at Bijou Theatre Today.
What has the reputation Of being the
greatest motion picture ever presented
to the American people will be shown
at the Bijou theatre today. The she'll
ing of the San Marcos, formerly the
battleship Texas, is the title of this
Vitagraph masterpiece.
The Texas took nine years to build
but the New Hampshire destroyed 1t
in ten minutes.
The showing of this picture here will
give Pensacolians an opportunity to
see the most remarkable and instruc-
tive naval picture ever made.
The historic war vessel Texas which
bore the brunt of the naval battle at
Santiago, in the Spanish-American
war, was sacrificed March %, on lower
Chesapeake bay.
Every detail of the work of loading,
reloading, firing and spotting, etc, on
the warship New Hampshire is shown,
every shot is distinctly seen as it
strikes the water after passing through
the helpless Texas, throwing sprays of
water four hundred feet high and great
sky-scraping volumes of smoke when

produce the impression of wisdom
on the minds of others.
When asked to account for a diff
cult matter we have an explanation
ready, and, If fairly plausible, it serves
our purpose, even though not striking
into the marrow of the question.
A few weeks ago there occurred at

killed and many times that number in

The disaster has been, in rather an

gineer. who. fortunately for himself,
perhaps, was among the killed.

his widow says. Yes, because that is
the way Of getting the matter off our
hands. 1t lies so near the surface Of
things to charge 1t to him that only
a minimum OF brain work is required
in order to make that disposition OF
the matter.
But apparent causes of disaster are
exceedingly likely to have real causes
lying back of them. Why did the en-
gineer run over that switch at the
rate OF so miles an hour. when the
only permissible rate was Is miles?
He did not certainly do 1t for the
amusement Of the thing. He knew. as
well as any one. what he was doing
and the risk involved in the speed that
he was making.
