DID YOU EVER TAKE
A BATH IN VICHY
WATER? FEELS FINE
Tent City, Pensacola's New
Resort on Big Bayou
Offers This Thrill and
the Features.

The tented city, which was opened
Saturday to the public, is situated at
the Big Bayou, on the south shore
of Star Lake. The site is a restful
one, shaded by fine old oak trees,
hung with Spanish moss, with the
towering pines as a background.
Many of the tents have been erect
ed, and the camp is taking actual
shape. Some of the private tents
are very large, while others, smaller,
suited for individuals or small par
ties. Two large tents have been fit
ted out as dressing rooms for bathers
who wish to spend only the afternoon.
Each of these two tents is divided
into compartments, and equipped with
shower bath of vichy water
Stephen Lee, the promoter of the
resort, stated to The Journal thac as
soon as the camp was in readiness,
the large concrete swimming pool
would be opened, and placed at the
disposal of those who prefer still
bathing to the open bay.
Much work is being done to make
the camp convenient; electric lights
will be installed, and board walks con-
Meeting various parts of the grounds
have been built,
The proximity Of the camp to the
bay and to the bayou offers a fielc
of selection to the bather, and the
! added feature of vichy shower j;
one that can be appreciated after Z
salt bath.
The nearness of the camp to the
bayou settlement makes it possibl,
for those who do not wish to cook
to board at nearby house.

Washington, July g. Sunday
brought no important developments
in the Mexican crisis. The only official
report received during the day was
from General Funston regarding a
small Mexican raid near Fl. Hancock,
Texas. The order to American COM
manders to follow a hot trail into
Mexico remains unchanged.
Neither the state department nor
Mexican embassy had any word as
to when to expect Carranza's reply
to the American demands, which was
awaited with some Impotence. Off
Gals profess a lack of knowledge as
to the time Wilson is willing to wait
for Carranza's reply as to whether
he desires the United States to con-
slider that he has assumed definitely
g hostile attitude towards American
troops III, Mexico.
Although, the release Of negro
troopers averred an immediate break,
officials view the formal avowal of
purpose demanded OF Carranza as
of immediate Importance.
There seemed little likelihood that
the administration would take any
action until late in the week, as the
house adjourned over the Fourth
The administration would take any
action necessary to defend Pershing
if he be attacked, but Wilson would
wait for the authorization of congress
before undertaking an aggressive
movement.

10000 PRISONERS
Formidable German Resist
ance Unable to Stem
Onrushing Hordes.
BY Associated PRESS

London, July 2.-The Anglo
French offensive in France continued
Saturday night and Sunday with un-
abated intensity. The British an
nounce the capture of Frieeourt, a
town three miles east of Albert,
around which there has been ter
rife struggle, while the French have
taken Curlu to the southeast.
The fighting where the French and
British lines join, is of the fiercest
nature, with tremendous artillery
action preceding infantry attacks.
Both the French and British report
steady advance at certain points
between the Somme and the Aisne
sections where the drive began Sat-
urday, while they also speak OF a
formidable German resistance.
The French have taken total Of
six thousand prisoners up to last
night, and the British announce the
capture of thirty-five hundred, but
later said this estimate was too low.
Owing to the nature of the fight
ing it is not doubted the casualties
are very heavy.
Notwithstanding the heavy attacks
against them in the region of the
Somme the Germans have not cease.l
the attacks around Verdun, both with
artillery and infantry.
Germany declared the French were
repulsed at the famous Thiaumont
wood, but the French assert they re-
captured this strategic position and
still hold it.
Referring to the allied drive, Ger
many announces the allies pierced
her first line at several points and
, caused a German division to with
draw, leaving material of war which
the Germans declare they first de-
stroyed. Germany also says the
Anglo-French loss is very high.
The Anglo-French advance is along
a twenty-five mile front and the speed
of the infantry advance is taken as
showing the perfection Of artillery
/, work.
The concrete sheltered machine
! guns that had previously stopped the
| allies were demolished by a bonn
bardment of hundreds Of thousands
of shells, and the infantry rushed
forward shouting with joy at being
given orders to advance.
Where the British and French
lines join, the English and French
cheers, mingled as did the strains of
Tipperary and Marseilles sung by
| the frenzied attackers. The Anglo
French advance to new positions is
described as one Of the most rapid of
the war.

ing made after affiant had sworn the
children always believed their father
was good, and was always kind to

One story which sounded plausible
at first, and which was regarded as
tangible clue, in that it was the
first heard of the reputed shots be-
irg fired, was told to Chief Sanders,
Saturday night. A lady and her hus-
band, residing in the neighborhood,
informed the chief that they had
heard shots fired IN the Fudge home
on Sunday night, followed by the
screams of children. Chief Sanders
brought out the fact, however, that
the shots may have been accidental,
for it is is well known that the chill
dren were seen the following day,
which was Monday. They were found
dead the day after that. On the
question Of these reported shots, It

com, may be questioned today.

Lest the decision of the state depart
ment of education to delay the opening
of public schools in Vermont because of
infantile paralysis in other states should
lead to the inference that Vermont is
now afflicted with an epidemic of the
disease, it should be distinctly stated on
the authority of the state board of
health that here are no cases of the dis
ease in Vermont at the present time. A
national health authority stated recently
that since Jan. | there had been 5 cases
of the disease in Vermont, but there does
not seem to be evidence to support that
assertion. We had expected the state
board of health to say something in refu-
tation of the declaration but as yet moth
ing has been Forthcoming, although now
the positive assertion is made by that
board that there are no cases of infantile
paralysis in Vermont at the present
time. To keep out the disease the state
educational department has seen fit to
keep the school doors closed for time,
amounting to at least two weeks in most
cases.

The Barre Board of Trade is to be
congratulated on its success in capturing
the 1917 convention of the American
Cemetery Superintendent association, a
national organization, as the name i'm
plies. The 1916 convention has been
meeting this week in Norfolk, Va, that
city having been selected last wear in
competition with Barre In fact. Barre
has been trying to secure this associa-
ton for several years, chiefly because the
associations interests are so closely al
lied with Barre's great industry and be-
cause there is so much of especial inter
est about Barre for members of the asso.
citation. Barre already has had the
pleasure of entertaining the New Eng
land association of superintendent and
il is thought that the benefits of the
convention were mutual. Therefore. the
prospect of entertaining a much larger
organization of a similar nature appeals
greatly 10 Barre's spirit OF hospitality
No slight efforts will be needed on the
part OF all the citizens Of the commu-
nifty. as well as Of the various local or
CARNATIONS, in order to give the several
hundred visitors who will attend the
1917 convention the best Of good time
and the most interesting Of entertain
ment Headed by the Board Of Trade.
we should all lend hand toward this
end. Bear this in mind from now untI

vention.
