YORK POSITION
Is HEAVILY INTERESTED IN
HAWLEY ROADS AND MAY RE-
TIRE IN ORDER TO GIVE ALL
HIS TIME TO THEIR DEMANDS.

People who know Theodore P.
Shonts, who has winter home and
plenty of other property in Baldwin
county, Alabama. will be interested
in the following New York dis
patch:
1T was reported in financial cir
cles that Theodore P. Shonts, presi-
dent of the Interborough Rapid Tran
sit company, operating Il and sub
way lines, and of the PETERBOROUGH
Metropolitan company, the holding
concern of the Manhattan Traction
Syndicate, will retire Feb. LIST. Al
though Mr.. Shonts issued a denial,
the report is generally credited, as
Mr.. Shonts's managerial interest in
the Hawley railroads of the middle
West have become very extensive.
''Well-founded information names G.
H. Ackert, at present vice-president
land general manager of the Southern
railway, as Mr.. Shonts's successor
Mr.. Ackert is accounted one of the
best executive railroad men in the
country. The position which Mr..
Shonts is about to vacate pays close
to 100000 a year in salary and syn
dictate participations.
THE retirement of Mr.. Shonts will,
it is believed, mark a new era in
transportation exploitation in this
city 1t is said to be the intention
iof the Interborough to reach out af-
ter new subway lines under different
methods of advancement than those
Mr. Shonts has pursued. Under
ihe administration of Mr.. Shonts the
marlborough has been pretty general
ly on antagonistic terms with the city
administration and the public service
commission.
"Mr. Shonts got his railroad train
ing in the West and is one of the
prominent railroad managers of the
country. In recent years he has been
much in the public eye by reason Of
his prominence in the work of start
ing the Panama canal and his retire
ment from that position to come to
New York with Paul Morton and take
charge of Thomas f. Ryan's transpor-
tation interests.
'Mr. Shonts is heavily interested
with Edwin Hawley. the railroad ac-
cumulator, and is president of the
Minneapolis and st. Louis, the Glover
Leaf and other Hawley roads. When
he lays down the management of the
marlborough Mr.. Shonts will IN
doubtedly become the general man.

POLICE PROFESS IGNORANCE OF
DE JANON GIRLS WHEREABOUT
BY Associated Press.

New York, Jan. IF Roberta de
Janon, the young Philadelphia heiress,
and Ferdinand Cohen, the waiter, who
strangely disappeared at the same
time, have been found in this city, as
reported, the police profess ignorance
of the fact. Ferdinand de Janon, faith
er of the girl, today declared that so
far as he knew his daughter and the
waiter had not been found
The report that Roberta de Janon
had been found was based on an al
legged long-distance telephone COM
which Ferdinand de Janon
is said to have had with Robert
Buist, the wealthy grandfather of the
girl, in Philadelphia. In this COM
the father, is reported to
have informed the grandfather that
Roberta had been found and that he
expected the arrest of the waiter to-
morrow. Mr.. de Janon denies that
there was such telephone commune
cation.

Mr.. West Heads Santa
Rosa's Model Farm.

Quite properly, the craftsmanship of
the directors OF Santa Rosa's new
agricultural school and demonstration
farm will be held by Mr.. T. f. West,
the Milton lawyer with farm as a
pleasureable side issue, who early saw
the advantages to be derived from this
combination and by whose initiative
more than that of any other man the
school and farm were made possible.
The $4,000 is nearly all raised and
work will be started within few
weeks. Santa Rosa's public-spirited
men have done well. They raised the
needed money in something like five
or six weeks and they did not have to
go outside their county's boundaries
for any of it.
The Santa Rosa Star gave the
school-and-farm project a great deal
of space and the editor of the Star,
Mr.. d. H. Allen, did valuable personal
work, but the Star generously says
The Pensacola Journal helped as much
as anything. We early saw the prac-
teal worth Of the movement for better
farming in Santa Rosa and said as
many good words as We could. If
they helped, as Brother Aliens paper
maintains they did, we are heartily
glad that aid was extended and we
congratulate our Santa Rosa neighbors
on the era of modern farming so mani
testify ahead.

MEETING JAN. IA.

Milton, Jan. 1.-THE following gen.
tlemen gathered at T. F. Vests Office
Tuesday evening to devise ways and
means to put into active operation the
proposed agricultural school and
demonstration farm for Santa Rosa
county, for which a nice sum of money
has already been subscribed:

Harvey, C. H. Simpson, d. H. Allen.
The meeting was called to order by
Hon. 7. F. West and the object of the
gathering stated
temporary organization was then
effected by the nomination and cleo
ton of the following officers: 7. F.
West, chairman; c. H. Simpson, sec
rotary.
Mr.. West suggested that the pro-
posed farm be incorporated and stock
company formed capitalized in the
sum of $4,000. BY this means, he
pointed out, that if further funds were
needed, stock could be sold to anyone
who felt an interest in keeping the
farm in operation.
Mr. Tomasello thought it would be
proper to organize as suggested by Mr..
West.
Mr. Poore favored the proposed plan
of organization
Mr.. Harvey also favored the scheme,
and suggested that perhaps in a few
years the farm might be so managed
as to become self-sustaining.
|. Mr.. Simpson thought the organiZa
ton should be made permanent one
and rup from year to year to keep
fully abreast with all the advances in
the science of agriculture.
Mr.. Collins made a motion to make
tire organization a permanent one.
The motion was seconded by Mr..
Rosasco.
The motion was then put and car
ricd and the following gentlemen
elected to form the organization:
c. H. Simpson, president.

tended The Pensacola Journal and

Peep Into the Future.

The Pensacola Journal takes a peep
into the future and says: Thirty
Georgia farmers, supposed to be men
of moderate means, bought thirty
Christmas automobiles at $1,000 each
from the Savannah agent of a Chicago
factory. That's pretty good for the
wealthy and intelligent Peachtree State
but model farms over that way have
taught the art of making farming
profitable through scientifically Geo.
nomical methods. When we get our
model farms in all the best Florida
farming counties the Florida automo-
bile colony among the states farmers
will step up beside that of good cid
Georgia" When the whole state of
Florida, or most of it, is gridironed
with good roads and farmers tele-
phone lines, so that the farmer may
be able to learn the prices offered for
his products and choose the best time
for sending them to market, all with
out leaving home, then take them to
shipping or selling point over a road
which allows him to carry maximum
load, when he decides to market those
products, then the Florida farmer or
fruit grower will be able to buy an
automobile, if he wishes one.-Times-

OF the business done through the

keeps up its growth in respect to ship

was $4,17S,352. And the indications
are that 1910 will beat out even this
