THE GIRL WITH THE
 AUBURN HAIR

You can find her picture on every bottle of Parisian Sage. Don't let anyone press limitations on you. You can always find the genuine at Leverty & Bro.
 We all know that nature has not crowned every woman with glorious hair. Some very 1oveable women she has treated rather scantily in this re- spect.
 For instance there are tens of thou sands of women in America today, who have harsh, faded and lustreless hair, who are unattractive simply be- cause they do not know that nowa- days even the whims of nature can be overuled by the genius of science.
 If you are a woman without beau tiful hair, do not permit your attrac- tions to be hidden because of this mis- fortune.
 Go today to Leverty & Bro. and buy a large bottle of Partisan Sage for 50 cents, on money back plan, use it each night, and you will notice the harsh, repulsive hair disappear, and in its place will come soft, silky, bright and luxuriant hair.
 Parisian Sage is guaranteed to cure dandruff, itching of the scalp, and stop falling hair in two weeks, or money back. It is the, only preparation that is absolutely sure to kill the dandruff microbe and keep the scalp cool and clean in sumper. Sold by leading druggists everywhere.

Late Lord Tweedmouth
 Suffered Mental Relapse
Special from United Press. )

Especial from Onlted PreSS.)
 London, Sept. 16-Intimations were made today by the closest friends of Lord Tweedmouth, wAR died last night that the former power in English poll tics suffered a partial mental relapse during the last few months of his life.
 His death at the age of 60. is de, clared to have resulted from, mental failing, due to political reverses. and worry over his impaired finances.
 Less than two years ago, Lord Tweedmouth, then First Lord of the Admiralty, was one of the powerful figures in England. At that time however, the public became aware of correspondence between Lord Tweed mouth and Emperor William of Ger many, regarding the British naval pro- gram, which so incensed the people that he was deposed and made Lord President of the council, an empty of flee In this correspondence, Lord Tweedmouth is supposed to have cast reflections on Sir John Fisher, ther Senior Lord of the British Admiralty whose ennity to Germany was vel known.
 Lord Tweedmouth never recovered from his loss of public favor.

 MT. and Mrs. Armand F. Kelly of 308 Bunnell street are rejoicing to-day over, the arrival of a baby boy last nieht. MT. Kelly is a foreman in the electrical department of the Ameri- can Tube & Stamping Company.
 John O'Leary, formerly resident of this city, but now employed by the New York Central as a roadmaster between Albany and Buffalo, is visit ing his brother Police Sergeant Wil- liam O'Leary.
 Captain F. J. Freyler, of Steamer No. is happy to-day because his col lies proved prize winners at the Green field fair. Bridgeport Sincere took 3 blue ribbons and was placed in the winners class.

 Sometime yesterday between the hours of 10 in the morning and in the afternoon a bit of vandalism was committed at the Second Baptist church. Three of the stone steps were clipped and one SC badly that it will have to be replaced. None of the res- idents in the vicinity saw any one about the church yesterday.

CLAWS DISMISSED FROM THE SERVICE Ballinger Acts in Accord ance with Authority Civ
 en Him by Taft pINCHOT REMAINS SILENT
Especial from United Press.) )

(Spec1al rom United PreSS.)
 Washington, Sept. 16.-In accordance with the authority given him by Pres- ident Taft, Secretary Ballinger, of the Interior Department, today directed the dismissal from the public service of l.. R.. Glavis, chief of the field di- vision of the General Land Office, with hea dquarters at Seattle, Wash.
 The reason for Gavis', dismissal is as stated in the Presidents letter ex- onerating Ballinger from the charges brought by G1avis in connection with the so-called Cunningham coal land claims in Alaska. This was "the fil- ing of a disingenuous statement, un- justly impeaching the official integrity of his superior officers"
 Further than to admit. that he was highly gratifed over the President s disposition of the matter, Ballinger declined today to discuss the Presi- dents letter. He expects to go West on Saturday, as previously planned, lis tour among the far Western States.
 Clifford Pinchot, who, by inference is criticised in the Presidents letter is at present on a vacation in Ca1ifor- nit. Whether or not he will construe ment of Ballinger's administration and policies as sufficient reflection upon himself to warrant his retirement as Chief Forester, is problernatica1. Pinchot has been diametrical1y op- posed to Ballinger's interpretation o1 the laws relating to conservation mat ters and has not hesitated to say so Pinchot's subordinates in the ForesI Service refuse to comment on the Presidents letter for publication.

MEDICATION OF
 THE ASHCROFTS
Error In Statement that Defamation Suits Had Been Begun.

In the Farmers account last Satur-
 day of the settlement of the contro-s
 versy between Mark Twain and MT.
 and Mrs. Ashcroft. his former secre-
 taries, slight error occurred. It was said that as one condition of the set-
 tlenent the Ashcrofts had withdrawnl
 the suits for defamation which theyl
 instituted against Mark Twain andi
 his daughter, Miss Clara Clemens. As.
 a matter of fact such suits had not
 been brought, although MT. .Ashcroftl
 openly threatened to bring them uni
 less the vindication which he demand>l
 ed was forthcoming, and this threat,
 presumably had no lHtle effect inl
 bringing about the settlement. The
 form of the vindication accorded Mrs, Ashcroft has not been made publfcsl but her husband, in his recent letter
 to Attorney Stanchfield, submitted the following as one which would be sat- isfactory:
 My Dear Mrs. Ashcroft With reference to our recent n1isun-, derstandings, and the unfortunate air-l ing of the same in the press due to my attachment on your property. I beg to state that have had the administra- tion of my financial and other affairs investigated and find the same to have been properly and satisfactorily con- ducted by you, and I regret that any. criticism by, any one of you in this respect should have occurred fsa Yours sincerely. s.

TAFT AND CANNON
 ARE IN CONFLICT
President and Speaker at
 Breaking Point on Cur rency Question
HOLD OPPOSITE VIEWS
Special from United Press.)


 Washington Sept. 16.-Have Presi- dent Taft and Speaker Cannon come to the parting of the ways?
 The answer will doubtless be read in the Presidents forthcoming speech es during his swing around the cir cle."
 In the opinion of many folks here in Washington, the seed of discord has already been sown, but it remains to be seen whether it will bear fruit Heretofore the President and the Speaker have been on the best or terms. Cannon has been a welcome1 visitor at the White House and his' by the President on many public ques- tions. Until now there have been mol serious differences of opinion between them. Wherefore, the opposing views expressed by each in their recent speeches on the currency question: ouet. and Cannon before the American Bankers Association on the same day-came as somewhat of shock to official Washington. Almost at the ing our present currency system as a, piece of patchwork and declaring his friendliness toward the central bank idea, Cannon was expressing "stand-1 pat" ideas on the subject, ana g1vlnes his approval of the Aldrich- VreelandS currency bill of the last season l There is much curiosity therefore, | as to the Presidents future course That he will take occasion during his | trip to elborate on the ideas he ex- pressed at Boston is fully expected I It is hardly likely that he VIII answer Cannon directly but those who are fa- miliar with the Presidents set purpose | to accomplish a substantial and if possible, a permanent reform in the. currency system of the country during | the present administration, believe that he will go into the subject much
 more thoroughly before his return to Washington. s l A conflict between the Speaker and the President on a matter considereds by the President to be of so much i'm portance to the welfare of the coun- try could scarcely prove otherwise than embarrassing to the administration, as
 well as the party which both repre- sent.
 1 According to present indications, the Il monetary commission will not be ready
 to make it's final report when Congress report commencing certain minor tchanges in the banking laws is expect
 ed, and there will doubtless be some Legislation on the subject. There will also be lot of general discussion of I the whole problem, but as matters l stand now, it is not believed that the l commission will be ready to report a. general bill till next Spring. In that event, the matter will probably go over I for a special session to be called i| l the Fall of 1910.
