forty years As New Mcxicos Delegale le

pie New Mexico with Colorado in the
enabling act which made the latter a
state. His adeptncss in politics was
quickly recognized, and. being chosen II
member Of the Republican National
Committee, bc. became at once an impOr-
tant figure IN party management. He
was one Of the leaders in the movement
to broaden aud liberalize the Republican
party and TO break the power Of The
Stalwart organization based on federal
patronage. He worked hard for Mr..
Blaine's nomination for the Presidency

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
A SENATOR OF THE RIGHT KIND.

TO the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: 1t seems rather strange 10 me that
n certain class Of Democratic newspapers
keep harping on one hackneyed idea re-
garding the right kind OF a man to succeed
Senator Dcpew. 1t is all Tammany or anti
Tammany. Why, I'm the name OF common
sense, don't they vary the argument once
in while by showing tho Importance OF
this great state being represented In tho
United States Senate by A man who Is
able and not afraid 10 get up and say
something when occasion requires? New
York has made an admirable beginning TO
recover its oldtime prestige by sending
Ellhu Root 10 the Senate. Now let the
Democratic party do It's duty by giving US
something like his equal as a statesman
and an orator Ever were Sheehan's po-
ltical record of an unquestionable charac-
ter. he is not big enough man 10 he a

this position makes 1t proper for us 10 eX-

unfair IN the treatment the Democratic

Hair Stain.
Dear Miss Doom:

Dear Miss Doom:
Will you kindly advise me what / can
do to restore my hair to it's natural color?
/ had a poisonous bite on my forehead.
and In the evening when / went to bed
/ soaked a cloth with peroxide and put
1t on my head. In the morning when |
awoke my eyebrows were blonde. instead
of black, aud the front of my hair was
also blonde, instead of chestnut brown.
VIII you kindly advise me What to do,
as it looks very bad?
A CONSTANT READER.
My advice Is to let nature take its
course. Both the hair and the eye
brows will soon grow out and be their
natural shade. However, If o find
the blond locks too conspicuous, here
are a couple of remedies recommend
ed for darkening the hair. Try them
on some inconspicuous part of the hair
as the end to be sure that they don't
darken 1t too much: Q) Boil 5 cents
worth of sage tea in a pint of water
with q quarter of a pound of black
tea until reduced to half a pint. Strain
and apply at night to the hair. not to
the scalp. () Sulphate of iron, ten
grains; glycerine, one ounce; water,
one pint. Wash the hair thoroughly.
When dry apply mixture from the
roots to the ends of the hair. Then
apply the following close to the roots
with a fine comb, taking care not to
stain the scalp: Gallo acid, four
grains; fannie acid, four grains; water,
