PASSE-A-GRILLE
HOTEL BURNS FOR
THE FOURTH time.
Incendiaries Believed to
Have Caused the
Fires

st. Petersburg, Sept. 26.-tire
which was discovered at $3.50 O'Clock
this morning destroyed the Pacc-a-
Grille hotel on the island adjacent to
St. Petersburg. The loss is estimated
lat $150OO0, with S68,0O0 in insur-
ance.
At the time of the fire the hotel

caretaker who escaped from the
flames only with his trunk. Nothing
else was saved from the building,
which was furnished at the time.
It was the thidr disastrous fire at

pected and citizens believe that a fire
bug is operating on the island. The
hotel had 65 rooms and was four sto-
ries in height.

SPLENDID PROGRAM FOR

Tonight's concert of the Palatka
band will continue the practice Of
holding the concerts on Thursday
night, and Director Shearouse an
nounces that this will be the rule un-
til November, when the shift viii be
to Sunday afternoons.
In response to a general appeal, it
said, the program next Thursday
night will be nothing but jazz of the
1922 variety. The request for this
program establishes that Palatka is
eyi3encing a greater interest in the
band probably explained by the porg,
ress of the Juniors, and Mr.. Shea
rouse anticipates sufficient later in.
sistence for an entire classical pro
gram, he says. Palatka can have
what it asks for, is the whole organ,
ization's watchword, it is claimed.
An offer to build a grandstanC
without cost to the band is a recent
development. Members of the ban(
seem to think that with the ever in

the comforts of the people. Nor,

Barlow, Sept. 27-Bartow has just
ompleted its first six months of ex-
istence unGer the commission mana
ger form Of government and, accord
ing to- a report Of operations, made
by Auditor z. S. Jackson, to City
Manager Anton Schneider, the ex-
pertinent has been to the great fnan-
cial advantage of the tax payers Of
the community and the city is loan
irg money rather than mortgaging
its future to meet current expenses.
"Not only have revenues from Il
censes, fines, interest on funds loan
ed On approved securities and other
sources as differentiated from rev.
enues derived from taxation, as that
term is generally interpreted, great
watchfulness, but the cost of admin
istretion has been greatly lessened." !"
said Mr.. Jackson, in his report.
Per Capita Cost Reduced
"The gross cost of government for
the year ending March 7, 1922, not in
Guiding the cost of the light and wa
ter plants was $7.15 per capita, ac-
cording to the audit made Y a firm
of certified public accountants. The
gross cost of city administration
since the commission manager form
was established, March 7, last ha;
been $3.07 per capita or at the rate
of $6.14 for the year or a saving
of $1.01 per capita. At the same tirne
the collections of fines, licenses, etc
have increased from $1.5O per cap.
ita to S1.81 per capita
Brought down to per capita cost;
against taxation, it may be stated
that for the year ending March 7
last, the per capita cost of city gov,
ernment borne by taxation was S5.6;
as against $4.32 under the present
form of administration, a reduction
in favor of the tax payers of S1.3:
per capita. Translated sinto dollar:
and cents that statement means
saving of $5,953.20 to the city as {
whole.
at should be stated, III this con

of $4,33 we have included a number
