Prsnarinr for Visitors.

Captain W. H. Reeder of the battl- shin Alabama writes to The Advertiser correspondent that he will be glad to welcome to his vessel the people Of Alabama, and as soon as the ship is ready for visitors, will be pleased to have the good people of the State after which the ship Is named to call on board and make themselves acquainted
 The Alabama, however, will hardly be open to visitors before Monday or Tuesday. The ship has been for week trying to complete her practiclng on the gulf. but the weather has been so disagreeable that the effort was all but abandoned. The battleship Illi- nois remained off that bar for the pur- pose of the two engaging in and com pleting the practice. recurrence or stormy weather, however, impelled the captain of the Illinois to come into the bay and wait for more calm weather. The other ship fought 1t out and re- turned to port only this afternoon aI- ter making a record which will com pare with favorableness to that estab- lished by any ship in the navy. Here tofore the fast and accurate firing rec ord was held by the battleship Wis consin on the Asiatlc station. The Wisconsin's record was equalled some days ago by the Alabama. and report coming today from the Alabama, whlch dropped anchor in the bay for Sunday, is that the best of gunnery developed in the smashing of targets during the week. No better shooting can be done than that of hitting six times in six shots. but the time of firing is little against the ship. since she did not quite equal other records in that respect.
 The general information from the flagship today Is that there will be a rublic reception on the vessels of the souadrons Sunday Visiting was not encouraged a great deal today on ac- count of the wish of the officers to have the vessels In trim for the large number of visitors who will be on hand Sunday. The information comes that there will be upward of a thousand people from Alabama in the city from the several excursion trains early to- morrow morning. and there is an in-

SAILORS DESERVING
WARSHIPs AT PENSACOLA HAVING
 MUCH TROUBLE.
At Least Six Hundred BIuejackets Said to He Missing from Their Ves- sells, and Thorough Search
 Is Being Made.

Pensacola, Fla, April S.-(Special)- Naval vessels at this point are now experiencing a condition that has never presented itself in such an ex- tended form. the officers say. This IS nothing more than a wholesale deser- tion of blue1aekets from the ships, and 1t is today estimated that at least 500 sailors are missing from the vessels, this of course greatly initiating against the proper equipping of the great ships.
 Sailors who have been seen on shore give varying excuses for leaving the ships Some of them have an idea that the vessels will for the most part be made station ships at some out-ofthe way place, where disturbances are not infreouent, and others say that treat ment is not as 1t should be. Still oth- CTS contend that they only left because they wanted to get ashore, to get on American soil and to stay there just as long as they can.
 Yesterday city and county off1cers were out hunting the deserters in the city's outskirts, for information came to the authorities that camps of de- serting seamen had been established at various points. Investigation by the authorities disproved these assertions. This morning Chief Schad of the police department, went out to the flagship Maine and had a conference with Rear Admiral Evans regarding the methods of apprehending the deserters. Rear Admiral Evans readily placed at the disposal of the Pensacola officer just as many marines as possible, and as need full for taking in all deserters found. The determination to have them re- turned to the ships is strong one' and the regulation reward of $lO per man fc naid mt freQuently.
 Marines patrol the city nowadays. or course they are not armed, but are au- thorized to pick up any man in tho navy uniform who cannot show prop CT credential or permit. To facilitate the work of the marines as well as the city poliee, no new men are allowed to coma aahora fram the battleships

Tn senaratn Races.

Campbell Avery. Jr.. the young man from this county who is serving his first term in the Florida Legislature, has made himself somewhat famous by the introduction of & bill providing for the separation of the races on street cars. The matter has been before the Florida legislative body in the past, but has met with little or no support, since 1t has never been pushed to any great extent. Now, however, the con- ditions are said to be so that the op- eration of the law shall be soon a necessity and 1t is the opinion that the matter will be rushed through suc- cessfully.
 People of Florida cities having a street railway system have been in sisting for some months on the enac- ton of a law covering the points made by Mir. Avery's bill, and for that req son it Is stated that there will be not great deal of opposition except by the operators of the railways them selves Of course the negroes will register a protest.

prosperous camps will do much to rob
the desert of its terrors both real anu

due to mining. The poss bi ity of find ng
