GATHER FOR WEEKS
REGULAR MEETING

Over 400 tourists assembled at the
w. o. W. hall Tuesday afternoon, en-
joying one of the most enjoyable ses-
sions held in Pensacola this season.
The program was made up of many
attractive features, which were heart
lily applauded. The strangers, gath
cred from about dozen states, APP
peared to have been doing their best
to have good time, and to help 9TH
ers to spend the hour the same way.
The first number of the regular
program was piano solo by Miss
Elizabeth Baya. This offering was
heartily applauded.
Little Miss Glenna Strickland gave
one Of her inimitable recitations,
which was highly pleasing, as one of
the tourists said, ITO the old-time
boys and girls" who gathered there.
This little lady has won a warm
place in the hearts of all visitors, as
well as with the Pensacola public.
A very interesting 10-minute talk
was given by a Mr.. Loveland, one of
the tourists, who related interesting
incidents of foreign travel.
A piano duet by Mrs. Bays and Miss
Iverson, of Iowa, was greatly en-
joyed.
Mrs. Nellie NJ. Boysen, the florist,
offered prize of fine bouquet of
red carnations to the lady member
of the club, who had come the longest
distance as a tourist to Pensacola.
This pretty prize was awarded to Mrs.
Britton, of Seattle.
A piano solo by Miss Reba Nc
Creary was pronounced excellent.
E. Powell, Confederate soldier,
who is always a welcome guest at
meetings of the tourists, was on hand,
with an amusing story, followed by a
very interesting 10-minute talk by a
Mr.. Smith, of Michigan.
Jas. B. Perkins, United States
marshal, gave one of his character
istic witty addresses that was good
to listen to and brimful of good, prac-
teal advice to tourist investors in
Florida interests.
Those present were quite free to
say that the entertainment was one
of the best of the season, and all left
the hall in good humor.

ROTARY STARTS
A CAMPAIGN To
BEAU THY CITY

The Rotary Club decided at yes
terday's luncheon to undertake a
campaign for the Identification Of
Pensacola and the development of
civic pride through the medium of a
series of yard and garden contests
to be conducted by the Rotarians.
w. D. Willis suggested the plan and
outlined the results accomplished in
Davenport, Iowa, where similar cam
paigns have been conducted for sew
eral years. Rev. J. H. Brown en-
dorsed the plan and urged the club to
adopt it because of the beneficial re-
suits to be derived from it. Following
discussion, President Fisher was au-
thorized to appoint a committee to
conduct the campaign. The following
committee was named: w. d. Willis,
chairman; ]. B. Perkins, C. F. Geek,
Harry r. Cook and Rev. ]. H. Brown.
The purpose of the plan is to beau
tify the yards of Pensacola homes
and to develop the cultivation Of idle
ground. Special prizes will be offer
ed for attractive flower beds and sue
cessfully cultivated vegetable gar
dens. The prizes will be arranged in
classes so as to give every family an
opportunity to win. Definite plans
will be formulated by the committee
and the campaign launched as soor
as possible.
The clubs attendance contest came
to a close yesterday and the division
under the direction of Capt. ]. A. Mer-
rift was declared the winner. Member
groups having perfect attendance
records during the entire term of the
contest will be rendered compli.
mentary luncheon by the club.

EIGHT FINES OF
s25 RENTED

Eight fines of $25 each were i'm
posed in the city court yesterday
when as many females, charged with
violating section 372 of the city code.
These women, all negroes, were ar
rested under orders of Captain Of
Police Cusachs, following complaints
filed at the station, charging that
they were disorderly, and acted so,
despite the passing of cars of the bay
shore line, filled with passengers.
They were cautioned, in the remit
tance of fines, to conduct themselves
more orderly in the future.

MEMBERS OF WASP
CREW TRIED ARE ON
VARIOUS CHARGE

Several members of the crew of the
American schooner-steamer Wasp
were arraigned before United States
Commissioner Sullivan on charges
preferred by the captain.
Henry Connought, cook aboard the
ship, was charged with stealing a
clock, drunkenness, neglect of duty
and assaulting the master. The cook
was ordered locked in the county
jail for further investigation.
Lloyd Tate, mess boy on board, was
charged with assisting stowaway,
and win be heard in detail before the
commissioner today,
Other members of the crew werO
charged with disobeying orders.
Joseph Bernard, the stowaway, is
alleged to have slipped aboard the
Wasp at st. Croix, in the newly &C
quired possessions of the United
States, being possibly the first to
come under the jurisdiction of the
federal government since the trans
mission of the islands.
Another fact of unusual interest in
this connection, is that had he waited
a few days to ship aboard the vessel
he probably would not have been sent
back TO the islands, because they
would have then been United States
territory. He has been ordered out
of the country and is held in the coun-
ty jail, to ship aboard vessel bound
for some foreign port.

To CONTINUE TEST
OF NEW A|RPLANE

Repairs to the propeller of the R-5
the big new Curtiss airplane which
Lieut.. RAIDER has been testing out for
the past week, were completed yes
terday and the tests will be continued
today, if weather conditions are
favorable.
Lieut.. RAIDER has been planning TO
make an altitude trial with the new
machine which is the most powerful
at the station. He has been prohib-
tied from doing this since the first
test because of the cloudy weather
and later by the accident to the pro-
peller.

Takinq The Poison Out of Salt.

AS far as the supply Of salt gees
there is enough available to last us
forever. Michigan. alone, according to
the Popular Science Monthly, claims
to be able to supply the whole world
for 1000 years with all the salt it
needs. But no matter how plentiful
salt MAJ be it has the disadvantage of
being u poison, for no salt is wholly
pure. Thus if the poison in salt can be
eliminated vast additional sources win
be available.
Scientists have come to the front and
have tackled the problem successfully.
BY adding solution of just the right
amount of sulphate of soda the barinm
or poison in the salt is changed to sui
phate, and with ii is removed the pink
or browniSh color due to iron salts.
Thus Is made available an unlimited
supply of salt which means more raw
material for our chemical industries.
because the barium bearing salt is used
for sailing hides, for glazing pottery
AUD for making ice.

Florida Clergy Campaign.

Episcopalians of the diocese of
Florida in the raising of the funds
for the pensioning of aged preachers,
succeeded in more than reaching the
amount asked, though complete re-
ports are not yet available.
The collection for the clergy fund
was taken Sunday, February 25, in
every Episcopal church in the coun-
try in an effort to secure fund out
of which aged clergymen and their
families will be made comfortable
through pension system. Clergy
men, upon reaching the age of SO, will
receive a pension and pensions also
will be paid the widows and under
age children of clergymen.
That Florida did its share toward
the fund is the belief of clergy, who
have received incomplete reports Of
the canvass.
