Dandruff arises from different
causes, but when it is much in evil

pleted roots, and the scalp needs
feeding with grease or tonics.

Many women take trips these days
of easy travel and they should know
how to care for the complexion while
SCOT and dust are sitting in through
windows and doors of fast-mOving
trains. The soap and water usually
found in the dressing rooms of even
the most luxurious of sleeping coaches
play havoc with the skin; the water
is hard and the soap unrefned.
Creams of some sort should always be
carried; a little toilet vinegar, some
sort of soap jelly, a simple powder;
these will be found easily packed in
a small linen case of a little box that
will fit in the handbag.

TWO HIGHWAYMEN
HOLD-UP PEOPLE
ON DARK ROADWAY

Armed with clubs two unknown ne
groes created exciting scenes last
night about 10 o'clock on the Mayfield
road, when they attempted to hold-up
four young men. The first attempt
was made when Frank Theobald,
chief statistican for the Illinois Cen
tral railroad. was returning to his
home at Eden's Hill. The two men
were standing in the road opposite
the old poor farm. and were waiting
for their prey Theobald saw the
bludgeons and suspected their object
when he whipped his horse and es-
capped. Both men jumped in front of
ca plunging horse and made an at
tempt to seize the lines. Failing
both uttered oaths with the command
to halt. Mr.. Theobald was alone,
and lodged, just as one of the men
struck the buggy with one of the
clubs. The horse was frightened by
the assault.
A short time afterwards Charles,
VIII and Clarence Bell were return
ing home and the two men jumped in
o the road and tried to halt them.
Seeing there were three persons in
the buggy, the negroes quickly re-
treated and made no effort TO use
the clubs. The read is narrow and
dark, where the men attempted to
work their game. Several hold-ups
have occurred on the road since last
winter.

History of the Case.
The East Tennessee Telephone COM
.pany, a Tennessee corporation, had
been operating in Kentucky under
legislative grant for 25 years, when
the city of Paducah questioned its
right to operate here. A franchise
was agreed upon about four years
ago by representatives. of the cJm-
pany and a councllmanic committee,
by which the company was to pay the
city $4,000 and receive a franchise.

denee phones, when z had 5000 sub
.scribers, and so cents additional for
each 1000 or fraction of a thousand
additional, and $3.50 cents for bust
ness phones with 25 cents additional
on the same terms. The $4,000 was
paid, but the general council amend
ed the franchise and the company re-
fused to accept II. Later the city
rendered back the money with inter-
est and undertook proceedings to GUST
the company from the use of city
streets. Then the company occurred a
temporary Injunction in the federal
court and the whole case was brought
before Judge Evans.

il demands, and will be an entering

be incumbent on the company, under
the terms. to show its books to estab-
fish the fact that rates fixed by the
city are reasonable or unreasonable.
