One of the speakers called this gathering centTalization of the forees fight ing for the blue sky This is one phase in the general struggle for mu- nicipal cleanliness and the betterment of civic conditions. 1t was decided that the active members of the asso- citation be confined to public officials employed in the administration or en- forcement of smoke ordinances. in the North American continent. while those interested in the suppression of smoke discharges will be known as associate members John Fairgrieve of Detroit was chosen president; Charles Roeth- ke, of Milwaukee, vice. president and R. c.

Fire, which occurred this morning at 3 o'clock destroyed the two story building and stock of furniture of George B. Green on North DeVillier street, entailing a loss of about $7.- 900, with insurance of $s,000 The fire was found 10 be of incendiary origin. though the proprietor has no idea who the person was who committed the crime. For half an hour the entire settlement in the northwestern section of the city was threatened. as the fire had evidently been smouldering for some time. and when 1t burst through, the roof burned with much fury Several cottages in the imme-

Refused to Rnn Train.

The several hundred men at the Pen sacola navy yard, who are employed as mechanics, laborers, etc, were yes- terday refused a request by the Ter minal Company to send special train each Saturday afternoon to the navy yard for them at 1 o'clock, instead of at o'clock, as is always the case. The men are given half holiday ev- cry Saturday and living in the city they desired to come up at once, and thought the company would run tho train, accepting as fare tickets from their books, which they purchase at reduced rates, but these would not be accepted by the company. The man. agement stated, however, that if reg ular tickets were purchased the train would be run. The workmen instead of patronizing the train, boarded 8 steamer, winch had come down for any who might wish to come up town at a reasonable fare, and when the train reached the yard only two passengers out of the hundred or more were there to board 1t It is probable that the men will hereafter charter boat to return to the city each day.

PIumher is sentencea.

J. P Ho1fister. the plumber. who last week pleaded guilty to three charges of passing worthless checks upon Pensacolians. was yesterday sen- fenced by Judge Beggs to serve one year and six months in the penften- tiary for the crimes. Two of the checks. one for s10 and the other Tor s15, were cashed in Dannhesier's sa- loon on South Palafox street, while the other for the sum of $5 was cashed by Tickett Agent II. W. Sublett of the Louisville and Nashville. Hollister had downcast appearance and did not seem to care whether he got one or ten years in the penitentiary. He had no comment to make either before or after sentence was passed, did not ask for clemency Or mercy or attempt an explanation, but seemed as though he had given pp all hope and was resigned to his fate. Hollister is a man of about 40 years. is of refined appear ance and during the time that he was employed in Pensacola made many friends. His only excuse. and that was not made at the time he was sentenc- ed or where it could be heard by the judge, was that he was drinking and did not know what he was doing, nor did he know until arrested in New Orleans.

TO INSPECT MEAT
PENSACOLA TO DE CAREFUL OF
 FOOD.
Mayer wfn Probably Appoint Two In- spectors Who VIII Visit All Fruit Stands and Markets
 fin the Cfty.

Pensacola, Fla. July f5.--tSpecial)- The discovery by the sanitary inspec- tors of many carcasses of spoiled meat in the various packing houses during the past few weeks, has caused the City Board of Health to take steps toward more rigid Inspection of all the cold storage plants and meat mar kets in the city, and they have decid- ed that in order to properly attend to the inspection the office of City Meat Inspector will have to be created, and 1t Is probable that two men will be employed.
 The present sanitary force of only four men Is inadequate to inspect the premises all over the city. and in ad- dltion make a daily inspection of meat markets and cold storage plants. so the Board at a special meeting de- cided to petition the Council for an approximation sufficient to employ four additional inspectors, two of whom will be practical men in the meat bus mess and will be assigned to this duty.
 The other two men will be employ ed for only the remainder of the sum- mer in the inspection of yards. fruits stands and similar places. The posi- ton is taken by the members of the Board that if spoiled meats are fre- duently found in large quantities in both cold storage plants of the pack ing houses. that there must be more of 1t in the meat markets. and an ih- spection of at least once . day should be made.
 Mayor Bliss takes the view that the residents cannot expect to be healthy unless the food product Is clean and fresh. It is probable that the request for more money to employ the addi- tiona1 men will be granted by the f- nance committee of the Council. as all see the necessity of additional inspec- tors.
 The cases against J. D. Carroll of Swift and Company. and Arthur A. Davis of Armour and Company. for having tainted meat in their cold storage plants. were again postponed in the recorders court yesterday morn ing. The case against Davis has been pending for several weeks. he hav- inR been arrested within a few days after the first spoiled meat was dis covered. and it has been in the hands of the city attorney since. Carroll was arrested last week. and both eases will be tried at the same time.

Remarkably small Infant.

The smallest baby ever born in Pen sacola. or probably in the South and survive. Is the little mite of a daugh- ter of MT. and Mrs. A. Carmala, of T14 South Palafox street. They are Italians engaged in the ship broker- age business. and reside over their store The child. who appears to be healthy. weighs less than two pounds. It is less than eleven inches in length and a wedding ring can easily slip over one of its arms, while the face is about the size of silver dollar. The baby Is without a doubt the smallest ever seen here to be a fully developed child and in the best of health. Many persons have visited the home anxious to get glimpse of the little lady and the. Italian parents are very proud of their daughter. It Is stated that when it was born, which was several days ago. that 1t weighed about seventeen ounces. but ie 1t now gaining flesh and growing rapidly.

chooses to wear exclusively before lay
ing others aside.
Should blue happen to become her
fairness better than pink or white, 1t
then is alike effected for her morning,
evening and street gowns. The rib
bons running through her lingerie
show this color only, her hats, her fans
and belts lend themselves to its per-
lection.
Pink is more difficult to wear ex-
clusively than blue. 1t has invariably
'.dressy'' look, which is not always
desirable, and in red, or in it's intense
shades, it is not good summer color
for the street Next to blue, green,
when becoming, is perhaps the best
color to choose, as in both it's pale and
deep shades it is charming. There is
hint abroad, moreover, that a woman
gowned in triumphant green has way
of casting the colors worn by other
women somewhat in the shade.
When brown is chosen as the becom-
ing color for exclusive wear, yellow
or it's complement is worn IN the even
ing In Paris, however, it is only
married women who ever wear yell
low When seen there on a young
girl 1t at once stamps her as declasse.
In America also, where so many
women get their gowns directly from
upon as bad form for yellow to be
worn by young unmarried girls.
Mrs. Anthony Hope was one of the
first women who appreciated the effect
iveness of wearing one color. Her
choice fell to green, and although
lately she has occasionally been seen
in brown, it is in the first of these
colors that she looks her best. carrying
out as it does her extremely artistic
personality. Mrs. Perry Belmont wore
raspberry color for a long time, and
Mrs Phil Lydig regards black as her
most becoming color. Mrs. Jack" As
tor wears mostly pastel shades, gray
being the one among them she effects.
For travelling wraps in the shape OF
double capes are being shown in the
French shops. They are very elegant
in a simple tailor made fashion. One
very striking wrap on this order, three
quarter length, was of black and white
check English cloth. the Checks being
large and distinct. The upper cape
| reached about half way between the
hip and knee, the lower cape falling
below the knee. The upper cape did not

/ fell perfectly straight about a foot

broad band of embroidery at the top of
the skirt goes across the bust, and the
bands across the shoulders are en-
broidered to match or are made of lace
to match. The princess lingerie gowns
are not supposed to need belts or bod
ices. and are finished around the waist
either with a broad band of lace in
sertion or with rows of shirring. How
ever, as the lines are sometimes too Sc
we're, it is thought quite smart to wear
fancy belts or bodices.
The newest are decidedly novel, made
Of separate pieces of ribbon or silk,
&C injected at the sides, back and front
with straight pieces under which are
wide pieces of whalebone. Down the
back, and front also if the effect is
more becoming, are tiny butterfly bows,
fancy buckles or buttons. These belts
are most carefully cut and fitted and
are extremely becoming. Made of flow
cred ribbon, they are charming with
white gowns. The old d-fashioned soft
gircles and sashes with long ends are
also becoming and look extremely we'll
with the lingerie gowns. They are
fastened at the side Or in front and the
ends are slipped through buckle. 1t
is quite easy to give a becoming line to
the figure by this fashion, for the belt
can be drawn in close at the back and
sides and the long ends well drawn
down in front before they are slipped
through the slide or buckle are ex-
tremely graceful.
Extremely short jackets have been
popular for so long Inat there is bound
to be a reaction soon in favor of longer
cnes. but in the meaArIme they are GER
tainly most delightfully."- smart, and as
they show the belt it means that es-
peciaI attention must be given to that
part Of the gown. The fitted braided

readily be understood it is quite pos
sible TO use most expensive and orig
inal designs. At the same time, for
the benefit of the needy. let ii be un-
derstood that there are no end of most
charming and effective buckles to be
had at comparatively small cost.
The close fitting draped waist with
the material in crossed surplice folds
does not require a belt, but the effect
of one can be given by massing the
folds quite close together just at the
lower part of the waist. Then the
ends may be passed through buckle.
or. as has been successfully done, there
may be succession of tiny buckles,
while the side that crosses over can
be in three or four slashed ends that
are passed through these same buckles.
In truth there are no end of smart
choices in finishing the bottoms OF
waists in these -davs, and To this is due
the individuality of this years fash
ions. which require the attention to
the small details that make the whole
costume so smart and trim.
The empire fashion is to be noticed
again in the finish of the newer gowns
that have the princess or corselet skirt,
for across the top is a band of lace or
a fold of velvet or satin, a most trying
style even for a slender figure, but one
that has received the approval of some
leading dressmakers. In it's original
conception the corselet or princess skirt
has some difficult points to combat. II
is an extremely severe style, the lines
are apt TO cut the figure unbecomingly
and yet in the hands of a clever artist
and worn by woman whose natural
lines are long and slender it can be
extremely graceful. Just where the
line of the skirt should end must needs
be carefully studied, for although as a
rule these skirts are never worn with
the short jacket, they must be perfectly
finished to be worn without it. The
