to dandruff. There are hundreds of prep

but not. one but Newbro's Herpicide tells
you that daRdruff is the result of germ
burrowing into the scalp, and that per-
manent cure of dandruff and it's conse-

nOIES FROM The nARBOR.

Capt. Gegg who has I'm charge the tug
John scully Of the scully line was rather
surprised when he arrived in port yes
terday TO learn OF the havoc of the storm
of last week all along the coast. He
stated that he and his tow were out in
the storm "Wednesday, but seemed 20
have missed the heavier part OF the gale.
In the course of his conversation he also
said that on Thursday while Off the coast
of Delaware he sighted a schooner In
rather a dilapidated state for her sails
were a mass OF tatters and she seemed
10 be laboring under difficulties. Though
he went within a mile OF her he saw
no signal OF distress displayed and so did
not hail her. The vessel had three an
chors out and was plainly trying to out
ride the storm.
The John scully brings two barges Of
coal 20 this port for the Railway com
pany.
One more barge has gone 10 the bottom
OF the Sound Capt III. L. Huntley OF
the tug Nathan Hale. which arrived In
this port yesterday reports that Thurs
day the barge Narragansett sprang a
leak and went TO the bottom. There was
quite a swell running and when the craft
began TO leak the water poured in at
the rate OF foot an hour. The pumps
OF the engine though working for all
they were worth were ef no avail and
when the captian found that there was
about eight feet Of water in the hold h~
thought IL was about time 20 seek other
quarters So loading all available com
morities into a boat all the crew en-
barked and left the barge 20 her fate.
The other barge that was following
had broken away and was going along
under her own sail so the seamen OF the
sinking vessel made for her and came to
this city In her with the tug. The Mar
had formerly been one OF
the queens of the Sound being one OF
the passenger boats OF the Stonington
Line. n was only IN 1900 that ehe was
turned into n barge.
