|MASC0TS HAVE
A HARD TIME.
Even a Timber Wolf Had a
Hard Time of 1t and Lost
His Life.

HATTIEsBURG, Miss, Feb. 1S-H
you are dog or cat or a billy goat
or a raccoon, or any other kind Of an
animal, domestic or wild, and some
body invites you to come over to the
headquarters Of the Hattiesburg fire
department and be their mascot take
this bit Of advice:
Don't you do It,
For it's all an animals life Is worth
to be a mascot over there.
Since the death Of the fox terrier a
few weeks ago, when the canine step
ped in front OF a big automobile truck
and was crushed to death, the ladies
have tried several substitute mas
cots, and nearly every one has met
some untimely death.
The latest occurred when the big
timber wolf which Burke Jones, su-
perintendent Of the water department,
presented to thetire fighters was sent
wherever 1t is that good and bad
wolves 60. The wolf became rather
vicious and was irritated by his con-
Anement. So when Oscar Estes, who
drives the automobile pumper, got too
near the wolf the animal made a
lunge at him. In half minute the
air was filled with Estes and the wolf.
1t was hard to say which was the
more frightened. The animal received
a broken leg, however, while about
the worst that happened to Estes was
a couple of barred ones, due to claw
torn trousers.
The wolf may have thought himself
the victor for a few minutes, anyway.
But soon John P. Permenter was
called in and II was decided to put
an end to the wolf. The animal was
drawn up to a pole tap the engine
house and several grains Of strych-
nine shot into his tanks, hypodermi-
cally. Within three minutes the wolf
dropped to the floor and was dead.
The body is being stuffed and Will
he retained at headquarters.
Before the volt was dead, however,
the laddies we're presented with tiny
sucking lamb by Victor Seaman, who
had picked It UP on the road In some
out Of the way place and brought It
into the city. The lamb is too small

STUDENTS HOLD
ATHLETIC MEET

A meeting of all students at the
high school interested in athletics was
held at the building Thursday when
an athletic association was organized
with the following officers: Toby
Herskovitz, president; James Full
CHAM, vice president; Lloyd Morgan,
secretary, and George Hartman,
treasurer. Much enthusiasm was
shown at the meeting, and it is ex-
pected that the season will be good
one at the High school.
A challenge was read from Mont
gomery team, to meet the local team
at football, but as no teams have as
yet been organized, no definite answer
could be given, although it is proba-
BILE that series will be arranged with
teams from Atmore. DeFuniak. Mil

FAIR SIZED CROWD.
HEAR THE PROPOSED
CHARTER DISCUSSED

A fair sized crowd attended the
rally held last night in precinct II,
when speakers for the Home Rule As
sociation presented arguments in IA
vor of the adoption of the proposed
charter. During the rally fish chow
der was served to all present, and
the speakers we're heard with much
interest.
Opening the program, Robert H.
Anderson, chairman of the Home
Rule Association, explained many of
the sections of the proposed charter,
and compared them with the opera
ton of the present system of govern
ment. He discussed the work of the
charter board, and said that the bond
issue clause was placed in the charter
to make it a legal document.
Mr.. Anderson was followed by
w. Chipley Jones and Flo McAllister,
both of whom attacked the present
charter, and the administration of the
city under the commission form Of
government.

ADJUSTMENTS
THE LILAC DOMINO"
MAKES A BIG HIT AND
OPENS THEATRE SEASON

Tuneful melody, wholesome COM
edy, pleasant dances and dainty
chorus girls opened the theatrical
season of Pensacola last night with
the presentation of 1.-THE Lilac DOM
mo-" three-act comic opera, at Sid
Levy's opera house, before large
and appreciative audience.
"The Lilac Domino" was one of the
New York hits, and the company IS
a good one. Joseph Carey and Ed.
ward Crawford, the comic relief,
were entertaining all the way
through. Miss Yvonne Darle, the
leading lady, was winsome in the
role of a schoolgirl visiting masked
ball on the French Riviera for the
first time, later on as the heartbroken
sweetheart of the young count whose
intentions she had cause to suspect,
and finally as the blushing bride-to-
be when everything was smoothed
out. Miss Marie Hamilton likewise
made hit.
Allan Ramsay, as the leader of the
gypsy orchestra, the temperamental
artist who couldn't play without his
pay in advance, Bradford Kirkbride
as the hero of the play, and George
Curzon, the affectionate old panta-
loon anxious to add wife No. to
his collection, are also deserving OF
favorable mention.
The speciality dances by Miss Fon-
tame and Louis L. FIGHTER, and Miss
Charlotte Joy were above the ordi
/ nary. The Egyptian dance of the
last named was perhaps trifie
frank, especially in the matter ..
costume, but that may be because VIZ
have not yet accepted the theatrica
conventions of New York, where in
deed what appears sensuous to vi
might be accepted as rather prudisf
and boresome.
On the whole if the rest of Sit
Levy's bookings are up to "The Lila,
Domino the theatre loving publi
of Pensacola may well consider them
selves lucky.

WOMAN JUMPS
FROM 4 TAx|CAB

Matte Tompkins, white, who was
at the home of Carrie Mason, white,
residing at 406 East Intendencia
street. decided to accept the offer of
a friend to go automobiling, but was
said to have been rather particular
about the route the auto was to take.
The car was driven by Hans Ander-
son, and another member of the party
was a visitor, who gave his name as
Judge" Kelly, and said he was from
Bagdad
All went we'll while everybody was
satisfied. but Matte Tompkins, she
told thfe police, wanted to come back
to the city-the car was getting too
far away, and was reported out on
the Brent road when the protestation
on the part of the passenger was
made. When, after her pleading,
the car kept on to the northward, the
woman decided to leave, and to stand
not on the order of her going.
Opening the door, she made a flying
leap-and fell in a heap, scraping
cinders, sand and all kinds of road
building materials, with her face,
head. arms and knees. She was a
mass of scars when the police, called
into the case, made an investigation.
As the occurrence took place outside
the city limits, and there was no vio-
lation of the ordinances of the city,
the JOY party was not arrested.
