They throw them upon her as If in
homage TO her skill. Thicker and
thicker they throw them, until she
sinks under the weight of perfumed
tributes and is crushed to death.
This is the perfumed death of the
Pisan eourtesan. Two fierce leOp-
ards in a gilded cage are held in
readiness to finish the work that the
roses have begun.
AS the Pisanella lies silent under
the mound of roses the young King
enters and eonfronts the Queen
Mother. These are the words that
the audience thought they caught
amid the sonorous splendor OF the
scenery:

The Prince Of Tyre also claims the
captive, but the King then arrives
with wagonloads of provisions for
the suffering people. They acclaim
him with joy and think they see in
the beautiful captive the legendary
maiden who is to marry him and re-
lieve them from their misery. BY
the Kings orders they carry her in
triumph to a convent.
In the second act the nuns are seen
climbing ladder to peer through the
window of the Blessed Maiden, as
they call the captive. To their sur
prise they find her adjoining herself,
painting her eyebrows and coquetting
before a mirror She is preparing
herself for the King.
Then the Prince of Tyre arrives,
followed by band of eourtesans who
declare that the strange woman is
one Of their own kind formerly noto-
rious at Pisa, in Italy, whence she is
called the "Pisanella." AS the Prince
is about to seize her the King enters
and strikes him down with his sword.
The Prince cries:
You have killed me,
But you are doomed to the fires of hell,
For this is the enemy,
She Is your statue Of marble.
The young King loves the Pisanella
madly, believing her to be the maiden
of legend. The whole island is torn
into warning factions fighting for or
against her. She brings death and
ruin to the great and rich, but the

Paris, July ).

THE life of ascetieism and plous
devotion could not hold Ida
\ Rubinstein and Gabrielle dan
nunzio
she, the most temperamental, pas
sionate of all Russian dancers, is
now playing the leading role in
D'Annunzio's new poetic drama, The
Pisanella, or the Perfumed Death.
He, the most erotic, decadent yet
gifted of all verbal magicians, fell
madIy in love with the dancer when
she was playing his saint Sebas-
tian." She rejected his wooing, for the
shirt of the drama had turned her
soul to religion. DAnnunzio was
not man a mOralist could approve,
for he had wife and he has most
basely ill-treated the great Bleonora
Duse, not to mention others.
Ida Rubinstein's example made
him repentant also. He decided to
return to Italy to make amends to
those he had wronged and pay off
the enormous debts from which he
had ned. She went away to the
wilds to repent and purify her soul.
But the love of luxury, the yearn-
ings of the flesh and the old deep
rooted habits Of life were too strong
for both Of them. They are both
back in Paris again and together.
"The devil has them for good
now" say the cynical Parisians.
aThe Pisanella" is the most hectic,
morbidly sensual yet picturesque
and original work that has yet been
produced by D'Annunzio. Its effect
is heightened enormously by the
wonderful scenery and costumes de-
signed by the great Russian artist,
Leon Bakst. 1t is accompanied by
mystical harmonies by Debussy. Its
production at the Chatelet Theatre
was the most memorable occurrence
in recent dramatic art.
The scene is laid in Cyprus in the
thirteenth century, when the beautl-
full Mediterranean island was
kingdom founded by the Crusaders
and the haunt of the most desperate
mAventurers Of Eastern Europe.
Cyprus was the reputed birthplace
of Venus, and some of the islanders
still worship the sensual pagan god
dess, while others put their hopes
In a poor Christian virgin from the
people who, according to legend,
will deliver them from pestilenee,
drought and famine
With these beliefs is mingled the
legend Of lord of the island, who
placed his wedding ring on a statue
of Venus. The statue came to life,
entered the nuptial chamber, and
the young lords bride, seeing that
ne was overcome with admiration,
killed herself in despair.
The time has come when the very
young and innocent king Of the island,
Huguet de Lusignan, should marry.
His ambitious and heartless mother,
and his INSCRIPTIONS brotherin-law,
the Prince of Tyre, wish him to
marry a princess of powerful family.
He dreams of marrying a poor
Christian maiden who will realize
the legend of the people. All this is
explained in the prologue. The play
is written in very curious old French
verse, with irregular unrhymed
lines.
The first act shows the harbor

Cyprus, crowded with corsairs and
pirates of all nations, who are sell

Philadelphia's Decline
as a Coal Port.

Pennsylvania produces practically
half OF the coal mined in the United
States In 1911 the total for the Unit
ed state was 44S,o54,s14 tons. OF this
Pennsylvania produced 21o016,276 tons.
Philadelphia, the natural point OF
outlet for this vast coal product, ought
logically to stand at the top of the
coal ports of the country. Up to 1909,
Philadelphia did hold the leadership.
But in 1909, she lost that leadership
to Norfolk and she has now been
thrust into third place by Newport
News. The exports of the five leading
ports for 1912 by tons, was as follows:
Norfolk, 1884, 119: Newport News, L.
03s.27s; Philadelphia, s15,s17; Balti-
more, 626.s96; New York, 1898.
without any exhaustive analysis of
the reasons entering into the ascend
ency Of Norfolk and Newport News
over Philadelphia and of the close race
that Baltimore is now running the
Quaker city for third place it is sig
niicant that the ports that lie furthest

are getting the business.
This Is pertinent to Pensacola's To-
cation and advantages as an export
and bunker coal port and particularly
the latter.
Pensacola is the natural outlet for
the coal of the great Birmingham ore
district. A train load of coal out Of
Birmingham can roll down hill all the
way to Pensacola. Transatlantic steam
ers taking cargoes at gulf ports-Gal-
weston, New Orleans. Mobile-can put
in at Pensacola, take bunker coal, and
save from two to four days time over
any Atlantic port
Time is a big factor with ocean
steamers, amounting with those taking
gulf cargoes to from $4,000 to 100000
per day. depending on the size of the
ship.
Trade today seeks the easiest and
shortest route-it takes the line of
least resistance Fact which probably
ACCOUNTS for Philadelphias decline in
coal exports and fact as we'll which
should enable Pensacola to build up an
immense bunker coal business.

Migrants Should Be
Put to Work.

Pensacola seems to be afflicted now
with an unusual number of Migrants,
mostly colored. whose presence here is
a menace to the safety of citizens and
property
Most of them could probably .get
something to do, either here or some
where else, II they wanted to. but they
belong to a nomadic class that never
works when there is any other way of
living and they are as useless to them
selves as they are to the community
that harbors them.
The best way to handle these colored
loafers. who do not live here and who
have no visible means Of support, is to
put them at work on the public roads
The city authorities can do this at
once. thus getting rid OF the loafers
and at the same time accomplishing
some much needed improvements.

OF OLD CHATTANOOGA

Editor Pensacola Journal
In The Pensacola Journal of the 18th
read with interest a sketch Of the
history Of the building now used as
an asylum for the insane. Mr.. Charles
does not write from his own personal
knowledge l am sure and has been
sadly misinformed on the subject. If
he will pardon the liberty I will point
out some of the mistakes, some from
my own knowledge and others from
the traditions of more than sixty years
ago
A life of Andrew Jackson says
Jackson was the first military gov
ernor. I do not now remember how
long his term of ONCE lasted, but the
traditions of the country teach that it
was Jackson who planned and super
intended the building of the fort and
also the United States government to
establish it as an arsenal.

turned into a state prison, Captain

in So large a force in agricultural de-

too expensive. The convtcts were

appropriated the whole property to its
present use.

rake IL anaies that I have written these
statements. But I am sure as he is

from lying about Mr.. Bryan.

that some Japanese are going to settle
in Florida and send out the statement
that Mr.. Bryan is selling his Florida
E. erelades land for Japanese colonizs-

When Mr.. Bryan's attention was
called to the report, he swept it aside
with the brief statement that, SO far as
he was concerned, there was absolute
ly no truth in it.

lie about and libel every respectable
