apprenticeship in the wool asserting de-

worsted room. This is the next stage in

There are many other processes before
the product is completed, but the officers
of the company say that young Roose-

and is learning rapidly.
He is living quietly in Thompsonville
and goes to work early every morning
in a black working shirt and loose blue
overalls He nearly always goes to bed
early and is seldom seen on the streets
at night
When the local firemen had a celebra-

thick of 1t and visited fire headquarters,
where he made careful and critical in
spection of the chemical truck.
The overseers of the factory under

remain in Thompsonville at least year.

unnecessary, for by parting the hair,
puffiness, combined with softness, can be
secured. For such couture one begins
by making a part few inches back from
the forehead. That makes one division.
From this another part is made on either
side, coming down back of the ear to just
one side OF the back of the neck. This
forms three separate divisions. four in
deed. counting the back. These are kept
distinct, and the rolls are then pinned
securely in the lines.
The center that just over the forehead
is then softly brushed back over the roll,
to hang loose. Then one side Is taken up
brushed smooth and laid back over the
roll, being pinned just about at the mid
die of the head. the end hanging loose.
The other side is treated in the same
manner. bringing it to meet the first side
in the middle. That leaves all the long
hair hanging. while the couture about the
face is shaped.
This may be pulled and softened lit

are gathered together and done in any
way one chooses. After the couture is
finished. puffs are pinned on in those hol-
lows that need filings, but the style of
wearing five or six is not one which is
now followed by we'll dressed women.

ARCHBOLD TO HEARST.
Asks the Favor That Family Let
tiers Be Returned

NEW YORK, October 27.-John ID.
Archbold of the Standard Oil Company
on being asked whether he had anything
to say regarding the letters read by w r.
Hearst at the Carnegie Hall meeting Sat
urday night. replied:
Il am very sure that until Hearst read
the letters neither Judge Morrison nor
Judge Henderson had any knowledge OF
my having written Gov. Stone in their
behalf Judge Henderson was not APP
pointed by Gov. Stone to the supreme
pointed by Gov. Pennypacker to a SUI
perior court judgeship If. however. any
feeble word of mine could have influenced
in the slightest degree the selection OF
those gentlemen for their respective posi-
tons. l would be very proud of it, Their
they. and 1 certainly have never asked OF
them any favor of any kind. either for
myself or for the company with which
am connected.
My letter to Gen. Elkn referring to
accompanying drafts related entirely to
contributions to the republican state com
mittee. then engaged in the campaign
preliminary to the denomination of Mr..
Mckinley, a subject regarding which
think Hearst would be little sensitive,
for was 1t not the election and tragic
death of Mr.. Mckinley that came near
costing Hearst his precious neck?
THE statement regarding Judge Haignt
is in connection with an old libel that has
been explained and exploded so many
times that 1t would be simple WEAKNESS
to the public to go over 1t again.
THE intimation by Hearst that he has
had any communication from me or from
any OF my associates in connection with
the stolen letters is lie.
THE only favor which would ask, or
hope ever to ask. of Hearst is that he
return to me the letters handed him by his
larcenous gentleman friend which were
written from Japan relating to the fatal
illness of my daughter In that country"

1t is time that some common sense
changes were made in hair dressing, for
a coiffure that is stiff cannot form an
effective frame for the face, and certainly
quantities of false puffs, even when placed
artistically, do not have an appearance OF
softness. ,
When arranging the tresses let it be
understood that it is not necessary to
wear puffs and chignons to secure a
couture sufficiently large to carry the
nonstrous hats now worn. Very much
more and an infinitely prettier effect may
be had with little hair and only one or
two puffs. for the secret lies in proper
manipula ton.
For instance. it is not possible to divide
the hair only once and adjust a large roll
in such manner as to make it pretty. At
least three divisions viii be required. and
possibly more. With three the procedure
is simple-that is. for the foundation.
Elaboration may follow, when desired
but that must depend upon the Individual
One great fundamental error in hair

within ten days, with additional safe
guards for workmen.
Not more than two-thirds of the VIC

James L. Roderick, head of the State
Department of Mining, said to-day he
would begin an investigation as TO the
cause Of the catastrophe as soon as the
