BLONDES DISAPPEARING.
fIaxen- Haired Man Soon Will be Curl
osity, Major Woodruff Says.

NEW YORK. Dec. 31.-That blondes
are disappearing and that in time none
save those that originated in the drug
stores will be seen, is the contention
which Major c. E. Woodruff of Platts-
burg will present to the American as
sOciatOn fOri the advancement of
science when it meets in Coluffbia uni
versity this week. Once upon time
when Americans were chiefly Anglo
Saxons, large majority were fair.
Now they are growing darker, even to
the extinction of the blonde type,
the major declares.
Blondes, according to the major. that
is blonde men. are rapidly disappear
ing from American life. Should the
process which is responsible continue
until checked, the time is not far dis
tant, when the fiaxen-haired man will
be curiosity.

The new schedule of in
surance rates for Walla Wal
la is printed and ready, but
will not 60 into effect, or be
made public, until the new
water pressure is turned on.
81 have no idea what the
reduction will be except that
it will be a reduction" said
Mr.. Jackson of Dice & Jack
son this morning. "It is en-
tirely against the policy of
the insurance men to give
out any inkling of what tie
rates will be until they a. e
ready to 60 into effect"
Mr.. Jackson said his COM
pany and several other in
surance men in town had
been delaying January re-
newals for two or three
weeks in the hope that the
new rates would 60 into ef-
feet.
|. :'We cannot waitany long
er now,'' he said, $50 will
write a large bunch OF ac-
cumulated business today.
We have been hoping every
day that the water would be
turned in.

to leave the 25 per cent on

derstood to have said that

new INSURANCE RATES READY;
AGENTS GUARD THEM SACREDLY

Walla Walla would have the
best water system in the
state when in operation.
It is hoped by insurance
men here that Walla Walla
will be put on what is called
Book 2, which is the best
rating outside of the very
largest cities in the country
which are on Book l. Seat
tie was recently put on Book
2. Spokane is trying to be
listed on Book 3, which will
put her on the same basis as
Walla Walla is now, but
considerably behind what
the new rate will be.
It is expected that the wa
ter from Mill creek will be
turned into the Walla Walla
mains within a couple of
days.

-Forty-fve and possibly so
passengers were killed in a
wrecked on the Baltimore &
Ohio early last night at Ter

this city, when the train
known as the Frederick spe-
cial and a train of eight pas
senger empties collided.
Eighty passengers were Sc
rlously hurt and a number
of these victims will die.
It has been most difficult
to ascertain the casualties
owing to the horribly man

Employees at the morgue
say that as near as they can
tell there are now "a bodies
there. Two were left in a
house at Terra Gotta and
four died at the hospitals
last night.
Five men, members Of the
crew of empties which ran
into the crowded special,
were arrested last night and
will be held on a charge Of
being responsible for the ca
tastrophe until the response

fixed. The inquiry will be
held at Baltimore, where all
the train records are kept.
Tells of Wreck Before Death.
Frederick Leigh, brake
man of the wrecked passen-

death he said, the train had

Lady Jane GREY.

Lady Jane Grey was the most learn
ed child Of which history has any rec
ord. Before she was nine years old
she wrote beautiful hand and was
able to play on many different instru-
ments: She could speak several Ian
guages, both ancient and modern, be-
sides being well grounded in philoso-
ply. When other children were plav-
Ing she would alnuse herself by read
ing writings Of the philosopher Plato in
the original Greek. Perhaps it was be-
cause she had led very lonely life
when she was child, as her mother
and father were often away at court
leaving her to the care of her govern
ess and her schoolmasters at the
gloomy family place called ERADICATE.
The big square house was built on the
edge Of great forest surrounded by
acres of uninhab ited land. There were
very few books and not any newspa-
pers at the castle, and Lady Jane Grey
had no rlaymates, as her governess
would not allow her to play with the
servants children, and there were no
others suitable for her companions
within miles. s. .:

Succumbed Today.

Mrs. Stella Jewett, who has
been a county charge since 1903,
when she was com mitted to the
Beltrami county poor farm from
Bemldji, died this morning, aged
Al. Mrs. Jewett was addicted to
the morphine habit and at the
time she was taken to the poor
farm was using large quantities
of the drug. She had become
addicted to the use of it to such
an extent that it was necessary
during all the time she was con-
fined at the poor farm to give her
regular doses of the drug. It is
believed that she has relatives in
California and the remains will
be held awaiting instructions
from these as to the disposition
of the body,

Transformation takes place in the shops

game and fish commission, for
authority to use nets in catching
the suckers from Lake Bemidji.
Mr.. Rutledge made the applica-
ton to the executive agent after
he had learned that the ckers
we're to be netted from Lake
Minnetonka, and it is very
probable that it will be allowed.
Suckers are without a doubt
the most destructive fish in the
lakes of northern Minnesota. It
is known that they live on the
spawn Of other fish, thereby de-
creasing the number of pike,
white fish, BASS, perch and
pickere], and it is almost neces.
sary in order to preserve these
varieties of game fish to kill off
the suckers in some way.
The work at Minnetonka will
be in cha1 &c of a game warden,
who will supervise the netting of
the suckers and see that no other
kind is taken, and Game Warden
Rutledge expects to add this
work TO his duties in connection
with the operations on Bemidi il
lake, providing his api l.cation is
allowed.
