ion by younger and smaller negro

veyed to the police station, and the

charged with fighting.
Davis, who did not try to get away
was arrested as he walked north or
Palafox street by Captain Cusachs

that q darkey had killed another. The
negro was turned over to Policeman

ROTARY CLUBS
MEMBERS SEE A
Man SHOT DOWN
MANY PREPARED FOR FLIGHT
WHEN THEY DISCOVERED THE
SHOOTING WAS ONLY A MOCK
AFFAIR.

The Rotary club members at their
weekly meeting of yesterday saw
Max L. Bear shoot Harry Burns, of
Cincinnati. The shooting occurred
shortly after the Rotarians had gath
cred for the weekly luncheon and
some of the members prepared for
fight when they discovered that the
shooting was only a mock affair.
Some were noticeably nervous, how
ever, throughout the luncheon. The
shooting was preceded by an argu-
ment, starting when Mr.. Bear inter-
rupted Mr.. Burns while the latter was
making a talk.
VIM. Fisher presided and number
of interesting talks were made.
George H. Hervey was up to his
usual standard in a humorous talk.
j. B. Harris made an able talk or
cotton in relation to industrial de-
velopment.
After his success in staging the
mock shootinS ARRAY Mr.. Burns made
talk that was well received.
H. P. Ball gave each member Of
the club Dixon Rotary pencil.
At the end of the meeting George
H. Hervey announced that he woulG
operate the San Carlos hotel on the
American instead of the European
plan after the first of next month.

Contractor Gray yesterday resumed
the work of sinking an experimental

the city water department. The con-
tractor said yesterday that + thought

When the drill had penetrated to a

DAY ON NEW TRUCK HOUSE,
TO BE ERECTED ON SOUTH
SPRING STREET.

Ground was broken yesterday for
the new double truck house and fire
headquarters, to be erected on South
Spring street, and Contractor Full
ghum, who was awarded the work last
week, is almost sure that he will have
the building ready within not more
than ninety days. He estimated in
his bid for the job that it would re-
quire about 10 days to do the work.
The building will be q two-story
absolutely fire-proof structure, S0x7o
feet, with part of it reserved fol-
housing the great auto truck to reach
here early in September.

LOT OF FREIGHT
ON NEW ORLEANS
COAST STEAMER WHICH REACH
ED HERE YESTERDAY,
BROUGHT A LARGE ASSORT-
MENT FOR LOCAL DEALERS.

Coming to Pensacola on her regu-
lar trip, the coast steamer, the New
Orleans, was berthed on the east side
of Palafox wharf, where a very large
consignment of freight for local mer-
chants was discharged during the aft
ernoon. The steamer went over to
Muscogee wharf for coal late in the
afternoon but returns to her berth this
morning at an early hour, and will
continue to discharge freight, and to
receive shipments, from local houses.
The New Orleans brought a large
lot of sugar in barrels, oats, beer, ETC.,
besides a large miscellaneous cargo,
and scores of negro men were employ
ed to deliver the said freight into the
warehouse before nightfall. They
worked until after 6 o'clock to do it.
This steamer was in the late Gal
weston blow, and while she sustained
no damage to speak of, if any at all,
the elements tossed the sturdy vessel
until some of the men aboard said they
thought it was case of swim before
they were over with the blow.
Some of the men aboard were very
strong in their declaration that the
outside world has not yet learned the
truth about the damage done at Gal
weston. They claim that the devas-
tation was much more severe than the
papers have printed it, and some of
them aver that the death list, they
believed, wos considerably in excess
of what had been reported.

NOTICE OF EXAMINATIONS To

Tallahassee, Fla, Aug. II. 1915.

Tallahassee, Fla, Aug. II, 1915.
Notice is hereby given that exani-
nations for state, special and primary
certificates will be held again in three
sections of the state, beginning on
Tuesday, Sept. Ia, at $50 a. M, at
DeFuniak Springs, Titusville and
Lakeland.
County superintendent and other
school officers are urged to give i'm
mediate notice of these examinations
to all persons engaged by them for
positions in high schools, whether
such persons live within or without
the state.
Examinations for such certificates
have just been held at Gainesville,
Jacksonville and Tallahassee. But it
is learned that many teachers as
signed for work in high schools have
not yet qualified for such positions in
compliance with the regulations of
the state board of education, as pub
hshed on pages 463, 467 in the last
biennial report of the state superin-
tendent. Such regulations, by decision
of the supreme court, have the force
and effect of law.

the state, in that capable and legally
qualified resident teachers are thrust
aside for strangers presenting exag-
gerated testimonials, many of whom,
upon one pretext or another, evade
examination or defiantly refuse to
take it. It is too often proven that
such persons were failures or misfits
where they came from; and despite
all their overdrawn endorsements,
their scholarship is found inferior to
that of persons displaced.

harder than any one else to get GER

Encourage Corn Raising.

Replies which have been received
and fled in the Office 70 Secretary
Lillard indicate that the utmost CO
operation will be had from the farm
ers of the county, and that they are
going to plant a vastly-increased
acreage in corn. This all means that,
with the market guaranteed, the
farmer viii make more money, and
the money which has been going to
northwestern and western marts of
trade will stay at home, and of course
do good expansive work here.
One of the enthusiastic persons who
learned of the Crop Improvement As
sociation's move was Miss Eunice
Thompson, who knows about as much
about horses and their proper treat
ment and feed as many an expert.
When the plan was told her in the
Office of Secretary Lillard yesterday
she said that it just suited her; that
right at the start she was in the mar
ket for at least one hundred bushels
of good corn. She also stated that II
was better to buy corn that way thar
to send off for it, or to take anything
brought into Pensacola.
1t all looks like the Escambis
County Crop Improvement Associa.
ton has set afoot plan to more thar
double the corn yield of the farmers
of the county, and not only do thaf
, very acceptable stunt, but will create
dollars for the farmer in exchange fol
every bushel of corn they raise.
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1915-08-25

The above is a copy of a letter
which is being mailed out by Secre-
tary N. ]. Lillard, 70 the association
named, to every farmer within the
boundaries of Escambia county, and
it explains itself. Although the let
ter as quoted has been only few
days ago mailed out numerous and
exceedingly encouraging replies have
been received, and it will be King
Corn and not King Cotton hereafter
with the Escambia county farmer.
'"The possibilities of this movement
are inestimable," said Mr.. Lillard yes
terday. ct means that the Crop I'm.
provement Association have hit upor
a plan where we can place every
bushel Of corn raised within the boun.
diaries of this county in touch with
eager buyers. Why it would surprise
you to know, to even contemplate
or approximate the amount of money
sent away from here for corn alone
It will not be the case in the future
for we have met with the most pleas
ing encouragement in the movement
"There are people here who vii
buy the corn if they can really fine
it, and there are hundreds of bushels
which are never marketed, or no at
tempt made to market the same, be
cause the farmer has met with M
encouragement, but, with the coop
Grafton of the association, things viii
certainly be different"
AS Indicative of the popularity o
the Crop Improvement Association
move, an excerpt from a letter re
ceived yesterday from BENZ. A. Bow
man, secretary of the Escambia We
neer Company, is quoted.
'1 do not farm and therefore hav
no corn or other produce to Offer

am filling out and returning the car
just received from the association
and intend to obtain information a
to the number of bushels Of corn thi
