Pensacola's special train load of
Centennial Boosters left for Tallahas-
see at $3.50 o'clock last night. Before
leaving a concert was held and hun
dreds of people, friends of the dele
gates and centennial boosters, saw the
special on it's way. The train left
from the L. & N. station on time
midst the cheering Of the happy and
hopeful throng.
John Frenkel spent a half hour be-
fore the train started, teaching all
hands to sing Pensacola Town" The
Fort Barrancas band made the trip
with the delegates and gave a concert
before the train pulled out.

night gave the impression that if Pen
sacola does not get the big centennial
today 1t will be because there is some
thing wrong in Denmark
