The following simple recipe for the
preserving of corn and string beans has
been given before in these notes, but
since corn and beans are on tap again
this season as usual it is worth repeat
ing Boil corn on ear for about fifteen
minutes until milk is set, cut and scrape
from cob and mix thoroughly with salt
at the rate of four parts corn to one
of salt. Put in clean scalded stone jar
and cover with cloth and plate as in
case Of sailed cucumbers. The same
recipe works with string beans, which
should be cooked until tender and mix
ed with salt as above. One lady reader
who tried this recipe for corn last sea-
son lost her supply because she put the
salt and corn in layers instead of mix
ing before packing down.

PALATKA GETS
ANOTHER FACTORY
Making Fourth to Move Here
Since Tampa Strike.

wednesday arrangements were made
by +. LoZano Sons Co., Havana cigal
manufacturers of Tampa, to open fac
tory here on Monday.
This firm secured lease of the Tor
floor of the Canova building at the cor
ner of Lemon and Second streets, and
stated that they would be ready 10 begin
the manufacture of cigars here by the
first of the coming week.
F. Lozano Sons Co.'S factory at Tampa
has employed some 200 cigar makers,
but the room secured here will not ac-
commodate much above 75 But ii was
the only available place. The room
was formerly used as fraternity hall.
This makes the fourth factory to move
from Tampa TO Palatla during the pres
ent strike. The three already located
are well pleased with the place and are
getting along in fine shape. The men
all appear 10 be well pleased with Palat-
ka and are not slow in stating that fact.
AS result additional cigar makers arc
coming from Tampa every day and are
given work as soon rs they arrive. Some
50 additional cigar makers had arrived
here this week up to thursday morning,
most OF them going to the Balbin BroS'S
and the Jose EScalantc factories. The
three factories now running are opcrat-
ing with about Is cigar makers each,
but are looking for additions to their
working forces daily.
The Tampa strike is no nearer settle
ment now than it was three weeks ago,
and the business interests of the big ci-
gar city are suffering great loss.

still. But Larsen was still master OF
the boat. The engine was working and
the boat swerved into the shore eddies,
avoiding entirely the stronger currents
Of the whirlpool, which would have
meant certain death.
The water that was taken In during
the stormy passage through the rough
est part of the rapids settled into the
fly wheel pit when smoother water was
reached and was thrown by its revolu-
tions to the spark plugs and ignition
equipment, thereby short circuiting the
current and stopping the engine
The Ferro then drifted short dis
tance until caught by short eddy that
carried it to the American shore and
lodged 1t firmly between the rocks
Larsen wanted to free the boat and
finish his journey to Lewiston, but he
was advised to abandon the mile and a
half trip through comparatively calm
water, and was soon persuaded to land.
A Gorge car carried him to Lewiston,
where at the hotel a great crowd was
waiting. Larsen was cheered to the
echo as he stepped from the car. He
changed his wet clothing and when he
again appeared the ovation was re-
peated.
From Lewiston, Youngstown and
Niagara Falls every car brought a crowd
and for nearly an hour the conqueror
of the whirlpool was busy shaking hands
and receiving congratulations Demands
for speech we're made, but Larsen
seemed more afraid of the crowd than
the rapids and modestly retired to his
room.
Hardly had the Ferro been tied up at
the PITT dock when hundreds rushed to
see the little craft Penknives were
whipped out and in few minutes the
Ferro lost more to souvenir hunters than
it had lost in its encounter with the
waves and rocks.
When docked the Ferro was in perfect
condition, except that the engine was
submerged in water that had leaked
through the canvas which Larsen had
tied from the gunwale to his waist.
When we stand and look at the Mia
CARA Rapids it seems almost a miracle
that boat and engine could have en-
dured those troublesome waters, for
even minute, and in making his won
derful trip Larsen certainly dem0nstrat-
ed that manufacturers are progressing
along the lines that insure the utmost
safety to lovers of the hea,thful sport of
motor boating.
This type of motor boat is for sale in
this city by the Palatka Automobile d
Supply Company.

Has Fine Storage Plant.

A little west of the old G. S. & +.
depot the Gulf Refining Company OF
which H. NJ. dc Montmolln is the Pa
latka agent, has recently erected large
and completely equipped bulk storage
plant. Alongside the track is a large
warehouse into'which pipes reach from
three large storage tanks of 10000 gal
Ions capacity each. From these pipes
barrels and drums as we'll as the larger
cans for local use are filled.
The contents of the tank cars is trans
fcrred TO these big storage tanks through
pipe lines. The cars are pushed up on
an incline the top of which places the
bottom of the tank car on 4 level with
the top of the storage tanks, the pipe
connection is made and the oil unloadS
itself.
The tanks are numbered I, ? and 3,
one being for kerosene, one for naptha
and one for gasoline. Col. de Mont
mollin states that he is now selling more
naptha than gasoline; that launch men
claim il is a better fuel and that it is'two
cents gallon cheaper than gasoline.
The buildings, the tanks and the sur
rounding fence are painted an East
Coast yellow, and presents an appearance
of up-to-now convenience for storage
and economical handling.
Col. de Montmollin has represented
the Gulf Refining Company in PaIatka
for some time and has built up a large
business not only in fuel and lighting
oils, but in lubricating oils as well. His
business includes machinery, and saw
mill supplies, of which he has a large
trade in all this section of the state

Despite the fact that the Canadian
and American authorities signified their
intention of preventing the trip on the
grounds of attempting suicide, crowd
of fifty thousand filled every available
vantage point along both sides of the
river before starting time. Larsen was
late starting and all kinds Of stories
were In circulation among the crowd,
one to the effect that he had been ar
rested by authorities. The stories had
an effect and when Larsen did go only
about one-fifth of the original number
saw him.
At about clock Larsen started his
engine and as the FerrO shot out into
the stream a mighty cheer arose from
the crowds in the parks on both sides
of the river and on the Upper Steel Arch
Bridge. Hardly had the There he
goes !' died away than thousands watch
ing on the river bank taking up the cry,
"iIe's comingw Through the still
waters between the starting point and
the Lower Arch Bridge the Ferro travel
ed about six miles an hour. As the lit
tie heat caught the first breaker of the
r she was tossed back. But only
for second. With her engines work
ing III full speed the FerrJ cams to her
oWg. crossed the first of the white
carved combers and the race with death
was on. AS the Ferro entered the Rap
ils mighty cheer arose and hundreds
oP cameras were focused on the little
white speck, now cresting on a wave,
now submerged and now tossing from
breaker to breaker.
Hardly had the FerrO got into the
Rapids before it was caught on wave,
carried into the trough of the wave and
lost to sight. In twinkling 1t was
again In sight and hardly had the
There he is !" of the crowd burst forth
than "He's gone again I" followed In
chorus. Larsen was sticking to his
most and was in complete centroi OF the
little boat Once the FerrO was caught
and tossed fifteen feet into the air.
When il struck the water again 1t was
almost on its side and for fifty yards
Larsen skidded from wave to wave, his
head but a few inches from the water.
Bnt the Ferro soon righted herself, and
like a shot plunged forward to conquer
The vet unmet difficulties.
Once Just before the whirlpool was
reached. the Ferro turned a complete

A "Nose for News"

The Jacksonville Metropolis evidently
has "nose" for news. That is 10 say,
il is able to smell it from afar But only
after the news gets 10 be ancient history
after modification has set in--iS il de-
tcctcd by the Metropolis, and then only
by the nose.
For the past several weeks under the
head of Palatka happenings the Metrop-
oils has copied verbatim on Wednesday
evening many of the leading items from
the Palatka News of the Friday before.
What enterprise
The News really has no objection and
does not complain at the Metropolis lack
of courtesy in neglecting TO give this pa
per proper credit. Pilfcring of this sort
has been the policy of the Metropolis,
in so far as this paper is concerned, for
many years, and any other course sud
denly assumed might induce paralysis
But we do submit that ii requires a
heap of nerve on the part OF this great
metropolitan daily" with clicntage that
comes near covering every kitchen and
stable in Jacksonville, and is making
such heroic efforts TO cover the same
field here, to feed its patrons on stale
rather than fresh ncwS-the kind they
are paying for.

DROWNED IN SURF
OF DAYTONA BEACH
The Fate of L. M. Gallagher
Was Well Known in
PaIatka.

In full view of great crowd of peo.
pie on the pier and beach, l.. M. Gala
CHER well-known travelling salesman
! for the Cable Piano Co. of Jacksonville,
was swallowed by the turbulent waters
of the Atlantic breakers and his body
carried out 10 sea at Daytona Beach last
Sunday afternoon.
Gallagher, who was stopping at the
Troy House in Daytona, went to the
beach in company with w. H. Sitting,
10 enjoy the surf bathing Both, It's
said, drifted into one of the numerous
deep holes made by the recent high
tides. 1t is said that Mr.. Stilings first
got beyond his depth and that Gallagher
went to his rescue, but the testimony
on this point is conflicting.
The tragedy occurred near the end of
the pier, which was filled with people.
Above the roar of the ocean they heard
Gallaghcr'S pitiful cries for help.
Capt. II. Y. Snow of this city who
was on the pier and witnessed the
drowning, states that rope was secured
and several attempts were made to throw
il so that Gallagher could catch hold,
but that each attempt failed. Capt.
Snow threw the rope once, and S. A.
Baker at another time.
George Sweeney started in the surf
for the drowning man but became so
weakened that he was obliged 10 turn
back and had 10 be placed under med-
cal care. Before Mr.. Sweeney reached
the shore the drowning man had diSap-
peared.
The drowning occurred in full view
of the crowd at the Casino and of guests
on the piazzas overlooking the beach.
Gallagher's body was washed ashore
at Scabreezc, nearly two miles north of
the place where he was drowned on
Monday afternoon. The body was
turned over to the undertaken, and after
being cmbalmed was shipped TO the
home of his parents, Moberly, Mo.
Gallagher was single man.
Lawrence NJ. Gallagher was we'll
known in Palatka, Crescent City and
other places in Putnam county, where
he placed many pianos for his company.
He was at the Saratoga Hotel here only
five days before the drowning. He was
a pleasant gentleman and had many
friends, all of whom are saddened by
his tragic death.

mail carrier connected with the Palatka
post office was arrested yesterday morn
ing charged with carrying a concealed
wearor He had the weapon "a modern
repeater OF he finest make) on his per.
son when arrested.
On his examination before Justice
Marshall, Rigdon made no defense cx-
cept TO state that he had secured Ii,
ccnse from the county commissioners
and had executed a bond before Judge
Coke, which gave him permission to
carry the gun.
Justice Marshall held that said bond
did not give permission TO carry a weap-
on concealed, and the judge imposed a

in the county Jail. Rigdon declined the
services of an attorney, saying that no
one could state his case better than him
