seen for girls of various ages are made of
tinted felt, witt the brims laced with black
velvet ribbon. The crown garnishing,
which is also Of velvet, generally consists
of rosettes and streamers. Such a hat
can be had ready made for $3.50. Beauti-
full sashes in soft Louisine ribbon initiate
the old Roman stripes, and others show the
delicate Powered stripes and dainty pat
terms of the Pompadour and Dresden silks.
The method OF wearing the wide sash has
never changed. 1t still girdles the waist
and ties at the back in a large bow, with
ends reaching almost to the skirt bottom.
For baby girls the old%-fashioned way of
tying up short sleeves with ribbons or
looping them with coral and gold links
has come in again.
Something in Hand.
Teachers who include the training of the
body in their curriculum assert that some
thing to carry in the hand decreases self
consciousness and helps to correct the
clumsiness of changing childhood. So give
the winter girls muffs and the boys canes,
which all English boys carry, and see how
the trick works. The big muffs now fash
ionable might serve this useful purpose
with one sex, and for the other. the Eng
iHsn nallers sho" tue smart htlle canes
with dog-head knobs, which might take
anybody's mind away from himself.
Gloves worn by these small gentlemen
are more than ever mannish in make and

they likewise show .''prix" seams and &

IMPORTANT SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY.
A Clinical Preparation that Positively
Kills the Germ.

A most important discovery has been
made after a years patient laboratory
work aimed in a certain direction. II is
Newbro's Herpieide, a preparation that
cures badness, prevents falling hair and
speedily and permanently eradicates dan
druff. These evils are caused by a germ
or parasite that burrows into the scalp,
throwing up %dandruf. as It seeks to sap
the life of the hair at the root. There is
no badness without falling or thin hair,
no thin hair without dandruf, and no
dandruff If the germ is destroyed. New
bros Herpicide is the only preparation
that will do the work. Destroy the cause,

STOCK MARKET IMPROVED.
II Opened Rather Panichy. but Afterwards
Substantial Gains Were Made ~ All she
Better Glass Securities.

New York, Aug. 7.-Followsng
weak, almost panicky opening, yes
terday's stock market suddenly re-
versed It's course, substantial gains be-
ing registered by practically all the
better class of securities. The average
of net advances was about two per
cent In some instances gains were
much greater. The change OF front
which occurred In the early afternoon
was doubtless due to several reasons
the most potent of which was the
good" buying which seemed to ema-
nate from high quarters. There Is lit
tie room for doubt that stocks were
purchased freely yesterday by insiders
by banks, banking houses, finapclai
institutions generally and wealthy In
diyiduals because they seemed cheap.
No Justification could be found for the
report rather industriously circulatea
that the vandervilts, Rockefellers and
Harrimans with their hosts OF follow
ers had entered upon plan TO nlt
prices. As a matter OF fact, no ittie
part Of yesterdays Improvement was
undoubtedly due to extensive covering,
many on the short side regarding the
market as being very much oversold.
Despite the marked improvement FUR
Their talk of trouble and probable fall
ures was heard on every side almost TO
the close. which was really buoyant.

from Montreal to Rev. George II.
Spencer, the pastor Of his church in
East Boston, Willard s. Allen, treas
urer of the Preachers Aid society OF

COLOR LINE IN NAVY.
Petty Oflcers on Board the ColumDia no
fused to Mess with Col
Ored Mate.

New York, Aug. 1.-THE color line
has been drawn on board the United
States receiving ship Columbia at the
Brooklyn navy yard. The CHIEF petty
officers have refused to mess with a
negro who has Just been sworn In as
chief carpenters mate. They have as
serted their unwillingness to assocl-
ate with him In any way, or to receive
or carry out any orders that may
come to them through him in the line
Of duty.
Isaac Miller, the chief carpenters
mate, is not a full-blooded negro. he
has been in the navy many years and
has a good record. For a long time
prior to his recent promotion, which
was for merit, he ranked as carpenters
mate of the first-class. When Miller
appeared at the chief petty officers
mess on Wednesday eight other mem
hers Of the mess arose and left the
table when he sat down. Miller ate
bis dinner as II nothing out OF the
ordinary had happened. Since then ne
has had no company at his meals.
He has been allowed, when he reached
the table first, to eat alone, and when
others have preceded him he has walt
ed until they finished eating, Capt
Snow said Miller's rights would Dc
protected, as the navy makes no dis
t,nction as to color.

STOCK KILLED BY BIG CHUNKS OF ICE



Denver, COL, Aug. "details Of the
storm which prevailed along the east
ern slope Of the Rocky mountains In
Colorado and southern Wyoming
Wednesday night show 1t to have been
much more severe than at first re-
ported. In some sections the hailfall
was unprecedented. In the neighbor-
hood Of Greeley and Eaton. In the
northern part Of Colorado, chunks OF
Ice, measuring In some instances ten
inches In length, fell and the damage
wrought was immense. Sheep were
struck dead in the corrals and cattle
and horses were severely injured.
Farmhouses and barns were wrecked
and crops utterly wiped out OF exist
ence. Near Greeley man named
johnson was severely bruised and rem
dered unconscious by the hall. The
damage cannot be estimated In that
section, but will reach thousands OF
dollars. Near Lafayette, COL, there
were two storms, the second following
the first within Is minutes and with
greater severity. The streets Of the
town we're flooded, cellars partially
filed with water and trees and shrub
berry stripped Of foliage. Many win
dow panes were broken. The crops
in the country surrounding were de-
stroyed. Hail lay on the ground In
many places to a depth Of two feet.
The damage in and around Lafayette
is estimated at 100000. In southern
Colorado the rainfall was very heavy,
approaching the proportions OF a
cloudburst in several places. Railroad

for some time by washouts. The Santa
Fe was also seriously affected.
