JEROME NOT TO APPEAR
AT CONCORD HEARING
Prisoner Said to Harbor No Resent
ment Toward Prosecutor or
Other Opponents.

CONCORD, N. H, January THE re-
lease on bail of Harry K. Thaw would
not menace public safety, in the opin-
ion expressed by two of his custodians
today at public hearing before the
commission appointed by the federal
court to pass upon the matter of
Thaw's mental condition. and its re-
iation to his liberation under bonds.
Holman A; Drew sheriff of Coos
local police force, who have had Thaw
In charge since September, favored his
admission to bail.
Thaw and his mother were present
resentatives of New York state was in
attendance when the hearing opened.
Sheriff Drew told of his close rela-
tions with Thaw during the period Of
his eustodianship: During that time,
he said, Thaw had not shown any
tendency toward violence and had
manifested no ill-temper. no irritable
ity and no lack Of self-controI.
Thaw a Perfect Gentleman"
The sheriff said that Thaw was nervous
and excited wnen first arrested at Cole
brook after his deportation from Canada,
and also showed some excitement when
ne was denounced at the extradition hear
Ing before Gov. Felker by William I.
Jerome, special deputy attorney general
OF New York, but no more than any
man would under the same circum-
stances" added the witness.
InaW was pleasant companion under
upon current topics displayed wonder
full insight
Would you consider him characterized
by an exaggeration Of the ego?" asked
DR.. George A. Blumer of the commits
mo. sir"
oficer Stevens. who occupies a Sleep
ing room with the prisoner and accom-
panies him on his walks. described Thaw
as "a perfect gentleman" He said he
wished he had Thaws conversational
ability. The principal difference between
Thaw and other men, in his opinion. was
that Thaw was more kind than the gen.
eral run of the witness acquaintance.
Shows No Resentment.
Stevens said that Thaw's wife had
never been mentioned in the CONVERSE
tons. No anger or resentment toward
any public official or other person with
whom his past had been connected had
ever been shown in his presence by his
charge, whose conduct had been char
acterized by common sense. The witness
had never seen anything about the pris-
oner to make him feel that Thaw was a
public menace.

out date, Gen. Frank s. Streeter stated
for the commission that Mr.. Jerome
had notified him that he had decided
not to appear because the scope of the
commissions inquiry was SO limited.
ut seems obvious" the commissioner
said that Mr.. Jerome greatly misap-
prehends the courts order and the scope
Of the commissions powers and duty
hereunder. Unlimited powers appear to
have been conferred upon the commits
sion to enable 1t to perform Its duty
Of advising the. court upon the only
question submitted, whether Thaw's
liberty on bail would menace public
safety"

First Move in Fight.

The first move In the effort of Virginia
to recover the will, it is expected, will
come when the Virginia legislature con-
venes. it being the intention of State
Senator r. Ewell Thornton to introduce a
resolution to instruct the Attorney Gem
eral of Virginia to take such steps as he
sees fit to recover the will.
Mrs. J. s. Barbour of Falls Church. Va.
regent of the Chapter at that point of
the Daughters of the American Revelu-
ton. received the letter from Mr.. Nor
CAMS librarian admitting possession of
the will. She said today that the Daugh-
tiers of the American Revolution of the
entire state of Virginia are back of Sem
ator Thornton's proposed bill for the re-
covery Of the will.

Both Sides Are Firm.

John B. Densmore. solicitor of the De-

Calumet. Mich, where he went to offer
his services as concilator in the copper

that unless one side or the other showed
some willingness to yield there seemed to
be no prospect OF peace. Mr.. Densmore
will make a more extended report later
The executive council Of the American
Federation of Labor at its regular meet

ECONOMY SUGGESTED
IN PUBLIC BUILDING
Commission Created by Congress
Recommends Changes in Gov
eminent System.

The public building commission created
by the last Congress to investigate the
manner in which the government erects
its buildings is expected to make re-
port at an early date which will con-
tain many recommendations for the pro-
motion Of economy.
The commission is considering a sug-
gestion for the creation of a department
Of public works and new system Of esti-
mating for public buildings. A public
works department would lead, members
Of the commission declare, to more uni
form construction and decrease in the
cost of maintenance Of federal buildings
What Members Hope For.
Some members Of the commission are
hopeful that eventually Congress will be
willing to allow the head of a depart
ment of public works to map out his own
public building program and to make no
appropriations except those SO recon-
mended. ~.
Among some of the points to be brought
out by the commission are these: That
Congress and the taxpayer alike are dis
satisfied with the present scheme for the
authorization of buildings and demand
less expensive construction and buildings
better suited to the transaction of gov
eminent business.
Modern office structures promise in the
future to push out the monumental type
Of building now in favor in smaller cities,
ana the government may cease to build
"Greek temples" to use for post Offices
and the care Of its parcels post.
Suggests Limit on Appropriations.
The commission will express the hope
that Congress will be less liberal in the
future, and cut down its average of a
million a month for public buildings to
a more reasonable figure. 1t is expected
to point out that in more than one
instance $4,000 has been provided for a
building in a village Of less than 1000
inhabitants.
Another step to be suggested to Con-
gress is the abandonment Of the policy
to make use only Of corner lots, and
to eliminate the forty-foot fire limit on
all sides OF public buildings, both Of
which requirements are now required by
law.

HOUSING CONDITIONS
AMONG STRIKERS GOOD
Gov. Ferris of Michigan Also Learns
of Calumet Sanitary
Situation.
Department of Labor Official Sees No
Immediate Prospect Of
Peace.

HOUGHTON. Mich. January 1.-Sani-
tary and housing conditions among
workingmen of the copper country
were brought to Gov Ferris atten-
ton today in furtherance of his in
quiry into the miners strike. General
ly. he was told. such conditions are OF
rather high grade. Miss Clarice Jones
secretary Of the Calumet Associated
Charities. and Miss Henrietta Hoffen-
becker. visiting nurse for an anti
tuberculosis society. answered the
governors questions. They said that
the mining companies had always been
liberal contributors to benevolent
work. and Miss Jones added that last
night William Richard. president OF
the Calumet local of the Western
Federation Of Miners. had offered to
cooperate in relieving any case OF
distress brought to his attention.
Neither witness tried to differentiate
between general and strike cases. Miss
Jones said GOO cases had been listed In
the files of her organization since the or
ganization began work in November, 1905
and that she had personally visited sew
enty-five homes just before Christmas
this winter.
Refuse to Accept Aid.
The charity workers told the governor
that women who had tried to assist the
citizens relief committee in disposing OF
$4,000 to families bereaved by the Ital-
ian Hall disaster had been told that
strikers families were not allowed to &C.
cept aid from that source.
The governor indicated that he would
seek an interview with some of these
women later. 1t was because of this con-
1a rOA fhsaf tIxa HAUta tt<HrS <<f
Charles H. Meyer resulted.
The most extended session Of the gov
errors inquiry was set for late today
with representatives of the union. The
men who are to present their side Of the
controversy spent the morning preparing
their case.

Fairfax county, Va, lis made out of the
whole CLOTH served to stir up a hor-
nets nest among Virginians at Fairfax

Representative Charles A. Carlin of vir-
ginia today declared that an attempt will

commonwealth attorney for Alexandra

Morgan's persistence in refusing to re.
turn the will. which his librarian, in a
letter, admitted to be in his collections
the question no longer concerns Fairfax
county alone. but is a statewide Virginia
issue.
Mr.. Mackey declares that Mr. Morgan
is no more entitled to the will than the
thief who stole 1t from the Fairfax rec

THREE DAYS LEFT
TO SALUTE FLAG
O'Shaughnessy Receives u.
S. Ultimatum to Make Re
paration for Insult to Flag.

MEXICO CITY. April 14.-Nelson
O'Shaughnessy, American charge
d'affaires, received a long cablegram
from Washington early today that Is
believed to contain the final and per-
emptory demand from the United
States government for the salute to
the flag by the Mexican troops at
Tampico as complete reparation for
the arrest Of United States marines
there
Charge O'Shaughnessy refused to
reveal the contents of the message,
but it Is reported that 1t extended the
limit to three days in which President
Huerta may reach a decision as to
what action he will take. This three
day period will end at p. m Thurs
day.
Minister Of War Banquet refused to
comment today on the Vera Cruz dis
patches that quote Gen. Gustavo Mas
as stating that the American flag
would not be saluted by the Tampico
soldiers, but attaches of the war de-
partment intimated that Gen. Mas
would .have the full backing Of his
superiors "even If President Huerta
ruled otherwise" This last statement
indicated that friction has arisen be.
tween Gen. Banquet and the ,presi-
dent. 1t was regarded as significant
in this connection that Gen. Banquet
was the first to leave the cabinet
meeting held at the National Palace
Monday morning.

UNOERH|LL CITES
CHANCE TO GRAFT
Explains Loop Hole in Build
ing Code to Inspector and
Objects.

Harry Hodgin, building inspector,
spent most of the morning closeted
with Alfred Underhill, who wants the
inspector to revise the building CODE
Underhill says he wants to build four
houses but is afraid to start because
the city can hold him up" under the
provisions of the code.
The particular clause to which I'm
derhill objects is one Of the amend
ments in which person Directing to
decision of the inspector can COM
plain to the board of works and secure
the appointment of a committee of
three to decide on the case One
would be appointed by the building
inspector, one by the house owner and
the third would be the president of
the board of works. The committee
men would be paid 50 a day for each
day or fraction they worked and the
money would be paid by the owner of
the house or the complainant.
Underhill says the city officials
could get large sum of money from
him by causing such a committee to
put in many fractional days, all of
which would cost Underhill 50 for
each member. However, he denied
that he contemplates disobeying the
code, thus causing need for the COM
mittee.

Just what the Reds will do against

matter of conjecture as both mines

class of ball in their spring work The
Cubs are in a bad way this year
through the loss of several of their
best men and with a new and untried
manager at the helm, big things are
not expected from that team this year.
The Reds, on the other hand, have
not been showing any surprising
amount of class in their early work.
True, the team has been going along
fairly we'll Of late and should be able
to give good account Of itself this
afternoon, with Johnston in the box.
The big question that confronts Cincy
supporters is what will the Reds do
with the slants of Cheney, the pre-

Reds will have to open up bit to do

YOU CAN'T BRUSH OR
WASH OUT DANDRUFF
The Simplest and Quickest Way Is
To Dissolve It.

The only sure way to get rid of
dandruff is to dissolve it, then you
destroy 1t entirely. To do this, get
about four ounces of ordinary liquid
arvon; apply it at night when resir-
ing; use enough to moisten the scalp
and rub it In gently with the finger
tips.
Do this tonight, and by morning
most if not all of your dandruff will
be gone, and three or four more appli-
cations will completely dissolve and
entirely destroy every single sign and
trace of it, no matter how much dan
druff you may have.
You will find too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop at
once. and your hair will be fluffy. lus-
trous. glossy, silky and soft, and look
and feel hundred times better.
If you want to preserve your hair,
do by all means get rid of dandruff,
for nothing destroys the hair more
quickly. 1t not only starves the hair
and makes it fall out, but it makes
it stringy, straggly, dull. dry, brit
tie. You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive and
never fails to do the work.
