be very thankful that the new dances
have been severely criticised.
Dancing is more popular all over
the United States now than 1t ever
has been, and it is bound to have a
beneficial effect on the health of the
people, for there is no better exercise
than dancing.
can afternoon Of dancing. in my
opinion, is better than walking for an
hour or two. In dancing there is an
incentive-the desire TO do the best
one can; walking for exercise, with
no particular destination and no par
ticular hurry, is nothing Dut just
plain, tiresome plugging | do
not believe in plugging
Sees Nothing Immodest.
Il have never been able toU find
anything immodest or immoral in the
new dances. and they are getting bet
| ter all the time. The dipping and the
wriggling that characterized some OF
! them when they were introduced has
disappeared almost entirely. 1t is not
considered ultra now to wriggle and
| dip; the more erect and graceful you
are the better dancer you are.
| THE tango and all the other much
abused but really beautiful dances
are here to stay, but the days OF
their critics are numbered. A new
diversion or pleasure win come along,
/ and the disciples Of criticism are al
ways searching for something new.
when another fad makes its ap-
pearance, the criticism Of the dances
and likewise of women's fashions, will
cease, for the critics will not have
time to attend to them

they are very comfortable and all

New Steps Are Pretty, and Denun-
citation Makes Them More Pop
<uIar, She Declares.

The end of the wave Of criticism
sweeping the country, in so far as it
affects the so-called new dances
and feminine fashions, is seen by Mrs.
Jacques Futrelle, widow of the ia
nous writer who was lost in the III
tanic disaster and herself an author.
She is in Atlanta for a weeks stay
with her mother, Mrs. J. 7. Peel, OF
No. "a West Fourth street.
Mrs. Futrelle thinks that launching
diatribes against such dances as the
tango, the one-step, 1.-THE hesitation
and others, and the holding up of
hands in righteous horror because
woman dares dress becOmngly. com
fortably and as she pleases, is but
the cropping cut of the instictively
human desire to be forever talking
about something. She thinks criti-
cism itself has gotten to be more OF
a fad than any of the things criti-
cised.
Criticism Good Advertising.
Some people, especially those who
hold positions that bring them more
or less in the public notice" Mrs. Flu
trelle said, seem never to be happy
unless they are condemning some
popular diversion and pleasure-usu-
ally with a sublime ignorance of their
subject

about something, and they talk so
much they advertise the thing that
they condemn and everybody feels

This craze for criticism and the
eagerness with which people criti-

about an unusual and an amusing

Made New Dances Popular.
I'VE owe the critics much. and
particular do we owe to them the
beautiful and graceful dances that
have been introduced within the past
few years. Had the tango and the
hesitation and the one-step and the
others not been greeted with such a
storm Of criticism they probably
would have abode their destined hour

ANOTHER TRUCK
IN AN ACCIDENT
SUDDEN AND UNEXPECTED TURN
OF HORSES THROWS VEHICLE
INTO YARD OF RESIDENCE ON
WEST GREGORY STREET.

While engaged in a practice" run
yesterday morning, Hose Company NO.
suffered an accident which, while
not damaging as to results, could have
been much more serious. AS 1t was,
the truck was out of commission for
the balance Of the day yesterday and
may have to undergo some repairs be-
fore being used again.
According to the statement made by
those who saw the accident, the truck
was going west on Gregory street and
after crossing Reus street started in
for a practice run, for a distance
of several blocks. At the intersection
of Gregory and DeVilliers streets, one
of the horses made a SHY at some
thing and turned abruptly northward
on DeVilliers street. This caused the
truck to swerve, and before the driver
could control the animals the truck
had crashed through the fence sur
rounding the Simmons residence, at
the corner of Gregory and DeVilliers,
and remained for the day in such po-
sition. None Of the f1remen were hurt,
but of course all were shaken up con-
siderably and were given a fright. Had
the turn have been but a few feet
further to the north, the pretty little
glass house in the yard, would have
been damaged considerably

class tourists are urged to send to the
Chamber of Commerce the data de-
sired
The Chamber. Of Commerce will
shortly engage in one of the most en-
ergetic of advertising campaigns to
bring all the tourists to this city and
section possible Hundreds who have
made the trip yearly to the west, to
Mexico, to Europe or to other points
in Florida, are expected to find their
way in the direction of Pensacola and
surroundings during the coming and
following tourist seasons. This will
possibly be brought about through the
high-class type of advertising which
the Chamber of Commerce is contem-
plating, but a complete register of the
tourist-housing facilities Of the city
and section is desirable. All data
should be sent to Secretary Phillips,
of the Chamber of Commerce at as
carry d udle dS pT6CIlCaDle, the carrier
the better, for that will aid the COM
mercial body in carrying into execu-
ton plans looking to the proper adver-
Using of this city.
Pensacola's advantages are to be set
before the tourist as never before The
war in Europe, the late unpleasantness
and the present unsettled conditions in
Mexico, the possibility of a visit to the
Pacific coast during the expositions
next year, and the possibility of i'm
proved passenger train service to and
through Pensacola, all will work to the
advantage of this city as a tourist CEN
ter, and the belief is that Pensacola's
quota of tourist visitors the, coming
season will exceed anything of the
sort known here.
At the mass meeting at the city hall
yesterday afternoon, Mr.. Dodson read
q very entertaining letter from lady
interested in the tourist question, and
expressions in that letter suggested
many thing whfdh will be followed in
the advertising campaign which is to
be launched at once.

FINE POINT IS
TO Be DECIDED
At CITY HALL
AS NO BUDGET HAS BEEN
PASSED, AND NOT LIKELY FOR
ANOTHER WEEK OR TEN DAYS,
FUNDS FOR SALARIES ARE UN-
AVAILABLE.

Unless the budget ordinance, now
pending before the city commi ssioaS-
ers, is passed on third reading by
Thursday of next week, an interest
ing point will have to be decided. THIS
is whether or not funds are available
for the payment of the first half
month salaries in all departments. Ac-
cording to those in position to know,
there are no funds available until the
ordinance is passed on third reading,
unless, perhaps, there be some ap-
preparation from the general funds now
being paid in taxes, etc.
The ordinance now pending is the
measure which fixes the appropriations
for each department. If no appro-
priations are made through the legal
processes, then there are no funds, it
was stated yesterday by one in au-
have to be some fine points decided
next Thursday when the regular saIa-
ries for the first half of the month
are due and payable.
While the mayor himself is silent on
the question, it is understood that he
will probably oppose the payment of
salaries until the ordinance is passed.
In view of the present outlook, the or
dinance will never be passed until the
third commissioner returns from the
north. Mr.. Johnson is the absent COM
missioner and just what stand he will
take on the adoption of the ordinance
is prob1ematicaI. 1t is understood,
however, that he will vote with Com
missioner Pou to restore the thirteen
members of the police department I'M
provided for, or at least come to some
sort of understanding whereby mono
Of the police department men are cut
off from the city's payrolls.
There is said to be a suff1ciency of
funds in the treasury to meet the cur
rent payrolls, but the ordinance now
pending is the measure which appro-
PIRATES money for each department.
Unless this ordinance is enacted into
law regularly and through due process,
there is the curious situation of the
city having a sufficiency Of money on
hand, but no way of paying out the
funds.
Mayor Greenhut, when asked about
the question of the possibility of the
checks for the first half of the month
being held up pending the passage Of
the ordinance, said that Commissioner
Johnson would be back in plenty of
time for action on the budget. That is
as far as he would go in the matter,
however.

CLEARED WITH
CARGO OF PITCH
ITALIAN STEAMSHIP SELENE
WILL GET AWAY FOR SEA TO-
DAY WITH NEARLY FIVE
THOUSAND TONS OF THE PRO-
DUCT .-....

With a cargo of coal tar pitch in
bulk, the Italian steamship Selene yes
terday cleared for Spezia, Italy, and
will likely get away on her long Voy-
age this afternoon. The steamer has
4, 900 tons aboard the same being val
ued at S36,750 >
1t was announced yesterday that
this steamer would likely return here
Immediately, and that a total of ten
trips are possible by the same steamer
or suitable substitutes. 1t was stated
that there is a total of 10000 tons to
be exported through this port, the en-
tire lot to go to two or three ports
in Italy.
It is possible that future shipments
will be made in barrels, on account of
the difficulty in handling the product
in bulk, as was evidenced in the load
ing of the Selene.
SAILED WITH COAL CARGO.
The British ship Hilston yesterday
was lowed to sea by the tug Sea King,
and that vessel begins her long voyage
to South America, taking to one or two
ports there the first cargo of coal ever
shipped in a sailing vessel from Pen
sacola- Considerable interest was man
ifested in the loading and the later
departure of the Hilston, for it was
believed that the vessel would change
flags before leaving port, and the in
terest was further increased by the
opinion that the cargo would never
reach its destination. In view of the
latter opinion, much interest will follow
the ships movements until reported at
port of destination.
LOADING DELAYED TOBACCO
The italian steamship Monviso,
which arrived Wednesday from New
Orleans, was berthed on the west side
of Commandments wharf to load out
e large consignment of tobacco, the
same consignment that was to have
been shipped aboard the Austrian
steamship Lucia, the latter having
cancelled the charter and taking a
berth in the stream to await the out
come of the European troubles. The
Monviso, will probably be ready for
sea tomorrow morning.
TWO STEAMERS COMING.
The steamship Leucadia and Penryth
Castle. both from Galveston, should
be in port this morning. At least the
last-named should be here, to take a
large consignment of bunker coal. for
a voyage via the Panama canal to
Japan with cargo of cotton. The
Leucadia, it was stated, comes here
for a small cargo parcel, remaining, 1t
was stated, about a couple of days.

Collins is today among the leading
hitters of the land, while Evers is no
longer hitting at the clip of his key
dey. At the bat it is quite likely that
Eddie will emerge from the series with
a bulge on the Boston flash.
1t should be kept in mind by the
fans who are eager to see these two
in the big games that a players work
in the regular season and his later
work in the worlds series are quite
two different matters. Both Evers and
Collins have seen worlds series bat
ties before and they will both be
primed for the strain. Whichever is
given the second base crown when
the series is over, it is safe to say
that neither will be disgraced.
