Pensacola, Fla, Oct. 7.--(Special.)- Mayor Bliss suffered something of a scare Thursday night, or at least his many friends suffered while the mayor was composed, as he always is. The mayor, who had been doing double du- ty since the fever broke out. went home and after reaching there was seized with sudden chills Other symptoms seemed to show very con- clusivelys that he had at last suffered an attack of the fever. but things didn't tufn out that way. for His Honor turned up bright and nearly at his of1ce this morning. showing no signs of his indisposition.
 Mayor Bliss is greatly interested in the stamping out of the fever, and quite naturally so. While has never been near an epidemic of this sort be- fore he is giving the situation a great deal of attention, visiting every pa- tient that he hears of and manifest ing an interest shown by few. He is available at all hours if he is needed. Yesterday afternoon he issued a call for volunteer inspectors to make daily inspections of different blocks of the city to see that no fever develops There have been few responses to this call, however.

An Interesting Case.

A case of unusual interest but of long standing will come up in the Co., tober term of the United States Su- preme Court which convenes at Wash ington Monday next. This is the case of Florida Mcclure vs. the Pensacola City Company, some of the most promi- nent people nothe place being inter- ested in the proceeding. This case will be among the first to be argued, since 1t is among the first on the docket, telegraphic information to that effect having been received in this city.
 This case concerns the title to a great tract of land in the northeastern portion of the city which has been in long disputei In February this case was made more prominent than usual on account of figuring in the impeach- ment proceedings of Judge Chales Swayne of the United States court be- fore the United States Senate. It was stated in that trial that one of the grounds for the sentencing of two at torneys to Jail was on account of these lawyers having brought a suit against the Federal judge asking him to not sit on the case, it being claimed that one of his relatives had become interested in the land. This placed the contention for the possession of title quite prom inently before the country. Hon. Will liam A Blount of this city will be in Washington during the week and will argue the case for the present holders of the land. The case has run it's course through about every tribunal in this part of the country, even having been sifted through the court of ap- peals at New Orleans and having been passed upon by United States Judges in the district and in the South. It is now in the highest tribunal of the land. and those who have been busted state that they have all the chance in the world of having the title held by them declared good.

FRIENDS TO DRIVE OUT GANG.
Governor Pennypaeker's Cousin Would
Lead Host Against State House

PHILADELPHIA, May 2O-The
burgess of Westminster, Charles H.
Pennypacker, cousin of Governor
Pennypacker, proposes to corral a
mighty host on July 4, descend
upon Harrisburg, drawing up a new
declaration of independence, send his
cousin scuttling out of his guberna-
torial job, and put to rout that octo-
pus which is sapping the life blood of
the people," the republican machine.
Burgess Pennypacker rose at the
evening session of the yearly meeting
of the Friends to shoot his bolt at the
gang. He converted it into a war
camp, r, d hot for a fight.
Talk. talk, and talk said he;
talk of ideal politics in a cemetery.
But thee cannot fight one organization
until thee makes another just as big

MONKEY THAT TALKS.
Brazilian Doctor Says He Has Taught
an Ape to Repeat Words.

Brasilian Doctor Says He Has Taught
an Ape to Repeat Words.
The director Of the National museum
of the City of Mexico recently receiv-
ed copy Of a report issued by Dr. s.
w. Speiztechizze, director Of the mu-
scum in Rio Janeiro, Brazil, detailing
the results Of his experiments with
monkeys. says the st. Louis Globe
Democrat. The report is sensational.
DR. Speiztechizze declares that he has
taught one large ape to talk and to
obey commands and says that he be-
lieves 1t possible to develop similar
powers and intelligence in the majority
of monkeys. The talking ape at pres
ent simply repeats words and express
sions like parrot. but the Brazilian
doctor says he thinks the animal will
ultimately reach such a grade Of intel
ligence as to be able to express his de-
sires in speech.
DR.. Speiztechizze concludes his re-
port with the statement that he is con-
fident monkeys can be made useful in
many kinds of work and that they can
be trained for offensive and defensive
action in case Of war.

replied Mitchell, "only you know /
thought you wanted to fight right

me two clean weeks, and 1 would be as
fit as l can get at my time of life.
I would do better with two clean weeks
of training than with three months.
Understand what 1 mean, eh?"
And if looks count for anything the
genial Charlie was not "spooning'
about being in pretty fair chape. He
is about the same size as John Consi-
dine, and looks more like well-to- do
business man than an old-time cham
pion prize fighter.
Last night there came near being a
rough house between the two old glad
iators Mitchell came in from Van

he had read somewhere that john L.

and additions in the plans of the man
sion made this demand only fair. Ar.
chitect Hull knew that at North Jay

ry of pure white granite, that adjoin
ed the quarry of the Maine & New
Hampshire company.
Sending the facts to the senator b!
cable he awaited a reply. 1t came fast
Buy that quarry; if possible"
Bought Quarry
He did buy it, and then not only re.
jected the higher price of the New
Hampshire companw, but abrogated its
contract, because it had not lived uI
to it.
The senator decided that no contrac-
tor should bleed him again. He de-
cided to establish a stone dressing
plant. Then he decided that as 500,
900 worth of bronzes were to be used
the only way to successfully escape the
extortion of the contractors was to
own a bronze foundry. The same ar
gument held good as to the woodwork
and decorating plaster, and the sena-
tor added these to his list.

house with which the owner hopes tc

cigar, while the sparring about articles
was going on, giving voice to a grunt
ever and anon to show that ne was lis
a nut, signed for the big fight before
breakfast. He had been up late the
night before and did not get up until
about IL o'clock. Tlren he had his
tub bottle of beer and a cigar, and
he was ready to talk business.

Willie Green had been standing in
the center of the big room, look ing at
first one of the old fighters and then at
the other, and the pause was growing
a trife awkarl. when he cleared his
throat and asked, What about sign
ing articles now?'
Charlie removed his cigar from his
face long enough to smile all around
and then said:

but the sooner you make it the better
it suits me. Understand what 1 mean,
