In attempting to charge up the deficit in his
Department against the magazines the Postmaster
General has done the country genuine, even If an

the necessity for thorough reorganization OF the
Postal Department He has emphasized the I'M

The Fifty-ninth Congress authorized an inves-
tgation of postal affairs, and joint commission,
headed by Senator Penrose and Representative
Overstreet, made thorough investigation of the
whole subject. As result, the Overstreet bill,
which contains many excellent recommendations,
was presented. 1t is not from guesswork that we
have concluded that the Department is In need of
radical reorganization, but from the official reports
of this Joint Congressional Postal Commission
and of the disinteresed accountants hired by 1t to
investigate the business methods of the Depart

BIG CASE IS
SETTLED BY 4
COMPROMISE
NORMAN CLARKE VS.. PENSACOLA
ELECTRIC COMPANY WAS CLOS
ED BY FRIENDLY AGREEMENT
OUTSIDE OF COURT.

One of the largest and possibly the
most interesting cases on file in the
circuit court here was that brought
by Hon. Norman Clarke, of Mobile,
against the Pensacola Electric Com
pany, the amount of damages asked
being $4,000. This was for the
death of Mrs. Clarke, when. riding
with friends in an automobile. the
car was struck by a gondola travel
ling on the Bayshore line, and the
lady.was killed. 1t was announced Of
ficially that the case had been set
tied outside of court, and the an
nouncement carried with it Yesterday
the statement that there had been a
cash consideration, but the amount
was not given. 1t was rumored how
ever, that the sum of $4,000 had been
paid over by the Electric Company,
outside of the attorneys fees.
The case was settled some time ago
and to the evident satisfaction of all
parties concerned. This was the ONLY
action brought as result of the acct
dent, but some other members of the
automobile party were badly hurt and
one lady suffered the loss of fingers
eiother by being crushed off entirely
or of being so badly mangled that

PENSACOLA YACHT AND MOTOR
BOAT CLUB WILL HOLD GREAT
AND CITIZENS ALIKE.

One of the features of the Mardi
Gras celebration will be the boat race
which is now in course of active pre-
paration by the Pensacola Yacht and
Motor oBat Club. There are going
to be hundreds of motor boat enthusi-
asts In Pensacola on the day the Car
nival King arrives and in the after
noon of the same day the races will
be held, providing the weather is
suspicious for outdoor sports. The
boat club is not leaving anything IN
done TO make the regatta one of the
features of the Carnival season that
will make it attractive and at the
same time interesting to all alike.
Handicaps will be given later. in the
week. A course has been marked out
and ample notice will be issued in
plenty of time so that all the boats
in the club will have plenty of op-
portunity to make the run over mile
handicap course and receive what
ever time allowance is proper. I'm
less there is a change in the present
sentiment, there will be seen the
greatest show of motor boats ever
seen in any bay on the Gulf coast.
If it be found impossible on any day
during the latter part of the week to
give the handicap tests, the course
will be marked out and runs made
over it on Sunday next. This is a
feature necessitated, because eff the

WATCHED FOR
COMET IN THE
WESTERN SKY
MANY EYES SCANNED HEAVENS
FOR UNUSUAL SIGHT, BUT
HAZE PREVENTED NEW DIS
coVERY FROM BEING SEEN.

Many Pensacola people strained
their eyes at dusk last evening in
scanning the heavens in the western
skies for sight of that new comet
which was reported Friday by The
Journal, and which has been attract
ing attention all over the country.
There was a heavy haze in the west
early last night, and although Venus,
the brilliant evening star, was plain
~ visible, there was nothing to be
seen of the comet, at least to many
in the city. I've watched from $50
o'clock, but l can't see anything of
your old comet" gentleman tele-
phoned at o'clock last night. A ship
captain, however, said last night L. at
he watched the strange star in the
heavens in the very early part of the
evening" but something suddenly OBJ
scured it, and he believed that ris-
ing cloud cut off the view He said
that he had seen it on Friday night
and had made it a nightly diversion
to see if it really was a comet He
said that it appeared to be receding
instead of coming nearer, and that it
appeared to be describing a sort of
half circle in the skies, rising in the
extreme northeast and disappearing
in the southwest, visible usually about
thirty minutes.
Many towns in Florida, Georgia and
Alabama are reporting sight of the
comet. One of Atlanta's papers Sun,
day had a great feature story of 1t,
saying that it belonged to Atlanta by
right of discovery, for citizen had
found it swinging about in space late
Saturday evening. 1t was seen in
Pensacola on Friday night, and there
fore by operation of the rule that to
the finder belongs the object found, it
is Pensacola's private property.
If the heavens are clear of haze,
the time to witness the rise of the
comet is between 5:45 and els
o'clock this evening. Locate the bright
evening star, Venus, and then search
little south-southwest, as the sailor
men say, and If your eye-sight is good
the comet will be observed in all it's
brilliancy. The early moon inter-
feres, according to one observer, with
it's original brilliancy.
