A WOMAN TO BE PRETTY
Must Have Luxuriant and Glossy Hair,
No Matter What Color.

The finest contour of female face,
the sweetest smile of a female mouth,
loses somethingsif the head is crowned
with scant hair. Scant and falling
hair, it is now known, is caused by a
parasite that burrows into the scalp
to the root of the hair, where it saps
the vitality. The little white scales
the germ throws up i'll burrowing are
called dandruff. To cure dandruff per
manently, then, and to stop falling
hair, that germ must be killed. New
bros Herpicide, an entirely new re-
suit of the chemical laboratory, de-
stroys the dandruff germ, and, of
course, stops the falling hair, and pre-
vents badness. Sold by leading drug
gists. Send 10 cents in stamps for
sample to The Herpicide company, De-
troit, Mich. Two sizes, 80 cents and
81. 7. H. Thomas, special agent.

SESSIONS BROUGHT TO CLOSE
Awards In the Corn Raising and Bread
Baking Contests Are Announced
at Evening Meeting.

The most successful county institute
held in recent years by the farmers
of this vicinity closed last evening at
Taylor Ridge. One of the final acts
was the adoption of resolutions con-
demning board of trade gambling and
the same will be forwarded to Con.
gresham Mckinney at Washington as
an expression of the sentiment of an
important contingent of his constitu.
ents. The evening program consisted
of an address on domestic science by
Mrs. Emily F. McCurdy of Moline
who substituted for Mrs Jennie c.
Barlow of Champaign, vocal solo by
Mrs. Allan Miller of Edgington and a
duet by Mrs. Miller and Miss Sarah
Richardson. also of Edgington, all OF
which were much appreciated.
The other feature of the evening
was the announcing of the award of
premiums for the corn and bread bak-
ing contests. i. |. Pearsall of Port
Byron, who has been a prize winner
at the last three Institutes in the
free-for-all corn contest, took first
premium again, while first honors in
the baking contest, open to all women
in the county, went to Mrs. John
Hofer of Taylor Ridge. There were IS
competitors in the latter contest and
eight in that for girls under IS years.
Mrs. Ashdown and Mrs WOODBURY. OF
Port Byron acted as judges in the
girls contest and these two and Mrs.
McCurdy in the other case.
j. HI. Martin of Morrison, H., was
the corn judge and he marked closely.
The score of the winning sample of
corn in the free-for-all class was 71.5

He held that too much money is being
expended for poor structures which,
in the case of wood last but 10 years
on an average. and in the case of
steel, are good for scarcely more than
twice that length of time. The prin-
Ciple of reinforced concrete was illus
trated and the speaker gave figures
showing that a bridge of this material
may be constructed at a first cost not
exceeding the cost of the ordinary
steel structure and that of replanking
it for 90 years. At the end of 20 years
the concrete bridge will be stronger
than when built, while the steel
bridge will be ready for the scrap
heap. Mr.. Older also urged the laying
of concrete floors on bridges where
the spans are short The first cost is
much less than the cost of replanking
VIII ultimately be, where a good steel
bridge is erected. Another element
in bridge building referred to was the
increased weight of the traction en-
gines which must cross them. A few
years ago these machines weighed on
an average but six tons Now they
weigh twice as much and many more
than three times as much. 1t will be
necessary to build the bridges of the
future to carry the weight of 25 tons
or more. Mr.. Older took a mild rap
at bridge combines and at the same
time argued that the highway COM
miSSiOnerS are not usually to blame
for they are not bridge experts and
have no means of compelling bona
fide competition, nor, in fact, of get
ting always what they contract for.
Mr. Older urged that the services
of bridge engineer be engaged when
an important structure was to be pur.
chased. The state commission fur

Practical Hog Raising.
c. w. Bridgeford of Joy, Mercer
county, a practical hog raiser and a
forceful speaker as well, gave the clos
ing address of the afternoon on THE
Care and Feeding of Swine" He re-
ferred to the hog as the mortgage
litter" and gave figures proving the
vastness of the industry of producing
the animal, the statistics showing up
far into the millions, Notwithstanding
swine are handled but once, while beef
and sheep generally pass through sew
eral hands before being transformed
into meat. The value of the hogs mar
keted at Joy in a year is 100000, and
this is only small station. Mr.. Bridge
ford said he had lost money on hogs
but once, and declared even at the
present prices the raiser should break
even. He picks good sows and keeps
them as long as they are useful. Two
filters of pigs are raised each year,
one being narrowed late in August and
the other in February. These are fed
TO the limit from the start and put on
the market as early as possible. BY
this method it is possible to sell them
mostly between April / and Oct /,
when the price almost Invariably aver
ages higher than in the other half of
the year. In cold weather Mr. Bridge
ford keeps stove in his hog house
when the pigs are young, and finds it
pays. He always gives plenty of wa
ter and feeds a balanced ration, as
nearly as possible. Clover hay is fed
in the winter and the porkers find it
palatable and stow away limited
amount of it with good results. Mr..
Bridgeford urged hog raisers to avoid
dust in their pens His plan is to
haul the dust out on the farm for use
as ordinary manure.

Delegation to Urge Council to Put OF
Ballot on Question Until Next

The proposition before the city coun-
Gil to submit to a vote the question of
raising the saloon license fee to 81 900
"a year was thoroughly discussed at a
meeting of the members of the Liquor
Dealers Protective association held
yesterday afternoon at the Turner
hall. While the dealers took no formal
action on the matter it was decided
to have a delegation of the saloon
Keepers present Monday evening at
the meeting of the city council, when
the ordinance providing for an cleo
ton is to be considered. The general
opinion of the liquor men as expressed
at the meeting yesterday, is that the
proposition is thrust upon them too
suddenly, and it is expected that the
delegation will urge that the matter
be not submitted TO the people until
later in the year The ordinance now
before the council calls for an election

Want "a Years Time.
The liquor men claim that they
should have more time to prepare
themselves to meet the additional fee
Of $500 a year. 1t is pointed out that
i'll Moline the $1,000 license will go
into effect at the same time as it will
in Rock Island in the event the prop
osition is voted on here in February
and carried. Assuming that the prop
osition will carry, the saloon men
maintain that they are given two
months in which to prepare TO double
the amount of the fee they must pay,
While i'll Moline the dealers have had
several times as long period. In
Moline the carrying of the proposition
was followed by the discontinuance of
the free lunch, reductions in the size
of drinks and other measures.
These arguments and others will be
advanced before the council in an eff
fort to have action on the ordinance
for an election delayed.

Two Questions on Which There Was an Expression at Hot Springs Yes terday.

Hot Springs, Aug. 22-Just what Mir. Tafts views are regarding the revision of the tariff were incident ally expressed by him today. If elected" he said, q shall call the siXty-first congress together in extra ordinary session to revise the tariff at the very earliest moment I have the authority to do so. l consider such action an obligation under the tariff plank of the republican plat form"
 Postmaster General Myer, who came here yesterday for a week k-end visit with Taft allowed himself to be quoted in this statement: "I believe Governor Hughes will be renomin- ated"
 Myer, who was recently at Oyster Bay in conference on the New York situation, indicated that he based his opinion on information gathered there. although he said Roosevelt's intention was to take no action in the matter. Tt is a political situa ton which I believe will work itself out naturally" he said

Death Calls Former Cover
 nor N. 0. Murphy
The End of the Career of One Ot AriZOna's Most Distinguished Citizens.

Former Governor Nathan Oakes Murphy, died yesterday at Coronado. California, after a continued illness of about two years, the immediate cause of death being hemorrhage of the stomach The news came to Phoenix yesterday afternoon in a telegram and became at once a topic of public com ment and the occasion of universal re- gret. Though it was known that he was in poor health, a condition in which little hope of improvement might be cherished, no particularly alarming symptoms nor hint of his early demise had been reported here. The news of his death was therefore quite sudden and unexpected even to his most intimate friends. Mrs. Mur- phy was at his bedside when the end came both having but recently gone to Coronado from Colorado where they spent the greater part of the summer.
 For almost the span of a generation N. O. Murphy was prominent in the affairs of Arizona, both in connection with industrial enterprises and in pub lie life He was universally popular even with those whose political oppo- SlllOH lO HlIH WdS pIOhouHCeu anu uH- changeable. He was always recOgniz- ed as a man of warm friendships. faithfulness to those in whom he trusted and the fairest of opponents in all controversies, good fighter and a magnanimous foe. In his passing there will be sincere and general mourning. in respect to his memory the flags on the public buildings were yesterday placed at half staff At this concerning funeral arrangements or the place of interment.
 To write the record of N. O. Mur- phy in it's fulness would require a re- cital of the history of Arizona for the past quarter of a century. for little of enduring importance has occurred either politically or industrial " in which he has not in some manner been either directly or indirectly interested, or in fluential by his approval and encour- agement. In biographical outline however the following gives an inti- nation of the activity of his life work:
 N. O. Murphy was born in Lincoln county, Maine in 1S49 and moving to Wisconsin spent his young manhood as a teacher in the public schools. He came to Arizona in 1883 to engage in mining with his brother Frank NJ Murphy. now president of the Santa Fe. Prescott and Phoenix railroad company. His first connection with the official life of the territory dates

and the convention adjourned until 2 o'clock.
 Thus far the meeting was quite for nal as well as harmonious It remained for the afternoon session to develop that signal enthusiasm which has so Ollincusly clouded the democratic horizon. The great question of "who will It be?' was on the lips of all, even the delegates, for several gentlemen had been suggested and there was ap- parent strength behind them all Prob ably the possible candidate mos fre- quently referred to was General A J. Sampscn for whom the Maricopl dele sa.iOn had been strenuOuslv working with appreciable gains in various or tho counties and even until the n0cn recess there was a quite general eX- pectatiOn that he would be n0.. ratcd fer delegate. But when the members of thc Ccnven: ST met after Iunca=o1 a caucus was sUs gested as the more expeditions way of canvassing the sit uatiOn and arriving at the sentiment of the convention after which Its work would be carried out with that regu- larity and felicitous dispatch for which republican conventions are justly fam ous. For the purpose of a caucus the entire membership of the convention retired to the parlors of the Ford ho- tel. 1t is said that within the caucus there was never a test vote but a friendly conference on the question of the most available candidate and though the friends of the general re- mained steadfast and were gaining in strength, they had his interests fully in their keeping and with his willing consent endorsed the sentiment of others who settled upon Mir. Cameron as a dark horse who would be accept able to the delegations from every county, eliminating all suggested con- ditiOns of compromise between aspir- ants and managers and presenting united and harmonious front.
 At about 2:30 o'clock the delegates filed back into the convention hall and Temporary Chairman Clark called for the reading of the report of the ere dential committee. That was formally and unanimously adopted as also was the report of the committee on perma- nent organization and order of busi- ness WHICH named w. r. MCNdlF OL Bisbee as chairman, John DOan of Tucson as secretary and F. $. Breen .of Flagstaff as assistant secretary.
 MT Clark in relinquishing the chair made a quite lengthy and a most in teresting address. He thanked the convention and the people of Phoenix, especially the ladies present, and then paid his respects in glowing terms to the great leaders of the party from the time of it's birth to the present. day, dwelling upon the achievements of Lincoln and Mckinley and the present chief magistrate who has been the dominating influence in the party man agement of recent years. He followed with placing their accumulated mantles
