patrolman of the Carr Street Sta
ton, climbed and vaulted over four
fences yesterday afternoon to get from
his home at 1900 South Eighteenth
street to the house at 1856 South
Eighteenth, where a child's dress was
on fire. He beat out the fire with
his hands, but the 5-year- old child
Myra Greensberg, had already been
so severely burned that city hospital
physicians fear she will die.
The dress was ignited by a bonfire
near which she was playing. Knight.
who was dressing to go on duty, heard
her screams, and from his upstairs
porch saw what had happened
His hands were so burned that he
will not be able to perform police duty
for several days. Patrolman Grund, in
his report on the case at the Soulard
Street Station, told Of Knights efforts
to save the child.

PLEASED WITH
PROSPECTS IN
ESCAMB|A CD.
MICHIGAN FARMER, PASSING
THROUGH WEST FLORIDA WAS
IMPRESSED WITH WHAT HE
SAW, AND BOUGHT FARM ON
WHICH HE EXPECTS TO LIVE
THE REST OF HIS LIFE.

Tn political parlance," said o. w.
Jefferson of Klondyze, one OF Escam-
bia county's most progressive farm
ers, our visit TO Pensacola at this
time is of no special Significance"
Accompanying Mr.. jefferson was S.
J. Bll, OF Cottage Hill. and Isaac
Pinney, formerly of Branch county.
Mich, The latter came to Pensacola
as the guest of Mr.. Jefferson, who
was anxious for him to see the most
f1ourishing city in Florida. MI Pm
ney has only been a resident OF Es-
Gambia county for about three weeks
And by the way, there is little
story in connection with my becom-
ing a citizen Of this country. It Is this (:
In company with my wife left Mich
igan on a prospecting tour. We grew
tired of the cold and concluded to seek
a summer cline. We went to Kan
sas, and after short stay there con l.
cluded that the place, after all, was
fair Florida
"Of course we had TO pass through
West Florida enroute to our destina-
ton, and we stopped for, as we
thought, a brief time. We were i'm
pressed with the country and / said
to my wife, this suits me- and she
concurred with me and 7 was not a
great Whlle IN making up my nina
that henceforth T was to he a citizen
of Escambia county, Florida
I'VE bought our little farm" con-
tinued Mr.. Pinney land we expect to
live and die on IT. It Is a charmi 4 z
place. and the people in our section
are hospitable and industrious. am
glad I stopped in West Florida.
Mr.. Pinney expressed himself as
being surprised at what he had seen Of
Pensacola, declaring IT to be one Of
the most attractive cities he had seen
in any section of the country from
Michigan to Florida.
1.-THE Interstate Fair is attracting
no little interest up our way" stat
ed Mr.. Jefferson, land we are going
to lend our best efforts in assisting TO
land the first prize for Escambia
county again Our crops are going
fine and we expect to make even a
better display than we made last
year"
