Change of Acts at Opera House.

Change of Acts at Opera House.
The first half OF the first week of the
vaudeville season at the opera house
closed with last nights performance,
and it may be said without fear of
contradiction that Pensacolians have
had an opportunity of witnessing the
best vaudeville ever seen in this city.
Beginning with the matinee this af-
ternoon the program will be changed
and seven large new acts will come
here from Mobile. These acts are
said to be unusually attractive ones
and the Mobile Register had the fol-
lowing comment about them:
The Mobile Theatre opened the sea-
son with two performances Monday to
good business, the attraction being one
of the best vaudeville bills that has
been presented in Mobile in a long
time, the programme including eight
numbers in addition to the orchestral
overture. The bill opened with Eary

General Manager Lillard, of the In

day afternoon that he had appointed
a parade committee to arrange for the
trades display float for the opening of
the fair. The committee is composed
of the following well known business
men, which assures the pubic that the
parade will be success: Alba H.
Warren. George H. Hervey and Jas. c.

The committee will get right to work
toward arousing the interest of the
business men and enlisting their sup
port in this matter, which is consid-
cred one of the most important fea-
lures of the fair, since the first i'm

The Road Law.
Mr.. Editor:

Mr.. Editor:
AS mauy are unfamiliar with the
plan of the proposed Special Road
District, now under consideration,
will you kindly publish this brief
explanation:
The Missouria Legislature recent
ly enacted law under which Spec
ial Road Districts may be organized
in territory where there is an incor-
porated town, said district not to
exceed s miles in length or breadth.
The district is organized by secur-
ing a petition signed by fifty tax
payers in the district, the County
Court then orders an election and
if a majority of the voters are in
favor of, the district the Town
Council of Monroe City together
with the County Court of Monroe
County appoint three Road Com
miSsioners, residing in the special
district.
To this Commission the County
Court is required to pay over all
money collected for road purposes
in the district, together with the
saloon and billiard hall licenses. and
this Commission will take charge of
all roads in the district, all road
tools now belonging to said district
and will collect all poll taxes,
After the district is formed in
Monroe County it can, at once be
extended into Rails and Marion
Counties, and one additional Com,
missioner will be appointed from
thar part of the district in each
county

Monroe County, but for the past
few years a resident Of Hunnewell,
died at his home in that village last

years of age and had been in poor
health for some time
He was born in Augusta County,
Va. and came to Missouri when a
young man, settling near Deer
Creek church in the north part of
the county, where during his long
residence, he was esteemed as an
honorable christian gentleman.
The remains were buried at the
Deer Creek cemetery on Monday
He leaves several children and
many friends, to mourn the loss OF
one who was an honor to his family

the formation of this district is that
all money collected for road taxes
in the district will be turned over
to and expended by the Board of
Road Commissioners instead of be-
ing expended by the County Court
as formerly.
Other advantages are:
/. The Special District will get
all the money collected for road
taxes from the two railroads run
ming through the district.
2. The roads will be under one
management instead ofin the hands
of several different overseerS all
working on a different plan.
3. Our road money will be kept
at home and used on roads easy Of
construction, and not scattered over
the counties and used in the cutting
down of heavy grades and the erec-
ton of expensive bridges. This in
itself ought to justify the new plan
4. A large saving will be made
in the matter of tools, implements,
material and labor by having all
the roads under one management.
S. There is a strong probability
that the Road Commission can Sc
cure an appropriation from the
State Highway Fund Doubling any
amount the Commission may spend
on rock roads. y
6. 1t separates the road manage
ment from politics.
Some have opposed the forming
of the district in the belief that ii
will increase taxation. The only
way the taxes can be increased fol
road purposes is at ali election held
for that purpose just as now, II
the people want more money fol
roads they must vote it just as an
additional levy of IS cents was
voted in Marion County last yeaI
before this district was contemplate
ed. 1t is very likely that the people
will vote more money for road pur'
poses in the near future whether
this district is formed or not, as
they wont put up with the roads
we now have much LONGER, and we
should get ourselves in shape to GET
the benefit of it.
In brief, the formation of thi;
district is a progressive step in thC
management Of roads and the ad
ministration of road funds and not
an attempt to increase taxation.
These Special Districts are helm
formed around all the progressive
towns in the State and whenev e
organized the residents are enthu
siastic over the benefits received.

GOOD ROADS
Enthusiastic Meeting Monday After
noon Arranging to Form Spec
ial Road sDistrict.

There is one thing which all con-
cede is necessary for the prosperity
of any community aud that one
thing is good roads. While there
are many miles of gravel roads
leading into Monroe City our peo-
pie realize the necessity for more
and even better roads. With this
in view a call was made for a meet
ing at the Council room last Mon
day afternoon. A large number of
enthusiastic Good Roads" people
were present. M. B. Proctor, one of
the most enthusiastic good roads
men of this vicinity explained the
object of the meeting. Temporary
officers we're elected as follows: M.
B. Proctor, president and W, j.
Rouse, secretary. Several citizens
made talks on this all important
subject and on motion it was decid-
ed to ask for vote on district to
be formed in Monroe County as fol-
lows beginning at the northeast
corner of Monroe County running
five miles west, thence four miles
south, thence five miles east, thence
north to the point of beginning.
A petition asking the County Court
to call a special election in this ter
ritory, 1t is the object to increase
the district in Marion and Rails
Counties until the district is eight
miles square. Then the Special
Commissioner will have direct
charge of the monies. In this way
our roads will be greatly improved
and all realize at this time that
there is plenty of room for improve
ment and that good roads are a
necessity. Every voter should
heartily support the proposition
when it is submitted and in the
meantime heartily boost good
roads Il.

Death of Judge Samuel North.
Judge Samuel North died at his
home in Perry, Tuesday. Judge
North had been in rather poor
health for some time but recently
became worse and failed rapidly un-
til the end. The remains were
buried at Perry today (Thursday)
Judge North was for many years
a citizen of Monroe City and was
well and favorably known by all the
old citizens. He held the Office OF
Street Commissioner one term and
was a member of the City Council
one or more terms. He was elect,
ed Mayor of Monroe City six times
but resigned the office before the
sixth term expired. He removed
to Rails county near Perry and held
the Office of County Judge from the
Western District of Rails county
His many friends in this city were
shocked to hear of his death as il
supposed that on account of his
rugged constitution he could bt
able to finally overcome his ailmen
but disease had so fastened upoI
him that medical attention anC
good nursing failed to relieve hi
suffering. Judge North was about
65 years of age and leaves a wife
