AN OFFICERS PERIL.

4 warrant sworn out charging Mr..
Matt Fowler with having sold whlskey,
was placed in the hands Of Constable
W. A. Bishop last week to execute by
arresting the defendant. Mr.. Bishop
drove in a buggy to Fowler's home
above Kennesaw marble works and
found him about quarter of mile
from his house in the woods cutting
wood. Mr.. Bishop sayshe made known
his errand to Fowler and told him
he had warrant for his arrest. Mr..
Fowler grasPing his axe firmly re-
marked: Il have always said that one
man couldn't arrest me and you had as
well 90 back to town, as am not going
with you" Mr.. Bishop began toreason
with him and told him that he was too
sensible a man to resist an officer in the
discharge of his duty and he hoped he
wouldn't give him any trouble. But
Fowler persistently defied the officer
and said that he was not going-that
no one man could take him. Mr.. Bish-
OPP eyed Fowler and that axe very
closely, and jerking out his pistol and
placing it In Fowler's face and grabbing
him by the arm at the same time. ex-
claimed: "You will go, and if you at.
tempt the least resistance | will kill
you" He marched Fowler to the house
where he dropped the axe, got in the
buggy with Mr.. Bishop and was brought
to town and placed in Jail. He waived
trial Saturday and was placed under a
800 bond.

RICE USES A RAZOR.

On Friday night at Alonzo Moreland' s
boarding house, two of his dark hued
boarders got into an alteration about
a dusky maiden, which resulted in a
desperate fight between Fred Rice and
Cliff Harden. As is usual the case.
Rice pulled out his razor and slashed
Hardin's hard head, almost scalping
him. the razor taking peculiar TURF
on his forehead and running around his
head, leaving the scalp Topping like the
ears of hound. Henry Harris, a
"gemmen of color" interfered to keep
Rice from > killing Harden, and he,
too, was treated to the scalping pro-
cess, a long cash being cut across his
forehead. Sheriff Frey and Marshal
Hawkins went over at once to see what
"Baptistown" was shedding SO much
blood about, and Rice fed. Sheriff
Frey went in pursuit and arrested him
near the Ksnnesaw Marble Works. and
brought him back and placed him in
jail. Rice had in his desperate use of
the razor broke the point off and the
handle also. The razor closed on Rice's
hand and made considerable cash.

Applicable to All Towns.

One of the first requisites in build
ing up a town is to want to do it. In
difference has killed more towns
than has misfortune. A united move
on the part of all residents of town
will accomplish wonders and will
overcome difficulties which have
been thought insurmountable. IOy-
atty to ones town is also an absolute
requisite. To belittle ones own
residence place or to decry its at
tempt at progress are like the act of
foul bird befouling its own nest.
To purchase out of ones own town
those things which can be bought of
the merchants in the town is an act
suicidal in its effects and one which
will never tend to build up and
strengthen a community. Loyalty 10

to the upbuilding of city, hustling

he was in the race and to stay until

"And let me tell you" continued
the Honorable James, "when l get

The Walton Truck Farm.

A view of the w. A. Walton truck
farm, little northwest of the union
depot, is the best object lesson to the
value of the lands about Palatka
that could be offered. To have full
value the farm should be seen this
week while Mr.. Walton and his
force of men are engaged in shipping
Il portion of his celery crop.
Mr.. Walton has eight acres in his
tract. 1t is q model farm in that
there are perfect arrangements for
drainage, and for moisture in dry
weather. The tract is planted in
potatoes, celery, beets, and other
crops. A portion of the celery is now
being shipped. In two weeks time
twice the amount will be ready.
This week from one celery bed Mr..
Walton will ship about 200 crates of
as fine celery as can be produced.
That it is fine is evidenced by the
price it is bringing in the New York
market. So far Mr.. Walton's returns
average 81 per gratefully % cents a
crate more than the market quota
tions. People don't pay more than
the market price for poor celery.
In two weeks time shipments will
begin from the larger bed. Then
will come the potato harvest. Early
in the season Mr.. Walton shipped
over $4OO worth of lettuce.
There isn't a man in Palatka but
could profit by a visit to this farm.
Mr.. Walton has demonstrated what
the lands about Palatka are coed for.
Thursday afternoon Mr.. Walton
got a telegram saying 2S crates of
his celery had sold at $3.50 per crate.
