SHIPPED FROM BANK TUESDAY.
The two packages of money were
made up in the First National Bank
Tuesday afternoon and delivered 10
the Office Of the Southern Express Co.
There they were receipted for and re-
NAMED in the express Office during the
night. The following morning the
packages were removed, delivered to a
train messenger and carried to the
depot. They seemed to be the original
packages and were there placed IN the
express safe and locked UP.
The train going north was the Pen
sacola and Mobile through train and
the money was delivered to the agent
at FYomaton who turned II over 70 the
L & N. pay car a few minutes later.
It seemed to be all right with no seals

ONE PACKAGE A DUMMY.
! The men IN charge of the pay train
were not long in discovering that one
package was a dummy. The first
package on being broken open checked
up $4,000. Then the second package
was opened and a mass of paper cut
the size of bank notes was revealed
The $55, 900 package had disappeared
and dummy had been substituted
How this was done and when It Was
done is what the Southern Express
Company is paying a dozen or more
Pinkerton detectives to solve. In ad-
dition they have their own force OF
detectives on the scene as well as scat
tered along the road from Pensacola to

with them last night, but apparently
they had secured no clue, or else were

GOVERNORS REPLY.

To which Governor Wilson replied:
your telegram telling me of the
formation of Wilson National Pro-
gressive League gave me the deepest
qualification and encouragement. The
action you and your associates are
taking seems to me truly patriotic.
The Progressives of the nation ought
not to be divided. No mere attach
ment to a party name should now
separate men whose purposes and
convictions are united for a common
object. The formation of the league
seems to me one of the most reassur-
ing indications of the temper of the
thoughtful. May l not convey to you
my congratulations on your own part
in the movement.

Coincident with the opening of the
Democratic campaign in Ohio today.
Governor Wilson gave his hearty ap-
proval today to the formation in New

Rudolph Spreckles, now in New York
in charge of the movement, exchanged

today by the nominee:

Eastern headquarters of the Wilson

founded by Progressive Republicans
who hope to save the Progressive
movement that was started some years
ago in the Progressive party, but
which Is now being betrayed by the
organization of Col. Rooseevlt's third
term party. Under these conditions
you alone deserve the support Of true
Progressives who place principles
above partisanship. Our membership
is wholly Republican, but we feel JUS
titled in voting and working for your
election since the candidate of the Re-
publican party does not represent the
Progressive majority in that party and
Roosevelt's candidacy is hopeless and

SOME VACATION SUGGESTIONS.
(By Ruth Cameron. }


The season of vacation and travel
i, close at hand. In a week or two
the annual hunt for pleasure will be
fairly under way. May l. then, offer
few heterogeneous suggestions tc
the yacationer and the traveller?
First, don't draw advance drafts
on your vacation accOlnt-in Other
words don't get exceptionally tires
because you are about to have rest.
There is nothing more dangerous %
the success of any trip than that.
Don't expect too much. Then all
your surprises will be pleasant ones.
If you want to look as well when
you arrive at the way station or at
your journeys end. as when you
sl'art out, wear very plain things. \
tailored suit and a silk shirtwaist is
the ideal travelling rig for a woman.
1t may be personal preference, but it
seems 10 me that woman who is
travelling never looks quite 50 well
as in a dark blue sui: with blue silk
blouse and White ruche or turnover
collar,
BE thinking more of the people you
are going TO meet than of the person
they are to meet. and you will be
very likely to please.
e ready to make friends-iOr after
all, these new personalities are as
valuable a part of our vacation treas
ure as anything we see or bring
lone but not too ready. Especially
he not too ready with your conf
dcnccs. Remember that the guard
growth Of summer friendship is apt
t. withcr as rapidly as il grew.
