Pensacola Will Have
A Fine Christmas.

Pensacola will have the most pros
porous Christmas this year in her
history.
There is more money In circula-
ton now than there has ever been.
More people have been employed and
at better wages than ever before.
The city is heater, cleaner, and has a
more progressive air than it has ever
had, and the times generally are pro-
pitious as well as prosperous.
A stranger coming to Pensacola
would never imagine that last year
the city suffered quarantine of three
months duration or that less than
three months ago 1t was the victim
of terrific hurricane. All evidences
Of the former have long since disap-
peared, and nothing but a few
stranded vessels along the beach re-
main to give any evidence OF the
latter The city, in fact, is more
prosperous and more advanced than
1t has ever been and the luture could
not be brighter
And when the new city hall, now
in progress of construction, is COM
pleted; when the sewerage and drain
age system, now being laid, is
finished; when the street paving
bonds are issued and that work is
done; when, in fact, these and the
numerous other public improvements
now in progress all become a part
of the city's life and advantages, as
they will before more than two more
Christmas seasons roll around. Pen
sacola will then look back from a po-
sition as advanced over the present
time as her present position is over
that of the years gone by.

The Memphis Commercial-Appeal
in an editorial headed Pie and Petit
coats" On the Storer-Rooseyeit con-
troversy, says: I'VE grow apon what
we feed and as my dear Maria had
created president and an ambassa-
dor, she determined to create car
dinal. Here is where the lady with
fighting name fell down; her view
of the historical perspective was bad;
she could not see that for Thousand
years past the one question in the
foreground of all disputes between
the civil power and spiritual rule has
been, who shall create bishops, arch
bishops, cardinals, etc. Her very de-
sire to have the president ask the APP
pointment of any one as a cardinal,
if satisfied, would have initiated
against that interest. Dear Maria
could not distribute the pie in Ameri
ca, but when she got to Europe she

The issue between France and the
Vatican came about through an order
from Pope Plus to the effect that
priests of the church must not make
the declarations required by the
French law. This order arrayed the
Catholic clergy against the civil au-
thorities and served to emphasize a
condition that had already grown ex-
tremely serious.
The French government cannot re-
cede from its position without danger
of overthrow and, unless some method
can be devised whereby the cordial
relations heretofore existing between
France and the Vatican NAV be re-
sumed, no one can predict what the
end will be-

Naples. Italy. April l0.--At the
busiest hour OF the day. while the
place was crowded with people. the
roof OF the general market house col
lapsed today. burying the entire
throng of stall keepers and purchas-
ers in the debris. Some were able to
make their way out OF the building
without much difficulty, but at least
two hundred we're caught In such
way as to make the work Of rescue
extremely difficult. Twelve corpses
and GO badly injured have already
been taken from the ruins. Immedi-
ately following the accident the sur
rounding streets became an inferno.
so great was the excitement OF the
people. The bodies taken out were
muiilated almost beyond recognition.
LATBR-It has been definitely
learned that the falling in OF the
market house roof was due to the
weight OF ashes and clnders from
vesuvlus, which had accumulated
during tho present eruption. The
rescuers have succeeded In reaching
more victims OF the disaster. Two
hundred persons have been sent to
the hospitals. Gangs OF policemen
and firemen are still searching the
debris.
