QUEEN SAbE CLUB TO TAKE BAND
 ID REUNION
Musicians From Land of Man. ana Will Dispense Strains al Philadelphia Preparations 8uSiIy Going On

The Elks'. convention bulletin is- sued by the Philadelphia Lodge of Elks. which tells of the progress of preparations for the great national re union of the antlered ones in the Quaker City July IS to 20, announces that the celebrated Quien Sabe club of Fl Paso is to be there in all its glory, and that 1t will bring the Old Mexican band along with it. The bulletin says:
 "A question of considerable import ance was settled 2 few days ago when ,hc committee ir charge of the plans for the convention and reunion of the B. ?. O. Elks, which is to be held in this city duringlthe week beginning July l5 next, reeeived word from the American Federation of Musicians that no objection would be interposed to the appearance of the Guadalajara Military band on the occasion of the convention parade. This band, which comes from the state of Jalisco, Mexi- co, has been engaged by the Quien Sabe club, of Fl Paso, Texas, to lead them in line during the grand parade of Elks
 This club is composed exclusively of Fl Paso Elks, and they have prom ised to come here more than a hun dred strong. But owing to the fact that the Mexican band is d military and government organization, and therefore not members of the Musical Union, the Fl Paso club first requested a aydispensation from the American Federation of Musicians to permit the Mexicans to take part in the parade before applying to the Mexican gov ernment for the musicians leave of absence.
 This band consists of sixty pieces, and comes from a point 1.200 miles south of Fl Paso. It will cost the Quien Sabe club s7.0O0 to bring them here. but tie item of expense is very little compared with the glory that the Fl Pasoans will win when they appear with such high-class musical organi- Zation as the Guadalaiara band

TaWney ReTturnS From Trip to Big Ditch, and Talks with President About Conditions He Found There,

WASHINGTON, April 12.-Chair- man Tawney. of the house committee on appropriations, and Representative Olcott, who has recenly returned from a visit to the Isthmus of Pana- ma, today discussed with the presi- dent. conditions as found there.
 Tawney was fayorably impressed with the progress being made in the canal work, and told the president that he thought that at the present rate, the waterway should be com pleted within five years. He said he regarded as unfortunate that Jne en gineering world had represented to tho people. that an almost impossible engineering problem confronted them.
 The present conditions to be met, he said, were those of a sufficient railroad capacity to take care of the dirt eXcavated, and sanitation wIrn a view of keeping the place in a good healrhful condition.
 Tawney discussed with the ,,t esi. dent questions affecting apprOpria- tions for the canal work and it is likely that legislation bearing on the subject will be recommended to con- gress as a result of the visit to the isthmus.

GLOBE IS FASCINATING
 TO THE OLD TIMERS
They Find Themselves Unable to Enjoy Life Elsewhere
 Even With Wealth.

Col. E. J. Edwards or Globe is in Phoenix. He brought from that boom ing town reports similar to those i'm ported by all who come from It, says the Phoenix Republican. There has been no let-up ill the increase of the prices of real estate which grows more valuable for market purposes with ev- cry report of great mineral develop ment in the vicinity and such develop ments are almost continuous. The only danger. Colonel Edwards says, is that the prices of real estate will get so high that it may be found advisable to change the location of the town. There is an embarrassment of riches in that community. Men who had struggled for years with little hope of reward are now rolling in wealth to which they have so far been unable to adjust themselves to their own satisfaction.
 Most of the people of Globe had for years held interests in mining claims concerning whose worth nobody knew. Mine owners were so common that no account was taken of them Nearly all these properties have been found to be of great value and the owners TeCSiNeu pIluCciy SulilS TUT lutil.

One of the most enthusiastic believ-
ers in the future greatness of Florida
arrived in Birmingham yesterday in
the person of E. B. Bailey of Monti-
cello, who is only waiting for the open
ing Of the Panama canal to see his
native state take the highest rank
among southern states in the trade
which shall be created by this new
outlet for American products
Florida is nearer the Panama ca
nal than any other southern state"
said Mr.. Bailey yesterday. and we are
preparing to reap the benefit of this
great undertaking. My state is max
ing great strides in development, and
in the counties of Leon and Gadsden
in which | am most interested, there
can be found wonderful progress in
farming.
1.-The state capital, Tallahassee, is IN
Leon county, and not many years ago
there was little evidence of prosper
ity, but these things are all changed
Leon and Ga'dsdien counties are fcrg-
ing to the front in the production of
fruit and melons, but the cultivation
Of tobacco is the greatest factor of
present prosperity.
We are producing the finest to-
bacco in America, equal to the best
produced in Cuba. or any other part
of the world, and the trade is just
beginning u realize it. While | live
at Monticello, in Jefferson county, my
greatest interests are in the other two
counties and in addition to the agri-
cultural products, / think there is the
greatest opportunity in the world for
cement and brick manufacture in that
section of the state. There is an
abundance Of fine limestone and clay
which can be utilized for all purposes
and a railroad Is being projected
through the section where clay and
limestone are found-and when it is
completed the manufacture of cement
and brick win be taken up on a large
scale.
Around Monticello and throughout
a greater part Of jefferson county can
be found the largest plantations of
watermeions and pears in the south.

Tales, Ivan Bulanovski relates the fol-

One day the count was standing on
the platform of the railway station
of Tula when an express train came
WhiZz1ng up and stopped. A young
man jumped out of a first-class COM
partment and hurried to the refresh
ment room. A young lady followed
him to the platform, calling: George.

Count Tolstoi did as requested and

Meanwhile the platform had gradually

heard the passengers saying to each
other:
Look, look! There is ToIstoi,"
Where is Tolstoi?" she FASTENED

The Saloon
Regulation Ordinance.

The substitute ordinance, fixing the
license and providing for the regulation
of saloons, as read the first time in
the city council Wednesday night, ap-
pears to embody the correct principle,
but it is, we think, weak in certain
textures.
The ordinance provides a restrict
ed" district in which the license shall
be $1,000, and it fixes a license of
$4,000 for everything outside of that
district.
The $4,000 license is too low. The
I intention of fixing a district is TO
have all of the saloons confined to
that district, and the $4,000 license
for saloons outside of the district is
INTENDED to prevent anyone from es-
Publishing such saloons. But $500
license will not do this.
W. Under a s2s5O0 license, one or more
saloons will continue to flourish at
the depot At least one saloon can
easily exist in the residence section
of West Hill. These dives should
be prohibited, and the city council
can prohibit them by putting on a
license high enough to accomplish
that purpose A license of at least
$4,000 should be provided for every
thing outside of the district"
Another weak feature of the ordi-
nance hes in the fact that Saturday
night closing hour is left at O'Clock.
the same closing hour provided for
other days. The saloons on Satur-
day nights should be closed not later
than O'Clock. If an early closing
hour is a good thing On other nights,
an earlier closing hour is still bet
ter thing on Saturday nights.
We have not copy of the ordinance
at hand and are therefore not in po-
sition to discuss ii in detail, but the
features noted should certainly be
changed. If we are to have a regu-
lative ordinance, let it be such in the
fullest sense of the term. And IL we
cannot et.Prohibtion we will at least
have the ordinance.

TO INDUCE PATRONAGE

Editor Pensacola Journal:
An article of Mr.. A. F. Warren,

thereto, I claim it my privilege to

be necessary to draw the trade. Any
ruse is permissible to draw Gus
toners, so long as the ads are true,
and qtsS atoms in conformity with
the ad; in fact, so long as customers
are dealt with honestly.
My mention of the ladies is by no
means a confession, but simply in
conformity with usage IN the southern
states. AS my\place is so arranged
that ladies may visit it without vio-
lating propriety, l simply SO stated.
But even had 1 Confessed according
to Mr.. Warren's notion, it would not
have been accepted as sound policy.
Where the least fraction of argument
in favor of dry exists, it is gobbled
up by prohibitionists for want of
better subject.

it saw fit it could double the sale of
