gulf port for Cuba. The schooner,
been almost completely rebuilt, for
when found in. the gulf she was a
derelict and a menace to navigation.
The Chas. r. Wiebe, as she IS now
known, will load lumber here for a
port in Cuba
The history of the schooner is in
teresting. Built and operated out of
Pensacola for years, she sailed with
cargo just before the July hurricane
swept the gulf, and the next heard of
her was when a fishing vessel out Of
st. Andrews reported her floating
bottom up near Cape San Bias. Re-
covered and towed into Tampa, she
was used as barge for some months.
The fate of the crew remains a
mystery. Captain Parrish had his
wife along with him on the fateful
voyage and what became of them is
forever surnise, for not a trace has
ever been reported. Whether or not
they took to the boats, or were swept
into the raging seas one by one, will
never be known. Vainly have rela-
tives awaited information leading to
the recovery of the bodies, but moth
ing of the sort has ever been heard
from.
All the tragedy of the trip which
ended so disastrously was recalled and
retold yesterday when the schooner
arrived.

MAKE A PUBLIC CELEBRATION.

Whose imagination does not leap at the
flaming ride of Paul Revere, the man who
snatched the alarm from the beacon in the
church steeple, and spread it that the Min
ute Men might win the battle of Lexing-
ton the next day! Tie anniversary is to be
celebrated with peculiar appropriateness
this year-April 10 is to be National En-
listmeht Day
Not only is the historic dash to Lexing-
ton TO be duplicated, but throughout the
country the alarm is to be spread IN the
modern manner-by airplane, by tele-
graph, by telephone, by factory whistle, by
the to1ling Of church bells, by the press and
BY the flashes on the movie screen.
The nation is asked to observe the ami
versary, and there is no community too
small, there is no city too large that can
not hold a gallant celebration. We hope
all West Florida will respond.
Mayor Hinrichs, among the first to iden-
tify himself with the movement, has pro-
claimed Thursday, April 10, a holiday, and
calls on all people to make proper observ-
ance of the day Every true American
should answer the call of the co1ors,' says
the mayor. LET every school child read
'sThe Ride of Paul Revere, let it be read in
the home, in the theatres, in the moving
picture houses and in the churches"
To the mayors plan we suggest that a
public ceremony be staged. Not mere
experimenting, but something emblem

and we have the opportunity for an IN
formal referendum next Wednesday.
Though no troops fave been designated
for Pensacola, it is not unreasonable to
suppose that large force will be sent here
for training. An army Of million is be-
ing raised-they must be trained some
where, and Pensacola offers exceptional
advantages as concentration point.
But the government will not subject new
recruits, young fellows, many away from
the restraints of home for the first time,
and the majority from dry tefritory-to
the temptations of wide-open town. Ii
Pensacola fashions itself a lid now. it will
be increasing the chances of a troop-con-
centration, the advantages of which from
business standpoint alone, need no COM
ment.

TAKING COUNSEL.

Not only is irtemperance the cause of
nearly every breach of discipline among
soldiers, but in time of crisis like this, it
may lead to serious disaster, against which
too many precautions can not be taken
More than hundred of Pensacola's
business and professional 1nen-a thor
oughly representative gathering
adopted resolutions not only urging ex-
ceptional vigilance in enforcing present
liquor laws and regulations governing the
segregated district, but also restricting the
sale or the service of alcoholic beverages
in saloons, service clubs, or any other
clubs. to members or non-rnembers, be-
tween the hours of 7 a. m and D. m In
other words, make Pensacola bone-dry at
night-the time when temperance throws
off restraint, and disorder steals forth from
its hiding place.
Unanimous was the adoption of the reso-
lutions, and the meeting adjourned to
Wednesday, in order that municipal and.
county officers may be present
That the overwhelming sentiment of
the people may speak, we urge everyone
TO attend this mass meeting. But let it be
understood that this is not liquor fight.
Quite he contrary; the liquor interests
have evinced an inclination to assist the
movement: and if the prohibitionists have
harbored any propaganda designs, let
them lay them aside for this occasion.
This is mutual-council meeting, in which
vets and drys must work to a common
end.
OF course the mayor has the power to
establish the new liquor hours. and will ex-
ert it If troops are sent to Pensacola for
training; but the purpose of democracy is
to let the people decide whenever possible,

THE KAISER'S DESPERATE
PLIGHT.

Austria Hungary, completely under the
dominance of Germany, has severed fela-
tons with the United States, not because
even that there is any but the remotest pos
sibj1ity of their coming to grips with us;
but the reason is purely psychologist.
With the overwhelming majority of man

attoeraey feels itself shaking on the shout
ders of the people, stirred to uneasy doubt;
and so it seeks to trick its victims into
further complaeency by counter-declara-
tons.
That is why Austria-though quite out
of sympathy with the methods that have
driven the United States into unwilling war
-U-massaere-is forced to break with this
country; so too Bulgaria will be forced; SO
too Turkey will array itself against the
wicked United States for hurnanity's sake.
But will the German people be bam-
boozled much longer? Are they not rap
idly reaching the conclusion that the
Common Enemy of Mankind is their own
enemy as we'll?
In this dark realm of speculation, only
few glinmers are able to pierce the CEN
sorship fog to guide us-sueh are the in
dustrial disorders, and an occasional me-
teor of daring oratory in the Reichstag by
the social democrats.
OF peculiar significance is the govern
ment's bowling to the peoples demand for
