Wear Artificial Eyebrows.

Artificial eyebrows have been
made occasionally for years past"
said a welknown wig maker. but
lately they have Grown very popular.
A face without eyebrows lacks express
sion or character. and many women
realize this. Others. having lost the eve.
brows through fra or sickness. wear
artificial eyebrows until the new ones
appear. Others again, wear artificial
eyebrows FOR time, only to become
tired OF and reject them.
"A well.made artificial eyebrow will
escape detection. as rule. but such
ar eyebrow Is too delicate to stand
rough usage. and soon wears out or
becomes unsightly. Many people grow
weary OF the recurrent necessity aud
expense OF replacement. But the pret.
ty woman who once wears artificial
eyebrows, like the man half OF whose
mIstsche has been destroyed in some
manner, finds real frieud In the arti.
cial eyebrow"

Chairman John r. Winship. Of the

The letter follows:

Dear Sir:-Nearly two years ago, on

some good was accomplished.
Early In the spring OF this year I
was approached by friends OF reform,
who asked me 10 again become a can

in connection with my school are

STATE TAKES ON NEW LIFE.

IL would appear that after 80 years
OF indifferent existence and an almost
standstill population Nevada Is again
20 come into its own. Gold doomed
Nevada; there are stu several OF the
best paying mines in the world there.
But these properties are In the hands
OF limited corporations, and for years
the state has been a poor field for
prospectors. But nature works things
out better than economies. Copper is
now what promises to bring Nevada
TO the front. AS Colorado rather went
out or mining for farming Nevada
promises 10 stop chasing the golden
dream for copper. A great district OF
this mineral has been discovered, In
and around the little town OF Ely in
White Pine county. which. by the
way, IA about the size OF the state or
Massachusetts,, or $500 square miles.
There Is no incentive for sensational
figures, for there Is in sight 10000
10000 pounds OF pure copper, $1,000
100000 in silver and 40O,OO0,O 900 I'm
gold. The Bullfrog mine. which has
DttA Ny - TIC
largest. The district promises to rival
some OF the Alaskan fields, the money
exchanges for property during March
exceeding those OF all the rest OF Ne
vada six times over. Comparatively
speaking the gold and silver values
are low 10 he ton, but the immensely
OF the output makes them average
with higher values. Copper. however.
is the king and its value runs very
high.
Ely is n typical new mining dis
trict. Three banks have been char
tered and three railroads are heading
for the territory. one will be finished
TO the camp within few weeks. and
prospectors end business men are ar
irving in numbers daily II Is be-
lleved that the biggest mining boom
in the west since the Leadville excite
ment in 1878 is on.

DISCUSSION OF RATE BILL
Anti-Pass and Commodity Amend

Grounds in the Senate.

Washington The senate Monday
discussed the conference report on the
railroad rate bill for more than four
hours. but did not dispose OF IL. IL
was made evident, however. that an
other conference will be ordered.
The discussion dealt entirely with
the anti-pass and commodity amend
nIents. 70 both OF which objection was
made on various grounds. Senator
spooner expressed the opinion that
under the pass provision as reported
senator's and members Of the house OF
representatives would not be prohibit

senator's construed part Of the proyis-
ion as in the interest OF dlscrimina-

Tillman and IodEc sharply criticized

JACKSON PRISON.
Are the Prisoners Resentful OF Whole
some Disciplined Seems SO.

The recent fire In Jackson prison
the fourth within as many months
adds 10 the conviction that the con-
vlcts are endeavoring 10 burn the prls-
on piecemeal, In retaliation for the de-
privation OF privileges under the Arm
strong regime.
The wagon shop was first burned to
the ground. entailing a big loss. Then
followed fires In the tailor shop, In the
engine room, and last the shop OF the
Trade Table Co
The last fire broke out at noon as
the conyicts were being marched TO
the dining room for the midday meal
II originated I'm the packing room OF
the factory. where the chairs. which
are principal product OF the company,
are prepared for shipment. Before IL
was brought under control II had de-
stroyed probably $4,000 worth or stock
tent OF $1,000.
Warden Armstrong has been draw
Ing the lines Of discipline very much
closer AZ the prison. lie has proceeded
on the theory that good conduct cannot
be purchased by privileges, that lib
eral treatment should lrst be earned
by good conduct before 1t was grant
cd. Some prisoners have taken excep-
tions TO this attitude and there has
been more or less trouble.
The new warden has stood firm, has
administered the affairs OF the ingtltu-
ton on a strictly non.partisan basis, so
far as the employment OF officials Is
concerned. and has been doing his
utmost to carry out the ideas he CON
siders necessary for the well-being OF
the institution.
SO far he has declined 10 talk for
publication. but II Is generally known
that he believes there are good many
things In connection with the admins
tration OF the prison which require
radical revision.
There Is no direct evidence that the
fires have been set by prisoners. but
the circumstantlal evidence is pretty
strong Those who know the warden
best believe that the manifestations
OF characterization will have but one
effect Mr. Armstrong Is not wholly in
accord with the rule OF the board abol.
ishing corporal punishment, II Is be-
lieyed and Il may be that the strap
will find It's way back to the prison
II discipline cannot be maintained in
any other way. II Il not to be inferred
that as a general thing the prison Is
now lacking I'm discipline, but with
several hundred prisoners working In
shops II Is difficult to guard against
the vindictiyeness OF a few prisoners
who perhaps believe they can force
more liberal rules.
