AT THE HOWELL.

Palatka people generally will be pleas
ed to welcome the return of Miss Mabel
Paige and her splendid company, who
are billed for the New Howell theater
on Wednesday and Thursday of next
week, December 9th and 9TH.
On Wednesday night Miss Paige's
company will present "The Lost Trail. ~
This play was written by Anthony E.
Wills, the novelist. "The Lost Trail
according to the parlance of the theater,
is not melodrama, as some would seem
to think, but is strong play dealing with
the people and scenes of the west.
There are no murders TO shock, nor any
other forms of stage clap-trap. The play
has a purpose, and the heart interest is
of the kind that holds. At the same
time there is enough of comedy in each
scene to keep the audience in excellent
humor and expectancy from the rise to
the fall of the curtain.
Another new play TO Palatka will be
presented by Mable Paige and her com.
pany the second night. This is the nau.
tical farce "Billy." This is said to be a
great laugh producer.
Tonight and Saturday night The Great
Alvin Shows will be at The Howell,
with popular prices.

in an auto last Monday night and arrested
five men who were engaged in catching
and Shipping fish from Lake Grandin
One man only was white, Mr.. Chesser,
late of Gainesville, who was directing
affairs. Complaints had come in from
that section, and some of the fishermen
had been assured that they had secured
rights, or fishing privileges from owners
of abutting land. But Mr.. Kennerly Sc
cured legal advice before making the
arrests. He says no one can sell fishing
privileges on lakes.

Palatka Realty Values Steady

The recent sale of Lemon street pro-
perty TO prominent citizens and old resi-
dents of Palatka whose judgement OF

done much TO give fixed valuation to

This sale was of the 50 feet frontage
on Lemon street, at the corner of Fifth,
and extending back $50 feet.
The sale was by Mrs. E. H. MacGreg.
or TO Dr. w. H. Rosenberg and l.. A..
Smith, at $1,000, or 500 per foot front.
1t is stated that the new purchasers

to move the small frame buildings back

PaIatka Cbeatres
ORPHEUM ATTRACTIONS.

Last Monday night fully 500 people
attended the moving picture exhibit at
the Orpheum theater. The pictures
were magnificent. There was one, with
lecturer on the stage to explain, show
ing the interior OF the Ohio penitentiary
at Columbus. This was also shown
Tuesday night. Probably one of the
most interesting picture reels of the
week was that showing the gorgeous
parade on the occasion of the Corona
ton of King George. Palatka people
certainly appreciate Manager Kalbfield'S
efforts, as shown by the nightly audi
enceS.
"The Rosary" is announced for the
Orpheum Tuesday night next, Dec. 5th.
This is play filled with human interest
as all who have read the story know.
The central figure of the play is Rev.
Brian Kelly, parish priest of Irish birth,
which character was sustained TO perfec-
ton by Mr.. Henry Nelson. His appear
ance, his voice his poise, his every
movement was so faultlessly realistic as
to make the auditor lose sight of the fact
that it was mere acting. The real priest
stood out in every line, look and word,
and there was more than one impressive
sermon preached in the clashes that
were had between the man of God and
the worldly-minded characters repre-
scented in the play.
The cast, as whole, was clever, and
the audience was responsive to the
varying situations, bursting forth in en-
thusiastic applause now, and again sub
siding into hushed, impressive silence.
"The Rosary" is clean play, and in
such clever hands as presented here last
night is an unusually strong one.-Ex.
1.-THE Chorus Lady" has changed its
date at the Orpheum to Friday night
next, Dec. 9Th. This is said to be a
very bright and frolicsome effort at de-
picting life behind the scenes and con-
tains some specially catchy slang. The
entire play is said 10 be model in pure
comedy.

SECRET OF THE BURLAP RUG
PICKERING Can Be Avoided by Work
Ing Stitches LooseIy-Pretty e.
fects Possible.

"Handsomer than hooked. crocheted
Or woven rugs!" This was the excla-
nation that sent the eyes of all the
club to Mrs. Browns new burlap rug.
And II really was a beauty.
1T was really very easy" said lit
tie Mrs. Brown, with a pretty blush:
Il Just cut out square Of blue bur.
lap the size wanted, and then | drew
on 1t with crayon a close design Of
scrolls and spirals. Then threaded
a tape needle-a carpet needle will do
or a mattress one-with rag rugs In
two shades Of blue. These strips |
cut half inch wide and not too long,
so that they should not get twisted.
Across the width of the rug | sewed
these Just as close together as posi-
BILE. And that was all there was to
it,
Won't the burlap pucker?" asked
anxious Mrs. Green.
"Oh. no." said Mrs. Brown, mot II
you are careful to work your stitches
loosely. That is the secret of success
In the making of burlap rug"
And that she had mastered her Sc
cret We all agreed.
