LIEUT.. III. T. SMITH
OF MARIANNA is
DEAD IN FRANCE

Mariana, Nov. 2S.-Lieutenant T.
Hentz Smith, son Of Major J. D. Smith,
Of Mariana is dead in France, accord
ing to word received here today from
Red Cross nurse who attended the
young soldier during his last illness.
The letter was dated October "a, and
was dictated by 1t. Smith before his
death.
The cause OF Smiths death is mol
known since neither his latter nor that
of his nurse gives this information.
That his illness was short i borne out
by the receipt of a letter dated Oc
tober IL in which he said he was in
perfect health.
Smith was a graduate of the law
school of the University of Florida
and a practitioner in Mariannt, where
he also held the office of justice Of the
peace previous to enlistment. He was
first sent to Ft. Oglethrope and later
to Camp Joseph Johnston and had been
in France less than six weeks.
The death Of the young soldier
caused universal grief in Mariana
where by unanimous consent every
store, office, bank and place Of busi-
ness closed yesterday afternoon at 3
o'clock in memory of the dead soldier.
A memorial service was held in the
Methodist church today.

BLU E JACKET
IS POISO N ED
IN PENSACOLA
ID. ]. MORGAN is KILLED BY STRONG
NOPIATE; INVESTIGATION ORDEh-
ED BY NAVAL AUTHORITIES.

A bluejecket named d. J. Morgan
was poisoned and died Lar night, ac-
cording to Dr. w. D. MOBILES, city ply
sicion. That the man was poisoned
was decided definitely after an in
vestigation by Drf Mobiles had disclos-
ed tie fact that Morgan had died from
the effects of a powerful opiate. The
Naval Air Station officials were mott
fed by the local police and have or
dered an immediate investigation OF
the death of the sailor. Morgan s
body was taken to the Woods Under
taking establishment where an inquest
will be held by order of Coroner w.
J. Johnson today.
About ten-thirty last night the po-
lice received a call to come up on
Gregory Street and pick up a man
lying in the gutter in front Of house
number II. The man, who proved to
be d. J. Morgan, was taken 10 the po-
lice station where he died at 1920 this
morning, despite the efforts of the city
physician who attend the man when he
was first brought in and put in the
hospital ward.

Montgomery Team No Match
For Locals. Army Captain
Is Lone Star.
MIGHTY CHORUS
SINGS AMERICA
Nearly Thousand Sailors Raise
Voices in Patriotic Songs
Between Halves.

Four thousand PenSacO1ians wit
messed what proved to be a somewhat
one-sided game, the Navy eleven from
the Naval Air Station trouncing the
Army Aviator eleven at Maxent Park
yesterday afternoon to the tune of 80
to O.. Contrary to advance reports on
the relative strength Of the wo teams.
the Navy bunch outweighed the Army
eleven by at least 20 pounds to the
man, and the all-American calibre Of
their players far outclassed their op-
ponents with the exception Of the
Army captain, Tibbets.
Tibbets, a former Carlisle star, by
his individual play was largely re-
sponsible for holding the score, rolled
up against his team by the navy lads,
within a reasonable limit, everything
considered. Time and again his bril-
liant work on the defense was the SAL
vation of the Montgomery eleven, his
teammates displaying poor sticking
qualities. Purdy and Murdoch starred
for the Navy team, the former run
ming his team faultlessly for the most
part, and the latter proving himself
the fastest and slipperiest back on
the gridiron that afternoon.
The Navy scored two touchdowns
the first quarter, one the second, none
the third and two in the last period,
and succeeded in kicking two goals,
bringing the total score up to 80.
During the intermission between the
halves, Captain Bennett OF the Naval
Air Station. requested all Of the Navy
men to gather on the south side OF the
field, where, with barred heads, they
raised their voices in the national an
them and America" The chorus, un-
der the direction of Musical Director
TroxeH of the Y. NJ. C.. A., numbered
nearly thousand, and their selections
brought forth a roar OF applause from
the rest of the spectators. They were
accompanied by the station band
which rendered several selections dur
ing the game.
Last night the Army eleven were
entertained at a dinner by Manager
Charles Hervey Of the San Carlos Ho
tel, which proved to be a very merry
affair with speeches and musical Sc
lections by the diners.
Next Saturday, week, the Navy
team will play return game with
Tulane University at Maxent Park, if
plans which are now under way to
c1inch the game carry through. Last
Saturday this team held the Navy to
a scoreless tie.

GARDEN STREET
TO BE PAVED
SOON, BELIEF
FEDERAL ACTION FREES $4,000
OF BOND ISSUE NOT NOW TO BE
USED AS WAS PLANNED.

In letter received last night by
Mayor Sanders the Capital Issues
Committee indicates that the city is
now free to sell the bonds voted for
the improvements OF streets, which
were a part of the S2i0,0OO issue ap-
proved at recent election.
This will free a sum Of about Si10,-
600, when the bonds have been sold.
1t is probable that bonds from this
source will be used for the repaving
Of Garden street west and the laying
of a sewer to serve the section of the
city along DeViIlier street and on the
road to the reservation.
OF the original sum approved $780,
900 was for the Improvement of streets
by paving and laying of sewer in the
section of the city where it was pro-
posed to erect over 100 houses for the
accommodation of shipyard employees
The company having called this Off
some weeks ago. it is probable that
another vote as to the use Of this
will be required before it can
be used for any other purpose, city
say. IT is proposed to adver-
tise for the sale Of the bonds at once
and then advertise the contracts for
the work.

RED CROSS TO
GIVE PAGEANT
i'm H0LIDA US
PART OF OBSERVANCE OF GREAT
NATIONWIDE CHRISTMAS ROLL
GALL Is AFFAIR.
.--.-.-I-J

A great Red Cross pageant is to be
a part Of Pensacola's observance Of
the Christmas Roll Call. This was
definitely decided upon by the Red
Cross Pageant committee following
the conference held i'm Jacksonville,
at which Pensacola was represented
by w. X. Hyer, Chairman of the Roll
Call Committee, and Sidney J. Levey,
publicity chairman.
Miss Elizabeth Adams and Miss
Grace Hamilton will be associated
with Mr.. Levey in making the pageant
the greatest public demonstration ever
held in the city.
Mr.. Hyer said last night: "At the
conference plans were outlined and
methods discussed for the Christmas
Roll Call, which is to enroll every
man and woman in Escambia coun-
ty.
sThe Red Cross is dear TO the
American people, for it was founded
by an American woman, and it goes
out in its errands OF mercy in time
of peace as well as in time of war.
There is great need today for its SER
vices, in spite OF peace having been
signed, and it is expected that every
adult person in the county will be-
come member. The dues are but one
dollar a year.
1T will be a volunteer offering. In
great measure, for no one will fail to
become a member in this Christmas
drive who is able to do so, If we may
judge from the past generous attitude
toward the Red Cross and its work,
which has stood for so much in the
community life, which it touched very
closely in the influenza epidemic, and
in the work that has been accomplish
ed in other ways, through the civilian
relief"

u. S. Employment Service to
Try to Place Discharged
Service Men.
MEN ARE NEEDED
IN ESSENTIALS
Col Hughes to Lend His Every
Effort to Enlisted Men
From His Fort

Railroads, the postal system and all
forms of employment open through
the channels of the u. S. Employment
Service, are to begin an active cam
paign among enlisted men through
the post commanders, looking to tne
enlistment of released soldiers in oc-
cupations where labor is needed
most.
This announcement has been made
by the War Department and through
Colonel ]. L. Hughes, commandant at
Fort Barrancas, men are to be sought
to take up work in occupations where
there is a dearth Of employees. No re-
cruiting may be done by officials
themselves among the men, but the
various departments needing labor are
to make their wants known to the
post commanders Of army camps.
The commanders will in turn issue the
information for the benefit of the
men.
A conference was held here yester-
day between railroad. postal authori-
ties and an official Of the U. S. EN-
ployment office, in which definite
plans for taking advantage Of the new
ruling We're discussed.
Col Hughes VIII use his every ef-
fort to aid the authorities in re-
cruiting labor for every line of work
from among the men at the local
army posts.
While comparatively few men have
left the army as yet, tentative plans
by the War Department would seem
to indicate that many men will be
released in the near future It is exS
pected that Ft. Barrancas will lose
some men in this way within the
next few weeks. While many OF
these soldiers came into the army
from regular occupations, many 9TH
ers did not, and an effort will be
made to place" every man, who does
not leave the command Of Col.
Hughes with something definite in
view.

INCIPIENT RIOT
NIPPED IN BUD
BY LOCAL POLICE

An incipient riot on Palafox street
last night was the only bit of disorder
experienced in the city during the
entire day, yesterday. The commotior
started in an argument between one
Jim Cope and sailor on the sidewalk
of Palafox between Garden and Ro-
mana streets. AS the argument be-
tween the two men became hotter
several of the sailors friends attempt
ed to help their mate carry his poin,
when, it is stated that Cope pulled a
gun and backing into the doorway Of a
nearbby store held rapidly growing
crowd of service men at bay.
A call for the police was sent in and
the patrol wagon arrived on the scene
just as one soldier took the gun away
from Cope, it is said. Cope was taken
to the police station amid shouts and
Kisses of the crowd which by this time
is said to have grown to large pro-
portions. After Cope was taken away
the service men separated and no more
disturbances were reported.

WHAT CITY IS
TO Do WITH
BONDS, QUERY
MANY BELIEVE THAT NEW ISSUE
SHOLD BE DEVOTED TO HARBOR
DEVELOPMENT.

What is the city to do with the half
million of dollars in bonds, voted by
the people of Pensacola for the con-
struction of docks and a belt line rail-
road, to further port facilities here
This question has been pressed on the
city commissioners since the inspec-
ton trip of Secretary w. G. McAdoo
was announced.
City officials say that the sale OF
the bonds and the consequent con-
struction of the intended property was
held I'D by the war, and the inability
of the city to obtain permission from
the Capital Issues Committee to sell
the paper. Now that the war is over,
and a release has been granted for
practically every sort Of construction
work. the commissioners have received
many queries concerning the work.
Mayor Sanders says.
With the expressions Of apprecia-
ton by Secretary McAdoo as to the
harbor. and his announced belief that
the harbor will boom in the after-war
trade, many citizens, among them City
Attorney j. B. Jones, believe improve
ments such as dock facilities should be
rushed to completion.
4 Visitors point to the fact that, while
Pensacola has a harbor unequa1Ied on
the gulf and in few parts Of the
neighboring ports on the gulf
