The Real Cause of Dandruff and Baldness. At one time dandruff was attributed to be the result of a feverish condition of the scalp, which threw off the dried cuti- <le in scale: Professor Unna, Hamburg, Germany, noted authority on skin diseases, explodes this theory and says that dandruff is a germ disease. This germ is really responsible for the dandruff and for so many bald heads. It can be cured if it is gone about in. the right way. The right way, of course, and the only way, is to kill the germ. Newbro’s Herpicide does this, and causes the hair to grow luxuriantly, just as nature intended it should. ..EYE GLASSES.. Stay on the nose with- out wounding or chaf- ing the skin.

Manua’s King Resents the “Calling” of the Cup for. Mauga, Which He Regards as a Usurpation of His Prerogative. SRR Srecial Dispatch to The Call. CALL BUREAU 1TOG G STREET, N. W., WASHINGT ., June 15.—Trouble is brewiflg in Samoa. Even now the chiefs may have led their warriors wiih black- | ened faces to war on account of a dispute over etiquette surrouncing the method of serving kava, the national drink. Sumilar disputes in years past nave led to atroci- ties, and many German soidiers were vie- tims in the '80's. c Tuimanua, who styles himself King of Marua, has a great following on the isl- anrds, and the etiqueite in forca at his court provides that he is the only person wh cup may be_ “calied” when he 1s served with kava. Mauga, chief and dis- -t governor, dared to command his cup * when kava was served him. The was carried into the courts, but the decision renderéd by the district court was far from satisfactory to the chiefs, and it has been reported to the Navy De- partment that they are anxious to have ii out with each other on the field of bat- tle. Captain Uriel Sebree, commandant of the Tutuila naval station, has submitted a report on the trouble to the Navy De- partment. Mauga one day visited the vii- lage of Ofu, in Manua. A council was held and kava was served. Mauauga re- fused o drink unless kis cup were ed. MAUGA GETS HIS CUP. Saleapaga, one of_ the village officials, spoke, saying that Mauga shouid be al- lowed to have his cup because he was a governor, and Palaita, who had previous- offered Mauga his cup, called out, “Aumai le ipu o le Kovana” (Fetch the cup of the governor). This was a calling of the cup, and kava was straightway served and drunk. The calling of the cup is an interesting ceremony. When a council is called the chiefs of the villages gather, each carry- ing a taro root. They sit in a circle. The approach of a great chief is heralded by the sounding of a conch, and ne comes attended by maidens and trumpeters. The chief seats himself and the maidens gath- er taro roots. Once the kava is prepared by maldens chewing the roots, the kava makers take positions beside the kava bowls and the crier calls for the cup of the great chief or king. The young men bound to their feet and rush to Tuimanua’s sleeping place. They run as.the crow flies and destroy every: thing that comes in their way. The cup brought back, the maid of the vil- lage, a sort of vestal virgin, ties it to a cocoanut palm and offers it to the King. The King, after an elaborate cere- mony, drinks and then—and only then— may the others drink. The honor of hav- ing the cup called is seldom granted to others than a great chief. ACCUSED ARE ACQUITTED. ‘When Tuimanua learned that the cup had been called for Mauga, he at once or- dered the arrest of those who had called it—Saleapaga and Palaita. The trial was long and excited the greatest interest. Fo-Fo, the village magistrate, was a wit- ness. He said that Lei (an official of Mauga) had done wrong, that the penalty for breaking the custom of calling the cup was punishable by death and the destruc- tion of the houses and lands of the ac- cused or by exile. “Not even the King of England could have his ipu (cup),” said Fo-Fo, “for Tuimanua is higher than all other Kings and the people of Manua are the supreme | peoffie of the earth.” But those accused were acquitted. The acquittal proved generally unsatisfactory. Captain Sebree reports that he discovered that two chiefs at Tutuila, who asked permission to visit Manua, wanted to do so for the purpose of seeking trouble with Tuimanua. DUTY OF GRADUATES TOWARD THE STATE President Angell of the University of Michigan Delivers a Bacca- laureate Sermon. ANN ARBOR, Mich., June 15.—Presi- dent James B. Angell of the University of Michigan to-night delivered the an- nual baccalaureate sermon to the grad- uating class in the university hall. The hall was filled with the graduates and thelr friends and the undergraduates of the university. President Angell said: The new century is opening with an unpre- cedented impulse to the highes education. The world has been startled by a series of gifts of extraordinary magnitude in the old world and in the rew for the endowment of universities, the assistance of promising students and the encouragement of investigation and research. Men have been very busy in devising various kinds of constitutional and legislative machin- ery to secure wise legislation and just and ef- fective administration. But no improvements in organization, no contrivances, however in- genious, can insure us a pure democratic gov- ernment unless we have an enlightened public opinfon and & public spirit guiding and sus- taining it in a1l ite life. It is the true ideal of the function of a State university that it should be placing in every community in the commoniealth one or more of its graduates who should through their life and labors carry to those communities and for the general welfare something of value that they have gathered here. It Ig in this way that the university reimburses thé people of the State for the generous outlay that they make for her support. Go from here with not the selfish spirit of the miser gloating over what you have received from the State as an acqui- sition to be used mercly for your own personal profit, but go, rather. with the grateful spirit of loyal children of the State, who will gladly seize every opportunity to make a full return to her for what she has dome for you. Go forth into life, giving freely unto all of what- ever intellectual light you have, especially as you remember that giving of that kind en- riches rather than impoverishes the giver him- self. 1t is to be hoped that in pushing out, how- ever far the boundaries of knowledge, we shall never lose sight of our relations to the Supreme Intelligence. To trace his footsteps, to un- derstand the work of his hand, to discover his methods in the creation and development of all things is the aim of all sincere and honest scekers after truth. When we find these we find truth. CHRISTIAN SCIENTISTS HOLD SPECIAL SERVICES Telegram Expressing Gratitude and Appreciation Is Sent to Rev. Mary Baker Eddy.

Delegates from 97 groves, in addition to the grand officers, will be present. At the beginning of the present term, Julius 8. Godeau, the noble grand arch, made an appeal to the members of the subordinate groves to help him secure two thousand new members for the order during his term. The records show that the members did help him, for in that time there were 2173 initiations, the great- est number in one year in the history of the order. The grove making the greatest gain on the basis of percentage was No- vato, of the town of that name, the per- centage being three hundred. The re- ports to be presented will show that the membership is now within a few of 6000, and that, despite losses by suspension for non-payment of dues and other causes, the net gain was mnearly 1700. Eleven new groves were instituted during the term. The report of Grand Secretary Martin- oni will show that the order during the vear paid in sick benefits nearly $33,000, anc about $5000 for funeral expenses. The number of deaths was 62. The incumbent deputy grand arch, C. A. Guglielmoni, is in line of promotion for noble grand arch and undoubtedly will be | ckosen for that office. For the position of deputy grand arch are named George Beck of Livermore, at present grand mar- shal; Louis G. Schord of San Francisco, past supreme arc William Perry of Sacramento_and C. C. O'Donnell of San ¥rancisco. For the office of grand secre- tary the incumbent, James F. Martinoni, past noble grand arch, and at present herald of the supreme grove, will be a candidate for election. S. C. Glover has been named as a possible opponent. Judge C. F. Caldwell of Napa, W. J. Antonovich of San Francisco and Charles de Leigh of Stockton, at present grand trustee, will be candidates for the office of grand marshal. C. D. Dorn of Salinas and W. G. de Martini will contest for the honor of being grand inside guardian. F. Hcrn, the incumbent grand treasurer, w be re-elected to that office, but it is said that he would like to be chosen repre- sentativé to the Supreme Grove and may be placed in opposition to J. S. Godeau, the retiring head of the order. Following is a list of the present grand officers and delegates. Grand officers—J. s Godeau, noble grand arch; C. A. Guglielmoni, deputy grand arch; James F.

With the passage of the District of Columbia bill by the Senate vesterday, that bedy dis- posed of the last of the supply bills on its calendar, and as the House has the de- ficiency bill before it there is comparative- 1y little to do in the way of getting the | appropriation bills through. The naval bill, the army bill, the Dis- trict.of Columbia bill and the sundry civil bill are still in conference, but no one be- lieves an agreement on them would be dif- ficult if adjournment could be expedited thereby. » To-morrow is suspension day in the House and the Speaker has agreed to rec- ognize a number of members to move the passage of bills under suspension.

WASHINGTON, June 15.—Frederick Emery, chief of the bureau of foreign commerce, to-day made public the fol- lowing interesting extract from “Com- mereial Relations for 1901,” concerning the trade of the United States with Rus- sia last year: Consul Heenan of Odessa says that the sals of agricultural machinery and implements of American manufacture was larger in Russia in 1901 than during any year on record. The effect of the increased tariff on our machin- ery has not_yet been felt, and one American firm alone did a business which passed the $1,000,000 mark. The city of Odessa has been @ heavy purchaser of our goods in connection with the new public hospital now under con- struction. Among the articles bought wers 1500 radiators for heating purposes; these came under the increased tariff on American manufactures, and the town authorities ap- pealed to the Minister of Finance to permit the radiators to enter at the duty which prevalled at the time of purchase, as they. were for a public institution intended for the poorer classes. The request was refused. Agricul- tural machinery of certain kinds—including steam threshers—is admitted free, and our harvesters, binders, mowers, reapers and horse | rakes are so favorably known as to defy com- | petition. Consul Halloway, at St says: As a rule Russians prefer American goods Petersburs, | and machinerv, which command better prices here than similar goeds made in any other portion of the world. Germany Is our most active trade competitor in Russta, and her proximity, and the fact that many of ihw business men of Russia understand German. and the credits that are granted by German firms, give this country a great advantage. Nevertheless re American goods are known they have the preference because of their superlor finish and_quality. | American machinery exporters should re- member that everyting printed in. Russian must undergo press censorship before it is ad- mitted to the country. American exporters who desire to circulats in Russia advertising matter printed in the Russian language should | address a petition to Count Alexander Moura- vieff, Chief of the Central Committee of For- eign’ Censorship, descrihing the character of the publication for which admission is desired, and requesting permission to introduce the same into Ru: Woman Drinks Carbolic Acid.
