The sponge reef of Florida begins few
miles east of Apalachicols, and hugs the
coas. to within 90 miles of Cedar Keys; then
there ia a break of 100 miles, after which it
reappears and runs south without interrup-
ton to Key Vast and the Bahama Islands.
This reef, rocky ridge, sometimes OF gen-
uine limestone, but generally Of coral, be-
gins some six or eight miles from shore and
continues out indefinitely; In fact, where
ever there ia rocky bottom sronges are
said to be found, aud the only reason that
the fisheries do not extend completely
around the Gulf coast is that in placer, as
off the coast of Texas or Cellar Keys, this
rocky bottom begins in water TOO deep 70

The average depth of water on the 81.

16 feet. The sponges are in great abund-
arce and Of good quality, being much bet
ter than those from the coast of Mexico,
but rather inferior TO the Bahama variety.

THE PALATKA FERRY WHARF.
The Matter Settled Yesterday The
Bndge Question Still Unsettled.

Bridge Question Still Unsettled.
Rumors were flying thick and fast
yesterday about the railroad bridge
across the st. Johns River at this point.
One statement was made that work
would begin to-day by the driving of
piling just north of the Florida South
ern wharf and that the bridge was to
connect at that point with the Florida
Southern Railway. But these were ru-
mors.
A representative of THE PALATKA
NEWS had an interview with Mr.. U. j.
Railroad, and he said that nothing def
tine had been arranged about the bridge,
but that a wharf was to be constructed
opposite the city and both the st. Johns
and Halifax and st. Augustine and Pa
latka trains would use it for a ferry
wharf till the bridge question was set
tied. He would not say where the west
ern terminus of the bridge would be.
1t was learned from another source
that the wharf would be extended out
land at it, and that a warehouse would
be erected on it for freight.
This work is to commence Monday,
and will be completed about the time
the connection of the two roads is COM
pleted. The grading is to commence
Monday also and the work rushed to
completion.
Col. s. b. Carter, the well known rail-
road man, has the matter IN hand and it
is safe to say that the work will be well
and speedily done.

Was it an Aerolite /?

A stone believed to be of meteoric ORR
gin was found about two weeks ago in
the middle of road near MIddleburg,
Clay County. 1t was found half buried
in the midst of a depression apparently
made by its fall, broken into two pieces.
The stone appeared to be an iron ore,
covered with small Opaque white crys-
tails. The larger piece weighed zoo
pounds and the smaller one about eight
pounds. Mr.. A. s. Chalker, who found
it, gave the stone to Messrs. Sweeny and
Allen of the steamer Twilight to be taken
to the Sub-Tropical Exposition. The
stone was found early in the morning.
There was a thunder storm the night be-
fore during which the stone is supposed
to have fallen.

When the southbound freight train
of eighteen cars, on the Jacksonville,
Tampa and Key West Railway, reached
the curve about three and one-half miles
ing the engine left the track. viii
Shelley, the engineer, remained long
enough to reverse his lever and then he
took a header through the cab window,
escaping with only shaking up. The
engine struck a bank and stopped, but
not before ten cars had been badly
smashed and many of them tele-
scoped.
The fireman, who jumped from the
engine, was found under a lot of grain,
but not seriously injured.
A tramp riding ON flat car loaded
with brick was thrown thirty feet and
said he had travelled all over the country
but had never seen such brick batting
as that before.
The accident was attributed to a
spreading of the rails, rotting of cross
ties or something of the kind. Several
of the cars contained freight for Palatka
parties.
The wreck was of such magnitude as
to make il necessary to lay temporary
| track around it and the first train to
come through was the Cuban Mail,
which arrived at Palatka about 6
| O'Clock.
The accident occurred in a cut which
\ was filled with the grain and broken
cars.
