At last he's only Rector.

It is very dusty now, and a good rain
would help out wonderfully.
Now the season of the year has ar
rived when the dainty belle bedecks her
self with orange blossoms, as she dreams
over the gorgeous bonnet she intends to
wear on Easter Sunday.
Mr. Henis Petermann has opened a
branch store cut on the corner of Lemon
and Fourth streets, where he will keep a
stock of goods for the accommodation of
his customers out that way. See his
specials.
The Palatka Dramatic and Literary So
ciety are now rehearsing a new drama,
which will soon be presented to the pub
lic. The members are taking a lively
interest in the Society, and the drama
will be presented in the best manner.
The Street Committee have had sub
stantial new bridges put over the ditches
at the intersection of Lemon and Second
streets, and the ditches cleaned out and
put in good condition. The improvement
was needed, and will lie appreciated by
the public.
On Tuesday morning the infant bod
of Mr. and Mrs. B. I'. Calhoun died at
their residence in this city. The little
one was about five weeks old, and all
extend heartfelt sympathy to the
parents in their loss. The body was in
terred in West View Cemetery.
George Pierce was up before the
Mayor's Court yesterday morning on a
charge of fighting. He was assessed five
dollars and cost, which he paid. Geo.
Dickerson.a tramp.also put in an appear
ance, and one dollar and costs were en
tered up against him, which will be liqui
dated by work on the streets.
" The Chester Times speaks in these
words of our old friend, the City of Pa
latka her change of name and service:
The twin-screw steamer Eastern Ore
gon sailed from New Yoik for Bal
timore last Saturday, where she will load
with coal for San Francisco. The East
ern Oregon was built at Roach's ship
yard at Chester, Pa., under the name of
the City of Palatka, forf 115,000.
The ball under the auspices of the We
laka Base Ball Club at Welaka. Monday
night, was an elegant affair. About
two hundred ladies and gentlemen were
present from the different points on the
Peninsula, and contiguous points on the
river. The music was furnished by the
Pomona string band. The game of base
ball in the afternoon between the We
lakas and Kerr Citys resulted in a vic
tory for the Welakas. Score 14 to 21.
We anderstand tbat an important real
estate transaction was made in Palatka
yesterday. We could not get at the exact
particulars, but the deed given by Mr.
John Mullen, of Webb's Real Estate
Agency, to Mr. K. W. Perry, was a con
ditional one. This much we did learn,
however, of the conditions, and that is
that a building is to be erected on the
land at once, and that it ia to be occupied
in less time than tbiee months! Tbat
was all that could be pumped out of the
real estate man.
The Palatka Club continues to hold its
popularity with the yung men of the
city, and a number of them meet in the
handsomely furnished and cosy rooms
every evening for social enjoyment and
exercise iu the gymnasium. This is one
of the most successful and popular social
clubs ever organized in Florida, and we
are glad to have it in our town. The
young men would make themselves bet
ter known and at the same time furnish
a pleasant evening occasionally, if they
would invite the ladies to the club rooms
and allow them to indulge in a game of
billiards, pool, euchre and such pastimes.
We doutt not their fair friends would
appreciate such a privilege.
The question of the beet manner to
handle and get rid of the night soil of
the city, is agitating the B iard of Coun
cilmen and some of ouj citizens. There
is a scheme on foot now to have it car
ried off in buckets to the swamps, and
the Council will soon be asked to pass an
ordinance requiring all citizens to use
buckets or boxes suitable for handling,
when they will lie moved out at least
once a week. Until we can get asis
tern of sewerage this plan is probably
the most feasible one, and we hope it
may be inaugurated at once. The more
thickly popujated portions of the city is
badly in need of some such plan.
Mr. John Bixler is the proprietor of
quite a choice little menagerie, which he
has collected at Edwards' saloon. In the
collection he has a Florida bear, two ot
ters, four squirrels, a ccon and a dog,
and altogether they make a happy fam
ily. A great many visitors go around to
see the collection, and the coon and bear
prove to be prime favorites with all.
though the people take good care to keep
a proper distance letween themselves
and the bear. The ottets are very young
yet, but afe growing off finely and will
soon be running around the streets. The
coon is as mischievous as a monkey, and
the squirrels are as cross as the average
society belle when the ball season end-.
Ho: for Daj lona.
Excursionists over the White Road, on
the 27th inst., will have a delightful trip
and will get the first viev. of the Mos
quito Inlet Lighthouse given to the gen
eral public. For weeks materials for this
structure have been passing over the St.
Johns and Halifax Road, and these have
already summed up an aggregate of
60,000 pounds.
Florida cannot be properly "done
without seeing the Halifax section, and
there is much to repay a visit especially
to those tourists who have seen little of
our coasts. The steamer Armsmear will
leave Palatka at 8:30a. in., and a delight
ful day may be passed and this city
reached again by 7:00 p. m. Meantime,
the strange features of the wild woods
and quaking bogs, the rushing Tamoka,
the groves of Ormond and Daytona, the
beauties of Silver Beach, the grandeur of
the thundering breakers, and a view
from the new lighthouse with its stair
case of 339 steie. will remain an abiding
memory and new experience to conien
sat for the fatigue of tho rody. The
railroad will make close connection w ith
the steamer Clara at Daytona, and a trio
down the Halifax is not soon forgotten.
To those who prefer to remain for a more
leisurely survey of the East Coast we
can commend the hospitalities of our
neighbors as a further pleasure a-vaiting
them.
The New Opera House.
At last we are able to state authorita
tively that by next season we will have a
new Opera House. The company has
already been organized and all the stock
taken, and the building will be put up
during the coming summer. The com
pany is composed of Messrs. Cook Carle
ton, M. Loeb, E. T. Lane and G. Loper
Bailey, of Palatka, and M. IJ. Dingee,
of New York. The building will lie
conveniently located, and the hall will
be on the first floor, thus making it en
tirely safe and easy to get out in case of
fire or a stampede from any other cause.
It.will be constructed in the best man.
uer, and finished up in elegant style,
with a large stage and a roomy audi
torium. With our new Opera House, next sea
son we will have all the tirst-class com
panies coming South, and the snide
shams will give us a wide berth.
Alarm or Fire.
The fire alarm given between 10 and
11 o'clock yesterday morning was caused
by the house of a colored man named
Finlej catching fire. The house is lo
cated near the Florida Southern Railway
shops, and the fire was extinguished
with a few buckets of water.
The new fire alarm bell drew a large
crowd of citizens to the engine house in
a very short time, and the volunteer fire
department had their apparatus out in
good time. Repairs were being made
to the gas pipe of the engine house, and
the bridge in front of the doors was
torn up, but the timbers were put in
place in a jiffy and the trucks rolled out
ready for service had they been needed.
The fire did but little damage.
Having in our official capacity as
i members of the Plymouth Hospital
Committee been asked to test and prove
i the effectiveness of many different ar
; tides t J be used as disinfectants in sick
i rooms and as preventives of infectious
fevers, report tbat Darbys Prophylactic
Fluid has been thoroughly tested during
the recent Typhoid epidemic in this
place. It proved most efficacious in
staying the spread of fever.

Death or a Printer.
Wm. G. Jackson, foreman of theTerre
Haute (Ind.) Ejrprexs, died on Tuesday
night, at one of the De Weston cottages,
on Dodge street, of quick consumption.
He was very young being only twenty
one years of age but by his industrious
habits and strict attention to business
had for several years held a responsible
position on the above-named journal,
which is one of the leading papers of In
diana. He was of a very amiable dispo
sition, greatly loved by all. who knew
him, and bis death is a sad blow to his
many friends, but especially so to a
widowed mother and an only sister.
Mrs. Jackson, the mother of the le
ceased who for the past thtee months
has scarcely left the bedside of her only
boy is nearly prostrated with grief and
fatigue, but is deeply grateful for the
kind attention bestowed upon her by the
people of Palatka the ladies especially
and desires us to express her heartfelt
thanks.
The remains will lie interred in West
View Cemetery this morning.

Mr. John F. Ely and daughter, of De

trip, and were pleasant callers at The
News office yesterday. Mr. Ely is an
extensive look and job printer of De

three years, and Palatka has grown so
fast and the improvements have been so
vast that he hardly knew the place.
