It Prevents and It
Cures Boldness
Ayer's Hair Vigor will
surely make hair grow on
bald heads, provided only
there is any life remain-
ing in the hair bulbs.
It restores color to gray
or white hair. It does not
do this in a moment, as
will a hair dye; but in a
short time the gray color
of age gradually disap-
pears and the darker color
of youth takes its place.

Fifty-Olio Ilrtilge* for It. SS O. R. R.
Baltimore, Jan. 23.—One of the largest
bridge contracts that has been award-
ed in many years has been let by the
receivers of the0Baltimore and Ohio
railroad. In order to place the lines
west of the Ohio river in proper shape
to handle the heavy freight equipment
that is being used east of the river
the receivers found it necessary to re-
build 51 bridges between Benwood, W,
Va., and Chicago. That the structures
might be rapidly Opushod to comple-
tion it was (Jeciciea to divide the work
among three companies. The Youngs-
town Dridge Company of Youngstown
■will erect 31 bridges on the Central
Ohio division between the Ohio river
and Newark, Ohio; the Pencoyd Bridge
Works was awarded the 11 bridges on
the Lake Erie division, New'ark to
Bandui'ky, and the Edge Moor Bridge
('■ : •; v.y of Wilmington, Del., will
erect the 9 bridges needed on the Chi-
cago division. The total cost of these
brid, • s is in the neighborhood of $300,-
000 and it is expected that all will be
Jn place by September. Nearly bIx
thousand tons of steel will bo needed
for the structures. •

ONLY SIX NEGATIVE VOTES.
Washington, Jan. 23.—The Senate
passed tho Nicaragua canal bill Satur- \
•day by a vote of yea« 4s, nays 6.
Those voting in the negative were
Senators Caffery, Bate, Mantle, Cock-
rell. Smith and Martin. The vote was |
a surprise to even the most sanguine ,
advocates of the bill.
The bill? which was introduced by !
Senator Morgan of Alabama, chair-
man of tho Senate committee on the
construction of the Nicaragua canal,
was subjected to many important
changes in the committee, and it was
further altered by amendments so
,that, as it passed, it is widely differ-
ent from the original measure. Its
most important features are as fellows:
It provides for the appointment of
three commissioners by,the President
to ascertain the value of the property
of the Maritime canal company. The,se
commissioners are to report to the
President direct. When they have
made their# report and the Maritime
Cana? company has called in all of its
outstanding stock and scrip for stock
and freed itself from obligations of
every character, the secretary of the
treasury is to issue warrants to the
amount of the value of the property,
ascertained by the commissioners, not
to exceed ®5,Qu0,000. Then tho Mari-
time Canal company is to transfer to
tho United States government $92,500,-
000 of its stock-, to Nicaragua 86,000,-
000, ?lnd to Costa ltica 81,500,000, as
required by# concessions from those
countries.
The President, is to appoint five
directors "whose nominations shall be
confirmed by tho Senate and who shall
be paid a salary of 85,000 a year, Ni<?-«
aragua and Costa ltica each to be ^en-
titled to one director to be paid by
those governments, respectively. Tift
President is also authorised to enter
into negotiations with the govern-
ments of Costa Rica and Nicaragua for
whatever changes in the concessions
he may consider necessary. He is
farther authorized to negotiate with
any power for the abrogation of any
treaty which may conflict or interfere
with the right to own and control tho
canal.
In the event of his inability to ob-
tain from Costa Rica or Nicaragua
such changes in the concessions for
constructing the canal along the line
of the San Juan river and Lake Nica-
ragua, the President is authorized to
negotiate for any other route from
any other power that may in his judg-
ment seem desirable. No money is to
be paid to the Maritime Canal company
until it sliall'te fully determined and
decided to build the canal under its
concessions and along the route pre-
scribed thereby.
The President may direct the detail
of army engineers for the construc-
tion of the work and tho government
of the United States will agree with
Nicaragua and Costa ltica to guaran-
tee the neutrality of the canal and to
protect it from any and all interrup-
tion.* In the negotiations, the Presi-
dent, if he sees fit, may require per-
petual ownership to be granted the
United States.
The Nicaraguan canal hill was in-
troduced in the Senate June 20 by Sen-
ator Morgan, who has since constantly
urged its passage. The chief point of
difference between it and other Nic-
aragua canal bills which have been bo-
fore Congress is that the present
measure secures for this government
absolute ownership of the canal. I!y
its provisions tho United States be-
comes in fact the canal company. The
present bill does not permit of the
slightest joint interest or anything in
the nature of private control.
DYNAMITE AT OMAHA.
Attempt Marie to Jllow Up the Residence
of u Parking House Manager.
South Omaha, Neb., Jan. 23.—About
3 o'clock yesterday morning an at-
tempt was made to blow up with dy-
namite the residence of E. II. Towle,
the manager of tho Omaha Packing
company. No explanation can bo made
for tho attempt except tho theory that
the work was done by persons recent-
ly discharged from the service of the
company. A reward of 81,000 has
been offered for the arrest of the per-
uetrators.
W. 1*. Alleutt Dead.
Kansas City, Mo., Jan. 23.—William

with tho packing house industry", died

MAY HOLD THE PEACE TREATY1
Senator Davis Said to nave Declared lie
Will Not Consent to a Vote Now.
Washington, Jan. 23.—It is said
that Senator Davis, in charge of
the peace treaty, told a delegation
from the opposition to-day that
he would not at present consent
•to a vote upon the treaty, Cor until he
was satisfied that the treaty would be
ratified. He asked for the list of
names of opposing senators and was
given the inames of thirty-six senators
who, it was declared, would vote
against ratification.
Senator Phvis was further told that
tho defeat or postponement of the
treaty could be prevented by agreeing
to an amendment or even to a resolu-
tion declaring it to be not tho pur-
pose of the United States to main-
tain permanent sovereignty in the
Philippine islands. Senator Davis de-
clined to accede to this proposition,
saying that he would prefer to have
the treaty go .over until another ses-
sion. •
. EARTHQUAKE IN GREECE.
Several Villages Practically Destroyed—
Much Damage Done.
Athess, Jan. 23.—"A strong seismic
disturbance was felt yesterday morn-
ing about half past 9 o'clock through-
out th?i Peloponnesus (the southern
part of the kingdom of Greece), espe-
cially in the southwestern depart-
ments of the peninsula. All the
houses in the town of Philiatra, in the
department of Messenia, on the Ionian
coast have been damaged and the in-
habitants are now camping out in the
suburbs. Two villages in the vicinity
of Philiatra wero completely de-
stroyed, many people being slightly
injured. •
The villages of Kyparissis and
Staso were also practically destroyed,
though it is not known as yet whether
there were ayy victims there.
SAINTS AGAINST ROBERTS.
The PolygamUt Ilepresentatlve Opposed
by St. Louis Mormons.
St. Louis, Mo., Jan. 21.—Members
of the Reorganized Church of Latter
Day Saints in St. Louis oppose the
seating of Congressman-elect B. H.
Roberts cfn the ground that he is a
pronounced polygamist. At a business
session of the church here the question
was discussed and a vote was taken,
resulting in the adoption of strong
resolutions against his being allowed
to take his seat in Congress.
AGAINST FAST MAIL,
Washington, Jan. 21.—In committer
of the whole the house eliminated from
the postoftice appropriation bill the
825,000 for the fast mail from Kansas
City, Mo., to Newton, Kan., ayd alsc
the provision for fast mail from N8w
York to New Orleans.
Mr. Moody of Massachusetts at-
tacked the proposed appropriation
vigorously, claiming that it served no
purpose e*ccept to carry morning pa-
pers printed in Kansas G'it£ to New-
ton, Kan.
Chinese Indorse a Reform
London, Jan. 2'i.—The Ilong- Konj*
correspondent of the Times says: "A
crowded meeting of the leading com-
mercial Chinese, held at the Chinese
chamber of commerce, unanimously
approved the views recently expressed
here by Lord Charles Beresford as to
the necessity for reform, the main-
tenance of the 'open door' and the re-
organization of the army and navy
under British officers. It was a spon-
taneous Chinese meeting, unprompted
by foreigners and was therefore highly
significant." 9
Demented Twins Perish.
Shklbina, Mo., Jan. 23.—Twin
brothers, known as the "Barton
twins," aged about 3(5 years, who have
been demented from birth, were left
alone in their home near here Friday
night while the older brother .went to
church. In some manner unknown
the house took tire and burned to the
ground. Tho .charred bones of the
brothers were found in the ruins.
Madrid Has Ileen Notified.
Madbid, Jan. 23 —^The Washington
government lias notified Spain of its
intention to endeavor to secure the
release of the Spanish prisoners in the

A Possible Result of the Latest
Complicatiocs in the Islands,
A PRESENTATION -TO BERLIN,
Washington, Jan. 23.—As a result
of tho cabinet meeting and of •com-
munications exchanged by Secretary
Ilay and Sir Julian Pauncefote, there
is every reason to believe that a joint
representation will bo made to the
Gorman foreign office by the American
and British ambassadors in Berlin.
The present complication may end by
the. division of the islands among
America, Enpland and Germany.
While • the 'officials are reticent,
it is generally under.ftood that the
note to be presented will main-
tain that the tripartite treaty
has been grossly violated by the
action of the German consul
and tho former president of the mu-
nicipal council of Apia; that they have
interfered in the election of a suc-
cessor to the late Malietoainan illegal
manner; that the usefulness of the
German consul in Apia has ended and
that it is to the interest of Germany
as well as ^o that of frhe other powers
signatory to thb Berlin act to not only
disavow the action of her consul and.
of the former president of tho munici-
pal council, but to withdraw them at
once from tfte islands. •
It has transpire 1 that the real rea
son why Herr Rafael was recalled
from the presidency of the municipal
council of Samoa was because of his
aspirations to be made chief justice.
When a report of the matter was made
to this government s'teps were taken
to secure his immediate recall.
This government will sustain the de-
cision of the chief justice and place
Tanus on the throne? unless the decis-
ion after consideration shall be held
to be manifestly illegal. In this case
negotiations will be begun*for another
election. It is believed in well in-
formed circles that one of the results
of the present complication will bv3 a
revision*of the treaty of Berlin. #

Favor of tlie Archbishop.
Wasiiimbton, Jan#^3 The secretary
of the interior atlirmed tho decision of
the commissioner of the general land
office to-day in the case of Archbishop

TO MOVE A STATE LINE.
The Kansas I-oRislatnre to Authorise a
Suit to Secure 1'art of Missouri.
Kansas City, Jan. 23. — The Kansas
legislature, now in session at Topeka,
will be called upon before tho close of
its present session to pass a bill au-
thorizing Attorney General Godard to
institute proceedings in the United
States supreme court for a resurvey of
the boundary line between Kansas and
Missouri, with the idea of securing a
goodly slice of the latter state for Kan-
sas. The bill, it is reported, was* pre-
pared in Kansas City and sent to To-
peka yesterday and will be introduced,
in legislature some time next week.
The bill was prepared in confwrnjity
with, a belief which has long existed
in the minds of many, old residents of
Kansas that the state line is nearly
one-half mile west of where it should
be, and that the state of Missouri is
exercising jurisdiction over a strip of
territory, extending from Kansas City
to the Southern line of the state,
which really belongs to Kansas. #
At all events the Iiansans who are
behind this movement contend that a
"large part _of the West bottoms in
Kansas City," Mo., which contains
many large wholesale establishments,
implement houses, manufactories, rail-
road depots and yards and the Dold-
packing house as well as the Missouri
part of the stock yards, is soil right-
fully belonging to Kansas. By a re-
survey of the state line under a com-
mission appointed by the Supreme
court of the United States they hope
to reclaim this valuable territory for
their state. • •
