MAY INDICT ROADS WHO, FAIL
TO CUT FARE.

Raleigh, N. c., July 9.-Judge B.
F. Long, of the state court, instructed
the grand jury yesterday to indict
every violater of the new law fixing
the minimum charge Of transport
ing passengers on railroads in North
Carolina, exceeding 60 miles in
length, at 21-4 cents pr mile, and
providing a penalty of $500 for ev-
cry violation and making it an in
dictable misdemeanor for any agent
of the railroads to demand or charge
greater rate.
Judge Long expressed the opinion
that no court has jurisdiction in in
dictments except the superior courts
of North Carolina, and that if the
state superior and supreme court
should hold the act not repugnant
to the federal constitution, the fed
eral supreme court could re-examine
the decision upon writ of error at

As many more voters as possible
will be interviewed by THE HER
AID next week, and it is hoped
that enough affirmative replies may
be secured to insure the success of
the bond issue. So far, the result
is indeed encouraging. Only one
person has declined to express an
opinion, and only two have been
unfavOrable to the bond issue. one
which is not decisive either way.

cuRFEW LAW HITS WOMEN.
Indian Territory Teachers Rebel at
Nine O'Clock Order.

Muskogee, /. I've won't stand
It! Let them go and get old maids
If they want old maid school teach
ers," said a petite young school
teacher to a group of her fellow teach
ers, and she stamped her foot when
she said It.
This was all because the school
board has applied the curfew law to
school teachers of Muskogee. From
Tulsa and McAlester comes informa-
ton that the school board at each
place has made a similar order.
The boards of education in these
towns have decided that the teachers
in the public schools must cut society
FIVE nights out OF the week at least.
The boards have given il out that they
do not expect to see the teachers out
after nine o'clock at night through the
school week. and they do not add that
the teachers are at liberty the other
nights.
This order has created a storm in
the towns mentioned. Some of the
teachers are in open rebellion. and
say they will go where they please
and when. and some of them have
done so, but it is noticed they are
waiting with some apprehension for
the next meeting of the board.

FEELS PAIN IN BURIED HAND.
Relief Comes When Fingers Are Elk
humed and Strengthened Out.

Gallipolis, O.-The case of Robert
Wolf of Couch, w. Va. is another link
in the theory that the several mem
bers of the human body do not rest
painlessly in the grave unless put
away in a perfectly natural position.
Mr.. Wolf, while out hunting, shot his
right hand, mangling it badly. Doc
tors from Point Pleasant were sum
moned and amputated the hand above
the wrist The member was buried,
but for some time afterward the in.
jured man was restless and could not
Sleep and was worried. He did not
complain about his arm hurting him,
but said that his hand panied him
very much. He showed his relatives
with his left hand the shape his right
hand was in when it was buried.
The pain increasing, and Mr. Wolf
still complaining. Mr.. Phillip Wolf. a
brother, and another went to the place
where the hand was buried. dug up
the box, and found the hand cramped
in exactly the position described by
Mr.. Wolf. The fingers were carefully
Strengthened out and the hand placed
back in the box in such manner that
there was no pressure anywhere and
reburied. The injured man at once
became easier and said that his hand
did not hurt him except for slight
feeling above the thumb.
Physicians explain that the sensa,
ton of a severed arm or foot being in
place, when In fact 1t is cut off and
buried is caused by the nerves at the
end of the wound. They do not ex-
plain, however, how a man may think
his fingers hurt him when he no longer
has them.

Something Like Jumping.

The best story of a horses jumps
which comes to mind is that of Cal
ifornia cowboy. He was taking steers
to Leadville, and had camped for the
night on Bear river, near its conjunc.
ton with the Little Snake. In the
middle of the night something oc-
Cured to stampede the cattle. The
man mounted his bronco and rode
hither and thither on the flank of the
herd until their fright had died away.
Four or five times the rider felt his
horse give tremendous leaps, and with
daybreak he discovered the cause
The cattle had climbed TO level
plateau which is intersected by
canyon four miles long and from 1900
to 1000 feet deep. It's walls incline
toward each other at the top, where
the distance is Is or 20 feet. In riding
the man had kept the steers circling
about this plateau. A dozen of them
he found had fallen down the canon
and been killed.
Hoof marks showed him that the
great jumps made by his horse were
occasioned by the animals clearing
the canyon each time II came to the

HAD PLAYED GAME BEFORE.
Little Clarence and Gwendoline As
tonished Whist Club.

The Friday afternoon whist club
had assembled at the home of one OF
its leading spirits when it was discov-
cred that two members were absent.
and therefore there were two hands
short. The ladies were in "A quandary
till the hostess announced that her
two children-Clarence, aged II. and
Gwendoline, aged l3-had picked up
little knowledge of the game from
watching their elders.
She suggested that as il wouldn't
do TO call the game off after SO many
had taken the trouble TO come, and as
she could think of no other way 10
get two substitute hands, the TWO chill
dren would at least help TO fill out
the tables-that is, If everyone was
perfectly agreeable.
Just the thing" declared all the
ladies in chorus. The hostess was
urged TO bring them in at once, every
ore would be just delighted.
Clarence and Gwendoline were duly
summoned and introduced They
took their seats modestly, the ladies
promised 10 assist them on knotty
points, and the game commenced.
There were two prizes offered and
both were of considerable value.
Every woman present made up her
mind to have one of those prizes at
any cost. The game was entered into
with abandon and no quarter was
shown TO anyone.
So far from needing any assistance
Clarence and Gwendoline seemed To
hold their own pretty well. In fact,
they seemed so perfectly at home
that when in the stress of excitement
member failed 10 adhere strictly To
the rules Clarence would call atten-
ton TO the error gravely and GwendO-
line with ladylike dignity. The upshot
OF the game was that when the after
noon was over and the final count
was made Gwendoline and Clarence
were in the possession of both prizes.
The ladies took leave of their host
ess in a body with profuse thanks for
the pleasant afternoon, all declaring
they had had just the loveliest time.
and she had been so sweet to them
all, they really must thank her again.
But as the door closed after the
last smile and goodby, there was an
ominous silence in the ranks of the
Friday afternoon whist club.
How nice to have children who
can play whist SO WELL" said one
lady sweetly, with a small CLEAN in
her eye.
Isn't it," agreed another. 1t must
must be so nice to be able to buy
lovely prizes and then keep them in
the family"
And there was scarcely any sar-
casm ia her voice at all

Vaseline as a Hair Grower.

Plain vaseline, the yellow product.
rubbed into the scalp nightly or sew
eral times a week will prevent your
hair from coming out and also induce
new growth. 1t is not new remedy,
but the petroleum has a wonderful eff
feet on the growth of the hair. Many
OF the Irish girls who come to this
country with such fine heads of hair
owe the growth to kerosene, which is
favorite remedy for strengthening
the hair follicles in Ireland. But as
that is unpleasant to use, the vaseline
comes next in order, possessing much
the same properties.
