but the disease had gained too great a
hold upon her fragile frame TO be con
quered, and on Saturday last the mess
enger of death came with his imperative
summons, which none can disobey.
The funeral services were held in the
Congregational church and conducted
by Rev. Townsend. Mr.. Schreiner and
children have the sincere, heartfelt
sympathy of the entire community in
this loss which has fallen SO heavily up
on them. They will return soon 10 their
former home in Minnesota.

SAM HILBURN OUT
FOR CONGRESS.

| A special dispatch from Tallahassee i'
| the 81. Augustine Record on Monday
says:
Before leaving Tallahassee Saturday
AFTERNOON for Texas where he will al
tend 10 some private business matters,
Senator S. ]. Hilburn stated that he
fsRouId be a candidate for congress in
thcSscond district. The senator is now
member of the State Senate, is one OF
the best known and most successful
lawyers in Palatka and that section and
was the majority leader in the house last
session at the time the Statewide prohi-
bition constitutional amendment was
submitted to the people. He is very
popular in his district and his friends
will welcome the news of his candidacy
for Mr. Frank Clark'S job and although
Mr.. Hilburn will be very strong man
in the race, the very fact that Congress
man Clark has said that he will run
means that the people of the Second
are going TO see pretty clean as well as
pretty and close race. Recent actions
of Col MacWilliams, representative
from St. Johns, who has been fighting
for convict lease abolition, capital re-
moval to another district. economy, ETC.,
point directly TO the conclusion that he
will also run, but not necessarily ''also
ran" for Mr.. Mac has more friends
over that way than he can count"

State Solicitor Long Praised.

That Gov. GilchriSt made no mistake
when he appointed Hon A. Y. Long as
State Attorney of the Eighth Judicial
Circuit upon the death of the late Joseph
NJ. Rivers, is made manifest by the re-
markable record in clearing the crimi'
nal docket in Alachua county the pres
ent week.
When the regular spring term OF court
opened in Gainesville on Monday of last
week, it was thought that the session
would run atleast three weeks, and pos
sibly longer, as the criminal docket was
quite large. But with the vigor and per
severance which characteriZeS the man,
Solicitor Long went to work with the
grand Jury and in three days time that
body had completed lis labors, having
considered many matters M r.
Long is conscientious prose
cutting attorney, like his predecessor,
and where the evidence does not seem
10 warrant the bringing of true bill, he
favorS a "no-bill," thereby saving the
county endless expense in trying cases
where conviction would be very
doubtful.
During the last week of court, which
adjourned Friday afternoon, fifty-four
cases appearing on the criminal docket
were disposed of, which is remarkable
record, never having been accomplished
here before. Several of these were
capital cases, and the fact that the crimi
nal docket was practically cleared with
in four days should be appreciated by the
taxpayers, who, in a'measure, are called
upon to pay the expenses of conducting
the court.
A portion of the credit for the rapid
disposition OF business belongs to Judge
Wills, and it may be said without fear of
contradiction that Judge Wills and
Solicitor Long make splendid working
team when it comes 10 handling bust
ness in a systematic and speedy manner

Haw Creek Land Sale.

For the consideration of $3.50, goo, over
third of million, 81 thousand acres of
the most fertile lands in St. Johns coun-
ty, located in the southern end of the
county and including the town of Du-
pont, have been purchased from U. ].
White, a well-known citizen, by a
northern syndicate. The deal easily
ranks as one of the most important and
largest recorded IN the county
during the past year or two.
AS the papers have not been filed in
the clerk of the circuit courts office yet
and as MIR. White could not be reached
by the Evening Record today the name
of the purchasing syndicate has not been
learned 1t is expected that the object
of the purchase is 10 develop ii and colo
niZc il.
The land is extremely varied in its
character, the great tract including al
mos every kind of Florida land but all
of it fertile. The purchase includes
practically the entire town of Dupont
also Mr.. White has himself spent much
on drainage of parts of the tract and il
is in excellent shape now for coloniza.
