PRELIMINARY TRIAL
 OF KENz|E IS HELD.
Confessed Slayer of E. S. Gentry Arraigned in Lau-
 derdale County Court

Florence. January 13.-(Special)-On dale county court room was filled to capacity to hear the preliminary trial of Howard Kenzie, aged IS. confessed slayer of E. S. Gentry, aged 25, who was found dead on the outskirts of Florence on the morning of January 2, with pistol wounds in the head and breast
 An umbrella had been raised and placed over the dead mans face to pro- tect it from rain. The officers arrested Howard Kenzie and a man named Staggs on suspicion and since the dead man was reported to have had over 5000 on his person that day, prior to his death, it was believed to be a case of robbery. The first clue was a watch which Staggs had in his possess sion, which was identified as the dead mans property, and at that time Ken zie admitted the sale of the watch to Staggs.
 Later, after the men were confined in separate cells in the Lauderdale county Jail, Kenzie asked to see Sheriff Romine and confessed to the murder of Gentry which, he claimed, was done in self defense. Both kenzie and Gentry came Eere from Tennessee and have been em- ployed at nitrateS plant No. 2. Staggs conducts meat market. Staggs was released after Kenzie confessed to the murder. but at the preliminary hear ing the statements he made did not agree with those made to the officers previously, and he was rearrested and bound over to the grand jury without tail along with Kenzie. Kenzie claims he and Gentry were alone the night oe the murder, and after having some words about girl that they both went to see he shot Gentry before he could shoot him. However, there are strong circumstances III the case which lead to the belief that Gentry was robbed and murdered. This promises to be very interesting case to be tried at the next term of the circuit court.

COLUMBUS, MISS.

Columbus, Miss, January 13.-Special) The craxe for bobbed hair has struck students of the Mississippi Industrial In- stltute and College, and for sometime past local tonsoral artists have been kept busy relieving them of their black, brown and golden locks. The young ladies have not only found it possible to make their toilets more rapidly with bobbed hair, but have actually succeeded in finding practical use for their discarded tresses Miss Cora Q. Walker, head of the de- part1nent of chemistry at the college, has for quite a While past had members of her classes engaged in the work of an alyzing hair, and the supply became so short that some of her students recently found it necessary to shave the tail of the college mule in order to secure ma- terial for analyzation. The craze for bobbed heads finally saved the day, how ever, and the department is now plenti- fully supplied with human hair. which, according to the best authorities, is vast ly superior to that which comes from the tail of a mule.
 Mike and George Kerby, two Syrians who have been engaged in the dry goods business here for long time past, are preparing to sell out their stocks with the view of returning to their native heath, where they will make an effort to locate their parents. The Kerbys have been in this country about 25 years and have attained financial prosperity, having started out as peddlers and .hav- ing finally acquired interests in two large mercantile establishments. They have heard nothing from their parents since war broke out in Europe in 1914 and their sole object in making the pro- posed trip is to locate the aged couple
 letter recently received by Mayor Mechanism from Capt J. M. Bartlett, supervising training officer for the south eastern district, A. s. A., with headquar- ters in Montgomery, Ala, indicates that Columbus may be on one of the trans continental aerial mail routes, which it
 is the purpose of the federal government to establish. Captain Bartlett asks in formation about landing and other things, and the sdesired data will be promptly furnished by Mayor McClana- ham,.
