He Fears Protection.

BIRMINGHAM, Nov. 25.-The con-
ference Of the national union con-
servative associations resumed its
session this morning, Resolutions
were adopted in1orsing the princi-
pie of assisting local authorities in
Great Britain to acquire land for
the purpose of facilitating the crea-
ton of small rural holdings, which
are of great advantage to the coun-
try by checking the present drain
upon rural districts; favoring the
extension of commerce on a prefer
entail basis throughout all parts of
the British empire and that pro
visions and treaties imposing linn
itations upon the full development
of trade between the United King
dom and other parts of the British
empire should be abrogated, and
favoring therepeal Of clauses IN the
ballot act permitting llllterate
votes.
The unionists gave a luncheon IN
honor of Lord Salisbury today. In
a speech referring to the tariff ques-
ton he said on all sides there APP
peared constantly increasing pro
tective duties calculated to stitie
British trade. Protection, the
heresv on which the tariffs founded,
grew like other evils upon what
It fed. Watching English statistics
he could not but feel anxiety lest
the efforts of foreign protectionists
should be partially successful. The
error of foreign statesman might
be transplanted to Great Britain
Undoubtedly British trade is being
hindered for the moment by foreign
legislation.
Continuing, he said the govern
onnt will seize with avidity any
measure promising legitimately to
increase employment for laborers
either in town or in rural districts

square in the mouth. A tooth was
uprooted, but the fiery delegate from
Spokane went on with his Grafton

says: 81 went to Lincoln Univer-

worked at barbering, did a little
law business among my people,
railroaded and took an interest in
politics. Last fall, as a joke, some
people wanted me to run for the
Legislature. l did SO, on the
Democratic ticket, and was elected
by a healthy majority. l am the
only colored man ever elected to

The difference between straight and
curly hair is very apparent ON a micro
scopical examination. 4 hair is a hol-
low tube, and a straight hair is as sound
as a reed, while a curly hair is ALWAYS
hattened on both sides and cnrls toward
one of the fiat sides, and never toward
the edge. 1t is a curious and little
known fact that the hair of women is
coarser than that of men as well as
thicker on the scalp. In an average
head of hair there are about $50, 900 in
dlvidual hairs. The hair seems to have
a life of its own, independent of that of
the man, for numerous instances are
known of the hair continuing to grow
after death. In one of the st. Louis
cemeteries a body of a lady was some
years ago disinterred for the purpose of
removing it elsewhere. When the coffin
was opened the entire cavity was filed
with a mass of auburn hair which had
grown after the interment had taken
