AUTOMOBILE PARTY
VISITS BARRETT

Since the advent of the pleasant
weather business has picked up at
Barrett Springs in a surprising man
ner. Many of the lessers are engaged
in taking out ore and next week it is
expected that several carloads will be
shipped.
Within the next day or two the
1910 will begin hauling two carloads
of ore, which will presumably be ship
ped to the Hazen sampler.
A. C. Bulls has nearly a carload
lease, which will be. shipped the COM
ing week.
On the Carly & Lugwig lease on the
1910, a shaft has been sunk to a depth
of from Is to 20 feet and tomorrow a
force will begin hosting ore to the sur
face. A vein from 6 to inches in
width has been encountered which will
run in the neighborhood of 800 to
the ton.
Will Begin Work on Ramolia Lease.
J. E. Kendall is expected to arrive
from Carson City within the next day

the Ramolia lease owned by Kendell &

Automobile Party Visits Camp.
Yesterday party of Winnemuccans
accepted the kind invitation of G. w.
Carly to take an automobile ride to
Barrett springs. Included the num-
ber, in addition to the host, were Hy
Bonnifeld E. A. Ludwig, ]. M. Blood,
of the 1910, W. ] Sisson, of the Cup
to-Date,o and a representative Of the
Silver State.
The start was made from in front
of the Elite, with Chaffeur Carly at
the wheel, and even mnoey was freely
offered that the round trip would not
be accomplished before sundown. By
a coincidence this happened to be the
case, but it was not the fault of the
machine or the chaffeur. So much time
was lost in inspecting properties along
the route that two members of the
party returned in Jake Leick's stage.
AS the hour was getting late when the
machine Reached camp it was con-
cluded to remain over night and in
spect the great camp by daylight. The
party left on the return trip at noon
today, making the home run in 20
minutes.

Mills Insured for About $50,
OO0-.-WiII be Rebuilt.

When the deep bass voiced whistle at
the Wilson Cypress Co.'S. mills in this
city sounded the signal that started the
machinery and called the 200 or more
employees TO their daily tasks last Mon
day morning, there was no thought in
the minds of the men that within two
short hours these mills would be a heap
of burned and smoldering ruins, but
such proved TO be the case.
No one can tell just how the fire
started, and 10 no one in particular be-
longs the credit of the fires discovery.
The fire was under headway like a
flash and all who were engaged on the
lower floor of the saw mill saw it sim
ultaneously with the first flash.
This occurred at GAS a. M, or just IS
minutes after the machinery was started.
Everything was running smoothly, with
the men in their accustomed places.
Suddenly this flash of flame was seen
on the ground floor of the mill near the
main shaft
The men rushed for The fire apparat.
us, but with the machinery running ii
was impossible, considering the location
OF the blaze TO work as rapidly as the
occasion demanded. So rapidly did the
flames spread that the men had TO flee
for their lives before the hose in the
mill could be attached. In shorter
period almost than ii takes 10 tell the
story the whole interior of the saw mill
was a mass of flames.

On Wednesday afternoon the Palatka
News received the following telegram;
Tallahassee, Dec. 5th
Editor PALATKA NEWS
Am in Congressional contest, reports
to the contrary Notwithstanding. Please
make editorial correction.
r. HUDSON BURR.
This telegram is in reply TO short
editorial mention in the News of last
week, of rumor that Mr.. Burr would
probably withdraw. Since that editorial
comment was published, several men
prominent in state politics, have stated
to the News that "they did not think
Mr.. Burr had ever made any positive an
nouncement of his candidacy.
But be that as it may the above tele-
gram will set all reports of withdrawal
at rest, and will act as positive an
nouncement of his candidacy for Con
gressman from the Second District.

SONG SERVICE TO
END PASTORATE
OF Rev. H. DutiII at St. James
Methodist Church Next
SUNDAY Niuht.

Next Sunday will mark the end of the
fourth year of Rev. Howard Dutill's
pastorate of St. James Methodist church
and according to the polity of the Meth
odist Episcopal Church South, that pas
torate must end.
There are some advantages, which the
statistics of h c various Evangelical
churches will show, favor this appoint
ment system for pastors in the Southern
Methodist church. AS somebody has
said: By this system every church is
provided with pastor and every pastor
is sure of a job
1t is only when the system removes
from the pastorate some good man who
has led his people wisely, who has
worked in all departments of church
work in perfect harmony with them,
and who has come TO be beloved by
all, that the system seems TO work a
hardship in the removal of that man to
other fields.
Such a man is Rev. H. Dutill. He
has the love and confidence of the en-.
tire church membership. They regret
that they must give him up, but as they
know they must, have decided TO cele-
DIdtG his tdot hOul Win tiiSh III oCl'
vice of sacred song.
Rev. Mr.. Dutill has not only the love
and confidence of his own church peo.
pie, but the good people of Palatka
generally without regard TO denomina
tional lines, honor him and will say
farewell with much regret He has
been a potent force in all good work
for the moral uplift of the city. He is a
wise leader whose counSels will be
greatly missed.
Next Sunday morning Rev. Mr.. Dutill
will preach at the usual hour, and ex
cept for some remarks in the evening
this will be his final sermon as pastor oi
ST. James.
At the evening service of song the
| following program will be rendered.:

SMITH MURDER
CASE POSTPONED.

The trial of +. L. Smith, sheriff OF
Volusia county, charged with the muir
der of VIM. A. McGaskill OF Drayton
Island last September, and who was in
dicted by the Putnam grand jury at the
October term of the Circuit Court for
murder in the first degree, was called
in the circuit court of Alachua county
at Gainesville last Tuesday morning,
but at the instance of the state the trial
was continued TO the spring term of that
court.
II is said that the state has new and
important evidence, and that was one of
the reasons for asking continuance,
though there are said TO be others.
The attorneys for the defense made
vigorous protest against continuance
of the case, but Judge Wills allowed the
motion.
The trial OF this case went TO the
Alachua circuit on change of venue.

many years supply of timber in sight TO
justify the building. OF course new
mill would mean more modern plant.
AS TO time required for rebuilding, that
is hard to fix, but think il would take
fully six months of the most energetic
work TO put US in position to saw lum-
ber again."
The Wilson Cypress Co. being the
greatest employer of labor in Palatka,
the loss OF its monthly wage payments
will certainly be felt The loss TO the
company is heavy. 1t is also heavy
loss TO the men in its employ and may
make considerable difference in their
Christmas plans.
The big smoke stack of the planning
mill, which toppled over in the fire,
crushing an adjoining roof, is expected
to be replaced by the end of the week,
so that this mill can resume operations
by Monday.
