HANDSOME NEW
SODA FOUNTAIN
Hooton's Pharmacy Pre-
sentS Attractive Feature
for Public Approval.

A handsome new soda water foun-
tain at Hooton's Pharmacy is the lat
est evidence of business enterprise
in Pensacola. And it is a handsome
fOuntain-sOlid and beautifully pol
ished mahogany and oynx being the
chief materials in its construction.
This is a day when people are de-
handing cleanliness as they never
did before, and this fountain is built
on the most modern and most per-
feet sanitary lines. One feature of
the equipment is an automatic cleo
trio carbonator, in plain sight of the
public, which keeps the carbOnatad
water at the same pressure all of the
time and which is in itself a unique
mechanical curiosity. Fans are being
provided and some handsome chairs
and tables are in transit
The fountain is in charge of Messrs
c. a. ChiveTS and w. H. Beeland two
of the most expert soda water men
in the country. One of their special
ties will be crushed fruit drinks and

EXCITEMENT
ON PALAFOX ST.
REVOLVER DROPPED TO PAVE
MENT AND WAS DISCHARGED,
BUT NO ONE INJURED.

What seems to have been almost a
miricIe that some one was not killed
or badly hurt is in the fact that Char
lev Taylor, a colored hack driver
dropped a loaded 3S-CalibTe pistol 20
the pavement on PalafOX street IN
front of the government building yes
terday afternoon. causing the weapon
10 fire.
The street was, at the time crowd
ed with people, and some little eX-
nitement prevailed for a few minutes.
II was soon learned, however, that
the report of the gun was an acct
dent and that no one was hurt, so
the crowd dispersed.
Taylor surrendered to the police
and says that the weapon was lying
on the seat of a hack from which he
jumped and that in some manner ne
knocked it of to the pavement.

The death of Lillis S. Dean occurred
at the home of her son, George A. Dean,
in Fair Plain, Friday, March Il, '09,
aged 81 years, months, Ii days. She
was born in Vermont.
The deceased was one of the old
pioneer settlers of Eureka township,
she and her husband Asa, Dean, COM
ing from Massachusetts to Michigan in
1856 and settling on the farm where
she lived until about two years ago.
Her husband died 20 years ago and
was buried in the Otisco cemetery,
where her remains are now at rest be-
side him. She had been an invalid for
the past five years. About week ago
she was taken suddenly worse and death
followed, relieving her sufierings and
giving her the long sought for rest she
had desired.
Two years ago the old farm was sold
and she and her son moved to another
in Fair Plain. Five children remain,

There is not on gallon OF liquor sold

Mr.. Perry f. Powers, editor of the

us, II am completely convinced that

OF the business men in Cadillac as
we'll as myself are thoroughly con-

From the Prosecuting Attorney.
VIM. II. Yearnd, of Wexford coun-
ty, has just filed with the attorney
general his report for the term end
ing December 81, 1908. There were
only twenty-one cases prosecuted
during the last six months of that
year, or only about one-half OF the
number usually reported
From the Judge.
THE local option law more than
meets the expectation of the people
in both counties in my judicial dis
trict-Clinton and Gratiot counties, ="
writes Judge Kelly S. Scarf. Drunk
enness has been decreased more than
rs per cent. There is but one pris-
oner in the Clinton county jail, and
only one in the Jail in Gratiot coun-
ty, the latter serving time for viola
tions of the local option law. In
my judgment, our voters would bury
a proposition to return to the license
system"
From the Taxpayer.
Taxes in Cadillac city, now dry
are less than they have averaged for
ten years. In 1904 the tax was
$342 per 500 valuation. In 1908
the tax was 1920 per 500 valua-
ton.

ON LOCAL OPTION
(From page ~

the saloons.
At first glance Mr.. Powers said that
looked like quite wad to some, to lose
that amount, and others even feared
their taxes would be boosted sky high
to make up the deficit in order that the
county might keep the wolf from the
door, but Mr.. Powers in offsetting this
pretext for alarm said that the 10
saloons when in business were getting
in 5000, 900 a year to pay the $40, 100,
and now the point, after charging off
the $40, 100 the difference 100000 was
being spent there just the same, but
with the merchant, the baker, and
where it was doing the most good, not
only to Cadillac, but to the families Of
the men who earned it.
No mills had stopped running, bust
ness there was good and better still the
bank deposits in Cadillac city showed
an increase Of $54,1 in savings depos-
its. In every bank item there was an
increase. An instance under the old
law was cited where one liquor dealer
had turned in $500 worth of pay orders
cashed at his place. Not so now.
Illustrating further he gave figures
to show that there was very little
change in the tax rate, declaring there
were not ten taxpayers who would be
willing to return to the old plan simply
because Of the difference In taxes.
Mr.. Powers laid stress on the theory
that IL is not the loss In dollars and
cents that Is at stake, but American
manhood, character and good citizen
ship
"Civilization OF today has deoreed
that the saloon must 60, II you don't
succeed this year, il you stick to the
issue you will next" he said, "for the
open saloon in America is doomed. So
far as business is concerned, you will
be better without it,"
