Dear Miss Greyhound IL be harm
ful TO wash the face and then apply
coat OF cold cream and powder over
that before retiring at night?
Can you tell me of something harm
less which, when taken before retir-
Ing at night, will keep the breath
sweet and clear till morning?
A. BOTHER
A-Powdering the face upon retir-
ing does absolutely no good, and tends
TO clog the pores. The best treatment
Is to wash the face without too vigor-
Gus rubbing, with hot CASTLE soap
suds, and then rinse In very cold
clear water DO this at night. On
one night retire with nothing addi-
tional TO this treatment. Ths next
night repeat the treatment, and In adj
dition anoint the face with a pure cold
cream. Repeat these two plans alter
nately The best thing for the breath
is to keep the stomach and bowels
regular Do not eat too heavily
short time before retiring. Clean the
teeth and tongue and nose upon re-
firing and arising.

REPORT OF INTERSTATE
 COMMERCE COMMISSION

 scnable rates to be a. legislative function, not subject to review by the courts. Con- gress, it is maintained, has delegated that power to the commission, and the intima- tion is clear that the courts, in'the opinion of the commission, have no power to re- view such rates as may have been estap- lished through the oredrs of the commits sion in the trans-continental cases.
 The report declared that during the last year 652 cases, embodying 507 formal de- cisions were disposed of. During the year SS1 formal complaints were filed and 12 proceedings of inquiry were insti- tuted by the commission on it's own init iative In addition there were instituted 4S proceedings of investigations and sus- pensions of tariffs containing proposed increases and rates; 1925 informal com plaints; 565S claims, and 5723 applications for relief from the operation of the long and short haul provision.
 At sessions of the commission held in Washington and elsewhere 943 hearings were held at which more than 95,000 pages of testimony were taken. In the 12 months ended November 30, 1911, 121, ,S29 tariff puo- lications were filed, an average of more than 400 for each working day.
 An elaborate discussion is presented of the work of the division of inquiry show HIS lIidl SiliCt OtCclilDGi -ltlVt O- iibiNt- ments for criminal violations of the act to regulate commerce were returned. The aggregate of fines assessed was $214,22o Many Investigations were made that dis closed practices not of sufficient gravity to warrant prosecution, >but of such doubtful propriety that the commission ordered their discontinuance. In this connection the comm ssion says signiff- cantly:
 Tt becomes increasingly evident tha. entire freedom from discrimination can be secured only by a complete separation of the business of transportation from every form of commercial or industrial enter prises.'
 In conclusion the commission recom- mends that the law be amended so as to require telephone, telegraph and cable companies to publish, file and post their interstate tariffs; to make the Elkins act applicable to such companies; that trans porttation companies be required to adopt a system of uniform classification of freight; to provide additional safeguards in railroad transportation for employees and the public to relieve the commis- sion of the Jurisdiction of the street rail ways of the District of Columbia; to pro- vide for the regulation and control of capitalization and suitable provisions for the valuation of railway property; and that a suitable building be provided for the use of the commission.

ARGUMENT TODAY
 0N LIQUOR BILLS

Montgomery, December 20.-Whether the bills permitting and regulating the liquor traffic in the state of Alabama are constitutional will be decided by the state supreme court following ar gument to begin tomorrow morning before that body in the case styled "the state Of Alabama. ex rel w. B. Crump- ton, vs. the Montgomery excise com mission" The Smith liquor regulation bill and tre Parks local option meas ure are both attacked, the ground for the action being that each of the, laws is dependent upon the other for It's operation. The life of the liquor traffic in this state depends upon the final decision of the court in this case. Bril1 liant legal talent has been secured by
 the prohibitionists to push their cause.

primary as a method of conjuring the people, and a magnificent opportunity for the extravagant expenditure of money and exploitation of demagoguery."
 There was practically a full attendance of the committee, J. E. Toy of Barbour, R. T. Erwin of Mobile, W. W. Rather of Bullock, ]. C. Wood of Lowndes, George D. Robinson of Fillmore, J. D. Collins of Lamar, Evan r. Allison of Sumter, J. M Miller of Walker and Shelby Fletcher oi Madison being the only absentees.
 The Big Fights
 As was anticipated the real fights of the day concerned the manner of electing the delegates to the national convention, and on the basis of county representation in the state convention. Concerning the first proposition there were three factions, the first favoring the election of national convention delegates by a state conven- tion the second by a primary, and the third favoring tile election of both state officials and delegates by convention. The latter faction, as a rule, was inn potent from lack of strength, although its representatives were positive in the state- ments of their convictions, which state- ments met with a hearty reception.
 Gardner Greene committeeman of St. Clair, led the fight in favor of electing the national convention delegates by a state convention. He introduced the reso- lution which was eventually adopted pro- viding for a primary for the election of state officials and congressman, and a convention for the election of supreme court justices and national convention delegates. Robert E. Spragins of Madison led the fight with a proposed amendment to the Greene resolution in favor of elect ing the delegates in a primary. Kelley Dixon of Talladega was also vigorous i'll behalf of the primary plan. and offered q substitute for both the Green resolution and the Spragins amendment.
 The first test of the rival strengths oc- cured in the vote on the proposed tabling of the amendment offered by Spragins. That vote resulted in tabiing the amend ment-21 to IA Following the defeat of the amendment, the success of the Greene resolution was certain. It was subse- quently adopted by a viva voce vote.
 The ballot for and against tabing the amendment of spragins follows:
 Aye-King, Jones. Greer, Abercrom- bic, Long, Greene, Wilson, Turner, Troy Cord, Rosson, Taylor, Callahan, Thach, Pugh, Nunnally, Pitts-21.
 Nay-Spra gins, Bowman, Barefeld, Gamble, Lee, Hamilton, Corbett, Reid. Keith, Dixon, Merrill, Lackey, Brown, Blackwood-14.
 On County Representation
 The bitterest fight of the day con- eerned the basis of representation of counties in the state convention. It was recurrence of the old argument be- tween the counties of the ''black belt" and the counties of the white belt" The black belt" counties, with their heavy negro population. protested wig orously against the effort of the white counties to put into effect the bases of voting strength. MT Keith, MT. Abercrombie and MT. Pitts led the fight in favor of a population basis. Mr. Lackey, MT. Callahan and Mir. Long

SLAYER OF WHITE MAN HUNG ON
 THE STAGE.
Ia Riddled With Bullets by Lynchers in the Orchestra Circle-Cor-
 oner's Jury Investigating.

Livermore, Ky, April 22-Will Pot ter, negro, was the central figure in a tragedy when 50 citizens dragged him upon the opera house stage and, after hanging him, riddled his body with bullets.
 Potter had shot and killed Frank Mitchell, 22 years old.
 News spread rapidly that Mitchell had been killed, and citizens began searching for Potter. All were armed.
 Potter was arrested by Marshal V. P. Stabler and placed in the city jail. Hearing the mob approaching, the marshal swore in half a dozen dep uties, and the prisoner was rushed ,o the opera house, where he was hidden beneath the stage.
 Bringing from terror, the black was dragged from his hiding place and taken upon the stage and tied securely to one of the uprights, while the mob gathered in the orcehstra pit below.
 A signal was given and the body was riddled with bullets.
 An investigation will be made bv the coroners jury to identify the par. ticipants in the mob.

Dallas, Tex, April 22.-A syndicate of negroes. headed by Booker T. Wash ington, will endeavor to buy the Inter national & Great Northern properties at the United States reecivership sale to be held in Palestine, May 15.
 It is declared by those who have in formation on the subject that the plan of the negroes to buy the properties of the International x Great Northern follows out the often expressed idea of Booker T. Washington to find employ ment for the members of his race.
 Should this idea be true, and should the negroes actually buy the proper ties, 1t is believed the purchase will be followed by wholesale filling of the positions of the rank and file of em ployes by negroes.
