For some reason or other-possibly

hair is becoming more common each
year. The women hate it-eyen the

blame them. One very prominent club
woman in the city who is a model Of
intelligence and strong mindedness,
has a perfectly white lock right in the
middle of her pOmpadOur, and comes
here every two weeks to have it doc
tored. That's proof of her intelli-

One amusing thing in our business is
the number of nice old ladies who come
in with a guilty air and ask whether
there is any way of making Streaked
gray hair uniform grey or white. 1t
can be done, but do not undertake it.
1t is a dangerous process because of the
very strong applications necessary !;
and there have been a good many cases
of brain trouble resulting from the
treatment. 1 do not care to take the
chances, but it is easy to find hair

FLOGGING IN BRITISH NAVY
tFrom the London TRUTH

IT IOlll Tic 44OAAaOA QNA1.l
On September % Thomas Mcclellan,
late second-class leading stoker on her
majesty's ship Doris, was logged at
SimOns Town for the ofense of malin-
gering. The report of the circumstan-
ces, which appeared in the Western
Morning News of October "a, is not very
lucid, but l gather from it that the
malingering took place while the man
was undergoing a sentence of imprisOn-
ment on the Penelope for striking
chief Stoker. A medical survey was
first held on the accused, which pre-
sumably resulted in a finding that he
had been shamming sickness. On this
board of three officers sentenced the
man to 1S laSheS. after receiving IL
lashes" said the report 1.-The prisoner
became insensible, and the medical Of
ficer present (the staff surgeon of the
Monarchy stopped the cruel proceeding,
and the Wretched man was borne bleed
ing and tsenseless to his cell" There
does not appear, therefore, to be any
suggestion that he was maiingering this
time.
The Western Morning News, in chron-
icing this incident, expresses the hope
that it may lead to a renewed agitation
for the abolition of logging in the
navy. I can hardly conceive it possible
that any one possessed of ordinary hui
man feeling will fail to join in this
hope. AS to the desirability of corporal
punishment, whether in the navy or
elsewhere, for certain peculiarly brutal
classes OF crime. opinion may differ. But
the idea of fiOgging a man senseless for
such a trumpery offense as that of pre-
tended sickness in order to eVade prison
dicipline is revolving to the most ele-
mentary feelings of justice and human
ity. The reader will note that this poor
wretch was sentenced (by three officers
commanding her majeSty's ships and
with the approval of the communicating
chief on the station) to receive Is lash
es, and what that punishment would
have meant, had it been carried out,
may be judged from the fact that the
man had become senSeleSS from pain
and a medical officer had to interfere
before two-thirds of the sentence had
been executed. Such a result, considered
in conjunction with the paltry charac-
ter of the crime" for which this muir
derous penalty was imposed, should con-
vince every one of the utter unfitness
of many of our naval officers to be In
trusted with such powers over their
subordinates.

GODDARD SUGGESTS.
Attorney General an Adviser in Fight
Against Arkansas City Saloons.

The local authorities at Arkansas
City are preparing to open a fight on
the saloons and joints which they prom
Use to pursue mercilessly until the vio-
lators of the law are brought to justice
and compelled to go out of business.
An effort was made by the authorities
to have the state administration take
the initiative but the administration
preferred that the local authorities be-
gin the fight This. opinion was based
upon the idea that nothing has been at
tempted by the Arkansas City people.
In response to a letter from the city
authorities Attorney General GODDARD
went to Arkansas City for conference
with those whose duty it is to enforce
the prohibitory law
Mr.. GODDARD pointed out the way of
dealing with the problem and planned
with the local authorities the campaign
which will be made against the liquor
element. However, Mr.. GODDARD is TAX
ing no part in the matter at this time,
beyond suggesting to those who want
ed him to make the fight that it would
be wiser for the local authorities to be-
gin the work.
The attorney general was asked for
suggestions only during his visit at
Arkansas City. He was not requested
to name an assistant attorney general
or prosecutor in these cases, but the
local authorities will themselves deal
with the saloons.

Mules Leaped over Him.

LFrom the st. Louis Post-Dispatch.1
John Fagen, night foreman of the
National Stock Yards in East st. Louis,
narrowly escaped death beneath the
hoofs of a herd of savage mules at the
yards early Saturday morning.
He owes his life to his presence of
mind and the instructive fear the mule
has of stepping on soft surface.
Mr. Pagan watches over the yards at
night, sees that all the animals are
quiet and keeps burning the electric
lights which illuminate the pens.
Last night he saw the light was out
in pen No. q. He supposed that the
pen was empty and entered 1t. Midway
down the narrow space he stumbled
and fell over the body of a sleeping
mule. His left wrist was badly sprain-
ed, and as he fell he heard the clatter
of a herd of frantic mules stampeding
down the pen. They had come in late
that night from Palmyra, Mo-, and were
wild as hunted hare.
Before Mr.. Pagan could rise the ami
mails were upon him. He lay still. ex-
pecting to feel their hoofs each mo-
ment.
He was lying in the center Of the pen,
and the space on either side was too
narrow for the mules to pass.
But when the mules reached him they
SHE'D and began to jump over the pros
trate man. He could hear the sharp
click of their hoofs in the air. His head
reeled, but he lay still and in a moment
the herd of so had passed.
Then Mr.. Fagen staggered to the
fence and tried to climb. But he was
too weak.
He could hear the mules as they
reached the end of the Enclosure and
started back. He cried out and the sta
BILE men rescued him.

HAWAIIAN GOVERNMENT.
TFrom the Baltimore Sun.1

If Hawaii becomes a state in the near
future it may not,in its domestic affairs,
be under the control of Americans I'M
less an election law is enacted more
sweeping in its provisions than any
statute in force in the southern states.
There is a total population in Hawaii
of 124, 234, of which about 215 per cent
is American. There are 40 900 japanese,
81 600 Chinese, 1000 Hawaiian abOr
igineS, 8 400 of mixed Hawaiian and for
eign descent. IL, 100 Portuguese, 5000
Americans, 2200 British, ], 400 Germans,
479 French and Norweigians and 1.055
of all other nationalitieS- The Hawaiian
aborigines outnumber 10 to l the Amer
lean population. and If the principle of
manhood suffrage under republican in
situations is recognized in Hawaii they
should be able to secure the control of
the islands if they vote solidly togeth-
er, as the negroes of the south do. 1t
is assumed that the japanese and
Chinese will be diSfranchiSed. If the
purpose of the administration is to sup
press the Hawaiians in the interest of
the Americans, many of New England
descent who seized the islands by revo-
lutionary methods. there can logically
be no objection to the methods by which
the southern states protect themselves
against negro voters. The HaWaiians
are as much entitled to a controlling
voice in Hawaii as the negroes of Mis-
sissippi and South Carolina are entitled
to the right to rule in those states by
virtue of their numerical superiority
When Hawaii becomes a state it is not
likely the natives will be given the

IF'rom the London Standard
while above our heads the Shrek Of the
shells and the thunderclaps of bursting
shrapnel made a din that was appalling
to those who had not had previous ex-
perience of modern projectiles. So keen
were the rank and file of the Devonshires
that more than one man exposed himself
to the deadly aim of the Beers merely in
order to satisfy himself as to the pro-
gress of the fight. I heard one soldier
invite his comrade to put up his head and
see how the Beers were getting on. Il will
reply-a. very natural one, considering
that the air seemed to consist of flying
lead.
The Gordon Highlanders were especial
" anxious to teach the enemy a lesson.
juba Hill and the Beers had afterward
referred to them in derision as ''kaffirs
clothed in kits" The men were keen on
wiping out the insult, and to this end bore
themselves with the most reckless cour-
age. Nor were the Manchesters one whit
less ardent or determined.
1t was "a magnificent and soul-stirrfng
spectacle as our gallant fellows dashed
straight at the enemy, driving them ire
sistibly from point to point The Beers
stood their ground to the last with the
match for our men in personal combat,
and were driven back in hopeless confu-
sion. Fifty or sixty of them, mounting
their horses. made off at full speed Owe. over
the hills toward the east. Another fif-
shot had been fired.
With a loud cheer and a shout from the
Gordon Highlanders of What price Ma

and the officers checked their men in mid

No praise can be too high for the cour-
age and self-sacrifice Of our officers:
Their behavior was worthy of the finest
traditions of the British army.
Their courage was not mere reckless
ness, Ouf osllDerateIy cale9Iared with the
men who followed them Yet it is only

PEOPLE OBJECT.
Do Not Want Potwin School Used
For Political Meetings.

At the last meeting of the school
board a request was received from resi-
dents of the Sixth ward requesting that
the public school buildings there be
opened for political meetings.
The formal motion was made by G.
w Tincher from the Sixth ward, that
the POtWin and Lowman Hill schools
be opened for political meetings when
the citizens requested. The motion was
carried. Some residents of Potwin
have since criticised the action of the
board for the reason that the people of
Potwin and Auburndale are not allowed
to use the school building for Sunday
school. Soon after Mr.. Tincher was ap-
pointed a member of the board he
moved that the right given the people
to use the building for Sunday school
be rescinded as the building was not left
in proper condition after the meetings.
The motion was carried. The criticism
will have little effect upon the mem
bers of the board from the Sixth ward
as both Mr.. Tincher and Mr.. Hender-
son will not be candidates for re-elec-
ton

FIGHT ON DOLMAN.
Republican Flambeau Club Will Dis
cuss Third TERRIERS.

According to present Indications a
row win be started at the meeting of
the Republican F'lambeau club on
Wednesday evening. It will be over
county politics. Oscar Swayze, who is
secretary of the club, has announced
that ne viii introduce a resolution at
that meeting of the club to place the
club on record against candidates for
office for third terms.
The avowed object of Secretary
Swayze in introducing this resolution
is to get a slap at Probate Judge Dol
man, who is running for third term,
and TO commit the club against Dol
man. There may be others to whom
Mr.. Swayze viii apply the resolution,
but Judge DoIman is the principal one.
Exceptions will be made of Congress
man Curtis and Judge HaZen.
The announcement of Judge Dolman
that he will be a candidate for a third
term has created considerable excite
ment in ultra Republican circles. Mr..
Swayze's idea is that offices should be
passed around so long as they are kept
in the f1ambeau club. He believes that
county offices should be a reward for
faithfLlness to the fambeaD club.
Judge Dolman is also a member of
the fambeau club, and a member of
the committee on political action. He
will marshal his forces to fight the
resolution on the ground that the club
ought not to take action either for
or against any candidate before the
primaries. A lively scrimmage is
likely to result.
II intend that the resolution shall be
couched in no uncertain terms" said
Secretary Swayze. but at the same
time I will word it so that there will
be no mistake about its not applying
to Judge Hazen and Charlie Curtis"
Among the rank and file of the Re
publican party in the county, without
reference to the f1ambeau club, there
is a disposition to sidetrack Judge Dol
mans ambitions, but any attempted ac-
ton to force him off the track through
an action of the fiambeau club might
result in making friends for him. At
present most Republicans think that
he has had a good thing for four years,
which is enough in consideration of the
fact that two other county offices are
regulated by law in this respect. The
law prohibits one person from holding
the offices of sheriff or county treasurer
more than two consecutive terms. The
office of probate judge in Shawnee
county is an exceedingly good thing
for the holder, but as it requires no
great ability to properly fill it. there is
a disposition on the part of the voters
to give it to some one else, provided
no attempt is made to force them to
do so,
