FRANKLIN CD.
Game Abounds in Forests
and Waters are Filled With
All Species Of Fish.

While every section Of West Florida
is noted, to a greater or less extent,
for its game and fish, nowhere are the
OPPORTUNITIES for the sportsman so
great as in Franklin county. Here
are thousands of acres Of primeEal
forest filled with wild game of every
description; the immense stretches OF
salt water to the south TEEN with
speckled sea trout, reddish, mackerel
and bluefish and black bass, perch,

wildcats may be found within a mile or
two of any Of the Franklin county
towns. Lake WimiCo nine miles long
and three TO five miles wide, hut

a noted hunting and fishing resort, and
stories of some of the catches recorded
in this lake border on the marvellous.

company with sufficient anchorage for
the navies of the world The pier is
3 500 feet in length and has ample
business, consisting principally Of
lumber timber and naval stores, for
some time to come. There is a first
class hotel, the Port Inn, which has
accommodations for about 200 guests
and is a noted summer and winter re-
sort and a club house is being con-
structed upon the shores of Lake
Wimico, a few miles away, for the
special accommodation of hunting and
fishing parties. The shops of the
Apalachico1a Northern Railroad are
located at Port st. Joe and give en-
ployment to a number of men. The
fishing, both in fresh and salt wa
ter, is excellent and, since the COM
pletion of the railroad, Port st. Joe
has become the mecca for hundreds of
sportsmen from every section of the
country. The water is good both in
the town and throughout the Sec
ton.
Tracts for Settlers.
The Port St. Joe Land land De-
veIopment Co. owns large tracts of
land in the vicinity of st. Joe and is
now offering this land in small tracts
to settlers. The land is extremely fer
tile and is adapted for crops of any
kind, particularly citrus fruits. Every

every assistance will be given them
by the officials of the railroad and
the managers of the development
company, which is a subsidiary organ
ization.
The record Of shipments through
this wonderful new port is remark
able, indeed. Although at this time
only six months old, the shipments of
lumber to foreign countries have
reached the astounding total of twelve
million, eight hundred and seventy
six thousand feet.
Careful estimates show that when
the lumber industry along the Apa-
laChicola Northern Railroad reaches
its height that there VIII pass. through
Port St. Joe 5000 cars per month, and
even at this rate that 1t will take
twenty years to cut all of the tim

this port.
AS the lumber is cut from the fer
tile lands along the line of the Apala-
chicola Northern Railroad, the farmer
will take possession, and as this ter
ritory is developed, and the voice of
the plowman and the lowing of the
cattle takes the place of the hum of
the sawmill. Port ST. Joe will thrive
on the traffic thus developed.
No Dull Moments.
The visitor has no dull moments at
Port st. Joe, as the means of recrea-
ton and enjoyment are so many and
varied.
The Recreation Pier. connected with
the hotel by a wide boardwalk, fur
nishes sport for those who love the
water. Commodious bath houses have
been provided, and every day large
parties enjoy a delightful dip in the
waters of the bay.

lives LOST
BY Scores in St. Lawrence Gulf
and Many SChoonerS as
Well in a Storm.
tBY ASSOCIATED rHEsn

CHATHAM, New Brunswick, June
10.-Conflicting reports made it i'm
possible today to determine definitely
how many fishing schooners and lives
had been lost in the storm which
swept the Gulf of st. Lawrence, Chal-
eur Bay and the straits of Northum-
berland Friday. One report received
today placed the number OF dead at
125. Advices from Caraquet said that
nineteen lives were known to have
been lost, one vessel was missing and
nothing was known of the fate of the
crews Of two other vessels, reported
ashore.
Captain Samuel Breau, of the
schooner, Warren p, which arrived
here last night, said that when he left
the Shippegan on Sunday he heard
that more than 100 persons had per-
ished but he believed this, was great
exaggeration. The vessels that suf-
fered from the gale were small
schooners. Nearly every craft was
manned only by members of a single
family with the father in command and
three or four sons or other relatives
composing the crew.

And There is Now. Intense Ex-
element among Crowds of
Westinghouse Strikers.
tsr ASSOCIATED pRrss,

PITTSBURG, Pa. June 1O-In-
tense excitement prevailed here soon
after 10 o'clock this morning when
a rumor ran through the crowds OF
Westinghouse strikers in the streets
that strikebreakers had been sent
Ito the electric company's plant.
Investigation showed that three cars
filled with lien had been taken to a
point on the main line of the Penn
sylvania railroad, around a curve
from the principal entrance to the
works. Here they had disembarked,
removed their shoes and stockings
and wading Turtle creek had
marched to the shops. They were in
charge of fifty guards.
The strikers, who were forming
in line for parade to Wilmerding
and Swissvale, where the shops OF
the Westinghouse Air Brake Com
pany and of the Union Switch and
Signal Company are located, fell into
line and marched toward their desti-
nation, their leaders urging them to
remain peaceable.
Burgess Snyder notified all saloon
keepers of East Pittsburg that they
must keep their saloons closed all
day the rest of the week, and District
Attorney Jackson asked saloon Keep
ers at Wilmerding and North Brad
dock to close. Wholesale liquor
dealers in all parts of the county
were notified that they must not de-
liver liquor in the strike district.
This action was taken at the request
of the strike leaders.
An attempt to discuss the strike was
made at the annual meeting OF the
stockholders OF the Westinghouse
Electric and Manufacturing Company
by one of the stockholders, who asked

OLE VERIFY EVADES
POLICE OF LONDON
Mrs. Pankhurst, Militant Suf-
fraget, again is Too Elusive
for the Officers.
CAY ASSOCIATED raEss,

LONDON, June 1O.-The elusive Mrs.
Emmaline Pankhurst, the militant
suffraget, again succeeded during the
night in evading the police, who were
closely watching the house in Gros-
venor Square from which she had been
recently conducting the campaign
against the peace Of members OF the
royal family at Buckingham Palace
and other places. Her plan of escape
is said by the police to have been
"cleyerly conceived" although the de-
tails were not made public.
The ingenuity OF the women and
their ability to circumvent the trained
brains OF Scotland Yard, whenever
circumstances demand real contest
of wits are giving cause for keen anx-
iety at police headquarters.
The raid on the offices of the Wom-
ems Social and Political Union yes
terday, like the previous one in May,
did not produce the results expected
by the police, who today plainly
showed their disappointment, The
documents seized revealed very few
names of public interest.

Herr replied that he did not believe
the question ought to be discussed but
he was willing to meet the merchants
of the Turtle Creek valley to talk
over any plan they might. have looking
to a settlement of the strike.
The general committee of strikers
passed resolutions calling on the coun.
ty authorities to disarm the guards
who escorted the strangers into the
plant earlier in the day. District At
torney Jackson promised the commit
tee he would look into the law to de-
termine whether the company had a
right to maintain armed guards.
The following message was sent to
Mt. Herr this afternoon: "If you i'm

RECOGNITION
OF Huerta Insisted on by Medi.
atorS is Endangering Sue
cess of Peace Plan.
tsr Assoe,Arre .srss,

NIAGARA FALLS, June 1O.-A dan
gerous obstruction to progress on a
vital point in the mediation proceed
ings has arisen which again threatens
failure for the negotiations. The Uni
ted States has said to the mediators in
unequivocal terms that It cannot con-
sent to any method of transition from
the existing regime to the proposed
new provisional government that can
be construed as recognition OF Huerta's
administration.
The mediators are insisting that
General Huerta be permitted to make
the appointment of the men agreed
upon here for provisional president,
This, the American government abso-
lutely refuses to accept, not only be-
cause 1t is committed against recog.
milton of Huerta, but because it has
been informed by the Constitutionalists
that under no circumstances will they
accept a peace plan which permits
Huerta to exercise the constitutional
function of naming his successor, On
this point the mediators and American
delegates are blocked. One side must
give way before any advance is made.

MANY LETTERS
Letters Are Received by Con-
gresham Avis Congratu-
lating Him on Speeches.

WASHINGTON, June 1O.-Few
representatives in Congress receive as
many congratulatory and compliment
tary letters from their constituents
when they do something really fine
than Representative Samuel B. Avis
has. Since his speeches on the coal
section, or No. 8, of the so-called anti
trust bills, he has gotten many fine
letters of praise from leading men in
Ills district, No party lines are drawn
in these mtssives, and praise is given
in ungrudging measure" all of
which is richly deserved by the mod
est congressman from the Third.
The case Is so unusual as to deserve
this paragraph. The average repre-
sentative's letters from back home"
are generally from those who think
they have kick coming. Rarely do
they take the trouble to write letters
of praise when something worth while
Is done in worth while and quiet,
creditable manner. Avis able hand
ling of that important section of the
bill in question has oeen equally, If
not more generously praised by his
colleagues in the House. They were
on the scene and could see first-Land

ORATOR
At a Fourth of July Celebration
Here is a Man Well
Worth Hearing.

AS previously announced Governor
Oswald West of Oregon will be one
OF the orators at the big Fourth Of
July celebration on the fair grounds
here. He began life in 1873 as a
butchers boy when other boys were
at school. He fought poverty and
adversely during the hours when other
children were engaged in pastimes.
Three years from the time he became
messenger boy in bank he was a
teller; shortly afterward he was an
official; then he became state land
commissioner. There has never been
a scandal in this Office since. He next
became railroad commissioner, and
during four years secured a larger
degree Of justice for the small shipper
than had been realized in the entire
previous history of the state OF Oregon.
During this time he made personal
investigation by foot over entire d.
visions of railway and as a stockman
in charge of shipments.
Then he, was named for governor.
You know the story Of his election and
his quiet, simple procedure in com
pelling the respect Of the aggressive
and powerful institutions and men of
Oregon for the rights of the plain peo-
pie. You know the story OF his i'm
partial interest in the people of his
state including the criminal and the
proletariate. This man West knows
all about "The huts were the poor men
lie and the chores that poor men do"
He also knows about the power that
rich men have and the work that rich
men do. His life has been valiant
fight in which he has won. The story
of victory is in his face and the atmos-
phere about him is charged with his
modest efficiency. Here Is man
the celebration management is very
proud to present to this community
and for whom the management be-
speaks the widest and most sympathe-
tic hearing.
