AMATEUR PARTS
At REHEARSAL Of
THAT" MINSTREL
FIVE OF THE PRINCIPALS EN-.
GAGE IN SPIRITED CONTEST
WITH EUGENE ROCH AS JUDGE
OF THEIR EFFORTS.

The poetical genius that has devel-
oped in certain members of "That
Minstrel" which comes to the opera
house February 18th, is something
wonderful. Last night at a rehearsal
there was a time when the four or
five principals had opportunity to
show their versatility as poets. George
Hervey made the assertion that he
could write the best limerick in the
crowd. DIR. Kennedy averred that he
could do better, Harry Wagenheim and
McGratb intensified the moment with
the bold assertion that they "were
there" too, whereupon Eugene Roch
agreed to be the judge and let the
best man win.
Here's what Hervey wrote:
There was an old maid from Duluth,
Asked dentist to extract her tooth,
He said "Ill not hurt you"
She said, ooh, you flirt you,
Go on, arc you telling the truth ?"
Here's DR.. Kennedy's version:
There once was blushing young
''You must behave in the tunnel" she
cried,
! can't kiss in the gloom,
It's too dark" said the groom,
''Well, somebody did, she replied.
Now here's what Jimmy McGrath
blurted out:
A lady named Trilby O'Farrall,
Wore exceedingly scanty apparel,
She was charming they say,
But if man dressed that way,
He would have to walk home in a
barrel.
Harry Wagenheim had this to sing
out:
There was a young lady named
Banker,
Who slept while the ship lay at an
Choir,
She woke in dismay,
When she heard the mate say,
Nov hoist up the top sheet and
spanker."
Then it reached VIM. A. Blount, Jr.
Here's his:
AS the auto. bumped recklessIy by,
My friend said "Of course we'd deny,
1t is feeling its oats,
But the speeding denotes
That the Chauffeur is feeling his rye"
Up to the present hearing Roch
hasn't handed in his verdict, though
Johnny Jones and Frenkle swear they
heard him murmur to himself hey
are all rotten"

PATH or ECLIPSE T0H4L ECLIPSE sun From Potoss p7

According to superstitious folk, the
total eclipse Of the sun of Feb. 3 is
an omen of evil or good in the war.
The astronomers reported that the
eclipse would be visible as a partial
eclipse in the United State, beginning
in the Pacific ocean, moving eastward,
crossing the north portion of Colon
bia, South America, north of Car
acas, Venezuela, passing over the
Island of Gaudeloupe, in the West
Indies, and ending at sunset in the
Atlantic ocean, south of Ireland. Some
folks believe that as the eclipse was

c. W. T|DWELL HERE
To ANSWER CHARGE
OF WHITE SLAVERY
AGED PRISONER COMES AFTER
CONSIDERABLE DELAY, AND
WILL BE ARRAIGNED FOR A
HEARING DURING THE DAY.

@. w. Tidwell, ST., wanted IN Pensa-
cola on charge of white slavery, ar
rived last night from Gulfport, Miss,
I'm custody Of two deputies from the
United States marshal's Office for the
southern Mississippi district. Deputies
Tyler and Money had him in charge,
and turned him over to the local fed
eral officials. He was Immediately i'm
prisoned in the Escambia county jaid.
Deputy Money, who came over
from Gulfport with Tidwell, is a
brother of the Mississippi senator Of
that name. Both returned last night
to Gulfport and Biloxi.
TidwelI was arrested in Gulfport
some two weeks ago, it Is said, upon
information furnished from the of
flee Of District Attorney Medley. He
is wanted by the South Carolina state
authorities, and is alleged to have
jumped his bond in that state while
his case went up on appeal, having
been convicted of effecting the death
of young man named Walker, it was
stated. It was understood that he was
convicted Of the offense Of man
slaughter, and had an appeal pending.
Upon being released from custody
pending the appeal, and in bond said
to have been $500, he is alleged to
~haya left the state and the bond is
Aaid N have been forfeited. That APP
pears pshave been the record in the
case against him in South Carolina.
He probab1y will be arraigned at
some heur today before United States
Commissioners j. J.. Sullivan, Jr., and
before he arrived here, he Is alleged
to have made the statement that he
could easily make his position so clear
that he would be freed. He is here
now, as an officer stated last night,
and viii be given every opportunity
to make such fight.
Another man named Woods, is in
the county Jail as federal prisoner,
charged with white slavery. This
was the man whom, it is alleged,

brought Mrs. Tidwell, the wife of
the man who was brought to Pensa-
cola last night, here from Alabama.
Mrs. TidweH is under bond to appear
before the federal grand jury when
the body convenes here within short
time, and she has been frequently to
the county Jail since Woods has been
incarcerated there. Woods, who, has
made no bond, and who appears to be
making no effort to secure his re-
lease, is furnished daily with meals
from restaurants in the city, the pris-
on fare not being touched by him. It
was not made known to him last night
that Tidwell had arrived, but it is
understood he viii be witness in the
case of Tidwell when the latter APP
