Securing Your Scalp.

II your hair is brittle and thinning,
you have dandruff. The merely securing
OF the scalp of loose scales, won't cure
dandrnff; because dandruff is nothing
but scales of scalp being thrown up by a
pestierous little germ in burrowine it's
way to the root of the hair where it saps
the vitality, causing falling hair and, in
time, badness. Now you can't stop
dandruff, nor falling hair, nor prevent
badness unless you destroy that germ !;
and the only preparation that can do it
10 the new scientific discovery. Newbro's
Herpicide. In fact no other hair prep.
aration claims to kill the dandruff germ
all OF them will clean the scalp; soap
aud water will do that, but only Newbro's
Herpicide gets at the root of the trouble
aud kills the dandruf germ. % 80

Insurance Largely Abroad.

London, April 3O.-There is consid-
cradle anxiety in Edinburgh insurance
circles on account of the Ottawa fire,
as all the companies are heavily in
volved-
New York, April 3O.-American fire
companies, it is believed, suffer little
from the outcome of the fire. The
Aetna of Hartford. Phoenix of Book
lyn, Phoenix of Hartford, Connecticut
Fire, Queen of America, and the In
surance Company of North America do
business in Canada, but of these one or
two are said to confine their opera
tons to Montreal risks exclusively.
Foreign companies will have to pay
most of the claims, but as the business
is controlled by their Canadian
branches. little is known at the New
York offices about the actual risk in
the Hull territory. Coming at the
time when the loss records in the Uni
ted States show disastrous fire waste,
the Ottawa fire will, it is believed,
have depressing effect upon under
writing interests.

Angen Opposes Terrell.

New York, April 27.-Prof James B.
Angel, an ex-minister to Turkey, in
an address before the Ecumenical Con-
ference expressed views entirely oppo-
site to those given out by ex-minister
Terrell. He said:
The government which breaks
treaties with respect to missionaries
and sees that their own government
takes no step to protect them will easily
yield to the temptation to infringe on
the rights of other citizens. Therefore
wisely and OPPORTUNITY made. proper
demonstration in support OF a just de-
mand may obviate the ultimate neees-
sity of war

Austria SnernIates.

Vienna, April 27.-The Turko-A Amer
lean dispute excites much comment in
the Austria press. The Neue Frel
Presse remarks that since the Spanish
war the Americans seem to have lost
all respect for Europe and it comments
at great length upon the new aspects
that threaten to intrude on European
politics when America feels strong
enough to threaten European state
with naval demonstration" This
journal then goes on to say: 1T is diff
ficu1t to conceive what practical ad-
vantage will accrue to the United
States from the participation in the
eastern question but it will be a disa-
greeable surprise to Russia to find in
America a new rival to the domain
which Russia has always regarded as
her traditional inheritance

article, says: America as great pow
er has been too long left out of ac-
count. American imperialism may

their places and attacked them. H. c

of the men attacked, opened fire on

was instantly killed and Mcclure was
shot twice and badly hurt. Policemen
quickly surrounded the fighting men
and arrested them all Two of the
union men wore brass knuckles and
others carried clubs
After the arrest of the combatants
Chief Ripley expressed the opinion
that Baster was justified in shooting.
The chief declared that these assaults
upon non-union men must stop and he
issued orders demanding greater

Around the Stump.

Constantinople, April 2s.-In addi-
ton to rebuilding the American struc-
lures at Kharput, the sultan has found
a way of paying the indemnity by or
dering cruiser built in the United
States. the cost of which will include
the $4,000 claimed. By this adroit
move he hopes to she1ve the question
of principle and thus avoid giving the
powers a pretext for pressing their
claims. Another dispatch says: The
Turko-American difficulty is in a fair
way of settlement, the sultan having
promised satisfaction. 1t is asserted
that the Porte has revived the project
having cruiser built in the United
States to disguise the payment of in
demnity, and Ahmed Pasha is going to
New York to negotiate with the Cramps
on the subject.

KANSAS EIGHT HOUR LAW.
Contractors Arrested and viii De-
fend their Claims.
TAX PAYERS PAY DIFFERENCE.

Kansas City, Kas., April 30.-The,
Kansas eight-hour labor law is to be,
again attacked in the courts This
time the test case, which is to deter
mine the constitutionality OF various,
clauses of the act, will be instituted by
a contractor of this city.
The eight-hour law, or rather por-
ton of it, was recently declared to be,
constitutional by the state supreme
court, but it is claimed by Mr.. Atkin'
that there are several clauses, which
are most Objectionable parts of the law,
that have never been passed upon by
any court. He believes that the law
is unconstitutional because it dictates.
the price of wages that shall be paid.
The law provides that eight hours shall
constitute days work, and that the
same wages shall be paid for the eight
hour day as were previously being paid
for ten-hour, or longer day.
81 propose to attack the law in the
courts, - said Contractor Atkin, land if
I am compelled to, do all the fighting
myself, the United States supreme
court will have to declare the act con-
stitutional before 1 will lay down.
don't believe that the law is just one,
nor do I believe it constitutional If
the contractors are compelled to pay
for ten hours work in order to get
eight, why then the extra cost will fall
upon the taxpayers, as the contractors
will be compelled to raise their esti-
mates on work. We cannot take public
work at the prices we have been &C.
cepting it, and pay for two hours more
work on the day than we will receive.
You take contractor who is employ
ing $50 men a day on public job, the
wages averaging 20 cents an hour, and
| it will be seen that the eight-hour day
means a great deal to contractor. On
$50 men per day it would mean $50 a
| day out of the contractors pocket, or il
the estimates are raised to make up the
difference, it would be out of the peck
| cts of the taxpayers.

coast of Mexico. A large bulk of the
freight destined for South American
and Central American points now
handled exclusively by coast steamers
from California ports will be sent via
the Southern Pacific and Guaymas

Postal APPROXIMATION Bi1l.

Washington, April 25.-The house
entered upon consideration of the post
office appropriation bill which closed
with the adjournment and was devoted
largely to discussion of pertinent mat
tiers. Mr.. Bell, of Colorado, attacked
the exorbitant compensation paid rail-
roads for carrying the mails, which
averaged cents per pound The ex-
press rate from Boston to Chicago, he
said, was less than 1 cent per pound.
Why should the government pay more?
Since 1873 railroad rates had decreased
35 per cent and passenger rates 173z
per cent, but the rate for carrying the
mails had remained unchanged.

Quay not to be entitled to seat the

chamber eagerly followed the roll call,
for all knew the vote would be close.
When Senator Vests name was called
he voted No in a clear voice, thus
dashing the last hopes of the friends
of Mr.. Quay, who had expected con-
fidently that the distinguished Mis-
sourian would vote for his longtime
personal friend. In perfect silence it
was announced that the senate had
