Whatever may be said Of Col. Inger.

count upon his POLITICAL opinions. He
has few peers in America IS a polit-
ical seer and is not surpassed by
any when it comes to giving ex-
preston to his views on national
questions. Col. Ingersoll was inter-
viewed by a Now York Press reporter
last week, and sums up the political sit
utation in terms which bear the impress
of deep and sincere thoughtfulness. He
says the great question before the
American people is the tariff.
n. Cleveland imagins that the surplus can b got.

by one or two methods; first make the tariff prohibit
tory; second, have no tariff. But II the tariff sjust at
that point whers the foreign goods could pay 1t and
then the surplus would increase. As . rule We can
depend upon American compstition to keep prices at

those factories. I believe in tho protection Of every

The State Senate passed a bill
last week extending the term of Of
flee of Mayor Latrobe of Baltimore,
two years beyond the time for which
he was elected BY the , e5ss0cpis IN &c
tobeF lost ss Much surprise and as
constituent was expressed at the
action of the Senate In permitting
such an important measure to slip
through that body without examina-
ton or discussion. And now Senator
Randall offers a message to the
House asking a return of the bill
that it may have more careful
consideration, giving as a reason
that he did not know there was
such a provision in the bill. Several
Senators assigned the same reason.
In times of peril the people used to
be advised to s'look-to the Senate,
but if such carelesness does not
ssprove the exception to the rule,
the people must look to a higher
power and pray to be saved from
political tricksters.
There is not a more Conscientious
pains-taking member of the Senate
than Mr.. Randall, and it is most
singular that he should be entrapped
into acquiescing in a measure that
he is convinced is unwarranted By
the constitution.

Luxuriant Hair

Can only be preserved by keeping the
scalp clean, cool. and free from dam
druff, and the body in q healthfnl
condition. The great popularity o.
Ayers Hair Vigor is due TO the fact
that it cleanses the scalp, promotes the
growth of the hair, prevents it from
falling out, and gives it that soft and
silky gloss so essential to perfect beauty.
Frederick Hardy, Of Roxbury, Mass,
gentleman fifty years Of age, was fast
losing his hair. and what remained was
growing gray. After trying various
dressings with no effect, he commenced
the use OF Ayers Hair Vigor. 1T

OEE Stepniak, a Nihilist who has

ONE Stepniak, Nihilist who has
taken up his residence in London,
sends to senator Hawley . protest
against the ratification by the SEN
ate Of the proposed extradition trea-
ty between the United States and
Russia. He asserts that the enforce.
ment of the treaty will conslgn to
torture many Russian Nihilists who
have taken refuge in this country,
and he thinks for that reason, that
the treaty should be rejected. The
fact that Stepniak presents this pro-
test is an argument in favor OF the
treaty, for it shows that people are
coming to this country who are not
wanted and who should be surren-
dered for punishment under the
laws which they have violated. The
treaty does not contemplate the sur
render Of the citizens or subjects Of
either nation who have committed
no crime. The Russian who is in
i nocent of wrong-doing in his own
land will be protected in this coun-
try, and the United States could
not bring back from Russia one of
its citizens who has broken none Of
our laws. Nor are political offenses
made extraditable by the treaty.
The Nihilist may entertain what
ever political opinions he may be
pleased to hold, and so long as he
violates no law of Russia he can live
in America and defy the Gar.
The object of the treaty is to put
a stop to this thing of Czar-killers
and bomb-throwers taking refuge
and seeking protection of the Uni
ted States. This country has done
too much of that business of stan
ding between old world criminals
and their deserved punishment.
The Mosts, the Stepniak, the Spies
aud the nihilistic, socialistlc, COM
munistic gang generally have been
made to feel that they would be
safe if they could reach America;
that the people of this country en-
couraged the class of crimes in
which they INDUCED. The result
of extending this protection and Of
fering this semi-encouragement is
seen in the hundreds of the scoun,
drels who incite mobs, explode
bombs on the Chicago Haymarkets,
and threaten the lives of judges
and sheriffs who hang murderous
Anarchists. The United States do
not want these fellows. If Russia
does, we should be only too glad to
have the privilege of surrendering
them.

A spirited debate has been going
on in the House at Washington for
some time over contested seat in
that body. Captain White, arepub-
lican, aud Scotchman by birth, was
elected by an admitted majority OF
$500 over his opponent in the 18th
congressional district of Indiana;
but the contest was based on the
ground that Capt. White was not a
naturalized citizen. Doubts were
thrown upon his being naturalized,
but not sufficiently clear as to de-.
prive him Of his seat. a vote was
reached yesterday and notwlth-
standing it was attempted to make
it party test vote, enough honest
democrats were found to vote for
Capt. White-among whom. we are
glad to note, was our immediate
representative, Mr.. Compton.

Ten Years Younger.

Mrs. Mary Montgomery, of Boston,
writes: "For years, 1 was compelled
to wear a dress cap to conceal bald
spot on the crown OF my head but now
gladly lay the cap aside, for your Hair
Vigor is bringing out a new growth.
could hardly trust my senses when l
first found my hair growing but there
il is, and am delighted. look ten
years younger"
A similar result attended the use OF
Ayers Hair Vigor by Mrs. o. o. Pres
colt, of Charlestown, Mass, Miss Bessie
II. Bedloe, of Burlington, VT, Mrs. j. j.
Burton, of Bangor, Me-, and numerous
others.
The loss of hair may be owing to i'm
purity of the blood or arrangement OF
the stomach and liver, in which case,
a course of Ayers Sarsaparilla or of
Ayers Pills, in connection with the
Vigor, may be necessary to give health
and tone to all the functions OF the
body. AT the same time, it cannot be
too strongly urged that none of these
remedies can do much good without
a persevering trial and strict attention
to cleanly and temperate habits.

A Blind Mans Ingenuity.

"Will you please set my watch right and toll me what the time is now; it has run downa" ..-.=. :
 The speaker was blind and he handed handsome gold stem-winder to his friend. The friend put the watch right, told the time and then handed it back to his blind friend, saying, "Of what use is a watch to you? How can you tell the time?'
 "You have just set the watch at quarter to two," said the blind man, and now it is fully wound up. If wish to know what the time is this evening shall rcwiad the watch and count each of the clicks as I tura the key. There are forty-fve clicks, for example. Now I have found that nine clicks correspond 70 100 minutes, SO that if thero are forty five clicks it will mean that eight houts and twenty minutes havo elapsed since the time the watch was set, mak- ing the time five minutes past 10 o'clock. always remember what the time was when wound it up last, and so by a title care and calculation can always come very near what the time is."- New York Mail and Express.

A Man With a Silver Hand.

Daniel Goodwin of Weymouth, Mass has German silver hand, and, not withstanding the fact that there arc no fingers on it, he is able to keep pace at his trade---that of carpentering-with those blessed with the customary num- Der of digits. An injury to MT. Good wins own hand nccessitated its ampu- tation. It was not until he had invent ed a substitute, which he hoped woull enable him to support himself and family, that he would consent to have it amputated. His scheme consists of . socket, reaching half way to the elbow, into which socket the stump is placed, and at the other end of which hole is drilled with thread cut. The con- trivancc is great success. Mir. Good win has a surprisingly large number of useful tools that fit into this tapped hole, and he can drive nails all day with a hammer that is held in place by a check nut screwed against tho end of the socket. As soon as he sits down to dinner he pulls table knife out of ono of his pockets with bis left hand, screws it nto the socket, and proceeds to business. - Boston Herald

A Successful Crusade.

Every afternoon, between five and six, an under-sized man with nervous but decided air boards a Wabash avenue cable car at Washington street and rides south. Probably not one out of twenty five of his fellow passengers recognizes him as the hero of desperate fight against the City railway company. Chicago grows very fast, and the sensa- tion of yesterday is hardly the memory of to-day. This is D. B. Fisk. When the City railway company, about a dozen years ago, put "bobtail' car, Gears in which passengers drop their passes through slot into box), on its lines, Fisk, single-handed, began a cru sade against the bobtails, and ceased only when the cars were removed. How did he go about it2 He simply refused to pay his fare except to conductor. The drivers on the line came to know him and ceased jingling their bells for his fare. He used to enter car and offer to pay the fares of all the passen- gers-to a conductor. The result was many carload of people were hauled free. Fisk found few nervy followers; the newspapers took up the battle, the public joined in, and the result was the complete subjugation of the company and the rem oval of the obnoxious vc- hicles. Tho fight, it is sad, cost the company hundreds of thousands in lost fare and cars left oa their hands, which they were obliged to sell at prices away below. their cost. -[Chicago News.

The First RazOr.

The earliest reference to shaving is found in Genesis xii: IA, where we leao that Joseph, on being summoned before the king shaved himself. There are several directions as to shaving in Levitticus, and the practice is alluded to in many other parts of scripture. Egypt is the only country mentioned ia the Bible where shaving was practiced. In all other countries such an act would have been ignominious Herodotus men, tions that the Egyptians allowed their boards to grow when ln mo urning. So particular were they as to shaving at other times that to have neglected it was subject of reproach and ridicule, and whenever they intended to convey the idea of man of low condition and slovenly habits the artists represented hlm with a beard. Unlike the Romans of later age, the Egyptians did not confine the privilege of shaving to free citizens, but obliged their slaves to shave both beard and head. The priests also shaved tho head. Shaving the head became cus- tomary among the Romans about 360 B. c. According to Pliny, scipio Afri- canus was the first Roman who shaved daily. In France the custom of shaw ing arose when Louis XIII. came to the throne young and beardless. The Anglo Saxons wore their boards until, at the conquest, they were compelled to follow the example of the Normans, who shaved. From the time of Ed ward III. to Charles l. boards were universally worn. In Charles Ills reign the mustache and whiskers only were worn, and soon after this the prac- tice of shaving became general through out Europe. The revival of the custom of wearing the beard dates from the time of the Crimea, 1854-55.--- Penman's Journal.
