In these same wilds the last of the snowy herons are struggling against extinction at the hands of the plume hunters. They are gradually disappearing. Often they are shot from nests that frequently contain four or five young who die a lingering. death by starvation.
 The National Association of Audubon Societies has accomplished wonders in protecting the snowy heron and other birds. The setting aside of reservations on government land by executive order, where the feathered inhabitants can find sanctuary, has saved more than one spe- cics from annihilation. ,s

Washington, June 6.-Congressman H. NJ. Jacoway today forwarded to the Arkansas Historical Commission the records of the court martial, sen- tence and execution ci David o. Dodd, the young ArkanSan Wl;G vas hanged as a spy by the Federal forces in Lit tie Rock in 1864, after he had refused to diyulge the name of the person that had asked him to obtain information in connection with the Federal posi- ton, foftis cations and other data, which he secured upon visit to Lit tie Rock. sAr Jacoway, a few days ago took up tho matter with the War Department to see if he could not ob- tain a transcript of the records in the case. The records sent to Arkansas today contain the statement made by David o. Dodd during his trial, which is really a classic.
 An effort is now being made in Little Rock to erect statue to the memory of young Dodd, who laid down his life for the Confederate cause.

JUDGE GRACE IS TRYING TO LO- CATE ADDRESS OF SOME ONE WHO KNEW JOHN X.

Judge A. 5. Grace has received a letter from F.. A. Upton, of Washing ton, D. C., ill which he asks for in formation relative to the whereabouts or addresses of some of the members of Company c. Ninth Regiment of Arkansas lnfantly, C. s A, his pur- pose being to perfect an application for a pension for deserving widow, wife of John A. Rankin, who has ap- piled for pension from Louisiana. Judge Grace is of the opinion how the letter was organized at Camden, Ark, but that the matter might be given publicity he has turned it over to the Graphic. The letter follows
 Washington, D. C., May 9, 1913. Hon. A. B. Grace,
 Pine Bluff. Ark.
 Dear Sir
 On behalf of Mrs. Rankin, of Haynesville. La, il is desired to learn the names and addresses of some oi the members of Company C, 9th Reg iment of Arkansas Infantry, c. S. A.
 Her late husband, John A. Rankin was member of the above mentioned organization, which was organized and mustered into state service July 9, 1861. Colonel John NJ. Brady was the first commander of the regiment About January, 1862, one Isaac l.. Dunlop was elected colonel and sub- sequently the regiment was cam manded by Colonel Jefferson w Rogers. Company c of this regiment was commanded, first by Capt. Philip G. Henry. and was known as Henry Hornets" Later it was commanded by Captain Jackson M. White, and still later. by Captain Flavius ]. Randolph. It is believed that most Of the men were from Jefferson coun- ty and were enlisted at Pine Bluff in July and August, 1861.
 Mrs. Rankin has applied to the State of Louisiana for widows pen sion, but on account of the incom- pleteness of the c. s. A. records on file, bot hat Baton Rouge and Wash ington, she will be required to fur nish ''affidavits of comrades before her claim will be allowed. She is a most estimable and deserving old lady, wholly dependent upon friends and relatives for support, and if you can aid me in getting in oommunica- tion with some of the members of the aforesaid company and regiment, l will greatly appreciate the favor.
 Yours Truly.

[ N former years a journey to
 Florida meant, among other

Florida meant, among other
 things, a sight of thousands of snowy herons. A trip down any of the rivers on one of the little stern -wheelers was sure to reveal hundreds; but he is fortu- nate indeed who sees half a dozen of these immaculate birds in a whole season there now. Along the upper reaches of the St. John and it's tributaries they nestled in thousands, filling the air when distributed, like some enormous white cloud. In those days they did not confne themselves to tropical regions, but wandered as far north as Maine. On Long Island the gunners were well acquainted with them, and as late as 1910 a few were noted in South Carolina.
 These dainty birds of the South fall without the pale of protective cobra ton. Against the dark green of man.

Some of the Climbers are due to 'be

the annual drafting opens at Cincinnati,
and, in order to place some names in
the hat, Manager Griffith is forced to

the payroll. Just which of the players
to be let go is not known today.

full strength. it cannot draft any minor
Lacquer If it has thirty, it is allowed
to draft five. If it has twenty-five
under contract, it may draft ten, etc.
Manager Griffith has close to the legal
limit, and, in order to put in any drafts,
he must release enough players to ac-
count for the number of drafts he
puts In.
The Old Fox had a conference today
with President Minor. A check for the
amount of the drafts was made out and
forwarded to Cincinnati, where the
drawings will be held on Monday Man.

minors are already the property OF

bring to light the players upon whom

Mackmen, was obtained in the 1912
draft. after Buffalo had refused sew
eral fancy offers for him. 1t may be
| the same story this year, several good
players being picked up by the lucky
| clubs.
Manager Griffith has heard nothing

/ trip to the island. He is looking for

| has asked for a sum larger than that
| offered by the promoter, and this may
have caused a hitch in the arrange

to make the trip to Havana, all having
heard of the good time to be given
them by the baseball-loving Cubans.
There is little Likelihood of the Mack
mems losing the pennant this year. The
Griffmen have won 1t for them. Connie
Mack's team now leads by seven and
half games. The Giants are leading
by eight and a half. There seems littli
chance for other teams to horn into the
championships in either league.
The Mackmen have bumped into a
snag in the White Sox this year. The
Windy City contingent has won eleven
out of twenty-one games with the White
Elephants. Today they have a chance
of winning the seasons games by dis
posing of the foe. The best the Mack
men can do is tie the count.
