BIG FISH ARE
BROUGHT IN BY
NEW SCHOONER
WEIGHING MORE THAN
ONE HUNDRED AND ONE WEIGH
ING TWO HUNDRED POUNDS
ARE UNLOADED AT FISH HOUSE

About nine thousand pounds of red
snappers were landed here from the
new schooner John Il. Keen. which
arrived yesterday after d lsng and
evenUuI trip from the New England
coast TO her new home in Southern
waters The schooner has been pur-
chased by the Saunders Fish company
End yesterday afternoon rounded up at
the docks and discharged the first
catch for the local house. Before
coming to Pensacola from the New
England home, the schooner made a
very profitable trip to the southern
snapper banks, and came in with
plenty Of the deep sea beauties.
In addition TO the snappers and a
few grOupeTs. the schooner UniOadeG
some of the largest WaTsaWs that have
ever been received at the local fish
houses. Four of them weighed exactly
145 pounds each. One weighed $50
pounds, and the largest weighed 235
pounds. All were taken into the fish
house and stored in the ice boxes.
A large number of visitors were on
the wharf when the schooner came up
the bay. Many visitors were attracted
there by the story in yesterdays jour
nal concerning the lively movement in
the exporting business at Pensacola,
but when the new schooner arrived,
their attention was wholly occupied in
seeing the big fish hauled out of the
vessel. a hook having been inserted
into the mouth of each of the big
ones and two sturdy fishermen hauled
away. Many EXPLANATIONS of wonder
came from people on the wahrf
who had never witnessed such a sight
in the past.
The vessel passed through various
stages of weather. From the region
Of icebergs to the balmy tropics, the
seamen enjoyed their long trip. A
typical New England crew is aboard,
and most of them will remain at Pen
sacOIa, to fish out of this port.

USING SURPLUS SAND TO
VERY FINE ADVANTAGE

Since the stone curbing has been
placed on both sides of the two paved
drivewayS on either side of Garden
street, water has found a settling
place between the curbS and has been
standing for several days on account
of no outlet Yesterday, however.
bright idea was evolved in the brain
of someone. The brick paving has
advanced rapidly northwaTd on Alca-
niz street from Government street and
last night had been completed to the
south side of the Garden street inter
section. The grade there is some
feet below the surface of the street,
nCceSSitating the removal of a great
deal of sand. This is hauled by teams
and is being used to build up the cen
tire Of Garden street westward from
TarragOna street to PalafOX. The i'm
provement will be better noticed once
the grass plots are transformed into
lasting beauty spots after the paving
is completed.

SURVEYING FOR
AN INLAND CANAL
Special to the Journal.

Sanborn. Fla. Dec. 2S-Capt W. L.
SeeIey, engineer in charge, with his
corps Of five engineers and crew Of
twenty men. have completed the sur
vey for the inland canal TO Ocklocknee
river, a distance of one hundred and
ninety-seven miles.
This is for the canal that has been
agitated from Jacksonville to Cara
belle, and may be extended to New
Orleans.
Crooked river is now being sur
veyed- the sOundings taken and all the
worst bends Will be surveyed for cut
offs, as some of them viii save
mile by cutting one hundred yards
and some less. As the writer ran
beats on this stream for ten years. he
knows whereof he speaks. Once a
passenger said. This river has the
right name" We agreed with hip,
as anyone that goes through It would
know that i was crooked

and this bay is the highest country

very fertile and all around It is very

tat.On. The canal would supply ample
transportation for the timber and farm
products. These lands are very pro
ductivo. and a large quantity OF gov
e-uuCuJ lands are situated on the pro-
posed line of the canal, and would De

The plan is 70 cut this canal

ticaIIv 10 work and the Strengthening
of Crooked river will require as large

CIVIC LEAGUE
PREPARING FOR
THE PAPER BALL
UNIQUE AND PLEASING ENTER
TAINMENT WILL BE GIVEN IN
PENSACOLA AND PROMISES TO
MAKE A BIG HIT.

The ladies composing the Civic
League are among the busiest in the
city today. Their every effort is bent
toward the perfection of plans for the
most unique and pleasing entertain
ment ever projected for Pensacola
the Paper Ball To produce the pic
ruTesque, well balanced stage setting,
the smooth performance they propose
presenting requires training and
steady application Of those behind the
scene.
The costumes used in this ball are
under construction in Atlanta by the
same mOdiste who designed and exc
cUted those used by the Atlantans IN
der Prof Morris when he gave the
Reilly there. They are beautiful in
effect and handsome, and Will vie with
those of costly -brOcades and satins-
The crepe paper has great pOssibili-
ties under capable handling. and the
texture is especially adapted to the
crisp, airy costume associated in the
mind with the dance
In the Barn Dance. the combination
of rural red and simple door-yard
flower costume will produce an erect
dear to the heart-Our grandmOtheT's
fragrant garden, with the langUTOUs
poppy, the gaUdy suntiower faithfully
following the sun, the tall red rooster
proudly scratching for the latest bid
die acquisition to the kitchen garden,
and the milkmaids will all be there,
the natural tenants of the garden.
The boys representing the roosters,
in age ranging from six to thirteen,
Will wear a realistic costume with
feathers, wings and all, and cap with
peak projecting like the ROSTERS bill
We believe these boys, as well as the
audience will enjoy these costumes.
Their partners in this dance, girls OF
the same age, will wear the miIkmaid
costume, and We vOuCh for them the
p:Overbial charm of the milkmaid.
Mingled with these will be the peoples
and sunfOweTs, boys and girls from
fourteen to eighteen years old, adding
their charm, and it will not require
very great effort of the imagination to
hear the hum of the bunble-bee and
the buzz of the lazy JunebU yhizzing
by our ear; nor a very far-sigtJcd eye
to see the blazing dazzle of an August
sun down the old red clay road while
We listen to the bucolic strains of the
orchestra and follow the rhythmic num-
beTs OF the barn dance. The boys
twill represent sunfiOweRs in this
dance; the more graceful popy will be
represented by the girls.
Prof Morris will be here by January
3rd to inaugUrate the training tor
these dances and it is most urgently
requested and most necessary to the
success of the entertainment that
each lady assistant TO Prof Morris
shall have her full quota Of dancers
Il
time The TeheaTsals will then begin
and the social feature, one dear to
the young always, Of these rehearSaIs.
will insure the regular attendance OF
the participants during the entire
time
