ODD FELLOWS OF
DISTRICT GATHER
OFFER IN MEETING
ABLE ADDRESSES WERE HEARD
FROM SCOTT Nj. LOFTIN AND
GRAND MASTER w. U. LATH.
ROP. WHO WAS PRESENT.

Seven lodges were represented at
one of the most successful and en-
thusiastic district meetings ever held
by the Odd Fellows in Pensacola last
night, and all who attended will long
remember the gathering.
w. U. Lathrop, grand master, state
of Florida, was officially present, and
he was welcomed in a rousing speech
by Hon. Scott M. Loftin. The grand
master responded happily and feel
ingly, his topic of course having a
direct leaning to Odd Fellowship, the
address having been one of the best
ever heard on like occasions.
Lodges as represented were: Pen
sacola No. and Joppa No. 6, city;
Mechanics No. 8, Warrington; Yellow
Pine No. SO, Century; Powelton No.
At, Moline; Perdido No. -, Musco-
gee; Oakland No. Is, Bagdad.
Pensacola lodge No. 4 was con-
vened, after which lodge business was
suspended, to meet in district conven-
ton. This convention was called to
order by w. F. Henson, special dis
trict deputy, and then Mr.. Loftin de-
livered the welcome to the grand
master, who was present for the first
time in the city in his present official
capacity. Those who heard Mr. Lof-
tins speech pronounced it one of the
very best of his efforts, and the Wis
itors were plainly affected by the
same.
The grand master arose and re-
sponded grandly, as one of the men
put it, and had more of an encour-
agingly and boosting nature to say Of
Odd Fellowship than had ever been
heard in the confines and length of
a single speech.
Following the session, all delegates
and local Odd Fellows were invited
into the banquet room, where very
rich spread was enjoyed. L. M. Davis
acted as toast master, and many short
speeches were delivered, this part of
the evening proving very pleasing.
The adjourning hour arrived all too
soon, many thought, but hope to have
just as delightful time when the
district meeting is again called to
order, which will be at Bagdad at
some date in February.
Mr.. Lathrop goes to points east
this morning, stopping to enjoy an
official visit with the Odd Fellows at
DeFuniak and in the surrounding dis
trict.

Stage at Points
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Memphis, Tenn, Jan. 6.-The Mis-
sissippi river passed flood stage of
thirty-five feet here today, the morn

35-1 feet. According to the local
weather forecaster, the river is ex-
pected to pass, the thirty-eight foot

BOOSTER CLUB IS
To MEET TONIGHT

The Boosters Club, composed of
members of local camps of Woodmen
of the World, will gather tonight for
a smoker and at the same time will
elect officers of the club to serve the
ensuing year.
This meeting is to be big one for
the club, and it is expected the attend
ance therefore will be large. Several
short talks will be made and the club
intends to select officers who will put
life into the organization and insure
accomplishments during 1916.

reserved the right to change its posi-
ton in the light of changing condi-
tions of warfare and the introduction
of new elements such as the subma-
rine campaign.
The state department later had
informal negotiations with Great
Britain and France through their
ambassadors here and asked that
any guns whatever be removed from
the big passenger liners coming into
American ports The two foreign
governments informally and also re-
serving their rights, complied. Later
a British ship, the Waimana was de-
MED clearance papers at Newport
News for several weeks because
4-inch gun was mounted astern.
Still reserving its rights, the British
government ordered the gun re
moved and the ship was cleared.
Since the question of the gun on
the British liner Persia has arisen,
the point has been brought up again,
but Secretary Lansing has declined
to announce any position and has let
it be known that he would not be
committed.
State department officials ex-
pressed the view today that the
italian government would probably
be asked informally to dismount the
guns on the Veraa before she sails
from the UnkeS -sataa-

California Was Once Important Coal Pro-
ducing State.

The records of the state mining bureau
of California show production of coal
in California as early as 1861. At that
time it was one of the 10 oal-producing
states and, relatively of some impor-
lance as coal producer. During the
later part of that decade and through
out the following decade the coal produe-
ton of California exceeded 100000 tons
annually and reached a maximum of 1885,
$50 tons in 1880. Since 1881 the produc.
ton, has been irregular, having been in
1uenced chiefly, up to the beginning of
the present century, by the imports of
Australian and British Columbian Goals,
the receipts of Australian Goals depend
ing principally upon the wheat produc-
ton and shipments from the Pacific
coast. Since 1900 however, according TO
the United States geological survey,
with the great increase in the production
and use of petroleum which began in
that year, coal production in California
has fallen of

States Attorney Dady was willing to
admit yesterday that unless he can prove
that 0rpet gave his former sweetheart
poison he cannot convict the student of
murder. Although the nature of the
poison which caused the girls death has

there is combination of knitting and

one is fortunate enough to have bought

now is knitted in an English vest stitch
with garter stitch trimmings. This
sweater may be had in the soft delft

with or without hood attached.
Another beautiful sweater was rose

biscuit colored rabbit angora. A knitted
hood, biscuit color with rose pink fore
head strap and neckband, was to go with
this sweater. This hood was knitted to
fit the head snugly and finished with
