How to Care For Children's Hair.
 Mothers should teach their girls to care for their hair as early as possible. says the New York World. If q girl is coaxed into the habit of giving her locks hundred strokes with clean brush every morning and every even ing and brafding them loosely for bed, the foundation for future beautiful head of hair will be laid. Too many children are allowed to go to bed with their hair In a tousled 0Edltion, only when school time comes round. Such a practice is disastrous to the nerves of a sensitive child and ruinous to the hair. Never allow one child to use the others hairbrush.

NEW YORK, Nov. 25.-StartIins ir-

the accounts of the second greatest
bank I'm the world-the National Bank
of Commerce, commonly known In
financial circles as j. p. Morgan's-
the capitalization of which Is S25,OOO,-

fOrty-twO men-thfrty regularly en-
plOyed clerks and the other twelve
expert accOuntants-were working
over the books to discover the extent
of the defaIcntions and pecuIations.
The loss, which will amount to many
thousands of dollars, will not be known
positively until the work of the forty
two men now prying into the books
is completed.
1t was learned tonight that since
last Friday afternoon there has been
detained secretly in the Tombs a clerk
who has been in the employ of the
circulation department of the bank
This clerk is Bernard Mann. He is
"A years old and lives in Brooklyn
with his parents. Within the past few
months the young man had led a dizzy
life in his neighborhood and is said
to have lost thousands at gambling.
The nightly discrepancies in the
certifcation department of the Morgan
Bank had been quietly noted for some
time by those higher up in the estab-
lishment but it was not until Friday
that Assistant Cashier Joseph j. Byrnes
Jr. found the source of Mann's pros

Byrnes watched the banking house
of Barring & Co., and personally saw
Mann hand overFa stolen and forged
check. This check had come through
the Morgan bank, drawn on Barring &

Byrnes had a private detective with
him. They approached Mann. and after
stammering and making vain attempt
TO explain he broke down and made a
confession. His admissions account in
a large measure for the discrepancies
in the bank, which have become so OBJ

SEATTLE. Nov. 25.-Direct wireless
communication was established tonight
between the Puget Sound navy yard
and the naval station at Mare Island,
Cal, when Rear Admiral William T.
Burwell, commandant at Bremerton.
notified Rear Admiral Henry w. Lyon.
commandant of the California station,
of the arrival of the Government tug
Sotoyome. This gives assurance of
greater security to navigation on the
Pacific Coast, according to Admiral
Burwell.
For two weeks past the stations at
Bremerton and Mare Island have been
trying to get into communication with
each other. That there was a possi-
bility of communication being estab-
lished was discovered by mere chance.
Admiral Burwell at Bremerton was
with the United States
cruiser Boston on her way to San
Francisco. When the vessel neared
Port Townsend communication with
her was lost, and all subsequent ef-
forts to reach her were unavailing.
But for the fact that portion of one
of the messages intended for the Bos-
ton was caught by the instrument at
Mare Island, it is probable that COM
munication between that point and
Bremerton would not have. been es-
tablished for months and possibly
years to come. An attempt will now
be made to establish communication
between Tatoosh Island at the entrance
to the Straits of Juan de Fuca and

Driscoll knows all the details of
the transactions to which Abe
Ruef and evil resorts were par
ties. Driscoll vanished for time
and caused great uneasiness
among the detectives on the staff
of Special Agent Burns, but after
diligent search he has been To-
Gated and is now under surveil-
lance. At the proper moment he will
be produced before the Grand Jury
During the investigation into the at
fairs Of the house Of shame at s12 Pa
CHE street witnesses testihed that Dris-
coll shared the profits. Driscoll was
the representative OF the administra-
tion on the board of directors. While
he had an interest in the place, he
also acted as a sort of agent for Ruef

share OF the tainted coin Ruef has

some time In Chicago. first as a book
maker and later as tenderloin figure
With the election of Mayor Schmitz he

took these girls out to theaters. He
was just romantic, they say, and al
