Eugene Field, Born Sept. =, 1850


Nearly everybody likes to collect
things. Some Of you collect picture
postal cards. other collect bands
from around cigars, still others col
lect monograms. coins, stamps and
famous pictures, But can you
imagine a grown-up man whose
hobby 1t was to collect toys? No,
he was not old man Santa Claus, no
indeed. this man was a different
sort OF person altogether. His name
was Eugene Field, and everyone of
you will say, "Oh, | know him! He
writes verses for children"
So he did. Eugene Field was the
children's poet, and his poems re-
fleet the boyishness of his spirit.
During his life he took a keen de-
light in collecting, as most boys do.

UNION MEN DID NOT
ACT At BEHEST OF
STEEL CORPORATION
(By Associated Press)

Washington, July 19.-Operators
in the Mingo, W. Va, coal field in
resisting effort to unionize their
workmen acted entirely on their own
accord and were in no way influenced
by the United States Steel Corpora
ton, Earnest L. Bailey, superinten-
dent of the Portsmouth Solvay Coke
Co. mine at Freeburn, KY, today in
formed the senate investigating COM
mittee. He emphatically denied when
question by Senator Kenyon, repub-
lican, Iowa, that there was any as
ISOLATION between the operators and
the steel corporation in policy toward
union labor.
Senator Kenyon read statement
purported to have been issued by W.
Jet Lauck, consulting economist for
for the United Mine Workers, in
which it was charged that the steel
corporation was the guiding hand
behind the effort to crush out the
mine worers organization. The state
ment said the steel corporation
through it's subsidiaries was the larg-
est producer of coal in West Virginia
employing more men than any oper-
ator in the region adjacent to Mingo
county and was planning in conjunc-
ton with the Norfolk & Western rail-
way to extend operations in the Mingo
field.
Mines supervised by Mr.. Bailey are
across the Tug river from Mingo
county. After Harry Olmstead, rep
resenting operators in the region had
testified that 81 persons were known
to have been killed during disorders
since themiddle of May 1920, Mr.. Bal
ley described attacks on men employ
ed at his mines who refused to strike.
Shots wer efred across the river a.
them and from nearby mountain
tops, the witness declared, adding
that to protect the men and their
families more than 100 high powered
rifles were supplied by the COM
pany.

.LEEsBURG OUT FIT
To TACKLE LOCAL
ATHLETES TODAY

A baseball feast Is in store for
the fans during the next three days
when the fast Leesburg team comes
for three games with the Pals. The
first game will be played this after
noon, beginning at Ais. Games will
be played at the same hour tomor-
row and Friday.
The Leesburg club was recognized
last year as about the fastest anna
tuer aggregation in the state. I'm
usually heavy hitters the club had,
also, some old baseball heads on it.
Frank Gillespie, formerly a star
pitcher in the South Atlantic league,
Archie Porter, of the Florida State
and Abney Medlin, a sensational in
fielder, Bill Buckles, high class
backstop and others make up a club
that will give trouble to any anna
tuer aggregation in the state and it
is certain that the Pals will have no
walkover in either game.
Play Saints Next Sunday
With the establishment of AMIGA
BILE relations with the saints the
Pals will play the first game in the
Ancient City next Sunday beginning
at Sis. This insures a tremendous
attendance, as the two clubs now dis
pute the state title, both having won
two games to date. Resumption of
play with the Saints will give great
stimulus to the game here as the
rivalry between the two cities is in
tense.
Next week, beginning Monday,
club from Eastman, Ca, said to be
one of the fastest in the Empire
State, is coming here for three
game series. This club has been de-
feating everything it met on the way
down and expects, they say, to take
three straights here.
On Thursday, July % the Saints
will come here for a game. There
is where the fun will be. Palatka
would rather beat the Saints than
any club in the world and when the
play starts the old stands will groan
with the populace packed in like sar-
dimes.

ROUTINE MATTERS
ENGAGE ATTENTION
!, OF C|TY'S S0L0Ns

Routine matters engaged the at
tentiaon of council last night, the prin-
cipal matter being a petition of the
Southern Utilities Co. for cintinu-
alton of the present two dollar rate
for gas. The rate fixed under fran
Ichise rights is SLIGO per thousand
cubic feet
Alderman Waits, chairman of the
Hight committee, made the recommen-
dation that the rate be fixed back ac-
cording to the franchise. Manager
Graham asked that council investi-
gate the matter, go through the COM
pany's books and see if it is posi-
BILE to produce gas at the franchise
price at present. He pointed out that
many thousands of dollars are being
expended in improvements, and that
other cities, i'll some instances, are
paying a higher rate than Palatka.
1t was finally decided to fill the va
cancies on the committee caused by
the absence of Alderman Can Horn
and Alderman Mentally by appoint
ing Aldermen Smith and Johnson to
act with Chairman Waits and bring
in report at the next meeting.
1t was ordered that steps be taken
to open Twelfth street from Reed
to Madison, beginning at the union
station.
The petition of residents on Ninth
street to have that thoroughfare paw
ed from Oak to Ninth was accepted
and the work ordered included in the
present paving program.
A petition of residents on Thir-
teenth to have that street paved |
twenty-five feet instead of sixteen
feet, as first ordered, from Lemon |
to Carr was granted and the work |
done in accordance with the |
petition.
Mr.. Seals, of the Florida Automo-
bile Association appeared before |
council and asked the aldermen to
otficiall request the county commits
sioners to improve the dirt roads of
the county. 1t was decided to join
with other organizations of the city
in asking the commissioners to make
more permanent improvements on
the roads.
An ordinance authorizing the is
suance of $4,000 worth of bonds
to take care of the improvements
which will be made in Palatka Heights
in accordance with the agreement
with residents in the newly acquired |
territory was put on its first, second |
and third readings and passed, and |
