The Maine Man in Doubt to Whether He
Could Be Elected.
Washington Special to New York World
Colonel Dudley, ex- Commissioner of Pensions,
who has just returned from Pennsylvania,
where he was with Mr. Blaine for two or three
days, has been interviewed by tho Worlds cor.
respondent When asked if he thought Mr..
Blaine would be candidate for denomination he
said:
II have no such relations with Mr. Blaine

candidate, if he had made up his mind on the
subject am certain Mr.. Blaine does not want
to go through another fruitless campaign Out

Governor Hill as one of the most astute poll

the Republicans would have to be governed in
their choice by that fact"
Colonel Dudley then went on to saw there
were q number of Western candidates coming

Blaine it would probably GO West, and in that
event would naturally go to somebody agreeable
to Mr.. Blaine. Mr. Allison he regarded as very
prominent this account. If Indiana should
go Republican this fall bv any chance, that fact
would bring General Harrison to the front

Gray Hair.

Many persons begin to show gray
hairs while they are yet In their
twenties. and some while they are
yet in their teens. This does not nv
any means argue a premature decay
0f the constitution. 1t is a purely
local phenomenon, and may co.exist
with unusual bodily vigor. The cele-
hrated author and traveller, George
Borrow, turned quite gray before he
was thiry. but was an extraordinary
swimmer and athlete at sixty five.
Many feeble persons and others
who haye suffered extremely both
mentally and physically, do not
hlanrh a hair until past middle Ii e.;
while Others. without assignable

America he never saw Il bald Indian.

The negroes turn more slowly than
the whites. Yet we know a negress

old, who is quite gray. In this coun.

ence. Men and woman grow gray
about the same period of life. In men
the hair and beard rarely change
equally. The one is usually darker
than the other for several years, but
there seems no general rule as to
which whitens first. The spot where
grayness begins differs with the indi-
vidnal. The philosopher Schopen-
hauer began to turn gray ON the
temples. and complacently framed a
theory that this is an indication of
vigorous mental activity.
