Mrs. Henry Hutchinson, ST., over a
few days last week. Mrs. Cooke was
formerly Miss Hester Gilbert, niece
of the late Hon. Edwin Gilbert, many
years a prominent winter resident Of
Crescent City, and the man who be-
queathed a $4,000 endowment for
the Crescent City public school. Mr..

New York in their Chalmers motor.
Mrs. Edw. L. Mann is entertair
ing as her guest, Miss Nell Foster of

take in emitting from the contents of
the stone copy of the proposed
city charter. This, together with the
recent speeches for and against it by
Howell A. Davis and C. A. LeHardy
possibly constitutes the greatest, most
important bit of current history con.
nected with Palatka, and when the
great building shall crumble to dust
or be taken down to make way TO,
an even more imposing structure, the
people who dwell here could, by pc.
rusal of lnoSe speeches get a bette,
understanding of the questions, which
are today dividing this people, theil
progenitors, than it is possible to OBJ
tam from weeks file of the Poster
Serial or the drivelings of the editor
of this great advocate of true ant
tried democracy. If not too late, le
some one move for the preservation
of these speeches for the benefit O.
posterity. True, posteirty never die
anything for US, but that should no
prevent US from attempting some
thing for posterity.

no two human beings had ever stood before.
 Four years went by, society had forgotten the Mount Black burn expedition. And then, this June, Miss Keen set out once more for Alaska, taking her sis ter Florence along with her. A few weeks later society was sur prised. Miss Florence Keen had gone along to be a brides maid! In Mccarthy, Alaska, within sight of the pinnacle of Blackburn, where their middle aged romance began so strenu- ously, Dora Keen and George w. Handy were married.
