THE SAL WALTON
ARMY PREPARES
TO FEED POOR
CAPTAIN STEVENS OF LOCAL
BRANCH ALREADY AT WORK TO
PROVIDE CHRISTMAS DINNERS
FOR NEEDY FAMILIES IN PEN
SAcoLA.

Captain Stevens Of the Salvation
Army, is already at work on the annu-
al proposition to provide dinner for the
needy families Christmas Day in Pen
sacola, and within few days the boil
ing pots' will be at number of places
on the streets, to receive the contri 0u-
lions of the Pensacola and visiting
people. These dinners are annual
features, and the Army has made quite
success of them in the past, providing
good things to eat for many a family
which would otherwise go unprovided
for were it not for the efforts Of the
Army and it's co-workers.
In the past, baskets have been filed
ferings. A whole chicken has been the
"piece de resistance in the baskets
furnished. and it is the hope and wish
of the local branch that the usual we'll
filed basket will be possible during the
approaching holiday season.
Last Christmas III heavily loaded
baskets were distributed to families,
and about thirty dinners were provided
for the "doWn-and- out" class, who
would have no other dinner on the day
of Christ's birth were it not for the
half. It is the hope OF Captain Stevens
this year to follow up the examples
of the past years, and to improve upon
them If posi- ole, by adding a bit Of a
remembrance the day after. Last year
a few potatoes were distributed, which
were received with thanks.

SUSPECT HELD
IN JACKSON co.
STRANGER is ARRESTED AT MA
RIANNA IN BELIEF THAT HE is
ONE OF THE coNvIcTS WHO
LEFT EscAMRIA CAMP.

Sheriff Ellis yesterday received a
telegram from Sheriff McKown, Of
Jackson, county, telling of the arrest
of a white stranger in that county who
is suspected of being one of the half
a dozen convicts who made their get
away from the camp west of Bluff
Springs, after choking a guard into in
sensibility and shooting down the
trusty, Mayo.
The Mariana sheriff wired that the
stranger gave his name as Bailey,
which is the same as thai borne by
one of the escaped convicts, and to
make him all the more suspicious, ac-
cording to Sheriff McKown, the sus-
pect carried a rife referred to as a
steel acketed gum
Although the person arrested may
be one of the Florida convicts who are
hunted all over the south today, the
Escambia county officials DO not be-
lieve the suspect is CorfVfct Bailey.
However, to run down everything in
the shape of a clue offered, the Mari
anna officer has been asked to make a
photograph Of the stranger and to for
ward same to Pensacola at the earliest
possible moment. If it TURNS out that
the suspect is one of the gang, an off,
Ger will be sent for him.

SERIOUS CHARGE

Thomas and George Bradley, both
white men, employed by the L. & n.
railroad company, were arrested yes

REVENUE STAMP
NO. | RECEIVED
THE FIRST WAR.TAX EXHIBIT
REACHED OFFICE OF CIRCUIT
CLERK YESTERDAY ATTACHED
TO DEED-WAS 50-cENT DE-
NOMINATION..

Attached to a deed which was filed
for record in the Office Of the clerk
of the circuit court yesterday was
the first war-tax stamp seen there
under the lately-required issue, and
1t was Of a 5O-cent denomination. OF
course many others will follow in quick
succession, or as this business pro-
ceeds, for every document Of any con-
sequence is required to have a stamp
of varying denomination attached, but
the first one yesterday was viewed
with some interest by the clerks in the
office.
This work will furnish additional
recording on the part Of the circuit
clerk, for the law requires that he
keep a record Of all stamps of what
ever denomination, attached to all pa
pers passing through his Office, and
this, 1t is thought, is going to cause a
lot of additional clerical work in that
Office
Bills OF lading, which were presented
at the shipping Offices, were all en-
bellished with the required stamp dur
ing yesterday, and practically no
trouble was experienced, but the day
before considerable difficulty was the
rule. the first day OF the new laws
requirement being enforced Tuesday.

RECORD OF THE
COURT
WAS RECEIVED
THE MAYORS OFFICE WAS FUR
NIsHED WITH THE TRIBUNALS
REVIEW OF THE LATELY-WON
CASE AGAINST BOND COMPANY.

Through City Attorney Jones, the
mayors office yesterday was furnished
with the complete record in the case
Of the city against the bonding com
pany, entitled: United States Fidelity
and Guaranty Company, a corporation,
plaintiff in error VS.. City of Pensacola,
defendant in error.
The opinion was written by Justice
Whitfield, and was concurred in by all
of the bench
The case is reviewed in the first
paragraph in the following language:
The city of Pensacola brought an
action on a bond for $4,000 executed
by the Fidelity and Guaranty Com
pany to faithfully account for and
pay over" all moneys deposited in the
Pensacola State Bank from the date
of the bond to November /, 1913. It
is alleged that the city had on deposit
in the bank more than $146,000; that
on December 5, 1913, the bank sus-
pended payment and defaulted in pay
ment Of said deposits
The conditions of the bond were
then quoted after which it was re-
cited that a demurrer to the declara-
ton was overruled and the pleas as
4llS0 ny Inc uS1SIOduL were LnSn re-
cited in detail, these being nine In
number. Demurrers to these pleas
were sustained and the defendant, not
desiring to plead over, it was recited
further, final judgment for the plain
tiff was rendered and the defendant
took writ of error.
In summing up the case, the lengthy
opinion reads as follows:
The bond did not contemplate that
all moneys deposited to November 1,
1913, should be demanded and paid
during the period beginning with the
date Of the bond and ending Novem-
Der I, 1918. The facts that the statute
required the repositories to be desig-
mated for q period not exceeding one
year and that the designation referred
to in the bond expired before Novem-
Der 1, 1913, do not affect the obligation
of the bond that the bank shall faith
fully account for and pay over all
moneys deposited to November I, 1913,
even though the moneys were left on
deposit after November I, 1913.
In effect the obligation Of the de-
PENDANT Is that the bank shall faith
fully account for and pay over all
moneys which may be deposited with
it, by the-city from the date of the
bond to November 13, 1918; and this
obligation continues after November
1, 1913, until all the moneys deposited
to November 1. 1913, by the city with
the bank, have been faithfully ac-
counted for and paid over or until the
obligation is extinguished by the par
ties or by the operation of law. The
declaration shows a right of recovery
on the bond. It does not appear from
the admitted averments OF the pleas
that the right of the plaintiff OF the
duty of the bank, or the binding OBJ
legation of the defendant in the prem
ises, has been extinguished or in any
way affected by any act Of the parties
or by operation Of the law, therefore,
a right of recovery appearing, and no
valid defense being interposed, the
judgment for the plaintiff rendered
upon the adversary pleadings, is af-
f1rmed."
