THEATERs CAN KEEP OPEN
SUNDAYS IN PENSACOLA

Pensacola, Fla.-There are no laws
in Pensacola TO prevent moving pic.
lures being exhibited or vaudeville
produced and admission charged to
witness such exhibitions on the Sab.
bath. according to a decision of Re.
cordcr Johnson, who passed upon the
case Of the management OF the Bijou
theater, arrested on the charge OF
opening the place of amusement and
selling tickets OF admission. II Is
understood the case was a test one,
attorneys advising the theater mana
ger that in their opinion no fine could
be imposed. When the place opened
the police searched the ordinance
book for a measure TO cover Il, but
found none excepting keeping open
store for profit" The arrest was
made on this charge, but the recor-
der, I'm rendering a decision, stated
that he would not class a theater as
a store and therefore discharged the
defendant. Whether or not the coun.
~ oflici0ls will take a hand Is un-
known. Jhe state has a very strict
law against amusements OF any kind
where an admission fee is charged
but IL is the belief that the manager
OF the place, In opening up. did so
with a view OF defeating even the
state law I'm the courts.

be much larger than those stated

third Of l per cent Of the foreign
trade OF the United States was con.
Quoted through Florida points in 1890.

and one-fifth per cent of 1t went
through Florida ports-about three
times as large a proportion as came
through the ports Of this state nine

SURVEYING WATERWAY ROUTE
FROM PENSACOLA TO MOBILE

Pensacola, Fla.-Government sur
veyors, following out instructions to
survey a waterway route from Pensa-
cola to Mobile, reached Bayou Chico,
opening into Pensacola bay, and with
in week will complete the work,
on which they have been engaged for
the past two months. This route,
should an appropriation be secured to
dredge and deepen 1t. will give an
inland waterway route connecting the
two cities, which will reduce the dis
tance by rail by fully fifty miles. The
engineers plan the deep channel to
pass from Pensacola bay, through
Bayou Chico. the Big lagoon, Perdido
bay and tributaries TO Bon Seceur,
thence into Mobile bay. Deep wa
ter already exists along much of this
route, and with suction dredges a wa
terway sufficient to accommodate
boats of good size could be secured
within two years.
