Mrs, JAS H. Hart Meets
Death in a. Rasn-
: away Friday.

A frightful accident occurred last
Friday afternoon about 5 o'clock, at
the Ovid bridge just west Of the
Passey ranch.
Judge and Mrs. Jas. III. Hart had
been in Montpelier visiting friends
and relatives, and were on their way
home to Paris. Along in front of
Mr.. Passey's biace, the team became
frightened and started on run to-
ward Ovid. Mr.. Hart, though over
10 years of age. succeeded in hold
ing the horses in the road until they
reached the Ovid creek bridge. The
road runs due east and west, but the
bridge extends north and south, and
10 get onto the structure, it is neccs-
sary to make short right angle
turn. This the horses did, but the

Commercial Club Tackles
Several Important !
Problems. *

Recently the Commercial club Of
this city was re-organized and the
Following officers elected:
Dr.. D'Orr Poynter, president.
j. "A. Rostan, vice president.
@. G. Gray, treasurer.
Geo, <. Gardner, secretary.
These with j. r. Brennan, Henry
douglas and Mike Malone form theJ
fboard of directors. +
NIn addition to the social side Of
the organization, problems confront
ing the city's progress and prosper
ity are to be taken up and pushed to
successful solution
The bright outlook for Montpel-
ier is the incentive that moves the
club to put forth its best efforts
during the coming year. Already
they have taken up some of the
more important matters that are
vital to the city and county's wei
fare.
At meeting of the directors held
Monday night the following com
mittees were appointed to look
after the subjects mentioned:
To investigate the proposition OF
obtaining waterworks for the city,
how the same can be had, the cost,
source Of supply, etc. j. Il. Bren-

permit Of speedy trials Of all per-
sons accused of crime. The saving
in the board bills for prisoners in
the county Jail, while awaiting SEES
sions of the district court, the at
torneys claim, would more than
make mp the extra expense Of such
superior courts.
The passage of measure making
it mlsdemeanor to carry concealed
weapons was urged upon the legis-
lature. Such a law was declared
null and void by the supreme court
and there is now no law 'of the
state against carrying concealed
weapons.
A bill was also recommended
that all county officers, while away
from their homes on official busi-
ness, be allowed their necessary and
actual expenses, including railroad
and hotel bills. In most counties
this Is now the custom, but it seems
there is no legislative enactment au-
thorizing it.
A change is also urged in the law
relative to the caring for the poor.
AT present the county commissioners
have no legal authority to care foi
INDECENT persons, no matter how
worthy or in what circumstances,
except by sending them to the
poor farm, and change to
allow the commissioners some dis
cretion in the matter, along hu
name lines, is suggested.

eral amending, according to the at.
torneys. ~ many respects, they
claim, the law is at present made

NATURE SPARES
The stricken Rose From Grief.

Ems 6KFhcACA At0HC HEOm WfhSKs
What fortunate provision of nature
1t Is. that deprives the rose of mental
suffering; for how poignant would be It's
grief to discover, In the height OF It's
blooming glory, that a canker fed at Its
heart, and that Its beauty and fragrance
were doomed forever. Nature always
spares the suffering; she is veritablo
store-house Of pleasing rewards, for
those who seek her aid. In the years
gone by falling hair and grayness have
cast gloom over the lives OF thousands
of young women. but thanks TO the In
vestigations Of scientists the true cause
OF hair destruction Is now known to be
a germ or parasite that burrows into
the hair follicles. Newbro's Herpicide
absolutely destroys this germ, thus
permitting the hair to grow as ma
ture intended. Sold by leading drug
