h WARMING NOTE
FROM HEAL I'll
OFFICER
DR.. Pierpont Says Mosquito
Breeding Places Must
Be Destroyed.

City Health Officer J. H Pierpont,
who returned last week from a visit
to his old school at Richmond, Va.
which he had not seen for nineteen
years, was asked yesterday by Jour
nal representative what effort was be-
| ing made to prevent the breeding Of
mosquitoes in Pensacola this season.
The city health department is do
| ing all that can be done under the
circumstances" replied Dr. PierponU,
but with only five inspectors, and
one of them exclusively employed in
the inspection of meat markets, fruit
islands, cold storage houses, etc, it is
absolutely impossible to give the at
| tention to the mosquito Problem which
| its Importance demands.
The warm winter and the cOpiouS
rains" continued the energetic health
officer, have produced conditions eX-
tremely favorable to the breeding of
mosquitoes and while the city was
almost free from them last year. there
will be more than ever this year I'M
less the health department has more
inspectors or the citizens themselves

breeding places which exist on the
premises of almost every residence
in the city. -
THE weathr is hot shrldurdlurdlu
The matter is not one of health
alone, but of comfort dis well" said
DR.. Pierpont, "and there would be 10
trouble about getting rid of the mos
quito if every family in the city would
keep their premises clear of Stagnant
water Water that lodges in an ewes
trough, the hollow of an old tree, emp
ty barrels, old tin cans, broken crock
cry which has been cast away-water
that remains standing anywhere, III
facial of these places breed mos
Quitoes, and all of them could be pre-
vented from doing so If people would
simply empty the water out
Dr. Pierpont also regrets that more
people have not provided their homes
with screens and thus keep out both
flies and mosquitoes. Flies are the
most prolific source of the conveyance
of tuberculosis and typhoid fever
germs known, while mosquitoes are
the sole and only means through
which malarial and yellow fever arc
conveyed. If people would only pro-
tect themselves from these little pests
by destroying their breeding places
and providing screens for dwellings,
there would be no danger of any Of
the fevers mentioned and little dan
ger of consumption which is now so
common all over the country.
DR.. Pierpont has sounded the note
of warning. Will the people heed it?

Pensacola Should Resent This.

When the sandhill farmer sees a
new gopher hole in his pea patch and
a quarter of an acre of vines eaten
of. he is apt to forget that Noahs ark
was built of gopher wood. that the
gopher has been used as a medium of
exchange in Pensacola and ST Au-
sustine and that its scientific name
is testudo pOlyphemus. He is more
apt to- cuss the "darned critter" and
wish there were no ''sich" in the
world. Very few gophers are ever
eaten nowadays. the principal use for
the animal being to turn il on its
back in dry weather in order TO in
duce rain. This procedure is said to
be almost as efficacious as to hang
dead snake on the fence If that
senate bill is anything but a joke. il
can rank among Colonel Bunker's''

which Nicaragua was accused by Hon
duras of lending aid to the enemies
of Honduras. 1t was then agreed to
submit these difficulties to arbitration,
the tribunal to meet in San Salvador.
according to the treaty Of Corinto.
The tribunal met and in accordance
with article two of the treaty demand
ed as a basis for their deliberations
the disarmament of the armies of Mic
aragua and Honduras. The president
of Nicaragua did not accept the decIs-
ion of the tribunal. While the presi-
dent of Honduras, inspired by polit-
ical loyalty and frank diplomacy in
his desire for peace, was dismissing
his forces, the president of Nicara-
qua was modifying troops on the
frontier, declaring that the arbitra-
tors had not the authority to order
disarmament.
The protection lent to enemies, the
preparations for war and the con-
centration of the Nicaraguan forces on
the frontier, had besides other mo-
tives, the eluding of decision OF his
majesty Alfonso XIII, king of Spain.
President Jose Santos Zelaya of Mic
aragua desired to usurp and take po-
session of a tract of 5000 acres which
naturally, by possession for ages by
history and by the just award of the
king of Spain, is legitimately and ex-
clusively the property of Honduras.
Perceiving the danger which threaten
ed the integrity and national homer
and in observance of article 73 of the
first part of the national constipation,
the national congress has declared
martial law. The country has been
provoked to an unjustifable war. De-

eminent presided over by Don Jose

CENTRAL AMERICAN WARFARE.

In regard to the fierce and at times
almost bloody warfare now being
waged in Central America, it is inter-
esting to learn that the nation in
volved have become sufficiently civil
lied to give a reason for their quar-
rel, and are not fighting merely for
love of strife. In reply to the state
ment of President Zelaya of Nicara-
qua, declaring that the war resulted
from an attack made by Honduranean
forces on small Nicaraguan garrison
on the frontier, for which reparation
was refused, President Manuel Bon
lila of Honduras has issued the follow
ing statement through the American
minister:

followed between the troops evidently

President Zelaya of Nicaragua de-
