made trouble in June, 1914, That
movement, which was planned and
carried out by men OF the same stripe
as in the present agitation, was di-
rccted against the Western Fedora

THE MOLINO FAIR.

Pensacola should be we'll represented at
the meeting of the Molino Agricultural
Fair Association this AFTERNOON.
The purpose of the fair is to encourage
and promote agriculture>and the raising of
livestock-matters in Which Pensacola has
d deep interest.
Crops are excellent, both in quality and
quantity this year. Great strides have been
made in farm development. Methods have
been improved and problems have been
solved. Not to hold an exhibit showing
what has been accomplished, with the ac
eompanying helpful exchange of ideas and
experiences, would be to suffer serious
economic loss.
To be a complete success the fair must
have the full support and hearty CO.
operation of every Pensacola business man.
Support and cooperation require more
than donation to the prize list. Pensacola
must show that it has personal interest in
this important undertaking. The suresr
way of showing interest is to attend the
meeting at Molino this afternoon.

A REPORT OF WONDERFUL
ACHIEVEMENT.

Chairman Henry P Davidson's report
On the activities of the American Red
Cross tells marvellous story Of service.
While the supreme object of the Red
Cross is to care for our army and navy.
irs work of mercy extends to the darkest
ccrners of the war-stricken countries, re-
storing the wounded, nursing the sick,
feeding the hungry and comforting the
afflicted.
All are familiar with the relief given by
the Red Cross in crushed and destitute
Belgium, but the public has little knowl-
edge of it's ministrations among the Armen
ians, whose suferings have probably
been greater than those of any other peo
pie. More than million Armenians were
massacre9 or driven to their death in a
single year and the others deported into
desert lands which offered no means of
support. More than half a million Greeks
followed the Armenians into exile and the
task fell to the Red Cross of saving
100000 people from starvation in the
barren wastes of Western Asia. \
In Serbia, with -ffths of the fighting
men killed and the civilian population
driven from their families and scattered
over Europe, conditions were appalling
and the need for assistance great.
Russia, Rumania, Italy, England, France,
all had urgent SutferingS to rel1eVe, and to
each demand the Red Cross has responded
nobly, giving the services of thousands of
earnest workers and appropriating in an
swer to the call of humanity the vast sum
OF S12, 339 ,6S1S7.
But dollars and cents cannot measure
the work of the Red Gross. No money.
value can be placed on the succoring of
starving women and children, nor on the
task of combating the white plague, with
which more than half million persons are
afflicted as a direct result of the war.
Tremendous though these undertakings
have been, each step was marked with an
efficiency that proved a marvel to the relief
organizations of other countries. Careful
planning and skillful direction has risen
above every emergency and has carried aid
to muititudes who otherwise must have
persisted.
The report is record of achievement
which gladdens the heart of every man,
woman and child who, through contribu-
tons of money labor had part in
making it possible.

THE FATHER WAS HERE ALSO.

These people, who were kept in the
county Jail for several days. claimed
to have been Brazilian Indians. but
from the quoted confession of the
man arrested in New Orleans, they
are Syrians, and their names were
Georges. They gave that name when
arrested.
The police of Jersey City appear to
doubt the alleged confession of the
suspect in New Orleans, who gave his
name as Georges. They claim that
the real abductors description does
not fir the New Orleans prisoner and
are under the impression that he is
sticking to such statement in an eff
fort to let the real culprit get out of
the country.
Yesterday a telegram was re-
ceived here from the Jersey City chief
of police, which stated that he was
looking for Syrian, whose name he
gave in his telegram, and said that
relatives of this man whom he wants
had been in Pensacola. The father
and two sons, the telegram stated,
were in Pensacola or in this vicinity
One of the sons was cripple and the
other not deforned. 1t is the latter
the police seek as the real abductor of
the siX-year-

MOL|NO FAIR ASSN.
MEETS TODAY 2:3O
TO PERFECT PLANS

A meeting of the Mc!;no Agricul-
tural Fair Association will be held in
the town hall at Molino this afternoon
at $3.50 o'clock for the purpose of
perfecting plans for holding the coun-
ty fair during the week of November
1917. Election of officers and direc-
tors will also be held today.
Temporary organization was effect
ed at the first meeting, when it was
decided to continue the fair, and hold
it at Moline, instead of Pensacola. At
that meeting George Mead, of Con-
zalez was elected temporary presl-
dent, while C. G. Hal of Moline was
made temporary secretary.
1t is the plan of the organization
to hold the fair on the support of the
farmers and others interested in the
agricultural development Of the coun-
ty Circular letters have baen sent
out advising the farmers of the plans
of the organization and calling upon
all interested to attend the meeting
this afternoon.
Pensacola merchants are co-operat-
ing with the new organization while
the Escampia Fair Association will
lend every assistance to the project.

CHAPTER XIX.

The weeks passed swiftly. The pile
of diminutive clothes in the lower
drawer of Helen's dresser grew daily
Now and then a sharp fear clutched
at her heart. If they should never
be needed; if something should hap
pen.
And though she fought against it,
there came to her at times still an
other fear. If the little garments
should be needed-and if yet, if she
should never see them worn!
She tried hard to keep these
thoughts from Warren. She felt that
in some way itre1ected on her wo-
manliness and Her love for him for
her to fear the ordeal that lay be-
fore her.
Ard yet sometimes she awoke in
the night and stared at the darkness,
her heart beating fast with the dread
of the unknown. She would not
awaken Warren; she knew he would
reassure and comfort her if she did
daylight. And one that sometimes
she should fight out alone.
The Thoughts at Night.
So many thoughts come to one at
night that would never come in the
daylight. Ane one that sometimes
came to Helen in spite of her efforts
to close her mind against it was-if
anything should happen to her, would
Warren-would any one ever take her
place? Would he ever?-
Even in her inmost heart she
shrank from the phrase marry
again" Her thoughts never formu-
lated it that way-it was always
"would any one take her place
And then she would picture herself
forgotten, and some one else with
him-some one he might love as
much, or more; some one more beau
tiful, with more charm and more
power to hold him.
And would he ever think of her?
And would this other woman be ieal-
Gus of her memory? And what would
probably have her clothes packed
away and sent to her mother. But
all the furniture they had selected to-
gether for this apartment-what
would he do with that? Could he
bear to have it in another home with
some one else? And the signet ring
she had given him-would he take
that off? And her picture in the back
of his watch-would another picture
be there?
TORTURING HERSELF.
And so for hours she would lie in
the darkness and torture herself as
only a very foolish little woman can.
And sometimes when the stiffness
and blackness of the night had &C
centuated her fears and imaginings
until they were unbearable. she
would leave her bed and creep softly
in beside Warren Not to awaken him,
but just to be near hinl-to feel the
warmth and stEsngsa of his presence,

CAPT. JAYNE'S DEPARTURE.

Pensacola will feel sincere regret in the
departure of Capt. Jayne,
During his stay here he has gained many
friends in civil life who will long remember
him both an efficient officer and as the
true eype of Southern gentleman-kindly
courteous, approaehable, possessing all the
qualifications of successful leader and
executive.
Perhaps no other officer has done so
much to create friendly feeling and unity of
interests between the people of the city and
the officers and men of the service.
In material way, as we'll, he will long
be remembered, because under his adj
ministration the yard as Pensacola will
always call it, has developed from little
more than an experiment station to its
