SPLIT on Federal Pie.

A special to a New Orleans morning
paper says that Vardaman and Will
Jams, senators from Mississippi, have
failed to agree on the distribution of
federal patronage.
Federal appointments in Mississippi
are not liable to be made for som
time and they may not be made during
this session at all. because of the dis
agreement between Senators Varda-
man and Williams over division Of pat
ronage in patronage in the state. The
two senators are OF totally different
Mississippi factions, and while both are
democrats, are as wide apart as the
poles in policies and supporters.
Just what the cause of the mixup is
neither of the senators will say. They
would not discuss the matter in any
way. 1t was acknowledged by MI.
Williams, however, that there is a dis
been made yet concerning division of
the spoils.
MIR. Vardaman preserves a grim ST.
lence, but it is known that he intends to
get what he believes is due him in the
federal appointments in the state or
prevent Mr.. Williams from making any
appointments if o n are made in the
state for the next ten years.
President Wilson so far has refused
to take a hand in the fight. and it is
reported he will not send to the senate
any Mississippi nominations except
postmasters who are recommended by
the representatives, until the two sen
ators reach an agreement.
The principal convention at present
between the senators is the recon-
mendation of Mr.. Williams for United
States district attorney fer northern
Mississippi and U. S marshol for the
southern district. Mr.. Williams has
recommended Ex-Representative w. S.
Hill Of Greenwood for the attorney
ship and George l.. Donald of Magee
for marshal. These recommendations
are said to have been made without
Mr.. Vardaman's consent, and there is
where the wal started. Vardaman has
made no recommendation yet. He is
merely standing pat and holding up the
Williams recommendations.

To Grenadians: The Civic League of
our beautiful, growing little city de-
sires to appeal to property owners and
to everyone occupying a home, and to
every citizen. to make the year 1918
memorable for the cleanliness and the
care shown in caring for the premises
along this line. but it will not do to
rest on past achievements and sue
cesses. Let the weeds and grass be
cut, and kept cut, in yards and sur
roundings. This is imperative if we
are to escape fevers and other dis
eases common to this section in the
summer season. None of us want to
be sick. We know what it means to
keep vigil wei loved one and friends
during serious illness, hence we should
act the part of wise ones and do all in
our power to remove every cause of
sickness. The tin u n and the gar
bage should be placed in boxes where
the city cart will take it away when
notified.
Not only do we plead that our town
be made cleaner and more sanitary
than ever before, but it should be made
prettier. Grenada is universally COM
mended, but let US still further beau
tify. This is the time for the painters
brush and for lime and whitewash.
The Civic League is seriously in ear
nest in this appeal and asks the aid,
cooperation, of one and all. Clean up!
Let US see that every nook and corner
of the town is sanitary.
Civic League.

President.

A Notable Feature.

All of our readers are more or less
interested in the great Confederate re-
union which is to be held at Chatta-
nooga May 1928. The ranks of the
veterans are fast thinning out, and
each year the interest in their gather
ings becomes more intense. The site
for this years reunion is particularly
appropriate, as it was the scene of
of the most noted battles of the
Civil War. Realizing the Importance
of this event, the Sentinel will publish
a highly interesting illustrated article
on these same b~attlefields, written by
James Polk Smart, historian of the
Chattanooga hickamauga National
Park Commission.

Board Of Trade Expresses
Common Feeling Of
Citizens.

The late Joseph r. Parrott, president
of the f. f. c. Railway was always the
friend of Palatka. To many il is not
generally known that he was for short
time resident of this city. That was
in the days when he acted as receiver
for the old Florida Southern r. X. and
before his association with Mr.. Flagler.
His well-known friendship for, and in
tereSt in this city, as well as his larger
activities in behalf of Florida, make the
following resolutions, passed by the
board of trade last Monday night,
peculiarly appropriate:
The resolutions were presented by
Col. II. NJ. de Montmollin:
In the death OF President Joseph r.
Parrolt OF the Florida East Coast Rail
way, and former resident of this city,
following so soon that of Mr.. Flagler,
to whom he had been strong right
arm, our city, Florida, and the entire
South have lost one of its most valuable
men. By his unliring energy and abili-
ty, the material development of the
State was given remarkable impetus, to
which was combined earnest work in
providing the moral, educational and
general welfare of the people,
BE- 1t resolved by the Palatka Board
of Trade, which represents the feelings
OF the entire city, that deep regret is ex-
pressed al The great loss sustained by his
passing from the activities of life, and
that profound sympathy be extended 10
his family, in their irreparable loss; and
be ii further resolved,
That this resolution be made part of
the minutes of the board and copies
furnished 10 the press and to Mrs.
Parrott.

HOLSTERS Cattle Dipping.

Tomorrow Saturday Oct 25j the
cattle owners of HolliSter, some ten
miles west of Palatlla, will indulge in
cattle dipping. This is the system
urged by the Florida Experiment Sta
ton as we'll as the Agricultural Depart
ment of the general government for
Kidding cattle of the tick.
Various State and Government experts
will be present at the HolIiSter dipping
tomorrow and will deliver addresses.
1t is by this dipping process that Florida
Stock men are going 10 get rid of the
tick pest. A community vat has been
built, and at this meeting some 200 or
more cattle will be dipped. 1t is i'm
portant that cattle owners from all parts
OF the county should sbe present. The
system has passed the stage of expert
ment. 1t is a well-known and positive
cure for the tick. To get rid of the
tick means money in the pockets of
Florida stock men. 1t means better,
tatter stock and hides that will be en-
HANGED in value fully 100 per cent
AT this meeting steps will be taken to
organize Live Stock Improvement AS
Sociation for Putnam county. Twelve
Florida counties have already organized.

PRETTY PALATKA
GIRL LEAVES HOME
When Admonished for Some
TrifIinq Fault.
Traced to Tampa Where Diligent
Search is Made Without Result.

Ina, the 14-year old daughter of Capt.
and Mrs. John d Pigue of this city, left
home in pet on Thursday afternoon of
last week and though diligent search
has been made by the family and the
police, she has not been located.
The young lady, who is quite slight
and pretty, had been admoniShed by her
mother for some act, and in pet de-
clared that she would leave home and
make her own way in the world. AT
the time this was regarded as an idle
threat.
She had some money of her own
some S13 so. 1t has since been learned
that she spent at least 81 of this amount
before leaving Palatka. She was traced
to the Union Depot, where il was
learned that Young lady answering her
description had bought'a ticket for Tam
pa. The conductor of the train remcm-
bered the girl and remembered that she
went through 10 Tampa, but after her
arrival there nothing can be learned,
although the police were notified and
have made diigcnt search. Capt
Pigue went 10 Tampa TO take up the
search, as also did the elder sister, Miss
Jennie Pigue. The family is greatly
worried, as are also their large circle of
friends in the county,
Before coming 10 Palatka this sum
mer the Pigue family had lived several
years in Crescent City. Capt. Pigue
will be remembered as a candidate for
sheriff last year. He is now engineer
on river steamer. Capt. and Mrs.
Pigue have large and interesting fami
ly of children, and Miss Ina, the girl
who has SO thoroughly disappeared, is
young lady of most prepoSSesSing ap.
pearance. She weighs about 100
pounds, is about five feet in height, has
light complexion and hair and hazel
eyes. The fact that the police have
been unable TO locate her after weeks
search has given rise to all sorts of fears
for her safety.
Her sister, Miss Jennie, is still con-
Quoting the search in Tampa.

A PALATKA LADY
is HONOR GUEST
At Centennial of wellington, S.
C., Presbyterian Church.

Mrs. NJ. +. Benet returned on Friday
last from a delightful visit with her Sis
ter, Mrs. f. w. GilliS, in ASheville, n.
G. Mrs. ellis, it will be remembered
by all old PalatkanS, is the widow of
the late Judge Calvin ellis, former
leading attorney of this city.
1t was while on this visit that Mrs.
Benet attended the centennial of the
Wellington, S. c., Presbyterian church
and old Waddell academy, which was
held in connection with the fall meet
ing of the South Carolina PreSbytery,
which convened in the old Wellington
church on Tuesday, the 9TH inst.
Wednesday was set apart for the cele
bralion of the centennial. Rev. H. c.
Fennell of LoundesviIle, presided, and
told how the HuguenotS were persecut-
ed and finally driven out of France TO
find free home in America, where
they could worship God according TO
The dictates of their ConScienceS. From
the AShcvillc Citizen of the 10th inst.
is taken the following notice of the
centennial.
"Altcr the centennial addresses were
made the PreSbytery then took recess
10 partake of an old d-time southern bar
bcCue, which was served in Splendor to
the offspring of those honorable old
Huguenots who thought more of God
and their religion than their lives.
REV Moses Waddell, D. D., eStab-
lished this church in the year 1913. DR..
Waddell here conducted the greatest
school in the United States at that time.
His students were such ilIustrious states
men as John c. Calhoun, George Nc
Duiic, James L. Pettigrew and others
who helped make the history of our
country; The house that was built and
occupied by DR.. WaddeIl before his
removal 10 Athens, Ga, is still stand
ing and in good repair. In front OF the
church is large graveyard, where vet
Grams of the war of 1872 and the MeXi-
can and Civil wars are buried.
The church is about a mile from the
c. & w. c. Railway and two miles
from the Savannah river, near where
the old town of Vienna once stood,
which consisted of about 25 stores.
There was also a French settlement at
Newbordcaux. DR.. Waddell got the
people together and settled Wellington.
Their willingness gave it its name.

Waddell, whose name will be handed
down TO poScrity as the foremost edu-

tury this church has not been without a
pastor.
Mrs z. w. ellis and her daughter,
Miss Waddell ellis, of Asheville, n.
c., were present at the celebration.
Mrs. ellis is a granddaughter of DR..
Waddell. Mrs. NJ. F. Benet of Palatka,
Florida, also one of DR.. Waddell'S
granddaughters, was present, and many
other distinguished visitors, including
Senator Allen Johnson of Newberry,

John Temple Graves the distinguished
Georgia editor and orator was born in
the old Waddell home.
