NO POLITICAL ACTIVITY
FOR FEDERAL employees
Warning Issued By Washing
ton Officials

Atlanta, March ,26.-Printed in red,
white and blue, on flaming poster
that looks like a solemn warning
against pestilence or smallpox is 4
new bulletin issued by the United
States civid service commission ii
Washington, which arrived here this
morning headed:
Warning Against Activity in Poll
tics by Federal officers and En-
ployees."
The poster, which now adorns the
walls at conspicuous places in the
postoffice, is signed by John C. Black,
president of the commission, and prac-
tically leaves to the postal employees
just one right in connection with the
coming presidential campaign-the
right to go and silently cast their
ballots
Postal clerks and rural mail car
riers are urged particularly to take no
part in political campaigns. The
wording of the poster says that en-
ployees shall retain the right to ex-
press privately their opinions on all
political subjects, but the employees
know that the man who expresses
them privately" anywhere but within
the four walls of his own home, is
taking mighty big risk, for the in
spectors are devoting a great deal of
their time this spring to seeing that
the department keeps out of politics.

SNOWBALLS FOR CHIPS
USED BY POKER PLAYERS

Kansas City, March 22.-Snowballs
for poker chips, bed sheets for towels,
only two light meals day, were some
of the things experienced by nearly
200 snowbound passengers on Union
Pacific train that was stalled at Oak
ley, Kan, for more than a week. The
train reached Kansas City late yester-
day after having been on the road
from Denver since Saturday March 8.
" The. first few days were spent
cheerfully, joking about our predic-
ament' said one of the arrivals, but
the situation was approaching desper-
alton along toward the last.
Food became scarce and the coal
supply was so short that the cars be-
came cold, Water, too, was scarce,
and we depended on melted snow.
"A theatrical company among the
passengers gave several performances
that helped relieve the monotony."

MRS. GRACE IS LIKE
A HAUNTED animal
Is Watched Day and Night
VigiIantly

Atlanta, Ga. March 26.-Mrs. Daisy
Grace is a hunted woman She IS
sounded day and night like wounded
animal. Sleeping and walking she
knows that around her door, lurking
in the halls, ready to follow at her
heels wherever she may fly, are news
paper men always on duty, and detec-
tives employed by her bondsmen 10
prevent any effort on her part to es-
cape.
For her to hide from the pursuers is
absolutely impossible. In order thar
she may not be moved to some seclud
ed place by night, reporters and detec-
tives are assigned to duty to watch at
her door the whole night through.
All though technically free on bail,
she is practically just as much pris-
oner as when she spent her solitary
hours locked up in a cell in the tower
The only difference is that now she
has a trained nurse constantly at her
side.
The statement made by Eugene H.
Grace, in the little home cottage Al
Newman, with his aged mother at his
side are beginning to have their effect,
and are winning for him widespread
public sympathy which heretofore has
not been extended him even by those
who believe his wife guilty. Opinion
is being powerfully swayed by the
frank, boyish statement, which seem
to show that even if he was not a par
ticularly strong or manly character, he
was at least an honest, decent chap.

SMALL BURGLARY AT

Only Small Change Was Sc.

The Americas burglar, after a res
pite of several weeks, again went back
on the job yesterday morning in Il
raid upon the residence of Mr.. R. j.
Perry, on Lee street. When Mr.. Perry
awoke from his slumbers he found the
pockets of his trousers showing the
white lining and his purse missing, to-
gether with another purse left upon
the dresser, and small memorandum
book.
Fortunately, the purse taken from
his pocket contained only few dol
lars in silver. Mr.. Perry's room is
upon the second floor, and as the lower
doors were found locked securely It
is a mystery how entrance to the
dwelling was effected.

THE FIRST GRAY HAIR
SIGN OF AGE
Easy AMY TO Preserve Natural Color
of The Hair.

Easy ANY TO Preserve Natural Color
of The Hair.
A harmless remedy, made from COM
mon garden sage, quickly restores
gray hair to natural color. The care
of the hair, to prevent it from losing
its color and lustre, is just as inn
portant as to care for teeth to keep
them from dis-coloring. Why spend
money for cosmetics and creams TO
improve the complexion, and yet ne
glect your hair, when gray hair is
even more conspicuous and sugges-
tive of age than wrinkles or a poor
complexion? OF the two, it is easier
to preserve the natural color and beau
ty of the hair than it is to have a good
complexion
All that is necessary is the occas-
ional use of Wyeths Sage and Sulphur
Hair Remedy, a preparation of com
mon garden Sage and Sulphur, COM
bined with other valuable remedies for
dry, harsh, faded hair, dandruff, itch
ink scalp and falling hair. After d
few applications of this simple, harm
less remedy, your hair will gradually
be restored to its natural color in a
short time the dandruff will be remov-
ed, and your hair will no longer come
out but will start to grow as Nature
intended it should.
Don't neglest your hair, for it goes
further than anything else to make or
mar your good looks You can buy
this remedy at any drug store for fifty
cents bottle, and your druggist will
give your money back if you are not
satisfied after using. Purchase a
bottle today. You will never regret 1t
when you realize the difference it will
make in your appearance. Special

Grasshoppers i'm March.

Red Oak, March 26.-Grasshop-
pers in Iowa in March and in such
weather as the state has been eXper-
fencing is matter of curiosity and
of great interest. A few days ago
Mrs. j. B. Bishop found lot of lit
tie grasshoppers on a window sill in
one of her rooms. There were TWEEN
ty-five or thirty of them, and as
sprightly as any ever seen in June.
Mrs. Bishop was alarmed at what
she regarded as an unusual invasion
and was instantly interested in learn
ing where they came from. She dis
covered that they had been Matched
in flower pot in which fern had
been kept growing during the win
ter. The pot was filled last fall from
the garden and evidently the eggs
were in the earth. A search of the
dirt showed numerous hopper eggs
just about to hatch.

FAMILY NEARLY WIPED OUT.
Five Children Die, Leaving Only One
All Within Period Less Than
Four Years.

Greene, March 26.-For the fifth
time in less than four years death
has entered the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Walter Potter, living four miles
west of this place, and in each in
stance a child was the victim, only
one now remaining of family OF
six. Three years ago two of the chill
dren, Charles, years old, and Merle,
9 years old, were burned to death
in their home, while the parents
were away. Last summer Walter,
aged years, was killed when he
was struck by heavy pulley which
had snapped loose from cable on
a hay loader, while he was watching
the operations at the hay barn. A
few months ago, Ruth, six months
old and the pet of the family, died,
victim of infantile paralysis, and
yesterday morning the baby died
from infantile complaints.
The one remaining child lost an
eye last spring when spring of a
door on the farm house broke loose
and struck him in the eyes as he
was pushing the door open.

MangIed by Mad Dog.

Miss Maud Schmuhl of this city
was taken to a Chicago hospital on
Monday night, which is especially
prepared to care for hydrophobla
patients. Miss Schmuhl was very
badly bitten and torn Wednesday
night by monster st. Bernard dog,
which afterwards was decided co
have been suffering from rabies.
Two large dogs belonging to the
family were fighting and Miss Maud
sought to separate them when the
st. Bernard, which was the largest
DOG owned in this city, turned on her,
threw her down, and bit her several
times on the breast, infiicting some
very severe wounds. But for prompt
action by other members of the fam
lily the dog would have killed her.
Miss Schmuhl suffered considerable
loss of blood, but the immediate eff
tects of the injuries have not been
alarming. DR.. Ainsworth attended
her, and DR.. w. c. Stewart, the vet
erinarian, was given charge of the
| deg, killed it, and sent the brain to
Iowa City, where the state university
experts analyzed the tissue and de-
clared that the dog was affected with
rabies. On receiving this word Mon
day, the family arranged at once for
the injured girl to be given the best
hospital care in Chicago. 1t is stat
ed that Friday, the ninth day from
the injury, will be the time when in
dications of the appearance Of the
disease may be looked for.-West

For Common Sense Solution.

Portland, Me-Governor Freder-

prohibition is impossible of enforce
ment in this state, and in an adj
dress here advocated the passage of
law providing for county or local
option. Elections held in many mu-
inequalities over the state show that
prohibition is again repudiated and
the people demand common sense
solution of the liquor problem.
In the town of Jackman," said
Gov. Plaisted," there is one saloon
to every ten inhabitants. The sheriff
has not set his foot in Jackman
since he was elected three and half
years ago, and doesn't dare to-"
The attorney general of the state,
mayors and other officials are MAX
ing every effort to show the people
the folly of continued prohibition, an
issue which has been termed the
foot BALI of Maine politics. The
special session of the legislature un-
doubtedly will enact local option
bill, giving the people the opportun-
ity of having the liquor traffic regu-
lated in their communities or entire
ly eliminated. The people believe in
the statement of the governor that
they are able to control the situation
in their respective localities by de-
Gliding one way or the other at the
polls.
Rallies are being held throughout
the state and all state officials are
working for the election of men in
cities and towns who believe that
the solution of the liquor problem
is to regulate rather than to attempt
to suppress it.
