At the annual meeting of the stock
holders of the State Bank of Palatka
on Wednesday afternoon, Hon. F. J.
Fearnside was unanimously reelected

President Fearnside had made his an
nual address to the stockholders pres

ly that as a business proposition the
bank had every reason to congratu-
late itself for it's business achieve
ments during the past year.
A dividend of eight per cent was
voted to stockholders, and other mat
ters of interest to the business was
attended to.
Other officials of the bank elected
were: first vice president, Chas. E.

Anthony; cashier, c. E. O'Conner; as
sistant cashier and bookkeeper, ]. H.
Millican. The board, of, directors
chosen were F. J. Fearnside, C. E.
Rowton, ]. H. Millican, DR.. E. W.
Warren, Fl. S. Cummings, W. W.
Tilghman and J. R. Anthony.
The State Bank of Palatka will soon
move into its new building, being
erected especially for it, at the corner

OF the most slightly edifices in Pa
latka.

M. s. Brown Returns.

M. S. Brown the clothier and fur
nisher who has been on a business
trip of over two weeks to Baltimore
returned home on Tuesday evening,
well pleased with his trip.
Mr.. Brown went to Baltimore more
especially at this time to leave orders
for the making of his new store fur
nishings. He had the plans of his
new store and from these he has or
dered the most modern fixtures and
furnishings. These consist largely
of glass, and mahogany.
He also purchased large part of
his spring stock and secured some
very exclusive makes.
"We will move out of here during
the remodeling of the store," said
Mr.. Brown, "but up to the present
time l cannot say Just where we will
make our temporary quarters. We
will move just as soon as the con-
tractor tells us he wants to begin
work. When the store is remodeled
and the new fixtures in place, yoI
can rest assured that the Brown store
will be something Palatkans can take
a pride in. 1t will be modern in ev-
cry detail"
Until such time as Mr.. Brown is
compelled to cacate for the contrac-
tor, his big Rebuilding Sale at ac-
tual cost prices will be continued in
every department. People are avail
ing themselves of these bargains
prices every day, and an immense
amount of goods has been disposed
of to Palatkans and people from the
country and at prices they will not
soon forget.

Earnest Burglar Caught.

The man who broke into the Earn
est Company store some nights ago
has been rounded up and placed be-
hind the bars, thanks to Chief Liv-
ingston. He is the same "yaller nig-
ger" who had his throat carved in a
Lemon street row a night or two lat
er. His name is Walter Dolby. A
search of his room revealed much of
the plInder, which Mr.. Earnest had
no difficulty in identifying.
Dolby will have his preliminary
hearing this morning before Justice
John E. Marshall As he has confess
ed there is little doubt but that he
has through ticket for the peniten-
tiary, a ticket that will be promptly
honored when the circuit court sits.

BISHOP CURLEY
ISSUES A WARNING
To Catholics Which Holds
Good in Protestant Cir
cles.
"The Poor We Have With us Always
The "Con." Man is Most Numerous
During the Tourist Season.

Bishop NJ, J. Curley of the Catho-
lie diocese of St. Augustine has is
sued an earnest warning against
clerical frauds. The warning is a
plain statement of fact, and one that
is not confined to any one church.
These clerical frauds are not so nu-
merous as those frauds who ply their
"con" games without resorting to
clerical garb, but the clerical fraud
has wider field, he can secure vic
tins much easier than the simple
worldling, who, by the way, has a de-
gree of honesty not found in the man
with whiskers and oily unction. Bish-
op Curley says.
"Frauds and impostors, men living
by their scheming' wits, setting up
nights to plan method of separating
honest men from hard earned money,
are to be found at all times. Florida
is visited by many of them during
the winter and since we are living in
an age of new discoveries we find one
special kind of fraud gradually TAX
ing active shape and promising to
loom large as class to be reckoned
with; mean the clerical fraud. To
be more specific, am now issuing a
warning to the public against certain
individuals who don the recognized
garb of Catholic clergymen and use it
for the purpose of getting money,
either as deserving objects of charity
or as doing some particular work for
which funds are needed. These scoun-
drels try to cloak their villainy by
wearing a Roman collar and dressing
in black and with sanctimonious air
introduce themselves as Father A. B.
or c. AS rule they keep away from
the Catholic clergy, becaIse their dis
covery would be easy, but they prey
on the unsuspecting, get all they can
and then take a sudden departure for
parts unknown. This contemplate
game has been played over and over
again in Florida and we have some
such with US at present.
"There is one of the class now do
ing two years in the Atlanta peni-
tentiary. He received thousands of
dollars in this state some years ago
posing now as Father Joseph and
again as Brother Thomas. He was
simply an impostor.
"Such individuals sho lid be watch
ed, particularly by hotel men, police
and unsuspecting Catholics. If JUS
tice had its sway and did legal tech
nicalities not prove an obstacle, all
such men would be chipping boxes in
the Florida pine woods. Look out for
frauds"

BOARD OF TRADE TO
ELECT NEW OFFICERS
Next Monday Night-It will
be the Twelfth Annual
Meeting.

The Palatka board of trade is to
hold its twelfth annual election of Of
ficers next Monday night, and a
pleasant hoIr is promised all mem
bers who turn out on this important
occasion in the life of Palatka's
most important commercial body.
So far there are three candidates
for president of the board, viz. E. M.
Earnest, DR.. E. W. Warren and H. M.
de Montmollin. Mr.. Earnest has
filled the Office during the past year
and has been an active, efficient off
Ger. Few members take more live
ly interest in the affairs of the board
than he, and the city has not more
liberal giver to causes for the gen.
eral good. This big merchant inher-
tied an appropriate name-he is
Earnest in season and out, actively
Earnest in his support of every cuase
for the welfare of Palatka and liberal
in his donations
DR.. Warren is also one of the city's
foremost citizens, an ex-mayor and
warm supporter of every movement
for the advancement of Palatka. Gen.
de Montmollin is also one of the
boards oldest members and worker
who never shirks.
For first vice president H. o. Hamm
only has been nominated. Others
may yet be. Mr.. Hamm has always
been a worker on the board and one
of its most intelligently active men,
bers. For the office of second vice
president, Henry Hutchinson Sr., is
the only nominee up to this time, and
as this Office is not one of great i'm
portance it is likely that the genial
county clerk will slip into it unop-
posed.
Two members of the board of gov
ernors are to be elected, and for
these members will make choice from
five nominees, as follows: w. E. Wat
ties, W. w. Tilghman, R. R. Brake
man, 7. W. Davis, and J. H. Millican.
The entertainment committee will
serve refreshments and good Palatka
made smokes during the evening and
everything will be done to make the
evening pass pleasantly. Additional
nominations can be made up to
O'Clock p. M, on Monday, the day of
the election.
The retiring officers of the board
will make their annual reports at this
meeting, but they are neither volum-
inous nor dry and no one should stay
away because of them.

Higgins Good Work.

T. R. Higgins of this city, the we'll
known editor of New Florida, is COM
piling an attractive little booklet
which will bear a title something like
"Who is Who in Palatka." Mr.. Hig-
gins is going on the principle that as
Palatka is growing city something
should be compiled which will let the
coming peoples know of the men who
have helped to make it, something
that will not let these men go down
to their graves "unwept, unhonored
and unsIng." He is going to sing
their praises while they are still in
the flesh, and leave his book as
reminder to those who come after that
in 1914 and 1915 there were some
men living in Palatka who were in the
habit Of doing the things calculated
to boost. 1t is needless to say that
Mr.. Higgins is meeting with fine sue
cess in his undertaking.

BOSTW|CK A COMING
POTATO SECTION.
To Rival the Hastings Dis
trict, Says John W.
GliSsOn.

John W. Glisson is enthusiastic
over the prospects of potato rgowing
at Bostwick. Mr.. Glisson lives at
Bostwick and is already engaged in
potato farming with the experience of
several years to fortify his Judgment
as to the future of the section. Mr..
Glisson was in the city last Tuesday
and called at the office of The News.
"Our section" said he, contains
thousands of the very best potato
lands in all Florida. Our people are
just beginning to realize that they
have been idling on lands that will
produce potatoes in abundance and at
a time when the market for them is
at its highest point. Several have
been growing spotatoes on small
scale for several years, but not till
within few years has any attempt
been made to grow them in quanti-
ties for the northern market. This
year we will plant around Bostwick
something like 80 to 100 acres.
"The land in our section is peculiar
ly adapted to potato and truck farm
ing. Much of it is underlaid with
clay, and flowing wells can be had
anywhere.
"The last legislature passed bill
creating the Bostwick Drainage dis
trict, and for the second year now
owners of land within this district
have been paying drainage tax.
There are about $4,000 acres in this
drainage district and when this years
tax is paid we will have about $4,-
900 in the fund and be ready to be-
gin drainage operations
"This district will open up to s1c-
cessful farming operations some of
the richest lands in all Florida. AL
ready number of strangers are NOV
ing in and acquiring land and are pre-
pairing it for farming operations.
From past experience and the enthu-
siasm of our people am safe in pre-
dieting that the Bostwick section, as
a potato district will rival in acreage
and productive ability the famous
Hastings section"
Mr.. Glisson is one of the best
known men in the county; he is one
man who doesn't enthuse until he has
the actual facts before him. Mr.
Glisson made a big success as a tur-
pentine operator, but is now engaged
in mercantile pursuits.
Asked as to the truth concerning
the reports that he would be candi-
date for sheriff in the coming
county primary, Mr.. Glisson said:
sit is little early for candidates
to be making announcements. but,
yes, | am fully determined on offering
myself as candidate for sheriff in
the next primary. / have made this
statement before and have received
much encouragement, and I see no
reason to keep the matter secret.
certainly will be in the race and shall
hope to win"

CoaIing Warshins AT Sea.

How the British vessels of war are
coaled, while sailing through heavy seas
at a rate of twelve miles an hour, without
hindering their activities in any way, is
told in the Manchester Guardian:
A collier, packed TO the hatches with
coal, gets into touch by wireless with a
battleship whose bunkers need 10 be re-
plenished. On sighting the vessel, the
supply ship manoeuvres until it is within
four hundred feet OF the battleship. The
collier then dispatches small boat that
carries two cables; one end OF each is at
tached to the masthead of the supply Of
the supply vessel. The lines pay out as
the boat advances, and when il reaches
the warship the sailors fasten the cables
10 the stern OF the ship on the port and
starboard sides.
The two ships, therefore, travel in a
straight line fastened together, while from
The mast Of The collier to the deck OF the
warship stretches transport cable ior
carrying coal bags Sacks OF coal that
weigh Ton are hoisted from The loot of
the GOLFERS mast 10 platform at its
head, below which there is net TO pro-
tect deck hands from falling pieces ofcoal.
BY means OF wheels that run on the Ca
bic, automatic winches force the load
along the sloping transport line at a rate
of three thousand feet minute. On
reaching the deck OF the baitleship the
load is automatically released, and the
transporter starts or its return journey.
BY means Of this apparatus sixty tons
OF coal can be carried every hour across
the gap OF water that separates the sup
ply ship from the battIeship. The great
advantage is that both vessels can move
at the rate OF twelve knots an hour while
the coaling goes on.
