'RED" WEIGH IS
 COMING HERE Will Make Effort to Have Pine Bluff Represented at Meeting at Capital
WANTS THIS CITY IN IT
Meeting to he Held b, Local Fans at The Arlington Hotel Saturdas
 Afternoon at 2 O'Clock.

Red Welsh, who is making a de termined effort to organize a state baseball league to include Pine Bluff. Little Rock, Ionesboro, Hot Springs, Fort Smith, TeXarkana Newport and rrobalv South Memphis, Tennessee. or Poplar Bluff, Mo. will arrive in Pine Bluff Saturday to meet with the local fans and enlist their support in tue project. \ meeting will be held at the parIors of the Arlington Ho- tel at 2 o'clock, at which hour Welch desires all interested fans to be pre- sent
 Weleh's visit to Pine Bluff is with view 10 having this city represent cd at the state meeting, which will be held at the Hotel Marion on the Sunday following. The meeting here will doubtless be attended by large number of local fans, but not by the representative business men of this city. men who would be apt to put lnelr money into a baseball enter prise. While hundreds of fans here are anxious to have the national game here during the summer months, 1t is not generally believed that sufficient funds could be raised here to insure a league team for Pine Bluff.
 Past experiences with baseball teams, both in the> Arkansas State League and the Cotton States League prompt men of means to flight shy" of minor class team. 1t has been a losing proposition every time 1t was financed here and those who invest ed their money in the past have had sad tales of woe to tell of their loss es. There are number of young ball players here, some of them being of exceptional ability, and naturally thore is always considerable interest manifested in any proposition that al game in this city. But lack of funds and their inability to interest men with money has prevented this city from shining in tho baseball world of late
 If Little Rock puts q team in the State circuit, Pine Bluff may do like wise, because without the capital city many fans do not believe that state league would make it through the season. The general impression ex- ists here that the Little Rock fans will not enter the state league, espe- cially after so many seasons of high CT class ball in the Southern It may be possible, however. that Red" l Welch can accomplish something in the way of organization here, but 1t l is doubtful

 The ashes used in today's ceremon- ies by the Catholics are obtained by burning the remains of palms blessed

San Antonio, Texas, Feb. 9.-The ratio of successful applicants for cen sus enumerators in San Antonio and Bexar county is three women to two men, according to the first rough calculations of the local census of- ficials who have just begun to ex- anime the "test" papers that were handed in last Saturday. This means that the hundred and one questions which will be asked every citizen in the city and county will come from the lips of perhaps 90 women and but 90 men.

which Hollis. Goss, a delivery boy for
the Independent light company, was

FOR YOUR HAIR
Here Are Facts We Want
You to Prove at Our Risk

Marvellous as it may seem, Rexall
"93" Hair Tonic has grown hair on
heads that were once bald. OF course
it is understood that in none of these
cases were the hair roots dead nor had
the scalp taken on a glazed, shiny ap-
pearance.
When the roots of the hair are en-
tirely dead and the pores of the scalp
are glazed over, we do not believe that
anything can restore hair growth.
When Rexall '93" Hair Tonic will
do as above stated, 1t is not strange
that we have such great faith in 1t
and that we claim it will prevent bald
ness when used in time. 1t acts scien-
tificalIy, destroying the germs which
are usually responsible for badness.
It penetrates to the roots of the hair,
stimulating and nourishing them. 1t
is a most pleasant toilet necessity, is
delicately perfumed and will not gum
nor permanently stain the hair.
We want you to get bottle of Rex
all "93" Hair Tonic and use it as di-
rected If it does not relieve scalp
irritation, remove dandruff. prevent
the hair from falling out and pro-
mote an increased growth of hair and
in every way give entire satisfaction,
simply come back and tell us, and
without question or formality we will
hand back to you every penny you paid
us for it.
we lend our endorsement to Rexall
"93" Hair Tonic and sell it on this
guarantee, because we believe 1t is the
best hafr tonic ever discovered. 1t
comes in two sizes, prices so cents and
S100. Remember you can obtain it
only at The Owl Drug Co. Inc, 710
Market street, IT'S Market street, Post
street and Grant avenue, Fillmore and
Geary streets and 18th and Mission
streets.

CAMPAIGN ENDS
WITHOUT NOISE
Few Contests Against Repub-
Iican Nominees for Local
and County Offices

OAKLAND. Nov. THE political
campaign closed in Alameda county
tonight with Iittle noise. interest being
lacking in nearly all local offices. as
there were few II any contests. Par
tisans Of Johnson and Bell were active.
but local politicians have lacked the
stimulus needed for great activity.
That the county viii go republican
by the usual overwhelming majority
is confidently asserted by republican
leaders, who point to Johnson's show
ing at the primary election and to the
great enthusiasm he aroused when he
spoke in the county TO support their
beliefs. The democrats hope to cut
down the lead.
The only local fight that has devel-
oped activity has been between Super
lntendent of Schools Q. ". Frick and
his predecessor. T o Crawford. Frick
mas the republican nomination, and
Crawford the democratic. The latter
has made q strenuous campaign, and
Frick. seeing his activity. has met it
with similar measures.
For the other county Offices the re-
publican nominees are virtually con-
ceded their elections The democrats
made nominations. but many of the
nominees have not even gone to the
trouble OF circulating cards. Warren
English. former congressman. has done
ca campaigning to beat County Assessor
Henry P Dalton: Robert McKiuican, a
former sheriff. has electioneered to beat
Sheriff Barnet. and Alexander Hirsch-
berg has made an effort TO get votes
with which 20 defeat Public Admins
traitor H 3. Mehrmann. But all of
them had very long leads to overcome.
All seven members Of the assembly
from Alameda county viii be repub-
70 lcan. as opposition 10 the republican
nominees is nowhere serious. The same
may be said of the state senators who
are to be elected from the county.
George J. Hans in the fourteenth and
Edward J. Tyrreu in the sixteenth are
sure of election. Both had hard
fights al the primaries. TyrreIl beating
Senator Frank Leavitt. and Hans de-
festing Assemblyman Frank Otis. one
of the authors Of the anti-rac cetrack
