air sport, it nevertheless has proven an
interesting game.
The "gridiron" is the vast exhibition

OF regular football grounds. The horses
have their knees padded and, under the
direction of skillful riders, they propel \
monster ball from goal To goal, tbe

the sport, and ii is said that the horses
enter into the spirit of the fun with as
much gusto as do their riders. Certain

most pleasing exhibits.
There are other interesting featS Of

AN Old CITIZEN
and OFFICIAL.
Death Removes Samuel {.
TimmOns, Member of the
County Board.

Samuel Z. TimmonS of Grandin, since
1851 resident of Putnam county and at
the time of his death member of the
board of County Commissioners, died
at his home one mile from Grandin, al
nine O'Clock last Sunday night of drop
Scy of the heart. He was in his 18th
year.
Mr.. Timmons' funeral was held at
Parin church, Grandin, at p. m. on
Monday and was attended by large
congregation of friends and neighbors;
many coming from distance. The in
terment was in the church cemetery.
The service at the church and grave
were brief; simply prayer, hymn and
the commitment service, as the body
was lowered to the grave.
MIR. TimmonS was native of South
Carolina, but moved TO this state and
county in 1851, where, except for the
four years OF the war, he had continu
ouSly resided. He first enlisted in the
artillery service of the Confederacy, but
was afterwards transferred to the infan-
try. His service in the Confederate ar
my took him to the real seat of war and
he saw much service and life of hard
ship. AT the close of the war he re-
turned TO Putnam county, and during the
an active, honorable and prominent
citizen of the county; his activities be-
ing alike valuable 10 the church of his
choice and 10 the state. Mr.. Timmons
was particularly active in the years sue,
ceeding the war in helping 10 restore
the government of the county and state
TO the democratic party. He did his
full share in redeeming the government
from carpet-bag and negro domination.
He was for two terms county lax asses
sor, and two years ago he was elected
member OF the board of county com
missionerS from the Fourth district.
These are the only public offices filled
by him in his long life, though he was
frequently importuned TO become a can
didate.
Mr. Timmons was lifelong member
of the Baptist church and for the past IS
years has been a deacon in Parin
church, Grandin. For 20 years he was
the II oderator of the St. Johns River
Baptist Association, and also of the Put
nam Baptist Union. He was member
of Putnam Lodge, No. 81, F.. & A. NJ.
His wife died nearly two years ago.
He is survived by one son and daugh
ter, Mr.. J. NJ. TimmonS and Mrs. l.. c.
Watson, both of Grandin.
Sixty-one years of active, useful life in
one community is more than is vouch
safed TO most men. When il is the
privilege of such men as Samuel E. Tim
mons the community is the gamer and
its profit is computed in the higher
ideals of citizenship which are due TO
his influence.
Speaking OF his death DR.. Grill re-
marked: 'Mr. Timmons was good
man, good citizen; he was an honest
man. He stood for the right al all times
and his influence has been potent in this
county,"
His son and daughter have requested

The County Commissioners.

The board of county commissioners met
in regular session last Tuesday and there
was routine business sufficient to hold the
members to steady work for that and the
following day. The board also resolved
itself for few hours into a Florahome
Drainage Commission to attend to some
pressing matters of business.
The death of County Commissioner
Iimmons on Sunday made a vacant
chair and the members were saddened
though there was no official mention
made of the fact. The work of his dis
trict was referred to Commissioner Moody
until the appointment of successor.
The board will officially ask Gov. Gilchrist
to appoint D, P. Hancock for the unex-
pired term, he having been nominated
for the place in the recent primary.
A bill for the expense of the late spe-
cial election, amounting to $452 60 was
ordered sent to the Governor with request
that the county treasury be reimbursed.
c. W. Williams resigned as bridge ten
der of st. Johns river bridge on account
of i'll health and W. T. Knowles was ap-
pointed in his stead at salary of 500
per month.
Inc DOard passed resolution author
izing the placing of the name of l.. L.
Moody on the official ballot in the general
election next month, he being the regular
nominee of the Independent Socialist con-
vention held in June, for the office of
county commissioner for district 2.
A walk around the east side of the
court house was ordered made, the Pa
latka Woman's Club having agreed to
pay $50 toward the work. The Palatka
band was also given permission to erect
a band stand on the north east corner of
the grounds and at a point selected by
the Womans Club
The Drainage commissioners elected E.
B. Perry chairman in place of Mr.. Tim
mons, deceased. A petition making
recommendations as to the work at
FlOrahOme was presented and addresses
we're made on the petition by MessrS.
Tubbs, Mawman, Charles, Moody, and
Brakeman. Letters on the subject were
read from A. W. Tucker and the Com
missioner of Agriculture. The board
ordered warrants drawn for all official ex-
penses attending the collection of and
advertising for drainage tax.

FIFTY YEARS AGO
In the CIVIL WAR
FIoridians Were Lauding the
val0r of Gen. Patton
Anderson.

The present week is made memorable
10 Florida veterans of the Confederacy
in that it marks the 5Oih anniversary oil
an engagement on the field of battle in
which many of them had part, and
more particularly because one of the
great leaders in The conflict, Maj. Gen.
baton Anderson, was Floridian.
1t was just fifty years ago last Tues
day Oct. Sth, 1862 that the battle OF
Perrysyille, KY, was fought between the
Federal army of the Ohio under Gen.
Don Carlos Buell., and the Confederate
army under Gen. Braxton Bragg.
1t was a bloody engagement, the
most fiercely contested and largest con-
flict in point of numbers engaged and
lost that took place on Kentucky soil
during the war. Yet il was practically a
drawn battle, one in which the losses
on both sides were nearly equal, and
from the field of which the Confed-
crates fell back only because they in
tended to strike the Federal army at
another point. The Count of Paris
called il "a reverse for both sides"
1t was nearly O'Clock when the Con
federate five mile battle,line was form
ed. South of the town, on the left,
was Mai. Gen. Patton AnderSon's divis
ion; at its right, in front of the town
and forming the right center OF the
line, was Mai. Gen. Simon B. Buckner'S
division, and at the extreme right, north
of Perryville, was Gen. Benjamin F.
Cheatham's division. The Confederate
cavalry covered both ilanks of the
army.
AT that hour the Federal line had
taken shape. AT the center, opposed TO
Patton Anderson and Buckner, was
Gen. Gilbert'S corps, with Sheridan's
and Mitchell's divisions nearest the
Confederates, and Schoepf in reserve.
On Gilbert'S left, opposed 10 Cheat
ham, was Gen. McCook's corps, with
Gen. Lowell II. Rousseau's division al
the right continuing Sheridan's line,
Gen. James S. Jackson's division OF raw
IevieS at the center, and Col. Stark.
weather's brigade of RousseauS diviS-
ion al the extreme left. Gen. Critten.
den'S corps, came up on Gilbert'S right
late in the afternoon, but took no part
in the battle.
The conflict, which began at 2
o'clock and ended only at dark, was
fearful one. The Federals lost S45
killed, 2,S51 wounded and SIS captured
or missing, a total of 4,211. The Con.
federate loss was $40 killed, 1855
wounded and 251 captured or missing,
a total of 1896.
Gen. Buell., who was anxious TO re,
trieve the days setback, determided TO
assume the offensive. "We will moi
wait for them TO attack" he said, 81
will attack them at daybreak."
But when daybreak arrived it was
found that the bird had flown. Bragg
had fallen back 10 Harrodsburg, there
to join Kirby Smith and await the
coming of the Federals TO attack them
again. But the Federals came not.
What lends added interest in this
conflict TO Palatkans is the fact that the
aged widow OF Maj. Gen. Anderson is
living in this city and is the honored
president of Patton Anderson Chapter
of the United Daughters of the Con
fcderacy.

ORGANIZATION OF
BOYS CORN CLUB
In Putnam County Being Per-
feCted by Secretary
ROVSter.

The Secretary of the Palatka Board of
Trade is receiving great deal of en-
Couragement in his effort 10 organize a
Boys Corn Club in Putnam County.
The merchants of Palatka responded
literally to his request for prizes, and a
fine list will be offered.
Mr.. RoySter is now corresponding
with the school authorities aud teachers
of the county requesting their co-opera-
tion, and by corn planting time he hopes
TO have a number of boys enrolled.
The States of Mississippi, Alabama,
Georgia, North and South Carolina and
Tennessee have been operating Boys
Corn Clubs for several years, and in
1911, according 10 reports made by the
United States Department OF Agriculture
there was a membership of So, $40 boys
in the Boys Corn Clubs in the South;
and in many instances they produced
five times as much corn per acre as their
fathers have done on the same farms
since time immemorial
Parents should urge the boys and girls
10 join these Clubs and enter the con
tests, help them TO understand and FOL
low the Instructions. They should
have the proceeds Of their labor on the
demonstration plot, from the sale of the
produce. Turn the boys and girls away
from mere drudgcry on the farm by
arouSing an interest in little business
of their own. Give the boy an interest
in the home by allowing him TO have an
acre of corn that he can call his own.
Ii should be Jones & Son on the farm
as well as Jones & Son in any other
business.
Write TO Mr.. Royster who will gladly
give you all the needed information; it
is quite time now TO be selecting your
land and acquaint yourself with The
rules
