SOFT, GLOSSY HAIR.
1t Can Only Be Had Where There is
No Dandruff.

u
Any man or woman who wants soft,
glossy hair must be free of dandruff,
which causes falling hair. Stree it has
become known that dandruff is a germ
disease, the old hair preparations that
were mostly scalp irritants, have been
abandoned, and the public, BARRIERS and
doctors included, have taken to using
Newbro's Herpicide, the only hair
preparation that kills the dandruff
germ. f. Dodd, Dickinson, N. d, says:
"Herpicide not only cleanses the scalp
from dandruff and prevents the hair
falling out, but promotes a new growth.
Herpicide keeps my hair very glossy.

OF ROAD BUILDING
SCHOOL.

MoRGANToWN. FEB. 11.-Dr. I.
c. White gave very interesting lee
ture at the university Friday morn
ing on the subject of Road Materials. =
He stated that In every section of
the State the proper materials for
road construction are to be found
by a little prospecting. He called at
tentlon to the benches to be seen in
all the hills am: stated that these
benches were formed by hard rocks.
which, because they will stand wealth
ering, will also gland road-wear In
sections where these materials are
hard to find however, are the gravels
along the stream beds, which are al.
ready washed and sorted by nature,
and which make ideal road-mending
materials. The only sections where
these are not found are the limestone
sections, and III Sc or course have
good limestone rouds anyway.
shale can never make a good road,
because 1t was formed by mud de-
posted from muddy streams and
pressed into rock, and as 1t wears 1t
will again becon NJ mud, so that
mending road with shale is like
putting mud on 1t The hard coarse
sandstones, however, provide good
drainage and wear well. He stated
that in many instances roads could
be located along sandstone bench
which would neYer be muddy, Just
as well as to be few feet higher
or lower in the hill, and called spe-
cial attention that nature had pro.
videl location and material for good
roads. If man would only take adj
vantage Of 1t.
The subject II concrete for
bridges and culverts was also dis
Guessed. and the securing of proper
foundations for such structures, DR..
Whites talk was an able one. and of
great profit to at who heard it. He
closed by suggesting to those in the

county commissioners and others In
terested in the lnaintainance of our
roads. as in this way only can our road
system be improved. A comparison of
American and French highway system
was made, and 1t was suggested that
a man should always be employed to
travel over section of highway from
day to day, keeping 1t in repair, and
that such a system would be cheaper
than to employ 90 men internationally
and without method in their work.

Girl Summer
Fatally SHOT
AFTER NIGHT iii CHINA ToygNs
6iRL Is KILLED IN NEW
YORK CAR.


NEW YoRR. Feb. IL After a night
OF stunning in Chinatown as one Of
a party Of aye, a good looking, well
dressed-young woman was fatally shot
yesterday in Second avenue street
car just as IT passed Eighth street.
Considerable mystery surrounds the
shooting and so far the police have
not been able to discover exactly
where the shot came from or who the
victim was.
Two girls who were with the. victim,
who gave the names OF Mabel cuzze,
10 Valley Brook avenue, Lyndhurst-
N. j., and Helen Sullivan. 22s West
Twenty-hfth street, are held as wit
nesses, but they have made SO many
conflicting statements that the police
are unable to rely on their version OF
the tragedy.
MAccording to these girls their com
panion was known to them only as
"oueenIe' and they said she was well
known in Chinatown. Two men were
with the three girls in the car but they
escaped after the shot was fred. They
are now being sought as one Of the
men is believed to have fred the fatal
shot, but the police have the poorest
kind of a description to work on. The
party of five boarded the car at Chat
ham square. "Queenie" was carrying
bottle OF champagne in her hand
The crowd made SO much noise that
both the conductor and motorman had
to caution them to be quiet under
threats 10 call the police. One Of the
men apparently was in bad humor be
cause "QueenIe" would not give him
the champagne. She in turn twltted
him, adding to his anger.
At Eighth street the man suddenly
leaned across the car toward the cir
and made grab at the champagne
bottle. '"oueenie" lodged him and 8
moment later shot was heard. The
bullet entered the girls left breast
and she died shortly after reaching
Bellevue hospital, where she was bur
ried. All the passengers except the
two girls, hurried from the car and
disappeared.
One report to the police says that
the shot which killed the girl came
from outside the car and this has
deepened the mystery. One of the de-
tectives says also a black mark found
on the thumb Of one of the other girls
is a powder stain mad this has given
another puzzle to clear up. The pc,
lice claim the two girls now held are
concealing the truth and hope to OBJ
tain the real story by Sweating"

Reports from 1ther cities that pre-
ceded the young man here were'of the
most startling nature. many Of the
leading dailies going so far as to state
that he had cured in public places
deafness of years standing with one
of his preparations. Physicians gem
orally contradIcted this statement,
claiming the thing 20 be impossible,
but the facts semcd to bear out the
statement that Co,rer actually did SO.
In consequence people flocked to him
by thousands, and his preparations
sold like wildflre.
Many of these 81 sries were regarded
as fictitious in Boston, and until
Cooper actually reached this city little
attention was paid 10 them. Hardly
had the young man arrived, however,
than he began demonstrations, as he
calls them, in public and daily met
people afflicted with deafness and
with single application OF one of his

NO LEGISLATION

House Will Not Attempt to Regu-
late Speculation This
Term.
Timos- Dispatch Bureau,
Munapv Iuitt ifip
washington. d. O.. March g2.

Washington, u. O., March ~.
IT is the consensus of opinion among
those best informed regarding the at
titude of the House on all matters
that there Will be no Legislation at this
session regarding the abolition OF
| Limitation or regulation of speculation
In. cotton futures or grain futures OF
lin stocks.
The several bills OH this subject arc
sleeping quietly In the Committee on
Ways and Means. There is no pros
pect Of their rest being disturbed al
: though it is just possible that Colonel
Pete" Hepburn. author of the bill to
tax shares of stock transferred, may
make an effort to have his bill report
ed. Colonel Hepburn is one of the Re-
publican leaders OF the House. and 1t
was understood that he had introduced
his bill after close conference with
the President. Since then, however,
the President and the House leaders
have come to some sort of an under
standing regarding the legislation
which is to be attempted at this ses-
sion and it is understood that the
program as mapped out does not in
clude any anti-stock gambling lcgis-
lation. i is fair TO say, however, that
when this conference was held Colonel
Pete was at Norfolk whittier he and
Interstate and Foreign Commerce had
gone to attend the launching of the
Seneca, the derelict destroyer, con-
structed under the supervision of the
Departments: of Commerce and Labor.
1T is just possible Colonel Hepburn
who is one of the strong men on the
Republicans, side. the strongest de-
batter of which that side can boast,
may make trouble about his bill, and
that the program alluded to may be
materially revised.
Meanwhile Commissioner Knox
Smith of the Bureau OF Corporations.
Department of Commerce and Labor. Is
supposed to be at work under a res
olution of Congress. adopted over a
year ago. directing the department to
investigate the cotton exchanges of
the country and report as to wheth err
they affected improperly the price the
planter received for his cotton. Mr..
Smith was supposed to make this in
vestigation during the vacation of
Congress and be ready to report when
Congress convened the I'd of last De-
cember: but the report has never been
filed. and there Is no apparent likeli-
hood of its being sent in at any early
date. Smith says the magnitude of the
undertaking was far greater than he
had anticipated, but every time he is
asked as to the probable date OF his
report he says it may be expected
Soon"
1t is very apparent that the senti-
ment in favor of prohibiting specula-
ton In cotton futures is not so strong
as II was at the last session. 1t is
probable that legislation along this
line Will be delayed for years at least.
