TUCUMCARI STORE
AND SALOON ROBBED
Hodges Dies From Injuries
Caused by Cave-in of
Cellar.

Tucumcari, n. NJ, Dec S.-Robbers
entered the Lobby saloon near the
Rock Island station last night and
stole s14 from the cash register.
The entrance was made through
the back door of the cafe. the
glass being broken. The size of
the broken pane indicates that
the thief was of small stature. The
robbery is supposed TO have taken place
shortly after the closing hour at l
o'clock. The thief then went to the
store of Tafoys and Lawson and max
ing an entrance there, he outfitted
himself with suit case, Overcoat and
complete suit of clothes with all &C
cessories. The police have a clew 70
the guilty one. it is said. This is the
second time the Lobby has been robbed
in the last month
Robert Hodges, the work man who
was injured by the caving in of the
foundation excavation on the Voren-
berg hotel, died last night and the re-
mains were taken to his home south
of Tucumcari. 1t is said that his wife
had had a premonition of his fate and
had written him warning him to be
careful. The fatal wounds were the re
suit Of his fall upon a spade which
he had in his hands at the time of the
accident.
1t is announced that the contract has
been let fer the construction of the
w. B. Rector office building on the
two lots adjoining the Vorenberg no.
tel on the east. Horne brothers who
are building the hotel, got the con-
tract, which is said to have been ap
proximately $4,000. The building Will
extend to a depth of 80 feet and will
be built of stone with a pressed brick
front, the rooms to be heated by steam.
The award calls for the completion
within 80 days.
Work has been resumed on the main
building of the Simpson and Horne
Lumber company's plant on the corner
of Main and Monroe streets. Work was
temporarily abandoned due to the lack
OF material but this lack has now
been adjusted and the buildings will
soon be finished.

How Many Women
Destroy Their Hair?

CFrom the London Saturday Review.
One of the best known hairdressers
in LOndOn-mueh patrOnized by ROYALTY
has the following to say: "Frequen-
washing of the head with soap and we
ter or prepared shampOos makes the
hair brittle and causes it to lose its
color and split at the ends.
Amy person desiring abundant lus-
trous hair should use a dry shampoo
frequently Mix I ounces of orris root
with ounces of therOX. Sprinkle
tablespoonful of this mixture evenly
upon the head; then brush the powder
thoroughly through the hair.
''TherOX and orris root keep the hair
light and fluffy. and beautifully ius-
trOus-it heightens, but does not
change the natural color of the hair
TherOx is the only thing l know that
will produce a growth of hair"
