CONGRESS TO CONVENE APRIL s
IN CALLING SPECIAL SESSION
PRESIDENT SPECIFIED NO
ONE SUBJECT.
Banking, Currency and Reform and an
Tariff Legislation Will Be First Al
to Be Considered, an
at
Washington.-ln issuing his call for w,
a special session of the Sixty-third on
congress, without specifying the legis- a
lation which he will ask the congress sil
to enact, President Wilson Monday de- th
feated the attempts of the conserva- w
tives under Floor Leader Underwood pt
to have him hold the legislation to the tii
tariff and the passage of the sundry si
civil and Indian appropriation bills, "r
which failed last session. at
By taking this course the president pc
leaves the matters of legislation which m
he will recommend to be treated in bl
special messages he will address to in
congress. The insistent desire of Mr. in
Underwood and Mr. Palmer of Penn- A
sylvania to prevent the taking up of u
currency legitlation at the special ses- la
sion has failed, for from sources close fo
to President Wilson it is learned that fo
the president adheres to his deter
mination to have congress pass at
least such tanking and currency legis
lation as will enable the government
to meet any attempt on the part of
any group of financiers to bring about
a disturbance or thre: tened disturb
ance to be held as a weapon over the
head of the administration. Such was
Mr. Wilson's idea as to what should be
done at the special session of con
gress along with tariff revision even
before he was sworn in as president.
The matter was discussed with the
then president-elect by Representa
tives Underwood and Palmer, among
others, and argument was made by
them against including any form of
banking and currency reform in the
extra session program.
The message which he will send to
the special session on its assembling
is expected to disclose in outline the
president's idea of what should be
done to head off any attempt to cre
ate an artificial panic. The president,
it is said, has already begun work on t
the message.
The extra session of congress, call- a
ed by President Wilson Monday to as
semble April 7, will begin with noth
ing but the tariff revision bills imme- b
diately before it. This fact was made
clear in a statement by Representa- (
tive Underwood, chairman of the
house committee on ways and means.
Until tariff legislation is well under
way in the house, no general commit
tee will be named and no other le';is
lative subjects will be taken up.
The president specified no subject a
for the extra session in his proclama
tion, but it is fully understood that
his message to congress at its open
ing will dwell upon the need of tariff
revision.
The date fixed for the tariff session
ws accepted by congressional lead
ers with satisfaction. Senate commit
tees are organized for iwork and will
take up the preliminary stages of
much general legislation early in
April. A general agreement exists,
however, to keep general subjects out S
of active discussion while tariff legis
lation is under way.
House leaders will be able to go
ahead with tariff revision as soon as
the session convenes. t
CARRANZA REB[LS CLASH WiTH FEDERALS
Nuevo Laredo Surrounded by Rebels.
Twenty-Four Killed in Battle.
Another Clash Likely.
Laredo, Tex.-Twenty-four dead ana
about forty wounded is the toll of a
two hiours' battle on the outskirts of
Nuevo Laredo Monday morning be
tween the federals and the Carranza
rebels. The victory went to the fed
erals, who lost two killed, while the
rebels lost twenty-two, but the city
of Nuevo Laredo is virtually sur
rounded by a superior force of rebels,
and it is expected that the attack
will be renewed soon. In fact, the
revolutionary leader has notified the
federal commander that he will at
tack and take the city within a short
time.
For some days past the lines of the
revolutionists have been closing in
around Nuevo Laredo and a futile ef
fort was made by the federal govern
ment to send reinforcements to the
small garrison located there, but the
rebels destroyed bridges and prevent
ed the transportation of troops north
ward.
Taft Resigns From Yale.
New Haven, Conn.-At the March
meeting df the Yale corporation Mon
day the resignation of former Presi
dent Taft as a member of the cor
poration was accepted with regret.
Mr. Taft, who is now Kent professor
of law in Yale, sent in his resignation
March 8, saying:
S"I do this because I do not deem it

SWALLOW HAD LONG JOURNEY
Positive Proof That Bird Traveled the
Distance From England to South
Africa.
The capture of a swallow bearing
an aluminum ring in Natal, South
Africa, the other day, has resulted in
an astonishing insight into the migra
tory habits of birds. From a number
and address stamped on the ring it
was discovered that the swallow was
one of 11,483 British birds marked in
a similar way last summer by enthu
siasts, desiring to learn more as to
the routes taken by bird migrants, and
whether birds return again to their
previous nesting sites. This systema
tic marking of birds began in 1909,
since when' nearly 32,000 have been
"ringed." About three per cent are
afterwards noted, but the swallow re
ported from Natal appears to have
made the longest flight so far. A
black-headed gull ringed as a nestling
in Yorkshire in July, 1911, was found
in February. 1912, in Flores, Azores.
A starling ringed in Berkshire in Jan
uary, '1912, reached llelsingfor, Fin
land, in April. A teal ringed in Staf
fordshire in the autumn of 1910 was
found at l)alarne, Sweden, July, 1911.

CRUST COVERED BABY'S HEAD
532 Biunswick St., Baltimore, Md.-
"My baby's face broke out in pimples,
which after bathing would weep and
form scabs until his head and face
were completely covered with a crust
and his hair all fell out. It was cross
and would not sleep. Each day it
spread until his entire face and head
were covered with weeping sores. I
tried several prescriptions, but did not
find any relief. Then I decided to try
Cuticura Soap and Ointment.
"After using them tw6 or three
times the sores dried up and after a
half dozen applications all disfigure
ment disappeared. In less than three
1 weeks the sores and scales were com
pletely gone, and baby's skin as
smooth and clear as when he was first
born. Cuticura Soap and Ointment
cured him." (Signed) Mrs. Lottie V.

Efficacious Spanking.
Little Martha was cantankerous and
just would not go to sleep, notwith
standing frequent orders from father
and mother, who were anxious to get
to sleep themselves. Finally, after
many threats, the mother arose, and
went through the motions of giving
Martha a spanking. There was hearty
squalling for a few minutes, then
quiet. The father and mother, re
Slieved, were dozing off again, when a
little voice piped up:
"Mamma."
No answer.
"Mamma, w'at 'd you 'pank md for?

Woman Is As Old As
She Looks
No woman wants to look old. Many in their
effort to look youthful resort to the "beauty doctor's"
prescriptions. Their mistake is that they visit the
wrong department in the drug store.
Beauty depends upcn health.
Worry, sleepless. nights, headaches, pains, di,
orders, irregularities and weaknesses of a distinctly
feminine character in a short time bring the dull eye,
the "crow's feet," the haggard look, drooping shoulders,
and the faltering step.
To retain the appearance cf youth you must
retain health. Instead of lotions, powders and paints,
ask your druggist for
Dr. Pierces fes"iptio.
This famous medicine strikes at the very root
of these enemies of your youthful appearance. It
makes you not only look young, but feel young.
Your druggist can supply you In liquld or
tablet form; or send 150 one-cent stamps to Dr.
Pierce's Invalids Hotel and Su.-gical Institute,
Buffalo, N.Y. and a trial box will be mailed you.
