RfApiNo The HAIR.
Bore n What the Physiosnon,ists HAVE 10
Say About 1t.

Pbysiognomists read the hair as follows:
Smooth, softly waving, fine hair indi-
Gates gentleness, quictness, neatness. We
can each recall the woman with the wavy
hair parted In the middle, the gentle
keeper.
Curly hair denotes vivacity, a yielding
nature, immense love Of appreciation, and
frequently 1t Is the possession Of men and
woman OF great literary and musical gifts.
Close thick, rather coarse, straight
black hair Is said to be found on persons
with moro order and industry than mental
ability.
Flat and sleek looking hair Is held to
indicate mental weakness. Alas for the
men of fashion!
Straight, fair hair, according to the type
Of the head 1t is found upon, Is accepted,
II upon an intellectual head, as indicating
a gentle, amiable and refined disposition.
The same hair upon an Ill formed, stupid
head indicates dull, phlegmatio tempera.

fair haired English woman and the flaxen
haired, stupid German or Swedish peasant
A marked difference In color between

worthiness.
Red hair of the real brick red Is held to
mean cruelty and pertidy; on the other
hand, the brownish red hair, particularly
II curly, accompanies gentle, loving and
very trusting disposition.
That the condition of the hair Is affected
by the emotions has long been conceded In.
sane people give evidences of acute mania
by the rough and bristling condition of the
hair. Where the hair Of lunatio Is con-
tinuously rough and bristling to an OK.
IRENE 1t Is said he rarely RECEIVERS; on the
other hand, when the hair of patient
grows soft and smooth, it is regarded as a
sure indication of mental improvement.
An abundance of strong, crisp, black or
brown hair Is accepted as denoting strong
vitality and passion; If light, fine and
abundant, self control.
That the character of the face may be
changed by wigs of various styles Is IN
derstood by professionals. Refinement will
always call for silky, fine hair; beauty and
LONELINESS for waviness or curls; stupidity
for shock of coarse rough brown OF
black, and savage ferocity for straight,
wiry, black head covering; hence the elias
sitication of stage wigs as legal, virtuous,
peasant, lover, villain, doctor, etc.-Chi-

misery by the suicide route. According
ly yesterday afternoon he hied himself
to the Terminal depot. lay down on a
bench and took about two teaspoons
full of chloroform liniment from bot
tie. Then he composed himself for
death. He was rudely jerked up and
hustled off to the receiving hospital,
where it was not found necessary to do
much to prolong his life. as the dose he
had taken was not large enough to do
any great harm. Jailer Richardson had
large foot-pump for initiating bicycle
tires lying in the room and told a trusty
to put 1t away When Leach saw the
man take it up he rose in his wrath and
declared that no such instrument as that
should be used upon him, and was only
quieted by repeated assurances that it

striking features in the parade, which
will be brought up with a troop of flower
boys. who will distribute bouquets of

form at the Wilcox block at o'clock and
march on Spring, Main and Broadway.
All this will be but a forerunner of
what is to be given at Redondo on the
nations natal day. The Citizens At

busily engaged for weeks in preparing

Mcdonald held note of Miller & Du-
cazan, secured by mortgage on tract
of land. At the request of the trust
company Mcdonald foreclosed the mort
gage, purchased the land at foreclosure

the same. Thereafter he held title as
security for his debt from the trust com
pany. but otherwise as trustee for the
trust company. The company thereaf-
ter made sales of parcels'of the land to
E. N. Buck, c. A. Buck, Boggs& Blades.
AT the company's request Mcdonald
made the deeds in pursuance of these
sales, and for the purchase money he
took from each of the purchasers a SER

himself or order, secured by mortgages
on the parcels of land sold. These notes

The examination Of George Davis on a
charge Of robbery was held before JUS
tice Morrison and the accused was hel1
for trial In the superior court under $500
bonds in short order. Davis is the man,
who, after being given drink and food
by railroad man named Martin, on the
morning of the S0th Of June throttled his
benefactor in the rear of q saloon and
robbed him Of his watch and chain. The
testimony was conclusive and the whole
anair did not occupy over an hour
coal black negro named Henry Jack
son appeared in the dock for trial on
petty larceny charge. Owing to a press
OF other matters Justice Morrison was
unable to take 1t up at the time and so
informed Jackson, at the same time ask
ing what time would best suit him in the
future. jackson created an uproar in
the court room by replying that he didn't
care so long as he got out by the Fourth
Several minutes were required to restore
order, and then, much to his sorrow
jackson was told that the matter would
be set for Monday and meanwhile, de-
spite his patriotic inclinations, he would
have to stay In jail.
Capt. G. r. Frair was to have had ex-
animation on a charge of assaulting
Grant Brong with a deadly weapon,
knocking out four teeth and badly dis
figuring his face otherwise. On motion
of the district attorney this complaint
was dismissed and another charging him
with battery filed. He was arraigneyl,
pleaded not guilty and trial was set for
Monday. the 9Th, as Brong. the prose-
cutting witness was too i'll to appear In

A complaint was drawn in the district
attorneys office Yesterday by Judge Nc.
Comas and upon it warrant was issued
for the arrest of l.. ]. Laird. This young
fellow has proved too handy with the
pen, and in all probability will have to
pay the penalty of his indiscretion in
having passed a fictitious check upon
the grocery house of Cline Bros, on
Spring street.
On April Goth Laird gave check for
s26, drawn upon the California bank and
signed A. B. Clark, with the endorse

developed that the check was fictitious

Among Some Of the Falrest Scenes

On this continent and in the tropics, ma
laria poisons the atmosphere with its pes
tilential breath, sowing the seeds of disease
and death in every direction. 1t Is in such
localities that the preventive and remedial
qualities of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
are most conspicuously shown. For every
form OF malaria it is a signally efficacious
remedy, and conquers disorders of the
stomach, liver and bowels. remedies mac
tivity of the kidneys. and counteracts
the weakness and lack of stamina which in
vites disease by leveling the barrier which
a vigorous operation of the digestive and
secretive organs opposes to it. No defen-
sive medicine in use has stronger common
dations in professional quarters both for
purity and remedial qualities.
