GREW AND REGISTERED

In the years that followed the company grew and prospered. In those days com petitive drills were the fashion, and the "J. V.ss" won their share of cups and medals. At the Hawes riot of December s. 1888, they got a taste Of real service, and did their share in maintaining law and order. The big strike of 1894 kept them in service all summer. From that time on they seldom missed call for riot duty, or a competition of any kind.
 In 1898 when war was declared on Spain, the Jefferson Volunteers were among the first to offer their services. Under the command of Capt. Hughes B. Kennedy, they were mustered into service as Company G, First Alabama infantry. The regiment, like scores of others, did it's quota of hard service in training camps. It did duty at Mobile, Jackson vile and Miami, and was finally re- turned to Birmingham to be mustered out Although it never had a chance at active service, or heard hostile shot, the First Alabama had it's full share of hard work. and privation. The Jefferson Volunteers lost while in the service the universally loved Phil Finch, whose memory still lives.
 After the war the company was reor- ganized as Company G, Third infantry, Alabama National Guard, and after that regiment was mustered out in 1911, be-
 
 try.
 At the call of the National Guard into federal service last June the company went to mobilization camp at Montgom- cry and was mustered into the service June % They went to the border last October, and served for five months at Nogales, Ariz. They have been contin- uously in the service for more than a year.
 The company is now rapidly filing up for war service in France. The present officers are, Mortimer Jordan, captain; Alan M. Smith, first lieutenant, and Wal ter R. Lawson, second lieutenant. The noncommssoned officers are James E. Russell, first sergeant; John P. Davis. supply sergeant Harry P. Couch, mess sergeant, and Leslie J. Willard, Lester M. Cullen, Berney B. Loveman, Edward M Leath and Cecil V. Rainey, sergeants. The corporals are Wallace McCreery, William J. Patjans, Stephen D. Elkins, John D. Sherrill and Presley E. Love.
 Among the former captains of the com pany were Louis V. Clarke. l.. K. Plos- ser, John T. Yeatman, Robert Gregory, Hugh Miller. J. Cary Thompson, John Warren. T. w. Cole, Ike Tull, and Joel D. Carlisle.

HELPFUL WORDS
From a Pine Bluff Citizen.

Is your back lame and painful?
 Does 1t ache especially after exer- tion? Is there a soreness in the kidney region?
 These symptoms suggest weak kid |neys.
 If so there is danger in delay.
 Weak kidneys get fast weaker.
 Give your trouble prompt atten- tion. Doan's Kidney Pills are for weak kidneys. Your neighbors use and recommend them. Read this Pine Bluff testimony. Mrs. w. E. Lambeth, 1901 East Sixth street, says: q, and others of the family have used Doan's Kidney Pills for troubles causee by weak kid neys, such as pain in the back, dizzy spells, headaches and irregular kidney action. Doaa's have always brought prompt relief. We are never without a box of Doan's Kidney Pills in the house and generally get them at the Mann Tankersley Drug Co.," Price soc, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for kidney remcdy-get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that

After the colonel had patented his in- vention he presented it to the public.
 Since he became chief of the avia- ton section of the Signal corps Gen. eral Squier has displayed the same thoroughness in his study of the sci ence of aviation that he did in his early electrical investigations.

SnarrnAu in New Role.

An incident probably unique in the
annals of the stage was witnessed by
a crowded house at the opera house
in Cape Town during matinee. I'm
mediateIy the curtain rose on the gar
den scene in which a parrot and perch
are a feature, a sparrow flew down
from the dome of the theater onto the
stage and hoped and flew about quite
fearlessly. picking up the parrot food
and the ground rice (thrown in this
scene) at the feet of the astonished
actors. taking not the slightest notice
of their movements. not even the dane
ing disturbing its equilibrium. When
the scene neared its end the sparrow
flew up onto the front of the dress cir
Gle and then disappeared in the dome.
The incident caused the greatest
amusement. both to the company and
to the audience-the latter being quite
under the impression that the sparrow
had been trained and was part of the
show.
