MOVING GREAT
LIBRARY OF THE
PREME COURT
TASK OF MOVING ABOUT ONE
is PROGRESSING NICELY.
SPECIAL TO THE JOURNAL


Tallahassee, Oct. 9.-Since Thursday
of last week several mule teams have
been engaged steadily in carting the
supreme court library over to the new
supreme court building. 1t is estimat-
ed that something near a hundred
thousand volumes have been removed
already and there are still many thou
sand Florida reports to be removed.
Only the third floor of the new build
ing Is ready for occupancy and this is
the one to be used only for the great
library. The second floor is still in an
unfinished condition and 1t is rather
unfortunate at this period of the year
as the supreme court is ready to re-
convene and 1t will be some time yet
before the court room is completed,
and it was thought that the whole
matte rof moving furniture, books and
records would be finished before the
fall sitting
It will be recalled that the original
contract for the supreme court build
ing was that 1t should be finished for
occupancy by the first day of April of
this year and at this last session of
the legislature 1t was brought to the
attention of the members that the con-
tractor had not completed the work and
that he was due demurrage, then some
of the friends of the contractor intro
duced bill to relieve him of the for
felt but failed to state at what time
the building must be completed and
therefore there is no limit. The ground
floor, which is to be occupied by the
railroad commission, is also yet UNI
finished and various dates have been
set for its completion. The marble has
just arrived for the wainscoting and
he %1fvr
rooms and library are reached at pres
ent by the elevator. When completed
this building will be one of the most
durable and picturesque structures in
the state, being fire. proof throughout
and costing over 800, 900. The grounds
are to be terraced and walks laid as
soon as the other work is finished, at
cost of $4,000, and 1t will be under
the trained supervision of Mr. s. z.
Ruff, the president of the local board
Of trade.

FINE OPENING
OF INSTITUTE

TONS.
SPECIAL TO THE JOURNAL

DeFuniak Springs, Oct 9.-The
Thomas Industrial Institute, located
in DeFuniak Springs, Fla, opened it's
first session this morning under the
most favorable auspices. The day was
ideal. The large audience that filed
to utmost capacity the auditorium,
and largely the adjoining class
rooms indicated the popularity of
this institute. It was further evinced
in the public most strongly endors-
ing its existance, and the fact
that this school was located in this
splendid city. The opening day has
been by far more than was expected
by the most optimistic. The boys and
girls dormitories are crowded with
bright faced boys and girls from West
Florida and South Alabama. The jubi-
liant and appreciative spirit of the stu
dent body indicates that there are
present here those who by determine
ton and hard work purpose to stand
at the front in this country in bust
ness and the industries.
The hour was opened by songs Of
dedication, praise and national hymns,
together with other devotional fea-
lures. The president, Rev. c. w.
Gavin, occupied the chair, and after
short address, outlining the purpose
of the institute, introducing other
speakers who spoke in congratulation
and encouragement. Hon. r. w.
Storrs, editor of the Breeze, among
other splendid remarks turned
prophet and said that If the institute
maintained it's purpose and promise
there would be a thousand students
here within five years. Hon. VIM.
Rogers, chairman of the board OF
trustees was happy in his address
that the opening day was more than
brightest hope had anticipated. Pas

And the queer part was that society
and Darktown sat there and laughed
at the very same jokes and the very
same antics and appeared to enjoy the
show equally as well. It was a typi-
cal American crowd and a typical
American show, and proved exactly

MANY LICENSES
REMAIN UNPAID
IN PENSACOLA
THOSE WHO HAVE NOT PAID
THEIR TAX INCLUDE MANY
LINES OF BUSINESS, coNTRAc-
TORS AND PROFESSIONS.

Although city licenses of all kinds
were due and payable on October 1st.
Comp troller Ward announced yester-
day afternoon that only small num-
Der of people engaged in business have
secured licenses, the number falling
far below the average at this time OF
the year.
Comptroller Ward said that there
are many who believe that they are
entitled to do business without a
license until a certain date after Oc-
tober 1st but they are mistaken, as q
failure to secure a license on the first
OF the month subjects a person to a
fine not exceeding $500 or imprison-
ment not to exceed sixty days, or both.
Those who have not paid their IL
censes include many lines of business
contractors and professions. Out of
total of about thirty-two saloons doing
business, only two had secured licenses
up to yesterday.
