in the British dominions. The names cover four -quarto pages in the book. In the same volume our consular represent~ atives in Russia number only twenty four, and their names cover about oha- quarter of a page. We have cofsu1atos Or agencies at St. Petersburg, Riga, Odessa, Moscow, Batum, Dalnyr He1sing- Mrs, kronstadt, Libau, Revel. vlavivo- stock and Warsaw. To name the places in British dominions where our trade interests are sufficient for the maintea- anee of consuls would virtually be category of the important towns of the wHld where English is spoken.
 l1may be urged that more consulatss have been established in the places whore Americans like to go than in Russia, and. while this may count for something, It by no means explains any large part vf the disparity. The implied understand ing that consuls shall speak the language of the country to which they are accred- ited doubtless makes the English ports available to many more applicants than those of any other country. But for the Russian posts a knowledge of French would be sufficient, since that is the lazi- guage of the educated Russian, and no consul would have any trouble in using 1t as a medium of communication m any Russian city. Even our consuls 10 the Turkish dominions outnumber those to the Russian and they would do this even if the Egyptian consulates were eliminated, or changed to the British dominions, where they practically. if not technically belong.
 We have more consuls in the German Empire than, in France and her domsn- ions. In spite of the great advances of German trade in Asia and Africa, it Is notable. fact that we have no German consulates outside of the German Em- plre itself, except at Apia, Samoa. To the French, on the other hand, we ac- credit consular representatives in Sene- gal, in the West Indies, at Guadeioupe and Martinique, and elsewhere, in Cochin China, in the Society Islands, in Maca- gascar Tunis and Algiers. Our British consular representatives in principal part go to the colonies, as might be expected.
 The small place which Greece holds m the modern world is shown by the four small and ill-paid places at which littl> consulates arc maintained. We are bet ter represented in Honduras and Nica- ragua. Shades of Peficles! Italy still attracts a considerable line of consular officers, and Mexico is country with d large representation from here. In Per sia we have but one representative, and he is Q Vic eConsul General, born in England, appointed from Persia, and bearing the name of an American Pr9s- ident--John Tyler. In Oman we have one consulate with Archibald Mackirdy, a he is Vice Consul General, born in Scotland. and has for his Deputy Ma homed Fazel, who was born in India. We have but one consul in Rournania and one in servia, and one consulate in Siam and Zanzibar. ,s.

 The New Orleans States says:
 Unless there Is arstrict quarantine dc- clared by the New Orleans scaIpers against the non-transferrable mardi gras railroad ticket, there is likely to be work for the United States marshals. Easing the prognostication on what happened dtl- ring the actual life of the restraining or- dor against the Confederate reunion non- transferable tickets, there Is no other prediction to be made. Judge Parlange is not the Federal judge to brook violations of the injunction order issued yesterday. Penalties imposed by him in the past in cases where q disposition to under-esti- mate the force of his orders developed is proof that heavy punishment win come to the scalper who deigns to partake of the forbidden fruit. Of course there is the possibility that some broker" impressed with sense of his own shrewdness, will attempt an underhanded violation of the order, and the chances are that in one or two instances the violation of the order will be successful but It will not be a healthy occupation, this flddline with the burning coals of justice.
 i"rhe decision of Judge Parlange was a complete, victory for the railroads con- cerned in the injunction proceeding. The order issued by Judge ParlanEe Is as eff. fcctive on the mardi gras tickets as Judge Boarman's order was in the case of tho reunion tickets. The latter, it will be re. membered. gave couple of very festive scalpers what the man about town would describe as "a good time" It was long after the reunion had died away that at least two of the more bold of the craft walked out of the gates of the parish prison. wherein they sat meditating Au. ring the memorable events transpiring in New Orleans. A third escaped onlv he- cause his clerks assumed the responsih,I- ity and the penalty of the disrespeot shown the courts decree"

MARDI GRAS TRAVEL soUTHB0UND TRAINS ARE
 HEAVILY LOADED.
Montgomery Citizens Will Begin Leaving Today and Tonight for the Two Cities Where Joy
 Will Reign. -.

Mardi gras travel Is about at the flood tide and after tonight 1t will be virtually over for the carnival season of 1904 though the crowd will continue until to- morrow night.
 Yesterday and last night saw probably the heaviest rush of the week. the Louis yille and Nashville train No. l coming from the north yesterday morning with two heavily loaded sections, while the Western train came in with unusually heavy cars.
 Last night train No. of the Louisville and Nashville had very heavy run from the north while the Western train was in two sections. The first section of the Western last night was the regular mall connection of the Southern from Wash ington and New York and arrived on time Al s;sO D. m. The Louisville and Nashville took this connection and that of the reg ular So. 8 from Chicago and Cincinnati and left for Mobile and New Orleans on time at 9:35 p. m.
 At midnight the Western came in with a second section composed of eight Pull' mans and dining car and the Louisville and Nashville immediately carried them south as the second section of train No. 8.
 Today will probably see the heaviest rush of the week, the Golden Gate special coming through this morning in addition to extra sections of regular trains on the Louisville and Nashville and Western.
 Tonight the big local rush will set In. Most of the Montgomerians who go to Mobile and New Orleans spend Sunday. Monday and Tuesday and leave for homo Tuesday night, getting back Wednesday morning. the big show in the two towns occurring Tuesday morning and night While not as many extra trains have been run south this year" said Station Master McRae yesterday morning, tne business is as heavy if not heavier than It has been in years. With the great pas senger engines in use on the Mobile ana Montgomery division one train of from thirteen to fifteen cars can be pulled as easily as the engines year or so ago pulled train of eight cars. A train that is taken out now formerly went out in two sections and for this reason, while there Is just as much business now !. does not show up with the noise and con. fusion Of few years ago. A train o1 fifteen or sixteen cars Is handled as easily as one of eight cars was forsAGrly."

SPLIT, BRITTLE, DULL HAIR All Come from Dandrun, Which is
 Caused by a Germ.

Split hair, hard hair, lusterless hair, brittle hair, falling hair, all owe their origin to dandrun, which is caused by measly little microbe that burrows into the scalp, throwing up. the cuticle into dandruff scales and sapping the vitality of the hair at the root, causing the sev- eral diseased conditions of the hair till 1t finally falls out. Modern science has dis covered a remedy to destroy the ,dandruff microbe, which is combined in Newbro's s Herpicide, the delightful hair dressing.

STRICKEN BY tPoPLExY
N. l. Dawson Overcome by Stroke
of Apoplexy Thursday Evening
His Case is Serions.

Thursday evening N. L. Dawson,
cashier of the Mitchell National
bank, was Frustrated by a stroke of
appolexy. He had finished his work
in the bank at a little after 5
O'Clock and had gone up stairs to
the rooms. Mrs Dawson was read
ing to her husband while he was
sitting in a chair and she noticed a
queer expression on his face, occa-
stoned by the coming on of the
stroke. 1t was slight at first and
gradually spread. His entire right
side is %paralyzed and he is not able
to speak intelligibly. During the
night he seemed to get along we'll,
and slept the greater portion Of the
nlght. This morning he was in
much the same condition, and is
partially unconscious. The people
of the city were shocked beyond ex-
preston when the announcement
was made.
Mr.. Dawson attended to the busi-
ness Of the bank during the day and
did. not complain of feeling badly.
For the past year or more he has
been troubled quite a good deal with
neuralgia pains in the head, which
it is thought finally brought on
this attack.
