"seven Keys to RaIdpate::"

At 8 p. m. sharp today, the curtain
rises on the first performance Of Geo.
Cohan's well-knewn comedy, Seven
Keys to Baldpate:" Both the matinee
and night performance are going to
be well patronized, for already numer-
Gus tickets have been sold. Pensa-
celians should not lose sight of the
fact that the Seven Keys to Bald
pate is one of the most prominent
of this seasons bookings. This is a
real Conan & Harris show, which
means that the production carries
every bit of scenery and every prop
erty, as well as a cast that would be
suitable for q New York production.
That 1t is the unexpected which
scores the most immediate hist was
proven by the instantaneous success
in New York of Seven Keys to Bald
pate" which is about as unexpected
as any play can possibly be, and any
one who expects to see anything con-
ventional in the way of a theatrical
offering will be thoroughly and entirely
disappointed, for Seven Keys to Bald
pate" defies tradition, laughs In the
face of conventionality, and hits the
rule of dramatic construction q solar
plexus.

LUMBER CARGO
GOESTO WALES
NORWEGIAN BARK BRis, LOADED
WITH OVER SEVEN HUNDRED
THOUSAND SUPERFICIAL FEET,
CLEARS AND LEAVES PORT.

With a cargo Of over 100000 super
fetal feet of lumber, the Norwegian
bark Bris, which cleared a couple Of
days ago, went to sea yesterday, bound
for Cardiff, Wales. The Bris has been
ready for sea for some days, but it was
the intention of the jolly skipper to
leave until fully ready, and the bark
lay at anchor in the stream for some
time. Captain Mathiassen, during his
stay here, made many friends among
the Norwegian-sp speaking residents of
Pensacola.
Banks Are Overdue.
Two Italian barks, the Maria and
Garibaldi, which sailed from Genoa
December IL, are now at sea for more
than two months, and some inquiry
has been made for them, neither hav-
ing been spoken since the date of their
departure. The last-named was re-
ported passing Gibraltar on the last
day of the year, but since then no re-
port Of either of them has been re-
ceived. Local shipping men, however,
say that long voyage is nothing I'M
usual for vessels of the types of those
now on the way here.
Posted as Missing.
The Danish steamship Marseilesborg,
which cleared and steamed from Pen
sacola December 10 for Copenhagen
via Norfolk, has never been heard
from since leaving Norfolk on Deem
Der 81, and is posted among the miss
ing ships at the Lloyds office, New
York. The impression is that the
steamer, which was filed with a val
liable cargo of oil cake, struck mine
and was sent to the bottom, with all
on board. Captain Fischer, who was
in command when the steamer left
here, was a jolly skipper, and i'm
pressed many during his stay here
with his sunny nature. The steamer
was berthed in the slip at the rail-
road company's wharves, and filed out
with the product from the warehouse
and cars.
Due For Bunker Supply.
Bound from New Orleans for Liver
pool or Manchester the British steam
ship Lonehirst is due to arrive this
morning, for a supply of bunker coal.
Immediately upon arrival the Lone
hirst will be steamed to the coal
chutes, fill bunkers and be ready for
sea probably during the afternoon.

PENALTY WILL
Be IMPOSED ON
ABSENT PUPILS
MEMBER OF SCHOOL BOARD AND
SUPERINTENDENT SAY CAN
NOT SUSPEND THE RULE APP
PLYING TO ATTENDANCE.

Every pupil absent from the public
schools OF the city Monday and Tues
day win be penalized FIVE per cent on
their attendance record for each day
absent. This applies whether or not
they are absent with the written con-
sent of their parents, and the teachers
Of the respective schools have been so
instructed.
1t was the understanding when tAe
article was published in The Journal
yesterday morning that no penalty
would be Imposed upon absentees from
school where the parents OF children
sent a written request to the teacher.
This understanding was based on a
statement from the chairman Of the
school board. but either the chairman
was misunderstood or else he did not
understand the situation. He could
not be reached over the phone last
night when 1t became known that pu-
pills would be penalized for being abb
sent.
Mr.. Harvey, q member OF the board,
however, stated that the board had
no authority TO waive the attendance
regulations, for the reason that it
would be to faisify records. He said,
however, there would be no penalty
in the scholarship and department
records. These will be waived for the
two days. provided the parents sent
written requests to the teachers.
Heretofore in cases where pupils were
absent for causes other than sickness
or unavoidable reasons, they have been
zero In department and scholarship for
the days absent.
Supt. Edwards made similar state
ment and said the teachers had met
during the afternoon and been given
instructions regarding the matter

EVERY MEMBER
PRESENTS SUNDAY
THAT HAS BEEN THE sLoGAL OF
THE FIRST CHRISTIAN CHURCH
MEMBERSHIP AND BIG GATH
ERING is EXPECTED.

Every member present on sunday
morning, Feb. 14th,' Is the slogan that
has been permeating the atmosphere il
and around the membership circles of
the First Christian church during the
past several weeks. Much activity has
been manifested by the membership
committee to secure the presence of
each mmbr of tn congregation on that
date.
Special music has been prepared
by DR.. Mitchell, and Mr.. Holden, Of
Nova Scotia will preach. The chorus
will be assisted by Miss Dimple Nc
MILAN, whose Lovely soprano voice has
been heard many times at the church.
She will be the seleist in one of her
faverite anthems, and assisted by the
chorus choir.
Splendid services and good fellow
ship will be the order of the day, and
1t is truly hoped that ne member will
be SO unfortunate as to be forced to
miss the service. Strangers in the
city always find welcome, and it
is hoped many may find it convenient
to attend this service.
Those who have heard Mr.. Holden
on the few occasions lie has preached
here will testify that his part of the
service will in no wise be behind the
high standard set by the musical de-
partment. The program will be as fol-
lows:
Voluntary, 1.-THE Shepherds Song"
from William Tell (Rossint), by Mrs.
Chas. r. Mitchell.
Anthem, Seek Ye the Lord" (Rob
erts), by Miss Dimple Mcmillan, as

yesterday afternoon. The vote was
IS yeas and IA nays. This is con
sidored the most important measure
