PENSACOLA BOY IS
WITH TROOPS IN
PURSUIT OF VILLA
CHARLES BRYARS, WELL
KNOWN IN PENSACOLA. is
WITH THE THIRTEENTH CAV
AIRY IN MEXICO.

A Pensacola boy, Charles Bryars,
the son of Mr.. and Mrs. Charles F.
Bryars, of 1921 North Davis street.
is with the United States troops in
Mexico, a member of the Thirteenth
cavalry, now in pursuit of the BAN
dit, Villa. He was with the troops
when the attack was made upon the
soldiers at Columbus, N. NJ, some
time since, and which resulted in the
present expedition being ordered into
Mexico.
The first news which his parents
heard from young Bryars has reach
ed his mother, under date of April
10. This letter was written on the
wrapper of cracker box, which had
been folded over and pinned. It had
been sent from the present location
of the cavalry by auto to the states
and mailed at Columbus.
Needless to say, the mother, to
whom the missive was addressed,
prizes the note very highly.
The young man wrote that he "was
having a good time, and was really
happy" He said that the weather
was very cool where he was, and that
he was satisfied, as far as the force
had penetrated into Mexico. The note
was a short one, but as it was the
first received by his parents since he
had ridden across the border from
Texas, it told lot to them.

SIGNS
IN WEST FLORIDA
BANKERS AID FARMERS TO Sc
CURE MARKETS FOR CROPS,
AND INVESTIGATION BRINGS
SUCCESS.
(By J. C. HARRIsoN.)

Bombay, April 20.-To draw word
picture of the exact conditions pre-
vailing in this thriving section of the
"Land of Flowers" would require
about all the words used in the Eng
ish language to express progress and
prosperity.
There has been close organization
perfected among business men gen.
orally which has touched and which is
still touching the agricultural inter
ests of this entire section.
When it became known that cotton
could not be grown here any longer,
owing to boil weevil conditions, the
business men became interested in
plan to aid farmers who might de-
sire to diversity.
About one year ago meeting of
bankers and business men was called
at Chipley for the purpose of taking
concerted action in the interest of all
farmers of this section.
At this meeting which had to do
with securing a market for the agri-
~;-ltural produce of the section, the
bankers and leading business men of
Chipley, Bombay, Graceville, and Cot
tondale, were present, and it was de-
termined to raise only what had a
ready cash sale.
Chipley interests agreed to handle
the corn and velvet bean crop of this
section and to pay cash for the whole
crop on delivery.
| Bombay interests agreed to handle
all the rice and meat which the farm
ers could grow here
Graceville and Cottondale assured
| the meeting that eithe rcattle, hogs.
corn, beans, potatoes or feed stuff
would find a ready sale at either of
those places at any time.
AS a consequence of the ChipIey
meeting rice-cleaning mill and a
! general feed plant was erected at
Bombay. This rice mill has cleaned
and prepared more than 1000 bushels
Of rice during the past winter. This
rice and much more was grown IN
this section of West Florida last year.
It is expected that a much larger
amount will be grown this year.
Cattle raising has taken a hold
upon the farmers Of this section
while hogs, corn, beans, potatoes, sy.
rup and many other articles raised on
the farm are finding ready sale fol
cash in every town of any conse.
quence in Holmes, Washington, OF
Jackson counties.
Yesterday Mr.. William Session.:
shipped car load of hogs from here
to New Orleans and he expects Il
make other shipments to that mar
ket again in the near future. In yes
terday's shipment there were ninety

EASTER MUSIC At

IN KEEPING WITH TIME-HON-

In keeping with a time-honored Gus
tom, the choir of st. Michael's church
has prepared a brilliant musical pro-
gram for its part in the divine serv-
ices Easter Sunday. The principal
musical rendition will begin Sunday
morning at 10 o'clock, thirty minutes
before the solemn high mass.
Sunday evening will mark the close

musical program will be the congre-
gational singing. Extra seats have
been provided to take care of the
crowds, and Catholics, as well as non.
Catholics, will be welcome at all the
Easter services. The chorus will be
under the direction of Charles ]. Her
bert, and will render the following

seven hogs, weighing from 100 to 500
pounds. The car contained ice to
keep the porkers cool until they
reached their destination in the Cres-
cent City.
/ am informed that a number of
farmers in this section are this year
giving special attention to growing
early sweet potatoes. At least fifty
acres have been set out in sweet po-
tatoes this spring within very short
distance of Bombay. The Bombay
board of trade sent a farmer to Bald
win county, Alabama, to study sweet
potato culture there in order that they
may be grown all the more success
fully in this locality.
Such are the conditions here. On
every hand there is the appearance Of
progressive farming and thriving
business conditions generally.
Bombay is one of the new towns of
West Florida. While 1t was only a
very small way-side village a few
years ago, today it has many beauti-
full brick and stone buildings, water
works, paved sidewalks, two banks
and other business institutions which
would do credit to any section of the
entire south.
These and many other things might
be megaphoned to the universe so
that all may know that Bombay is
one of the hveliest of the many live
towns of West Florida and the entire
south.

ANOTHER ALLEGED
WHITE SLAVE CASE
GEORGIA MAN NAMED B. T.
BELLFLoWER LOCKED UP TO
AWAIT ACTION OF THE FED
ERAL GRAND JURY.

Another alleged white slave case
came to light yesterday when a white
man named B. T. BeIlfower, of Balm
bridge, Ca, was brought to the city
and placed in the county jail, to await
the action of the next federal grand
jury.
Not much was learned about the
matter, except that the case was
made in one of the counties in West
Florida and in the jurisdiction of the
federal court for the northern dis
trict of Florida. The alleged viola
ton of the white slave statute con-
sisted in transporting female into
Florida for immoral purposes.
The prisoner has his left hand off.
and appears to have been a farmer.

SUPPLIES

A departure has been made in the

All of the equipment of the first
district will be cared for at this new
depot. The lots are in the city limits
