BECKER WINS POINT
 IN FIGHT FOR LIFE
Judge Orders State to Show Why
 He Should Not Have New Trial. .

New York, July 24.-Confronted by numerous af1idavits averring that Charles Becker was framed up," Justice Philbin, in the supreme court yesterday ordered District Attorney Perkins to appear before Justice Ford in the supreme court on Monday morning to show cause why new trial should not be granted to Becker
 This proceeding virtually demands a decision from Justice Ford by Tues day night, for Becker is due to die in the electric chair before 6 o'clock on the morning following.
 Should Justice Ford hold. that the time is insufficient only sreprieve from Governor Whitman can save the condemned man. If Justice Ford re- fuses to order to new trial Beckcr's fight for life will be over. It a new trial is granted that decision will op- crate as a stay, without recourse to the governor.
 Recommend Short Reprieve.
 Of course, in the event that Jus. tice Ford found he could not give due consideration to the aplication for a new trial within the short time left to him, he could recommend to Cover nor Whitman that short reprieve be granted, but 1t is believed that even such a request from that source would not move the state executive
 w. Bourke Cochran and John B. Johnston, Becker's attorneys, won the order from Justice Pnilbin on the ground that the affidavits contained snew evidence. The sworn statements --one of them from Becker-+declare that Pacler told nnna of bios ao,,ncaJ of the Big Tim Sullivan feature, which, they contend. would have et- fected Becker's acquittal.

GRANDMA USED SAGE TEA
TO DARKEN HER GRAY HAIR
She Made Up Mixture Of Sage Tea
and Sulphur to Bring Back Color,
Gloss, Thickness.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur. properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at home, which ia
mussy and troublesome. Nowadays,
by asking at any store for "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy" you
will get large bottle of the famous
old recipe for about so cents.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does it so naturally
and evenly. You dampen sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time, by morning the gray
hair disappears. and after another ap-
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark. thick and glossy
