Mr. Joe Dunn arrived home on Tues day, after several days vacation down at Duytona, and on the leach. Joe says the motMfiiitoeM did hint up in bad tthape. Mr. W. J. Winegar rt-turiid home on Tuesday, after an extended trip through the North and East. He reMrta the weather much warmer than in theltaliny South. Mrs. Sipprell leaves Palutka for Can ada, where she will remain for the sum mer. The Ifca-tor will remain to look after his interests in the Etonian Canal and Drainage Company. There will lie a sjcial meeting of the Putnam Alert Hose foiiiany at their rooms, over Kersting's drug store, to night. A full attendance is desired as business of imortaiice is to lie trans acted. There was an old darkey on the street to-day who walked up to a prominent citizen and inquired where he could find a "colored rest-u-ant." The Hlite citi xen told him he knew of no such place, bul toid him where he could "rest-your-uncle." The citizen will be buried to morrow. Mr. Will Speck left yesterday after noon for Asheville, N. C, where he ex pects to remain through the summer months, and possibly he may remain altogether. He .takes with him quite a collection of Fkida curiosities ; among them is a large alligator five feet long. The steamer Marion came down last evening, landing at the J., T. & K. W. dock, with a light freight nine lioxes of very tine tomatoes. Capt.

Letters are still coming in making in quiry relative to the double assessment of real estate in this county. Only vetv terday we saw a letter from New York on this subject. It is clear that the rec ords are not yet cleared of this careless and unfortunate business. The party v riting has paid his tax promtly each year and holds the Collector's receipt therefor. Yet his property was again ad vertised for s:de in The News last month. It is very annoying that tliese errors should lie continue I from year to year, w ithout an effort made to rectify them. The following item is clipped from the Boston Ileraltl, June 16. and may tie in teresting to a great many readers who are acquaintx-d with the gentlemen there in mentioned: "The trim little craft Anita, Capt. T. W. Lund, yesterday afternoon carried one of the jolliest iar ties that ever left a Boston wharf. The Anita was bound for Naliant, and the cotupuny she accommodated was com lajsed of experts in tle inner harbor ex cursiou traffic. She left India wharf at p. in., and aUnit one hundred per sons were on bonrd. A competent pilot was in cl large of the wheel, with Capt. Lund, and the run down the bay wm ac complished with celerity and quietness. A landing was maue at valiant lor thir ty minutes, ami an opportunity afforded for the excursionists to inspect the beau ties of this resort. As tlie boat was point ed for home, a splendid collation served, and there were calls for speeches from about every body that ate or drank. Capt. T. F. Weaver, the superintendent of the line, and Mr., B- O. Hammond, the business agent, were indefatigable in their effort to please the guest of the afternoon. They were entirely success ful. The Anita will begin its regular summer season to-day. Florid Yit4iat4. The stingiest people in the world live in Florida. There is man down there who is so stingy that he use a wart on the back of hi neck as a collar button. The East Tennessee Eagle iol,j: "There is man that lives within fire miles of where the Eagle feather it neat that gives his children a nickel each to go to bed without their sapper, and next morning makes them give their nickel back lie fore they can have any breakfast.- Street Railway. Tlie subject of a street railway for Pa latka, which lias been talked of, is again being agitated with vigor, and from facts we gather, it looks a though something is going to lie accomplished, and our citizens can hold up their Iteads ami claim as much for Palatka a some of the utlier cities, not far distant, do. Mr. Ilibbord, who is the firime mover in this enterprise, says lie ia meeting with encouragement from all source in the way of Hubscritiona, and if our Council will be more liberal than in their char ter to the last company that made such an effort to build the road, there will be no douM but that the enterprise will be one more star in the crown of Falatka's success. Social Da ace. The second dance by the Palatka Dancing Club was given at Capt. Lucas Hall last night, with quite a large attendance. There were twelve couples, besides quite a numlier of tag, as they are commonly called. The evening was as pleasant a could lie desired, the rain having cooled tlie atmosphere which made it much better for the dancers. Tlie young la dies looked very attractive in their pretty costumes. These dances are growing in popularity, and some of the young men who are so fond of dancing should try and bring a partner. There are several dudes who make a practice of going to dances without ladies and tlen try ami monopolize the company of those that are there. These are not stag dances, gentlemen. The Palatka ( lab. The Palatka Club held a special meet ing Tuesday evening for the purpose of transacting imiortant buaiiiess. There were seven as niemliers and two applica tions received, which will be voted on at the next meeting. The club is in a flour ishing condition: the treasury having a large surplus on hand and no tHitstand ing delits. This organization is one tliat should be upheld by all good citizens, as it is conducted on the right princi ple and is a lienefit to the young men of this city; affording them a place to spend tlieir evenings. The Monday even ing entertainments are of the most re filled character, and it has been sug gested that if a few married ladies would attend, with their husbands, tlie single ladies would not have such a liesitancy in attending tliese entertainments, to which all are invited.

Forties, of Jacksonville, addressed the citizens of this place on the Sub-Tropical Exposi tion, giving full details of tlie plan for the successful accomplishment of the en terprise, also tlie proposed buildings, grounds, etc. Col. Forbes plainly demonstrated that this exposition would be one of the grandest achievement in behalf of the State that has yet been instituted show ing it vast products, the ft ."eat variety of its soil, the manner of cultivation which, once in successful operation, would present one of tlie most delight ful, instructive and entertaining collec tions ever brought under one roof. Here not only the visitor, but the resident could see and feel the incalculable bene fits that are to be derived from the Ex m wit ion. While we are in love with Florida, we are conscious that there are thousauds of others who desire the welfare of the State, wlio will work for its develop meut and make it one of tlie richest and most desirable States in tlie Union. The Colonel remarks were attentively listened to and readily endorsed. A committee of five, consisting of M. K. Bishop, of the Brooksville Bank; L. Y. Jenneas. of the Hernando Hotel; A. Mc. Russell, Mayor Rhoades, D. W. Benway, of Benway, Wilson & Co.. were appoint ed to solicit subscriptions to tlie stuck. Tliese gentlemen will at once enter on their duties, and we have no doubt tliat they will meet with success. After tending Col. Forties a vtite of thnaks the meeting adjourned. We feel tliat Col Forbes is the "right man in the right place, and is working liard for the Exioeition. We have no doubt of the ultimate success of his efforts. On invitation of Mayor Rhoades, Mr. II. Lockwood, of Palatka, paid our city a visit last week, looking over the ground for the proposed artesian welL We found Mr. Lockwood a wide-awake, energetic man. wlio seems to thoroughly understand the business he represents, and we trust he will lie fortunate enough to secure the contiact.

Fear of the snjicrnntural is one varw-ty of li-.ir. It is ditTictilt to a-ssign any nor mal oliject for this fear, unless it were a genuine glit. But. in spite of -eychi-cal rew-ari-h sock-ties, science luis not yet adopbil ghosts; so we can ;ly say tliat certain ideas of supernatural agency, associatiil with real circumstaiHi-s, pni duce a iKi-ulLir kind of horror. This horror is probably explicable as the result of a combination of simpler Iwirrors. To bring the ;ln-stly terror to its maximum, many usual elements of tlie dreadful must combine, such as loneliness, dark ness, inexili:ill sounds, esci:dlv of a dismal cluirartcr, moving figun half lis-cf-rn-tl (or, if lis-4riMsl, ttf dnaIful ;ist). and a vi rfiiiK-tis Imiiling of tlie exiitatfon. Tit is last clement, which is int -llectual, is very iiiiirt.int. It pro dins a strange eniotion:il "mirtlle in Mir HimkI to sec a process, with which we are familiar. dcliU-nitcly taking an unwonted couia.

Joe, over there, is a fair sam ple of tlk average tinker regularly cin lut bil with a well to do hand. lie will earn, make and save $ 1,000 by tlie sum mer's trip, and with it add a few more prized acres to his splendid Pennsylvania farm. I always share a tent with these tinkers, and at-comf-any them on tlieir trips among the farms. Tlie farm folks everywliere know tliein, and 'Hello, Joe (or lJick or Bol), you here agin?" is tlie universal greeting. Then wo are given tlie olil store of unreliable copper boilers, broken griddles, handlcloss tea pots and sieve like milk jmns, wliich have lieen ac cumulating since the gypsies went away last year. For tho village tinsmith's liamtncr is now seldom heanl on all well established gypsy routes. Because Joe is a gypsy he always manage to g)t a Iwtter price for his work tlian a village smith; and Itecause be is a bit of a cob bler and saddler there are countless other little jolts waiting for him and his kind.
