LARGE CARGO OF
NITRATE OF SODA
ARRIVES IN PORT

With the second cargo of nitrate of
soda in less than two months, the
British steamship Strathearn reach
ed port at an early hour Thursday.
The steamer was halted for inspec-
ton by the port physician at an an
chorage across the bay, and detained
but short while. Later she was
steamed over to the city and now
occupies an assigned berth at the
south end of the slip, tying up at
Commandments wharf. The entire
cargo, consisting of about $500 tons,
will be discharged there, it was re-
ported yesterday, for inland transpor-
tation.
The Strathearn, after discharging
similarly valuable cargo, steamed
from Pensacola August Is for Pisa
qua, and the present trip is the sec
ond of three, it was said, which this
vessel is to make, her voyages all
being routed via the Panama Canal
and three of such consignments, it
was stated, to be imported at PEN
sacola.
| Leaving here as stated the Strath-
earn went via the canal to the Pacific,
and arrived in due time at Pisagua,
| a port the same vessel secured cargo
| of nitrate in June. Loading In what
was said to have been record time,
considering the nature of cargo, the
Strathearn, vessel of 2845 tons,
steamed again for Pensacola via the
! canal, arriving as stated, yesterday.
Capt. Mckenzie is in command
and was heartily welcomed by friends
upon his arrival here yesterday.

NIGHT SCHOOL HAS
GOOD ENROLMENT

The enrolment in the Y. NJ. C. A.
night school is very encouraging and
four sections have been arranged for,
namely, preparatory, to care for those
boys who have not finished the
equivalent of an eighth grade; book
keeping, shorthand and typewriting,
and coaching in mathematics and 9TH
er high school branches.
r. L. Goulding will have charge
of the preparatory section; VIM. Tyler
of the commercial sections.
The first regular classes will COM
mence tonight at 1880 o'clock, and
classes will continue on Monday and
Thursdays throughout the season.
Later another night will be added TO
for the shorthand students.
The attendance in the gymnasium
classes is picking up right along and
new members are applying daily.
The first new piece of apparatus
arrived by express yesterday This
is the new punching-bag stand. which
will find its place in the new indi-
vidual exercise room.
Each week will see changes for
the improvement of the building, Blu!
perhaps none will be more appreciat-

ed than the individual exercise room
upon the part of the men who simply
want good workout and sweat be-
fore taking an invigorating shower.
In this room will be found not only
the punching bag stand, mentioned
above, but set of stall bars, pulley
weights, mat, clubs and bells. Since
the room is adjacent to the lockers
no class need to be interfered with In
its use and consequently during the
entire open time of the physical de-
partment it may be utilized.
Gradually the effect of the black
and white paint is showing and is
being thoroughly enjoyed.
For convenience the employed boys
gymnasium class has been divided in
two sections; the junior class coming
on at 7:30 Tuesdays and Fridays, and
the senior employed boys at 8 p m,
the same night In calisthenics the
classes are united, but in recreative
games, separate periods are arranged
to give each group ample opportunity
to develop skill in their own class !.

CHIEF OF NAVAL
BUREAU Of YARDS
SPENT DAY HERE

Rear Admiral Frederic R. Harris,
chief of the Bureau of Yards and
Docks, spent the day at the aeronauti-
cal station Wednesday inspecting the
station and planning for the expendi-
ture of the $4,000 storm damage
appropriation.
While this was the main reason for
the visit, Admiral Harris made an
inspection of the station at the same
time, and will report to the bureau
at Washington. The damage during
the storm was the chief reason for
the visit here, and particularly the
docks which were destroyed.
Plans have already been submitted
for rebuilding the docks on a larger
scale than formerly, and while no
results of the inspection we're given it
is considered that the plans submit
ted will be approved. The new docks
will probably have a much larger
| capacity than the old ones, and will
| be capable of berthing four dread
naughts, instead of the cramped
quarters for one or two cruisers 1t
is planned to construct the docks so
that it will be easy for a boat to get
away from them in heavy weather
without difficulty.
| Provided that there is no difficulty
in authorizing the work, it is expected
that the docks will be ready during
the winter, and the submarine f1otilla
will return here for maneuvers. The
/ K-boats were in Pensacola last win
/ ter, together with the mother ship
/ Tallahassee, it is probable that the
number will be increased this year
and more extensive experiments will
be conducted.

Opera House, and all music lovers in
Pensacola will turn out to witness
this famous success.
In placing his personal guarantee
on this attraction, Manager Levy
feels that he is pointing out to local
theatregoers delightful treat. There
is nothing more satisfying than to
know that Pensacolians will tonight
witness "The Lilac Domino" with its
same production and cast as was seen
il New York for one solid year, and
in the larger cities for the past two
seasons. The organization carries its
own orchestra, as well as the entire

The better guarantee of this at
traction is the fact that it is under
the direction of Mr.. Andreas DIPPED.
who manged the Metropolitan Opera
Company of New York for two sea-
sons. Coming as he did in contact
with such artists as Cruso, Sembrich,
Garden, Farrar, Scott, and other
celebrities in the operate world, it
is surety that a production bearing
his name will be delight. Through
out the South this attraction has
been Landed sky high by the news
papers, and the tour has been one
continual triumph Pensacolians
have treat IN store for them in
"The Lilac Domino" to be seen at

STUBBORN RESISTANCE

Their Situation Still Is Precarious.
hut Leaders Are Confident of

ARTILLERY FIRE is TERRIFIC
Austrians Are Pressing Forward for
Possession OF Asiago Plateau In
der Cover Of Rain of Steel From
Heavy Guns.

MILAN. May 2S.--News received here
day, while still depicting the situa-
ton on the Asiago- plateau as precari-
GUS for the Italians. tended to con-
firm yesterdays reports that tho Italian
forces arc resisting stubbornly, despite
the terrific artillery fire rained upon
them from Monte Verena. The num-
Der of Austrian batteries participant
ing in the bombardment is increasing
hourly. Apparently the Austrians are
awaiting the arrival OF their heavy
pieces before undertaking systematic
infantry attacks for the possession OF
the trenches.
Yesterday the only infantry actions
reported occurred around the ad-
vanced redouhts. All were repulsed.
Accounts of the fighting furnished
by wounded officers. who have arrived
here. tended to allay fears of Italian
disaster. and to inspire deeper conf
dencc In the army's ability to check
the Austrian advance.
The Mayor of Eicenza, who is here,
declared to-day in an interview that
eight towns in his province had been
evacuated, not through fear of their
occupation by the Austrians, but to
prevent the loss of life in the towns,
az all were within range OF the Aus
trian artillery fire.
The town Of Asiago though desert
ed is still intact, said this official
while Vicenza is quiet and the popu
laticn is rs cheerful as the presence OF
| the hughest artillery ever assembled
and the sight Of other powerful arna
ments will permit.
Asked whether he believed the Aus.
trians would be able to advance
through the valleys leading to the
plains, the Mayor said that was un.
! likely.
| 1.-THE Austrians will never venture
outside the range of their heavy guns
in my opinion" declared the official.
Admitting that this is their ambi.
| ton. they must first secure the mouths
of the several valleys. This Is almos,
impossible. Resides there is another
reason. We have an extraordinary
numerical superiority Of troops at the
mouths of these valleys. which arc
strongly guarded. Also in the vicenza
plain the power of our artillery woult
at least equal that OF the Austrians.
| Furthermore. the advance of the
Austrians would be hard climbing
Even admitting that they should reach
the plain. their position would he mos,

eral Cardona on Thursday while the
