HUMAN HAIR TRADE.
Increasing Exports from China TO the
United States Reported by Consul.

In the year 1907, 56,133 pounds of
human hair were invoiced at this
consulate-general for shipment to the
United States, while in 1908 207,414
pounds were declared for shipment.
To comply with the quarantine re-
quirements there are two courses op-
en-storage under the supervision of
the public health and marine hospital
service surgeon at this port previous
TO shipment, or disinfection under the
same supervision. In 1907 all the hair
was stored before shipment, but in
1908 the demand was SO much great
er and impirters were 50 anxious to
get the hair to the United States,
that heavy proportion of the ship
ments were fumigated and disinfect-
way, while only 1894 pounds went
1t is also interesting to note that
in 1907 over three fourths of the to-
tai quantity moved by way of the Su-
ez canal, 42,7S9 pounds going that
way, while onlq 1894 pounds went
via the Pacific lines. In 1908 the
situation was somewhat changed.
Partly to lessen the time of transit
and partly because of efforts made by
the Pacific lines to secure a greater
share of the traffic, the exporters be-
gan to ship via Puget sound ports and
San Francisco, so that while the Suez
route secured 112,119 pounds. the
Pacific route handled "a, ,909 pounds.
This hair is brought to Hongkong
from the interior, and here cleaned
and sorted, according to length and
quality. 1t is then packed and either
stored or disinfected, in accordance
with the quarantine regulations.
and shipped to New York City.
1t is said here that the hair can be
So treated in New York as to alter its
color and texture, and that it is used
in making the switches, curls and
bands which are so fashionable in
the United States at the present time.
Last spring, when the demand in
the United States for false hair be-
gan to assume considerable import
ance, one concern sent a man out here
for the purpose of making direct pur-
chases. Other concerns buy through

Oakland, Cal-That the members
Of the Phi Chi fraternity of the local
high school are planning to ignore the
orders to dissolve secret societies in
the school, recently issued by the
board of education, was made known

SENATOR TTLLMAN TALKS
ABOUT DIVORCE PROBLEM

New York.-Senator Tlllman start
led his hearers in his opening remarks
at recent banquet by referring to
the divorce question.
II have travelled all around this
country" said the senator, "and there
is one thing about a South Carollnan
that distinguishes him from every
one else in this country And that's
this, that he has just one girl and
when she grows old he doesn't look
around for some young pullet and
go to some judge, and for some trivial
cause frequently trumped up, get rid
of the girl who has been with him all
his life."
Before his dazed hearers had got
over this shock the senaor was well
into an answer to the question, "Why
Is the south solid?"
We're solid because we're white"
said the senator, because we believe
in white supremacy. When you re-
call that we have proportion of ne
groes in South Carolina which, in New
York, would give you 100000 ebony
voters. you can easily understand why
we think so much of the good old
democratic party that stands for white
supremacy
From some of the recent utter
ances of our PRESIDENT mean the
president who is now IN the White
House, and whose presence there is a
comfort rather than a sorrow-it
seems to me that he feels honestly
that 1t would be a very desirable
thing for us to split up and get IN on
the grand old graft in Washington"

Warships Grow Larger.

The conviction seems to be wide
spread that the future will witness a
great increase in the dimensions OF
warships. That the German govern
ment is of this opinion is shown by
the enlargement Of the Kaiser viii.
helm canal, which is to be deepened
at once to S6 feet, with provision for
later deepning, if necessary, to 46
feet. The width of the canal is to be
doubled and the new locks at each
end of the canal are to be LOSE feet
long, 147 feet broad, and &c feet deep.
These dimensions, by the way consid-
ebraly exceed those of the canal locks

Three members of Pendleton's track
team returned last evening from Pull
man. where they had participated in
one OF the most successful inter-
scholastic meets ever held in the
northwest. The Spokane high school
won the meet by big margin, while
the Pendleton representatives only
captured four points. Gordon took
one OF these by running third in the
hundred yard dash while Kimball
captured the other three by running
second in the low hurdles.
The meet was not remarkable by
the number in attendance, though the
entries were numerous, but 1t was re-
markable in the number OF new rec
ords made. The victorious team car
ried off the honors in this respect.
Cook. of Ellensburg, which school
came out third in the contest, was the
individual star OF the day, winning Is
points by taking first in all three of
the dashes.

'One need only to try his luck at
any of the Riviera gambling palaces
to learn how slender are the chances
to win at roulette" says a German
correspondent writing from Ostend.
But IL he would experience the gam
bler's disadvantage at its best, let min
come to Ostend and join the baccarat
players. The game as it is played
gives the man who places his money
against the bank no chance whatever.
and if it we're known how much money
has been sacrificed this season in the
endeavor to win by luck and by sys-
tenn the public would be Mortified. 1t
is nothing unusual for the bank to win
twenty-four times before an outsider
wins once. The people who play. if
they have ever played before, know
this, and still they come again. re-
spond to the call until they depart
and plant thier gold in the baccarat
mire, in the hope that it will bear fruit.

His Desire to Be Senator from

BEvERIDGE THE ONE BET
He AND NONE OTHER IS NOW
THE SENTIMENT OF THE RE.
PUBLICAN LEADERS, HARRY
NEW FOR STATE CHAIRMAN.

indianapolis, Sept. 8.-Since the
story was printed week or SO ago
for the steenth time that J. Frank
Hanly would probably be a candidate
for United States senator against Sen
ator Beveridge an enormous lot of
knocking has been done. and it is
believed that the story has at last
been put to sleep for good-or at
least for good while to come. Prom
inent republicans from over the state
who have come to town in the last
few days have declared that there is
not the slightest possible chance that
Hanly will come out for senator. 1t
Is believed to be more likely that he
will concern himself more with the
task OF helping to elect a legislature
that will refuse to weaken the present
liquor laws than he will to running for
senator. 1t Is taken for granted that
he will force the issue on the saloon
question. He is more deeply interest
ed In state wide prohibition than he
is In the senatorsnip. according to
these politicians who have been talk
ing. If he Is not able to elect a legis-
lature that will sustain the present
anti-saloon laws he would not be able
to have himself elected senator And
it is declared that If he can preserve
the present laws or bring about state
wide prohibition he will be we'll salts
fled with his work.
6everidge Coming Home.
It Is commonly accepted among the
leaders Of the party that there will not
be any opposition to Senator Bever-
idge. He will be the only republican
candidate for senator. according to
present indications. Senator Bever.
idge Is expected to arrive home with
his family from the east in few days
and he will remain in Indiana then
until congress convenes In December.
In the meantime there is not much
talk about the reorganization of the
republican state committee. Here and
there little talk is INDUCED In as to
candidates for the district committee
men in various districts, but nothing
definite is heard. It is still the belief
that HarrytaS. New will be elected
state chairman If he will consent to
take the place. In fact. there is no
other name mentioned seriously for
the position. 1t all depends on wheth-
er New will accept or not.

IMPROVE THE TRACK

New cross ties and rails are being
laid by workmen for the Terre Hautc.
indianapolis and Eastern Traction
company on the Main street hill. The
grade of the street will not be affected
by the change. 1t is very probable
that something will be done by the
city authorities soon for the repair of
the roadway. In many places the
street is from foot to eighteen inches
below its former grade. This is due
to heavy rains washing out the roa,i-
way badly.
