A w ONDERFUL INVENTION.

It is interesting to note that for
 tunes are frequently made by the in- vention of articles of minor impor- tance. Many of the most popular de-
 vices are those designed to benefit the people and meet popular conditions, ana one of the most interesting of these that has ever been invented is the Dr White Electric comb, patented January l, 1899. These wonderful combs positively cure dandrua, hair falling out, sick and nervous head aches, and when used with Dr Whites Electric hair brush are positively guar anteed to make straight hair curl, in p days time. Thousands of these electric combs have been sold in vsri- ous cities of the Union, and the de- mand is constantly increasing. Our agents are rapidly becoming rich sell on sight. Send for sample.

place of about 5000 inhabitants, and one that would be remarkably pleasant as residence location.
 Santa Cruz, Cal, March IA, 1904. Left Palo Alto at about 8 this morn- ing. and stopped of at Santa Clara, where we spent most of the morning. It is pretty little town as California towns go, with one fair sized business street and many outlying residence streets. It is in the heart of the great fruit growing district of. the Santa Clara valley, and we spent our whole morning on train, and in the town be- tween blossoming acres of peach, al- mond and plum; also pears, whose buds are just swelling and look almost ready to burst. At Santa Clara we changed to the narrow guage mountain railroad, that brings us down through the midst of the coast mountains, winding for hours along the sides of steep hills, the mountains towering hundreds of feet above us, and 50 feet below the rushing waters of some mountain stream. At first nearly all the trees were live oak, but the red woods soon appeared, and much of the latter part of the ride they lowered thickly on both sides. These are not the sequia gigantea, or true big trees, but their first cousins. The real "big tree" grows farther back from the coast, about in line with the Yosemite, and are inaccessible before May, at the earliest, so, as we can't get the best, we may as we'll put up with the second best. Tomorrow we intend going out to the big tree grove, about six or eight miles from here. We may leave here Wednesday,-Thursday at the latest.

 A. c. Lake, Dear Friend: feel like trying to give you and other friends some idea of the truth of the doings in this state of which the East seems to be 'mfsinformed and unjustly criti- cal. refer to the trouble which grew out of the strikes, and the false state ments that are purported to come from the side of unionism and its adherants
 Cripple Creek has been known as a union mining camp. Some 10 months ago . smelter, situated in Colorado City, run as a non-union plant, or rather as an open plant, found that about one half of its men were union and an ef- fort was made to unionize the whole outfit. The result was a strike and non-union men were assaulted, and one who lived in my tenant house was nearly killed. Our sheriff put guards around the mill, and after some weeks the strike was proving a failure and the Federation of Labor called a strike in Cripple Creek in order that no ore could be furnished to supply the smelter. The miners, the most of them, did not want to go out, but the

no other reason can be given for his
rash deed. He was in his room all the
morning and had been suffering con-
siderable pain. Anoise was heard by
his mother who sent his father to the

Tyler found his son on the bed with a
