AN|NSANE MAN
SAYS He WILL
WHIP JOHNSON
MAN TAKEN FROM STEAMER AND
NOW IN CITY JAIL SAYS HE IS
REAL "WHITE HOPE" AND WILL
THRASH JACK AND GET s41, 2os.

Pensacola at last has developed a
white hope" who declares that he
will whip Jack Johnson to a FRAGILE,
and persons passing the police station,
who are not accustomed to the rawlings
of some of the inmates of that insti-
tuition, would probably think that he is
capable of performing the feat if they
we're to judge by the force with which
he rattles the bars of the cell in which
he is confined
This latest recruit to the army of
white hopes" is the insane seaman
who was brought into port in irons
aboard the British steamer August
Belmont Friday afternoon and who
was transferred to the city Jail yes
terday afternoon.
Whether or not the seaman could
annihilate Jack Johnson in the short
order which he claims is, of course, an
other story, but there is no doubt that
for a man Of his size and weight he
is possessed of superhuman strength,
probably due to his mental condition
He weighs about IT'S pounds and is
about thirty years of age, and has al
ready proven that it takes more than
mere handouts to hold him, as before
he was taken from the vessel he had
broken several pairs.
He vows he is going to thrash Jack
Johnson for which stunt he says he
will receive at least 841, EOS.
Although last night was perhaps the
warmest experienced here this sum-
mer, the insane man, besides all his
clothes, had all of his bedding and

IS ENJOYING VISIT TO THE CAMP
AT ELEVEN MILE CREEK AND
SAYS HE is GOING OUT THE
FIRST DAY NEXT YEAR AND
SPEND THE WHOLE TIME.
BY One Of the Scouts.

Boy Scouts Camp, Eleven Mile
Creek, July IS, 1912.
Dear Journal: Some Of US fellows
who couldn't go on the Scout camp
for the whole week decided that we
would not miss all the fun, so we left
Pensacola Saturday morning for the
camp to spend a day or two. The
trip out was fine one, because 1t was
cloudy most of the way out. Just be-
fore getting to the camp we struck the
crookedest road / most ever saw and
never would have found the camp II
we hadn't found the tracks the other
fellows made a day or two ago playing
hare and hounds.
We got to the camp alright. but
were pretty tired. It didn't take US
long to get rested enough to go in
swimming in Eleven Mile Creek. The
creek certainly is a fine place to swim
in. The water. is deep right close to
the land and that makes diving fine.
The fellows have a dandy fiat bot
toned boat they made all by them
selves out of the boards they used to
use for seats in the dining tent. They
have to use pine saplings now for
seats, but none of them are sorry now
that they made the boat. for there is
no fun to be around the water with
out q boat even IL you do have to sit
Oh pine SdpllUES IpI your ul6dlS=
Dinner came in mighty handy to us
fellows who walked out. 1t sure did
taste good to us. The fellows in Lieu
tenant Young's tent cut the water
melon they got for having the best
looking tent on visitors day. They
gave us a piece, and that was about
the best watermelon we ever tasted.
You ought to see the boys out here.
They are all sunburned on the should
ers and you don't dare touch them or
there viii be a fight on, and you are
pretty apt to get the worst of II.
Camping is mighty fine. but the sun
certainly can burn big blisters If you
give it half chance
I'm too tired to write any more
now and besides that the train will be
coming soon and I can't get this letter
of on 1t If l don't stop now. I would
like to say that l am mighty sorry ]
didn't come out the first day. Next
year I'm coming out the first day
and then I wont be
A VISITING SCOUT.
P. S.-Tell all the other Scouts thai
they sure are missing a fine time and
that they had better come out Sunday
and spend the last day with US.

ACCIDENT IN NEW YORI
Rx Associated Press.

New York, July 13.-Probably the
most remarkable automobile accident
ever witnessed on a New York track
occurred at the Coney Island motor
dom shortly after midnight this
morning. Two machines were racing
at fifty miles an hour around the
saucer track which has a slant Of
nearly IS degrees, when a forward
axle broke on the car driven by Geo.
Cook.
Automobile and driver turned a COM
plete somersault from the top rim of
the track and at the same time the
other car, driven by Jack Randall,
shot beneath the machine whirling in
midair and continued on around the
track in safety.
Cook was found unconscious be-
meath the wreckage of his car, but
was not fatally hurt.
