Long and Short Hafr.

Homer wrote of the long haired
Greeks by way of honorable distinc-
tion. Subsequently the Athenian cav.
airy and all Laced3mOnian soldiery
wore long hair. The Parthians and an
cient Persians wore long, flowing hair.
The Franks and ancient TeutOnS con-
sidered long hair mark of high birth.
The Goths looked on long hair as a
mark of honor and on short hair as a
mark of thraldom. So did the Gauls.
for which reason Julius Caesar. when
he subdued them. obliged them to cut
their hair short in token of submission.
In England judges, the speaker of
the house of commons and at one time
the bishops wore long hair. while Grim
inals and paupers wore short hair. On
the other hand, Jewish priests during
their time of service had their hair cut
once a fortnight. and Roman slaves
wore their hair and beard long. but
shaved their heads when manumitted
Sailors who escaped from shipwreck
shaved their heads as if manumitted
from the sea. In Ezekiel V, |. there is
mention of a "barber's razor" with in
structiOns to thou. son of man, take
thee BARRIERS razor and cause it tC

A WORTHY SUCCESSOR.
Something New Under The Sun. E

All Doctors have tried to cure
CATARRH by the use of powders,
acid gases, inhalers and drugs in paste
form. Their powders dry up the
mucous membranes causing them to
crack open and bleed. The powerful
acids used in the inhalers have entirely
eaten away the same membranes that
their makers have aimed to cure,
while paste and ointments cannot
reach the disease. An old and ex-
perienced practitioner who has for
many years made a close study and
speciality of the treatment of CA
IARRH, has at last perfected treat
ment which when faithfully used, not
only relieves at once, but permanently
cures Catarrh, by removing the cause,
stOE ping the discharges, and curing all
| inflammation. 1t is the only remedy
known to science that actually reaches
the afflicted parts. This wonderful
remedy Is known as ''Snuffles the
/ Guaranteed Catarrh Cure" and is sold

gro, ALI Wilder charged with the muir.
der of Mrs. Caldwell, the wife of n
Grayson county farmer, at her home
on Saturday last, was captured by a
mob and burned at Nelson's ranch
The burning occurred last night.
The mob was composed of 800 men.
The negro was taken to a tree and
swung up in the air. Wood and fodder
were piled beneath his body and hot
fire made.
Then 1t wGs suggested that the man
ought not to die too quickly and he
was let down to the ground, while a
party went to Dexter about two miles
distant, to procure coal oil. This was
thrown on the flames and the work
completed.
Wilder was captured near Dexter
yesterday afternoon. He had been seen
the day before by a negro who knew
him and who had informed the citi-
zens of the fact. A posse was at once
organized and the work of beating the
river bottoms began. II is said that
1t was the intention of the mob to take
Wilder back to the scene OF his crime
and there lynch him, but messages by
telegraph and telephone gave warning
that the authorities were repairing to
the scene with a considerable force
and the work of execution was ex
pedlted.
At Whitsboro great crowd had
gathered in anticipation Of chance
to participate in the lynching and
when 1t was learned the work had been
done they expressed great disappoint
ment.

OIL FIRE IS STILL RAGING
Big Plant at Philadelphia the
Prey Of Flames.
LOSS is NEARING MILLION MARK
Another Explosion Has Destroyed
Pumps, Leaving Department serl'
ously Handicapped, and conflaora-
tion Defies Efforts to Check II.

Philadelphia. Aug. 2l.--Tho fire
which began Monday afternoon at the
works OF the Atlantic Refining com.
pany at Point Breeze, in the south
western section of the city, Is still
burning fercely and Fire Chief Baxter
has given up hope Of saving any of the
company's property. The one hope of
the firemen was their ability to pump
the oil from the tanks not reached by
the flames to reserve tanks in an iso
lated section of the yards. An explo'
sion carried away the pumping ma
chinery and nothing remains now, ap
parently, but to permit the confagra
ton to burn until all the oil Is con
sumed.
II Is believed that the five lives
lost In the explosion of the big gaso
line tank completes the list OF fatal
tiles. The dead are: John McCullon
James Falls John Daugherty Frank
Davis. all firemen. and Alexander Tim
mers, workman.
In the second explosion Is persons
were injured seriously enough to be
taken to hospitals and about 40 others
were treated on the scene by the am
bulance surgeons.
Briefly, the story Of the fire may be
thus summarized: The roll of injured
mounts up to more than 100. The
fire is still raging and is eating uT
oil at the rate of 100000 a day Fire
men and officials are powerless. The
fire must literally burn itself out
The cooperage shop has been swept
away and in its destruction 40 mer
narrowly escaped death. The tanks
| of benzine are going. Earthworks
have been thrown up TO keep the
SChuylliill river from becoming flooded
with blazing oil. The firemen say they
are working in the dark, they do moi
know where the danger spots are.
The officials of the company refuse
to give any estimate of the loss. Those
in a position to know estimate 1t from
$500,000 to S1000,000. AS the Stand
ard Oil company, which controls the
Atlantic Refining company, does Its
own insuring, the loss will fall on the
insurance fund of that concern.
