PRICE OF HATS


GOES UP IN PARIS.
The price of hats in Paris is going
up in leaps and bounds. Once it was
quite possible to get a very smart
hat for so francs; now 300 is quite
a general price in shops which are
not even first class, and in all shops
there is nothing desirable to be found
under 80 or 100.
OF course, one can get pretty hats
for 25 francs, but one could not wear
them in a milieu where it is the rule
to dress" AS to the reason, l can
find mons except that milliners, like
dressmakers, imagine the only way
OF spending money is to buy clothes.
They look aghast if one exclaims
and indignant if one objects seriously.
And they are all alike. | went with
girl to look at some dresses for
the purpose of choosing a presenta-
ton gown this week, and wnan she
said that she did not want to pay
more than G4O to G45 the sales
woman pursed UP her lips as if she
had said As shillings and said it was
pretty close figuring.-The Queen.

Dandruff! :.

There is just this much about it:
Dandruff is a germ disease, is
most untidy, annoying, and leads
to badness. When chronic, il
is very stubborn, but surely
yields to thorough and energetic
treatment. All germs must be
destroyed, the scalp must be
restored to health. Here is the
remedy: Ayers Hair VigOr.

BOXERS ARRIVE ON HOUOLULAN

Patsy McKenna and Kid George, the
two middle-weight boxers who are to
meet in the Orpheum theater on the
night of the 18th, arrived this morning
on the Honolulan Both looked we'll,
and announce that they are in fine fet-
tie, though they will no doubt improve
considerably during the fortnight
which intervenes between now and
the date of their contest
McKenna is a likely-looking lad Of
154 lbs, though he is slightly above
that weight just now. He is a Boston
boy and made good in the Eastern
states in the bantam. feather and light.
weight classes. He has been on the
Pacific Coast for the past six months
and during that time he has had nine
teen battles, winning most Of them.
He won the welter-weight champion
ship of the coast on March 9th last
when he defeated G. Andrews, holder
of the title, in ten rounds McKenna
fought Andrews three times in all, the
last bout being on April 18th, and he
was successful each time. BY beating
Tom Skinner in four rounds McKenna
won the New England championship.
He also fought a draw with Sailor
Petrosky, 1853 h., champion Of the
navy, which is considered a good
achievement for the weller weight. Nc
Kenna promises the fans that they
will see a good battle whether he wins
or loses against George. 81 haven't

good fight he remarked. He will
probably train at Fort Shafter, or the
Marine Barracks. though it is possible
he will do a few sparring turns at the
Orpheum.
Kid George looks a heavier man
than McKenna, but the latter strips
well and those who have seen the
men together say there is not much
difference between them. George has
been fighting weekly bouts round the
BAY cities and in San Francisco, and
recently toured Northern California.
Among his recent fights are the fol-
lowing Walter Station, knockout, two
rounds; }. Burke, knockout, one
round; B. Hart, decision, ten rounds;
R. Kane, decision, twenty rounds;
Rufus Villains, decision, four
rounds; Brick Burgess, decision, four
rounds; Denver Jack O'Keefe, draw;
f. Brooks, draw, and Sailor Petrosky,
draw. F. Brooks, with whom George
fought a draw, is the lad who de-
feated Pat Cornyn. Both George and
McKenna have fought three draws
with Sailor Petrosky, which certainly
augurs well for their match here.
Kid George will tip the beam at 154
without much difficulty and will get
himself into the best of condition in
the two weeks he has before the fight.
He has shown that he can go the long
route by his twenty-round fight with
Kane, and should have no difficulty
in staying a fifteen-round bout.

have solved my problem with SO

so kind as to restore the missing frag-

Crewe, ION one condition. Twill you

I'LL MEN EXCHANGE
CORDIAL GREETINGS
Archbishop Ryan Sends Card
to Bishop Whitaker.

Philadelphia, Feb. 6-For the first time
exchange of cordial greetings. contain
ing expressions of good will and wishes
for safe and speedy recovery was made
to-day between Archbishop Ryan. of the
Roman Catholic Church. and Bishop OH
w. Whitaker. head of the Protestant
Episcopal Church in Philadelphia Pre-
vious to to-day neither prelate had known
of the serious illness of the other.
When mention of Bishop Whitaker's
illness was made to Archbishop Ryan,
the latter said:
II wish l could call on him. 1 hope
II l get better to go and see him. J
want to see that my word is sent to
him.
When he heard of the archbishop's ill
ness, Bishop Whitaker sent letter of
sympathy to the prelate's residence, and
expressed wishes for his recovery.
So greatly did this act please the arch
bishop that he at once sent his card and
a message Of appreciation to Bishop
Whitaker.
This interchange of cortesfes, attesting
the interdenominational good feeling, has
spread the hope among the Protestant
and Catholic followers of each that each
is recovering. Reports from the bedside
of each at noon to-day Is to the effect
that slight improvement is noted.
Bulletins issued at 10 p. m. say that
while Archbishop Ryan has continued to
improve during the day, with no un-
favorable symptoms, Bishop Whitaker Is
much weaker.

THE GERMAN TAX
UPON POTASH
Question as to Who Pays 1t
Point in Controversy.

Failure to determine beyond any
question who pays the German potash
tax has caused a serious hitch in the
efforts of the Department of State tu
adjust the potash controversy. This
point, it is understood, is raised sharp
ly in the reply of the German govern
mept received last week by Secretary
Knox in answer to his protest against
the tax. This reply, it is reported. in
Inmates that if the German mines pay
the tax. the controversy become an In
ternal German affair. in which the
United States government has no right
to intervene.
At present the tax is being paid "un.
der protest" by the American potash
buyers, although there has never been
any questions here that the tax fell
entirely upon the buyers. for the rea-
son that their agreements provide that
ANY export or import duties or other
governmental charges which may here
after become effective within the life
OF the contract, shall also be paid by
the buyer.
While it is charged by American in
terests that the question as to who
pays the tax has been raised by Ger
many merely for delay and to create
a fictitious issue, 1t Is apparently nee
essary before further progress can be
made that there should be such dec
laration by the American contract pot
ash buyers as will enable the Depart
ment of State to show that 1t Is dis
tinctively a matter which concerns
American citizens rather than German
subjects.
