Right into our back yard and sat
And wagged his long gray velvet ears
And shifted about at this and that
As II he wondered where he was.
And then with scary little hops
He s-uttled up the garden paths
And nibhled at the rad!sh tops.

Spring is looked upon by many as
the most delightful season of the year,
but this cannot be said of the rheum-
attic. The cold and damp weather
brings on rheumatic pains which are
anything but pleasant. They can be

DANDRUFF GOES! HAIR GETS 1TH|CK,
 NAVY, BEAUTIFUL
Save Your Hair! Double Its Beauty in a Few Moments. Try
 This! Hair Steps Coming Out and Every Particle of Danruff
 Disappears.

Try as you will, after an appica- ton of Danderine, you can not find I single trace of dandruff of falling han and your scalp will not itch, but what will please you most, will be after a few weeks use, when you see new hair, fine and downy at first-yes-. but really new haii-growing all over the scalp.
 A little Dandcrine immediately doubles the beauty of your hair. No difference how dull, faded, brittle and scraggy, just moisten cloth with Danderine and carefully draw it through your hair, taking one small strand at time. The effect is inn mediate and amazing-your hair will be light, fluffy and wavy, and have an appearance of abundance; an in comparable lustre, softness and lux uriance, the beauty and simmer of true hair health.
 Get a 25-cent bottle of Knowlton's s Danderine from any drug store or toilet counter, and prove that your hair is as pretty and soft as any that it has been neglected or injured by careless treatment-that's all. Danderine is to the hair what fresh showers of rain and sunshine are to vegetation. It goes right to the roots, invigorates and strengthens them. It's exhilarating, stimulating and life pro- ducing properties cause the hair to grow long, strong and beautiful Adv.

RABBIT HUNT TRAGEDY
 PUTS NEGRO IN PRISON
AlonzO Thomas Pleads Guilty to Kill. ing Lum Alien, and Is Sen-
 fenced to Five Years.

Alonzo Thomas, q young negro, en- tered a plea Of guilty 10 manslaughter in the circuit court yesterday, and was sentenced by Circuit Judge W. B. SOrrellS to serve five years at hard labor. Thomas was indicted on a charge of second degree murder for the death of Lum Allen, near HeyWood on January ,, last. The young negroes were hunting rabbits when the killing occurred. Thomas claimed it was an accident, but told several conflicting stories. He did not report the homi- eide until compelled by Deputy Sheriff Cozey Ouattlebaum of Sherrill, after suspicion had been aroused by Aliens disappearance.
 Sentence was imposed yesterday by Judge Sorrells upon three convicted and penalized by juries last week. Turner Jackson will serve one year for selling liquor; Avant Lawrence was sentenced to six years for voluntary manslaughter, and Josh Calvin was sentenced to two and half years for forgery and uttering.
 The trial of w. P. Tomme, indicted on a charge of forgery and uttering, will be taken up April 20, having been continued from yesterday several weeks ago.
 J. D. Niven and w. H. Taylor were excused from further service as petit jurors, and Allen Orto and J. T. Crawford were empaneled.

). A. R. POLITICS ACTIVE AT THE
 261H CONGRESS
Three Candidates in Field to Succeed Mrs. Wm.
 Cummings Story.

Washington, April 15.-Everything is in readiness for the entertainment of the 26 continental congress of the Daughters of the American Revolu- tion, which is to begin it's regular ses- sions here Monday. With hundreds of delegates already crowding the ho- tels, mere man promises to be an in- significant creature in Washington for a week to come.
 This is election year with the Daughters and today things are boil ing politically around the hotels where the various candidates for office have established their headquarters.
 Most interest centers in the contest for the office of president-general, now held by Mrs. Williams Cummings Story of New York, who is ineligible for reelection. Mrs. George Thacher Guernsey of Kansas, who was defeated for the office two years ago by Mrs. Story, is again in the field. The con- test two years ago was bitter, but the indications are that the present struggle will far surpass the preceding contest in that respect. The election will take place Thursday.
 In addition to Mrs. Guernsey, three other candidates for president general are waging active campaigns They are Mrs. George o. Squire of St. Paul, Mrs. John Miller Horton of Buffalo, who was an unsuccessful candidate four years ago, and Mrs. J. Hamil- ton Lewis, wife of the Illinois senator. The supporters of Mrs. Guernsey claim she has more than enough dele
 gates pledged to insure her election. They predict that one or more of the opposing candidates will withdraw from the race before the day of the election.
 Formally organized 27 years ago by handful of women, the National So- ciety of the Daughters of the Amer jean Revolution today enrolls nearly 100000 active members. It has chap
 ters in every state of the Union, and in Cuba, China, Mexico and the Philip
 pines. The society is in perfect work ing order and has already organized ] its members for relief and other work | to aid the nation in the present great struggle.
 The preservation of the spirit of true Americanism has always been the | foremost object of the Daughters of | the American Revolution. It makes a cult of American history and tradi- tions. In the story of the women of the Revolution it interests itself par
 ticularly. The heroes of '76 have never
 been forgotten, but that the heroiness
 may live equally in the memories of posterity their daughters of today
 have pledged themselves.
 The society deals in something more ] IT. ooyo+,,ib,1to1 1orOn1V to the statute of General Washing
 ton contributed to France by the Am
 erican people. Its membership en-
 gagged in active relief work during
 war with Spain. The society has made
 valuable collection of books and rel
 ics relating to the early history of the
 republic. It has erected in this city
 a monumental edifice to serve as the
 national headquarters of the society
 and a center of patriotism.

Aldermen May Next Enact Rule Against Pigeons Fly
 ine at Large in City.

rho city council last night, in it's ,.iof session, adopted two ordinances, mas. 'na nrohibiting the employment of "street on, drummers' and the other pro Uniting the running at large of 1il nnicrens and other fowls. and in ad- G Gition instructed the chairman of the uo,;oo committee to confer with the pf psiof of nolice and to make proper re- ar+ onr and recommendations to the ppouncil relative to action to end the u;aoon nuisance in Pine Bluff.
 p4H Thore was no objection to the sstroot drumming" ordinance, and no a;scussion. The ordinance had been rrnnared as the outcome of a con- forence between the councils ordin- anoo committee and committee from tho tho retail merchants association, and hoth committees having been satls- s;od inc ordinance was passed under ansnonsion of the rules last night. It aoes 1os into effect as socn as it is signed, and the mayor is expected to affix his signature today
 The chicken ordinance is materially different from any other ordinance pronosed, to cover the conditions which have caused so much com nlaint in the past. Under the terms of inc ordinance, it is a misdemeanor for any one to allow chickens or other fowls to roam at large, and this is nnnishable by fine of not less than s1 or more than $5. In addition, chickens may be impounded by any nerson on whose property they roam, and damages may be claimed for any harm the fowls do, the damages to be fixed by any court of competent jurls- diction. If the damages are not paid in three days, the chickens or other fowls may be sold, the receipts from inc sale to be used for the payment of costs and the payment of the dam ages, the balance, if any, to be re- turned to the owner of the fowls.
 Fight Against Pigeons.
 It was during the discussion of the chicken ordinance that the pigeons were brought into the limelight AL derman Clement wanted to know if they could not be included in the same ordinance, but Mayor Bloom suggested that they be handled isl an entirely separate law In this he was support cd by City Attorney Wood.
 Alderman Clement said the pigeons worked perhaps even more damage than is done by chickens. and some- thing should be done to prevent them from eating up the backyard gardens.
