PUTNAM HOUSE
AGAIN OPENS
Palatka's Famous Palace Hotel
Will Again Shelter Tourists.

Palatka's paIatial hotel, the famous
Putnam House, known 10 tourists in all
parts of the country as one of the most
elegantly equipped hotels of the past
generation, and whose halls have echoed
the voices of some OF the greatest diplo-
mats, statesmen, politicians, as well as
magnates of the business world, has
again been opened TO the travelling
public.
The hotel for the present will cater
only. to the accommodation of those de-
string rooming accommodations. But
this in itself is big advantage TO Palat-
ka. Later on the Messrs. Mcrryday,
proprietors, who will have personal
charge of the house, may decide TO open
a cafe on the Lemon street side. This
is plan not yet fully determined upon,
but is one that the proprietors are giving
careful consideration and at the present
time is so we'll thought out as TO render
more than probable.
The Putnam House has magnificent
furnished rooms both single and en-
suite, and its great lobbies, smoking
and writing and reception parlorS, togeth
er with its great shaded porches, viii
render il attractive TO tourists.
And simply as a rooming house the
hotel should do fine business.
Once the modern cafe is opened The
Putnam will not be very long in spring
ing into its old time popularity, popu
larity second to none OF the great hos
telries of the state.

Increased Ice Facilities.

The Palatka Ice Factory has just COM
pleted the installation of modern plant
in addition 10 the one heretofore in
operation, which has also been modern
lied.
During the past several weeks Mr..
Hayes. representing the York Manufac-
turing Co. of York, Pa, has had charge
of these improvements, and will leave
this week, well satisfied with his job.
When Mr.. Hayes came here he found
a plant with a 19-ton daily capacity.
This has been increased by the addition
of a standard 4O-ton machine, and made
into the flooded system. The old 10
ton machine has also been modernized,
and were the plant TO run continuously,
the Palatka Ice Factory could turn out
50 tons per day.
By running, however, only by daylight
the factory'S capacity is 81 tons.
This, MIR. Canova says, is all the ice
Palatka will use per day in the next few
years, unless its increase in population is
made by leaps and bounds heretofore
unknown.
There never has been any complaint
regarding the quantity of ice furnished
by the Palatka factory. This, however
will be improved as well as increased by
the new system.

Spanish War Vets to Organize

A meeting preliminary TO the organiza-
ton of Camp of Spanish War Veterans
is to be held next Tuesday night, Feb.
9Th, at the office of Capt. J. D. Points,
over Alderman Stewards drug store, and
a full attendance of all interested is
urged.
The young men who went out from
Palatka as volunteers in the Spanish
American war are now pretty well scat
tered over the country, A camp, or or
ganization of those still living, with
headquarters in Palatka, would be en-
abled TO keep in touch with all the en-
listed men, and time may come when
such information will prove valuable.
The government of the United States
has gotten in the habit of treating its
volunteer citizen soldiers most consid,
erately with regular quarterly StipendS,
but preliminary to such work the gov,
ernment usually wants TO know some
things that only comrade in arms can
give. With an organized camp the ap
plicant can always find the comrade.

An "Eye-Sore" Disappears.

For upwards of rs years an old rusty
iron boiler has laid next TO the railroad
track at Laurel and Second street. 1t
was on the grounds of the A. c. l.. R'y.
recently leased 10 the Woman'S Club
for park purposes.
Last Tuesday Mrs Geo. f. Gay,
chairman of the club committee on pub
lie parks, took a gang of men TO the
boiler and had them dig a deep hole
alongside into which, with the aid of a
force of men from the Tilghman mill,
it was rolled. Then Mrs. Gays men
covered up the old eye sore. Looks
better there now, but when the street
is paved and the ladies begin to beautify
the grounds-why, then it will look
like pretty picture.
And again are the thanks of Palatka
people due these good women.

Business Property Changes.

The store property on upper Lemon
street belonging to Mrs. Ella V. Grooms,
was sold on Wednesday by H. Finley
Tucker & Bro. to S. n. Mislet; the con
sideration is not given, though the News
is informed that the price paid was
quite in advance of the values formerly
placed on business property in that To-
cality.
Mr.. MiSlet was formerly in business at
DeLand, but after looking about the
state settled on Palatka as desirable both
as place of residence and promising
for business opening.
H. Finley Tucker s. Bro. who have
been making specially of city property,
and whose business has shown a steady
advance in all departments through theil
six years of business, report that there
is more inquiry for property here now
than in several years and that prices
have decidedly upward tendency in
all desirable sections of the city. This
firm is an authority on realty values.

EARNEST GO. TO
INCREASE CAPITAL
From $4,000 to $4,000. Busi-
ness Has Made Steady
Growth.

The Earnest Company opened its
modern dry goods store in Palatka four
years ago, when il occupied the double
corner stores in the Merryday block.
Since that time the business has grown
so that the store now occupies -FOUR
| STORE rooms, has added ladies shoe
department and ladies ready made suit
and dress department.
Only little more than year ago the
capital stock of the company was in
creased 10 $4,000, the amount being
fully paid in. During the past year the
business has shown a profit of rs per
cent on this capital stock.
That's going some in Palatka.
But modern methods OF doing business
and public confidence is the secret of
this success.
When seen by the News yesterday and
ask ed concerning the success OF his
business during the fall and winter sea-
son Just drawing to a close, Mr. E. M.
Earnest, president and general manager
OF the company said:
"We have had most successful buSi-
ness this winter, but what we have done
isn't what is troubling us just now. We
have been advancing ever since the
business opened four years ago and we
have got TO keep it up.
"In order to do this we must have
more room. With additional room the
problem of additional business is solved
81 have had talk with the MeSsrS
Merryday and they are considering the
plan of adding story 10 this building
This arranged for we would then in
crease our capital stock from $40, 600 tc
$50, 900, and continue the advance.
81 have only recently had two or three
parties suggest this plan of advancement
and offer to take part of the additional
stock in sums OF from 50 900 to So, 500, but
a different plan has occurred TO me. Ii
is TO issue 100 shares of stock of 500
each and dispose of it 10 as many people
who would appreciate the investment.
emphasize the peoples store" idea,
but would be more helpful financially in
that il would distribute the desire for
the stores success among the people.
This stock, already paying a splendid
divident, ought to sell at good pre-.
MUM, but by letting il go at par, would
hasten> its sale without arguing its ad'
vantage as an investment.
"We have clean, reliable and Steadi'
ly advancing business, and by keeping
unimpaired our reputation for fair deal
ing, the possibilities for the future are
certainly bright
"But we must advance with the
growth of the city of Palatka and Put.
nam county Our trade is increasing
from all parts of the county. The de-
mand that the business facilities be in
creased is imperative. The small stock
plan seems feasible TO us, but we will
decide on ii in a few days. Only one
thing is Sure-the Earnest Co. will in
crease its capital, and be in position TO
meet the increased demands OF the peo-
pie for reliable women's department

N. P. BRYAN WINS
SEkATORSHIP.
Vote is Close and Candidates
Claims are Conflicting.

Nathan P. Bryan of Jacksonville has
quite evidantly won the U. S. Senator
ship.
The vote of last Tuesday was some
heavier than in the first primary, and
fully as slow about coming in. The
fact that the vote is close also has caused
the headquarters OF the candidates to
send out conflicting reports.
1t may take the official count TO de-
termine.
AT last report both the Bryan and
Blount headquarters were claiming the
election.
But the unprejudiced view seems TO
be that Bryan is several hundred in the
lead and that the counties TO be heard
from will swell his majority little.
Putnam county with all precincts but
Bannerville officially canvasSed, gives
w. A. Blount majority OF 81 votes.
