Dr. King’s New Discovery and you will
get almost immediate relief. It checks
your cold, stops the racking, rasping,

As a bad man, William S. Hart does
some excellent shooting in th* Ince-
Triangle play, “Hell’s Hinges.” Hart has
the role of Blaze Tracy, who is quick
on the draw and a d?ad shot. To show
his prowess. Hart keeps a tin can in the
air for several seconds by a fusillade
from his revolver. Another great feat he
pulls when he severs the wires by
which the lamps are suspended in a sa-
loon.
And Hart shows himself a wonderful
horseman, too. For instance., he rolls
down an embankment on horseback and
then jump$ about ten feet into the sad-
dle. Hart had to practice this stunt
three times before he was able to get
it properly registered by the camera.
Though he was sore from landing such
a distance in the saddle. Hart showed
his gameness in continuing till the pic-
ture was complete.
“Hell’s Hinges” is to he shown at the
Princess Theatre Monday.
Ball Team to Lewisville Today
The High School baseball team left

Lewisville is expected to put up a game
fight for the victory in trying to get
revenge for their recent defeat at the
hands of the local players.
A game is scheduled for tomorrow af-
ternoon with Sanger High. The game
will be called at 3 o’clock on the High
school grounds. The Denton boys have
not played the Sanger team this season
and so do not know the actual ability

esting game is promised.

I In an orchestra, as in any large self-
perpetuating organization, changes con-
tinually go on which look to the im-
provement of the general personnel and
the attainment of a greater unity and
harmony in the general body.
In the New York Philharmonic Or-
chestra, which plays here on April 29
at the C. I. A., such changes looking to-
ward the goal of perfection have been
going on in a greater or less degree
for the last seventy four-years of the
existence of this institution.
And this year too, the orchestra has
some new faces among its members.
Some of the players have been replaced
by better musicians.
The violin section which has always
been noted for its great brilliancy will
be further improved by the addition
of some new players. These were sub-
jected to trial performances and first
class instruments were considered es-
sential in the selection. Maximilian Pit-
zer, who won unqualified approval last
season, remains concertmeister and F.
Lowack, J. J. Kovarik. Leo Schulz, and
Humbert Buldrini again head the dif-
ferent string sections. Mr. A. Marchet-
ti, an exceptional artist has been secur-
ed as the orchestra’s English horn play-
er and the percussion section has been
augmented to four players.

“Things are looking fine in the West,”
said D. K. Allison who returned Thurs-
day night from a trip to Texhoma, Ok.,
and Post City, Texas. He was accompa-
nied by his nephew, C. H. Allison, of
Texhoma, for a business visit here.
At Post City Mr. Allison spent several
days at the bedside of his grandson, Al-
lison Edwards, small son of Mr., and
Mrs. E. S. Edwards, who has been very
sick with diphtheria, but was out of
danger when Mr. Allison left. Prompt
administration of the serum minimized
his illness and prevented his smaller
brother, Jack, from developing the dis-
ease. '
. At this week’s meeting of the , Live
Wire Literary Society of the Denton
High school a motion was made and
carried to disband the society until next
September on account of heavy school

of the society had increased fram twen-
ty members, at the first meeting, to sev-

One of the prettiest plays of Its kind
ever staged at the Normal College was
given last night in the auditorium by
the Current Literature Club of the Col-
lege. It was in the form of a Texas His-
torical Pageant in celebration of San
Jacinto day. ,
The stag* was artistically decorated
with ferns and other plans which
gave the play a woodland atmosphere.
TioVplay opened with Stephen Austin,
impersonated by Miss Delpha Russell,
pleading with Santa Anna (Miss Beuna
McGuire) for the separation of Texas
from Mexico. Santa Anna refused and
Austin returned to Tews where he
found his people preparing for w’ar.
Sam Houston was then chosen comman-
der and then led his valiant soldiers to
victory over Santa Anna who is cap-
tured and brought tn Texas as prisoner
of war. The soldiers overpowered the
guards and were about to murder Santa
Anna but were stopped by Houston who
came in on crutches as a result of the
battle. After eight years passed the sol-
diers gathered for celebrating the ad-
mittance of Texas into the United
States and after being addressed by Sam
Houston, who is still suffering from his
wound, all Joined in singing the nation-
al airs.
Miss Zella Holman in the role of Sam
Houston acquitted himself with honor.
The Indian dance proved very effective
in producing an early day effect and the
flag march given by a number of young
ladies dressed in beautiful white dresses
trimmed with the national colors was
an inspiring sight. Another group of
young ladies dressed as kindergarten
children contributed much to the play
by singing several songs and giving folk
dances.

A district singing association is to
be organized at Cooper Creek school
houses at an ail-day meeting Saturday.
It was recently decided that district
organizations, probably four in the
county, would be organized for conven-
ience of members,'under the direction
of the county association. A Krum
organization has been formed and the
Cooper Creek organization will be Dis-
trict No. 2. Others will probably be
formed in the Lewisville and Roanoke
sections.
At the meeting Saturday officers for
the district association will be named
and other matters of interest to the
work attended to. The meeting is ex-
pected to continue all day, and dinner
will be served on the ground.
V. A. Cruse of‘Krum and B. F. Don-
ald and W. A. Leuty, officers of the
county association, will attend the
meeting with a number of singers, and
assist in the w!ork of organizing.
Dangers of Draft.
Drafts feel best when we are hot and
prespiring, just W’hen they are most
dangerous and the result is Neuralgia,
Stiff Neck, Sore Muscles or sometimes
an attack of Rheumatism. In such cases
apply Sloan’s Limiment. It stimulates
circulation to the sore and painful part.
The blood flow’s freely and In a short
time the stiffness and pain leaves.
Those suffering from Neuralgia or Neu-
ralgia Headache will find one or two
applications of Sloan’s Liniment will
give grateful relief. The agonizing pain
gives way to a tingling sensation of
comfort and warmth and quiet rest and
sleep Is possible. Good for Neuritis too.
