Beautiful Hair at Small Cost

HAIR troubles. like many other diseases, have been wrongly diagnosed and altogether mis-
 understood The hair itself is not the thing to be treated for the reason that it is simply product of the scalp and wholly dependent upon its action. The scalp is the very soil in which the hair is pro duced, nurtured and grown, and it alone should receive the attention if results to be expected IL would do earthly good to treat the stem of plant with a view of making it grow and become more beautiful-the soil in which the plaLt grows must be attended to- Therefore, the scalp in which to expect it to grow and become more beautiful.
 Loss of hair is caused by the ssalp drying up. losing its supply of moisture nutrincnt; when badness occurs the scalp has simply los. all its nourishment. leaving nothing for the hair to feed upon Ga plant even tree would die under similar conditiors)
 The natural thing to do in either case is to feed and replenish the soil or scalp the case may be, and your crop will grow and multiply as nature intended it should.
 Knowiton's Oandernc has most wonder full effect upon the hair glands and tissues of the scalp. it is the only remedy for tho hair ever discovered that is similar to the natural hair foods or liquids of the scalp.
 It penetrates the pores quickly and the hair shows the effects of Its wonderfully exhilar- ating and life producing qualities.
 One 2S-cent bottle is enough to convince you of it's great worth hair growing and hair bcauti- lying remedy-trY it and sec for yourself.

Word had preceded him that he was to pass through and when the train arrived he found a baggage truck hauled up the steps of the car and the crowd clamoring for a speech. From this platform he assured his hearers that a great change was taking place in the central and middle western states, not based on party lines, he said, but due to the determination on the part of the great

$12,O00 DAMAGES
 AWARDED BY JURY

Brewton, October 2.-(Special.) )-The jury in the case of Perkins vs. the Louisville and Nashville Railroad company awarded the plaintiff s12,0O0 damages after being out some time yesterday This case has been in the courts since 1903, and this is the fourth time damages have been al- lowed, the amount being $5000 SIP, 900 $16,- 900 and s12,000 in the order mentioned at each of the trials. The supreme court has reversed and remanded the case in each of the three trials held in Butler county, where the alleged damage was incurred, the railroad securing a change of venue to this county
 It Is contended by those who are suing the railroad that Mr. Perkins, who was an elderly man, was carried by Georgana and that after looking up the conductor he was forcibly elected from the train by this official, and later died from the ef- fleets of pneumonia as a result of the ex- posture. The railroad company denies this assertion, and claims that Perkins fell from the train without their knowledge, the theory being that Perkins. after mo- ticing that he had passed his destination, started through the train to find the con ductor, and as he was on the platform of one of the coaches the train struck a curve, throwing the old man from the train
 An appeal will again be taken by the defendant company.

Some Excitement Is Caused In
 the Managers Office
INVESTIGATION OF AFFAIRS
Strenuous Denial Is Made That Any thing Is Wrong With Hitchcock's Work, But a Considerable
 Stir Has Been Made.

New York, October 2.-When it was re- ported here today that Secretary of State Elihu Root had visited republican na- tlonal headquarters last Wednesday and made inquiries regarding the working of the various departments under the na- tional committee, flutter of excitement was caused in political circles. The re- port went forth that Secretary Root had been sent by President Roosevelt because the President was not satisfied with the manner in which the campaign was being conducted. Secretary Root was credited with having returned to Washington and there expressed the conclusion that Ma tional Treasurer Sheldon was to blame for the tagging in the campaign, he hav- ing left to Chairman Hitchcock much of the business that should have been dis posed of by the treasurer's department.
 Treasurer Sheldon was not at his office this afternoon but Assistant George Terry said that the treasurers depart ment had no reply to make
 No confirmation of the reported pur- pose of Secretary Roots visit to national headquarters could be obtained It was said that Secretary Root was in this city Wednesday and that he called on Chairman Hitchcock at the Hotel Man haitian. He talked for some time with Secretary Root, principally of the speeches MT. Root is to make in this state.
 MT. Hitaheock Invited Mr. Root to na- tional headquarters to meet the various heads of departments and such mem- bers of the executive committee as were in the city. Mir Root went to headquarters later in the day. but 1t Is said that his visit was entirely informal.
 Speaking of the plans to raise funds for the national campaign MT. Hitch cock gave it as his opinion that in the future national campaign funds should be raised by the state committees instead of the national committee.
 Wade Ellis of Ohio was a visitor at national headquarters today. He said he had come to pay his personal respects to Chairman Hitchcock. Business brought him to the city. He said he had recently talked with President Roosevelt and that the President had expressed satisfaction over work accomplished by Mir Hitch cock.

Tragedy In Tennessee.

Nashville, October 2.-Frank Robin son was shot and killed within a mile Of Rocky Ford, Tenn, this morning by Lee Neal, who fired three times, using shotgun, each load taking effect in Robertson's body. Robertson, who lived in Nolensville, had been on a visit to his brother, Alex Robertson. near Rocky Ford, and was returning home at o'clock this morning and as he passed Meals store, it is said, the latter came out and opened fire on him. No one seems to know the reason for the shooting, except that some years ago Jack Robertson, a brother of Frank and Alex Robertson had a per sonal difficulty with Neal. The news of the shooting was conveyed to the sheriff's office and the police notified that Neal was not arrested, but was coming toward Nashville.

 Roosevelt succeeded in having a $29 OO0 900 fine assessed against the Standard oil company. What if 1t had had to pay it? Its output is billion gallons a year. An addition of 3 cents a gallon would have paid the fine in one year and the burden would have fallen on the people"

 "The violation of an injunction by one of you he said would mean imprison- ment.

SPECIAL CAMPS
 FOR TUBERCULOSIS

Meridian, Miss, October 2.-(Special.)- An important step toward controlling tu- berculosis in the East Mississippi Insane asylum has been taken by the board of trustees Superintendent Buchanan re- ported that there were six eases of tuber- culoss in the asylum and asked the trus- tees to devise some means of separating the patients from the other inmates of the asylum so that there would be no danger of a spread of the disease, and so that the consumptives might be given the proper treatment for their affliction.
 Following a lengthy discussion of the matter the trustees ordered the erection of two tuberculosis camps, one for males and the other for females. The build ing of these camps is to be started at once. The camp will consist of cottages of a type especially designed for con sumptives. The lower portion of the cot tages will be constructed of wood and will be boarded up to a height of six feet The remainder of the buildings will then be constructed of screening and canvas making it possible to keep them open at all times, so that the patients will really be living at all times In the open air.

BIG DIAMOND ROBBERY.
Trusted EmpIoye of Firm Is Missing
 As We'll As Jewels.

New York, October 2.-An investiga- tion which followed the discovery that a diamond sunburst was missing from the warerooms of Oliver M. Perrand a Maiden Lane diamond importer, has disclosed what may prove to be one of the biggest robberies in the diamond district. Already, it is said, jewels valued at $50,000 are known to have disappeared, and the inventory of stock has not yet been completed. It has been disclosed also that the robberies probably had been going on for years, and 1t seems possible that when the inquiry has been completed the total will be far in excess of the amount now known to be involved. While the investigation has been in progress MT Perrand has been endeavoring to find one of the oldest and most trusted em- ployes, who has been away for several months.
