a THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, B.C., FRIDAY, AUGUST 1, 1890. Fo Tae Toner No better preparation can be had than Ayer’s Hair ‘Vigor. All who use it speak of its merits in the high- eat terme and pisce it, a s dressing, far beyond any- ‘thing else of the kind. It imparts to the hair a beautt- ful silken luster and a fine fragrance, prevents bald. ‘ness and restores gray barr to its original color and texture. “For five years I wae troubled with s disease of the scalp, which caused the heir to become bareb and dry ead to fail out in such large quantities as to threaten complete baldness. Ayer's Hair Visor being strongly recommended to me, I began to apply this preparation, and before the first bottle was used the hair ceased falling out and the scalp was restored to its former Bealthy condition.""—Francisco Acevedo, Sila, Mexico. “Lhave uscd Ayer's Hair Vigor and hsve received more satisfaction from it than from any other hair Gressing I ever tried.""—C.

They Claim They Had a Right to Open a Natural Channel. New Onreans, August 1.—The Times-Demo- erat’s Arkansas City, Ark., special says: It has been known for several days that the grand jury of this county was investigating the case of men who cut the Boggy bayou levee, 15 miles above here, on the 5th of April. Yester- day morning there was considerable of a sen- sation in the court room when that body brought into the court and filed twenty-four true bills. Warrants were at once issued, and while none have been returned as yet, it ia un- derstood that these indictments are against the levee cutters. It will be remembered that the work was down in broad daylight by citizens of Red Fork county who believed that the levee at Boggy bayou dammed the water upon them and thereby augmented the damage of the flood. The following are the men who itis oe are indicted: J. M. Chiles, J. 8. How- ell, Bill Judison, N. Willett, H. Straud, T. O. Chandler, John Furguson, J. T. beet bu RF. Sayer, Frank Claude, Sidney Vaugh, Joe Du- mant, James Newby, B. Sain, James Powell and Charles Spohr, all white; and Maj. Crane, Lee Matpass, Bob Bolton, Sam’) Smith, Tom Willis and Shay Dean, colored. It will be insisted by the defendants that Boggy bayou is a natural outlet, and that under the laws of the state it is no offense to cut a levee across at its natural outlet. They will be vigorously prosecuted. The offense is a felony under the laws of the state, punishable by along term in the peniten- tiary. —_—_ SOMETHING NEW IN MICHIGAN.

They were mostly arrested on the street for policy writing. It is almost impossible to make a successful raidon a policy shop because they have spies out to give warn- ing of the approach of an officer, or @ ‘cheoser’ ey call him. “What would constitute a successful raid?” “Where it would find all the paraphernalia of the business in the house and proof enough to convict the proprietor of conducting an al business,” said Guy. “Do you remember the case of a raid on Riloy at 17th and Pennsylvania avenue that Burgess testified to?” “Yes, sir, but Ido not remember what wae the ontcome of the raid.” “When did you first hear of Arnold’s state- ment that you had told bim that Max Hilton had given you €100 to buy a watch with?” “When Isaw the statement made in the newspapers, within « few months past.” POSITIVE CONTRADICTIONS OF ABNOLD AND BUR- ores. “You beard Arnold's testimony about the watch.

I preferred the charge against him, but do not remember whother I testified in the case or not, though I think I did. “The testimony in this case given as to the orders you gave the officors about raiding Mrs. heh house on 16th streot, was it false or not?” ‘It was false,” “Sup you had given the order to Shur- land and Maddox that they say you did about the methods used in making a case against that house would it have made you subject to removal under the rules of the police force?” “Tt would.” “Was it not because Shurland did just what the order implied that he was removed from the force?” “No, 5 it was because he did what he did in violation of the order that I gave that he was removed,” Here there was a brief interruption to the trial as a Congressman called to see Col.

Furthermore I do not think Arnold would testify as be did if he were sane.” DENYING HANEY'S TESTIMONY. Mr. Hazelton then read from the records Officer Haney’s testimqny and asked Lieut.
