# A Greek barber has opened a shop
In New York to make popular ne"
way of cutting hair. He uses shears
only for trimming the hair over the
cars and at the back of the neck. For
lcutting the long hair he uses very
sharp razor. He runs the hair through
10 fine comb and slices It off to the
right length. He says that this meth
'od not only cuts the hair evenly, but
also removes all dead hairs. Moreover,
he alleges that it is twice as quick as
the old way. There are comparatively
few really good hair cutters in this
lefty. and II the Greek can demonstrate
the value of his innovation he will
earn the gratitude of many citizens.

When the Prince of Wales WAS pro-
claimed king some one remembered
that on his visit to this city in 1860
he planted two trees in Central Park,
.an oak and an elm, and as soon as
sthls fact was published these trees,
which are still alive, became objects
of unusual interest to the park Wis
itors. Andrew II. Green was comptrol-
sler of Central Park, and he accompan-
led the prince on his tree planting
expedition. As many other people as
could crowd around the distinguished
party saw the trees properly planted.
They stand on the west side of the
mall. just south of the eagles statue
Sand properly enough the American elm
has hourished more than the English
ioak. These two trees have not at
stracted any particular attention in re-
cent years, but Just now they are PROV
ing very interesting to the people
who have identified them.

MONDAYS FIRE.

At 1:30 o'clock on Monday
afternoon an alarm from box 81
called the fire boys to the resi-
dence of Mrs. Robt. H. Critten-
den, on Mapping street, between
Washington and Wilkinson streets
where it was found that there
was a pretty serious blaze, the
whole roof being on fire.
By hard work the boys succeeded
in putting out the fire, but not
before the roof was consumed.
1t seems that the roof caught
fire early that morning, from a
defective flue, but was thought to
have been extinguished; it, how
ever, smouldering until the hour
named.
The loss by fire and water was
about $4,000, on which, unfortu-
nately, there was no insurance.
The property belongs to the
Misses Burnley, who live with
their sister, Mrs. Crittenden.
We notice that some of our ex-
changes stated that it was one of
the oldest houses in the city.
This is mistake, as it was built
by the late Mr.. Jno. B. Bibb, in
1857 or 1858, and there are any
number of houses that were built
long years before this one.

EARLY CLOSING.

We desire to again call the at
tention of our merchants, to the
desirability of their uniting in
the proposition to close all bus
mess houses at 7 o'clock p. 10.
during the months of June, July
and August.
1t is a we'll known and acknowl-
edged fact that the clerks in retail
establishments, where they close
early, during the hot months,
are in better condition to render
intelligent and efficient service
than they could be if kept at work
until the late hours prevailing
during the rest of the year.
Humanity, if nothing else.
should prompt employers to give
their employees this boon.
Much the greater number of the
larger retail stores in our big
cities close up promptly at 6
o'clock p. m. the year round.
Why should our merchants sthen
withhold this act of Justice to
their tired force during this short
period?
We are glad to say that almost
every merchant who has been
approached on the subject has
readily consented to sign the
agreement. There are only one
or two holding out against it. We
trust they may see their error
and join in with their compet-
itors.
After the first few days there
will be but little inconvenience to
any one, and that should not be
thought of when the benefits are
so great to this hardworking class
of our citizens.
