THAT" MINSTREL
SEAT SALE TODAY
BIG RUSH is EXPECTED AT THE
CENTRAL PHARMACY THIS
MORNING AT 9 O'CLOCK FOR
TICKETS.

The sale of seats for "That" Min
strel opens this morning at o'clock,
at the Central Pharmacy. That there
will be a big sale of seats goes with
out saying, for it means the most
prolific and most mammoth amateur
performance ever given in Pensacola.
In fact, there has never in the history
of amateur theatricals a galaxy of so
many real outright semi professionals
and amateurs as are in this show.
Pensacolians should lend their
hearty patronage toward this per-
Torrance, for it means a help toward
the fund for the two parades that are
to be given. Both the Carnival As
sociation and the Phunmakers have
Joined hands to make this benefit a
telling one, and the efforts they are
lending toward it, makes an assur-
ance of big treat for those who love
amusements.
Every cent invested for tickets for
this performance is we'll invested for
there will be enjoyment galore
Everything in the minstrel pertains
to Pensacola people and things. The
jokes are about everybody and every
thing here. Even the songs are verse
written about people whom we all
know. The afterpiece, "That Affair
In Lukes Alley" is a take off on
things Pensacola, and that burlesque
on "Everywimmen" is a scream from
start to finish, for it "hits" at all Pen
sacolians in the public limelight.
The prices for the show will be one
dollar for the entire orchestra, one
dollar for the first two rows upstairs,
and the other reserved seats in the
balcony seventy-fve cents. The gem
eral admission for that night will be
fifty cents. The show comes to the
opera house next Monday night. Cur
tain at 8:15.

may, since his experiment showed
that his lands will produce more than
three times the average yield for the

A Land of Opportunity.
It is of these resources and many
others that the Pensacolian thinks
when he surveys the new 1,400 foot
dock and its smaller counterpart,
with thirty feet of water at low tide,
and lets his gaze sweep out over land
locked Pensacola bay, nine miles long
and from two to three miles wide,

up at the wharf an hour and half
after leaving the broad gulf. 1t re-
ioices him to see the work progress
ing on the new coal terminal, which
will have capacity within sixty days
of 600 tons an hour, to be increased
as demand requires to 1000 tons,
making the biggest and best-equipped
coal dock south of Norfolk. He
knows, too, that his port is the near
est of any important one on the gulf
to the Panama canal; that coal is
needed for the great tonnage that is
presently to flow through that water
way, and that soon the marts of the
world will be calling for American
s+aa1 and iron In increased quantities.
He hopes to see his city, one of the
Oldest on the gulf-having been
founded in 1593-get its share of the
export and import trade of the re-
vivifed South, the present land of
opportunity for Americans.

PLEA DAY HELD IN
sCOURT OF RECORD
NEGRO WHO WAS SHOWN TO
HAVE .PEDDLED LIQUOR, !"
WAS FINED $50 FOR SELLING
WITHOUT LICENSE.

At the regular plea day session of
the court of record yesterday, posi-
bly, the most interesting case heard
and passed upon was that of Lewis
Bragg, colored, who pleaded guilty to
selling liquor without license. This
man, it was admitted, had peddled
liquor in small quantities about the
streets of the city, and was willing
sell to all who had the price. His
''business was jammed," as he
said, by Deputy Sheriff Yniestra,
who following clue, soon had the
defendant in custody, and Bragg will
renew acquaintance he recently
made on the county road, for his al
tentative sentence was four months
on the road works.
Hal Boiler, who said he was fur
niture repairer, pleaded guilty to a
charge of breaking and entering. He
was sent to the state prison for eigh-
teen months.
Henry Bryant, .colored, 81 years of
age, charged with the larceny of
chickens, pleaded guilty to the
charge of larceny in the information
and was sent up for four months.
Sarah Washington, colored, also
pleaded guilty to larceny, and was
sent to the county jail for four
months. This is the negro who con-
fessed to stealing four dollars from
another negro woman while the two
were in the city Jail.
Leonard Shelby, engaging in an af-
fray, was fined SIS and costs or 80
days, and Ed King was given As days
on plea of being vagrant.

There are not now in that district

YUAN SHI KA| DEAD;
RUMORS OF SUICIDE
President of Chinese Republic
Dies in Pekin.

Pekin, June 6.-Yuan Shi Kai, presl-
dent of the Chinese republic, died
here.
Premier Taun Chi-Jui Immediately
advised Ii Yuan Hung, the vice presi-
dent, of his succession to the presi-
dency.
Yuan Shi Kai had been i'll for sew
eral days with stomach trouble which
was followed by nervous breakdown.
Recently it was reported that an at
tempt had been made to poison him.
Yuan died in the palace, surrounded
by his wives and older children. Ru-
mors that he committed suicide are
denied stoutly by high officials.
Quiet prevails in the capital. The
death of the president apparently
solves the heated political crisis. Ii
Yuan lungs succession to the presi,
dency meets the demands of the lead
ers in the southern provinces.

SEVEN REBELS SLAIN
Dominicans Attack U. S. Marines and
Are RepuIsed.

Washington, June Rear Admiral
Caperton, commanding the American
forces in San Domingo, advised the
navy department that a rebel force of
200 attacked the marine camp at Monte
Christi, Santo Domingo.
The rebels were driven off, seven of
their number being killed. There
were no American casualties.
American marines and Haitien gen.
darmes killed the revolutionary chiefs,
Melellus and Codio, and nine of their
men in a fight near Fondaverretes on
Sunday.
No mention of American casualties
is made in the state department des-
patch. The outlaws were killed in a
desperate effort to escape when cor
nered, and remnants of the band were
being pursued by the marines and gen.
darmes when the despatch was sent.

that he had declared against the just

Bull Moose Standpatters Insist on
RooseveIt-Borah is Vice President
Favorite.
Chicago, June 1.-THE Republican
and the Progressive national conven-
lions both assembled to-day without
any Indication that the leaders have
found the common ground on which
they hoped to establish unity.
Three days of almost constant con-
ferences have failed to bring the Re-
publicans and the Progressiyes to an
agreement on a man for the presiden-
tial nomination. A half dozen names,
any one of which is acceptable to the
Republicans, have been rejected by
the Progressives, who have proposed
practically no name but Colonel Roose-
velts.
The conventions assembled without
an outward evidence of the possible
ty of agreement. Everything indicat-
ed the two sides are far apart.
Not since the party was born, has
there been such a lack of cohesive
leadership among the Republicans.
There never has been a convention
for which so little has been arranged
beforehand. They plunged into their
work today with practically everything
undone which hitherto has been done
for them in the inner councils of the
leaders.
Hughes leaders, remaining confident
in their predictions that the justice
will be nominated on an early ballot,
lined up their forces surveying the ef-
feet of the drive upon them by the
"allied favorite sons" and recruiting
unpledged delegates from the latest
arrivals.
Progressive leaders, unwilling to
say, if they could, whether the colonel
would support the justice, continued
to carry on their fight for Roosevelt
as their first choice.
According to present plans balloting
will begin Friday night or Saturday
morning and the nomination will be
made Saturday afternoon or evening.
The most likely ballot is the third.
1t is altogether probable the vice
presidential candidate will be named
on the first ballot.
William E. Borah, of Idaho, Is still
the first choice for that Office, and
Theodore Burton, Of Ohio, second
choice.
The Roosevelt boom has about col
lapsed, so far as the Republican con-
vention is concerned. A desperate ef-
fort was made to create sentiment for
General Leonard Wood by announce
ment sent broadcast among the state
Headquarters to the effect that Roose-
welt had named the general as the
heir-apparent for his boom. Not a
Pickering interest followed.
There was a rumor that Wood will
be named by one of the Roosevelt ora
tors, but even that demonstration Is
likely to f1zzle.
The simple fact is that Theodore
Roosevelt in no degree controls the
situation. There was time few
weeks ago when his withdrawal, coupl-
ed with formal declaration by him
for Wood or some one of Woods type,
would have created an interesting sit
uation, and perhaps Roosevelt would
have been recognized as one of the
Republican leaders sincerely trying to
harmonic and solidify Republican SEN
timent.

Petrograd, June 1.-THE Russians
continue to develop the successes won
by their newly inaugurated offensive.
1t is reported that up to the present
time they have captured 4SO officers,
$4,000 men, seventeen cannon and fiji
teen machine guns.
1t Is estimated that the Russians, in
their new offensive campaign. on the
southwestern battle front, are opposed
by forces numbering between 100000
and 100000. The line between the
Pripet marshes and the Rumanian Dor
der is more than 25O miles in length.
The line in question prior to the
withdrawal of Austrian troops for the
Italian front, was formerly held by
about $4,000 men, according to the
best available information.

GOETHAL MAY RESIGN
Canal Zone Governor Confers With
Secretary of War Baker.

Washington, June 7.-Of1cial an
nouncement of the resignation of Ma
jor General George w. Goethals, gov
ernor of the Panama Canal zone, is
awaited here, following two confer
ences during the day by Major Gen.
eral Goethals and Secretary of War

HAS General Goethals resigned?"
Secretary Baker was asked.
"He has given me nothing In writ
ing" Secretary Baker responded.
He would neither affirm nor deny
that General Goethals had announced
his intention of resigning.
General Cocktails submitted his
resignation to the war department
prior to the 1915 slides, which closed
the canal for months, but when they
occurred he withdrew his resignation.
which had not been acted upon.
