HAREM SKIRT Is
NEAR RIOT CAUSE
Dare devil Blonde Appears in One
on Brooklyn Bridge and There
Is Stampede

New York, Feb. 25.-The Brook
Ign bridge broke its record as a
scene OF daredevil exploits yesterday.
Suicide or professional bridge jump
er never thrilled a throng OF bridge
promenaders more than did the ap-
pearance of a dashing young blonde
late this afternoon. She was attir-
ed in a new harem skirt-the first
of millions of New York women pub
Hcly to venture the new affectation
OF mems clothes, which has stirred
continental cities to riot. 1t nearly
came to that on the bridge today.
Pedestrian traffic was blocked by
crowds which collected in her wake
and followed her bold lead right into

an act to impose on bachelors more
than 35 years of age an annual tax
of So. This action has the effect of
killing Mrs. Smiths bill and no more
of it will be heard this session. While
there was no debate on the report
the members of the committee said
privately that they were convinced
by the recent hearing on the bill that
it is frivolous and unwise and that
serious consideration of it would
have the effect of giving counte-
nance to freak" legislation calcu-
lated to invite ridicuIe and serving
no good purpose.

HITCHCOCK YIELDS.
Postmaster General Hitchcock has
virtually abandoned his fight upon the
Independent magazines of the country
If congress had adopted his plan of
increasing the magazine rate from /
to cents a pound many of the popu-
lar independent magazines would
have been driven out of business.
Hitchcock's explanation of the propos-
ed increase was that he wished to re-
duce the postal deficit. Only two
weeks before he announced his attack
on the magazines, however, the post
master general advocated the pas
sage of the ship subsidy grab" bill
which provides for the donation of 81
100000 every year to private ship
owners, the 81 100000 to come from
the profits of the foreign mail division
of the postoffice.
Postmaster General Hitchcock has
had bad luck with nearly all of his
so-called economy plans. He propos-
ed to save money by making the rail
way mail clerks work overtime, and
by reducing the force in the face of In
creasing business, but the mail clerks
like the magazines, have made such
protest that the postmaster general
has in each instance been Obliged TO
run TO cover.

Are Microbes
in Your Scalp?
It Has Been Proved that Mi
crobes Cause Badness.

Professor Unna Of Hamburg. Ger
many and DR.. Sabourand, the leading
French dermatologist, discovered
that a microbe causes badness.
Their theory has time and again
been amply verified through research
experiments carried on under the OBJ
servation of eminent scientists. This
microbe lodges in the sebum. which
is the natural hair oil and when per-
mitted to flourish it destroys the bair
follicles and in time the pores en-
tireIy close and the scalp gradually
takes on a shiny appearance. When
this happens there is no hope of the
growth of hair being revived.
We have remedy which will, we
honestly believe, remove dandruff,
the microbe, promote
good circulation in the scalp and
around the hair roots, tighten and
revitalize the hair roots and over
come badness, so long as there is
any life left In the hair roots.
We back up this statement with
our own personal guarantee that this
remedy called RexaIl "93" Hair
Tonic will be supplied free of all
cost to the user If it fails to do as
we state.

A ONE-MAN Mine
and QUARTZ MILL

A one-man mine and mill, the
plant treating five tons of ore in
twenty-four hours at an expense Of
less than SIS per month, is the
remarkable proposition owned by C.
NJ. Taylor Of Idaho Springs. Col.
A picture and description of the
plant is given in Mining Science at
Denver, and it all shows what an
ingenious man can do with the gen.
erous facilities nature is capable
of providing, but which SO often
are withheld.
There is a thirty-foot water wheel
which furnishes. the power for hoist
ing the ore and also the power for
running the mill The owner breaks
down his ore, fills his bucket and
then climbs out. The bucket is
hoisted by drum which is CON
nected to the main shaft of the wa
ter wheel by friction clutch and
controlled by lever within a few
feet of the gallows frame.
Without leaving his post the on
orator dumps the bucket in the or
binary manner by means of hook
and chain. The contents fall di-
rectly into the hopper of the ten
stamp mill, the power for which
also is supplied by the water wheel,
and the ore is fed automatically into
the stamps. If waste is hoisted
it is dumped to one side. After
the ore leaves the stamps it passes
over an amalgam plate, then into
Gilpin county bumper.
The milling goes on while TAYLOR
Is working underground also while
he sleeps.

fornia asserted prior claim.
So Paxton's pride was broken, and
he put a pistol to his head to end
it all And now it is the stocks
and bonds that he pledged to the
Anglo and London-Paris bank that
are being thrown on the market un-
der some arrangement between that
bank and the Bank of California.
The stocks have increased great
ly since Paxton's death, and he
held some of the shares in which
trading has been most brisk. For
instance, he had 5000 shares of

is a nice little nest-egg in itself.

GHOST
SKATERS MARKET
SLUMP IN CONISTOCKS SAID TO
HAVE BEEN CAUSED By A
STRANGE INFLUENCE.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 1S.-Has
the ghost of Charlie Paxton risen
up to break the Comstock market
just as it was having the biggest
furry in years?
Since the strike in Mexican there
has been a sort of feeble echo of
the old-time excitement over the
Comstock shares. Prices have gone
booming, trading has been brisk
and Mexican almost touched 81 a
share.
But on Saturday there was a
slump. Mexican broke way down to
$3.50 a share Prices have gone
booming, carried the north ends and
all the sharp-trading stocks down
with it.
What's the matter?" asked the
followers of the game.
One of the answers to this ques-
ton is that the projected throw
ing on the market of Charlie Pax
tons stocks was the impelling cause
of the slump, and that is why it
is said Paxton's ghost has risen to
