REED MAY RUN

Movement Launched To Induce Sena-

Jackson, Miss, Aphil 1.-The most
interesting event in Congressional
politics in Mississippi during the past
week was the launching of movement

There are now three aspirants in

term, Hon Percy E. Quin, of Pike,
who made an unsuccessful race two
ycars ago, and State Senator r.. E.

having made his formal announcement
during the past few days.
A report has been current for the

MEXICAN CONGRESS MEETS.

City of Mexico, April MANY re-
forms are proposed by President Ma
dero in his message to Congress,
which convened in semi-annual SEES
sion today, The more stringent regu-
lation and eventual abolition of the
gambling houses and drinking estab-
hshments is favored by the President
who also will seek permission from
Congress to prohibit bull fighting
President Madero recently attended a
bull fight given for charity, and this
has led the opponents of his reform
measure to impugn his sincerity, bu5
it is probable that if Madero has his
way the national sport" of Mexico
Will have to go. A bill has been pre-
pared and will be introduced early in
the session opened today having this
end in view Whether sentiment in
Congress against bull fighting is
strong enough to bring about the en-
actment of the law is very doubtful
Mexico has been haven for profess
sioDal gamblers ever since they were
driven from Texas, Arizona and New
Mexico, and already the state legisla-
ture of Sonora has passed an act pro-
hibiting gambling. President Madero
will also use his influence to have all
the states enact similar legislation.
President Madero does not favor
the absolute prohibition of the liquor
traffic, but asks for laws to put the
ban on the distillation of moscal and
other cheap liquors to which the
poems are much addicted, and which
are in reality slow poisons when used
moderately, and rapid poisons when
consumed in large quantities. The
President thinks the levying of a pro-
hibitive tax on the growth of maguey
plants, from which moscal and tequila
are made, would accomplish the de-
sired end. The restriction of the
liquor trade and placing it on a high
er scale, putting all the low dens of
vice out of business, is what Presi-
dent Madero favors, although there
are many reformers in Mexico who
have come to favor absolute prohibi-
ton of the manufacture or sale or
liquor

conduct to the prejudice of good or
der and discipline.
A dictionary he bought on the in
stallment plan, and on which he is
alleged to owe balance of $12, is the
largest item in the list of unpaid
debts charged to Capt. Kilbreth. An
other item is s. said to be due the
army post exchange at Fort Leaven-
worth, Kan, and the third is debt
due to a merchant in Junction City,
Kan, which is near Fort Riley, and
which totals $7.65.
These three debts were all brought
to the attention of the secretary of
war at Washington. 1t is alleged that
the adjutant general wrote to Capt
kilbreth in regard to the matter, and
that he permitted the communications
to remain in the letter box at the Uni
versity Club, which is his New York
home, without opening them. This
constitutes one OF the charges of dis
obedience now laid against him. He
is also charged with having uttered a
worthless check for $12 in payment
for the balance due on his dictionary
AS to the Junction City bill, Capt. Kill
breth alleges that it was paid and the
specifications in the call for the court
m IF ial OF
in fact false"
The charge of neglect or duty is
based on the allegation that various
official communications and orders
We're sent to Capt. Kilbreth at the
University Club, and that he did will
fully and deliberately fail and neglect
to call for his mail at the said Uni
versity Club"
Other specifications have to do with
Capt Kilbreth's official duties in con
nection with his appointment by the
War department as inspector-instruc
tor OF field artillery in New York and
New Jersey. 1t is said that he per-
formed his duties properly in New
York City, but neglected the smaller
cities of New York and New Jersey.
The court martial tomorrow will be
under the direction of Col. John V.
White of the Coast Artillery Corps
with Capt. John F. Madden of the
Twenty-ninth infantry as the Judge
advocate in charge of the prosecu-
ton. The court will convene at 10
o'clock tomorrow morning.
Capt. Kilbreth is a native of this
city and thirty-six years old. He is
graduate of the artillery school of
the class of 1902.

Recommend.

We are so positive that our remedy
( will permanently relieve constipation,
no matter how chronic 1t may be, that
We offer to furnish the medicine at
our expense should it fail to produce
satisfactory results.
1t is worse than useless to attempt
to cure constipation with cathartic
drugs. Laxatives or cathartics do
much harm. They cause a reaction,
irritate and weaken the bowels and
tend to make constipation more chron-
ic. Besides, their use becomes a
habit that is dangerous.
Constipation is caused by weak
ness of the nerves and muscles of the
large intestine or descending colon
To expect permanent relief You must
therefore tone up and strengthen these
organs and restore them to healthier
activity.
We want you to try Rexall Order
lies on our recommendation. They are
Exceedingly pleasant to take, being
eaten like candy, and are ideal for
children, delicate persons, and old
folks, as well as for the robust. They
act directly on the nerves and muscles
CT the bowels. They apparently have
2 neutral action on other associate
organs or glands. They do not purge,
cause excessive looseness, nor create
any Inconvenience whatever. They
may be taken at any time, day or

chronic or habitual constipation, if
not of surgical variety, and the
myriads of associate or dependent

iafity for a reasonable length of time.

For generations Sage and Sulphur
have been used for hair and scalp
troubles. Almost everyone knows the
value of such a combination for keep
ing the hair a good even color, for
curing dandruff, itching scalp and fall
ing hair, and for promoting the growth
of the hair. Years ago the only way
to get Hair Tonic of this kind was to
make it in the home, which was trou-
blesome and not always satisfactory.
Nowadays, almost any up-to-daUe drug
gist can supply his patrons with a
ready-to-use product, skillfully pre-
pared in perfectly equipped labora-
tories.
An ideal preparation of this sort
is Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy, in which Sage and Sulphur
are combined with other valuable
remedies for scalp troubles and thin,
weak hair that is losing it's color or
coming out. After using this remedy
for a few days, you will notice the

scalp will feel better, the dandruff
will soon be gone, and in less than a
months time there will be a wonder.
