Black Hair Strongest.

Black hair is stronger than golden
tresses and will sustain almost double
the weight. Recently a German scien-
list has been experimenting and has
found that it is possible to suspend d
weight Of four ounces by q single hair,
provided the hair be black. Blond hair
will give way at varying weights, de-
pendent upon the exact tint. A yellow
hair will scarce support two ounces, a
brown will hold up three without
breaking, while very dark brown will
sustain an additional half ounce.
The greater vitality of the black hair
is declared to be the reason for the pre-
ponderance of blond bald heads, and,
according to this experimental, per-
son with jet black hair will still enjoy
a full growth while the blond will have
been bald for seven and half years.

of the Document.

Picking, Dec. %. The Chino-Jap.
anese treaty was signed Friday by
Baron Komura and NJ. Uchida in be-
half OF Japan, and Prince Ching and
Viceroy Yuan7Shi-Kai in behalf of
China. The Chinese commissioners
say the treaty relates solely to Man

OF ChlnO-Japanese alliance are false.
Washington, Dec 29.-Important de.
tails of the treaty between China and
Japan signed at Picking have reached
the state department. by cable China
consents to lease to Japan the Lao
tung peninsula, at the southern ex-
tremity of which is Port Arthur and
Dalny. This territory formerly was
held by Russia under lease from
China. China comedies to Japan the
control of the railway on the PENN
sula northWard as far as Changchin.
This is one of the spurs which con,
meets with the Russian Siberian rail-
way system, and the point named
probably will mark the division be.
tween Russian and Japanese control
China also comedies to Japan the
right to build railway from Antung,
on the Yalu river, to Mukden, the an
cient capital of Manchuria, probably
along the line Of the famous old mill.
tary or caravan road. 1t is provided,
however, that at the end of certain
period the road may be purchased by

DEFEAT FOR EK- GOVERNOR
oDELL LOSES PARTY CONTROL
IN COUNTY CONTEST.
Herbert Parsons Elected President of
Committee for the Coming Year
After Long Struggle.

! New York, Dec. 23.-During a con-
Thursday night until nearly four
o'clock Friday morning, marked at
times by bitter denominations but con-
Guiding with mutual pledges of sup
port, the control of the New York
county Republican committee was
Gov. Benjamin B. Odell by the faction
headed by Herbert Parsons. In reor-
ganizing for the coming year the COM
mittee elected Herbert Parsons to the
presidency in succession to William

president, julius G.. Kramer of the
Fourth assembly district; secretary,
Thomas H. Whittle, Of the Thirty
fifth district; treasurer, George Blag-

The election of Mr.. Parsons was Sc,
cured at 2:35 o'clock in the morning.

received with wild enthusiasm. Mr..
Halpin Immediately congratulated Mr..
Parsons and in brief speech prom
ised him his hearty support. Mr.. Par

! chairman of the state Republican COM
mittee, talked briefly with the news
paper men Friday about the action of
the Republican county committee. He
said: "Politics are like hurdles.
Sometimes you clear them and some
times you do not. When you trip over
one you have got to get up with a
stiff upper lip and a stiff neck. and
that is how I am. It is like a mince
pie which tastes very we'll and goes
down easily, but it remains to be seen
whether Parsons will be able to digest
his. | have not another word to saw

LIFE IN PENANG,
The Misery and the Discomforts of
the Rainy Season.


A resident of Penang thus describes
the rainy season there: "Our rains have
set in with all their attendant comforts
and discomforts, and they make one
feel something like Robinson Crusoe
when he made up the list Of his bless
ings and evils The planters are all re-
joicing and are putting out their seed
lings and cuttings and generally doing
all they should do The bullocks are
beginning to fill out those ugly hollows
between their ribs and about their
tanks, for the grass on their limited
pastures is growing rich and rank, and
these patient, half starved beasts profit
by it. Our trees have all put on new
coats of brilliant green, and the whole
place wears a newly washed appear
ance, very comforting after the dusty,
dry season in which our soup tastes
gritty and a piece of breas and butter
seems to have had bit of sandpaper
glued on the butter side. But even our
rains have their disadvantages.
'When I come honA. thoroughly wet
and disguised with everything, and go
to bed Immediately after dinner, the
roof commences to leS1, and have to
get out and shift the bed I interview
the landlord in the morning, and he
tells me roofs can't be repaired in the
rain and that in all probability as soon
as the tiles swell the roof will become
water tight OF it's own accord. That
doesn't cure either my lumbago or
rheumatism. and when I take my bath
I discover we are on the Alder Itam wa
ter service and have to battle in pea
soup.
Il mention the fact to the municipal
president over a stengah at the club,
and he says, My dear boy, I'm on the
same service and have been combins
mud out Of my hair for a week This
doesn't make me feel any cleaner. The
lizards on the ceiling are waxing fat
from the insects which are driven into
the house by the rain, and I notice that
the soup at dinner seems to have more
body in it from the same cause This
does not improve my temper &C
