CRlTiCiSE CARNEG IEPENSION
President Taft May Not Accept iron.
masters Bounty.

President Taft May Not Accept iron
masters Bounty.
Washington, Nov. 23.-While Presi
dent Taft has not commented publicly
on the Carnegie plan TO give all future
ex-presidents of the United States or
their widows pension of $4,000 a
year, the impression is strong among
Mr.. Taft's friends that he will not ac-
cept the bounty.
It is certain, however, that the pres.
ident in any action that he may take
will show a thorough appreciation OF
the motive behind the Carnegie gen
erosity. He may commend Mr.. Carne-
gie's proposition, but in declining the
gift himself suggest that his action
should not be taken as establishing
any precedent.
AS was indicated by the few express
sions obtained from senators and rep
resentatives, the Carnegie Foundation
plan met with almost general disap-
prevail on Capitol Hill.
1t was very plain, however, that the
Carnegie plan is likely to have a
wholesome effect in squirting congress
to a duty which it has shirked foI
many years.

of Ainsworth was received at the capt.

There have been no deaths during

without charge to the inmates OF the

money, but in many substantial ways,

First on the program will be The
Grand Entry. A striking and most
transeendent Introduction of the regu-

compare.
Among the many other sensational,
eduilibristic and comedy features of
this years wonderful show are the
Saw Dust Brothers, in a grotesque
acrobatic turn, introducing Gazaba, a
silent partner. Mr. Ben Dunham the
worlds greatest horizontal bar per-
former. viii at this performance make
one of his noted long sumersaults be-
tween the bars. Owing TO lack of stage
room in the opera house, it has not
been possible for him to exhibit this
wonderful feat of accuracy and skill
before a Pensacola audience in the
past. The size of the gymnasium
makes it possible for him to place the
bars at the required distance. Mr..
Durham featured this part of his act
while with the large circuses and
abroad. This part of the program
alone is worth more than the price
of admission.
Biff and Bang, the pick of the
worlds talent, will appear in acrobatic
and eduilibristic achievements on the
rebounding table.
The Roinuj Troupe, in a costly.
ornate and gorgeous broom festival.
