RE-TR|AL OF SPICY
CASE IS POSTPONED
MACK sNOWDEN, WHOSE FOR
MER TRIAL RESULTED IN DIS
AGREEMENT. WAS TO HAVE
BEEN BEFORE JURY.

Mack Snowden, the young man
from the western part of the county,
who was tried at the lastSterm of the
court of record, and whose case re-
suited in disagreement. was to have
been tried again yesterday, but the
case was put off until future date.
1t may be that the case will be dis
posed of later in the present term of
the court of record.
This was said to have been one of
the spiciest cases docketed in some
time in the tribunal. Snowden is al
legged to have spread reports about
the character of g. minister's wife,
and he was technically called upon
to prove the reports.
After thus disposing for the time
being of the Snowden case, the court
had nothing else to do for the balance
of the day but to receive any plea
which might be offered, and sentence
all so pleading. There were three
persons arraigned for plea during the
day. A. Hunter, who was charged
with doing business without license,
was required to pay casts or serve ten
days, while julie Robinson and Lula
Patton, misdemeanor, were each fined
SIS or thirty days.

MISSION At CHRIST
GHURCHSTARTED.TO
CONTINUE ONE WEEK
ARCHDEACON WEBER IS IN
CHARGE, AND FIRST SERMON
WAS HEARD WITH CLOSE IN
TEREST BY LARGE NUMBER.

Archdeacon Weber arrived in the
city yesterday afternoon and the first
of the series of services to be held at
Christ church, was very largely at
tended last night.
This is the third visit of Archdea-
con Weber to Pensacola, and those
who have heard him on the two pre-
vious occasions when he has held mis-
sions in the Christ church parish, will
hardly fail to attend the meetings,
which have been so arranged as to af-
ford opportunity for all to attend at
some time during the day, the first
service, a communion service, taking
place at seven each morning, the aft
ernoon service each day at four
o'clock, and the evening service at
eight o'clock.
Archdeacon Weber has held mis-
sions recently in California, Louisiana
and Arkansas, and came direct to
Florida from the latter state. His
time is always very fully occupied,
and it was only through the illness
of the rector of a parish in South
SdLOlAG1g WllC4C 1lC was w nave AAGAa
a mission, that he was enabled to
come to Pensacola for the service this
week. From this city he will go to
Hampton, Va, and to st. Paws
church, Baltimore, and will return to
Jacksonville during Lent for week,
for the noon day service, this making
the tenth year that he has been called
- T. 10 lnxy
Lenten service.
The Archdeacon has travelled ex
tensively over the United States and
the Old World, and his familiarity
with the peoples and customs of
other lands adds very much to the
interest and beauty of his message.
Last night he chose for his text
the name of our Lord, "Jesus," dwell
ing upon the life of Christ, its sim
plicity, its beauty, and bringing out
the fact that when Jesus of Nazareth
was crucified his name was known to
only few, but that today two-thirds
of the human race find in His name
the power and grace and strength for
guidance.
Possessed of a wonderful mind
stored with the wealth that learning
and culture give, soul consecrated
to the service of his Master, and
personality strong and compelling,
Archdeacon Weber is today one of
the worlds most noted divines, man
whose service has won thousands to
higher and better living. The public
is cordially invited to attend the ser
vices. The Christ church choir will
furnish special music each evening,
that of last evening having been par
ticularly beautiful.
A meeting especially for men viii
be held on Sunday afternoon at four
o'clock, at Christ church.

40 CENTS GETS A
NEGRO IN TROUBLE
CLAIMED THAT HE HAD FAILED
TO PAY INSURANCE PREMI-
UM," AND PARTY RECEIVED
NO RELIEF IN CONSEQUENCE.

Forty cents got a negro into lots Of
trouble yesterday. In fact, it was
the worst thing, it was said, that Ed.
Hogan ever tried to get away with,
and Hogan himself said so when he
was turned over to the county au-
thorities yesterday on charge of en-
bezzlement.
The story goes that a woman en-
trusted Hogan with the four dimes to
hunt up her insurance collector and
pay it for her. That was all right, as
far as it went Shortly afterward,
the woman having been sick for some
time, called upon the insurance COM
pany for her benefits, and was sur
prised beyond measure when told that
she had not paid up for four or five
weeks, and in consequence thereof
had been dropped from the roll. Of
course, the agent told her, she had
nothing coming to her.
She knew that she had been giving
the agent the dime every week, and
then she began consulting her re-
ceipts. The latter Tailed out all
right, one after the other, until it
was discovered that the very week
she had taken sick, they stopped. This
was about the time that she alleged
she had entrusted Hogan with the
payments, and he did not do as she
had requested. The forty cents itself
was not so much, she told deputy
sheriff, but "supposing I had died,
where would / have been ?" is the
substance of the complaint she is said
to have made when making the
charge against her business agent. +"
Hogan was first arrested by the po-
lice and thence turned over to the
county authorities.

Christmas Superstition.

The United States is almost poverty
stricken in so far as its collection of
superstitions is concerned, our early
settlers having failed to import many

the left shoulder or start a journey on
Friday and the like, but few Of us take
even these very seriously. We must

THERE'S a hustle In the kitchen

And the flour's being shaken,
And the cream is being whipped.

Don't say she's lost her ribbon
And her aprons all awry;
Don't speak of flour upon her nose
And smut above her eye:
Don't tell her that the pans aren't

The powders quite at fault,
That the heaping cup of sugar
Was n heaping cup of salt;

'Twould be a grave mistake.
