Mrs. Olive r. Nye, wife of Mr.. Jay
Nye, one of the proprietors of the
Graham House, died at an early
hour Wednesday morning in her
apartments at that hotel, Of heart
failure. About u week ago Mrs. Nye
gave birth to child, and since that
time has been quite ill.
Mrs. Nye was a most estimable
lady, devoted wife and mother,
and in her death those who were de-
pendant upon her have suffered a
loss that cannot be overestimated.
Deceased was born February 18th,
1858, at Farragut, Pa. She was mar
ried to Mr.. Nye in 1890 since which
time she has been resident of Flor
ida. With her husband she came to
Palatka last December to manage
the Graham House. The body was
taken to Seffner, Fla, last night, at
which place the funeral and inter-
ment will occur to-day. Mr.. Nye
and two little children-a little six
year old daughter and the infant Of a
week-are the survivors, and to them,
though comparative strangers here,
the sympathy of our people goes out.
The bereaved husband is well-nigh
broken hearted at the sudden and
unlocked for death.
F. A. Gerber q Sons have charge
of the funeral arrangements.

After Taking.

G. w, Chalflnch, a former member
Of the Gem City Guards, whose home
was at Buffalo Bluff, and who served
throughout the Spanish-Amerlcan
war in Cuba as member OF Cne
Fifty-seventh Indiana regiment is
now in the navy, seaman on the
Topeka at Port Royal. What ne
thinks of the navy is stated in verse
to a friend in this city, and is as Iol-
lows:
T stood outside and viewed the navy
oh i what lovely sight,
So enlisted, said that | would 90
And for my country fight.
7 hid farewell to all my friends,
And like a hero off did start,
With my mind all filled with Iahcles
And lightness in my heart
By rail the route was pleasing,
And everything went well
Until | went aboard the Topeka, :.
Then | thought / was in--wen II
wont do to tell;
For the decks were lined with rockies
Lankey, lean and stout,
All kinds of freaks Of nature,
Scattered all about.
The decks were wet and sloppy,
Soapsuds everywhere,
Holy stones the scrubbing brushes
Thick as 'skeeters in the air.
They ran me up the rigging,
Morning, noon and night;
They fed me on rice, raisins and beef
No man could bite.
Eight inches space to sleep in,
A rainbow shape at best.
Was all that poor me had
To lay my head to rest.
They took me out for target practlce
Soon after went aboard,
But got so gol darned sea sick
That never fired a load.
So now | stand inside the navy,
On the rolling, rocking deck,
Looking out to leeward
With a longing rubber neck,
Thinking of the past times
That I'd had out ON the green,
But to me they are only memories
Never more to be seen.

An Injustice to Mr.. Wall.
Editor PALATKA NEWS:

EulUOT IALAIhA IN EWS.
1t has been repeatedly stated in
this community that Mr.. John P.
Wall is too ignorant man to serve
as a member of the state legislature !;
that being ignorant, he is filled with
prejudices, and therefore not open to
argument. Is this true?
A. Democrat.
East Palatka Fla, Feb. 18th, 1902.
The report that Mr.. Wall is an ig-
norant man is evidently not true.
The editor has had several letters
from him during the past year, and,
Judging from these our opinion
would be that the writer was man
of fair, common school education.
The editor has heard the same re-
port, himself, but never gave it much
thought. Inquiry among Mr.. Walls
friends since the receipt of the above
letter has convinced us that the re-
port does Mr.. Wall great injustice.
1t is stated upon reliable authority
that during the republican admins
tration of county School Superinten-
dent Chadwick, some 20 years ago.
Mr.. Wall was employed to teach the
negro school, No. 35, at Sister Spring
church, some six miles east of his
present home. OF course the fact
that he was then considered compe-
tent to teach the young colored idea
how to shoot should dispose of the
SANDER now raised against his pure
ly educational qualifications to sit in
the halls of legislation.

Resigns From Naval Academy.

Naval cadet Geo. w. Bassett is
home from the United States Naval
Academy at Annapolis, with his res
ignation in the hands of the Secreta-
ry of the Navy. Mr.. Bassett ac-
knowledges to a feeling of homesick-
ness, and this, together with the de-
sire of his mother to have him home,
led to his resignation. The young man
need make no apologies for the home
sick feeling. No rightminded young
man ever left a good home without
experiencing that same feeling. But
the impression among his friends
here is, that he has made a mistake
in resigning. The young man begins
to think so himself, and he may go
back. It's up to Secretary Long to
say.
George Bassett led in the rigid ex-
animation of applicants from the
Second Florida district about year
ago. In September last he entered
the academy after being subjected to
the rigid physical examination at
that institution. His town people
are pround of him, and his school
mates envy him, and the opinion gen.
orally prevails that he is making a
mistake in lightly surrendering an
opportunity which comes to few
young men. The News trusts that
after a short vacation at home he will
see the error of his way and recall
that resignation. In a measure he is
a public character now, and the pub
lie is Interested to the extent of see
ing that one of our brightest young
men does not lightly brush aside this
splendid opportunity for career,

Married Wednesday Evening

Capt. John d. Points of this city
was married yesterday at Lincoln
ton, N. c., the bride being Miss Jes-
sic Alexander. The ceremony took
place at the residence of the brides
mother at $50 p. m. and was COM
paratively private, being witnessed
by the family and few friends of
the bride.
The groom is one of the most pop
ular Of Palatka's young business
men, and has promising prospects
for the future. He is the son of Capt.
Jno. d. Points, ex-mayor and the
present head of the water works, and
is the captain of the Gem City
Guards.
The bride visited Palatka some
three years ago when her charming
manners won for her a wide circle of
friends.
Mr.. and Mrs. Points will reach
here on Friday and will be at home
after that day at the residence of
Mrs. Gray, corner of Oak and Fourth
streets,

City Election Not Far Off.

The annual election of municipal
officers will occur ON Tuesday, the
9th day of April, a matter of a little
over six weeks.
So far as the News is able to learn
there has been but little talk of can
didates up to the present time, but
some interest should be aroused by
some one, and that soon. Beside a
mayor, 10 aldermen are to be elected,
and these will have to do with the
expenditure of the big sum of money
for city improvements which will
come from the sale of the recently
authorized bond issue. For this one
reason alone care should be exercised
in seeing that good, level headed men
are nominated. The council will not
spend the money directly, but it will
have the power to block or acquiesce
in the work of the bond trustees.
Therefore careful business men
should be elected.
The men composing the board of
bond trustees are among the best bus
mess talent in Palatka. The council
should measure up to the same stan
dard of ability.
The incoming mayor will not have
the disagreeable features of the office
as now constituted to confront him.
The police court work will be taken
from his hands and given over to a
municipal Judge. The position will
then be simply one of honor, with
the power of veto. Such being the
case it ought not to be hard to get a
good man for the sacrifice.

pl L ultUhb NtWSs
e ladies of the philanthropic
S Ach of the Womar's Fortnight
ly Club through the columns of your
paper wish to call the attention of
the people of Palatka to the efforts
they are making towards bettering
the condition of our streets and
sidewalks.
These ladies have had placed ON
the streets neatly painted barrels
marked with the letters w. F. c., as
receptacles for the refuse which has
heretofore been thrown on the streets
by a negligent public; and there will
hereafter be no excuse for the past
untidy condition of our thorough
fares.
The city authorities have assured
the club of their sympathy and CO.
operation in the work they have
undertaken, and they will now be
called upon to put into practical ope-
ration those ordinances against lit
tering the streets with waste paper,
fruit skins, etc, which already eX-
list, but because of a lax public senti-
ment have not been as rigidly en-
forced as they should have been.
The club has also covered num-
Der of street crossings with a layer
of palmetto fiber, to the lasting
gratitude of many weary pedestrians
and cyclists. And they hope to do
much more work in that line.
This is an educational work and
these ladies hope by persistent eff
forts to create such sentiment for
well-kept and traversable streets
that the city authorities cannot af-
ford to disregard it. There will also
be an appeal made to the mothers of
families and the school teachers, to
teach the children that it is Ill-bred
and vulgar to be careless Of their
surroundings and the comforts of
others, and to try to instill in them a
desire to make their own yards and
sidewalks as attractive as possible.
Now, if anyone feels inclined to
scott at the work of these earnest
women and their trash barrels Gas
l know some have done) will he
kindly come forward and suggest
some other practical plan for better
ing the condition of our town; for
making it look more like a white
mans town? We will be grateful
for any reasonable suggestions. 1t
has been well said that neatness and
attractiveness have moneyed value.
With the help of the city officials,
for it has been demonstrated that
to paraphrase an old saying-an
ounce of law is worth a pound of per
suasion, the women of this club hope
to raise the reproach that now rests
upon our town of being one of the
most ill-kept and unattractive places
in the state and making it indeed a
Gem City.
In conclusion we would like to
thank the mayor and the city coun-
Gil for their kind words of encourage
ment, and the many merchants of tn
town, who have greatly helped by
donating the barrels to the cause,
thus saving us much expense; also
the Monkridge Manufacturing Co.,
for the palmetto fiber which it 50
kindly offered us. We now expect a
ready and willing compliance with
the laws against throwing trash in
the streets from the rest of the pub
lie. Respectfully,
A MEMBER OF THE CLUB.

The Federal grand jury at Tampa
has found true bill against W. E.
Metford for robbing the Orlando
postoffice a few months ago. Met
ford is morphine fiend, and there is
much sympathy for him, on the
ground that when loaded with NOR
phine he is not responsible for what
he does. But then irresponsibles
should not be permitted to run at

Counterfeit silver Dollars,

Counterfeit silver dollars were
passed at John w. Hagan's bar yes
terday by two negroes. The money
was taken by Mr.. Hagan's son during
the absence of his father. The bar
is out five dollars in goods and change,
the till showing that amount of the
queer" The same parties attempt
ed to pass the bogus silver at other
points, but so far deputy Kennerly
has been unable to find any one else
who had been duped. The money is
a very poor counterfeit, and yet in a
hurried trans action would be easily
accepted by an unsuspecting person.
The money was all passed and at
tempted to be passed by two negroes.
