entire
square, thus securing light on all sides,
and the best ventilation. 1t has n spac-
ious court in. the center which will be
filled with the choicest flowers and
tropical plants. The sanitary arrange
ments are not equaled by any other no.
tel in the state, the plumbing being
thorough and systematic, and the drain
age perfect. On each floor are several
rooms arranged en- suite, with chamber.
parlor and bath. Open fireplaces in all
the parlors and many of the sleeping
rooms insure comfort at all times.
Protection against fire is afforded by
fire plugs and hose at the head of every
stairway on each story.
In connection with this. we might add
that tourists and invalids will find no
more delightful region in the south than
Palatka and vicinity. From the win
dows of the Putnam one looks out up
on the magnificent st. Johns river, its
broad surface dotted with steamers and
sailing-crafts of all descriptions. Or
ange and lemon groves cover the sur
rounding country; and the walks and
drives in all directions are romantic and
beautiful. The sportsman will find the
hes. of hunting and fishing in the vi
cinity. The boating is unsurpassed.

THE LABOR WAR.
A New Organization Rapidly Growing
Throughout the Southwest


ST. Louis. April lS.-There is another
organization that is rapidly growing
throughout the Southwest. This is the
law and order league. Six members of
the Sedalia league called upon Mr.. HoXie
yesterday and told him he need take no
precautions in future to protect railroad
property there. The league had made up
its mind to do so. There are no Knights
of Labor in the league. 1t is almost GER
tain that the militia will remain at East
St Louis until after May |, and it is not
improbable that they will be established
in this city about that date. 1t is more
than likely that an attempt will then be
made by labor organizations to force EN-
ployers to agree that eight hours shall con-
sttute days work. Coal miners are eX-
pected to play an important role in the
movement. So far employers here have
taken no steps to provide for such a CON
tingency, and should the movement come
to a head and the demand of labor be re-
fused, the result is certain to be unfortu.

decline to serve on committee and that
they will have nothing to do with the

executive committee left here last night

every $1,000. Now, why this ditferencc2 In the
first place the foreign companies come into
the State for gam, to car away more money
than they leave The law therefore requires,
first, that they shall pay license fee second,
that they shall pay heavy tax on their year

men who furnish the capital of the company
require better interest than can be realized
in banks. Now all this extra expense must be
borne by the parties insured whereas in the
Mutual, nothing is paid but the losses, as in
case OF State and town taxes. Now is II for
