Candidates Sneak,

SthuiuutCS CpCths
The first guns of the congressional
campaign in Palatka were fired from
the court house on Wednesday night.
They were of the smooth bore kind.
The audience was not large owing
to the inclemency of the weather and
the further fact that q well-advertis-
ed church bazaar held a prior claim
to public patronage.
The speakers were Hon. Frank
Clark of Lake City and Hon. James
E. Alexander of DeLand. Hon. s. ].
Hilburn acted as master of ceremon-
les, calling the meeting to order and
introducing the speakers, the first be-
ing Mr.. Alexander.
The speech of the honorable Jeems
can not be regarded as a political
classic, but it was funny and enter
tanned the audience. What he had
to say was but repetition of what
he says in his buttOn-hole street con-
versazioni-a simple heart to heart
talk in which he promised,
in the event of his election, some
thing for all his friends. Just before
beginning his speech, colored boy
entered the room bearing aloof a gil
ant boquet of flowers which he hand
ed to Mr.. Alexander. The card at
tached bore this inscription: From
the Ladies to Our Jim. " Some heart
less person present suggested that
Jim had bought the flowers himself
and there was a laugh. What popu-
larIzes Mr.. Alexander's candidacy in
this neck o the woods is his loyalty
to "Bob." Davis.
Mr.. Clark is always interesting.
He is one of the brainyest men in the
district, and he made an excellent
talk, into which he injected just en-
ough of the eloquence that has help
ed to make him famous to create a
strong desire on the part of his audi
ence for more. Mr.. CLARK can hold
his own in measuring blarney with
MIR. Alexander, but blarney is not his
leading card. He rises to the serious
side of a congressional campaigR and
has some appreciation of the dignity
which attaches to a candidacy for
such an exalted Office. He has prom
Used Palatkans a thorough discussion
of the situation when the campaign
is fully opened, the assessments paid
and he knows whom he has to fight.
Both speakers made friends. Both
are good fellows and entertaining
takers,

Obituary..

Mrs. Alexander Duff Curry was the
oldest daughter of Eli and Mary Bun
nell, and was born in Lake City, Florida,
February Goth, 1858 At q very early
age, she was bereft by death of a
mothers care and love, but with
younger sister she found a second
mother in her aunt, Mrs Theodore P.
Pease Of Darien, Ga, who took them to
her home, and bestowed upon them a
mothers affection and care Nurtured
in this refined Christian home, she grew
to young wOmanhood, and on Nov. 18th
1879, in her 22nd year, she was happily
married to Mr.. Alexander Duff Curry
of Decatur county, Georgia. She re-
moved with her husband to cambridge,
Ca, and later to South Carolina. But
the most of her married life was spent in
her native state, whittier his business
had led her husband, and for several
years past her home had been in Pa
latka, Fla.
Here in this city, after a painful i'll
ness Of about ten days, surrounded by
loved ones, who did all for her that de-
votion could suggest, she PASSED from
her happy earthly home to the still hap
pier home beyond, at 3 o'clock on Sab
bath morning, November 22nd 1908, in
the 10th year of her age. She leaves to
mourn her departure her devoted hus-
band, her adopted daughter, Mrs. G. H.
Lyme OF Palatka, her aunt and foster
mother, Mrs. T. P. Pease, her sister
Mrs. Fleming s. Way of Chattahoochee,
Fla, and her brother Mr.. Alvah Bunnell,
of Daytona, Fla, and large number of
sorrowfng friends In Georgia and
Florida.
1t is needless to say that Mrs. Curry
will be missed by an unusually wide cir
Gle of friends and acquaintances. Her
brightness and buoyaucy of disposition,
her kindness of heart, and her generous
service OF others, made her beloved of
all who knew her and drew to her many
friends wherever she lived. Such a
character as hers could only be the fruit
of life lived In communion with her
maker. While yet in her glrlhood she
gave her heart to Him, and became
member of the Presbyterian church of
which she remained a consistent COM
municant until her DEATH Though her
sufferings In her last illness were intense,
she uttered no complaint, but bore them
with Christian fortitude, and surrounded
by those whom she best loved. She
died, as she had lived, in the faith of
Him, who said: I'm my Fathers house
are many mansions; go to prepare
place for you"

THE AUTO SHOW SEASON.

A good many automobile shows are going to in
terest the lovers of the horseess vehicle in various
parts of the country within the next sixty days,
while the aiety, two will probably buy few seats,
wag their heads and marvel at the ingenious produc
tions of this wonderful age in which we live. There
will be auto shows in the east, west, north and
south, and from social standpoint the auto will
have about as much show III the auto show as the
horse has in horse shows Our old friend Carrie
Nation has recently drawn attention to the real OBJ
ipct of these shows.
The auto has passed successfully through the
stages of inyentIon experiment, luxury, comfort,
necessity and is in that peculiar situation of
being commonplace thing in all large cities, al
most within the reach of the ordinary folk, and at
the same time the fad of the fashionable The auto
is at the forking of the road. If it goes way
it will be cheapened and become the handmaiden
Of the general public, and unnterestingIy useful
(socally) as the bicycle. The 400 will look for
something else flying machines dirigi5le balloons,
for it would never do to admire thing in the use
of which the common herd is sharing.
In RELOCATING the horse, society has turned from
it's love of the beautiful and noble living thing to
dote over wheels, cogs, shining rods and mere me-
chancal contraptions, where the skill of the
chauffeur must be seconded by the craft of the ma
chinist. Really an auto can inspire no more love
or admiration than ten-penny nail or II monkey
wrench, though it costs more and is perhaps more
valuable to mankind, against the other, though
not as Indispensable
When you get right down to it, the alteration
Of the auto is like idoIizng switch engine. Each
one is mechanical device and needs man to run
it.
As to the auto show itself it has already beaten
the horse show in important respect. The
American horse show has heretofore and probably
always will be strictly national affair, while the
coming series of auto shows will bring to this coun-
try automobile enthusiasts from all over the world
These noted personages will add social prestige to
the gala events, and the social side is already SO
large that the great game of showing off, reads
about thuswise; Women's gowns, 250; autos, .;
horses, |.

A yard or lawn always looks barren
without some ornamental trees and

As an apple Or pear orchard will last
a lifetime, particular care must be tax

If currants and gooseberries are prun'

To have a good garden the land must

During the winter is the best time to
apply it.
Nearly all house plants will be bene

People Who Cannot Make Fires.


The Papuans of the Malay coast OF
New Guinea are still in the most prim-
tive state. They are wholly unac-
quainted with metals and make their
weapons of stone, bones and wood.
They do not know how to start fire,
though fire is used among them. When
a Russian asked them how they made
a fire, they regarded 1t as very anus,
ing and answered that when PERSONS
fire went out he got some Of a neigh
Dor, and if all the fires in the village
should go out they would get 1t from
the next village. Their fathers and
grandfathers had told them that they
remembered time or had heard from
their ancestors that there was time
when fire was not known and every
thing was eaten raw.
