Saratoga Closes Dining Room

The Saratoga Hotel for the past ten
years owned and managed by Mrs. M.
B. Jacobson and during all that time
popular commercial headquarters for
Palatka, on Monday closed its dining
room 10 the public. The Saratoga will
continue only as rooming house, and
commercial men who come there can
still have use cf-ttihie big sample room
acceSs fnodations.
This decision was taken by Mr.. and
Mrs. Jacobson principally because of
their ill health. For several months
both OF them have felt themselves ply
sically unable TO conduct the business as
il should be run, and as neither of them
seem to recover strength, they thought
best TO give up the hard work incidental
to the conduct of the house. Hundreds
of travelling men who have made the
Saratoga headquarters during the past de-
cade will hear of this decision with re-
greet, and sympathize with Mr.. and Mrs.
Jacobson in their continued i'll health.
The Saratoga rooms and beds have
long had a reputation for comfort and
cleanliness, and this branch of the bust
ness will still be maintained at the same
high grade.

Candidate Williamson Here.

Hon. A. M. Williamson OF Jackson
vile, a former state senator, but best
knows as the vigorous editor of the
Floridian, spent Wednesday afternoon
and Thursday in Palatka in the interests
of his candidacy for Congressman-at at
Large. Mr.. Williamson is making a
gum-shoe campaign of the state, is visit
ing every county capitol and is seeing as
many voters personally as il is possible
for him TO see. That he is making
friends goes without saying. Men do
not talk long with Albert Williamson
without being attracted by his genialhy.
He is story teller and always has new
one on tap. Mr. Williamson has many
warm friends in this city and county and
they will be more or less active in his
behalf. He was the last man 10 enter
the race, but there are instances on rec
ord where this saying has come true

John w. Hagan's Death.

John w. Hagan former popular sher-
If of this county died at his home, cor.
ner of Main and Eleventh streets, shortly
after the noon hour last Saturday.
The News of last week told how Mr..
Hagan had suffered stroke of paralysis
on Wednesday of that week while dri.
wing in from Rice Creek with his little
boy; of his being found lying by the
side OF the road unconscious and help
less, and how he had been brought to
this city by Mr.. Maddox. His case APP
peared hopeless from the Start, though
Drs. Miller and Steen did all that was
possible for him. Mr.. Hagan never re.
covered consciousness.
His body was taken TO the old family
home OF the Hagan's, at Theresa, Brad
ford county, on Sunday for interment,
accompanied by many relatives.
Mr.. Hagan is survived by his wife and
two sons--Walter Hagan, aged %, and
little John w. Hagan, aged three years.
Besides there is his mother, four sisters
and eight brothers.
John w. Hagan had lived in Palatka
some 80 years. He was long a member
of the city police force, and rose TO the
position of chief. Then he was twice
elected sheriff of the county, and was
always a popular official. There are
hundreds of men in all parts OF the
county who will speak kind word 10
the memory of John w. Hagan, and
will sincerely regret his passing.

Has Bought Murray Market.

Alex B. Wattles long associated with
the Ackerman-Stewart Co. and more re-
Gently with VIM. Turnage, has purchased
the Thomas Murray meat market on
Lemon street. Mr.. WauleS will have
for meat cutter that expert in the work,
A. w. Neubeck, man who knows the
meat business thoroughly.
1t is Mr.. Wattles purpose TO have this
always popular market overhauled and
re-decorated, and when he gets in shape
the place will be known as "The White
hall Market" Everything will be per
fectly screened, and strict observance
will be made of all sanitary measures.
The News can see nothing ahead for
Mr.. Wattles but success. He is life
long resident OF the place and knows
all the people. And ii isn't so long ago
that his name counted for victory when
associated with the local base ball team.
There he was the idol of the fans. Mr..
WatlleS has every advantage OF acquain-
tanceShip and popularity, and best of all
a stand that has always been popular
with Palatka people.

Has Cleared Some Land Titles.

During the past year County Clerk
Hutchinson has done an enormous
amount of hard work in securing from
the State Comptroller the cancellation
OF many illegal tax sale certificates
against land properties in this county.
Many of these sales go back into the
years and were real clouds upon the
titles TO the properties described. By
the efforts of Mr.. Hutchinson a total of
1,O4S pieces of property have thus been
cleared within the past 10 months alone,
the largest number in any single month
being during last January, when 459
titles were thus cleared In September
of last year the total number OF illegal
certificates cancelled was 439. The 60
ing over and securing these cancelIa-
lions has called for an immense amount
of work in the clerks office, but the
value TO the property interests of the
people of the county is well-nigh in
calculable.
Clerk Hutchinson is still at work on
this line and says that before he quits he
will hold the cancellation on every
illegally sold piece of property in the
county,
