To rebuild the dam and re-establish
the lake on the site of the one that caus-
ed such desolation in the Conemangh
valley, purely as pleasure resort would
be like holding a banquet in a charnel
house. Yet the owners of the ground
propose doing so in order not to lose the
100000 they claim to have invested IN
contiguous lands that otherwise are val
ueless. 1t is only a sentiment we sup
pose, but the mere suggestion produces
a revulsion to the average sensitive ma
ture

The latest prodigy to startle the must

ances on the piano is a hirsute, ring
tailed monkey, who executes the most
difficult pieces, with an easy grace and
style that would put Rubinstein to the

complication this quadrumanous genius
fingers the keyboard with all four
hands, turning the leaves of his music
in the dantiest manner imaginable with
the extreme end of his prehensile tail.

In the Maybrick case it is not the fate
of Mrs May brick in itself that has caus-
ed the excitement in England. That is
almost foregone conclusion. English
class opinion is against the woman. She
has only the sympathy of the masses.
The doubt in her case has impressed

The Sedgwick county Republicans had
p fuss about a resubmission resolution. a
vote was taken but from the report of the
proceedings it would be impossible to tell
which side won. If resubmission is the
meaning of the Murdoch rebellion we Will
have none of it.-Salina Republican.
The incident first alluded to in the
foregoing was merely an incident, for
which the latter was in no way response
bic. Still, there is no way of preventing
either the pros or cons to the proposition
alluded to from making common cause
with the multitude who are moved to
revolt against more serious and grievous
conditions that affect the body polite.

One of our state exchanges assumes to
speak for the state and declares that as
between western points that are COM
peting for the worlds fair, Kansas unan-
imously supports the city of Chicago.
The said exchange probably takes the
cue from the Kansas City Times, which
paper also assumes to speak for the state
of Kansas in everything; bat both are
egregiously in error. As between Chi
cago and st. Louis. the only cities whose
aspirations i'll the matter named are
worth considering, Kansas-at least the
biggest half of it's decidedly and en-
phatically favors the latter.

City, Senator Ingalls, is credited with
saying, 1.-The Republican party every
where is in good shape" The assurance,
if it were founded upon undisputed and
indisputable fact, would be gratifying
and assuring to the best interests of the
country. But, alas. if the senator's esti-
mate as to the balance of the country
has no more foundation of fact than 1t
has in this state, the party'S condition
may be likened to the optics of person
afflicted with strabismus. It's true It's

The best way to avoid scalp troubles,
hair falling out and premature bald
ness is TO use nothing but clear water
Oh the head. When you go to a bar
Der do not let him put bears grease,
vaseline or similar substances on your
hair. These are more likely to cause
trouble than to do good. In cases
where dandruff, scald head or any
scalp disease appears, soap of good
quality should be used in the water
with which the head is cleaned. Cold
water, followed by gentle rubbing, is
exhilarating to the scalp and is usual
ly all the stimulant that the hair
needs. Dandruff is an emulation
from the pores of the scalp that
spreads and dries, forming a scale or
scurf.- 1t is caused in nearly all cases
by a bad condition of the blood. A
person affected with scrofula almost
always has dandruff. A frequent use
of a fine tooth comb is likely to irri-
tate the scalp, and cause dandruR to
appear. In cases of this Kind, after
washing the head, apply a little vase
line to soften the skin. If the hair is
falling out, and a stimulant is wanted,
rub the scalp with brandy with a lit
lie salt in it.
DdluHeSS Is uue 10 several causes
heredity is one of them. Members
of some families get bald early, while
in others the hair remains until old
age. Scrofula is a frequent cause of
badness, and illness, particularly few
ers, causes badness. Excessive brain
work is responsible for many bald
heads, and wearing hats constantly
cannot be too often condemned.
Whenever l get into a railway car 1
take off my hat. l don't put on a
tight fitting skull cap either. The hair
needs air, and the head to be kept cool.
The reason that there are more bald
men than women is due to the
fact that women wear hats that admit
the air to the top of the head, while
mems hats exclude the air. Badness
among men is undoubtedly increas-
ing, and is due TO the fact that men do
more head work and take less rest and
relaxation now than formerly.-E. B.

EyppaSS

A NJ Multitude OF Ailments,

The ailments which afhict the kidneys

to name them would fill a space far out
running the limits of this article. Suffice
it to say, that they are both obstinate and
dangerous. To their prevention Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters is well adapted.
The stimulus which it lends to the action
of the kidneys when they are lethargic,
serve to counterfeit a tendency in them To
lapse, first. into a state OF pernicious in
activity, and afterward into one Of posi-
tive organic disease, which soon destroys
their delicate integumcnts, poisons the
blood and causes death. A double pur-
pose is served by this depurent. 1t pro-
notes actiqity of the kidneys and expels
impurities from the blood which have no
natural channel of outlet except these
organs. Constipation. biliousness, fever

YOUNGSTOWN, Pa, June ga sweep
ing fire broke out in the first ward at
1890 this afternoon. The flames spread
rapidly. In half an hour twenty houses
were burning. All engines in the place
were called out. The most intense ex-
element prevails. Nearly all the houses
burning were more or less destroyed by
the food. The wind is high and the fire
is spreading rapidly toward Kernville.
The fire in the first ward consumed all
but three of the buildings in the district
bounded by Market and Walnut streets
and by Main street and the river. Twenty
five houses were totally destroyed. Many
of the buildings destroyed had been wash
ed away from their foundations, though
many Of them contained household goods
which had been saved from the flood.
But a small amount OF these goods were
saved. The fire is supposed to have
originated from sparks flying from the
burning debris in the neighborhood.
Notwithstanding the force of men em-
ployed in the ruins here was reduced
nearly one-half to-day, a remarkable
showing was made in the way of clearing
up the wreckage. One heavy blast fol-
lowed another in the debris above the
railroad bridge, and the place will prob
ably be cleared up by Thursday.
About 3 o'clock a charge of dynamite
exploded near second arch from each end
Of the bridge. From the great body of
wreckage tossed up and the
afterward gathered together at least six
corpses were blown up. Much OF the
drift which had been dislodged from the
tone bridge, has lodged in various places
r
A force of men began to move these OBJ
structions which have rendered useless the
greater part of the work at the bridge.

New Facts Regarding Cooney.

CHICAGO, June pa very important
clew as to Cooney's recent movements
came to light yesterday. 1t appears that
he has been for a year or more a share
holder in the Queen CRY Building and
Loan Association, which meets over the
corner OF Huron and Wells streets. Coon
ey has ten shares in the Association and
in due course Of time would have become
possessor of 81 900, had it not been for
the fatal occurrence which necessitated
his sudden disappearance from the city.
As soon as Cooney became Convinced
that he must fly he sought a purchaser
for his Building and Loan Association
shares. and finally succeeded in disposing
of them to a Mrs. Myer, a lady residing
on the North Side. The transfer was eft
fected Tuesday evening, at the recidence
Of the Secretary of the Association, Jas.
Conlan, Jr., No. 1925 Wrightwood
avenue.
On the Monday preceding this trans
fer Cooney was seen to enter and leave
the Chicago opera house building, in
which Alexander Sullivan's office is loca-
ted, by Sc !eral persons who do not care TO
have their names mentioned, but who are
ready, If need be, to come forward and
testify to the fact.
The police are very reticent about
Cooney's movements. and though there
can be no doubt but that they are in pos
session Of these facts they refuse to either
confirm or deny their authenticity.
