NO THING LEFT
ON THE ISLAND

Many persons visited Santa Rosa
Island Sunday to see the damage
wrought Wednesday by the hurricane.
All small craft kept to the lee shore
as high sea was running, and the
bay was very choppy.
Landing at the island was very diff
ficult, as the docks on the bay side
were entirely down, and parties were
put off on the deck of the old half
submerged wreck lying near the dock,
and from there, by jumping, the old
dock was reached, from, which boards
reached to the shore.
Parties who visited the wreck Of
the paviions stated that nothing but
a heap of debris marked the spot
where the Old Monarch pavilion stood.
| Only part of the Gulf Beach Inn
was standing, and water marks on the
shore proved that the surf had beat
on the platform.
Great quantities of shells had been
thrown up, and some even reached
the bay side of the island.

Thirteen negroes, men and women,
were sent to the station at APO o'clock
last evening from box 26, being ar
rested by Chief Sanders and Officers

A complaint reached the station
early in the afternoon about the dis
order which the negroes were Great
ing, and the officers went out to the
place where the trouble was reported.
They discovered the thirteen blacks
in one room, and they were having a
merry old time for Sunday afternoon,
causing such a disturbance in the
neighborhood that the police were
asked to suppress the din. As re
suit of this complaint, the uneven and
unlucly number were all charged with
being guilty of disorderly conduct
and will face the recorder on such a
charge today.

REVEALS HELD At
RAY s CHAPEL

A very successful series of revival
services were held at Rays Chapel
Baptist church near McDavid, Fla.
While the meetings only lasted one
week; beginning June 20 to July 2,
and were conducted by Elder Z. e.
Rice, assisted by the pastor, it re-
suited in nine additions by baptism
and three by transfer. Others are
expected to unite soon also, as re-
suit of Rev. E. E. Rice's earnest and
impressive sermons and personal con-
facts.
It rained off and on all during Sse
meeting but it seemed as though the
harder it rained the more determined
people were to go to church. In con-
nection with the sermons Rev. Rice
used his stereoptican, the slides ex-
hibiting Bible scenes and lessons.
