An Evening of Sacred Song.

The initial sacred concert of the
autumn season was given at the Pres
byterian church last evening, the edi-
flee being thronged.
Both opening and closing selec-
tions were ones of rousing militancy,
the former, Banner of Victory"
from the Hymns of Heavenly Har-
mony," was by the entire choir. The
latter, Baring-Gould's masterpiece,
Onward, Christian Soldier" lacked
the familiar melody, necessitated
doubtless by it's arrangement for
solo, quartet and chorus parts, which
were taken by Mr.. Strickland, the
Elks Quartet and the choir respec-
lively, new musical setting for the
grand professional which is irresisti-
BILE whether used either in band
march or congregational worship.
Tender pathos was expressed in the
solo, Face to Face" by j. K. Choate.
We believe this was Mr.. Choates
first appearance in the role of vocal
ist before an Ashland audience, and
now that the ice has been figurative-
ly broken, it is expected that he will
favor the public with further talent
along this line. A pleasing person.
ality adds to the charm of his vocal
powers.
Newman's exquisite plea for spirit
ual aid and inspiration, as exempli-
fled in Lead, Kindly Light" was
rendered admirably by the Elks
Quartet in the persons of Messrs. A.
l.. Strickland, d. d. Norris, NJ. E.
Briggs and Henry Enders. 1t is emf
nently fitting that this popular or
ganization has invaded the domain
of sacred music as well as secular,
and an appreciative audience found
in the singing of these gentlemen all
that could be desired, expressions be-
ing heard on every hand that it
would be a pleasure to hear them
again. Newman shares with Dykes
in the popularity of this glorious
hymn, and the condescension on his
part raises the old question as to
whom the greater credit is due-the
author of the words or the composer
of the melody. 1t would seem as
though 'honors were easy" between
author and composer in this respect.
'Thy Will be Done" an anthem
of superlative merit, was sung by
the choir, which musical organization
is exhibiting rare talent under COM
petent instruction. The duet,
David and Goliath executed by
Professor MacMurray and Mr.. Strick-
land, brought out to perfection a no.
table selection from that sacred ora
torio, while Hold Thou Mine
Hand" solo by Professor MacMur-
ray, was fully up to that gentleman's s
standard of excellence. He sets the
pace as d mOSI efficient leader.
The choir, including leader-accom-
panist and organist, was reinforced
to the extent of 81 members, a dozen
ladies and nine gentlemen, and the
extra fine musical service was a
credit to their efforts both individu-
ally as we'll as collectively.
Incidentally it might be mentioned
that Mr.. Doran has been occupying
the pulpit for the past two Sundays
in the absence of the pastor, a service
as freely extended as it has been
most acceptably received.

GRANDMoTHER'S RECIPE OF
SAGE TEA AND SULPHUR AND
NOBODY WILL KNOW.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to its natural
color dates back to srandmother's
time She used it to keep her hair
beautifully dark, glossy and abundant.
Whenever her hair fell out or took en-

with wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and

any drug store for SO cent bottle Of

recipe which can be depended upon to
restore natural color and beauty to the
hair and is splendid for dandruff, dry,

LAW IS PUZZLE
TO GREAT MANY
SOME SUGGESTED ERRORS ARE

IT-BALLoTs EASY TO VOTE
BUT HARD TO COUNT.

A Tallahassee special to the jack

nominate a United States senator

the earmarks and brands OF po-
litical problem that will be neat and

Law is EXPLAINED.

The Metropolis referred the above
story sto Collector of Customs J. F. G.
Griggs, National Committeeman John
i. G. Crawford and James Carson
who were OF the opinion that there
were no defects in the law, A definite
explanation of the first and second
choice" provisions OF the law was Sc
cured from these gentlemen, as fol-
lows:
"First-There is no second choice
voting where there are only two can
didates.
"Second-Where there are more
than two candidates each voter may
indicate his first choice and also his
second choice.
"Third-The tabulated returns of an
election must show the first choice
votes of each candidate, and must
show also how the second choice
votes of those voting for any partic-
ular candidate were distributed
among the remaining candidates.
For instance, suppose that in the
next campaign for United States SEN
ator there are four candidates-A, B..
c and D-and $1,000 votes cast. The
returns would have to be as follows:
at 900 electors voted 1900 first
choice votes for A, and 5000 second
choice votes for B. and 5000 second
choice votes for c, and 5000 second
choice votes for D. :.
"Fourth-AH the candidates except
the two receiving the highest number
of first choice votes are to be dropped
and neither of their first or second
choice votes counted for them.
'sFiftf-To the first choice votes Of
the two remaining candidates-mean-
ing those still in the race-must be
added the second choice votes which
were cast for them by electors who
cast their first choice votes for one c.
the other Of the eliminated candt-
dates.
.Sixth-The one of the two candi-
dates still In the race whose first and
second choice votes added together,
according to paragraph 5, make a
larger total than the same votes for
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1913-09-21

the other one of the two remaining
candidates, has received the nominal
ton.
"Seventh-The second choice votes
cast by electors who voted for either
OF the two high men as first choice
shall not be counted at all"
In regard to the special reference Of
the correspondent to the election of
United States senators, the well
known F1oridians stated the wording
of the law provided for the first and
second choice features, and that the
fact that a second choice column had
not been used in the mere form Of
voting for senators, did not affect the
law adversely. When there are only
two candidates for an office, no choice
column is necessary, AMI the second
column in the senate provision was
left out to illustrate this fact.

SALOON LAW IS
NULLIFIED BY
LITTLE =" JOKER

SALOONS CAN HAVE CABARET

Regarding the new saloon law,
which becomes effective soon, the
Jacksonville Metropolis says:
Some one slipped a "joker"-another
one-in the recent bill regarding the
sale and the manner of conducting
places where liquors shall be sold in
Florida, and the smile is broad on
the faces of those who favored the
Joker" while the looks Of the men
who advocated and passed the bill are
somewhat clouded to say the least.
Section 5 Of the bill reads as fol-
lows:
Section 5-That no gates, doors.
windows or openings of any kind shall
connect the place of business of any
dealer in Intoxicating liquors. wines
or beer with any adjacent house or
lot so as to permit ingress into or
egress out of such house or lot from
or into any such place of business; ;
that no blinds or screens, chairs, set
tees, benches or tables shall be set
up or used in such place of business;
that no musical, vaudeville or other
attractions shall be permitted in such
place of business; that no game or
games shall be permitted to be carried

on In such place Of business, nor shall,

vided, that nothing in this act shall be
construed to apply to hotels having
100 rooms or more; that no obscene or
sensuous picture or statuary shall be
displayed in any such place of bust
ness; that throughout the night light
or lights shall be kept burning in such
places Of business and no doors,
blinds curtains, shades. screens or
other things shall be allowed to pre-
vent persons on the outside of such
place of business from seeing inside
thereof and it shall be the duty of the
proprietor of such place of business to
see that this section is complied with"
Here's the Joker.
And then comes the Joker" PRO
vIded that this section shall not apply
to restaurants serving intoxicants at
meals, when the restaurant and saloon
are run and operated in the same
room, provided such restaurants have
paid the regular liquor license tax
provided under the state license law"
Under this 1t is claimed any saloon
to obviate the restrictions of the act
has nothing to do but put in a restaur-
ant or lunch counter-in the same
room-and have wine, women and ca
baret shows, and keep the screens
drawn as before. Said one man this
morning: ''It means the possibility of
turning every saloon into a restaurant
and every restaurant into a saloon"
Everyone seems to be Ioath to dis
cuss the possibilities that may follow
the going into effect of the new law,
October 1. But everyone admits that
someone has seemingly put something
over on the law that was framed and
passed to prevent the presence of
women in places where liquors are
sold and to give publicity to what Is
passing in all places of retail liquor
selling.

ut is not under my jurisdiction. 1t

hate to see saloons turned into restau-
rants or lunch counter places, for I be-
lieve there should be nothing sold or
given away in saloons but liquors, so
that man would have to take his
drink and get out for anything else
he wanted"
