DOLL SHOW AT FAIR.

Miss Fannie Caldwell, superinten-
dent Of the Woman's Department Of
the Escambia County Fair, announces
that the interest in the doll show to
be given at the fair is very great, and
the entries are coming in very rap
idly.
Il have been both surprised and
encouraged" said Miss Caldwell, "at
the great amount Of interest aroused
by the press notices concerning the
doll exhibit at the fair, and should
be glad if you would tell the public
just a little more about what we
hope to do. In the first place, it is
our intention to make the Doll Show
one Of the leading features Of the
fair, and to this end we are arrang-
ing the exhibit in such 4 way as to
interest just as many as possible. We
want everyone to take an interest in
this feature, and we think they will,
for the children are sure to be inter-
ested, and the parents will like the
show for the sake of the little girls
and who knows, there may even be
some boys who will want to enter in
this contest. The prizes are to be
well worth while, and are to include
cash premiums for the prettiest
dressed doll, the most unique doll and
the oldest doll. The dolls may be
entered by children or adults the
doll takes the prize, it is sot who
dresses the doll or who eTlers the
doll.

returned from her summer vacation
attended a doh show in Cleveland

anything to equal the interest in this
exhibit. The whole city was interest

HIS HOPES FOR FORTUNE
Failure to Find Mysterious Former
Patentee Loses Panama Oil
Lands for Discoverer.

San Francisco, Jan. Fired Robinson
at midnight lost his last chance to keep
possession of Panama oil lands worth
s. 20, ,OO0.
Emil Rutherbeck. the mysterious wan
derer, has not been found. He originally
patented the lands, and the Panama gov
ernment informed Robinson that unless
he could produce Rutherbeck before jan
uary l, 1915 the lands would revert to the
state.
Robinson had patented the lands, not
knowing Of previous patentee who had
discovered and developed oil and had
been offered S2,5OO,OOO for the property by
the Standard Oil Company when the
blow fell.
He hastened to this country and has
been searching diligently for Rutherbeck

keenest interest among the members of
the Latin-American diplomatic corps,
who see in the note evidence that the
United States is going to press vigorously
the rights Of all the neutral nations in
the three Americas. The Latin-American
nations have suffered equally with the
United States from the rigid policy which
Great Britain has adopted regarding
shipping, and they believe the situation
will be remedied by the clear and en-
phatic position which the United States
has taken on the subject.
Officials yesterday were inclined to
doubt that the alleged policy Of Japan of
interfering with shipping in the Pacific,
as complained of by the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company, would cause a note
similar to that to Great Britain to be
sent to the Japanese government. 1t was
pointed out that Japan's alleged activi-
ties along this line have not been so ex-
tensive.
The State Department was advised
by Ambassador Page, at London yes

of the Bzura and Rawka rivers.

% losses have been heavy, due to
the accuracy of the German artillery

been much heavier. At some points

slaughter of the German soldiers. In

Germans attempted to assume the Of
fensive against our lines. the field is
covered in some places with bodies thst
