PETITION FOR PARDON.

To his exsellency, Earl Brewer Gov
ernor of Mississippi:
The undersigned petitioners, citizens
of Forrest county, Mississippi, respect
fully show unto your Excellency that
Harris Presley was sentenced Dec.
8, 1918. to a three-year term in the
State Penitentiary on a charge OF
burglary to which he had plead guilty
during the November term of the Cir
cult Court of said County.
We are moved to pray for executive
clemency by the following facts: This
boy was only three months past the
age OF sixteen when the offence was
committed, having arrived at that age
July 25th, 1918; was never suspected
or accused of any violation Of the law
whatever before; we know this boy
and his parents are firmly convinced
that this offence was not the result
of viciousness or a criminal DISPOSE
ton, but the thoughtless act of boy
led on by others older than himself;
he made no effort to deny the charge
but in a manly way plead guilty ant
has uncomplainingly served these sew
eral months of his sentence.
We believe his offence is ampl.

Which Foot Walks Faster?

If you will take pavement that Is
clear. so that there will be no inter-
ference. and walk briskly In the cen
ter. you will find that before you have
gone fifty yards you have veered very
much to one side. You must not make
any effort, of course. to keep in the
center, but If you will think Of some
thing and endeavor to walk naturally
you cannot keep a direct line. The ex-
PLANTATION OF this lies In the propensity
of one foot to walk faster than the
other. or one leg takes longer stride
than the other, causing one to walk
to one side. You can try an expert
ment In this way by placing two sticks
about eight feet apart, then stand of
about sixty feet. bllndfold yourself
and endeavor to walk between them.
You will find it almost impossible.

FLAGS FLOWN AT SEA.
Significance of Certain Colors In the
International Code.

Significance of Certain Coors In the
international Code.
From time immemorial flags have
been flown by ships at sea all over the
world. but it is only in more recent
years that an international code has
been adopted. All the countries of the
world now conform to fixed rules about
course. each navy has its own secret
code for use in war time.
The national flag of any ship when
hoisted upside down denotes that the
ship in question is in difficulties and
requires immediate assistance. which
possible.
The quarantine flag is plain yellow
square, hOisted on the foremost, which
indicates that the ship has got an in
fectious disease on board or that it has
come from an infected port. No per-
son is allowed either to go on board or
to leave such ship until permission is
granted by the sanitary authorities Of
the port.
In all parts Of the world white flag
is accepted as token of peace, a red
flag as that of defiance and black
flag as that of a pirate. A green flag
flying from the masthead Of ship or
barge at anchor indicates that there is
a wreck in the vicinity. The same is
denoted by a green buoy placed over
the spot.
When red flag Is flying on the fore
mast it is sign that the ship has pow
der, shell or ammunition on board and
serves as warning to other ships not
to come too near In case Of accidents.

The next standard will require
weights for Leghorns as follows:
Cocks, five and one-half pounds; hens.

discovered. The field of research has
been practically restricted to 725 de-

PEACOCK HYPOCRISY.

A peacock with wondrous tail
That shone like a rainbow
Was spreading himself in the sun
And strutting to and fro
And, proud of his magnificence.
He turned unto a hen
Whom he considered the best Judge
OF beauty In the pen
And said: "Now, Mrs Hen,
I'd like to ask of you
Your real opinion Of myself
And all my gorgeous hue.
do not rival yonder sun,
Excel the rainbow too?
Do not my lovely. graceful curves
Just fairly dazzle you"
WELL" said the hen. "you look real nice
But how about your skin?
You know, beneath your flnery
That you're as black as sin.
"And all your plumes and prancing
Cannot hide your ugly feet.
I'm sure for size and ugliness
Your black feet can't be beat"
The peacock folded his fine wings
And, silent. skunk away.
He knew the old hen told the truth.
Twas useless to gainsay.
Thus hypocrites are just the same.
With long face and long prayers
They strut about like peacocks
And put on angel airs.
But IL you strip their sheepskin Off
You'll find no Christian fair.
Beneath their Pharasaic robe
The cloven foot is there.

kURIos FROM CORRESPONDENTS

Q.-My pullets Of last season did not
lay until they We're more than nine
months old. Since they have laid, but
a poor average, and the eggs are small.
What Is wrong? Alt is difficult to
reply, because you give few particulars,
do not even tell the breed. You have
either kept your pullets fat as butter
or they are stunted by some fault in
your methods Perhaps you don't feed
enough or your ration lacks nutrition.
Q.-Should eggs be turned after they
are pipped? How can quickly mois-
ten the eggs when chicks stick I'm shell
without injuring hatch? A.-No. Many
quit turning the eighteenth day. Open
incubator door slightly and send
spray of warm water over eggs with
an atomizer. We use the plmple ato-
mizer that is used to spray varnish on
to pastel paintings.
Q.-How long may turkey eggs be
kept and yet give a good hatch? A.
Turkey eggs have been known to hatch
we'll when month old. 1t Is not wise
to keep them so long, however, and
Cuey Snoulu always pe kept III cooi
place and turned every day.
Q.-In what proportion are protein
and carbohydrates in fattening ra-
ton? A.-One Of protein to eight car
bohydrates.
Q.-How many kinds of Langshans
are there? Is the Rose Comb Lang
shan in the Standard? A.-Two,
White and Black. Standard disquali.
fies any but single comb.

TOWNS
TAKEN BY REBELS
City of Topic and Port of San
Bias Captured.
SHIP ROUTED BY AVIATOR
General Carranza's Aeroplanes Force
Federal Vessel to Put to Sea
When Flyer Fires Works
With Bombs.

Juarez, Mex, May 18.-General Car
rama telegraphed from Durango the
news that the constitutionalist gen
eral, Lucio Blanco, and Rafael Buelna
had taken the city of Topic, capital of
the state of that name, after a severe
engagement lasting more than twenty
four hours.
The number of killed and wounded
was not given in the first chiefs dis
patch. The message also stated that
the constitutionalists had taken the
town of Santiago Excuintlan and the
port of San Bias.
The capture of Topic and San Bias
is regarded as of extreme strategic i'm
portance, as it will allow the advance
of Gen. Aware Obregon into the state
of Jalisco. San Bias, which is about
midway between Manzanillo and Ma
zatlan, is in close touch with Guadala-
Jara, one of the most important cities
of Mexico, and with these two towns
in his possession General Obregon
will be able to close in on the city
from both the north and west.
Rebel Aviator Routs Ship.
Durango, Mex, May 18.-The vul-
nerability of war vessels to the attack
of aeroplanes was demonstrated by
General Carranza when the federal
gunboat Morelos, which has been one
of the effective defenses of Mazatlan
against constitutionalist attack, was
forced to put to sea with her upper
works on fire to escape the bombs of
the constitutionalist aeroplane fleet.
The message, which was sent by
General Obregon, stated that the
bombs from an aeroplane bursting on
the deck of the gunboat not only ST
fenced the federal guns, but also pre-
vented the rifemen on board from fir
ing effectively.
