Among the many prominent features
heralded for the Armistice Day cele-
bration at Palmetto Beach Friday,
there looms up a novelty In the form
of an all-colored attraction, very kind
ly donated by Mr.. E. L. CummingH
of the Belmont theatre. Mr.
Cummings desired to contribute his
mite toward the success of the cele-
bration, and has allowed his all-colored
to appear at Palmetto
Beach between the hours of and
D. M Friday. Though called the Ala
bama Ministries, it would be more
proper to call the attraction the Ala
bama Harmony Girls. which is headed
by the colored comedian John Mason,
who formerly appeared in Pensacola
a few years ago as leading comedian
with The Smart Set" The favorable
criticism this organization has re-
ceived this week at the Belmont thea
tire, should make it prove entertaining
Mr.. Cummings has donated his or
ehestra as we'll which will be in the
form of a donation of everything pos
sible to be given by his theatre.

GRAND JURY MAKES
SEVEN INDICTMENTS
Two White Slavery Cases and Inves-
LEGATIONS Made in Sterling and
Chinese Smuggling.

The federal grand jury was busy all
day yesterday making investigations
of several important cases, and there
We're seven indictments returned dur
ing the day. i. Brown, who was in
dicted Tuesday for extracting money
from the mails, pleaded guilty to the
charge and was fined $50 and SEN
fenced to serve one day as prisoner
under the custody of the United States
marshal. The grand jury probed the
case of Fazenda, who had been bound
over from a preliminary hearing be-
fore the commissioner, charged with
violating the Mann act
This was technical charge, but the
grand jury failed to find evidence suf-
ffcient to warrant the Indictment of the
accused. Fazenda's wife, who admitted
that she of her own free will accord
frequented house of ill-fame, know
ing it to be such. appeared in the court
room and appeared to feel no remorse
for her acts. This stand which she
took is probably the only thing that
kept her husband from being indicted.
In another white slave case that fea-
tured the activities of the day. a man
by the name Of Parker was indicted
for the alleged violation Of the Mann
act, Some very interesting testimony
is looked for when this case comes to
trial. An investigation of the Stirling
case was made by the. grand jury yes
terday afternoon. and it is supposed
that the probe had been finished as
the witnesses were discharged from
further consideration of the case, at
this time at least. The result of the
investigation had not been turned in
at o'clock yesterday afternoon when
the grand jury adjourned for the day.

book called ION the Des Moines" has
come to hand The title apparently re
ters to the river by that name aud has
nothing to do with the city without street
car service.
At first glance the book looks al if II
might contain verse of the free variety,
for each line of the reading matter be
gins with a capital letter and the lines
are of indiscriminate length. On read
ing some Of It, however. it appears that
the author has taken very few liberties
with the language and that the text is
rather ordinary prose, broken jerkilly up
like that of X. c. B., only not so clever.
For instance, would any one ever sus-
pect that the following was written with
poetic intent:
How is business this season :"
l lure him from his fishing.
SLOW; the trusts and the unions make
the contractors Job impossible: one can't
do a thing Building materials are cor
nered by the trusts. The war has given
them the chance to rob with greater ease ::
labor is controlled by the unions; one
might Just as well give the men what
they ask; to fume and sweat about it
only gets one in bad, gets one boycotted
The thing to do is to charge it up To
the landlord
Doesn't that sound like the very prosaic
wall Of a disguised building contractor?
Vet here is the way 1t appears in the
book:
How is business this season."
I lure him away from his 9shlng.

"One might just as well give the men

one in bad:
Gets one boycotted.

landlord"
If that stuff is poetry, Shakespeare was
a plumber. But then, the thing ism t
labeled poetry and maybe we're so dense
we don't appreciate what it's supposed
to be. James Cloyd Bowman claims the
responsibility and the book Is published

the opinion of Robert CoUtes Holiday
who has just published another volume
of his delightful essays about everything

Queer thing. that, about undertakers'
shops, I don't remember to have been

at least, enable the rest of the country
to understand why the West has been so
persistent In its outcries. There have
been other books on the subject, just as
there had been other novels centered
al out the French Revolution before
Charles Dickens wrote A Tale Of Two
Cities But for multitudes it REM aimed
for that epic of an earlier genueratiOn to
interpret the gigantic problem with which
it dealt. 1t Is, no doubt, largely because
the author of this new novel has be-
come such a master story teller that The
Pride of Palomar' succeeds splendidly in
interpreting what must be conceded as
one of Americas greatest problems Of
today. If 1t were not towering story

less of the things with which 1t deals
1t would not have the power to hold Its
audience as it does The same must
have been said of the great stories of
other generations, for it is true of all Of
them, and one reads this new book with
the feeling that il, too will go down on
through the years as one of the really
important Interpretations of today
