and, later, desperate efforts of the
criminals in their efforts to escape.
Burns proceeds upon the principle
that every criminal leaves track
which may be traced. There are no
mysteries and a failure to obtain re-
suits indicates that the matter has not
been properly or thoroughly investi-
gated
The story of the play concerns a
poor man, who invests his small saw
ings in lands falsely represented by a
big, bad company. His congressman
finds out about the resultant fraud and
loss to the investor, attempts to thresh
the matter out in congress, finds the
company whitewashed in a committee
dominated by lobbyists, and finally en-

Detective William ]. Burns, Americas
famous sleuth, has become a hero Of
moving pictures. Not for long, how
ever He will be seen just once, in a
thrilling melodrama, wherein the de-
tective, just as in real Life, runs down
the horrible villains and brings them
to a wretched end.
The play, in which are shown all
the latest methods of capturing Grim
mails, is very complicated. Burns is
seen using finger print Identification
and traps his victims with the dieto-

Store for Every SO.


According to this statement every
SO people or IT'S families In Pensacola
support a retail business. There Is a
grocery store for every 210 people. or
~ families. Including the bar at the
San Carlos hotel, there are % saloons,
and these are supported, one by every
PA families.
It is fair to conclude that the neces-
stiles OF life for the citizens of Pen
sacola, come from these dealers. It
has been estimated that the average
family in the southeastern states pays
$500 annually for the necessities of
life. Of which 500 goes for the cost
of transportation of men and things.
II this is true, every 17.S families in
Pensacola pays $500 to each of the
retail dealers in the city (this amount
does not include the cost of transpor-
tation) from which the dealer must
make his profit.
In other words, the 5000 families Of
Pensacola pay to the 337 retail dealers.
$1.20o.0oo annually. II dealers make
earnings will be 100000, or less than
$500 average per dealer.
III Families TO Lawyer.
In addition to the above, there are
35 lawyers; every I'll families require
a lawyer to settle their disputes.
There are II dentists; every 545 fami-
lies keep a dentist busy. There are SO
physicians and surgeons: 1 to every
ITO families. There are SO BARRIERS:
to every 1S1 families. photogra
pliers are required: every 1000 families
use 1 photographer. 1t requires I'M
dertakers. or 1 to every 1900 families
to bury the dead. Veterinary surgeons
are 8, to every 1000 families.
Pensacola citizens spend for the ne
cessities of life at the rate Of $500. per
family, $1,S00,000 annually. This in
cludes transportation. OF this amount.
$500, 900 is made by the dealers and the
remainder goes out Of town. To this
should also be added a large part of
5000 per capita, cost of living. for the
s37 dealers the major part of which
also goes out of town.
According to a statement prepared
last year, the wage earners Of the city
receive s1,9sS, 900 annually, the per
capita annual wages being $411. The
industries of Escambia county added n
value to their manufactured articles,
of s1,00S, 5000. In one year. The major
part of this value went to the wage
earners and only part of the profft
remained in Pensacola, as some of the
manufacturers are foreign concerns.
In 1900 the population of the Unit
ed States In round numbers was 49,
100000. The number of merchants
and dealers. except wholesale, was
zee. $50, which is one dealer for every
IS of population or 1872 families.
The number of retail dealers In Pen
sacola is almost per cent more than
the average for the United States.
