AND PENSACoLIANS
lac Hero of tha Huron.

The Hero of the Huron.
Admiral Lucien Young is dead 1t
was in sorrow and sadness that the
Journal last night conveyed to the
people OF this city the news of the
death of Admiral Young in New York
city yesterday afternoon. His place
cannot be filed, neither in this com
munity. nor in the country. He was a
gallant naval officer and served his
cuntry and flag well and faithfully for
many years. More than all, he was a
man. Only those who knew Admiral
Young personally could appreciate his
lovable qualities. He was a man who
won the respect and esteem of all
who learned his fine qualities of heart
and mind. and his gallantry and
bravery in the service Of his country
in peace and in war. won for him the
admiration of the whole American peo-
pie as well as the people of foreign
countries. The Journal could publish
q volume eulogizing Admiral Young,
but nothing we could say would add
one iota to his record as a man and
an officer. The Almighty has seen fit
to remove the hero Of the Huron, and
we, together with the balance of the
country, can only mourn the loss of
man who was a man.-Key West

THURSDAY. OCTOBER IT. 1912.
Governor Wilson's
Prospects Growing Brighter.

Each week in the rapidly closing
presidential campaign shows that the
prospects for the success OF the dem
ocratic ticket are growing brighter
as the campaign draws to an end.
Since congress enacted the Aidrich-
Payne tariff law and President Taft
endorsed it in his famous Winona
speech. little serious doubt existed
in the minds of thinking people that
the next congress would be demo-
cratic and the next president would
be democrat.
The next congress was democratic.
The work it attempted 10 accomplish
and would have done nad it not been
for the veto measures of a reaction
airy president, was splendid. It makes
the election of another democratic
congress In November almost a GER
tainty.
The result of the Baltimore con-
vention in nominating Woodrow Will
son and in adopting a progressive
platform OF constructive democratic
principles and the admirable course
pursued by the nominee during the
campaign, have made his triumphant
election in November all but an as
sured fact.
1t has been expected in some quar-
tiers and prophecied all along the
line, that towards the close of the
campaign there would be great
slump Of former republicans to Taft
This expected movement has utterly
failed to materialize.
On the other hand, the democratic
party is thoroughly united All ths
elements within the party were never
in fuller accord or more perfect har-
mony. The great body of the voters
are pleased with the candidate AM
are pleased with the platform.
Governor Wilson is growing IN
popularity every day and it is easy
to foresee great victory for tae
party.

THE DIRECTORS
Of The FAIR
HELD MEETING
REPORTS AT SESSION YEsTER.
DAY AFTERNOON INDICATE
THAT THE BEST FAIR EVER
HELD IN FLORIDA WILL BE
THE ONE HERE THIS YEAR
FINANCES ARE GOOD.

Several matters of interest to the
association Were discussed at meet
ing of the board OF directors of the
held in the offices of the secretary
and general manager in the Blount
building yesterday afternoon, and
plans for the opening of the fair on
Monday, October %. were discussed.
The principal matter discussed was
the financial standing of the associa-
ton and it was shown that the fin
ances are in better condition than
they have ever been before at this
time of the year.
However, the directors are determ-
ianed not to take any risk this year
If it can be avoided and during the
next few days strenuous efforts will
be made to place the association on
an even better footing than 1t now is.
The reports of the secretary showed
that arrangements were being made
to have the best midway ever seen
here and that an unusually large
number of concessions had been ap-
piled for. while the entries in all OF
the departments were better than
ever before.
All of the directors present and the
secretary were very enthusiastic and
it is believed that the fair this year
will far surpass any ever held in
Florida and will compare most favor
ably with any of the fairs held in
the south.

StuLlcIS
And constantly utters
Unprintable stuff.
He spends his time signing
And sobbing and crying,
And thinks he is dying,
But not fast enough.
When he gets to choking
He has to stop smoking,
IT'S not time for joking
And life is a frost.
There's none to befriend him
Or sympathy lend him.
He knows that win end him
And that he Is lost.
His wife does not worry
Or hurry or skurry
She knows she'll not bury
Him and sheds no tear.
She knows he'll not leave her
He's one gay deceiver.

waited until banking hours were over
before going to deliver them. He
found several of the clerks busy clos
ing up the books, and he showed that
he was a genuine book agent by
starting in to talk against time. Bill
knew what he was after, and he got it,
after waiting an hour. Bill saw that
the cashier, whose name was Bell,
locked up the vault. He used two sets
of keys, one tor the inner door to the
small safe ana the other for the big
iron outside door. He put the keys
In different pockets. Bill was close
enough to the keys to remember them
if he saw them again. Bill followed
the cashier to his home, which was in
the suburbs, in a neat two-story cot
tage, and the preliminary work was
over.
'It would have been easy.to take the
next step, which would be to get the
keys and open the safe. That is what
some thieves would have done, but
had better trick up my sleeve,
which came out of my caution, and
would aid us in making escape easy.
It was developed in this way: The
same night Bill found out about the
keys, we made call at Cashier Bells
house after the family had retired.
We did not care to disturb their slum-
bers, so we entered the house through
a parlor window. Bill had located the
room in which the cashier slept, and
l went there noiselessly. Either the
cashier or his wife had beautiful
snore, and I need not have been so
careful in my operations. | found the
cashiers trousers, removed the keys
and returned to the street, where Bill
was waiting.
1--WE went to a secluded spot where
it was safe to flash lantern. There
took a careful impression of the
vault keys and the key of the front
door of the bank in wax, and all the
measures necessary. l then returned
to the cashiers house and replaced the
keys in his pockets just as I had found
them. We closed up the house and
went home.
I Immediately went to work on the
keys. They used to say was the best
keymaker in the world. 1t took me
about a day to file the keys.
1.-THE night after We had called on
Cashier Bell, Bill and paid a visit to
the bank about two o'clock in the
morning, when we knew the police
man on the beat was taking a snooze
in bakery.
"The keys worked like a charm.
| Five minutes after we entered the
bank l was inside the vault packing
| up the green stuff. I took all the
money and such bonds as appeared to
be negotiable. I worked lively, and in
twenty minutes closed the doors of the
vault and walked out with $4,000 in
my grip. We were in time to connect
with a freight train. After riding
about ten miles we left the train,
crossed the Hudson to Rhinebeck, and
took the first train to New York

matter how careful you may be. In
probably no other business are mis-
takes made so often as in police work.
and we are frequently unjustly crit
icized and condemned.
Il speak in this way because of my
recollection of the pounding | re-
ceived when investigating the robbery
Of the Kingston National bank. l
know that I did not deserve all that
I got, but great many people thought
l was not abused half enough.
81 was put to work upon the case
the day the robbery was discovered,
which was on Monday morning. A
very singular state of things was
found at the bank when Cashier Bell
threw open the doors of the vaults to
begin the days business. All the
clerks We're present at their desks, as
the books were kept in another safe,
which was in charge of the head book
keeper. The cashier entered the vault
to take out some bills to put in the
drawers In his desk. A moment later
he staggered out and fell into chair.
He was not able to speak for mo-
ment. The clerks gathered around
him, thinking he had an attack OF
heart failure, to which he was sub
ject. He announced, when he got con-
troll of himself, that there was no
money in the vault, but he did not say
that there had been a robbery.
"After a short consultation, the
bank was closed for the day, and
everything was just as it had been
found when I got there. I made a
careful examination of all the windows
and doors There was no sign that
thieves had forced an entrance. The
vault, according TO the statement OF
Cashier Bell and all the clerks, was
locked when they reached the bank.
The paint on the doors had not even
a slight scratch to show that they had
been tempered with. The deeper /
went into the affair the more mysteri-
Gus 1t became. I made up my mind
that some one had robbed the bank
who was perfectly familiar with the
safe and the methods of doing busi-
ness.
81 had a private consultation with
the president and directors. and got
from them the history Of every man
who worked in the bank, so far as they
knew it. Every employe had a gilt
edged reputation. was prominent IN
