Every year increases the popularity OF
this valuable Hair Preparation; which is
due 10 merit alone. We can assure our old
patrons that 1t is kept fully up to its high
standard; and 1t is the only reliable and
perfected preparation for restoring GRAY
Or FADED HAIR to its youthful color, max
ing 1t soft, lustrous, and silken. The scalp
by its use, becomes white and clean. 1t re-
moves all eruptions and dandruff, and, by
its tonic properties, prevents the hair from
falling out, as 1t stimulates and nourishes
the hair-glands. BY its use, the hair grows
thicker and stronger. In badness, 1t re.
stores the capillary glands 10 their norma.
vigor, and will create q new growth, except
in extreme old age. 1t is the most econom.
ical HAIR DRESSING ever used, as 1t requires
fewer applications, and gives the hair a
splendid, glossy appearance. A. A. Hayes,
NJ. D.. State Assayer Of Massachusetts,, says,
"The constituents are pure, and carefully
selected for excellent quality; and consid-
er it the BEST PREPARATION for its intend
ed purposes"

repairing to the place, he found Hanson
covered up. with the exception of his head,
which he had managed to get above the
sand and debris. Assistance being called,
tour men worked for three-quarters of an
hour before they could extricate him from
his perlous position and when they sue
ceeded in releasing him, he was found to be
almost hayed alive. The sliding of the
sand and snow over him, down the steep
ravine, had torn every stitch of his clothes.
and rasped the skin eff Of him as though he
had been rubbed with sand-paper. His
long gum boots were rolled down STRAIGHT
around his ankles, so that they could ..onIv
be removed by cutting them off Thg IN
fortunate man was carried to his cabin.
and messenger dispatched to town for
Dr. Healey, from whom we learn that
though badly injured, no bones were
broken, and that Hanson is in a fair way
for recovery. 1t was certainly miracu-
lOus escape, and he may well congratulate
himself that his injuries are no worse.

How ia This 2

From the Ouaehita ntelhgencer.
VIII Mr.. Packard, or some of the gentle
men on his committee, please inform us
how the following parishes become entitled
to the number Of delegates set opposite
their names?
Bienville cast ninety-three Republican
votes in 1870, and has three delegates,
while Caldwell, with $40, has only one; Cata-
houla, with 459, only two; Claiborne, with
523, only two, and MOTehOuse, with SIG, only
two. Now, we would like to have some ex-
PLANTATION of this. According to the resolu-
ton, the basis of representation in the CON
ventiOn shall be as follows: Every $50 Re-
publican votes as cast at the last general
election, in each parish and in each ward of
the city of New Orleans, shall be entitled to
one delegate, and an additional delegate
for remaining fraction of over one-haIf of
that number, and provided that each par
ish and each ward in the city of New Or
leans shall be entitled to at least one dele
gate.
We don't know how it is with other sec
tons of the State, but it seems to us there
has been studied purpose on the part of
certain parties to ignore the claims of
North Louisiana. We can tell these gen
tlemen that we must and will have fair
showing.

Combs Consent.
MY DEAR STR-YOu will remember our
conversation about the Cincinnati cOnven-
ton and its probable nominees. | thought
it would be Adams, the son and the grand
son of President, and should have voted
for him with much pleasure; but the nOmi-
nation of Greeley was inspiration, and he
will sweep the country like a tornado.
Adams would have captured the educated
men Of intellect and principle, especially in
the cities and towns; but Greeley will not
only get their votes, but he will strike the
labOTing masses, educated and uneducated,
for he is one of them. We shall have a
REPETITION of the storm of 1910, which l
helped TO raise, as you may remember, and
l will blow blast or two, old as | am, for
the wonderful poor printer boy-the second
Franklin.
/ believe he will carry every former slave
State, as well as New York, Pennsylvania,
and part of New England, to say nothing of
the great Northwest and the Pacific from
tier. He is exactly the reverse of Grant.
First-He is well qualified, and under.
stands what craftsmanship means
SecOnd-He is kind-hearted and gentle as
a wOman-unrevengef and generous to
his opponents.
Third-He is a sober man-always has

She next resorted to the tumblers and

while he ungallantly knocked her down

The lady then left the shop, and dared him
to come out into the street. He accented
the challenge, and she began to box his
ears. The gentleman of drugs irritated by
this unklnd treatment, proceeded to kick
her in the stomach, whereat she departed.

Treading on the Toes of New Orleans.
From the St. Louis DemocratI


Steadily, month by month and year by
year the merchants of st. Louis advance
their commercial lines southwark. The
Red river, the Atchafalaya, Bayou Bar
thOlOmew, the YazoO, the Teche, Bayou
LafOurche, and numerous other districts
local to New Orleans, are rapidly becoming
direct patrons of this city. An Alabama
paper, noticing this tendency of the South
ern people to do a direct trade with this
city, says: "New Orleans is rapidly losing
her hold on trade in and around this section
of country. Planters, as well as dealers,
are learning to look to st. Louis for their
supplies. Their agents and travellers freely
traverse the South in every direction and
arrange for Order-flling upon terms fully as
fair as are given in New Orleans, while
prices are much cheaper. Among the ST..
Louis merchants selling large quantities of
provisions and produce in this section, we
may mention the firm of Herrick & Rob
erts, represented in this section by our
popular tOwnsman, Mr.. James M. Smith.
This house has built up very large trade
here. A railway official informs us that
their grain shipments alone to this city
during the last week amounted to $50 car

UNITED STATES SENATE CHAMBER,

To the Hon. James F. BabcOck:
My DEAR SIR thank you for your
pleasant cOngratulatory letter. | am CRATE
full to the Democrats who gave me their
votes. am a Republican, Indeed, and
probably always shall be- They are Demo-
Gratis, and not likely to change, and yet we
are not all antagonists, even in politics.
we have one country that we love, one
wish for its prosperity. We differ in many
ways about the best method l knew that
/ was acting in accordance with the plat
form of the party when l proposed to re-
move the disabilities which cucumber a
portion of the Southern people, and when
resisted an unconstitutional attempt to take
away from the people the management of
their local affairs; but l have found Demo
Gratis and Republicans alike giving me their
support in this position that have taken
upon these measures, and | am grateful to
both. The moral of the Senatorial election
in Connecticut is not that any party or fac
ton or individual has won triumph, but
that the people sustain independent thought
and action in their representatives.
Yours truly, o. S. FERRY.

Buried by Land slide and Saved by a
Dog.
From the Idaho CITY world. ApriI 25.1

From the Idaho City World, April ISL
On last Monday Mr. James Hanson, who
is engaged in mining in Eldorado gulch,
went from the claim to shut off the water,
and in a steep gulch or ravine under the
ditch started to prospect some ground,
when all at once, without warning, the
whole side-hill, capped with a huge bank of
snow, caved and slid down the ravine, a
distance of about seven hundred feet, bury
ing Hanson up, and carrying him along
with the sliding mass the entire distance.
Hanson's dog shortly afterward appeared
on the claim where Mr.. Kelly, Mr.. HansOn's
partner, was working, and was covered with
mud, and made some curious demOnstra-
tons to attract heIly's attention, but think
ing that the dog had only been chasing some
gophers, Kelly did not follow him and tbe
dog returned to the scene of the oatastronbe,
About two or three hours after that one IF

attention attracted By the dog, and heard

David LIvIngsfone. I'D.

After long interval of painful suspense.
the welcome news has at last reached us Of
the safety of this renowned and dauntless
African traveller. In face of every unfav-
Orable account regarding DIR. LivingstOne's
safety, his warm friend, Sir Roderick Muir
chison-who, alas, has not been spared to
hear the glad news-kept alive the hopes Of
his ultimate return.
1t will be reeOllect that Dr. Livingstone,
about four years ago set out anew on his
African travels, this time with the views
of determining precisely the source of
the Nile, upon which the explorations Of
Burton, Spoke and Grant, and Baker had
thrown some light, but not satisfactorily
solved. Two years ago the last letter from
Livingstone brought the information that
Lake Tanganyika and the Albert Nyanza of
Baker were one and the same sheet of water,
and this discovery places the source of the
Nile in the smaller lakes south of Tan
ganyika, five degrees further south than
Baker, the latest explorer before Living
stone, supposed it to be.
Not content with this achievement, the
daring traveller next appears to have set
himself, while he was at the business, to de-
termine another African mystery, the
source of the Congo, he having dropped a
hint in his last letter to this effect. What
he may have accomplished in this direction
is, of course, unknown as yet, but the thor
oughness with which he has been aceus-
toned to carry out whatever projects he
may have undertaken leads to the expecta-
ton that he has been successful, and that
we will shortly be treated to a further fas-
einating narrative of his iourneyings and
adventures among regions and tribes hith-
ertO unknown.
Of LivingstOne's birth and parentage the
particulars are sufficiently well known, and
may be recaDitulated by stating that he
was the son of piOus parents in poor cir
cumstances, and was born at Blantyre, on
the Clyde, near Glasgow. He worked in
his early life in factory there, and having
afterward studied medicine and divinity,
he went, in 1910, as a missionary to South
Africa, where he joined the Rev. Mr. Moi
fat, whose daughter, Mary, he married.
After several years work as medical mis-
sionary. he commenced that series of ira
wells which have now made him so famous.
1t is pleasant to consider that an Amer
lean expedition, fitted out at the expense of
Mr.. Bennett, of the New York Herald, and
led by the American traveller Stanley, has
been instrumental in thus assuring Living
stones safety, This generous Hberality
does credit to Americans, and especially to
Mr.. Bennett, and will not be without its
effect in strengthening the bonds of mutual
sympathy that unite the two great divisions
Of the AnglO-SaxOn race.

A mammoth century plant, forty feet in
height, and weighing three and half tons,
was recently shipped from Florida to par
ties in New York. The plant is on the eve
OF blooming a second time, and is therefore
nearly 200 years old. Its leaves extend
over an area the diameter of which is not
less than eighteen feet while the central
shaft or column on which the blooms are to
appear, though only few weeks old, has
already attained an altitude of fifteen feet.
1t is still growing at the rate of about six
inches day, and will continue to do so for
about three weeks longer, when all its
upper portion will become clothed with
mass of magnificent bell-shaped blossoms
OF purest white, hanging in dense clusters,
and extending for a space of not less than
four feet from the apex downward.

The schooner yacht Magic, one OF the fastest
boats ever owned by the New York Yacht club,
was sold yesterday by Rear Commodore Franklin
osgood TO Mr.. Rufus Hatch for the sun. OF $4,000.
The Magic is one OF the most popular boats hailing
from New York harbor, and after her victory two
years ago in the Queens Cup Race her name be-
came famous all over the world The Magic was
then the property OF Mr.. Osgood and ut the close
OF the season she was sold to Mr.. Lester Waiack'
The latter gentleman was, however, Iasci-
mated with the brilliant performances OF the
Columbia during the past season, and finally par.
chased the latter vessel from Mr.. FRANKLIN osgoou
and gave back the Magic In part payment. Last
Thursday the Magic was sailing as well az ever, and
would probably have won the New YORK club Re
