that the sherbet was served in pref
ty violet holders, the individual cakes
being in violet.

FIRE AT LUMBER MILL CAUSES
EXCITEMENT; LITTLE DAMAGE

The local fire department was
called out about one o'clock yesterday
afternoon in answer to a call at the
Paul-Waymer Lumber company's
plant, where small shed used to
house their oil supplies was on fire.
The shed burned very rapidly and was
almost consumed when the alarm was
turned in. Water was used to prevent
the fire spreading to nearby buildings
and to put out several small fires in
the grass and bushes nearby. The
shed was practically empty and very
little damage was done.
This is the third alarm which the

JUDGE THOMPSON GOES TO
FORMER HOME IN BOSTON

Judge R. H. Thompson, who has
been in Palatka for two years, being
confined almost constantly by illness,
left yesterday for his home in Bos-
ton. He goes to meet his three sons
and their families, his grand children
coming home for the reunion. After
the reunion Judge Thompson will re-
turn to Palatka for the winter. His
brother, R. W. F. Thompson, and his
sister, Miss S. B. Thompson will re-
turn here with him.
One of Judge Thompson's sons,
Percy, is member of one of the
largest importing drug houses in New
England. Another son, Otto, is in
the wholesale beef and poultry bust
ness, and the third during several
winters has managed twenty lumber
camps in the north Maine woods, the
payment of wages and supplies for
each month totalling more than $780,
0Oo.
Judge Thompson delights to tell
of an occasion when he was caught
in snow storm in his native state,
when he was twenty-one years of
age. His sleigh was ploughing through
very deep snow, and at point on
the road far from any human habi-
tation when the wind formed huge
drifts he heard merry laughter and
the Jingle of sleigh bells just ahead.
There was but one thing to do, to dig
a sufficient space for two sleighs to
pass. This was done, and the young
couple in the other sleigh recognizing
him as justice OF the peace, asked
him to perform a marriage ceremony.
This was done, with another couple in
the sleigh as witnesses.
