Mr.. Barrs Visits PaIatka,

Hon. ]. M. Barrs of Jacksonville
spent the day in Palatka yesterday
He was here in the interest of his
candidacy for congress as a successor
to Hon. Robert w. Davis, a mission
he in no way tried to conceal. The
primary election will not take place
until year from next summer, but
Mr.. Bars entered the race some
weeks ago and is going to stay in it
till the close.
1t is good thing for the people
that some men have an ambition for
the public service. When that am
bition is coupled with knowledge
of statecraft which the possessor in
tends to use honestly for the public
veal, the state becomes the benefl-
ciary when that ambition is realized.
Mr.. Bars is one of the brainiest
and most vigorous champions of the
people as opposed to the debauching
influence of corporate control in poll
tics. He believes he has political
mission. He would not be an idler
in Congress. The interests of the
second district would be safe in his
hands, and the people of Florida
would never have reason to blush for
any record he would make in Wash
ington. His candidacy is being well
received in all this section, and he
will get a big vote.

Will Act Next Sunday.

Rev. Thos. 2. Hay announced to
his congregation last Sunday morn
ing his acceptance of the call to the
pastorate of the Gainesville church,
subject to the action of the Presby-
terry. He asked the members to
meet him at the conclusion of the
morning service next Sunday to
unite with him in asking the Presby-
terry for a dissolution of the pastoral
relations.
The members of the church are
not taking kindly to the idea of los
ing Mr.. Hay. The bonds of relations
which unite this pastor and people
may be broken-they probably will
but there isn't a member of the
church who would have it that way
IL they could find a reasonable ground
for protest. The church will probab-
ly acquiesce in the dissolution, but
it will be regretfully and with sad
hearts and a sense of deep personal
loss to every member,

Not Quite True.

The public schools in Palatka
closed Friday for the season. Ow-
ing to lack of funds the schools of
the county were limited to five
months this veal. The usual term is
six months. This action is quite
different from some other counties
in the state. School keeps going,
funds or no funds.-The Metropolis,
The above item was published in
the Jacksonville paper of Tuesday as
an editorial. 1t is only partly cor
rect. The schools of Palatka have
not closed, and there has not been a
thought of their closing under two or
three months. 1t is true that the
schools of the county were linn
tied to five months this year, and
that the term has usually been six
months. In Palatka the city coun-
Gil always makes provision for
continuing the schools of the city
Tor longer period, but this
wouldn't be done without funds, for
our teachers are worthy of their hire.

Trojan Burned to Waters Edge

Trojan Burned to Waters Edge.
The tug boat Trojan, owned by H.
A. Hodges of Satsuma Heights, was
burned to the waters edge at an
early hour Monday morning opposite
Magnolia Springs.
The Trojan was on its way to this
city towing a lighter o lumber and a
raft of logs when the fire was dis
covered, about o'clock in the morn
ing. None of the crew are able to
account for the cause of the fire.
All they know is that they were
awakened about o'clock by the
cracking of the flames about them.
At this time the fire had made such
headway that all thought of saving
the boat was Immediately abandon
ed by the crew and all attention
given to the problem of saving them
selves. Several jumped into the
water and swan for the shore, while
others succeeded in getting off in the
boat. The wreck of the burned boat
is now at Magnolia. The hull will
be taken to Jacksonville for inspec-
tion, and it is just possible it may be
used in new boat.
The men were rescued by the
steamer May Garner and taken to
Jacksonville.
The Trojan recently underwent eX-
tensive repairs at the Merrill-Ste-
vens yards in Jacksonville, and was
in excellent condition. The boat
was valued at $l2, 900 and was insured
for $1,000.

The City Convention.


The city democratic convention at
the council chamber last night was
a perfectly harmonious affair. Har-
mony was so thick it caked.
If there was one idea pre-eminent in
the minds of the delegates tnat idea
was progress for Palatka. The idea
ran lengthwise and crosswise as
warp and wOof through the able
nominating speech, and percolated
through all the interstices of the
speech of acceptance.
The convention was called to order
by Capt. Jno. d. Points, chairman of
the city committee, who read the
call.
Jos. d. Points was elected chair
man and A. S. Willard, secretary.
After the presentation of creden-
tials, nominations were called for the
Office of Mayor. Hon. S. J. Hilburn
arose and in a magnificent speech
placed in nomination DR.. A M.
Steen The nomination was received
with applause. There were no other
nominations, and on motion DR..
Steen was made the nominee for
mayor by acclamation.
The chairman appointed Judge C..
I. Rowton, H. A. Davis and A. Uusi-
ma Il committee to notify the nomi-
nee. This committee retired and
soon returned with DR.. Steen who
was greeted with loud and prolonged
applause as he entered the hall.
On being presented to the conven-
ton DIR. Steen made brief but point
ted and sincere speech of acceptance
and thanked the convention for the
honor. His manner was that of a
man who felt deeply every word he
said and who was fully imbued with
the idea that he was assuming a re-
responsibility. His speech was dig
nifled and received with thunder of
applause at its conclusion.
After naming as his executive
committee l.. Q. Stephens, P. M.
Hagan, F. J. Fearnslde, A. Usina,
Moritz Kohl, A. Ambrose and DR..
H. r. Estes, the convention ad-
jUurned.
A meeting of the executive com
mittee was held on the adjournment
of the convention. The committee
organized by the election of F. j.

secretary,

TEACHER OF FAKE INSANITY

After William Hooper Young, sem
fenced to life Imprisonment for the
murder of Anna Pulitzer, had bid
farewell to his relatives, Assistant
District Attorney Clarke declared
his belief in the existence of a sys-
TEN of schooling of prisoners in
murderers' row so that they would
have the semblance of being men,
tally decanged
Clarke said he had been informed
that Young had for his tutor Harry
Rose, who is awaiting trial for the
murder of his wife.
"PrisOners," he said, "are taught
to give the effect of having lost con-
troll of their limbs and to be unkempt
as regards their hair, beard and gen
eral appearance. They are instructed
to wear old clothes and never to
trim their boards or comb their ha r
Rose is one of the worst specimens
ofthis sort"
1t is stated that accused murderers
are allowed to converse during eXer-
else hours and 10 take advice from
their fellow prisoners. Each trick,
it is said, passed along in this way
until it rests with one whose case it
fits.
These charges are strenuOusly de-
MED by lawyers, who are defending
these men, and by Warden Van De
Carr, who says that such thing as
"school of insanity" does net exist.
