The Palatka Club.

The popular and growing social and
athletic club of our city yesterday moved
into its new quarters, the club having
leased the two upper floors of tie Mann
building on Lemon street. If an archi-
tect had been employed specially to
arrange rooms for such an organi-
zation he would have hard work TO
improve on the present quarters. Just
at the right and in front as you go up the
steps is large room which viii be very
handsomely furnished, with piano and
brussels carpet, and furniture in keeping,
which will be the reception room. Just
back of this is a neat and coy smoking
room, supplied with the leading period
icals, while in the rear of this will be q
billiard room, containing one of the
finest tables in the city. Going M stairs
to the third floor, in front we ind large
pool room having two very fine pool
! tables, and otherwise nicely furnished
and carpeted. Back of this is the lunch
room, where meals will he furnished
from a restaurant attached, which is also
nicely furnished. The rear room, which
is large and airy, is fitted up as gymna-
stun, supplied with all the appliances
necessary for such place.
Take the rooms all in all, they are as
convenient and handsomely furnished,
having all the conveuiences of water and
gas, as can be found IN the State, or per-
! haps in the South. The membership of
the club now numbers forty-two, and the
prospect is that it will soon have ut least
one hundred names enrolled, as large
number Join at each meeting. The club
is a fixture, and is an institution that Pa
! latka should be proud of.

y Colored Man Gives Has Experience
with n Republican Candidate Give
Us the Truth.
Editor PALATKA NEWS:
| had resolved not to say any thing
either for or against either party's can
didates during the present campaign,
but " hen the time came 10 vote march
up to the polls and vote for the man Of
my choice, let them be Democrats or
Republicans. In the meantime I take il
for granted that my political convictions
are too we'll known TO require an eX-
PLANTATION.
When l read your special corr5sFon-
dents letter from McNIeekin charging
G. p. Fowler with having STOPPED to
low things in the adjustment OF bus
mess entrusted to him, that is, To settle
all damages incurred by the FIoridl
Southern Railway Company 10 peoples
cattle along the line of that road, and
his manner of trying to gain votes
thereby, brings fresh 10 my memory
low, mean trick this same Fowler perpe-
trated upon me, some two years ago.
while he filled the position of private
secretary to General Manager Conant. of
the Florida Southern Railroad Company.
Fowler received the nomination at the
hands of the Republicans Of this county.
as delegate to represent this county in
the Constitutional Convention TO con
vene in Tallahassee to frame an organic
law for the people of Florida. While in
conversation with Fowler on the subject,
l told him that l did not think him fit
person to represent this county in so au-
gust body, and would vote against him
when the time came to vote. / had. and
at the time of the conversation, was tiII-
ing the position of Janitor tor the build
ing. Fowler said to me, that on can
not stay in this building any longer.
Sure enough, in less than two DAYS from
the time of our conversation, l received
notice that my services were no longer
wanted.
This is the kind of man G. p Fowler
is. Now who could corscienciCusly Vote
for man of this stripe 10 represent .
people in the legislature OF cur State:
y man that recognizes nothing too low
IN the way of gaining votes. l had
hoped, prior to the Republican county
convention, that the Colored men OF this
county had become tired OF being bossed
by such men as Fowler. Hind aud 9TH
ers, claiming to be The Moses for them.
when, 10 quote SgripturaI phrase,
"they are wolves in sleeps clothing.
| say, colored men, brace up and give
such men the So-by on November 81.

Coatesvilie's Unhealthy Water Sup
piy.

CoATEsvILLE, PA, October 2O.-The
people of Coatesville are excited over the
condition of their drinking water. 1t
has been known for years that the water
was not as it should be, but the fear has
been increased the past few days by the
fatal termination of a case of typhoid
fever within a few feet of the supply
dam. The stream which supplies this
dam runs about a mile, during which il
takes up the drainage of several farms,
hog pens and cesspools. At meeting of
the Scientific Circles of the town the
subject was brought TO public attention
by paper on preventive Medicine" by
DIR. L. V. Swing. Several members
spoke on the subject, one of whom stated
that tramps had been seen washing their
clothes in the dam. The stream and
dam are in a filthy condition, and. If the
fever once gets prevalent about the dam.
the town may be visited By an epidemic
such as afflicted Plymouth short time
ago.

Deafh of Mrs. Mann.

We regret to chronicle the death of
Mrs. Anna NJ. Mann, which occurred in
this city at 1880 o'clock yesterday morn
ing. Mrs. Mann was the mother of the
late Alderman y. w. Mann, and had
been resident of Palatka for more than
twenty years. She was 81 years of age
at the time of her death, and her long
and useful life was blessed to the close by
the love and tender care of those dear to
her, and the tender regard of all who
knew her.
The funeral will take place this after.
noon at 3 o'clock, from the Catholic
Church, and the friends of the family
are invited to attend.

An Old Citizen.

In conversation with Mr.. Charl, IS II.
Bell, of this city, yesterday, we le armed
that he was one of the oldest citiz ems of
PaIatka, having come here in 1S3 i,when
Palatka was simply GovernmeII 1T post.
He was the first person ever me FRIED in
the town, the marriage havip e taken
place in q house that stood where Fry's
block now stands, in the year 1910. Mr..
Bell was riding the Government express
at the time, and passed through many
thrilling adventures with the Indians
who infested this section at the time.
\ few days after his marriage they
shot his horse from under him, while
about nine miles from town, and chased
him afoot till he reached what is now
known as Palatka Heights, they fearing
to follow him further. The lot where
the Putnam House now stands was used
for the Government stables, where the
stock used for the express and other
Government purposes were kept. Mr..
Bell went through the Indian wars, and
tells many rich "reminiscences Of the
| times that tried mems souls.
He has watched the progress and
rapid development of Florida with no
little interest, and no one takes more
pride in the substantial growth of the
| Gem City than he, and he has spent the
| greater portion of his seventy years in
! this vicinity.
