Last week we animated that last Sun
day was to be "Palm Sunday and every
body has been calling us down all week
because of our ignorance on religious
matters. Really an editor has no bust.
ness with such things. However, we
have good authority for saying that the
coming Sunday is the proper "Palm
Sunday" day.
From Pioneer Express files of 1907 we
find ''No seeding done May 1st." ''May
18th, not leaf in sight,4 inches of snow
at Grand Forks Monday" In 1908, May

turned colder with snow and ice. Wheat

you happen to look at it dramatically.

The school play that is to occur at the
city hall this evening will doubtless be
of considerable interest. There are
about fifty characters represented and
many amusing and miscellaneous Incl
dents happening about a big depot for a
day are portrayed. There will be lots of
fun-and the actors are the school pu-
pills and-ours-hence they will be al
right. Better get your reserved seats
first thing this morning unless you have
already secured them.

FORMER MONTGOMERIAN DIES AT
 HIS FLORIDA HOME.
Daughter Arrived In This City Yes- steFday Morning, ana Was shock ed te Hear of Hts
 Death.

News was received in Montgomery yesterday of the death of Charles wer- ner Joseph. formerly and for many years. resident of Montgomery at his home at Clearwater, Fla.
 While the death comes as shock to his relatives and many friends. 1t Is doub1y so to his daughter, Miss Mat tie Joseph.

MAN OF BUSINESS
TALK WITH NATIONAL DEMO-
 CRATIC COMAEITTEEMAN.
Is Head of . Gigantic COnRany snd
 Prefers to Re Knewn as BuSi- sf ness Maas

4say anything about me, except that am or have been a candidate TOT Governor of Florida"
 Tn these words, Hon. T. A. Jennings of Pensacola, Fla, who spent Friday In Montgomery, made 1t known that he IS more of a bushes man than poiti- clan. Mir. Jennings came to Montgom- cry to confer with number of otner naval stores magnates concerning the sale of the D. R. Saunders Naval Stores Company to the Williams Naval Stores Company, and the transaction was cl0sed, as was told by The Adyertiser yeBterday morning. % z.
 MT. Jennings is one of the forenost citizens of Pensacola. He has large interests there and naturally he thinks Pensacola Is the one best bet or the Quif coast citlss. He is man or at- tractive personality with direct frank way of talking. Broad.snoui. dereo. erect and heavily built, with fiorid, clean -shaven face. he looks more the strong man of outdoors. the man of the wood and the field, rather than the capitalist whose duties are done in an ofF1ce building.
 Being the National Democratic Com nlftteeman for Florida, Mr. Jennings was, of course. questioned concerning politics in his State. Plainly IL was not SuDJGCt to DlS AA4ABt6
 '-some of my good friends did men tion me as a candidate for Governor last year." he said but did not run and I did not get beat"
 It had been intimated that Mir. Jen. nings had been a defeated candidate for office.
 sNo; don't say I got beat for any office. I am just a business man.
 Then the subject veered to William Jennings Bryan.
 sMr. Bryan is coming to Florida real soon." declared Mir. Jennings. If he comes to Pensacola, hope to see him. No; he is not my kinsman. You are thinking of the other fellow, Governor Jennings. I am not the Jennings"
 Mr. Jennings did not care to discuss the probability of a Statewide prohi- hilton law for Florida or other public questions. He stressed the fact that he was in Montgomery on business. He was willing to be generous with his time in taking of Pensacola and its future development as seaport. He believes in Pensacola.
 The distinguished Pensacolian re- turned to his home late Friday even ing.
