was seen that Wheeling was in the lead
and finally II was selected unanimously.
a comittee OF five viii be appointed in
the near future to perfect all arrange
ments.
AND STILL ANOTHER ONE.
The next move started by the cham
Der of commerce is the securing of the
Ohio Valley Improvement Association
meeting at this place next year. 1t
meets on the 18th OF next month at Ev-
ansvllle. Last night the meeting de-
cIded to send committee OF
three, OF which the chairman OF the
board is to be president. to Evansville
including an invitation TO Governor At
kInson and Congressman Doyener TO be
present. But 1t seems foreGone con-
cluslon, however, that Wheeling VIII

talked OF in strong and forcible terms NJ
the associations last meeting. THIS
was brought about by the efforts Of the
Intelligencer. and 1t WIS also the pro-
jeetor In the matter Of bringing the
Army OF West Virginia to this city.
The meeting OF the association at
Evansville is to be very important
one In the matter OF improvement OF the
Ohio river and Its tributaries. The
work Of this association has revolution
lied public sentiment IN regard to the
Improvement OF internal waterways,
and the public has come to regard the
systematic plans now in progress with
high degree Of favor. This associa-
ton 10 not local In Its work. but has
mapped out the matter on broader lines,
The mosti important feature in the
way OF improvements 70 come up be-
fore the convention, and which Will
take up the major portion OF its time
will be the question OF making slack
water by dams ut intervals OF ten or NJ
teen miles. between Pittsburgh and Ma
rIetta. When this schema is perfected
the Ohio river will be thoroughly navi-
gable the year around, and, OF course,
1t will necesitate dam and harbor at
Wheeling. or not more than few miles
down the river, at least.

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 dandruf, cleanses the
scalp, nourishes the soil in
which the hair grows, and,
just as a desert will blossom
under rain, so bald heads grow
hair, when the roots are nour-
ished. But the roots must be
there. If you wish your hair
70 retain its normal color, or
if you wish to restore the lost
tint Of gray or faded hair use

AT MILOUNA
Greek Soldiers Still on the Field Are
Dead

ELASSONA, April Is. 9 p. M, head
quarters of the Turkish army in Mace
donia.-(Delayed in transmission) Af-
ter a most fatiguing day, with the head
uuarters' staff in the Milouna pass, the
correspondent Of the Associated Press
returned here.
The battle, resulting in giving the
Turks possession of Milouna pass, was
waged with admirable courage and de-
termination on both sides. The whole
pass rang with the roar of artillery and
the rattle of musketry. 1t was, however,
around the two Greek blockhouses that
the most furious conflict occurred. They
were defended with the utmost valor
and tenacity. The correspondent was
greatly struck with the coolness and dis
cipline of the Turks. In the midst of the
hottest firing four Turkish soldiers, ad-
vancing in skirmishing line, became de-
fached from the main body. Neverthe-
less, they continued to advance with
perfect self-possession amid a hail of
bullets. One of the men was hit and fell
Then the second was shot and the third
received bullet wound, but the fourth
man calmly continued firing without re-
xard for his personal safety. until the
Greeks retired.
8 The most important blockhouse near
