Why HAIR TURNS GRAY.
Various Theories Accounting for the
Sudden OIL Gradual
Change.

The color of the hair depends on 1T
tie granules, which can be seen if the
hair be examined under d powerfni
microscope. Sometimes, says st. Mich
olas, the hair may become white il a
night. Brown-Sequard tells us that
when he was 10 years old his beard
turned white in two days. This took
place when he was perfectly well and
without any especial cause. Sometimes,
however, sorrow OF. illness produces TIE
change earlier in life than it would
usually take place. AS to the cause,
some have said that the hair becomes
filled with small air-particles which
make it look gray; others have said
that the outer part of the hair becomes
altered so that it is like ground glass
and you cannot see the color. But a
man by tho name of M%etchnikoff tells
us that the real reason is because small
movable bodies in the hair devour the
grains of coloring matter and move them
to the root of the hair. Sometimes
poisons in disease. or some results of
sorrow, bring about an effect upon these
small migrating bodies ~(cells), causing
them to become active in the above fash
ion. That is said to be the reason why
the hair grows gray.

MITCHELL IS
STILL DEFIANT
President Says Miners Will Not

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind. March %
The joint conference of the coal min
ers and operators of the central com
petitive district has adjourned until
this afternoon. with no apparent set
Element of their wage differences in
prospect.
\ motion to continue the present
scale for two years made by the OPP
orators was defeated by the solid vote
of the miners. An amendment to
President Mitchell's motion to restore
the scale of 1903. offered by +. l.. Rob
bins of the Pennsylvania operators. to
make the restored schedule effective
for two years was accepted by Mr..
Mitchell. subject to ratification by the
national miners convention. which
will consider the question.
This was the only action taken dur
ing the day. The rest was argument,
during the course of which great ear
nestness on the part of the miners and
both factions of the operators was
shown. President Mitchell charged
that many coal companies are owned
J by railroads. and the profit on coal is
not indicated by the books of the coal
companies. as much of it is absorbed
by the railroads.
He announced that the miners would
continue in the future TO ask for more
wages if the market justified and stat
ell positively that the miners would

Answering arguments against an ad-
vance, Mr.. Mitchell closed the debate
with the following statement:
"The miners. so far as we are con-
cerned. in case of a strike. will have
no riots and no bloodshed. We may.
if a prolonged strike takes place. have
hunger, and we may wear poorer
clothes. We may endure greater hard
ships, but the miners are Just as law
+. abiding and Just as patriotic as are
the gentlemen on your side
Mr.. Robbins in his offer to pay the
advance called the attention of the 9TH

made no concessions.

NEW ERA MARKED IN
 CONGO FREE STATE
RICH EXPLOITATION BY KING
 LEOPOLD IS ENDED-AMERIC
 ABLE CONCESSIONS IN WORLD.

New York, November 2O-The an- nouncement from Brussels yesterday that concessions had been granted to American companies to exploit India rubber re- sources, to conduct mining operations, and to construct railroad in the Congo Free State. was verified.
 The concessions it was said were prob ably the most valuable ever granted in the world. The rubber business is to be handled by the American Congo com rany, which was incorporated at Albany about a week ago.
 The chief stockholders are the Wassen- Ryan, the Guggenheim, John D. Rocke- feller, Jr.. and Edward B. Aldrch. son of Senator Aldrich. The details of the management of the mining business in the Congo Free State will not be made , known until the Belgian parliament takes i action, but d separate company in which Harry Payne Whitney will have an inter- l est with the men already named, will l be organized for mining operations
 The concessions mean, it is said here 1 the end of the exploitation of the Congo Free State by King Leopold which made the King and many of his subjects very wealthy.

RUSSIAN PEASANTS ROBBED.
Press Charges Minister of the Interior
 With Interest In the Crime.

St. Petersburg. November 20.-A scan- dal in connection with the distribution of government funds for the relief of the famine-stricken provinces entailing the purchase of great quantities of grain Is being aired in the liberal press, which charges that contract for s5,O00,0o0 worth of wheat at a price of cents per bushel above the market rate was given to an obscure individual, named Iidval. hereto fore not connected with the grain trade, and whose only claim was his private friendship with M. Gurko, vice minister of the interior, who is in charge of the fam he relief.
 It is insinuated that Ldval was merely a street bidder, acting for Gurko, that tine profits were divided; that Lidval received an advance of s4OO,O0O and shipped an in- significant quantity of grain to the peas- ants, who were facing starvation.
 It is officially explained that tine delay in shipment of grain was due to the ina bility to secure cars, but the other details of the accusation have not been refuted.

St. Petersburg, November 2O.-Since his return to Russia Count Witte has been showered with abuse and attacked on all sides.
 campaign to discredit him and pre- vent his ever returning to power is open ly in progress
 The socialist press has given him the lie direct on the subject of his declara- 1ion that he had no communication with hhe workngmens council during his pre- miership, and high officials of the gov Iernment are furnishing material for at tacks upon him.
 The reaetionary papers are filled with articles abusing the count, among the mldest terms employed being "stupen- dous liar" traitor to the fatherland,' and political and financial cardsharper. sThe voice of M. koValeVsky in the Strana is the only one raised in the for mer premier's support.
 He says Witte is undoubtedly the clever est man in the government camp ant that abuse is dictated by fear that hi. star may again be in the ascendant
