MANY CROWDED IN
CITY REGISTRATION
OFFICE YESTERDAY
LARGE NUMBER OF VOTERS
VISITED CITY HALL, LOOKING
TO THEIR PROPER VOTING
QUALIFICATIONS.

Supervisor of Registration N. B.
Cook had large number of callers
yesterday, and much interest was
manifested in the matter of getting
thoroughly qualified, to be able to
vote in the city election in June.
One of the matters which about
every voter wanted to see was date
for the payment of poll taxes. 1t
was explained that polls for the city
election could be paid as late as Sat
urday, April 1, but that was the final
day of which they could be received
Transfers were being sought by
many at the registration officers
headquarters yesterday, but few new
voters were registered. Much activ.
ity on the part of some voters to gel
new voters qualified was noticeable
during the day, and before the end Of
the week quite number of new
names will probably appear on the
registration books.
District registration officers are no
empowered to furnish transfers, al
this coming directly under the per
sonal supervision of the registration
officer. This condition has forced
much hard work at headquarters, ant
dozens of transfers feature the duties
daily.

Acid Stornachs
Are Dangerous

Acid" stomachs are dangerous be-
cause acid irritates and inflames the
delicate lining of the stomach, thus
hindering and preventing the proper
action of the stomahc, and leading to
probably nine-tenths of the cases of
stomach trouble from which people
suffer. Ordinary medicines and medic
inal treatments are useless in such
Eases, for they leave the source of the
trouble, the acid in the stomach. as
dangerous as ever. The acid must be
neutralized, and its formation pre-
vented, and the best thing for this
purpose is a teaspoonful of bisurated
nnagnesia, a simple antacid, taken in
little warm or cold water after eat
ing, which not only neutralizes the
acid, but also prevents the fermenta-
ton from which acid is developed.
Foods which ordinarily cause distress
may be eaten with impunity if the
meal is followed with a little bisu-
rated magnesia, which can be obtained
from any druggist, and should always
be kept handy.-Adv.

DESTROYER BACK
FROM PATROLLING
THE TARGET RANCE
THE TERRY" WHICH WENT TO
ANCHORAGE OF BATTLESHIPS,
RETURNS TO PENSACOLA AND
TAKES FUEL SUPPLY.

After visiting and remaining for a
couple of days on the target range off
Fort Morgan, where the course was
faithfully patrolIed, the destroyer
Terry reached port yesterday, coming
into the bay about daylight, and later
in the day taking berth on the east
side of the Commandments wharf,
where a full supply of fuel oil will be
loaded.
The Terry will probably load 10000
gallons of the crude product from
tank cars, which are shunted to side
tracks on the wharf named There
were three cars on the wharf for the
destroyed last night.
Two dreadnaughts, the New York
and the Arkansas, were left at anchor
age in the gulf, nearer to Pensacola
than to Mobile, the Terry reported,
but it was not known whether they
would come over this way or not, the
understanding being that their next
destination would be off the coast of
Cuba, where a large fleet of naval
ships is now assembled, to undergo
winter maneuvers.
The Terry left here Saturday morn
ing for the target range, and remain
ed on duty there during the entire
several days of the heavy gun firing
at the emplacements near Fort Nor
gan. Her duties were to act as a
tender and patrol on the course, and
this was faithfully performed. The
firing ended Tuesday afternoon with
the setting of the sun, and the duties
on the course of the destroyer Terry
also ended, hence her return to this
port. 1t is understood that the Terry
is here for some weeks.
Other destroyers which were as.
signed to different ports on the gulf
and which were so assigned to add
dignity to the celebration of Mard
Gras, are all to return to Pensacola in
time.

 It is said that thousands of the Ser bian troops have fled from Montene- gro and have joined the Italian forces fighting against the Bulgars in Albania.

EDES WORKING FOR THE APPROPRIATION

WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan.s 18.-- Commissioner Edes, of the Alaskan Engineering commission of Alaska, recently appeared before the House Committee on appropriations and urged the appropriation of two mil ton dollars at once as an emergency measure to rush work on the Alaska railroad.
 He stated that the commission is eager to hasten work on the Matanus- ia road to the coal fields and that if the appropriation was made at an early date there was no reason why the hign grade coal from the Mata- nuska Eelds should not be on the market next fall.
 Commissioner Edes pointed out the immense value of the Matanuska coal Tor the navy on the Pacific coast as we'll as for assisting the industrial development of the territory and the Pacific coast states.
 Several prominent Alaskans also appeared before the committee and urged that the funds be made avail able at an early date and asserted that much of the work could be done to advantage during the winter months.

WASHINGTON: At the request of Fairfax Irwin of the United States Public Health Service in Philadel- phia, Senator Jones has interested himself in the search being made for Reginald F. Irwin, Mr. Irwin's son. who has disappeared from his post of duty as U. S. fish warden in Alaska.
 Reginald F. Irwin was last seen on October g, when he with two com panions, started on an inspection trip up the Chickamon river, near Ketch- ikan. Their wrecked motor boat has been found but no trace of the three men. tas
 All of the federal departments that have jurisdiction sin Alaska have in terested themselves in the search. principally, of course, the fisheries service. Thousands of dollars have been spent with no result. With suspicion of foul play growing, the matter has now been referred to the department of justice. which will have a further search made. In all probability a reward will be offered by the government for the recovery of the men or their bodies.--Seattle P.-

 BODY 0F THE DEAD
Send Remains of Body Purported to be that of Gen. Rodriguez to
 Fl PasO For Identification.

FL PASO. Jan1S.-In order that the American officials and the citi- zens of the border states might be convinced that the Carranza troops were punishing the bandits who ex- ecuted the American miners at Santa Ysabel canyon last week. the body of Mexican. purported to be that of General Rodriguez has been brought here.
 General Rodriguez, who was a former leader of the rebel army under General Villa, was killed by American miners who joined the Carranza troops in pursuit of the bandits after the robbery and exc cution.
 Mexicans who claim to have fought under General Rodriguez have identi- fled the body as that of the general but many Americans have expressed doubt as to its identity. The intense excitment which fol lowed the murder of the Americans by the bandits, and which threatened to cause volunteer companies to cross the border to avenge the mur- |ders. is beginning to subside and Americans are arriving daily from the district.

ROME |S PAYING
 HIGH FOR GOAL
Italian Dealers Have Been Unable to Secure Charter of Vessels to De-
 liver Fuel to City.

ROME, Jan. 1S.-Anthracite coal is selling for forty dollars per ton here and the supply is very limited owing to the dealers having been un- able to secure charters for steamers Ito carry fuel from the United States, the only fuel market which is open
 at present to supply Italy with coal. The shortage of coal has caused
 many industries to close down, throw ling thousands thousands of men out of employment. It has also seriously |interfered with the governments op- |erations and in the manufacture of munitions for the army.
 Prior to the beginning of the Euro pean war Italy drew upon the coal
 mines of Belgium and Northern
 France for her fuel, but as these mines are now under German con-
 trol she has been deprived of ship
 ments from that source. When the
 markets which had supplied her with
 coal for centuries failed Italy next turned to England but owing to the British miners union limiting the output of the mines the supply was and the Italian dealers turned to America. They have pur-
 chased thousands of tons of hard coal in the eastern states but have been
 unable to secure ships to transport it to Italy although they have been of- fering bonuses which in times of peace would have caused charters on of vessels to be offered.
