YACHT CLUB HOLDS
DELIGHTFUL CRUISE
Appetizing Feast, Quot Throwing and
Inspection Tour Are Thoroughly
Enjoyed by Members.

The cruise of the Pensacola Yacht
club held yesterday at Town Point
wess one of the most deligh tful ever
held by the club, Ex-Commodore
Peter Lindenstruth spent Saturday
night at Ed Peake's place over on the
point and when the boats arrived he
had prepared a very appetizing meal
to satisfy the appetites of the party.
The meal of several courses consisted
of such delicacies as oyster cocktail,
chicken and oyster gumbo, fried oys-
tiers, fish, potato salad, boiled ham, ice
cream, cake and coffee. This was
thoroughly enjoyed.
During the day all hands joined in
and played various games, but the
throwing of quoits, or "banyard golf"
as the game is better known, was
about the most popular. After dinner
the party took to the boats again and
cruised over to old Camp Saufley and
gave it tour of inspection.
On the return trip the boats were
handicapped so that they would reach
the city at the same time. The race
was won by Capt Dan Shepard's
launch Martha over the six-mile
course.
About 75 members of the club and
a number of guests enjoyed the cruise
and Ex-Commodore Lindenstruth
proved to be a wonderful host on theI
occasion. The feet that made the trip
was composed of eight boats.
The members of the club contem-
plate making one of these cruises ev-
cry month, and it was announced yes
terday that the sailing season would
be on at the time of the next, and that
the fish class sloops would be carried
along. Sailing will then be the order
of the day, and the members are an !
ticipating an enjoyable time.
The regular meeting of the Yacht /!
club will be held on Wednesday night, |
at which time a spaghetti supper will
be served, followed by the business
session.

Several Thousand People Enjoy "Eats"
rendered by Broekman Company
Yesterday.

! Several thousand people enjoyed the
splendid barbecue rendered the public
free OF charge by the Brockman Pack
ing company of Myrtle Grove, six
miles west of Pensacola, yesterday,
celebrating the opening Of their newly
erected packing house and cold storage
plant. The "eats" were served at /
| o'clock and consisted of liberal por-
tions of barbecued meats, bread, pick
les and a specially prepared gravy
that was pleasing indeed to the palates
of those who partook of the meal
Hundreds of people visited the plant
in the morning, and many Were the
favorable comments on the newest in
dustry of Escambia county.
Hundreds of the visitors gave the
Brockman plant a thorough inspec-
ton. Although all the parts have not
yet been installed the casual onlooker
was impressed with the arrangement
of the machinery, and the space for
increasing the facilities as the growth
of the business demands.
The plant consists of complete re-
ment, running water electric lights,
facilities for slaughtering both hogs
and cattle, q curing plant where hams
and breakfast bacon are given the fin
ishing touches, and numerous smaller
pieces of machinery needed in the
successful operation of such factory
Both Mr.. Brockman and Judge A. c.
Binlxley of Pensacola addressed the
gathering and told of what the pack
ing plant would mean to the farmers,
cattle growers and consumers of the
county. Both asked for the coopera-
ton of the people in making this new
venture a success.
Mr.. Brockman said that he started
out in Foley, Ala, six years ago with
a small meat market and cold storage
plant. The people there told him that
his venture would be a failure, but he
held on. When / first started the
business" said Mr.. Brockman, 'my
gross daily receipts ran around 81 and
IS a day. so you can imagine the size
of the business. However, the receipts
gradually increased. I enlarged the
capacity Of my plant accordingly, and
at the end of the first year we took
in around $500 per day, and on Satur-
days sometimes more.
I'm looking for a field to increase
the business / came over into Escam-
bia county, and here / have found
what in nay estimation is the best field
in the south. Every natural condi
ton is pointing toward packing plant
here and that will be of real value toi
this section. We are in the market
for hogs and cattle at prevailing prices. |
All the company asks is the support |
and cooperation OF the .,eople which |
we hope TO serve
In his talk Mr.. BroclSnan announced
that the company was not knocking |
the businesses already established
here, but he was sure that it would be |
possible for them to sell meats at a |
much lower price than those shipped /
from foreign points.
The company has already opened |
one store in the city. and Mr.. Brock
man SAYS that others will be opened
as the volume OF business increases.

new DISTILLERY IS
FOUND BY OFFICERS
Stearns and Deputy Raines Capture
Outfit Before It Was Ever Used.

Evidently Dick" Stearns and Dep
uty Raines are trying to emulate Izzy
Efnstein of New York fame, who has
gained national prominence as chas-
er of Volstead violators de luxe.
To capture a would-be moonshiner's
distillery before he had the opportini-
ty of giving it a. test run" in the YER
nacular of the bootIegger would be a
dirty shame" but this is what the
local officers did yesterday morning.
In small swamp about half mile
from the depot at Olive they found a
new 100-gallon capacity still, not yet
set up. and two barrels of mash, which
they asserted was about FIVE days old.
OF course the usual procedure followed
and the whole outfit was piled in
heap and burned.
