Every person, male or female, shrinks

healthy growth of the hair promoted. The
hair grows in the scalp Ike plant in the
soil. If plant hourishes, it must have
constant attention; 4 must be watered
regularly and find its food in the soil
where it is rooted. It's so with the hair.
Neglect is usually the beginning of bald
ness Dandruf is allowed to thicken on
the scalp. The hair begins to loosen The

The u. and o. and Greater New York.
The Baltimore and Ohio railroad
now runs its freight trains over Its
own tracks into New York city. Years
ago line was built from Crawford
Junction on the Jersey Central rail-
road to st. Georges, Staten Island,
crossing the Kill Won Kull on long
bridge and trestle work, and all B. &
o. freight, either inbound or outbound,
was handled from that point. The re-
cent extension Of the limits Of New
York city has made Staten Island a
part of Greater New York, and the B. &
o. now enjoys the distinction OF being
the only line from the west, except
one, which has its own rails into the

TRYING TO KEEP PEACE.
What General Woodford's Mission
to Spain Was.

MADRID, April 3, 6 p. MIN an
swer to a request from the Associated
Press, General Woodford the United
States Minister, made the following
statement:
THE obligations of my diplomatic po-
sition absolutely forbid my granting an
interview or giving the slightest inti-
nation as to the present condition of
the diplomatic negotiations entrusted
to my care. / came to Spain under in
structions from President Mckinley to
secure peace in Cuba with perman-
ent peace between the United States
and Spain, peace that should be built
upon bedrock conditions; conditions of
justice to Cuba, with assured protection
to the great American interests in that
island.
Il have labored steadily to obtain this
result. 1 have never lost my faith and
doubtful as conditions may seem to-
day, L still believe these great and good
purposes of my President may yet be
realized. I shall not rest from my labors
for a just and honorable peace until the
guns actually open fire, and my faith
is still strong that war, with all its
horrors, can be averted. Enough blood
has been shed in Cuba already and l
cannot believe the closing hours of the
nineteenth century can be redeemed by
a conflict between Spain and the United
States.
MY country asks for conditions that
will make peace and will have faith that
Spain will do what is necessary to as
sure justice in Cuba, and with justice,
peace is certain"

INDIAN VALLEY (via Merced),
April 3.-The Cross Greek bandits are
still hiding in the rough country back of
here. The utmost vigilance of the sew
eral Sheriff's posses who are patrolling
the hills has failed to disclose any trace
Of them since Thursday.
Constable Tom Mack of Merced and
John Dugain, cattle-buyer who knows
the country from here to Mariposa and
south to Fresno flats like a book, re-
turned to this place shortly after noon
to-day after a two days hunt that re-
suited in nothing satisfactory. Since
Thursday afternoon they covered a dis
tance of seventyfive miles on horse
back, but they obtained no trace of the
bandits except at one place. That was
in Cathay Valley yesterday. They ran
across the footprints of the men at a
point where they crossed the road. They
are sure it was the trail of the robbers.
Accurate measurements of the shoes
worn by Cliff Ragan and his mysterious
companion in crime are in the posses
sion of the officers who have Joined in
the hunt.
Mack and Dugain attempted to follow
the trail, but they lost it completely.
The men had cut across the country and
left no tracks.
Amos Dunaway, who carries the mail
between Cathay Valley, Indian Gulch
and Hornitos, brought in word to-day
that a deserted camp of the robbers has
been found in Cathay Valley only a few
hundred yards from the Francis mine,
or about fourteen miles from this place.
The men are supposed to have broken
camp there Tuesday morning. Mack
and Dugain also heard of this discov-
cry yesterday and carefully inspected
it. There was little to be seen except
the ashes of a campfire. This had been
built on the edge of Mariposa Creek
which runs close to the mine referred
to.
Mack and Dugain could discover no
footprints about the camp, and gave
it as their opinion, based on fnforma-
ton from the camp in that section
that the camp was that of other par
ties. They accordingly abandoned
what at first looked like a good Clew tc
penetrate the rougher country to the
southeastward.
Constable Mack said to-day that lie
was completely in the dark as to the
present whereabouts of the robbers, but
he does not think it will be many days
