Russians Are Discharged,

F'altan Guirdy and wife, Russians,
who were tried in the police court on a
charge of disturbing the peace of John
Hepp and family by hurting explosive
Russian words at them, were dis
charged. There was no means of de-
termining whether the Russians had
used abusive language or emphatic
language Perhaps they had merely
attempted to open a conversation. No
one was hurt and the foreigners as
simulated the advice to stay in their
own yard so the ends of the law are
satisfied.

Mr. ]. H. Merryday, proprietor Of

been kept separate however Both OF
these gentlemen came to Palatka from
England as young men many years
ago, without capital or influential
friends, and by their own efforts have
succeeded in gaining enviable posi-
lions of leadership in both industrial
and civic lie. Mir J. H. Merryday. in
particular, has occupied places of pub
lie trust for many years, having been
supervisor of county registration .or
four terms and city councilman for
three terms. also chairman Of the
beard of public instruction of Putnam
county.
The Merryday Grocery Company
has been the best known concern of
its kind on the lower St. Johns since

Even at this. they are occasionally
crampcd for room. From fourteen to
twenty employees are engaged in car
rying on the work.
The Palatka Garage is Handsomely
and conveniently arranged through
ont with fine cement floors and all
up-to date safety appliances to OBJ
v;ate danger in handling gasoline and
other innammable commodities. A
machine shop, capable of turning out
all kinds of work in the way OF en-
CINE and car repairing, sheet metal
work, pipe cutting and fitting, plumb
ing. etc, has been installed, and is
paying excellent returns upon the in
yestment which it represents. Speci-
hcations for all kinds Of job work
along the lines mentioned are gladly
furnished, with consultations.
The company has the exclusive
agency in Palatka for the Mitchell
Automobile, the Buick Car, and the
products of the Oakland Motor Car
| Company. All three makes are prov
ing exceedingly popular hereabouts,
and Messrs. Barnett and Benbow find
that their selling territory is gradually
extending lover a very wide area.
Mr.. Barnett also acts as local agent
for the Standard Oil Company.
The members of the firm have been
made exclusive Representatives in Pa
latka and vicinity OF the Zoos Gas
Engine Company, OF Springfield, O.
( The Fo6s company are the largest
manufacturers of these kinds OF en-
| gines in the United States. MeSsrs.

and increasing trade for them here
abouts, Many engines have been in
stalled in Palatka for private lightins
purposes, wood-cutting, etc, and own
ers and builders OF motor-boats along
the st, Johns and down the East
Coast find them ideally suited to the n
needs. A specially is being made OF
the Foos irrigating equipment, which
is the lightest and smoothcst running
thing OF its kind ever invented. Farm
crs and truckers are beginning to find
their vast utility, and in regions where
irrigation doubles and trcbles thu
crop returns, as in many parts of Put
nam county, these magic and moder
atey priced rain-produccrs are worth
their weight in goId-even if they cost
but an inhn.tcsimal fraction of that
amount. Practical demonstrations OF
the capabilities of these engines arc
cheeriully given. Interested visitors
are always shown courteous attention
at the salesrooms and garage.
