Pensacola Always in Line.

Speaking Of candidates for congress
man at large, what state could ask for
a more creditable representative IN
congress than Hon. T. A. Jennings, Of
Pensacola, would make? Mr.. Jennings
holds views on some matters Of local
state interest contrary to those held
by a large number Of his fellow citi-
zens, but he Is one Of the big, broad
men Of Florida Just the same. We
can think Of no man who Is better
equipped for this important post Of
honor and service. We do OF know
that Mr. Jennings would be willing TO
lay down the active management OF
his large business interests for a po-
litical career. We are inclined to
think that he would not, but the state
would be the gamer IL he were sent a S
one Of our representatives in the ma
tional congress.-Starke Telegraph.

DAM HALF DONE.
Good Progress Being Made on
River improvements.

Contractor E. H. Hester is making
good progress with the bridge piers
and dam at Second street. The work
is about half done. The pier on the
West side and the 20 foot wing and
the dam to the center of the stream
have been finished. On Thursday
the water was turned through the
floodgate opening in the finished
half and the other part of the stream
was damned yesterday and the ex-
cavation for the last pier and wing
is being made. There is not much eX-
cavating to do for the dam, as the riv-
er bed is solid rock. By the time the
excavation is done the forms can be
removed from the concrete and work
begun on the last half. The piers
are to be ready in time for the iron
bridge to be erected by Nov. 20.
The retaining embankment along
the lime kiln property. 364 feet, has
b zen completed and the river will next
be given a thorough cleaning. 1t
will be ready to catch the December
rains and there will be a mile of wa
ter 40 to so feet wide and from 10
feet to A feet deep.
All opposition to the improvement
seems to have disappeared and the
public is taking a lively interest in
the work,

began to whir and the wheels began
to turn, the biplane running upon
the ground with increasing speed un
til it had gone about 300 feet when
it gradually left the earth and soar
ed away as gracefully as a bird.
Rising 400 or 500 feet in the air it
breasted the wind for half a mile,
circled to the South as far as the
lower end of the big farm, turned
eastward over the pike and back 20
the starting point, alighting with
the ease of bird upon the starting
place. 1t was the first flight of an
airship ever seen in Hopkinsville and
it was a great success.
The second fight, was made at
four o'clock and was repetition of
the first, except that the aviator
went 1900 feet high, made a much
wider circuit and remained up longer,
probably Is minutes.
Yesterday the weather was still
cold but there was not so much wind,
and all weather conditions were
more favorable.
The program embraced thr Z e
flights each by Ward and Lockwood ,
one double flight with a race be-
tween the two biplenes.
All of the banks closed yesterday
during the flights and the schools
turned out.
The first flight was made by Ward
about two O'Clock and he covered
about the same territory as the day
before. The attendance was far
ahead of the first day and all Of the
vast crowd seemed more than pleas
ed with the performance Aside
from the discomfort to the aviator
the flights were altogether success
full.
