THAT" MINSTREL
CAUSES A RUSH
CENTRAL PHARMACY CROWD
ED WITH EAGER CITIZENS,
WHO WANTED TO SECURE
CHOICE SEATS.

It was to be expected! The rush
for seats for '0That" Minstrel. The
sale opened at the Central Pharmacy
yesterday and throughout the day
there was a continual demand for
seats. Every indication points to a
great big packed house for THAT
Minstrel Monday night. It goes with
out saying that anybody who is some
body will "get theirs" when it comes
to puns, jokes, and topical songs. The
entire show is devoted to knocks"
and localisms about the people you
know best.
The burlesque on Every Woman
is a scream from start to finish. This
is the first travesty yet given where
so many people are employed to play
parts. Originally there were two,
then three or four, but now it has
passed TO the stage of IL to Il, and
the result is that all sorts of oppor-
tunity for real travesty is offered.
The soloists are DR.. Charles III.
Mitchell, John Frenkle, Johnny Jones,
Jas. Donaldson and Otto Ortell. Can
you wish for a better set of soloists?
Then the funny men are DIR. Ken
nedy, Geo. Hervey, Harry Wagon
helm, Eugene Roch, ]. r. McGrath,
Louis Shuttleworth, Willie Brent and
others. In fact, to properly laud the
talent of all those appearing in this
well formed organization, would be
to write pages, save to say that this
amateur performance will take on the
semblance Of professional enter
tainment.
Every rehearsal is to smooth out
the kinks that might tend toward
amateurism. Mr.. VIM. A. Blount, Jr.,
will offer one of the best illustrations
of a modern minstrel interlocutor that
has ever been seen here bore-in fact,
to be short and to the point-''That"
Minstrel is going to be ''some show"

Out In the Woods
With Pan.

The yellow jessan1ine is in bloom.
Out in the woods the trees are putting
on their garlands of gold and old
fences and stricken pines are bour-
geoning with bloom. Under the wire
grass and the brown covering of
straw and cones the trailing arbutus
is hiding its sweet head from the ad-
venturous breeze, that catches on its
salt breath the fragrance of the
spring.
Bamboo, with the red fruit of the
year clustered about its sinuous stems
is putting out new growth, and part
ridge berries, too, are red and pro-
life, as If to prove that it is winter
still. But here and there a wood
violet is poisoning, and the wild
cherry is already In full flower.
The woods are full Of early bloom,
but their beauty is for those who seek
it. The February flowers are hiding
down woodland ways, too far and
sweet for any to find unless they go
seeking for them. They do not reach
out 60 you in your whizzing automo-
biles, nor do they find their way to
you, trudge you never so sturdily
down the high road. But if you viii
follow the call of the birds and go
adventuring along the banks of min
moved streams, or farther into the
wild, sweet heart of the woods, you
will find these frail sweet out-posts
of the summer.
Walking Is good for the health and
the soul. Six adventures recently
walked from the city to Gull Point, a
matter of fourteen miles, and back IN
day, and came home happy, hungry
and laden with yellow jessamine
rich with haf-open blooms, crimson
bamboo and partridge berries, and
waxen, sweet white and pink arbutus.
The arbutus is in full bloom now
and the jessamine is golden. But you
must go forth to find it. Like Pan,
its home is deep in the heart of the
woods.

DRESS WARM AND
KEEP FEET DRY
TELLS RHEUMATISM SUFFER
Frs TO TAKE SALTS AND GET
RID OF URIC ACID.

Rheumatism is no respecter of age,
sex, color or rank. IF not the most
dangerous of human affections it is
one of the most painful. Those sub
ject TO rheumatism should eat less
meat, dress as warmly as possible,
avoid any undue exposure and, above
all, drink lots of pure water.
rheumatism is caused by uric acid
which is generated in the bowels and
absorbed into the blood. It is the
function of the kidneys to filter this
acid from the blood and cast it odt
in the urine; the pores of the skin
are also means of freeing the blood
of this impurity. In damp and chilly,
cold weather the skin pores are closed
thus forcing the kidneys to do double
work, they become weak and sluggish
and fail to eliminate this uric acid
which keeps accumulating and circu-
lating through the system, eventually
settling In the joints and muscles
causing stiffness, soreness and pain
called rheumatism.
At the first twinge of rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces of Jad Salts; put a table
spoonful in a glass Of water and drink
before breakfast each morning for a
week. This is said to eliminate uric
acid by stimulating the kidneys to
normal action, thus Kidding the blood
of these impurities.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia
and is used with excellent results by
thousands Of folks who are subject
to rheumatism. Here you have a
pleasant, effervescent Whitewater
drink which overcomes uric acid and
is beneficial to your kidneys as well.

FULGHUM LANDS A
CONTRACT FOR THE
BUILDING
BIDS WERE OPENED JESTER
DAY AT OFFICE OF CITIZENS
AND PEOPLES MORTGAGE CO.,
AND AWARD ANNOUNCED.

Bids for the construction of the
Elkan building, to be erected at the
northwest corner of Gregory and Pal
afox streets, were opened yesterday
at the offices of the Citizens and Peo-
pies Mortgage Company, and the of
fer of the Fulghum Company, to
erect the building for a triae less
than $4,000, was found to. have been
the lowest of four bids, and that
company was awarded the contract.
Walker d. Willis is architect for
the building, which viii be a complete
and up-to-date garage. It will face
on Palafox street, and is to be thor
oughly fireproof, and will really
ornament the corner named.
It is possible that the frame build
ing, now occupying the site of the
proposed new structure, will be
wrecked instead of being moved over
to face on Gregory street as had been
planned. There are several bidders
for the work Of moving the house,
but so far 1t is yet undetermined
whether to move or to wreck it.
A permit has been obtained from
the city hall to remove the building,
Mr.. Elkan going to the commission
ers for such permit after the building
inspector had declared it was out of
his province to grant permission to
move frame buildings inside the fire
limits. After such permit had been
obtained, it was then about conclud-
ed to wreck and not shift the build
ing as originally planned.
The firms of Blount Construction
Company, the c. H. Turner Company,
Crona Company and the Fulghum
Company bid for the contract.

Climate Plus Country
As An Asset.

Pensacola Is being very widely adj
Hertised as a tourist resort. There
can be no question as to its claim to
advantages for winter visitors, over
other cities IN the state. Pensacola
has a climate hardly equalled any
where else in the world. There is
scarcely a day in the winter when one
may not enjoy the freedom of out
door Life, when the appeal Of the
water and the woods, and the sports
fand pleasures they afford, may not
be enjoyed by those who have come
from northern climes to find rest and
recreation here, where Nature has SO
few unfriendly moods.
The few cold days that Pensacola
buffers only serve to emphasize the
beauty Of the bright, mild, spring
Hike weather that is Pensacola's spe-
fciai gift. And the enervation that is
noticeable farther south, is lacking
there, where there is always fresh
ness I'm the air, and healing in the
ozone of the pines.
Pensacola has wonderful climate.
The fishing here is unsurpassed.
Hunting is good. And nowhere else
In the world is the scenery more
beautiful. The bay and the gulf held
charms that are ever new, and to the
inlander there is not only the water,
but the army and navy activities also
serve to entertain.
But natural advantages and points
of interest are not all that make up
tourist town. Unless the spirit Of
the city is cordial towerGs those who
come here each winter to cast their
lot with us, Pensacola VIII never be
as widely known as tourist resort
as Il should be known.
1t should be considered not only the
duty but the privilege of all who de-
sire the growth of the city, to take
an interest in those who come here to
spend their winters with US. There
are many ways in which the Pensa-
colians who are native-born, or who
have adopted this city as their home,
may help to make the winters pleas
anter for our winter visitors. These
ways will present themselves, time
and time again to the. individual. But
there is one unfailing way that PEN
sacolians in the mass may help. And
that is in unfailing courtesy to 'tthe
stranger within the gates"
At the last meeting of the Tourist
Club, several hundred residents of
other sections of the country were
present. Do you, as Pensacolian,
ever attend these meetings and ex-
tend welcome to our visitors from
the North? Have you ever expressed
to them a desire to assist them in
any way, by information regarding
fishing, hunting, water trips, loca-
ton? The public is invited to these
meetings, and they are full of inter-
est and well worth attending.
