WASHINGTON. January Ex-senator
Call informs me that remarks from the
members Of the Committee on Appro-

acted upon by that committee and that
it will pass.
The Committee on Public Lands to-
day reported adversely the bill to forfeit
certain lands granted to aid in the con-
struction of railroads in Florida. The
bill and report were placed on the

Senator Call introduced bills as fol-
lows: Making an appropriation for the
improvement of Gibert's farm and one
creating customs and collection districts
at Tampa
A bill making an appropriation for the
completion of the public building at
Pensacola as originally designed; also
one making an appropriation for the
construction of a macadamized road to
the cemetery near Pensacola were pre-
sented by Senator Pasco.
Calls bill confirming the titles to Ger
tain lands in Columbia County was re-
ported favorably by the Judiciary Com
mittee. This bill confirms the title
derived from the State or from railroad
companies Of said State prior to 1885 to
land embraced in the Arredonda grant.

WAsHINGroS, January 3O.-Ths
Star tonight says a reporter to-day
showed Senator Ingalls, a printed copy
OF published letter with reference to
President Cleveland, said to have been
written by the Senator to a friend in
Kansas City in the latter part Of March,

Ingalls, replied: 1T was written in 1885,
within three weeks after the inaugura-
tion of President Cleveland. While
do not recall the letter or the name Of
the person to whom il was addressed, it
was apparently written to a personal
friend and seems to have been improp-

THE PUBLIC PRIsTER.
The Speaker pro tenn. laid before the
House a letter from the Public Printer,
IN response to TIE resolution calling
upon him for information as to dis
charges made by him. The Public Prin-
ter makes a statement in regard to those
discharges, justifying and explaining
them, defends the administration of his
Office. and emphatically denies the
charge that Congressional work Of the
Office is largely in arrears Tho letter
provoked heated political ~deuDL
which ended by Mr.. Cutcheon, Of Michi-
gan, offering a resolution for the ap-
pointment of special committee to in
vestigate the present administration of
the printing Office.
Mr.. Springer, of Illinois, offered as a
substitute a resolution instructing the
Committee on Printing, with the adj
dition of two members-one from each
side Of the House-to investigate the ad-
ministration of the printing Office during
the incumbency of the present Public
Printer and that of his predecessor.
Mr.. Reed, of Maine, suggested that
the investigation of man who is dead
could hardly help the members to get
their documents quicker. and he ap-
pealed to Springer not to make a par
Uisan thing out of the inquiry. Mr..
Springer denied that there was any
thing partisan IN his resolution. He
wanted to institute a comparison be-
tween the work Of the printing Office un-
der the present administration and un
der that of the former Public Printer.
The substitute offered by Mr.. Springer
was then agreed to.

sEsroS,s HAIR GROVER.

All who are BALD, all who are be-
coming BALD, all who do not want to
be BALD, all who are troubled with
DANDkUFF, or ITCHING of the scalp,
should use Benton's Hair Grower.
EIGHTY PER CENT. of those using it
have grown hair. It never fails TO
stop the hair from falling. Through
sickness and fevers the hair sometimes
falls OFF in q short time, and although
the person may have remained bald
for years, If you use BentOn's Hair
Grower according to directions, you
are sure OF growth of hair. In hun
dreds of cases we have produced a good
growth of hair on persons who have
been bald and glazed for years. We
have fully substantiated the following
facts.
We grow hair in every case no mat
ter how long bald.
Unlike other preparations 1T contains
no sugar of lead. or vegetable or min
eral poisons.
1t Is q specific for falling hair, dan
druff, and itching of the scalp.
The Hair Grow er is hair food, and
its composition is almost exactly like
the oil which supplies the hair with
its vitality.
If your druggists have not got it we
will send it prepaid on receipt of price.

Curious Freaks of Fine Steel.

The finest grades of razors are so
delicate that even the famous Damas-
Gus blades cannot equal them in tex
ture. 1t is not generally known that
the grain of Swedish razor is so sensi-
tive that its general direction is
changed after short service. When
you buy fine razor the grain runs
from the upper end of the outer point
in a diagonal direction toward the
handle. Constant stropping will twist
the steel until the grain appears to be
set straight up and down. Subsequent
use will drag the grain outward from
the edge, so that after steady use for
several months the fiber of the steel
occupies position exactly the reverse
of that which appeared on the day of
purchase. The process also affects the
temper of the blade, and when the
grain sets from the lower outer end
toward the back you have a tool which
cannot be kept in condition by the
most conscientious barber. But here's
another freak of nature: Leave tbs
razor alone for a month and when you
take. it up you will find the grain has
resumed its first position. This opera
ton can be repeated until the steel is
worn through to the back.-PdU Mall
