SAYS MANY WOMEN ARE BALD.
Hairdresser Refutes Idea Which Has
Become General.

"Why is it men get bald and women
don't?"
At this question the hairdresser
laughed
my dear SIR" he said, there are
quite as many bald women as men. In
more"
He pointed to the switches, curls,
fronts, fringes, and complete female
wigs in his window.
why should those things exist If
women didn't get bald?" he said. "The
hairdresser puts in all his spare time
in making false hair contrlvances, and
nine out Of ten of them are made for
women. Well, woman wouldn't wear
them II she didn't need them. would
she?
when man gets bald, he acknowl
edges frankly this injury that the
years have done him; he let's all the
world see his bare and hideous white
scalp. But when woman gets bald,
she brings up over her bald spot the
long locks above her ears and at the
back of her neck, and she further con-
ceals her badness with switch, or
false curls. or q fringe, or whatever
best suits her.
Yes, take a hardresser's word for
1t, woman's hair is no better than
man 's-there are as many bald wom-
en- as men-but woman hides her
badness, whereas man lets his be
seen"

He was about to deposit 1t on the

donor.
Please, sah,' he said, In low

NEGLECT OF DUTY
Superintendent oi Police Brlsgs
 Charges = Bremen 10 Report.

Commissioner Minor presided at the meeting of the board of public safety held yesterday. All the com missioners excepting T. s. Lewis were present. Mir Lewis sailed last Monday for a trip through the old countries. The half a dozea callmsn who were appointed at special meeting held last week wers all ap- pointed regular firemen aud were in- structed to report for duty before next Wednesday or Thursday On next Wednesday the board will off, cially inspect the Baldwin streot en' zine house. Tie inspection will take place at 4 o'clock and the contrac- tors, the architect and all connected in any respect with the building are expected to be on hand as It Is pro. posed to make the inspection most minute.
 Superintendent Beach brought a charge of neglect of duty against Supernumerary Patrick Horan and there will be an inquiry into tne nat ter next Wednesday afternocp before the board starts out to inspect the bdluWlu SlEetl euSluo HOuoc. II seems that as Horan was hastening to his work at Poli's thea.er one evening last week some mischievous young men and boys played the very deuce with the nice white dresses of half dozen women on Exchange place by smearing them with some black liquid. The charge states that the young men were seized and hand ed over to the policeman by some men, and that Horan released them The witnesses against the officer are D. B. Wilson and Charles H. h. gals.
 Some time ago there was talk of having the buttons on the police. mems uniforms changed. in order to carry out some idea of the board. After the matter was talked over 1t was voted to not make any change. This means saving of few dol lars to the cops.
 Some bills were approved and Superintendent Beach's monthly re- port of the business of the depart ment was accepted after which the meeting adjourned.

DOES NOT KILL
Startling Statement Made About
 Death Chair by Dr Gibbons.

UGdtu OlidlI uf 0I OluuVAos
 New York, Sept. 3.-"Not mur- derer whose body ever went to the grave from the death chairs in use in New York and New Jersey was ever killed by the electric current. Every one met death from the dis secting knives of the surgeons or were smothered in quick-lime with which their bodies were surrounded after their so-called deaths"
 This was the astonishing state- ment made here to-day by Dr Peter J. Gibbons, following the resuscita- tion of laborer supposedly killed by electricity in city manhole. Gib- bons is petitioning the state authort- ties for leave to resuscitate any crim- inal killed by the chair, mot" he says, because I want to embarrass the state but as means of proving that in the hundreds of accidental deaths by electric shock many a life now lost may be saved by prompt and intelligent treatment"
 In support of his contention Gib- bons cites the case of negro mur- derer, Taylor, whom, he says. came to life in Auburn prison after he had been killed" by electricity in the death chair.
 Taylor" the doctor declares. "came to life again and as the arm- ature of the dynamo had been burned out the prison physicians were forced to destroy his life by chloroform and by strychnine Fearful of public sentiment the government kept the ghastly secret for years, and it is only recently that 1t has been pub- lished in government reports"
 It is with the view of aiding gen. eral medical practice that Gibbons is moving to get permission to revive executed murderers.
 "A man killed by electricity" he declared. .'is simply parallel to the stopping of clock by arresting the motion of it's pendulum. Another push. often very slight one, will again start it ticking of time The man is no more dead than Is one who has been under water till his sensibil. ity has fled.
 .'In e9 out of 100 cases of death by electric shock animation may bs. and If physicians realized the sftuar ton would be restored"
