Tells of Hospital Evils.

Senator Greenhouse, chairman ot the Senate Committee on Public Charities, in his report of the com mittee's visit to the State hospital in- dicated that an investigation will be made of certain conditions at the in stitution. The report recommended that an investigation be made of per sons in the hospital being cared for by the state who have means of their own and of persons sent there to be taken care of at state expense who are not insane or subjects for treat ment by the hospital.
 "I know of one woman for whom the State is caring who is worth not less than S100.000." Senator Great house said. "I don't doubt that there are many other cases of that kind. know, too. that many persons are sent to the hospital who are not in sane. Men in Little Rock and other places get drunk and are sent there to sober np at the states expense. Others are sent there to be cared for by the state who have no cause to be in the institution. Some means should be taken to stop these evils At least they should be investigated"

 HAIR STOPS FALLING
Glossy, Fluffy, Beautiful-No More Itching Scalp.

Within ten minutes after an appli- cation of Danderine you cannot find single trace of dandruff or falling hair and your scalp will not itch, but what will please you most will be after few weeks use, when you see new hair, fine and downy at first-yes-but really new hair-growing all over the scalp.

The effect is amaz- ing-your hair will be light, fluffy and wavy, and have an appearance of abundance; an incomparable luster, s0ftness and luxuriance.
 Get 25 cent bottle of Knowlton's Danderine from any store, and prove that your hair Is as pretty and soft as any-that 1t has been neglected or injured by careless treatment-that's all-you surely can have beautiful hair and lots of It if you will just try lit. tie Danderine. Adv.

Around the Stntehouse
Bone Dry Law in Demand.

Considerable amusement was creat- ed when Senator Jones offered a reso- lution to have printed 200 copies of the "bone dry" bill. An amendment was offered by Alexander to make the number 800. Senator Alexander said he had received 37 letters in his morn ing mail asking for copies. President Davenport held that the bill was now law and that no resolution could authorize the printing of more copies, as an appropriation bill would be re quired for that purpose. Senator Col lins, in speaking against the resolu tion, said he didn't doubt that every. one in the state knew all the provi- sions of the bill. So far as I know" he said. "one copy of that bill was enough. We had 300 copies printed here and the newspapers printed it also. cant see the need of printing any more copies"

IT IS BELIEVED BY OPPONENTS OF THE EMORY BILL THAT IT
 WILL BE DEFEATED.
TO JUDICIARY COMMITTEE
Representative Hardase Expressed the Belief That 1t Is in Conflict With Section 15,s Article 19
 of the Constitution.

The Emory bill for the establish ment of a state printing plant to print the textbooks used in the Arkansas public schols met stiff opposition in the house. The opinion of those op- posed to the measure is that it lost what headway it had made. Fears were expressed by it's supporters, in which was finally taken would have tendency to defeat the bill.
 It had been favorably reported by the Committee on Public Printing When it was called up in the morning hour by Representative Riggs, MT Hardage moved that it be placed back on second reading for the purpose of referring it to the Judiciary Commit tee, so that the question of it's consti- nationality might be investigated. He expressed the belief that it is in con- flict with Section 15, Article 19, of the constitution, which reads:
 "All stationery, printing, paper, fuel for the use of the General Assembly and other departments of government. shall be furnished, and the printing, binding and distributing of the laws. journals, department reports and all other printing and binding, and the re- pairing and furnishing the halls and rooms used for the meetings of the General Assembly and it's committees, shall be performed under contract to be given to the lowest responsible bidder, below such maximum price and under such regulations as shall be prescribed by law. No member or of ficer of any department of the gov eernment shall in any way be inter- ested in such contracts and all such contracts shall be subject to the ap. proval of the governor, auditor and treasurer"

AVERSION TO BATHS
 CAUSE DISTURBANCE
MEXICAN DOMEsTlcS RESISTED THE AMERICAN QUARAN-
 TINE RULES.

Fl Paso, Texas.-Deep-seated aver sion of Mexican women of the peon class toward bathing caused anti American riots in Juarez. The riot ing became so violent that new in, ternational complications were feared and it may result in action by the military authorities here.
 Four hundred Mexican women, led by red-haired girl. started to cross the international bridge to go to their places of employment. They were barred by health officers acting under a new Quaratine rule, which provides that all persons without military passes must take disinfectant bath of vinegar and gasoline before enter ing Fl Paso.
 The women vigorously refused to submit to the baths. They attempted to push their way past the health of fcers and bridge guards but were driven back. Suddenly they turned their fury to a street car. crossing the bridge. The forces of the women were augmented quickly by. other women and children and later many men.
 Four street cars in Juarez and on the bridge were attacked The motor men and conductors were dragged from the cars and beaten. The cars were wrecked and burned.
 A United States mail wagon which was crossing the bridge was also wrecked by the mob The driver was beaten.
 In the midst of the rioting the Mexi can authorities issued orders direct ing that no Americans should be per mitted to enter or leave Juarez.
 For hours thousands of Mexicans gathered at the Juarez end of. the in ternational bridge shouting maledic tions at Americans and the United States troops on this side.
 During the progress of the rioting the impression became general that Villa had taken the city. While the crowds were cursing the Gringoes, the cry of Viva Villa" was started and even the Carranza soldiers joined in the cheering. Jose Maria Sanchez, prominent Mexican, was shot to death by Carranza officer for shouting "Vi- va Villa" A number of Gen. Mur- guia's troops were executed for the same reason, according to reports.
 The shooting brought several hun dred troops to the American side of the bridge. ready to cross into Mexi- co in case any bullets fell on this side, So far as is known this did not occur.

Get a 10-cent box now.


 Turn the rascals out-the headache, biliousness, indigestion, the sick, sour stomach and foul gases-turn them out tonight and keep them out with Cascarets.
 Millions of men and women take a Cascaret now and then and never know the misery caused by lazy liver, clogged bowels or an upset stom- ach.
 Don't put in another day of distress. Let Cascarets cleanse your stomach: remove the sour fermenting food; take the excess bile from your liver and carry out all the constipated waste matter and poison in the bowels. Then you will feel great.
 A Cascaret tonight straightens you out by morning. They work while you sleep. A 10-cent box from any drug store means clear head, sweet stomach and clean, healthy liver and bowel action for months. Chil- dren love Cascarets because they never gripe or sicken. Adv.
