STRANGE BOAT ExCITES
CROWD At ct. PETERSBURG
Proved to Be Danish Vessel on Her
Way to Port Tampa

St. Petersburg, April 11.--Thoughts
OF U.boats and Germans reigned su-
preme Yesterday evening when q
large crowd at the Favorite Line
landing sighted a strange boat on the
horizon. The people were waiting
for the boat from Bradentown and
all eyes we're naturally In that d.
rection.
Looming up beside the Favorite
Line boat was a vessel OF gigantic
size. which was headed straight for
st. Petersburg. She was running
light and half the wheel was out OF
water, churning up the sea at great
rate. Some said she was a German
boat coming in to escape the English
boats. others said she was an Eng
lish boat escaping from the snara-
rines. The great steamer was in the
inside channel and passed about a
mile of the end Of the Recreation
pier
After watching the boat through
powerful glasses II was found to be
a Danish boat. The name could not
be made out. The steamer was
headed for Port Tampa where she
will probably take on a cargo and
run the blockade TO sea with 1t. The
sar Of Denmark was Dain'ei In
hugh proportions on the side of the
boat and a small Danish flag fioated
from the jack-staf astern.-

PEOPLE OF JAVA URGED TO
PLANT FOOD CROPS INSTEAD
OF USUAL CROP OF TOBACCO

THE HAGUE. Netherlands. April
10.-With twenty-four million dol
lars worth of tobacco. or 100000
bales, still lying in the island OF
Java awaiting shipment to the Dutch
market. and with every prospect Of
sh :pment being long delayed, an ur
gent admonition has gone forth to
the natives there from the Dutch
governor general to plant corn AMI
other food products In place Of their
usual tobacco crop.
last year the Java tobacco crop
yielded about 776.O0o bales. a rec
ord figure. As a result of an abnor-
rally heavy rainfall, this years crop
is expected to be considerably small
er. probably less than 60O,O0O and
the orders Just issued are likely to
have a curtailing effect on subse-
euent production.

Tallahassee, Fla, April 1.-THE
Wells bone-dry or anti-shipping law
which limits shipment or liquor into
the dry counties of the State to one
quart per month to the head OF each
faymil. withstood all amendments
this morning when on second reading
It. went to the Senate Except one by
author to strengthen 1t legally,) and
II went to third reading. The de-
feat of all amendments indicated that
the bill will pass the Senate. Davis
wanted to prohibit more than a quart
In a single shipment, but as many
shipments in a month as old topers
might desire: MacWilliams wanted
tn prohibit even the one quart a
month and Gornto tried to increase
it to four quarts per month, but all
we're defeated after sharp debates on
each. Practically the entire time OF
the Senate was consumed in vain ef-
fGrts to amend this bill. The Senate

Tallahassee, Fla, April 11.-Be-

the temperance committees to which
they were referred, it had been fig
ured out at Tallahassee that Wakulla

Leon, had never in the history of the
State held wet" and dry" elections,
and therefore under the constitution
are wet. There has never been a
barroom in either OF these counties,
pubic sentiment being sufficiently
strong against the sale OF liquors 10

essary to vote liquor out OF these
counties. But constitutionally these
