JUDGE LYLES
BOOSTS CITY
SAYS fT IS ONE OF THE BEST HE
HAS VISITED IN THE SOUTH IN
MANY YEARS, AND Is IMMENSE
LY PLEASED.

Judge w. W. Lyles, who is to off.
cate at the Kupfrian track during the
racing meet, reached the city yester'
day from Tampa, and took apartments
at the San Carlos.
You have one of the prettiest and
most enterprising cities that I have
visited in many years. said Judge
Lyles to Journal representative last
night. Il am not handing Tampa a
knock" in making the statement, but
you have a much better city here than
Tampa. There is a spirit of progress
iveness here which / have missed
while in Tampa. You people seem to
have spirit about you, even more so
than in some of the larger cities, and
it reminds me good deal OF the west
and north.
81 believe the racing meet here will
prove a big success. The people here
seem interested, and it is close enough
to New Orleans and other points to
draw large crowds"

A DESERVED TRIBUTE
TO PERCY S. HAYES 4

The following tribute to Percy S.
Hayes, written by Uncle Joe Dixon, in
the Live Oak Democrat, is not only
true, but it is as thoroughly deserved
as it is truthful:
Percy S. Hayes, managing editor of
The Pensacola Journal, was called by
wire the other day to Macon, Miss,
where his mother lay dying, and as he
had had no previous notice that she
was dangerously i'll, the shock of sur
prise gave an added pang to the grief
OF the devoted son. He got to Macon
just in time to see his mother die, and
after brief stay there returned to his
duties in Pensacola. His many friends
on the Florida press sincerely sympa-
thize with him in the loss of the best
friend he ever had or ever will have.
Percy Hayes is not SO widely known
among newspaper men In Florida as a
good many others who are not his
equals in either professional or per-
sonal merit. He is remarkable
young man and has won his way to
his present high place in the jour
nalism of this state by hard work and
exceptional capacity, without any ex-
traneous aid whatever. He has the
newspaper faculty in rare degree, and
his Judgment is almost infallible in
knowing what to put in and what to
keep out of a paper. He is "glutton
for work. and can turn out copy with
marvellous rapidity. He never wrote
an ornate sentence in his life and
never will, but he covers every point
in what he writes about, and makes
himself so plain that any kind of
reader can clearly comprehend his
meaning. Duty to the paper he serves
is the inspiration of his work, whether
humping the keys of a typewriter,
shouting through a telephone, editing
telegraph, writing Scare-heads, or Ia
boriously wading through the great
masses of matter from many sources
upon which he must sit in judgment;
and in the daily and efficient discharge
of this duty his unselfish self-efface-
ment and tactful consideration for
others are as rare as they are ad-
mirable. A "way-up" newspaper man,
without frills, is Percy Hayes, modest
as he. is meritorious, honest as the
sun and irreproachable in his habits,
and when Frank Mayes goes home at
night he can say his prayers and drop
into restful sleep with the soothing
consciousness that everything is all
right down at the office, for Hayes is
on the job"

Hobson
In Demand.

The Richmond Virginian OF recent
Issue says of the Hero of the Merri-
mac from Alabama:
Congressman Richmond Pearson Hob
son recently made temperance ad-
dress at Salisbury. Md, and the whole
town turned out to hear him. He was
slated to speak at the Methodist
Church, South, but long before time
for the speech to begin it was found
that the church would not hold half Of
the people, and the committee in
charge decided to change the meeting
to the opera house. The people then
rushed there, and IL was filled to the
doors and hundreds of people stood
on the streets waiting. The commit
tee then changed his address from the
courthouse steps, so that the people
could occupy the spacious lawn. 1t IS
thought that 5000 people heard him.
II is not surprising that he had such
a rush. 1t was conceded that his tenn.
perance address in Richmond was one
of the ablest and most convincing
ever heard in this city. The Vir-
gilman is still receiving requests for
copies Of the paper in which the adj
dress was reported. Hobson is a
power for temperance and he Is put
ting his talents to good use.
Whatever may be said OF Mr.. Hob
sons ideas on greater navy, no man
will question his ability as an orator.
His temperance lecture is one of the
greatest ever prepared. Mr.. Hobson
does not offend those who disagree
with him on the liquor question. pitch
ing his remarks on high and states
manlike plane at all times. He omits
the usual sentimental flights of the
average temperance orator and deals
with the subject as great question
OF science and state. He is a power
full reasoner and persuasive in his die
ton. He is worth going to hear to
anyone who enjoys an intellectual
treat.

FIVE TORPEDO
DESTROyERS IN
HARBOR TODAY
FASTEST AND NEWEST VESSELS
OF DESTROYER TYPE COME
FOR LONG STAY IN PENSACOLA,
FOR MANEUvERS.

Preceded by the parent ship. the
auxiliary cruiser Dixie, the five torpe-
do boat destroyers composing the
seventh torpedo division of the Allan
tic Torpedo Fleet, arrived off the Pen
sacola Navy Yard late yesterday af'
ternoon. The Dixie, tender to the
fleet, arrived off the bar early in the
morning and took anchorage off the
navy yard. Later in the day the de-
stroyers hustled into port, coming
from Key West. They are under
command of Lieut. Commander Geo.
c. Day, and will spend some weeks
in port.
The five boats are the swiftest of
their type in the United States navy,
or many other navies for that mat
ter. They have but recently been
commissioned, and Pensacola harbor
will be their first for maneuvers.
The feet consits of the following:
THE VESSELS.
Smith (fiagboat), Lieut.-Commander
George G. Day.
Flusser. Lieut.-Commander James
P. Morton.
Lamson, Lieut.-Commander John
Nee. Luby.
Preston. Lieut. Commander David
+. BOYD.
Reid, Lieut.. Commander John S.
Doddridge.
Dixie Gender to feet, Lieut.. Paul
Foley.
With the cruiser Montgomery,
which is engaged in torpedo expert
mental and instruction duty, there are
now seven naval vessels in port. The
torpedo fleet consists Of the vessels
representing the latest type of the
naval designing, all of -hem having
the celebrated turbine engines which
are capable of devolping a speed of
the boats of more than thirty knots,
which is a movement much faster
than the average trains on the local
divisions move generally. On her
trial the Flusser was especially swift,
having exceeded the 30-knot limit by
good margin.
The Dixie is one of the auxiliary
cruisers assigned for fleet tender
duty. Although old in service, the
vessel gives good account of herself
in push, but her speed is not more
than fifteen knots.
The boats are here for maneuvers.
Coal will be taken first and then the
vessels will be ready for practice
in any manner designed for them.
1t is possible that some o. them may
be hooked up" when coming to or
leaving the city, and people will have
an opportunity of seeing them at their
best. The turbine engines will form
quite an interesting attraction for
those of a mechanical turn of mind.

Says The Pensacola Journal: "They

such compassion on the conquered
ruler" Generous, nothing! the demo-
Gratis were so desperately ungenerous
that they even forgot to take care of
themselves In their eagerness to
snatch the stump of Cuban stout
from Uncle Joe's mouth
How do you explain the attitude or
Leader Clark following the stripping
of Uncle Joe OF his power? He stated,
you know, that there was no desire on
the part of the democrats to GUST
Cannon as speaker-they merely
sought to soften his iron grip on the
house. OF course the democrats voted
sohdly for the Burleson resolution az
ter 1t was offered, but they did so
with some reluctance.
