TIE GREAT HAIR PRoDUoER.-Hair Oils, Pomatums
and Pomades have hsd their day. They belong to the
musty past Nobody that understands the chemistry OF
the hair and the philosophy of its growth thinks of
using them Instead of coggng the pores Of the scalp
with thick onguens, and thus obsrueng the insensibe
perspraton which is essential to the health of the
hbres we tone the of the head with an in
vgoraling application which penetrates to the roots of
the hair and stimulates them in the same way that the
tertizng agents spread the meadows stimulate the
grass roots aud cause the blades to spring up myads
coating the earth with verdure. The nvlgorant best
adapted to this purpose LYONS KATHAIRoN. It may
wei be called the fertilizer Of the head To the barren
scalp communicates vegetttive power If the halrls
dropping out or becoming dry and whered it arrests
the process of dilapidaon blight The hair thickens
and becomes glossy and flexible under its genial opera

JUSTICES JUsTICE.-Says the Pail Mall Ga
zette, fortnight ago two stokers employed at
Summervale mill, Bankside, Oldham, were sum
moued before the Oldham magistrates for leav-
ing work without giving a certain notice, as
required by the rules OF the mill. The men
pleaded in defence that the boilers were not
sale, and that they were afraid to work near
them. The magistrates commented severely on
the conduct OF the men, and characterized their
defence as flimSy one. They fined each de.
ienddnt los. and costs, and in addition ordered
them TO pay los. each, being the amount of
damage alleged TO have been sustained by the
proprietor of the mill, owing to the men leaving
work. One Of them, named Ellis, could NOT
raise the money, and was sent to prison for
fourteen DAYS, with hard labor. He was hber
Grated on Saturday. On that very day, strange
TO say, boiler explosion occurred at Summer
vale mlll, Bankside, Oldham. O4e stoker
was Killed and another seriously injured. The
Drlckwofk IN which the boiler lay was complete
ly shattered; the back portion of the boiler
mouse was blown away, and the smoke fue was
burst open. The explosion resulted from the
collapse Of one Of the fues; but what caused
TINS collapse remains TO be seen The boilers. il
is stated, are old ones, and were about to be
superseded by five new ones already fixed i'm
Drckwork. In the meantime if it should turn
out, suggests the Gazette, that the old boilers
are even more "himsy" than the defence of the
okeTs who were punished fortnight ago for
being afraid TO work near them, of course he
magistrates VIII apologize to these men for the
sn2ht mistake that has occurred, and some
compensation Will be equitably due to them for
the penalties they have suffered on account of
thelr not unnatural anxiety to preserve their
lives

Tbe Comet ,bat D,du,t CoD,e.

The dreaded 18th of August, the day on
which, according to the prediction of the
distinguished Swiss Astronomer, Planta-
mour, huge comet was TO come and put
an unceremonious and untimely end to all
things earthly, has come and gone, but the
destructive comet came not with the day,
nor does any further intelligence reach us
in regard to its movements. 1t is well
enough for the safety and welfare of our
selves and other parties resident on this
planet that Plantsmoqr has on this occasion
turned out to be a false prophet, for accord
ing to bis prediction the force of the col
lision was to be so great as TO knock this
beautiful little globe Of ours all to pieces or
hurl it directly into the sur, where it would
soon be dissipated in the form Of vapor,
generating such intense heat as would
probably fuse the inferior planets, and per
haps, also the superior organizations of
matter. But the fearful prediction was
sufficient, however, to occasion considerable
uneasiness in Europe and America, and
perhaps at other points from which no di-
rect intelligence is yet received; for it was
stated with great deal of circumstance and
detail that Plantamour and a brother as
tronomer had closely observed the coming
comet, calculated its course, and thoroughly
assured themselves that they could not be
mistaken as to the time OF its collision with
this sphere of ours. The two astrono-
mers stated distinctly that this par
ticular comet, unlike similar in
situations that have visited the
solar system or are part of it, was thicker
than thin air, thus increasing the chances
of earthly things being shattered to pieces.
1t was represented as comet composed of
iron and the vapor of iron, together with
sodium, lithium, and other constituents of
heavenly bodies, and moving with the velo-
city of nineteen miles to the second. In
connection with his prediction, Plantamog
circumspectly went on TO say; aft will be-
come more and more distinctly visible, and
gradually its nucleus will sppesr, the nebula
around the nucleus will become less regular,
and the tail will be seen divided into three
parts. Thenceforward until collision takes
place it will increase in apparent size and
splendor, until its light shall ill the entire
heavens, rendering the stars, the moon, and
even the sun invisible" None of this ce-
lestial phenomena has yet been observed by
star gazers in this vicinage, nor do we any
longer anticipate with fear and trembling
the occurrence of the startling events pre-
dictpd

Old Houses.

The buildings on the Public Square occu-
pied respectively by OlE III Brothers and D.
Loveman & Co., which were so much DAM
aged by the recent fire, are 10 be remodeled
and moderDized considerably, and when re-
built will be altogether different from what
they were before. The fronts will be of
pressed brick, the first story ornamented
with stone columns and plate glass OPEN
ings. 1t may not be generally known, but
it is fact that these buildings were erigir
nally put up in 1919, fifty-three years age,
and the one adjoining was erected in 1872.
There have been some wonderful changes
in Nashville since, over half a century since,
these buildings were chronicled as the finest
in the city. And yet, cid as they were in
the public service, they held their own ex-
tremely well. Possibly they might have
stood for fifty years more, and been in a
remarkable state of preservation at the end
of that time, had they escaped the fury of
the flames few mornings since. It some
times occasions gloomy reflections to Wit
ness disasters which remove suddenly these
old landmarks that bear some
connecting link between the present
and the early history of our city, but fires
such as have occurred and will continue TO
occur, are of great benefit, when the own
ers incur no particular losses, because it
generally happens that the same ground is
covered with something more attractive,
adding that much more to the beauty of
the city. Experience does not teach that
the buildings Of the present day are more
substantial than those of the long ago, for
as general thing, the old houses bear the
mark of having been constructed with
more care. For instance, the walls of the
buildings now being demolished, are about
double the thickness as those of the present
day, and in the work of reconstruction, the
owners will probably be able to add another
story in height, and still have brick enough
left to improve elsewhere.

THE COURTS.

JUSTICE CAssErTY's William
Beard, colored, was arraigned before Jus
tice Cassetty yesterday morning, charged
by ]. l.. Hirch with stealing pair of shoes
valued at s.. On paying for the shoes aud
court costs he was discharged.
In the afternoon, large, muscular, rag
ged, bareheaded, barefooted African, OF
about % summers, was brought up on
charge OF an attempt to murder his step
father. His name is Thomas Cappes, and
the witnesses claimed that he would not
work, but swore vengeance upon his filial
protector unless he furnished him with
food and shelter. Wednesday night some
dispute arose, during the progress of which
he seized an AK and "went for" the pater-
fdmiIi1S, Luckily he did not succeed in
hitting him but once, and then it was with
the back of the ak. He is ola very vicious
disposition, and undertook to escape from
the court room during the progress of the
examination. On being asked where he
wanted to 60, he said that he wanted to 60
home. The Justice, approaching bis prone
ness to be away from he gaze of the vulgar
public, had him escorted to the county Jail,
in default of 81, 900 bail.
John Thompson charged Henry Harding
with assaulting him with intent to kill, but
as the evidence was weak he was discharged
