ROOF OF SMALL STORE
BADLY DAMAGED BY FIRE

The small store operated by l..
Scotto, Reus and Garden streets, was
badly damaged by fire at an early
hour Sunday morning A call was first
sent in at 1853 and the department
made quick response and put out a
small interior blaze. At 1858 another
call was sent in from the same place.
and this time the fire had gained more
Roadway with the result that practi-
cally the entire roof was destroyed,
and greater portion of the contents
ruined by the smoke, fire and water.
The building is owned by n. Weiland
and was being operated as a grocery

DELEGATE TO CONVENTION TELLS
ABOUT THE SEMINOLE SUN DANCE

that the anger of the fre-god has been
appeased and that he will bless them
when they burn ciearings and cook the
fruits of their toll in the woods, fields,
and streams.
The dances at West Palm Beach are
not theatrical representations of the
ceremonials, but actual rites performed
by the Seninoles from the Everglades
who make the pilgrimage annually to
this spot where their forefathers invoked
this powerful god who ruled so harshly
sometimes in the early days that famine
was abroad in the land.
Child Born to Dancer
One old squaw who is said to be the
oldest person in Florida never misses a
dance and is as active and spry the
Youngest brave. This year throughout
the entire ritual she carried in her arms
a baby which was apparently two or
three months of age. and in some of
the more violent parts of the exercise
the little fellow was pretty roughly
handled A child born in the Indian
camp this year, is considered to be
especially blessed by both the Sun and
Fire gods, as he was born on the second
day of the dance and his mother had
taken part in both the day before.
1t is difficult to estimate the number
of persons who witnessed the affair this
year, but it is safe to say that during
the three days and nights more than
fifty thousand viewed the spectacle which
in earlier times was often accompanied
by the sacrifice of some prisoner of war.

Famous Old Southern Tribe Custom Long
Established in Song and
Story.

A feature of the Fourth Annual Con-
vention Of the American Legion at West
Palm Beach was the spectacular Sun
Dance of the Seminoles which is held in
March each year at the Sun Dance plat
form in that city. This weird dance is
held in homer of the sun-god so that he
will smile on their crops and cause them
to produce a bountiful harvest. It is one
of the Oldest traditions of the famous
old southern tribe. At four O'Clock in
the afternoon, led by their chief they
begin slowly circling with bowed heads.
AS the dance progresses, the speed as
we'll as the noise increases, the women
chant, the chiefs leap and yell, and they
change from the circle to snake dance.
For a half hour or more this is continued
until all the participants are apparently
exhausted, then with blood -curdling yells
the chiefs leap high into the air and the
dance is over.
Fire Dance at Night
The Fire Dance at night following this
is similar, and even more wild and weird
than the sun-god ceremonial A recep-
tacle filed with pine knots or some other
fuel is placed in the center of an open
space ana the dancers take their places
around it much as they did previously in
the Sun Dance. The fire is lighted, and
the circling and winding is continued
until the fire begins to die which shows

those prsevailing before the recent ad-
vance in hogs followed by a CORE
spending advance in all vegetable oils.
However, as these lower grades have
been advanced in price, the higher
grades OF the Virginia peanuts, con-
trary to all presidents, have not only
advanced but have actually declined
to where variety and size differentia-
tions have been wholly obliterated. AS
the result of this most singular de-
velopment, 5umbos the largest size Of
the unshelled peanuts, and which for
several years past have sold at from
so to 100 per cent higher than the
fancys, which are the second size of
the unshelied cleaned peanuts, are now
being offered to the trade at the same
price in the dumfounding quotation:
"Jumbos or fancys, 1-2 cents a pound,
take your choice" The conditions
which have brough about this break
ing down of all accepted standards for
grade and variety which have pre-
vailed since the beginning of the pea
nut industry in America, have played
a big part in prompting the peanut
growers through their organization to
take definite steps at this time TO have
the peanuts of its members cleaned
and sold under it's own trademark and
brands. Plans are already on foot for
the sale OF s250o00 of preferred stock
in order to give the exchange the
necessary additional working capital
to enable it to carry on these larger
operations. In meeting the big issues
of. the present emergency these peanut
growers are planning a. national ad-
vertising campaign for the peanut,
which they propose to have sold in
the grocery stores OF America in con-
venient packages and at popular prices
right along beside other nuts, the raj
sin and the prune.
Now that the Peanut Growers ex-
change has entered the cleaning field,
it is confidently expected that il viii
greatly increase its membership. as
hundreds of growers have expressed
their determination to sign the grow
ers contract as soon as arrangements
to clean peanuts are perfected. More
members will not only mean control of
more peanuts by the exchange, but
a considerable reduction in
the number of cleaning plants. as con-
sentative figures show that there are
three to four times as many cleaning
plants at the present time as are need |

FLORIDA GIRL WITH
MISS ANNA FITZIU.
Miss Carol Perrenot, Accompanies, Is
Native of Santa Rosa County,
Having Been Born in Milton.

In an exclusive" love story, which
somehow or other leaked out afore
time" an interesting affair is brought
to light, which at the present moment
should interest and captivate Pensa-
colIans.
Miss Carol Perrenot, who is to ap-
pear. as accompanist with Miss Anna.

Pensacola Wednesday night for a con-
cert), and who is native Floridian,
having been born and reared in Milton
and Santa Rosa county prior to her
going east to take up her musical
career, is to become a follower of
Hymen. The facts of the case follow
the usual two hearts that beat as
one only that Miss Perrenot's affi-
anced is none other than Mr.. Paul
Longone, associate of Titta Ruffo, the
celebrated tenor. Mr.. Longone is an
Italian subject, of Naples, and speaks
English we'll One paper has de-
scribed Mr.. Longone as one OF the
handsomest of musical artists. which
does not reflect upon Miss Perrenot,
as this artistic is a very beautiful wo-
man. Just when the happy event will
take place is not known, save that the
many friends OF Miss Perrenot, both in
Pensacola and the many out of town
who will come to hear her play We'd

tons. Miss Perrenot's father was a
well known Florida statesman, having

ATTEND CONVENTION
On Account Of the Bad Condition of
the Roads the Trip Is Made
by Train.

Pensacola's delegates to the Four
States Highway convention. which
opens in Mobile today, left on the early
train this morning for the Alabama
city. 1t was planned to make the trip
through the country in automobiles
but word was received yesterday that
the roads over in Baldwin county in
certain places were in bad-eondition,
so it was decided that it would be a
safer plan to make the trip over the
railroad.

the county commissioners, and q num-
Der of outside parties who are making
the trip of their own accord in order
to help in whatever way they can to-
ward the success OF the convention

and the various commercial and civic
bodies of Mobile for the purpose OF
ascertaining the sentiment regarding
the construction of bridge across
Mobile bay and to speed up the actual
work as much as possible.
Invitations were sent out to all the
surrounding country urging those in
terested in the project to attend the
convention. The meeting has also
been extensively advertised and it will
in all probability be we'll attended.
The Alabama Highway Commission
holds meeting in Mobile on the same
date, and this is the reason that the
four-states convention is being held
at the same time. Tonight at 6 O'Clock

dinner will be given, after which dele
gates from the four states will address
the meeting.

Bernhardt declared that theodore" was
one of the favorite roles or her long ca

Nietorien Sardou wrote especially for her
as one of the most powerful productions
that she ever had. Yet with the limits

played it, the cast. extras and all
numbered about hundred and the cost
was about $50. coo. The screen spectacle
