Whiskey Wisdom.

Some years ago." says Private" John Allen, there came to Montgom- cry. Ala. a company of actors who put on that play so intensely disliked of Southerners, Uncle Toms Cabin How they escaped without being mobbed is question I shall not attempt to an swer. But at any rate the perform ance was given.
 "At the end of the first act a man who gave evidence of having imbibed rather freely arose from his seat and unsteadily made his way out of the theatre, presumably for the purpose of securing additional liquid refreshment.
 Tn a short time he returned and was about to re-enter the playhouse when he was stopped by the doorkeeper. who said:
 "'You can't come in
 "'Why not?' sullenly demanded the gentleman who had been indulging too freely Here's m return check
 "Check or no check responded the doorkeeper. you cant come in: you're drunk!
 "'Of course I'm drunk, rejoined the other. feelingly. Dye s'pose I'd wanter come back to this show if l wasn'tT" ..

Secret Railroad Business.

Hon. Hoke Smith and Hon. A. B. Steele of Atlanta, Ga, prominent rail- road attorneys. are in Pensacola today but have refused to say just what brought them to Pensacola other than they came here in the interest of railroad line. and this Is taken to mean that 1t Is a new line. When ques- tioned about the matter, MT. Smith re- marked that he was looking after the facilities for reaching deep water. and this has set the people here to think Ing hard.
 It is known, and has been for some time. that these two gentlemen are interested in the Central of Georgia Railroad. and that their visit here has something to do with the proposed ex- tension of that road, carrying the same from a point near Andalusia, Ala. to Pensacola.
 Yesterday afternoon prominent gen tlemen of this city went to the hotel where the visitors were stopping and piloted them about the city more particularly showing to them the fine bay and entrance to the harbor. The visitors were particularly interest in the monster steamships which are able to safely come up to the city docks for cargo, a thing impossible at any of the other gulf ports. These vessels maneuvered in the bay under their own steam. the gentlemen were told, which was another advantage not possessed by another gulf port

Governor spolke for Education.

Governor Cunning nam returned yes terday from Ensley where he spoke Friday night in the Jefferson County campaign for a special local tax for school purposes.
 was greeted by large. attentive and enthusiastic audience" said the Governor. The people of Jefferson County are greatly interested in this question of benefiting the schools by local tax. The sentiment in the county for the. tax, so far as I have been able to judge is almost unani- nous. My plea for the tax was listen- ed to with Interest and attention. At the close of my remarks 1 asked every man in the audience who would go to the polls and vote for the tax to hold up his hand and every one in the audi ence except two raised hls hand. don't know whether the two were op- posed to the tax or were not able to raise their hands"

Commander Owen on the Reunion.

Commenting yesterday on the reun- ion at Nashville Commander Thomas M. Owen, of tho Alabama Division Sons of Confederate Veterans said.
 Tt was decidedly one of she most successful ever held. The attendance was unusually large. due to the sea tion of Nasville. The weather was perfect. The people of the Rock City vied with each other in making the occasion a great success. The rail- roads handled the large crowds ad- mirably.
 The places of meeting of the Veter- ans. of the Ladies Memorial Associa- tion, and of the Sons of Veterans were all near each other, and in the heart of the city. They were near the prin- all. Visitors could thus have the op- portunity of looking in on each one of the great gatherings.
 My observation was that the busi- ness sessions were we'll attended. While delegates and visitors spent much time in sightseeing, they also gave close attention to the accom- plishment of the real work and busi- ness of the reunion. Harmony pre- vailed in all the meetings.
 Alabama was well represented In the attendance of Veterans. Gen. George r. Harrison in CO., mand of the Alabama Division of the Veterans. and his stan. together with the Brigade commanders ana InelT StduS, GeneTaIS Pinckney D. Bowies, John W. Bush and J. NJ Thompson. were conspicuous figures a tthe reunion and in the pa rade. Apart from some spectacular features in other commands, the Vet erans from Alabama made, I think. the very best showing in the parade. They also took prominent part in the proceedings.
 'T was especially pleased with the excellent showing made by the Sons of Veterans from the Alabama Divi- camps were added to the general roll of the U. S. C. ". and of these seven- teen were organized in Alabama alone. We had delegates from seventec camps in actual attendance. Among these were Hon. Emmet ONeal, R. T. Simp- son. Jr.. Hon T. Sydney Frazer and Warwick H. Payne. The delegates fro mthe Alabama Division maintained a lively interest in affairs throughout, noticeable, but the subject of favorable comment. Nine members of my staff were in attendance: Division adjutant and chief of staff Will T. Sheehan. Montgomery; Division Inspector, Dr. c. J. owens, Anniston; Division chaplain Rev. Wm. B. Hope, Guntersville; Di- vision commissary. George w. Duncan. Auburn; Assistant Division inspector Lawson Sykes. Courtland; Assistant Roanoke; and the following Aides Claude Grayson. Huntsville; Edward P. Rosamond. Jasper; B. G. Jennings, Scale

CONDUCTOR ATTACKED
RUFFIANLY NEGROES CAUSE
 TROUBLE ON CAR.
Some Refused to Pay Fare and Melee Followed in Which Street Car Man Fired a RevOi-
 yer.

Pensacola Fla. June 1S.-(Special)-- Things looked serious on an electric car which was returning early this morning from a suburban resort with party of negroes who had been en- toying a picnic at that place all the day before in their own appointed way. It was stated that an attempt was made to mob the conductor. Henry Williams, and also to offer injury to the motorman. W. c. Ward, the only white people on the car.
 By a proper display of courage at the right juncture. trouble of a seri- ous nature was kept down. Early this forenoon one of the negroes who was a passenger on the car went to the police station and swore out a war rant against Conductor Williams for discharging firearms in the city Hints, and also for assault with a pistol. The case was not heard today. having been on motion postponed until Monday morning.
 Negroes had a picnic at Kupfrian's Park yesterday. this place being on the outskirts of the town. It Is reached by an electric line, and to meet the demands of the patrons. the street rail- way company operated cars until after midnight. The last car was returning
  an ugly temper. refused to pay fare and otherwise sought to override the rules of the company. simply because the conductor and his motorman were the only white people aboard.
 This started trouble. but this was kept down to safe point until one of the negroes struck the conductor for apparently nothing. This started the melee. during which 8 revolver was discharged. The report told the negroes that there was a pistol in the car. and believing that the conductor was armed. and that he would use his weapon If occasion demanded it, they made no further trouble.
 The arrest of the conductor this morning was the outcome. but police investigation supports the assertion that Conductor Williams was acting clearly within his authority.

Re-Arrested Negro Boy.

Judge Beggs yesterday afternoon ex- amined into a case wherein Will Tatum, colored, was charged with highway robbery. he having with the use of dangerous weapons, held up and rob bed a negro man of quite a sum of money. At the preliminary hearing of this case. the evidence was sufficient to hold Tatum on bond to await the action of the criminal court for a hear ing. and the bond was fixed at $50 When Judge Beggs examined into the case he saw that there was something more than a mere misdemeanor in the matter and ordered the bond placed at five times the former figure. The negro was re-arrested this morning. and in default of a bond of $500. was committed to the county jail.

A Heavy Fall.

Antonio Giovanni, an Itelian sailor from the bark Abundo, had an experi ence yesterday that would have killed an ordinary human. Giovanni was at the masthead fixing ropes which had become disengaged when he lost his balance and fell the dizzy distance to the hard deck below. Comrades rushed to him expecting to pick up life less body, but were surprised to find that he was breathing. He was rushed to St. Anthony's hospital. whence a re- port Is made this morning that he would probably recover. The distance of his fall must have been over sixty feet, and in his descent he struck a cross arm and several ropes.

More Convicts Escaped.

Sheriff Van Pelt this morning re- ceived official information of the whole sale escape of convicts from a stockade near Westville, Fla. and also that at least one of those who got away was Jessie Miller. a negro who was sent up from this county for the unwarranted shooting of Deputy Sheriff McCurdy. the Alabama official who passed through a car in which the negro was seated and was shot by him. The negro was sent up for five years. Be- fore the convicts had been free of the stockade many hours a gentleman named Crews met them in the road and recognizing that two of them were convicts. attempted to capture them. The negroes were desperate and sprang at the white man ferociously. A fight ensued and Crews was badly stabbed, but succeeded in getting off alive. The gentleman Is not out of danger, and the convicts are yet at large.

Delicate Skin FreckIes.

Some skins are so delicate that they become freckled on the slightest expo sure to the open air In summer. The cause is that the iron In the blood forming a junction with the oxygen, leaves a rusty mark where the juno tion takes place
 The obvious remedy is to dissolve the combination. One cure is a lotion made by adding one-half an ounce of lemon juice to one-half pint of rose water and adding two drams of pow dered alum. Apply with a clean cam els hair brush.
 Still another cure Is about one-half a pint of milk. the juice of a lemon and a tablespoonful of brandy. Boil and skim. then add a dram of rock alum.
 Another good recipe is the following Rub one-half a dram of powdered bo- rax with onehalf an ounce of glycerin. gradually add three ounces of rose wa ter and one dram of bitter almond wa ter and, lastly. one dram of tincture of benzoin. stirring constantly. Apply about three times a week.
