Business Change.

Edw. L. Mann of Mannville and who
operates a big farm at that place, has
purchased the interest of Mr. Reed in
the seed house of Reed & Hodge.
This means an enlargement of the
business-an expansion along lines
that are bound to advance the fame of
Palatka as a center for the seed in
dustry in Florida.
The new company will be known as
the Mann-Hodge Seed Co., and a num-
ber of changes are contemplated-wlll
be Immediately inaugurated. Mr..
Hodge will be in charge of the store,
in which a number of changes are to
be made, mostly in modern fittings.
Mr.. Mann will be in charge of the eX-
pertinent farm at Mannville, where
everything will be tried out and prov
ed. The seed business Of the new
firm will be managed on scientific
principles, and nothing will be recon-
mended to farmers in the way of seed
that has not been proved by the firm
to be adapted to Florida soil.

Mr.. Earnest Returns.

Ed. NJ. Earnest, head of Palatka's
big department store and one of the
city's most persistent boosters, re-
turned from New York on Tuesday in
ample time to cast his vote for the
brick road bond issue, a public i'm
provement which has been very close
to him since the idea was first ad-
vanced. In fact he was one of the
advancers. That he is pleased with
the outcome goes without saying.
Mr.. and Mrs. Earnest have been in
New York some weeks, a part of their
absence being enjoyed in the mountain
sections of that State on vacation. But
the major portion of their time was
spent in selecting goods for the va
rious departments of their big store.
These are beginning to arrive, and
some soon day there will be an an
nouncement of a fall opening of the
bis store which, as usual, will be
the dry goods event of the season.
The Earnest Company is Palatka
headquarters for styles in all women's
wear.

Sneak Thieves Abroad.

A sneak thief entered the Presby-
terian mansa last Sunday night and
was quietly gathering to himself all
the articles of value he could carry off,
when he was interrupted by the re-
turn of Rev. DR.. Afford and Mr.. and
Mrs. Robert O'Haver. They suspected
something of the kind as soon as they
entered the house, and began search.
They noted a number of articles as
missing, among them being suit of
clothes in the pockets of the trousers
of which reposed six dollars in cur
Irency. The search was about to be
abandoned when it occurred to DR.. AL
ford to look under the beds. AS he
looked under the bed in his own room
he saw a big, burly and ugly negro,
who when he saw he had been dis
covered made dash for liberty, car
rying everything he could of his loot.
! DR.. Afford was unarmed as so was
Mr.. O'Haver, and therefore could not
enforce their orders for the thief to
stop. But they telephoned Chief Liv-
ingston, who made a hurried search of
the city, but to no avail. So far the
thief has made good his escape.
There should be a small sized arse
nal in every Palatka home for use in
lust such emergencies as this.
