"The Lion And the Mouse" by
Charles Klein. author Of THE Third
Degree is a play of American social
and financial conditions, which Henry
B. Harris will present here in few
days. It has been preceded with the
strongest endorsements which any
drama has received from the Ameri-
can press for a great many years. The
Intensity and truthfulness with which
Mr. Klein has pictured the evil in
auence of money power on the social
and political phases Of life caused a
perfect stampede for the Lyceum
Theatre, New York, where the play
ran for three full years. In every
other city where the play has been
given its reception has been of the
most cordial character and local play
goers are awaiting it with the assur-

Proceeding to his topic Secretary

hate than that which the scots cher

one of the main sources of her great

Local observation Of Labor Day was
on a grand scale yesterday and in the
afternoon business houses closed
their doors and employer and en-
ploye sought out amusements at the
several suburban resorts, all enjoy
ing to the fullest the numerous at
fractions offered. The baseball games
at the two diamonds at Palmetto
Beach and Magnolia Bluff were
sought out by the largest number OF
people, the Magnolia Bluff crowd ex-
ceeding in numbers by hundreds any
gathering for like attractions ever
given. In addition to hundreds car
ried on the electric cars, scores or
automobiles and other kinds Of We
hic1eS carried many people, the autos
having been parked in a half circle
commanding a fine view of the game.
Not only the national offices, but
the county and city offices closed w
at noon, a notice appearing early in
the day on the door at the city hall
giving notice that all offices therein
would close at noon. The mayor and
other officials were enthusiastic wit
nesses of the Pensacola Geneva teams
contest at Magnolia Bluff.
The two leading attractions OF the
day were the picnics at Palmetto
Beach, given by the w. o. w. lodges,
and at Magnolia Bluff, managed by
and under the auspices Of the labor
organizations. AS stated, both were
largely attended, but other points of
interest likewise drew large numbers.
More than two hundred Pensacola
people spent Labor Day either in
New Orleans or Mobile, taking ad-
vantage of the cheap rate 2-day ex-
cursion which left here Sunday morn
ing for those cities. Those people
will reach home on a special train
some time this afternoon.

less beach and surf was attractive to
many, while pleasure parties in motor
boats were many on the bay during
the afternoon.
The double header baseball game
at Palmetto Beach resulted as fol-
lows: Warrington Juniors 16, Eagles
1; Twentieth Company 8, Sacred
Hearts 3.
At Magnolia Bluff the game was
played between the fast Pensacolas
and the Geneva team, the score being
6 20 ] in favor of the locals.
At Palmetto Beach, J. Seeger, the
FIAT WoOdman," won the foot race.
At both places delightful music was
furnished for dancing and such en-
jOyment was participated in by many
until midnight.
The amateur performance last
night at Palmetto Beach proved to be
one of the enjoyable events of the
day. The first prize was awarded to
the Misses Wilkerson, the second to
the Misses Carroll and the third to
A. Noteworthy.
