Interesting Motion Pictures.

lures at the Kalbfeld Grand tonight
and the crowd promises to be un-
usually large. The pictures are a
reverent life story of Jesus of Naza-

thentlc locations traversed by the
Master in Palestine and Egypt. The
picture consists of five reels and all
told covers 5000 feet.
Rev. DR.. Chas. H. Parkhurst and
other noted clergymen have strongly
endorsed the pictures. DR.. Parkhurst
says:

Christian Culture Course.

The next entertainment in the
Christian Culture Lyceum course I'M
der the auspices of the Ladies' Aid
Society of the Methodist church will
occur tonight at the Howell theatre
and promises to be most attractive.
The entertainers will be the Row
lands-Orie Rowland, lecturer, and
Pearl Rowland, cartoonist. The lat
ter is said to be one of the cleverest
in her profession in the. country and
her cartoons follow and illustrate the
lecture of Orie Rowland. The sub
ject of the lecture and cartoon will
be Blowing Bubbles" and in a re-
cent run of 1873 nights, the ROwlands
in this lecture pulled more door re-
ceipts than the average of nine mus
icals which they followed. One of
the big bureau managers, in writing
of Pearl Rowland, says: 81 have
seen all the cartoonistsI and their
work. Pearl Rowland is the best
cartOonist | have ever seen. She is
more than a cartoonist-she is an
artist"

Post of T. p. A. Formed Here.

The Messrs. Ledbetter, proprietors
of the Putnam House, have this week
succeeded in forming a Post of the
Travellers Protective Association in
Palatka, with a charter membership
of II. The organization will be
known as Post D of the Florida d.
vision, and is the fourth post in the
State, Post A being in Jacksonville,
Post B in Tampa, and Post C in
Pensacola.
The T. p A. is a fraternal order
made up of white male persons Of
good character engaged as travelling
statesmen, or as buyers or sellers for
wholesale or commission houses or
manufacturers, or any wholesale deal
err, importer, commission merchant
or manufacturer in active business.
1t was due to the untiring efforts
of the T. ?. A. that we have inter
changeable mileage on railroads and
other advantages in travel. 1t is or
ganized in 80 states. The national
association of the T. P. A. is nov a.
work in an effort to get legislation
which will compel railroads to accept
mileage on trains instead of having
to exchange same at the ticket Office
Palatka is headquarters for many
travelling men and is getting to be
commercial and manufacturing center
of sufficient Importance to warrant it
to rank along with the leading cities
of the state, hence the activity of the
Ledbetter Bros, in securing for this
city a post of the I. p. A.

WHO'LL BE MAYOR
A vExED QUESTION
Among PaIatka Politicians
indications all Point TO
A. USina.

The city democratic convention fer
the purpose of naming candidate for
mayor will be held two weeks from tc-
night.
The ward primaries for the purpose OF
nominating aldermen and selecting dele
gates 10 the city convention from the
various wards will be held on the Mon
day proceeding the city convention.
Palatka still maintains the caucus and
convention system OF nominations. II
does not nominate by direct primary;
the professional politician still has power
10 dominate; he uses his power.
DR.. Warren who has made most ex.
cellent mayor during the past year will
not be candidate for denomination,
though he has been urged 10 declare
himself one by large following of his
friends. The doctor might take it il
he was nominated, but he is in no sense
a candidate; in fact he has said that he
didn't want it and he said ii in way
that sounded as if he meant it,
w. A. Hicks, alderman from the
Third ward, has also been mentioned.
The News saw Mr.. Hicks and asked
him; he didn't know whether he would
be or not. "Who do you hear most
about as a candidate" asked Mr.. Hicks
OF The News. TONY Usina," replied
the scribe. "Well, Pm for Tony"
continued Mr.. Hicks, "and you can say
that am not candidate"
And that is the fact; the name most
generally mentioned for the mayoralty
nomination is Aid. A. Usina. His name
carries most enthusiasm and the enthusi
aSm is confined 10 no one class. The
pugnacious alderman from the Fourth
ward, the man who insists on the
council doing things legally if at all; the
man who isn't afraid to kick when
things are not TO his taste; he is the man
who, in the opinion of The News can
have the nomination if he can be pre-
vailed upon 10 take it. And he would
make good one; he would be onto his
job.

THE EARNEST CO.


The following society item taken
from a recent number of the Atlanta
Journal will have an interest for the
ladies of Palatka where the honor
guest mentioned was long a social
favorite:
Mrs. Howard L. Bridges and Mrs.
Abel entertained with bridge lunch
con at Mrs. Bridges home in College
Park Thursday in honor of Mrs Dana
Walden, Of Palatka, Fla.
The house was prettily decorated
for the occasion with violets and
trailing ferns.
Each guest received as souvenir a
pretty card painted by Mrs. Bridges,
and the guest of honor was given a
hand-embrodered towel.
Mrs. R. R. Bradley won the first
prize, a hand-embrodered center
piece, and the consolation, a hand
painted calendar, was won by Mrs.

Mr.. Paul Gilmore, one of America
foremost actor-managers, producers
and stage directors, will appear at
the Howell Theatre tomorrow (Sat-
urday) night in H. S. Sheldon's pow
erful drama, "The Havoc"
"The Havoc" according to the In
dependent Magazine, touches the high
water mark of American drama. Il
is, said Munsey's Magazine last year,
an exceptionally fine play, superbly
acted. 1t is a real work of art, said
the New York Times. Mr.. Gilmore
has done nothing more powerful or
artistic in his whole career than this
portrait of an intense, almost satur-
nine man, who is plunged into the
depths, but has the intelligence to
await the time for vengeance more
powerful than one of his own imme-
date execution.
The production is made with Mr..
Gilmore's well known genius for de-
tails and is such an exact reproduc-
ton from life that an audience feels
as though it were peering into the
living rooms of a genius house.

The Goose Girl.

The most satisfying plays produced
in recent years are those that have
been made from popular novels. One
becomes interested in reading a hook,
and the characters at times seem as
living, breathing friends. 1t is,
therefore, easy to understand how, al
ter having followed the adventures Of
q popular hero or heroine of fiction,
and having been taken into the con-
tidence of these persons, there should
be desire to meet them face to face.
In renewing the acquaintance of old
friends made over from cold type into
flesh and blood, there is a feeling OF
satisfaction not easily described 1t
is, perhaEs, not too much to say that
Harold McGrath's famous novel, "The
Goose Girl" has had as many, if not
more readers than any work of fiction
recently published The dramatiza-
ton, by George d. Baker, has met
with approval is evidenced from the
large and appreciative audiences who
nightly enjoy its presentation. 1.-THE
Goose Girl with a magnificent pro-
ductiOn and exceptional cast will be
