late hair growth and prevent prema-
ture badness, you may rest assured
we know what we are talking about.

What we would term very mar
row escape and a heroic act happen
ed one day last week on the railroad
crossing north of the central school
house. Mrs Ira Johnson was COM
ing up the street just as the engine
on the freight train was pulling up.
Conductor Baker, in charge of the
freight, called to her not to attempt
to cross, but she thought she could
make it all right. Just as she was
on the track she slipped and fell and
Mr.. Baker ran and grabbed her by
the hair of the head and pulled her
out OF the way, then barely jumping
away himself as the big engine pass
ed by. Ten seconds later and a ter
rible accident would have occurred.
Mr.. Baker deserves much credit for
his pluck in saving Mrs. Johnson

gressmen to further plans for the cam
paign.
Mr.. Nichols spent the day in his room

THE BALTIMORE CONVENTION.
Ample Arrangements Promised for
the NeMspaper Correspondents.

Ample Arrangements Promised for
the Newspaper Correspondents.
Robert Grain met the members Of the
standing committee of correspondents In
the Senate press gallery yesterday and
talked over the arrangements that are
being made to provide for the newspaper
men in the convention hall The commit
tee agreed to go to Baltimore next Mon
day to meet Chairman Norman Mack,
of the Democratic National Committee,
and the subcommittee in charge of the
convention at the Fifth Regiment armory.
The newspaper men will take with them
drawings showing the floor plans OF the
and Denver.
The tentative plans prepared by Will
lam c. Noting. the architect who is
working out the proposed improvements
to the armory, provide for only $50 seats
in the press section, while the Chicago
conventions hall press section contained
4l6 seats, and at Denver and st. Louis
there were about a dozen less. Mr. NuIt-
ing says, however, that he can change his
plan SO that about $40 may be provided
for comfortably.
The big press associations will have the
seats facing the center aisle, Just In
front Of the chairman. Next to the press
associations will come the representatives
of the Baltimore papers, and then the
correspondents from other cities.
The press section will have private
exits. so that its messenger service will
not be interfered with, and special plat
forms will probably be erected for news
paper photographers at the sides of the
hall, where they win not obstruct the
view Of the delegates and spectators.

ecutive committee members. The meas
ure was read by the secretary and each
sentence dissected and considered. Com
parison OF the vital points was made
with those contained i'm the citizens bill,
and the entire ground was systemati-
cdlly covered. In the end il was de-
cided that in all its essential features
the bill passed by the Senate would give
the relief asked by the citizens, SRd
that it would be polite 10 take what
was gwen rather than risk a fight by
the introduction of another measure or
by advocating amendments.
This sentiment was Crystalllzed in the
motion Of P. J. Ryan, that We urge the
passage OF Senate baI SS13, which COM
plies essentially with the bill drawn by
the citizens conference"
The committee also authorized a vote
of thanks to the various organizations of
the District for the financial aid given
for holding the mass meeting on jan
uary Il.
on motion Of W. A. Foster, the secre-
tary was instructed to call a meeting of
the Citizens Conference for next Tues
day, when the executive committee will
report progress.
Those present at the meeting last night
were Charles w. Darr, chairman; 2. J.
Ryan. w. 4. Foster, and p. V. Keating
secretary.

ROOSEVELT HEARS
MANY REPORTS
His Friends Actively Engaged in
Sending News of the Progress
of His Boom.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, Feb. 1.-Col. Roose-
Welt is said to be elated over the out
come of the primaries in Indiana on
Wednesday. The former President got
teIeGraphIc word from one Of his cohorts
in Indianapolis to-day that the primary
results had shown a distinct gain for the
Roosevelt candidacy. The colonel was
informed that the move for him in the
Hoosier State has developed so rapidly
that he may now safely count on the
majority OF delegates from Indiana at
the Chicago convention. One OF the
colonel's stalwArls in Indiana is former
Senator Beyeridge, who. Il was said here
to-day, will visit the former President at
Sagamore Hill next week.
Another political development that gave
joy to the colonel was the action Of
thirty-four ward caucuses in Cook COun-
ty, Ill, in declaring for Roosevelt as
against Taft. This was the work of the
Illinois Progressive League, which two
weeks ago came out for the colonel. Ad-
vices from Chicago to the former Presi-
dent to-day also stated that his boom
has caused a stampede in the ranks of
the La Toilette boomers. and that an
other week or so probably will see the
withdrawal OF the La Toilette forces
there. The activity Of Senator Poindex-
ter in the State of Washington, with the
direct effect OF causing the eclipse OF the
La Toilette campaign there, was another
bit OF. news that contributed TO the
colontts happy frame OF mind.
Not a word: not a thing to say"
Guoth Col Roosevelt. when asked about
the campaign developments.
