LOVES LETTERS"

Your letters yellow with age.
They make my heart throb with rap
ture,.
Your love is breathed on each page,
I dream OF the old time sweetheart
When you were the world to me;
love to think Of that May day
That listened to your plea.
Come back to me, my dear lost one,
Back from the realms of the past;
In so alone tonight, sweetheart,
And the old love holds me fast.
1 kiss this bunch of violats,

They bring back tender memories
OF the dear sweet words you said.
Sc, when I'm blue and alone, dear.
And life seems so drear and sad,

And read till my heart grows glad.
But I can't forget those old days,
When you were my first true love,

That all will come right above.

A TRIBUTE TO
AN OLD SERVANT.

The many Pensacola people who
know of the recent touching instance
OF the almost immediate death OF an
old negro servant Of the Gate Ifr.
Warren 2. Anderson, after the death
Of his beloved master, will appreciate
the fine tribute paid the faithful old
man in the following lines taken from
the March number Of Florida Health
Notes." a well known medical maya
zine:
He was an old negro, was Abner
Jordan. Tall and lanky, and black.
He didn't know much. as the world
goes. Perhaps, he never saw an aero
plane, more likely never heard Of one.
He couldn't read, he couldn't sign his
name.
But Abner knew two things, he
knew how to stay at his post, and he
knew how to obey orders. And these
were enough. The days. weeks, years.
came and went, but these two things
Abner never forgot. During the yell
low fever epidemic at Pensacola Alb
ner's baby died. A few tears rolled
down his black cheeks. He wiped them
OH his sleeve. The little one was laid
to rest and Abner was again at his
post.
"Abner was in the employ of the
state board Of health. 1t was Dr. An
ooAS sun VIII SluploySu HiLlJ anu W
whom he looked for advice in times
OF perplexfty, and for comfort In time
of trouble. 1t was DR.. Anderson to
whom he looked for support when
others found fault. and withal for
Gliding when he mismanaged. 1t was
DR.. Anderson that he loved and obey
ed as only an old negro loves and
obeys his white master.
When DR.. Anderson was called 20
his final reward, Abner's heart was
heavy. He didn't seem sick, but he
was not well. DIR. Pierpont saw him
the day before he died, but did not
think he was seriously I'll. But a
merc1ful Providence allowed him to
linger in his grief only ten days when
he, too. was called to follow his

BRIGHT FUTURE FOR DEEP

]. c. Beatty, general manager of the
Birmingham Realty Company, in COM
pany with his wife, spent yesterday in
Pensacola. Mr.. Beatty was here on
business. but made 1t convenient to
take in the many sights of the city
and note the improvements since his
last visit here some four years ago.
Before that time he had visited Pen
sacola on fishing trips and has been
an interested spectator in the Deep
Water City development.
Mr.. Beatty believes strongly in Pen
sacola's future. not because he is in
terested in Pensacola. but as he said
to a representative Of The Journal.
because he is interested In Birming-
ham. Relative to the shipment Of the
coal and iron of the Birmingham dis
trict, Mr.. Beatty said he is sure that
Pensacola will be the port through
which this iron and coal viii be ex-
ported.
The railroads from the Birmingham
section, Mr.. Beatty thinks, are now
practically assured. One road, he says,
is certain and two others will probably
be built before the completion of the
Panama canal. Another point he
brings out is the big steel works In
Birmingham are putting in new plans
and all of the business of the COM
pany for the southern states and for
Central and South America will come
from the plants at Birmingham, ard
