The lieutenant is shining example Of
man that has missed his calling. He
belongs to the Episcopal church, the
7. NJ. c. A. the Strangers club, the
Osceola club, the Country club, the
Pensacola Commercial Association and
the Masonic fraternity.
He is also teacher in the Episcopal
Sunday school, head of the Boy Scouts
and commander Of the United States
revenue cutter Penrose.
1t Is easily seen that Lieutenant
Young was sent here for the express
purpose of reforming the city, helping
upbuild its social institutions and is
suing orders to the Boy Scouts.

and of Chicago and New York, is
bringing his present visit TO Pensacola
to a close, a firm believer in the fu-
ture of this city not only as a famous
winter resort, but as a city which will
be very much worth while indeed, the
whole year round.
Mr.. Meyer is a man who has had oc-
casion, of course, to have his ear TO
the ground" for the past few days in
Pensacola, and he Is also a man whose
years of business success proclaim
that he does not take snap judgment
on very many propositions.
81 am especially surprised and
pleased with Pensacola" he remarked
yesterday after an enthusiastic tour of
the city.

and ! like features of 1t a great deal
better than some of those of the rest

seen a Mardi Gras, and did not plan
to remain this time, but l have been
so Hospitality treated here in the city
and especially at the San Carlos hotel,
that I am going to perhaps make that
effort
TT has been my habit to expect al
most any kind of service in hotels
located out of the metropolitan CEN
ters, once they got you there. have
been impressed more than once here,
however, that a personal interest is
taken in you just as soon as you ar
rive, with the determination that you
are to get the most delightful and per-
feet service possible.

who makes hotel keeping a science,

report of a man named Hsi who was
arrested last February with two
collins in his possession containing
the remains of zeal relatives, around
which were packed four thousand
ounces of opium which he vas TAX
ing with the corpses into Shansi. 1t
is the custom of the Chinese to take
their dead in huge wooden collins
back to the place OF their birth. The
prisoner was tried and sentenced 10
Ten years imprisonment. The case
then was referred to the central gov
eminent In Peking, and the man was
sentenced to death. The execution
has just taken place. the prisoner

was the practice in the old days.
