The Gainesville Sun of Tuesday
last contains the following notice of
Hon. b. p. Calhoun:
Hon. Benjamin Putnam Calhoun,
the newly appointed prosecuting at
torney for the Eighth judicial circuit
of Florida, arrived in the city Sun
day night from his home at Palatka
and registered at the Brown House.
In speaking of his appointment,
Col. Calhoun stated that he felt high
ly honOred that Gainesville was in
cluded in the new circuit-and that
he had been selected as the attorney.
He was not expecting the appoint
ment, because he had never given the
matter any consideration, and the
same came as a pleasant surprise to
him.
Col. Calhoun attended the meeting
of the Gainesville Bar Association
yesterday afternoon, at which he re-
ceived the congratulations of his
professional friends, many of whom
he had the pleasure of knowing for
years,

Elmer COLLINS Injured.

Elmer Collins one of the Palatka
base ball team sustained what may
prove IA serious injury in the game
with the All Cubans club at the
base ball park Wednesday afternoon.
While Collins was at bat a swift
ball from the Cuban's pitcher struck
him on the left side of the head
about two inches above the ear.
Collins Immediately became uncon-
scious and was removed to his home.
DR.. Steen examined the injury but
could find no fracture of the skull.
The doctor states that the patient is
suffering from conclusion of the
brain and how serious it may be he
is unable to say at present, but
hopes for the best. At 8 o'clock on
Thursday morning Collins showed
signs of improvement and was able
to talk better. His mind still wan
ders and fever has appeared. DR..
Steen says it will take several days
before he can be out of danger.
Elmer Collins is the second son of
Mr.. and Mrs. N. S. Collins. He is
one of the promising young men of
Palatka and there is deep anxiety
among all the people of the city over
his condition.
The affair was simply on unavoid-
able accident and no blame can at
tach to any one. The young Cuban
who threw the ball is deeply grieved
and the whole of the visiting nine
show deep concern.
On Friday morning young Collins
was still unconscious, with signs of
pressure on the brain. The symptoms
show him to be worse than on
Thursday. At 2 p. m. today DR.
Steen will make more thorough eX-
animation with DR.. w. H. Cyrus in
consultation. They may find ii
necessary to perform an operation.

The picnic of the Veveran's Associ-
alton of the Blue and Gray at De
Leon Springs on Tuesday was n
damp affair. The weather was
threatening at the hour for leaving
and the large majority of those who
had purp0sed going abandoned the
idea at the last moment.
About POO, however, braved the
elements and went on the excursion,
No sooner had the train started than
those who remained at home began
to congratulate themselves, for the
rain then came down in torrents. 1t
rained pretty much all day in Pa
latka.
The managers of the excursion say
that some 80 or more persons were
picked up at way stations, and that
while the day was sodden it did not
rain hard at De Leon, and that they
all had a fairly good time.
There was a pivilliOn at the
Spring and the young people danced
to the inspiring music of the band.

Vessels in Palatka Harbor.

The ships that pass Jacksonville
and other small ports in the night,
and during the day, for that matter,
seem to all head for Palatka.
At any rate six big schooners have
been loading with lumber and shing-
les here this week for Maryland and
New York ports, and that number
probably exceeds the business of any
Intervening river ports.
The schooner RI. Rundlett is TAX
ing on a load of cypress shingles at
Tilghman & Sons mill for Salisbury,
Md.
The schOOners Maud H. Dudley,
John H. May, John w, Hall, VIM.
H. Skinner and Stetson are loading
with cypress lumber from the mills
of the Wilson Cypress Company.
A force of some 10 to u stevedores
is required in the loading of each of
these. vessels and the wages range
from sl,26 to $f,75 per day,

LOOK OUT
FOR MALARIA.

An epidemic of Malaria is sure to fol-
low the wet season and the high waters
which have prevailed all over the
South. Malarial and kindred fevers
will develope to an alarming extent.
General health conditions will be bad;
every precaution should be taken.
The System Must Especially Be Fer.
tIaed to Resist MalaTIsI Attacks.
A trial of fifty years has demonstrate
ed that for this emergency, DIR. Har-
ter's Iron Tonic has no equal. Iron is
the fighting element in the blood, and
the kind of iron supplied by DIR. Har-
ter's Iron Tonic is just the kind the
system requires to successfully combat
malarial conditions. Don't wait until
YOU are attacked. Take it now and for
tify yourself; it is an absolute safeguard
and, at the same time, it is the best
tonic and invigorant for the entire sys-
tenn. On the other hand, quinine dis
turbs the system and its cumulative
poison begets greater physical troubles
than those it is employed to remedy.
Where bad case of chronic Malaria
already exists, take DIR. HARTERS

guaranteed to cure. Price so cents

Take DR. HARTER'S
IRON TONIC


When DR.. McMurry made an adj
dress at the opera house short time
ago on the occasion Of the High
School commandments, he said so
many sensible and striking things
that an opportunity to hear him
again was eagerly wished for by
many. This opportunity came Mon
day night, when he addressed, in ST.
James Methodist Episcopal church,
an audience composed of the most
intelligent and thinking people in
the city.
After graceful introduction by
Congressman r. w. Davis, the doc
tor took up for an hours talk his fa-
vorite subject of Education, and what
he had to say ought to have been
listened to by every parent and teach
or in Palatka. Lectures on this sub
iect are very often mere scissOred
excerpts from technical works deliv-
cred with u pedantic air and in a
style untitled for ordinary compre-
hension. DR.. McMurry is man
with message, who speaks his own
thoughts and speaks them with
clearness and force. A child may
follow with ease all that he has to
say, yet his thoughts are the thoughts
of a man.
Education is not mere instruction
nor a preparation for the commercial!
pursuits of life, but, as the doctor
we'll expressed 1t, the development of
the child's nature according to the
full measure of its capacities, mental,
moral and physical. With this def
milton for Il text, the lecturer unfold
ed the difficult character of the edu-
GATORS task and the almost insOluble
problems he has to overcome. These
are occasioned by the contradictions
to be found in the nature of the child
and in the nature of the work which
the teacher undertakes to perform.
His work is essentially that of harm
onizIng seemingly Incompatible
things. The ideal educator is the
one who combines in himself the
deep and atfectionate interest of the
parent with the technical equipment
of the competent teacher.
DR.. McMurry is an enthusiastic adj
vocate of school education, but at the
same time he lays emphasis on the
fact that the church and the home
play conspicuous part in that pro-
cess of development which turns the
child into a perfect man. 1--WE de-
pend too much on our schools" he
truthfully said; 1.-THE home is the
centre of education" Environment
too, plays its part. There are some
neighborhoods and some commune
ties, he pointed out, whose moral and
intellectual tone is on so low Level
as to render the proper education OF
children in such surroundings almost
a futile undertaking.
The lecture was full of point and
suggestiveness throughout and those
who heard it went away with much
food for thought.

To Boom Palatka.


An effort is to be made in this city
to organize a Board of Trade, COM
posed of the business and profess
sional men, and any others who
are willing to put their shoulders
to the wheel and give the city
push toward that era of prosperity
which is almost within our reach
and to be had for the reaching.
The natural advantages of Palatka
are great and varied. Organization
is needed that there may be concert
ed action in their exploitation.
Such an organization, if entered
into by our business men with the
single purpose of building up Palat-
ka, with the willingness to surrender
individual hobbies and opinions to
the extent of throwing them into
common hopper that they may be
merged into rational compost view
of how best to accomplish the reha-
biliation of the city, could work
wonders.
There was never a town yet, when
the citizens were united in COM
mon purpose to build up, that didn't
make advance strides.
Atlanta is notable illustration Of
this point. The citizens of that city
have gained such a reputation for
oneness of purpose in behalf of the
general good that the idea long since
spread to the utmost bounds of the
state. So general is the pride of
citizens of the state in their chief
city that it has long been said that
''all good Georgian's, when they die,
hope to bring up in Atlanta"
TO come nearer home. Lake City
is the largest, best built inland city
in Florida. 1t has come to be this
all within the past three years. And
the Lake City Board of Trade did
the work.
Jacksonville's Board Of Trade has
made Jacksonville what it is.
But, you ask, what could Board
of Trade do for Palatka? 1t could
do this. Members could meet to
gether and agree on a DO SOME
THING POLICY.
We have some of the very bes
farming and trucking land in the
state right at our door. A few mel
have found it out, worked it ant
made lots of money. A Board o
Trade could induce others to try ant
open the way for them.
A Board of Trade might solve tn
Putnam House problem. AS i
stands at present that great vacan
hostelry is a menace to the city. |
is a public nuisance. A Board o
