United States flag came down to the

the United States naval man left the

those now on exhibition on the walls

Although the Cormoran is but a small

The Cormoran arrived here from

The Cormoran had an interesting
cruise about Samoa. The chiefs, their

Prof. BrOadus' Lecture.

The lecture of Prof. Edmund X.
Broadus of the Stetson University,
at the rooms of the Woman's Fort
nightly Club, last Friday evening,
was literary feast in theme, thought
and expression. All who were priv
LEGGED to be present We're delighted.
The subject of the lecture was, "The
Beginning of the Drama The lee
turer traced the gradual decadence OF
the ancient Greek drama to its en-
tire disappearance and the extinction
of the dramatic art from the world
in the dark ages. Two faint lines of
connection between the ancient and
modern drama We're the production
of a few dramatic pieces by monks
and the use of the dialogue form of
composition, resembling somewhat
the Book of Job. These were used
exclusively for religious instruction.
The modern drama had its beginning
in the IntrOits of the Roman Catholic
mass service. The Introits led on to
the Moralities, and out of these arose
the Interludes, and from the Inter
ludes came Comedy. The meanwhile
Morality was written in England
with King John as the central figure.
And so the medieval world advance
ed to the comedies and historical
plays of Shakespeare.
The development of thought was
logical, clear and simple, the illus
trations even Illuminating, and the
language choice and chaste. Prof.
Broadus' next lecture is set for Feb.
%, and the subject is, shakespeare"
Miss Mclean, of the faculty of
Stetson, will lecture Feb. 81, on 1.-The
Industrial Revolution.
The Fortnightly Club deserves the
thanks and patronage of all lovers of
literature in our city for their laud-
able undertaking of securing the ser
vices of these excellent lecturers for
the people of Palatka. t. p. H.

FLoRAHoME LETTER.

Pres. John g. Vanatta arrived on
Friday of last week, bringing with |
him his wife and three children TO
spend several months.
A large force of men is clearing
land in the orchard tract prepare,
tory to planting more pecan anu
peach orchards.
On Tuesday sixteen acres OF pecans
were set out for Mr.. A. Baldwin by
the company.
Mr.. A. 9. Woodcock and family,
and Mrs. H. G. Tucker from Inter
lachen spent Saturday afternoon
here.
Mr.. Thos. Tilden has moved into
his new home just east of the town
limits. The house is two stories, SIX
rooms, plastered throughout. 1t al
so has bath room, sinks and sewer
age system.
The company has just issued a new
advertising pamphlet, consisting
purely of testimonials from people
living here. From the willingness
with which these letters were given,
it appears that the settlers at Flora
home are very generally pleased
with their investments here.
An interesting program was offered
at the regular monthly meeting OF
the temperance organization on
Wednesday evening. Debates and
readings, music by quartette and
recitations were the main features.
Mr.. Chas Tilden who has been
spending the winter with his brother
has returned to his home in St.
Louis.
Frosty nights and freezing tempe
natures again remind us that here,
as we'll as in the north, spring has to
make several efforts before making a
successful entrance to the stage.
A. J. Knave has three large tObac-
co beds planted. He has had years
of experience in Kentucky and is
fully convinced that large profits can
be made in growing this crop here
The soil, he says, is just adapted tC
it's needs. At San Mateo, twenty
miles southeast of Florahome, they
are having great success with tobac
co, and especially can they produce
very fine wrapper tobacco that is
gaining wide reputation.

had occasion to rejoice, in that they
have been blessed with an addition
to their family-a brand new baby.
Last week the young people had {

What Bond Trustees Are Doing

Asked what the Bond Trustees
were doing, DR.. Grill, president OF
the board said: VERY little so far
beyond getting figures from litho-
graphers as to the cost of printing.
The form of the bond has been agreed
upon and prepared, and this has been
approved by the city attorney. The
trustees are going slowly and doing
the work right at every step. There
have been several inquiries from
New York capitalists as to when the
bonds would be placed on the mark
ct. This will be done as soon as they
can be printed when we will adver-
tise for bids. Yes, [ think they Will
sell at good premium. They are
frst-class and there is no reason why
they shouldn't"
The doctor stated that it would be
impossible to get them on the mark
ct in time to go ahead with street
work this spring, as owing to the
state quarantine regulations the work
of tearing up city streets would not
be permitted after May LIST until the
| fall.
