H. Merwin and son, Charles, were
out from Palatka one day last week,
looking over the grove lately purch-
ased by Mr.. Merwin of Fred Lea-
vett. Mr. Jamison will take charge
of the grove.
Now that the law permits, the hun
ters are out in full force. The most
interesting trophy so far was an
enormous wild cat, shot not far from
town.
On Sunday Hon. d. M. Corthell

the loss of her son, she gives this
service.
j. B. Porter of Liberty Hill. South
Carolina, has arrived and will occu-
py the house owned by the late
Richard Lyon at one time, and now
owned by the Rodman Lumber Co.
As there are six young Porters, we
not only feel there is a boom in real
estate, but also in population.
H. E. Coy and wife of Rochester,
N. Y, were the guests of Rev. and
Mrs. s. J. Townsend. They are on
their way to their winter home in
Avon Park.
J. R. Patterson and little son, Rob-

view of locating permanently if
pleased after seasons sOjourn.
John Owens of Toulon, Illinois, an
old soldier of two wars, a musician
and linguist was entertained at the
Lake View, and by the g. A. r. of
this place sent on his way. At Ma
con, Ca, he was robbed of money
and all he owned, but by care of sol
dlers on the route he will reach Ocala
where friends await him.

Florida Oranges in New York

The New York Packer of last Sat
urday has the following concerning
the New York market for Florida
oranges and grapefruit:
The demand for the Florida citrus
fruits on this market up to the pres
ent time has been far in excess of the
supply, and the outlook seems to be
that this condition will prevail for
some time at least. Supplies during
the week have been extremely light
for this time of the year, and many
dealers report that they are compell-
ed daily to turn away orders for
oranges and grapefruit.
The offerings of these fruits that
have arrived during this week still
show some greenness, but the trade
seem more than anxious to overlook
these defects and are willing to take
them at good prices. Oranges have
been selling at $3.50 to $3.50, and
grapefruit has sold very readily at
So to $6.

Fire Anniversary.

Last night was the twenty-third
anniversary of the great fire that
nearly wiped out the business section
of Palatka, and which destroyed
property which was then estimated
at $750,00O.
The fire started about 9:45 p. IN. OF.
the night of Nov. 7th, 1884, in an oil
house that stood at the rear end of
the now vacant Griffin lot on lower
Lemon street. Itspread rapidly and
by 2 o'clock of the following morning
every building in that block, except
the one now occupied by Jack
Flynn's cigar factory, had been de-
stroyed, also every building in the
block at the opposite side of the
street, the Putnam House block, and
much of the river front.
The sun rose on a practically ruin
ed city, but not on q discouraged peo-
pie. The territory covered by the
IRE was rapidly rebuilt, and with
brick instead of frame buildings.
Palatka was about one-half its
presant size then, but it was a good
business town, and a large part OF its
business was caring for winter tour
lists The travel was mostly by
river.
The Lark ins House was the largest
hotel, and fine one. There was AL

TUESDAY ELECTIONS.
Tom Johnson Defeats Roose'
velt's Candidate For Mayor
of Cleveland.
Republicans Win In Old Kentucky.

Elec tions took place in thirteen
states last Tuesday of which ten
were general state elections.
Possibly greatest general interest
throughout the country was felt in
the municipal elections of New York
City, Cleveland, and San Francisco
In New York the struggle was be-
tween Tammany and fusion of the
republicans and Hearst's Independ-
ence League. In Cleveland, Tom
Johnson was elected mayor for the
fourth time, defeating Congressman
Burton, who is the personal repre-
sentative of the Roosevelt admins
tration.
Complete returns from Cleveland
give Johnson, democrat, for mayor
48,339, Burton, republican, 39,026.
The city council will stand 25 domo-
Gratis and republicans.
Wilson, republican, was elected
governor of Kentucky by l4,000 plu-
rality. The democrats will have a
small majority in the legislature.
The estimated plurality of Croth-
ers, democratic candidate for COVER
nor of Maryland, is 1000. The legis-
lature appears to be safely demo-
cratic.
In New Jersey it may require the
official count to determine the result,
which is very close. 1t is claimed,
however, that Judge Fort, republi-
can, is elected governor over Katz-
enbach, democrat by q plurality of
IT'S. Later advises concede Forts
election by 1000.
Gov. Higgins, democrat, was re-
elected governor of Rhode Island by
plurality of about 5000. The gem
eral assembly will be republican in
both branches.
Sheath the republican candidate
for state treasurer of Pennsylvania,
was elected by plurality of about
175,0O0.
The good government ticket has
been elected in San Francisco.
Curtis Guild, republican, was re.
elected governor of Massachusetts
by a plurality approximating 100000.
Fusion failed in New York county,
the straight democratic (Tammany)
ticket being elected with maiorities
ranging from 10000 to $4,000. In
Kings county (Brooklyn) the repub-
licans were generally successful.

ally shot while out shooting quail

unfortunate accident will be speech

great care and eagerness to effect the
recovery of the patient. 1t is an al
most unprecedented case for a man
