AWFUL ITCHING ON SCALP.
• --
Hair Finally Had to Be Cut to Save
Any—Scalp Now In Good Condition
Cured by Cutieura.
"I used the Cutieura Soap and Oint-
inent for a diseased scalp, dandruff,
and constantly falling of hair. Fin-
ally 1 bad to cut my hair to save any
at all. Just at that time I read about
the Cutieura Remedies. Once every
week I shampooed my hair with the
Cutieura Soap, and I used the Oint-
ment twice a week. In two months’
time my hair was long enough to do
up in French twist. That is now five
years ago, and I have a lovely head of
hair. The length is six inches below
my waist line, my scalp is in very
good condition, and no more dandruff
or Itching of the scalp. I used other
remedies that were recommended to
me as good, but with no results. Mrs.

Languages in Russia.
There are towns in Russia where
language Is diverse—Revel on the
Baltic, for example, one of the ear-
liest of the mutineering centers dur-
ing the present uprising. A writer
in the London Chronicle says he has
walked along the cab rank in the
square of the little town and found
drpshky drivers who spoke as their
native tongues Russian, Finnish, Ger-
man, Swedish, Lithuanian and Yid-
dish. And there were but ten drosh-
kies on the stand.
ANCIENT WISBECH.
Commercial Capital of the East An-

Wisbech, commercial capital cf the
Bast Angalian Fenlands. once stain-
ed her skin with woad, and went to
market with Roman coins in hand
before purses and pockets were in
fashion. She was weather-beaten,
metaphorically and literally, in 1266,
when "the sea rose continually in
flowing for the *:>ace of two days and
a night, without ebbing, by reason
of the mighty winds, and the town
was utterly destroyed; even the solid
stone towers of William’s castle were
not able to resist the rush of waters.”
Poor old King John had reason to
remember this castle, for he made
It the jumping-off place for that dis-
astrous effort to cross the Washes in
which he lost his army, his treasure,
his self-respect and his desire to live.

CLAIM SENATE IS EXTRAVA6ANT.
Question Arises on Building of Light
House — Congressman Reeder
Wants to Know Whether Railroads
Have Combined.
Washington, Jan. 8. — The house
committee on interstate and foreign
commerce hna decided to defy the
senate in connection with all light-
house measures and similar bills
which must be passed on by the com-
mittee. It has been the practice of
the house to frame these measures
In such a way that a sum of money
not specified, but not to exceed a
certain amount, is to be used for the
particular improvement. The senate
invariably has changed such bills so
that they appropriate a fixed amount.
This system is regarded by the mem-
bers of the house interstate and
foreign commerce committee as be-
ing conducive to reckless expendi-
tures and the members of the house
will refuse to accept such a bill here-
after, and purpose forcing the sen-
ate to indorse measures which will
encourage the completion of work at
the lowest possible cost and the sav-
ing of balances which may remain.
This action of the house committee
is in line with the general opposition
which the house is offering to what is
declared to be the encroachment of
the senate upon its rights.
Representative Reeder of Kansas
Introduced a resolution requesting the
attorney general to investigate and
report to the house whether there
exists or has existed a combination
or agreement between the Pennsyl-
vania railway system, the Norfolk
and Western railway, the Baltimore
and Ohio railway, the Batimore and
Southwestern company, or any two or
more of these companies in violation
of the anti-trust law.
STANDARD OIL HEARING.
Missouri Ouster 8uit Examining Wit-
nesses.
New York, Jan. 8.—The taking of
testimony in two suits brought by
Jthe state of Missouri to oust the
Btandard Oil Company of Indiana, the
'Waters-Pierce Oil Company and the
Republic Oil Company from Missouri,
and to prevent the carrying out of an
alleged pooling agreement among the
companies mentioned, was begun
here before Frederick W. Sanborn,
a special commissioner appointed by
Gov. Folk. Herbert S. Hadley, at-
torney general of Missouri, conduct-
ed the state's case and attempted to
show from the witnesses introduced
that the Waters-Pierce and Republic
Companies were in reality but sub-
sidiary concerns of the Standard Oil
Company, the Indiana branch of
which conducts the Standard’s busi-
ness in the west.
During the hearing there were a
number of lively tilts between oppos-
ing lawyers, one resulting in a de-
mand by the attorneys for the defend-
ant companies that the testimony be
taken down verbatim in long hand by
the commissioner. Attorney General
Hadley agreed to this, saying he
could remain at the hearing as long
aa any one else.

New York. Jan. fi.—Lyman Gage,
former secretary of the treasury. *ald
that he agrees with Jacob Schlff In
the opinion that a great panic Is Ine-
vitable unless steps ure taken to
remedy (he Inelasticity of the exist-
ing currency system.
“I ugr» e positively with Mr.
Schlff." said Mr. Gage, "thut the
monetary conditions which have ex-
isted In this country during the last
sixty days are disgraceful to us as a
nation and I further agree with him
:hnt a smutting panic Is but a mat-
ter of time unless something la done.
The more promptly and effectually
this Is done the better for tbe United
States.
"In my opinion there is -no Imme-
diate danger, but the danger itself
Ir apparent and If the country sits
passive under existing conditions the
country will suffer. I don’t under-
stand how any careful and thought-
ful financier can fail to realize tbe
peril."

Dispatches from Taganaerog and
Rostoff-on-Dan report continued fight-
ing in the revolutionary movement,
in which several persons have been
killed or wounded.
At Radom, in Russian Poland, a
bomb was thrown at the chief of po-
lice while he was waiting in the
street with his wife. The latter was
killed and the chief was terribly in-
jured, both of his legs being torn off
by the explosion. Some bystanders
were also injured.

SOME WERE TORN TO PIECES.
Bluefields, W. Va., Jan. 6—Twenty-
one miners in the Coaldale Company’s
shaft at Coaldale, W. Va., were prob-
ably instantly killed by an explosion
that took place there. Three white
men and eighteen colored men were
entombed, and no hope is held out
that any of them escaped death. The
explosion was of terrific force and
caused intense excitement throughout
the surrounding country, many people
believing an earthquake had occur-
red. The mining cars and most of
the property used In the mines are
supposed to have been blown to
pieces.
One man was brought out. He was
H. C. Conrad, and his body was lit-
erally torn to pieces. His clothing
was hanging in shreds.
Un to a late hour no other bodies
bad been recovered. There was much
smoke and gas in the entries and not-
withstanding the fact that the big
fans were in good order and were
working with full capacity, the gas
and smoke were not being driven out
very fast.
' - The Coaldale shaft is owned and
operated by the Cooper Brothers, who.
are also owners of the Mill Creek
and McDowell Coal and Coke Com-
panies. The Coaldale plant is con-
sidered one of the best operations
in the field. Ed Cooper Is on the
ground supervising the rescue work.

Coineideneet In Names.
Of a coincidence in names u corre-

tbe following examples: There was
a household In Clifton In which there
wore In domestic service Mrs. Pld-

maid) and Mrs. Hawks (charwoman).
But that Is trifling compared to the
case of the old chapel at Favcrsham,
where Rev. H. J. Rook used to offi-
ciate. Sparrow and Cuckoo were the
names of the deacons In his time,
Mrs. Martin was the chapel-keeper,
Mr. Lark, MIrb Crow and MIrs Night-
ingale were members of the congre-
gation and the chapel was, and is,
situated in Partridge lane.

Depressing Orators. <■
Congressman John Wesley Gaineo
of Tennessee, and Robert Adams, Jr.,
of Pennsylvania, somehow or other
have acquired reputation as being
very poor speakers. When either
begins speaking the galleries become
empty about as rapidly as though
the house were on fire. Mr. Adame
began a speech the other day and
there was such a rush outward that
the man whose duty it is to lower
the flag at the adjournment started
to perform that task. A member of
the house who had not been in lis-
tening to the speeches came to the
same conclusion ns he pusbed into
a crowded elevator. "When did the
house adjourn to?” he asked the
elevator conductor. "It hasn’t ad-
journed,” said he. “Mr. Adams, of
Pennsylvania, is speaking," he add-
ed, whereupon the member guessed
he would go home anyhow.
If you don’t get the biggest and best

The Poorest Senator.
#
The hew senator from Oregon, John
M. Gearin, thinks he Is the poorest
man to be found In "the millionaires*
club." This does not mean that he Is
n little less than a millionaire, bet
that, as he says, he owns no property
whatsoever. He owes nothing and
has lacked for nothing, but has failed
to accumulate anything from a lucra-
tive law practice, which he can fall
back upon with more prudence whew
he leaves the senate.
