BRICK | ROADS. (. 4 | MEETING I / [:.1''l1IIj'
HELD ON WEDNESDAY
At Crescent City-Plans
Making for a Bonding
Election.

Secretary Elliott went to Crescent
City on Wednesday to attend an in
formal meeting called by President
Tillinghast of the Crescent City board
Of trade for the purpose of discussing
the practicability of calling together
the ;eople of the Frditland peninsula
within the next few weeks for the
purpose of arranging for a special
bonding election to secure money to
build brick highway from Dunn's
creek to the Volusia county line, the
same to form link in the great Cen
trail Florida Highway recently routed
through that section from Palatka
south.
The meeting was merely an infor-
NAL one called at the Tillinghast home,
and some 20 of the leading citizens
of Crescent City were present. The
feeling was unanimously in favor of
the road. Secretary Elliott was in
vited to address the gathering and he
told what had been accomplished al
ready by the different counties along
the proposed highway, and the enthu-
siasm with which the work was being
done.
Before the meeting adjourned it was
decided that President Tillinghast
should call a meeting of the Crescent
City board, at which delegations
should be invited to be present from
all the precincts on the peninsula dis
tricts Of the county, and at which
meeting the preliminary steps might
be taken for creating a special tax
road district for the district with the
purpose of calling bonding election
for the proposed road.
Secretary Elliott states that he was
greatly pleased with Crescent City.
"But the trip there" said he, "was
greatly marred by the piece of low
road this side of Pomona, where ones
car goes through water, saw dust and
mud up to the axels, and where many
a car gets stalled. 1t was my first
trip over this piece of road, and re-
fused to risk it coming back until r.
Z. Middleton generously proposed to
come with me and show me a way
through"
Mr.. Elliott says bunch of convicts
are now at work in that section under
direction of the county commissioners.
and that they should Immediately be
put to woK on that one bad piece of
road.

tidently predicted that had he sought
the nomination he would have won,
But he refused and since then has de-
voted his full time to his own business
interests. During his terms in the
State senate his opposition to a meas
ure generally meant its defeat. He
was conservatively constructive in his
legislative work, and his efforts were
responsible for many of the wisest
! laws on our statute books. Among
his more recent accomplishments in
this line were the bills creating the
State Geological Survey and the Pure
Feod law. At the last national DEM
ocratic convention DR.. Grill headed
the Florida delegation.
DR.. Grill was twice married. His
first wife whom he married in April,
1866, died in April, 1875, leaving him
one daughter, the wife of William H.
Markham of Tallahassee. He was
married again in this city in 1877, his
second wife surviving, together with
two daughters, Mrs. John H. Ran
dolph, Jr., of Savannah Ga, and Mrs.
Chas. P. Cooper of Jacksonville, both
of whom are at present with their
mother at the stricken home in Pa
latka Heights.
If the editor of The News might
presume to judge of the inward life
of this once strong, noble character
whom all Palatka and Putnam county
mourns today, he would saw in all SER
iousness that it was highly. broadly
Christian. "He lived in a house bv
the side of the road and was a friend
to man." and hundreds of examples
of his genuine, practical friendship
are here TODAY to make good this
statement. His life was clean and his
acts helpful. And so he did not fear
this sleep of death; he believed in
God, the Almighty and Everlasting
Father: he had heard His voice and
had felt His presence; he "knew that
through the celestial transom God
kept watch over his children, and
that the love and power of the Hea-
venlv Father would not fail him when
the hour of death came" He had said
in substance by his many acts. that
If | can leave behind me- here and
there
A friend or two to say when am
gone
That had helped to make their path
wavs fair,
Had brought them smiles when they
were bowed with care.
The riches of this world I'll carry on.
If only three or four shall pause to saw
When | have passed beyond this
earthly sphere,
That | brought gladness to them on a
day
When bitterness was theirs, I'll take
away
More riches than billionaire leaves
here.

Resolutions,

Messrs. Rowton and Waldron, the
committee appointed by the County
Commissioners to draft resolutions on
the death of Hon. S. ]. Kennerly will
report as follows:
Whereas, as the Ruler of the Uni
verse, in his infinite wisdom, has call
ed Hon. S. J. Kennerly to the great
beyond, we, the board of county COM
missloners of Putnam county, beg
leave to record the following brief
acknowledgment of his worth:
That the deceased, as member of
this board from 1893 to 1899, and
chairman for the last thfee years of
his term, not only gave faithful SER
vice, but manifested remarkable bust
ness judgment in his administration
OF county affairs.
He held the Office of county treas
urer for eight years and gave credita-
BILE service in that position.
AS citizen, he was broad minded,
far seeing and progressive.
Personally, he was charitable to a
fault, and like the perfume of the
flowers at his home, his heart went out
even to the passing stranger.
Therefore, Be 1t Resolved: That we
deplore the death of this good citizen
and do hereby extend to the family
and friends our deepest sympathy in
their bereavement, and that these res
olutions, in token of our regard, be
spread upon the minutes of the board
of said county commissioners.

She Knows What She Wants

The we'll inf ormed housekeeper
insists upon using only baking
powder whic is made Of cream Of
tartar. She might read in an
advert isement or be told that alum
and lime phosphate, which are
used as inferior substitutes in
cheap baking powders, we're all
right in the quantiti used but
she would not buy them or permit
them to ent ter her kitchen. Why?
Because she knows that cream
Of tartar has always been accepted
as the most wholesome agent, with
soda, for raising cake and bis
cult, and she wants baking
powder made Of cream Of tartar,
like Royal.
This conclusio ion is the result
Of unconscious absorpt ion, either
her own or her mothers, Of the
opinions Of the highest authori-
ties on hygiene and home cooking.
The prudent ilousekeeper, when
she uses baking powder, reads the
names Of the ingredients printed
Ion the label. She knows what she
wants.
