The values of the various veins have
been, of course, furnished by those
thoroughly able to give them. and. in
every instance, the figures were fur

The only question to be solved is that

They fully realize it has depressing
effect on the owners, who, in the face
of unusual difficulties in the way of

The veins are here and they carry
better average values than have been
found on the surface in any other dis

veins which can be traced for miles do
not go down is a reflection on the judg-

Do You Use It?


It's the best thing for the
hair under all circumstances.
Just as no man by taking
thought can add an inch to
his stature, so no preparation
can make hair. The utmost
that can be done is to pro-
mote conditions favorable to
growth. This is done by
Ayers Hair Vigor. 1t re-
moves dandruff. cIeanses the
scalp, nourishes the soil in
which the hair grows, and.
just as a desert will blossom
under rain, so bald beads grow
hair, when the roots are nour-
lshed. But the roots must be
there. If you wish your hair
to retain its normal color, or
Ii you wish to restore the lost
tint of gray or faded hair use

recently published opinion of the attorney
for the District that there was nothing In
the law to prevent the removal of the
Normal School from the Franklin building
to the Henry building or elsewhere.
Mrs. Stowel made motion that the Nor
NAL School be located in the Franklin
building. She didn't think the Henry
building suitable for the purpose, and ia
vored keeping the school where 1t Is, as
being In the best interests Of the system
until special building can pe provided
for its accommodation. To her mind there
were many reasons against making q
change and few in support of it. The
Franklin building had advantages which
would be lacking in the Henry building,
and the former building could be made en-
tirely, suitable for the requirements of the
school.
Mr.. Harries expressed surprise ut the
position assumed by Mrs. Stowell, as 1t
was contrary to what she had heretofore
led him to understand. The adoption of
her motion would be notification of the
action Of the board on the subject at its
last meeting, where it was decided to have
but one Normal School.
Mr.. Barnard said he thought it mad been
arranged that the Normal School should be
established in the Henry building AS the
best place for it under all the circum-
stances, and he was surprised to hea- OBJ
Jectfons to the plan.
DIR. Wilmer moved that the subject be
referred TO the committee on High and
Normal Schools for consideration and re-
port. and the motion was seconded by MIR.
Barnard 1t was adopted by an over
whelming vote, Mrs. Stowell casting the
only vote in the negative. H-e

WEATHER CONDITIONS UNFAVOR-
ABLE.
Condition of the Crops Throughout
the Country

Condition of the CrOps THROUGHOUT
the Country.
The weather bureau in its report of crop
conditions for the week ended June says:
The week has been unseasonably cool and
unfavorable to crop growth throughout the
central valleys, lake region, New England
and middle Atlantic states. In the southern
states the temperature conditions have been
more favorable. On the north Pacific coast
rain Is badly needed. In the southern
states corn has made good progress during
the week, but throughout the central and
northern districts the crop has made but
slow growth, owing to abnormally low
temperatures. Poor stands are reported
generally from the states of the Ohio val
ley, lake region and New England. and in
Wisconsin and South Dakota the crop has
sustained injury by frost. some being per-
manently damaged in South Dakota
The reports generally Indicate that cot
ton has made but slow growth during the
week, and that the CROP as a whole. is
backward: Some Improvement, as COM
pared with Its condition in the previous
week, Is reported from Georgia Arkansas
and Louisiana. In northern Texas replant-
ing continues and growth has been re-
tarded by the cool weather. but in other
sections OF the state the crop has made
fair growth. although damaged to some
extent in localities by heavy rains.
Harvesting of winter wheat is now gen.
erai In the southern states. Some has been
cut , as Iar north as southern New Jersey.
and harvesting will begin in southern Kan
sas IN about ten days. The reports affect
ing this crop are generally favorable, but

He Reported to the President on
Reaching the City.

w. ]. Calhoun of Illinois, the special
courier sent to Cuba by President McKin-
ley, arrived from New York yesterday
afternoon at o'clock. He went immedi-
ately to the State Department where
Judge Day, the assistant secretary of state
was awaiting him. and together they pro-
ceeded to the White House. They were
shown into the cabinet room. where Presi-
dent Mckinley and Judge Day listened to
Mr.. Calhoun's description of the situation
in the war-ridden island and to the con-
clusons reached by him. Judge Day de-
clined to be interviewed on the subject of
the conference further than to say 1t was
very interesting. Mr.. Calhoun likewise pre-
ferred not to talk of the interview further
than to say he had reported to the Presl-
dent what he had seen and heard.
The report of Consul General Lee on the
Ruiz case Is in the city, having been
brought here by Mr.. Fishback. the secre-
tary who accompanied Mr.. Calhoun on his
surprise at the publication OF what pur-
ported to be Gen. Lees report. He said
the document had been sealed In Consul
General Lees Office in the regular official
way and delivered to Mr.. Fishback, who
brought it to New York and to Washing
ton. He was unable to understand how it
should have become public.
Mr.. Calhoun talked with less freedom
than characterized his interviews while in
New York. He complained that some Of
these had been exaggerated and had made
him say what he had not uttered The COM
missioner carefully refrained from express
ing any opinion as to the probable policy
OF the President In acting on the Cuban
question, declaring that he had been to the
island simply to learn facts and to report
what he had seen and heard. This he had
done. II he has formed any opinion re-
garding the Ruiz case, Mr.. Calhoun polite.

prospects OF the continuation Of the war

The CoIored Race Trims Out a. 1t
Comes North.
Frederick j. Brown, of Baltimore,
supports with statistics the claim that,
contrary to the views held by census
officials, the trend of colored migration
is from the southern to the northern
states, says an exchange. This
migration, he thinks, is on the in
crease. He finds from a study of the
natural increase of the colored popula-
ton that the rate decreases as one goes
from the south to the north. Thus,
while it is 25 per cent. in ten years in
Florida, in South Carolina and Georgia
it is 1874, in North Carolina 1871,
in the border states GA, and in
the northern states 81 or pos
sibly less But the actual rate
of the increase of the colored popula-
ton of the north in ten years was nearly
81 per cent, and the difference between
this and the rate of natural increase is
ascribed by Mr.. Brown to migration
from the south. Mr.. Brown also shows
that there are great inequalities in the
distribution of the colored people in
the south. In some sections the negroes
enormously outnumber the whites, as
in South Carolina and along the Missis-
sppi from Memphis nearly TO New Or
leans, and in these sections the dispar-
ity is increasing. In other sections the
negro is almost nonresident, averaging
only one per cent. of the total popula-
ton. This is notably true Of nearly
one-half of the state of Texas. 1t is
further pointed out that in these Sec
lions the white population is increas-
ing faster than the average.

SAVED BY a PET GOOSE,
This Much-Malisned Bird Rescues a
Man from Fire.


Henry j. johnson, who lives near
Choconut Center, was saved by a pet
goose from cremation in his barn re-
Gently, says the New York Press. Mr.
johnson owns a large gray goose that
has been brought up by hand" The
bird has developed a strong attach
ment for its owner and will leave the
flock to follow him about the farm.
The other day a severe thunderstorm
passed over the place and Mr.. johnson
hurried to the barn to put up the horse.
Suddenly there was a sharp fash and a
severe crash of thunder directly over
head.
A member of the family a few mo-
ments afterward glancing from a rear
window saw the goose come screaming
from the barn, fly through the rain to
the house and then back again to the
barn. This action was repeated several
times before the family decided to in
vestigate. On entering the barn they
found it filled with smoke. Lightning
had struck a rafter, and, passing down.
ward, had set fire to some clapboards.
The flames. which had gained consider
able Roadway, were extingushed by
prompt action. Mr.. johnson was found
lying on the floor, unconscious. and in a
few minutes more the structure about
him would have been ablaze. The light
ming stripped the feathers from half a
dozen chickens on an adjacent roost
without injuring the birds Mr.. John
son will recover.
