Many women destroy the beauty OF
their hair through thoughtfulness or
ignorance of certain facts. They do
not shampoo their hair often enough.
or too often. They use soaps or
preparations which contain ingredi-
ents harmful to the scalp and hair.
AS a result of such treatment dand-
ruff is created. the hair loosens, loses
color, falls out. and badness COM
mences, unless proper and prompt pre-
cautions are taken in time. Then
again, microbes and certain diseases
bring about unhealthy scalp and hair
conditions.

dandruff and correct diseased scalp
and hair conditions, if they will use
the right remedy. We have that rem
eoy, and we will positively guarantee

THEY ARE COLOR BLIND"
Union Pacific sIets Out Conductors
for Stealing Fares.

Denver, Jan. Anime Union Pacific
conductors on the Denver. Omaha and
Kansas City divisions have been dis
charged in the last two weeks on the
charge of failing to turn in cash fares
to the company. These fares were
given the men by spoilers" who have
been all over the Union Pacific system
for three months trying to get evil
dence against the "oldtimers'' in the
service who were suspected of the
thefts.
Five of the men let out were on the
Kansas City to Omaha runs. two on
the runs west out of Omaha and two
out of Denver. All of them were ex-
perienced men and had been in the
service of the road for a number of
years being in charge of the best runs
of the divisions affected.
The force of secret service men who
reported the Union Pacific conductors
are said to be the same who rode up
and down the line of the Rock Island
less than a year ago and spied upon
dozen conductors between Denver
and Kansas City who were troubled
with short memories and forgot to
turn in some short fares at small sta
tons along the line. Five of these
men were Denver residents and had
the best runs on the road. One OF
them got back but the others failed to
be reinstated.

YOUNG HAS GREATEST RECORD
Veteran TwirIer Says He Is Through
at S11 Games.

st. Louis, Jan. 4-"Cy'' Young, who has
announced his retirement, holds a pitching
record unparalleled.
In the twelve years in which he has
been in the major leagues he has won
504 games and lost BOZ, making a total of
81 games in which he has pelted balls
over the plate.
That means that he has averaged 401z
games per season, that he has won an
he has lost an average of is 7-20 games
per season. 1t means a winning average
of rs f-5 games per season, taking into &C
count the vast number of times in which
he has worked parts of games, which do
not enter into the records.
1t is doubtful If Young,s present rec
ord will ever be approached. Rarely Is
player equipped with such physique as
ICY. For years players and fans have
alike heralded Young's departure from
major company, yet each spring he is
back again making veteran and recruit
alike look foolish.
Next to Mathewson, Jack Powell of the
st. Louis Browns stands out as one with
a glowing career. The former Yankee
has won 225 games in thirteen years. Sam
Lever of the Pirates, Jack Cheshire. for

In the habeas corpus suit 1t was
contended that Kansas and not the

BROWN SERVED BAKED BALLS.
Fred Prefer Tells How Old John
z Brown Got Hits.

Chicago, Jan. 4.-"There never was
a quainter, odder character in base
ball." says Fred Pfeffer, than old
John Brown, whom the veterans of
the game will remember as treasurer
of the Chicago baseball club for some
thirty years. During all those seasons
1t was Mr.. Browns task to count the
money and to pull the gong. From
April to October he served in these ca
pacities, and as soon as the season
ended he fed to some hot climate
India. China or South Africa. He
couldn't be induced to winter in
chilly cline.
Mr.. Brown in early life was an en-
glneer on a railroad. He was a left
handed man, and the throttles in his
cab were constructed to match. One
day his engine was taken off for re-
pairs, and John was put, temporarily
on an engine with right-handed throt-
ties. John took his train into the de-
pot at Atlanta through the wall Then
he resigned and became a baseball
man.
only one thing seemed ever to wor-
ry the disposition of John Brown; the
chance that somebody might steal his
accumulated coin. He used to come
out among the. players, give US all
cigars, which would explode with a
crash If you dropped them on a hard
currency. Money, amt safe, nowhere
John would say. Keep it in the bank
cashier lights out with it. Keep it
hid it home burglars get it from you,
or house burns up. Invest it in stocks
and someone waters the stock. Put
it in cattle and they die
None of US ever suspected old John
Brown of having a sense of humor, but
he pulled a trick, late in his career,
that had us going some. To this day
I don't know whether John really
played joke, or was interested in
scientific experiment AS he after
wards confessed, without smile, he
took dozen league balls, artistically
snaked them out of the boxes and bak-
ed them for three days in an oven.
Then he replaced them in the boxes
and waited his chance. On the after
noon that he selected for the trick he
tossed out one of the baked balls to
start the game with, and after that
whenever there was need of a new
ball, he sent in another of the same
batch.
"All afternoon the teams batted like
madmen. The pitchers were all at
sea, and couldn't imagine what on
earth was going wrong Smash,
smash, smash, up to the wall or over
the fence-everybody killed the 1eath-
err. The score was something like 81
to 19-one of the hardest hitting
games in the past twenty years. We
won by betting the life out of a spec
tally baked leather in the last inning"

Sheriff Sullivan Says He Is on Their
Trail.

Frankfort, Kan, Jan. 4.-Sheriff Sulli-
van says he has great hopes of captur-
ing the Waterville bank robbers. They
were seen at Waterville the day before
the robbery and the sheriff has a good
description of them. After the robbery
Sheriff Sullivan trailed the robbers
right back into Nebraska again toward
the same old haunts at Wymore and
Beatrice as he did after the Beattie
bank robbery, although he does not be-
lieve they are the same gang. He is
much more hopeful of capturing them
this time than he was before, but can
not give out his reasons for thinking

BADGERS DICTATTNG GoPHERs?
Ehler Seems to Be BHmping Them to
Get Wolverines.

Get Wolverines.
Chicago. Jan. 4.-This is a two-sided
story. One side might be called anti
Michigan. the other the Michigan.
It has to do with that collegiate athletic
organization known as 1.-The confer
ence."
Ehler began at Wisconsin by going
through the athletic situation like a
bareback rider through q paper hoop.
He turned things topsy-turvy and cast
ing around for something else to re-
vamp, loaded his guns for the confer
ence meeting.
He came to Chicago prepared to put
Michigan out of business unless the
wolverine representatives came in pre-
pared to bend the knee to conference
regulations-which meant Ehler's rules,
he being the dominant force.
But Michigan, having copped the
western football championship away
from Minnesota-which had beaten the
other conference teams to standst1ll
was not in the mood to kowtcw and
told Ehler ct al to go to.
To punish Michigan the conference
has forbidden Minnesota to play in
Michigan's back yard or permit Mich
igan to play in its back yard. Mime
sofa doesn't take kindly to the order.
realizing that without the Wolverines
football will be a pink tea affair.
Michigan is as well satisfied, ap-
parently, as DeIore Ehler ana his COM
mittee crossed their fingers. With sew
eral important eastern games scheduled,
the eleven really becomes more import
ant than 1t would be IL admitted to
the conference, while Minnesota is
peeved.
1t would not be much of a surprise
to hear that Minnesota had withdrawn
from the conference, where it is the
biggest toad in the puddle, and entered
into athletic relations with organiza-
tons of its own size and caliber. If
Minnesota does leave the conference
the anti Michigan policy of Ehler will
receive the blacklist sort of an optic.

NOW PENNsY CAN'T GET GAMES
She Stuck to Open Door Policy Too
LONG.

Everywhere in the east Pennsylvania
seeks a game with another eleven from
one Of the larger universities. No game
appears to be Forthcoming.
Once Pennsylvania was a friendly
ally of Harvard. Then came the season
when the players on the Pennsylvania
team began to be questioned by Har-
ward, and when there were photo
graphs in the possession of Boston and
Harvard men showing some of the
Pennsylvania players engaged in pro-
fessional games in the west.
"Pennsy'' stuck to it's open door policy
of amateur standing, and lost it's game
with Harvard, and since then Pennsyl-
vania has had no game with Harvard.
Yale or Princeton.
1t is true that about the same time
Harvard was involved in the famous
Cults affair, but Harvard cleaned up in
a hurry. and Pennsylvania was more
willing to defend its actions than to
concede that point or two might have
been strained.
Pennsylvania would like mighty we'll
now to get a game with Princeton or
with Harvard.
1t didn't pay.
