STEAMER LEROY IS
At DOCK AGAIN

Back from Mobile and Gulfport,
the steam tug Leroy, of the Aiken
Towboat company, was at her dock
Friday, and will probably leave in a
few days for Cuba, towing one or
more loaded barges to Havana. The
Leroy did not encounter vessels in
distress, and did not enter any sal
wage operations, simply going to and
returning from Gulfport, where the
crews of the school training ships,
FL Roy and Mercedes Baltar were
landed.
It was a happy landing at Gulfport,
too, for parents, who had a natural
anxiety as to the fate of their boys,
were on hand, and it was not long
after the Leroy's arrival was an
nounced that there was some very
happy homecoming scenes.

OF BRASS
FIXTU RES MANY

Police have been busy during the
past few days endeavoring to run
down and arrest the perpetrators of
numerous thefts of gas fixtures and
brass faucets, which have been nu-
merously complained of by rental
agents and owners of property gen.
orally The officers have not yet
made arrests, but one policeman yes
terday recovered a lot of fixtures in
a sack, weighing about ten pounds,
which were said to have been re-
moved from a house, and which had
evidently been assembled by some
one, with the intention of later re
moving it to buyer and selling it
at an attractive price.
Brass is the metal sought more
actively, and even faucets have been
removed at untenanted houses. Fix
lures have been found stripped ir
some places, and especially in resi-
dences where the families have been
out of the city for any. considerable
time.
The police are endeavoring to find
out what agency" buys this offered
loot, and thus far have been unable
to get a line on the buyer of almost
any kind of metal offered.

This is the theme of the dashing,
old-fashioned, new-fangled thriller,
''The Good Bad Man." written by
Douglas Fairbanks, played by Doug
las Fairbanks, and presented on the
Triangle-Fine Arts program at the
Isis theatre today.
The leading character of ''The Good
Bad Man" is an eccentric outlaw who
calls himself "Passin' Through" All
that is known of him is that he is a
most cheerful young man, always
smiling, and guilty of some extraord-
mary offenses against law and order.
One of them is the holding-up of the
Pacific express. for the sole purpose
of robbing the conductor of his ticket
punch.
Then the other feature Of a grand
double bill presents Mary Pickford
in 'The Dawn of a Tomorrow" a
beautifully portrayed drama.

CITY WATER PLANT
. WAS NOT AFFECTED

Commissioner Thomas 81. johnson
takes much pride these days in tell
ing how secure from storm and over
flow is the municipal water supply.
Instead of the water being contain
mated as in the past after almost
any heavy rain, the water supply was
untouched, and there was no eessa-
ton of work at the pumping station.
Very different conditions obtain in
Mobile, which also suffered to no
small extent from the storm, for it
is announced that u warning from
the health officer has gone forth that
drinking water should be boiled to
prevent any possible typhoid. There
were a few cases of typhoid in Mo-
bile the previous month, not more
than half a dozen as the health Of
ficer's report showed, but the pur-
pose of taking this precaution is to
keep down any danger of spread.
Commissioner Johnson, however, says
that the Pensacola drinking water
supply was safe at all times, a very
different condition before the lately
installed improvements had been
built there. In the past, even the
fires were extinguished, and it has
been known that several feet of wa
ter would at times back up in the
engine rooms, but such q condition
is not now repeated.

WILSON SAYS HE MUST
NAME TARIFF BOARD
Rejects Proposal That Congress
Shall Choose Members.

Washington. Feb. 2l.-President VIII
son insisted to-day on naming the pro
posed Tariff Commission himself. Rep
resontative Barnhart, Democrat, Of In
diana. told him that Congress favored
the proposal TO have four Of the five
commissioners appointed by Congress
and only the ffth by the Executive.
Mr.. Barnhar, has introduced a bill
containing that proposal. Tho Presi-
dent refused to be Influenced BY the
throat Of tght.
The Barnhart plan is TO have two
members Of the commission selected
by the Democrats Of both houses and
two By the Republicans. The Prcsi-
dent believes that leaving the choice
Of the commissioners TO Congress
would result in endless compromises
with only political ends TO serve.
House leaders do not fear that .
split is imminent, because score OF
Tariff Commission bills have been In
troduce6 by as many members. The
programme in the Ways and Means
Committee Is TO give all members with
Tariff Commission ideas a hearing, but
the leaders seem TO have agreed in ad-
vance on the Rainey bill, which has
the Administration approval.
