FOREIGN MISSIONS.

Rev. l. G. Jordan, secretary of the
Baptist Foreign Mission Board, with
headquarters at 726 w. Walnut street,
Louisville, KY, feels confident that they
will raise the ten thousand dollars asked
for foreign missions on next Sunday.
Foreign Mission Rally Day was inaugu-
rated just eleven years ago. Only three
hundred dollars were realized from that
rally. Last year, the Boards Report
showed seven thousand dollars collected.
This year DR.. Jordan is very anxious
that they reach the ten thousand dollar
mark, and indeed every Baptist in this
country should see 10 it that he or she
do his or her part in helping to raise
the amount asked for. We learn that
even their little churches and missions
in Africa, South Africa, West Indies
and their one little missions in Russia
are taking part in this great rally for the
foreign work

Pensacola is now threatened with
meat famine Two shipments for
local packing houses have Desn lost
on the road, for although they were
due here several days ago, they had
not arrived last night. Yesterday
the supply kept on hand by the pack
ing houses became exhausted, one
company not having any meat of any
kind, while the other had only half a
veal. The fact that these supply
houses could not fill the wants of their
customers caused an extra demand
to be made upon Morgan Bros, who
do their own slaughter-ng, with the
result that their supply was soon 6x-
hausted.
Due Sunday.
The cars were due here Sunday
morning, and it was expected that
they would surely reach here on that
date. as the packing houses, since
the yellow fever two years ago, keep
but small stock of fresh meats on
hand. and rely on regularity of ship

not the case, and yesterday morning
no meat could be secured. except a
small quantity which had been left
over from the day previous.
May Arrive Today.
The meat may arrive today, but if
it does not, none cam be secured ex-
cept from those who do their own
butchering. The cars were expected
yesterday afternoon, but did not, ar

Army of $4,000.
The news that France has had no
other way out of the present trouble
IN Morocco than invading the country
with a powerful army and entirely
crushing the fighting tribesmen, is
row being discussed more openly in
army circles. 1t is learned on good
authority that France has proposed
to Spain that an army of so, 900 made
up of French and Spanish regulars be
sent on an expedition to the interior
Of Morocco penCt-G:ilg the Fez- The
main object Of this move it not TO
capture any interior city, but to get
az the hordes of MOOrS, who nOtwith-
standing the numerous defeats, still
maintain camps in front of the French
lines, stubbornly attacking the French
forces every day.
General Drude, who is aware that
the Moors are emlboldened by the
knowledge that the French cannot
pursue them without violating the AL
geciras convention, says such a step
Is necessary. He favors a large force,
a quick campaign and pacific occupa-
ton of these regions of which the
Mo0rs are organized into fighting
forces. The specific aim of the French
is to follow up their fights with the
AIoors. chase them toward the in

lesson as the pursuit is kept up.
A Big Slaughter.
The expedition would mean fright
fUl slaughter of the tribesmen-a sac
rifce Of life that would startle the
world but it is deemed the only way
by French army officers, to put down
the revolt and sway of anarchism in
the country. 1t is pointed out that
the trouble in Morocco is not of local
nature. and is of greater significance
than is realized. The ruined cities.
the constant boom Of cannon and
rattle Of rifle fire and the loss of thou
sands Of lives. are a serious remind
er that the French and Spanish face
a war Of serious consequences, and
not small native uprising.
Until a crushing defeat has been ad-
ministered to the McOrs and they are
scattered, no attempt will be made TO
establish a military police system at
