BEING MAILED To
NEW DRhf Tees

Yesterday morning questionnaires
were being mailed out to all OF the
young men of Escambia County. who
were not FL years OF age June 5, 1917.
but who became of age up to the time
specified to register June 8, 1918.
There were 253 Of them including both
races.
Just how they are divided and who
they are, it is impossible to ascertain
at the Escambia County local board
in the Brent Building. There does
not appear to be any desire upon the
part of the clerical force of the office
to assist in publicity in this matter.
although it was requested OF the news
papers of Pensacola to constantly keep
before the public, ten days before
June S, 1918, the fact that these young
men had to register, as the board did
not have any other means Of notify
ing them of the statutes regarding
their cases. This was done by the
newspapers, consistently, and the pub
locations Of this city granted space
which could have been used for adver-
Using purposes which would have been
remunerative. But the returns the
newspapers received were cold, steely
glances and are Of indifference.
Sheriff Van Pelt was on hand yester-
day morning and gave all the informa-
ton he had in hand and directed that
the questions asked be answered and
they were.
1t will be some time. before any
Of these young men are called. They
are yet to be classified.
On the Escambia County local board
are Sheriff Van Pelt, DR.. w. L. Andrew
and James McGibbons. These heads
of the board have other duties to per-
form and depend upon the clerical as
sistance to look after routine mat
tiers.

SMOKING TOBACCO
4 SCARCE ARTICLE

Bull Durham smoking tobacco IL
now a scarce article IN Pensacola
About six weeks ago the government
announced ii was going to take the
output of the factory making this class
OF tobacco and send IL to the boys
over across the water. There was
some left in stock but now it has al
most been consumed and soon those
who favored this brand will have to
fit themselves to some other kind.
DR.. Harvey w. Wiley, once famous
as an expert on pure foods and other
stuffs, said Bull Durham was about rs
per cent hay. After his report the
men who went to the hay were sur
prising and they are still going to It
until It is exhausted in the tobacco
stores of Pensacola.
And in the meantime the men at the
front are smoking little nerve steadiers
made of this kind Of smokes" and
moving down the Prussians. The
narcotic sets well with them and the
stay at-homes are all willing to change
to the best they can get on this side
and give our fighters anything they
ask or.

MAN SENTENCED To
LIFE IN PEN FOUND
DEAD IN HIS CELL

VIII Coaton, the negro, who about a
week ago was sentenced To life i'm
prisonment for murder, in the circuit
court, was yesterday morning found
dead in his cell in the county jail.
When the turnkey went on an early
morning trip he observed the negro
stretched out in an unnatural attitude
and notified Sheriff Van Pelt.
The sheriff entered the cell and saw
that the negro had expired some time
during the night.
Coaton, according to best Informal
ton was crazy. When he was SEN
fenced in the circuit court to life i'm
prisonment for killing one of his race
named Mckee, he created a scene.
Before his trial, according to his
counsel, Judge Hudgens. stated that
the man was in an irresponsible con-
dition and asked for a verdict of man
slaughter. 1t appeared that Coaton
had given the negro Mckee some
money to keep for him and when he
asked for it, the fund was not forth
coming, hence the killing.
Sheriff Van Pelt said Coaton was a
man of powerful physique and In his
insane condition. had to be placed in
a padded cell, prior to being sent to
the state hospital for the insane. The
sheriff added that the man had actual
ly burst the padding in his cell during
his rawlings.

man was found dead yesterday morn
ing in the rear Of a building on Pala-
fox and Main streets, by Special Officer

to the coroner, Will l.. Johnson, VINO
Immediately took charge o. the c-se.
The father OF Peterson was- notified
and he stated to the city offCfal that
his son was subject to epileptic fits.
and he had probably gone in behind
the building some time the night be-
fore. when he felt one OF the attacks

Of broken glass, which accounted for
the incisions upon his face. and biting
into his tongue is one OF the results
Of man undergoing such a trial.

cded an inquest unnecessary.
Persons knowing William Peterson

WILL DISCUSS
CONCRETE ROAD

The county commissioners will meet
this morning and again take up the
matter OF constructing a concrete road
from Bayou Grande to the naval
air station.
At the recent previous meeting all
bids for this work were too high and
the board, which had appointed COM
mittee to look into the matter, acted
upon its suggestion and held the mat
ter in allegiance until the full board
could act.
1t was decided to devise ways and
means for the board 20 build the road
under its own supervision and this is
about what the commissioners will
discuss this morning.

The Cars execution has been reported
in many ways from various sources. One
report stated tina. he had faced the firing
squad with bravery and steadness
while another described him as collaps-
ing Yin terror. The reports generally
agreed that his last thoughts had been
for his family and that his last words
were:
Have mercy on M wife and chill

lost souls, worse even than murderer.
and the spot where such creatures are
buried Is passed with shuddering and
loathing.
The body had not laid here many weeks,
however, when a force of the Czecho Slo
walk army, the released Austro. Hungarian
soldiers who support the Allies. passed
This way. They considered that the mon
arch who had supported the cause they
believe In deserved better treatment
They therefore unearthed his body and
buried 1T In consecrated ground with SIM
pie religious services.
But But the body was not yet to rest. The
Peoples Army" consisting of Cossacks,
obtained possession of the grave, and, be-
Ing imbued with the old, deep. religious
sentiment OF Russia, they thought that the
Soviets treatment Of the Cars body was
wicked and would bring divine anger on
the country. They therefore exhumed tho
cody again with much ceremony and pre-
pared to give 1t solemn burial according to
the rites Of the Russian Orthodox Church.
1t was enclosed in zinc coffin with an
outer case Of Siberian cedar and placed In
the Cathedral at Ekaterinhurg under a
guard composed Of commanders of the
Peoples Army. After that the body was
carried away to be buried in a special
sarcophagus at Omsk.
These details concerning the two burials
were furnished by tho newspaper lzvestia
Of Moscow.
Only scraps Of information and rumors
can be obtained concerning what happened
to the Czarina and her children between
their removal from Tobolsk and their re-
ported temperance at Ekaterinburg This
information has come through Russian
Bolshevik and peasants notorious for
their untruthfulness and Wild imaginations
The circumstantial report has 1t that
the Red Guards deliberately kept the deli
cate little Czarewitch out in public square
at Perm day and night for three days with
out food or shelter. At the end of this
time the poor child died of pneumonia
brought on by cold and starvation
The child. whose birth Russia and the
rest of the world awaited with anxiety for
ten years. Is now supposed to be in an un-
known grave. Everybody will recall how
the Gear and Czarina OF Russia longed and
prayed for the birth Of a son for years.
-Four daughters In succession were born to
the couple. and the Czarina nearly lost her
mind through disappointment at her failure

When, at last, In
1904, the little Care
witch Alexis came,
the Imperial couple
were transported with
Joy. The entire
thoughts Of Russia's
ruler were concen-
trated on this child.
As he began to grow
he received increased
devotion from the
Gear. The entire
world was ransacked
to crafty his wishes.
From the strongly
guarded precincts of
the Russian Court
came many reports OF
attempts by reyolu.

After this the murderers burned down
Tho house with all the bodies. The servant
who brought this news declared that he

Russia now groans under q condition
OF anarchy in which local councils called

After the circumstantial report about
tho murder had been received Leninc,
the Bolshevist Prime Minister, announced
that he had received a denial of it from
Ekaterinburg and that the women were
safe.
When the execution OF ex-Czar Nicho-
las was decided on, his wife and children
were separated from him in order that
pity for them should not lead to any
action that might save the fallen mon
arch. The whole family up to that time
had been imprisoned at Tobolsk in ST.
