MANY ladies admire gray hair-on some
other person-but few care to try its effects
on their own charms; nor need they, since
Ayers Hair Vigor restores gray hair to its
original color; it cleanses the scalp, prevents
dandruff and stimulates the growth of the
hair as in youth

JeT. Davis Reception

MONTGOMERY, Ala, April 27.-Jeffer
son Davis left his home at Beauvoir,
Miss, accompanied by mis- youngest
daughter at IL O'Clock this morning.
They werein a special car in charge Of
citizens of Montgomery, who went to
escort them The arrival at every
station was the signal for a demonstra-
ton. At the stopping places between
this city and Mobile, great crowds
gathered, local military companies fired
salutes, children waved handkerchiefs
and shouted and all pressed to the car
to shake the hand of a man who led the
cause of the south during the war times.
Many one-legged and one3armed sol;
diers were waiting to see him and all
had shouts of welcome. Mr.. Davis
stood or sat in the rear OF the car, he
was too feeble to speak but gave q
hearty hand shake TO all. The train
reached here ats o'clock tonight. The
scene has never been equalled since the
reception in 1861.

WAsHISeToS. April 27.-The report of
the committee of the Ohio Legislature
regarding the investigation into SEN
ator Payne's election has been sub
mitted to the Senate and Payne has
made his speech charging the majority
of the committee with unfairness in re
fusing to notify him of the testimony
prejudicial to him and emitting to call
on him for his private papers, he hay-
ing in advance notified the chairman of
the committee he would be prepared TO
meet every charge made against him.
He entered most emphatic denial of
the charges and invited a most ex-
haustive scrutiny into all his acts and
of his private correspondence. The
whole thing, he said, was an attempt to
circulate baseless gossip and scandal.
Everything substantial in the way OF
the charges having been discredited and
disproved by testimony. He was willing
to leave the matter with the committee
on privilege and elections of the Senate,
to which committee it was referred.

SPRINGFIELD. No. April 27.-George
Graham, the wife murderer, was hanged
by a mob ar2 80 O'Clock this morning
He made no entreaties for mercy, but
went to his death stoically and died ap-
parently without a struggle. The
lynchers numbered about 200 armed
aud masked men. They surrounded
the county jail at l.30 am and demanded
the surrender OF the prisoner. The
sheriff refused to comply. but the mob
overpowered him and battered down
the prison doors and secured their vic
tim. At O'Clock they moved down
Bouliyille street with Graham in their
midst. The people who saw the weird
procession fancied that the lynchers
would take Graham to Alalloy farm
and there hang him and throw his
body into the well where his murdered
wifeis decaying corpse was found, but
the leaders of the avengers had other
plans. They started in the direction of
the Malloy place as a ruse for their
course; they gave their followers the
slip and vile vet in the city limits
hanged Graham to a tree Just one hour
after the attack had he n made.
The moo then quietly dispersed in all
directions, and on Graham's danglin,
body an obituary notice, written In
characteristic western style. was pinned.

done and q warning to ex-convicts and

The coroner held on inquest over the
body this morning. The jury returned
a verdict to the effect that the deceased
came TO his death by strangulation at
the hands of persons unknown. Cora
Lee, Graham's alleged accomplish had
been informed that an attempt to
lynch him would be made, but she
failed to notify the sheriff or to make
any attempt TO save her lovers life.

Preparing for n Riot

NEW YoRK. April 27.-It seems the
local authorities have not been so idle
during the last week or ten days in ar
ranging to cope with a riot as many
people have supposed Preparations
have been ma e at most Of the armories
for sudden call out, and there has been
a great deal Of activity behind the walls
of the State arsenal at Seventh Avenue
and Thirty-tifth Street. The 47th Regi-
ment of Brooklyn was under arms
the night OF the riot in
Green Point, and on the day
after. 1t has leaked out that a squad
of Earle's Battery, whose headquarters
have been in the armory of the Twelfth
regiment ut Broadway and Forty-sixth
Streets was put on duty night and day
so long as Wednesday and Thursday of
last week. Calling guns was trans
ferred a night or two ago under a strong
guard of police to the arsenal and q
battery has since had its rendezvous
there. There Is an effort on the part of
the authorities to keep the whole matter
quiet. The officer in charge of the ar
senal says that he is not allowed to give
out any information.
