TURNS HAIR BLACK.
Even White Hair Altered by the Use OF
Jahorandl.


Jahorandl.
DR.. Prentiss has related to the Lon
don Times remarkable occurrence fol-
lowing the use of jaborandi. The pa
tent was a woman aged 70, who had
snow-white hair for twenty years. For
the symptoms Of commencing uremi,
due to contracted kidney, 90 or 80
minfms of extract of jaborandi was pre-
scribed several times daily.
The drug was taken from October,
1886, to February, 1883. During the
autumn Of 1887 the eyebrows were be-
coming darker, and the hair Of the head
became also darker in patches. This
continued until the patches of hair were
quite dark, contrasting with the natural
patches of snow-white hair. The hair
did not universally change before her
death.
In 1881 DR.. Prentiss had published
another case of kidney disease-pyclo-
no-phritis - treated with pilo -carpine.
The hair Of the patient, lady aged
twenty-five, changed from light blonde
to black under the influence of the drug.
The pilo-carpine was administered
hypodermically (one-sixth of q grain(
twenty-five times in the course of two
months; the dose was then increased.
In one month after commencing the
treatment the hair changed from light
blonde to a chestnut brown; four months
later it was ''almost pure black" 1t is
! satisfactory to find that eight years
afterward the hair is again dark
brown.
DR.. Prentiss ascribes tho phenomenon
to the jaborandi and it's active principle,
pilo-carpine. Cases where, as the result
Of tho influence of the nervous system,
in pain or fright, the hair has changed
color, are pathological curiosities. So
little is known, however, of tho physfo-
logical influence OF the nervous system
over tho growth and nutrition Of hair,
that it is at present quito impossible to
| understand how drug administered In
terna1ly can alter the color of the hair.
1t would be interesting to learn from
other practitioners who have used jabo-
! randi or pilo-carpine for an extended
! period whether any change in the color
+ of hair has been noticed.

County Official Paper
To Nevada Farmers.

The Reno Gazette makes the fol-
lowing pointed suggestions to Nevada
farmers:
"There are two firms in Reno that
use about fifty tons Of Eastern hams
and bacon per annum, and when we
take into consideration what is con-
sumed in Carson, Virginia, Gold Hill,
Dayton and other places throughout
the State, the money that is spent for
Eastern meats amounts to 800, 900 or
more yearly. Why cannot this money
be kept at home? Is there any reason
why the farmers of Nevada cannot
raise their own meats and supply the
State? There is money enough spent
for foreign meats, butter, eggs, cheese
and fowls to support quite respect
able colony if stops were taken to
rcise those necessary articles of food
within ourselves. Let the farmers
think over the proposition and see if
they cannot make moro money by
producing what we require than by
sending abroad for it,"

Fast Railway Time.

The best time ever recorded in tho
history of railroading was made in
late run over the Atchisou, Topeka &
Santa Fe system between Bakersfield
and Lathrop, a distance Of 100 miles,
the distance being accomplished in
205 minutes. This is the greatest
speed ever made in continuous run
for such distance with one engine.
The engine was of Stevens type and
built in 1885. Her drivers were feet
~ inches and she burned 81 tons of
coal during the run. The greatest
speed attained was one mile in 40
seconds, tho fastest on record by 81
seconds. The best time made for a
stretch was 1O1a miles in 3 minutes,
or little more than 45.7 seconds per
mile. The train was made up Of two
official coaches, and ran as a special,
passing nine trains on the run, indi-
eating some nice work by the dis
patchers.

The March of Progress.

Fraunce's Tavern, the old build
 ing in Broad street which is about
 the last genuine Washington's
 headquarters left in New York, is
 being extensively altered. The first
 floor is elevated several feet above
 the pavement, and the walls have been knocked out at the corner pre- liminary to lowering the floor and doing away with the necessity for steps up into the saloon that at present occupies the premises. There was considerable doubt as to the stability of the ancient walls, and elaborate preparations were made for keeping them from tum- bling down while the changes were being made. When the workmen came to tear away the brick, how ever, they found them solid as rock, and they had to be knocked off in bits. Builders who have examined them say that there is not a solid CT building in New York to-day than this one, which was put up by Dutch bricklayers a couple of hun dred years or so ago. Relic hunt CTS have eagerly carried off frag- ments of the old building which the masons have knocked out of the walls. The bricks are the thin, old fashioned sort, yellowish in color, which were imported from Hol- York Sun.

Brave and Loyal Words,

The confederate reunion at Chat tanooga, Tennessee, a few days since, was remarkable for its tenn perate expression and loyal spirit. One of the speakers said:
 "We of the south fought for the Constitution of cur fathers as in- terpreted by the Supreme Court. The South was a loyal country. But we were wrong on the slavery question, and the North was right when it fought us on that score. There is not son or daughter of the South to-day who would have slavery restored. While for four year we were deadly enemies, we are forevermore brother and fellow citizens, and proud in the South of the glory of these American States, and we would fight as Loyalty for the flag Ol our country as any man who fought with Grant and Sher- man. When brave men whip and are whipped, they shake hands, quit all foolishness, and join in build ing up the prosperity of the com mon country. We have but one flag, one sky, one Union, one gov and it should be our ef- fort to make this country glorious.

The wounded man was taken to the house of friend near by, where he died the next night. GabaIdon was a sheep herder about 21 years of age, and was quiet, inofensive young man. Casados was at one time constable of that precinct and when drinking was recognized as a dangerous fel- low -AlbuquerQue Citizen.

Good Law.

Speaking of Judge Kibbey's re-
 cent decision dismissing the Chi nese habeas corpus case, the Tue son Citizens says "One of the Chi namen as a test case, was taken be-
 fore Judge H. Kibbey at Phoenix, where the question was as to the right of a Chinaman, acknowledged to be within the United States un- lawfully to the privileges of the
 writ of habeas corpus; that writ under the constitution of the Uni- ted States being guaranteed only to persons lawfully within the jur- isdiction of the courts of the Uni ted States. Although this was grave constitutional question, and was for the first time raised in these cases, yet Judge Kibbey promptly vacated the writ of habeas  corpus, on the ground that alien Chinamen unlawfully within the United States were not entitled to its rights. This seems to be sound law, and if sustained by the higher courts, as it doubtless will be, 1t will put an end to Chinamen, un- lawfully Eithin the United States, their stay, by taking ad- vantage of the writ of habeas cor pus. It seems to be logical that an alien should not be allowed to take of one law to violate an- other law of the United States.

Tie Swedish Cure for DrunkeneSS.

The habitual drunkard in Nor way or Sweden renders himself lia- ble to imprisonment for his love of strong drink, and during his incar- ceration he is required to submit to a plan of treatment for the cure of his failing which is said to produce marvellous results. The plan con sists in making the delinquent sub- sist entirely on bread and wine. The bread is steeped in a bowl of wine for an hour or more before the meal Is served. The first day the habitual toper takes his food in this shape without repugnance; the sec- ond day he finds it less agreeable to his palate; finally he positively loathes the sight of 1t, Experience shows that a period of from eight to ten days of this regimen is gen. erally more than sufficent to make a man evince the greatest aversion to anything in the shape of wine. Many men, after their incarceration, becowe total abstainers.-Scientifc American.
