WOUNDED NEGRO
IN BAD CONDITION

Elder Williams, the negro who was
shot when he is said to have made a
move to draw his pistol when Con-
stable Lowery arrested him at Mus
cogee, Thursday morning, was taken
with a serious turn at the county
jail yesterday and at a o'clock, upon
the advice of the county physician,
was moved from the Jail to the PEN
sacola Hospital, where he will receive
the treatment not convenient at the
Jail.
The city patrol wagon was obtained
by the county, and this conveyed the
sufferer to the hospital.
Williams, who had the use of the
open cell after being placed in Jail
Thursday afternoon, walked around,
it is thought, too much and may have
exerted himself too greatly. That is
what is thought to have caused a
great cange to come over him in the
afternoon, causing the sheriff to call
DIR. Address, the county physician,
who at once saw that the negro's
condition was dangerous.
Constable Lowery, holding war
rant for the arrest of Williams, APP
preached the latter while he was or
the carriage at the mill, and mott
| fled him that he was under arrest.
The officer had been warned that the
negro was armed, and to look out fol
him, it was said. In fact the charge
which had been made against him was
that of threatening another negro
with the gun, and when he is said tc
ave made move to get the pistol
the officer opened fire, bullet going
through him.

SISTER SHIP THE
HISTORIAN HERE

In port yesterday morning for the
space of few hours was a vessel of
almost the exact counterpart of the
steamship HISTORIAN, which was sent
to the bottom about the first day of
the year by German submarine,
carrying with her a total of 10,246
bales of cotton. The name of the
HISTORIANS counterpart was the Nj
cosian, and the latter was also loaded
with cotton. Both of the steamers are
owned and operated by the Leyland
line, and very frequently called here.
Capt. Trickey, in command of the
Nicosian, who was here yesterday on
his fine ship, had been told of the
loss of the other vessel, but that did
not deter him from being exceeding
ly anxious to get away from Pensa-
cola, and start on his voyage at the
earliest possible moment.

NEW SHERIFF WILL
STRICTLY ENFORCE
DAVIS PACKAGE LAW

law will be strictly enforced by Sher-

which the new sheriff made yester-
day afternoon "The law is on the
statute books and that is what they

tic way in which the newly sworn IN
officer replied when the question was
put up to him.
The Davis package law is a strict
one. and it is said if all tipping
houses and the like conform strictly
to it, there win be big cut in presens
day profits.
Sheriff Van Pelt wants it distinct
~ understood also that tipping
houses must conform to the law, and
statement from him on that ques-
ton has produced an inclination to
more strictly observe the law on the
part of some proprietors of these
places. The law prohibits the sale Of
liquors in service clubs. Liquor may
be stored there, and may be drunk on
the premises, the proprietor Of the
organization charging slight
amount for 'fhis services" An OUT
right sale is violation of the law
and this is one thing which the new
sheriff will seek to discourage, and
will lose no time in doing so.
Questioned about his attitude or
this line, the sheriff stated that all he
was going to require of any man IN
that sort of business was to strictly
conform to the law. eff they do this

VESSEL HERE WAS
IN Rain OF BOMBS
FROM A ZEPPELIN

To be in the midst of q rain of
bombs from Zeppelin high in the
air, and at night, and to expect every
second to have one of the death
dealing missiles come from the dark
ness overhead and crash through the
deck of the vessel, with probably
fatal results to master and every
member of the crew, is an experience
not given to many, but Captain Oh
sen, of the Norwegian steamship
Taunton, had such experience, and
when he tells it, he is always sur
rounded by crowd of the most earn
est listeners.
Capt. Olsen's steamer, the Taun-
ton, was at a port somewhere in
England" during the summer. All
was serene, as things go in a war
racked country. The steamer, lying
at the dock, was very close to a tor
pedo boat of the British navy, and one
night the serenity of port and har-
Dor was disturbed by great noise
which came from the air. Practiced
ears knew that enemy Zeppelin was
near at hand, and Immediately these
| thoughts we're made too true, for,
from the darkness came forth one
after the other, and with rapid fire
regularity, aerial bombs. These
missiles struck and exploded at many
points. They were known to have
been so powerful and destructive that
one of them sent 10,00-ton steam
er to the bottom. The Taunton was
a steamer of less than one thousand
tons capacity, and it was realized that
a square shot with one of the death
dealing bombs would make trouble
Expecting every second to have one
of the bombs crash through his ship,
preparations were made to vacate if
any such contingency arose.
When the presence of the Zeppelin
was impressed upon the port, which
the captain did not name, search
lights began to pierce the English
darkness, and this offered another
menace to the Taunton, for the tor
pedo boat nearby was playing hel
searchlight into space IN an endeavol
to locate the great air monster. Of
course the latter sought to put the
searchlights out of business, and il
anything, bombs became all the more
plentiful and menacing for the Taun-
ton. Once located, the aircraft guns
began pounding, and soon drove the
Zeppelin, unchanged, to her home
station.
i The Taunton was the steamer
which brought cargo of nitrate OF
soda to Pensacola from Chile, anC
left yesterday for Colon, on the
Isthmus of Panama, for orders, which
may send here here on a return trip
but the skipper told friends that HI
expected that his next trip to TIL
| UnitSd States would be to Boston o.

REMAINS OF MRS.
A. TAYLOR INFERRED

In the presence of the bereaved
family and friends, the remains of
the late Mrs. Agnes Taylor, who
died Thursday at the Depot hotel,
we're inferred yesterday morning at
10 o'clock the services taking place
at Northup & Woods undertaking
parIors, on West Intendencia street.
The family, consisting of the faith
. er and six children, ranging in ages
from two to IL years, were here from
Alberta, Canada, for the purpose of

and intended to purchase suitable
home either in or near Pensacola.

either during the trip or at regular
meeting after returning to the city.
The trip is being made at the re-
quest of Chairman Hancock, of the
highway committee, who in state
ment to the board at their first meet
ing said that it was the desire of the
committee for the board to inspect the
work before paying part of the funds
appropriated by the old board for the
work.
Every member of the new board
has shown keen interest in the road
