THE LAST DAY
OF CARS TO BAYVIEW

Bayview as bathing place is losing
its summer popularity as the cool
mornings and evenings advance, and
the crowds which have gathered there
about every day in the year are grad
ually thinning out. This is the annual
falling off, but there are still large
number venturing, especially in the
afternoon, to take a swim in one of
the best bathing pools to be found in
this section.
Noting the falling off in patronage
and the consequent loss of street car
passengers, the Pensacola Electric
Company announces today that. at q
o'clock Friday night of this week, the
Bayview car will cease operations FOR
the present season.
This car has been operated in the
afternoons only during the bathing
season. On week days it goes in SER
vice at $50 o'clock, meeting Bayview
patrons at the corner of Sixteenth
avenue and Moreno streets. It has
been operated up to 9 o'clock at night.

w. s. Hart In "The Captive God.
Triangle Play.

Virtually the entire second part of
''The Captive Cod" showing at the
Isis today, the Triangle-Ince play
in which VIII mn S. Hart is starred,
is devoted to fighting, of sort total
~ new to the screen drama. 1t is
fighting between the Tehuan and Az
tee armies, the story having to do
with a romance of the sixteenth CEN
curry in America. Therefore the war
fare is novel, for the weapons, in
stead of being guns and swords, are
rocks and spears. And to provide
sufficient ammunition" fifteen men
were kept busy for several weeks,
molding the "rock5" and cutting the
spears. Approximately 10000 of
each were manufactured, and an idea
of the labor involved may be gained
fro mthe fact that each rock had to
De painted and each spear decorated
with feathers. Most of the fighting
in the story takes place in the open,
although there are several severe
hand to hand encounters in the in
teriors. ..

"The Captive God"

With his customary care, Thos. Fl.
Ince has incorporated a great amount
of detail into "The Captive God," and
the result is a magnificent spectacle
romance. It's scenes are rich with the
picturesqueness that abounded in the
Aztec country, and its action is tense
with dramatic situations.
In the titular role, William S. Hart
is declared to have rendered another
fascinating performance that will es-
tablish him still more firmly in the
popular favor. He appears, it is true,
sans saps and sombero and six-shoot-
ers, but his magnetism is as powerful
as ever.
The cast that appears in support of
Hart includes Enid Marley, D. D.
Tabler, Dorothy Dalton, Robert Nc
Kim, Dorcas Matthews, Herbert Far
jean and Robert Kortman.

THE CIVIL WAR IN MEXICO

In the early part of the year it was ambition to become the political War wlck of the republic of Mexico. On January he deposed the provisional governor, Gutierrez, and installed Gen. eral Garza in his place. He was still master of the situation at the City of Mexico, and Carranza still maintained his stand at Vera Cruz. Meantime, the fighting went on uninterruptedly, with varying results, but none decisive.
 In June the situation on the border and elsewhere became so irritating that the United States government felt compelled to give official warning to the factional leaders that failure on their part to come to some agreement would necessitate intervention. De spite this intimation, the forces of Villa and Carranza continued to keep revolution afame, and by midsummer the Mexican situation seemed to be more inexplicable than ever. Villas star waned perceptibly. A new mili- tary influence, General Obregon, took the center of the stage He assumed the leadership of the Carranza faction, and his military successes were con- siderable. In July General Gonzales, another CarranZa supporter, fought his way into Mexico City, displacing Gen.
 eral Zapata, who held the place in the Villa interest. Later, Gonzales was driven out and the situation was so threatening to life and property in the capital that, in August, American bat tleships were ordered to Vera Cruz, but were not put into action. In this month, also, an appeal signed by Sec retary of State Lansing and the repre- sentatives of South and Central Amer ican governments asking all warning elements in Mexico to get together in an attempt at pacification was sent to the various leaders. During Septem- Der the fighting on the Mexican border grew more desperate, There were many fatalities before United States troops gained control of the situation.
 On October 19, nine of the principal governments of the American .hemi- sphere, headed by the United States, recognized the de facto government of Mexico of which Carranza is the chief

OUR LAWMAKERS

The Sixty-third congress came to a close on March 4, it's final act of spe- cial importance being the adoption of a resolution to strengthen the powers of the president in the enforcement of neutrality laws. Both branches agreed to the conference report on the naval appropriation bill calling for two new battleships, six destroyers and eight cen submarines. The presidents nom nations for the promotion of army and navy officers connected with the building of the Panama canal were confirmed by the senate, so that Colo nel Goethals and Brigadier General Gorgas became major generals.

INDUSTRIAL AGITATION

Early in the year, the meetings os the industrial relations commission, held in New York city, attracted much attention on account of the promi- hence of some of those who were called to testify. The chief purpose of the investigation was to obtain the opinions of well-known capitalists and employers on the present relations of capital and labor. January 19, guards in factory near Roosevelt, N J., fired on group of striking workmen, killing one man and wounding several others. April 16, in Chicago, 1,600 carpenters went on strike for an in crease in wages. June IA, motormen and conductors on the surface and elevated railways of Chicago, 14,000 in all, struck for higher wages and a complete tie-up resulted. The dis pute, however, was settled by arbitra tion after two days of business paraly- sis. The carpenters strike in that city, which had crippled the building industry for several months, was end ed by compromise wage agreement July 10. Ten days later, strike of 60,000 garment makers in New York city was averted by wage increase of from 12 to 15 per cent.
 In July the employees of the Stand ard Oil plant at BayonIle, N J., went on strike and serious rioting followed. During the lawlessness which pre- vailed, two strikers were killed and many policemen and onlookers were injured. After week of disorder, a
Judsonia weekly advance., 1916-03-15

wage increase was obtained and the strikers resumed work July 22, strike for higher wages and shorter
 hours at the Remington Arms works, Bridgeport, Conn, resulted in a vic- tory for the employees. August 4, threatened strike involving 60,000 workers on womans garments, in New York city, was prevented by an increase in wages.
 In September, the long and not in- frequently violent dispute over indus
 trial conditions at the mines of the
 Colorado Fuel and Iron company was | brought to an end. John D. Rocke- feller, Jr., made an extended visit of investigation to the property and as
 an outcome suggested plan for ad- justing differences which was accept ed by the miners in formal refer endum vote. An agreement was signed to maintain the present wag9 scale and the eight-hour day until | January 1, 1918. The demand for | union recognition made by the miners
 was not granted, but many conces- l olOho WCiO ihodO py IilO SOA1poAJ AAA 1 favor of the employees.
 In July miners strike practically put stop to the great Welsh coal in- dustry. After several conferences
 between MT. Lloyd George, the Brit l ish minister of munitions, the colliery | owners and representatives of the | miners, the trouble was settled July 1 20, and the men went back to work. Further strikes and lockouts were
 prohibited by law.
 As early as June 30, the state of
 American foreign trade showed bal
 ance of exports over imports of more
 than $1 ,000,000,000. This was a new l experience for the United States.
