Rev. fiicks Ellis in BrOOkhaven.


Rev. Hicks Ellis, who did the
preaching during the protracted
services at the Methodist church
last week, greatly commended him
self and the Gospel to those who
had the pleasure of hearing him.
Mr.. Ellis formerly lived in Brook
haven during the pastorate of his
father, Rev. John Ellis, and was
then a very young man, noted for
neither piety nor conservation; and,
hence, the fact that he has devel-
oped into a strong, jealous and
faithful minister of the Gospel, is
something of a surprise, as we'll as
very great pleasure to many Of
those who knew him many years
ago.
Mr.. Ellis is as forceful in his de-
livery as truth and sincerity always
are. He convinces one at once in
a few well-rounded. thoughtful pc
RODS, that he believes what he says;
and what he says would make good
reading for a quiet hour, when
shorn of all the added eloquence of
oratorical effect. He is a most
pleasing and convincing speaker,
and is a strong preacher. The
church and Brookhaven profted by
his service. There were nine addi-
tions to the church during the
meeting -Brookhaven Leader.

Some Cotton dinners Figures.

In the list of cotton ginned in
1908" as tabulated from ginners'
reports-published in the Herald
to-day-it will be seen that Missis-
sippi is credited with 1892, 100
bales. This is a fair rverage show
ing, but there are wide county va
riations as compared with the crops
of preceding years. For instance,

As a rule the eastern and the mid

While in many portions Clai-

upon the whole the county's yield
was above the average, as will be
seen by the above figures.

There'lI BE A Time.

Hon. James NJ. Chesser of Hollis
ter has his announcement in this
paper JUS candidate for Represen-
tative in the Legislature before the
approaching Democratic primaries.
Mr.. Chesser will be remembered
for his active canvass for this office
in the primaries two years ago,
when he was one of the leading can
didates, being defeated in the second
primary by Mr.. Wall by some eighty
votes.
Mr.. Chesser is a campaigner of no
mean ability, and as an orator on the
hustings has few equals for native
wit and eloquence. During the cam
paign now on he may be looked to
confidently for the injection of some
ginger into what otherwise might
prove spiritless county campaign.
Mr.. Chesser assures the News that
he has only consented to announce
himself at the earnest solicitation OF
a score or more OF influential friends

PALATKA PYTHIANS
To Celebrate FOrtieth Anniver-
sary of Birth of their Order.

The mombeTs of St. Johns Lodge,
Knights of Pythias of Palatka, are
making preparations for fitting
celebration of the founding Of that
order in their spacious lodge rooms
next Thursday evening, February lS,
Prominent Pythians from other
cities in the state have been invited
to participate in the local celebra-
ton, and among those who will pro-
badly accept are Attorney General
w. H. Ellis of Tallahassee and r.. J.
Rifles of Jacksonville, past supreme
representative of the order.
The lodge Mt Crescent City has also
been invited to join with their local
brethren in the celebration.
After the 'doings" at the hall the
members and their guests will in
dulge in banquet which will bepro-
yided by Mr.. Charles Kupperbusch
ut the European Restaurant.
The order of the knights of Pyth-
las was founded by Justus II. Rath-
bone, who wrote its beautiful ritual
at Il little old school house at Eagle
Harbor, town which stands on the
bleak shores of Lake Superior in
Michigan. Here the first lodge of
the fraternity was formed.
At that time Eagle Harbor was II
thriving town of 1000 inhabitants.
Now the village is almost deserted.
Today not more than forty people
live there, though years ago the gov
ernmcnt spent 100000 on the harbor.
The little old school house where
Justus H. Rathbone wrote1he Pyth-
ian ritual still stands, but it is fast
going to decay.
Relic hunters, knowing the history
of the order and its founder, are des-
ecrating the building and are carry
ing away pieces of lumber torn
from it.
TO the tens of thousands Of mem
bers of the order the little old school
house is sacred. They do not want to
see it removed from its surroundings,
which mean as much to the order as
the building itself. But, on the
other hand, there are none who
would not gladly see the structure
taken to some more central point if
that is all that will insure it against
destruction. There was Il movement
to have it preserved and converted
into q museum for relics of the
order.
This ought to be done, FOR should
the Pythians get to be as old as the
Masonic order, which points back to
King Solomon and his temple, they,
too, will want something in the
shape of Il building to historically re-
vert to.
Justus H. Rathbone was not a
Solomon, and his little old school
house was not temple, but under its
homely roof he formed a ritual on the
Fatherhood of God and brotherhood
of man that will teach friendship,
charity and benevolence as long as
this old world shall last.

BURGLARS CAUGHT INlACT
Narrow Escape for Policeman
Dan Sanford.

Palatka is not good town in
which to practice the profession of
burglary. That has long been known
among members of that 'profes-
sion" That is why there has been
so little of it attempted here.
Occasionally some novices at the
business make an attempt, but there
is usually something doing by the
police about that time and the at
tempt ends in disaster to the man
behind the mask.
Policemen Dan Sanford and Frank
Hagan met some of these people last
Tuesday morning about 2 o'clock.
Sanford was walking up Lemon
street near GroomsN bakery when he
was told by Moses Saucier, the
penutta man, that there was some
one in Ringham's saloon. Sanford
stepped quietly to the front of the
bar and peered in only to discover
that Saucier was right. He eau
toned the latter to stay in front
while he went to the rear. Jumping
over the fence back of the bar he ap-
preached the back door which he
found open. AS he started to go in
Sanford heard II noise behind him
and turned only to see II man behind
box.
The doughty policeman then ad-
vanced on the man and when within
two feet of him told him to throw up
his hands. This the man did, but as
he did 50 he shot at Sanford, the ball
passing through his stiff shirt collar
and coming out of bis coat collar.
Then Sanford did some shooting.
His first shot hit the burglar in the
arm, the second one dropped him.
But he wasn't dead. He got up and
made for the fence over which he
climbed only to fall into the hands
of Frank Hagan who also pumped
some lead into his carcass.
In the meantime and while this
shooting was going on two men
emerged from the saloon. At least
one of them shot at Sanford, who re-
turned the fire, though he did not at
the time know that his original as
sailant had been disarmed.
The two men in the bar got away.
In going one of them gave Sanford
another close call, as shot from his
pistol grazed the side of his linen
collar opposite where it had been shot
by the first man.
By this time Chief Hagan, who was
at home and asleep with his watch
dog ear on the alert, came to the
rescue. The wounded man was TAX
en- to jail. He had some six or seven
balls in him, most of which have
been probed for and extracted. He
is one-armed negro. His name
may be Dennis.
The burglars got something under
dollar in change from the till and
perhaps some whisky.

What Is perhaps tie shortest street
in the world is West South Division
street in Buffalo. Furthermore, 1t has
only one side. South Division street
proper runs cast from Main, but the
old surveyors allowed it to cross Main
street and run for thirty feet on the
west side where it intersects Erie
ltreet, which runs diagonally south
west from Main. On the north of
West Division street is Shelton square,
so the short street has but its south
side to call its Exchange.
