Counsel representing Pettingill & Co. stated that the liabilities may reach $1,000,000, with assets of possibly one-quarter of that amount. Counsel of the company, in a state- ment, said the corporation had be- come badly embarrassed through many errors of judgment in the extension of | credits and in the general conduct of its business. No papers of formal as- signment have been filed, and it Is vet to be determined whether the cor- will proceed to the bank- ruptey courts or undertake an adjust- ment through a friendly receiver. Pettingill & Co. have been doing busi- ness in Boston since 1848, and had a wide connection among the newspa- pers of the country. —_————— Directors’ Liability in England. Two test actions brought by share- holders in the Standard Exploration | Company against Lord Edward Pelham Clinton and General Gough-Calthorpe, | Who were directors, have been for sev- eral days before Justice Joyce. False statements are alleged to have been made in the prospectus, and the two defendants are sought to be made lia- ble. The principal allegation is that large holdings were said to have been acquired in the London and Globe and its ancillary companies, the profits whereon were more than sufficient to pay a dividend of 10 per cent on the current year. The company fafled a year after the prosbectus was issued and a dividend of 7 shillings was paid to the creditors, none of the sharehold- ers being paid anything. It is said the directors either knew or ought to have known the statements to be untrue.— Saturday Review. ADVERTISEMENTS.

Ten hours were fixed for general dehate on the measure, but at the end of an hour and a half there were mno speakers ready to continue, and the House ad- Journed for lack of talkers. In his statement on the .bill Chair- man Hemenway of the Appropriations | Committee and Benton (D.) flled state- ments on the bfll. Hemenway summed up the fiscal conditions for .the next fiscal year, showing that after all legiti- mate expenses had been paid there would be $22,000,000 surplus for the year. | Hemenway estimated the annual ex-| penditure for 1905 to be $597,802,324; to this sum must be added the Interest on the public debt, estimated at $84,971,820. The revenues for the year, he said, were estimated at $704,472,060. The total esti- mates of the departments for the ex- penses of the Government for 1805 ag- gregated $747,317,922, or an excess of $42,825,862 over the revenues. By scaling | {down the estimates and omitting to| pass river and harbor and public build- ing appropriation bills the expenditures had been reduced $22,000,000 less than | the estimated revenues. This estimate, Hemenway sald, con- several appropriation bills, and was also sufficient to cover all legitimate deficiencies that might be provided for the next session. Benton complimented the Republicans on the bill, saying that it was altogeth- er the best Republican bill he had seen | come from the committee in years. It,! however, did not meet with his ap-| proval from a Democratic standpoint. A number of minor bills were passed by unanimous consent, and special or- ders were made for the consideration | of pension bills, which had the right of | way to-day. After the sundry civil bill | has been disposed of the omnibus bill | will follow pensions as a special order. The Senate was in session only about three hours to-day. During that time a | number of private pension bills were | passed and another portion of the Dis- | trict of Columbia appropriation bill was read and debated L,y o | CAMP GROUNDS FIGHT. California Delegation Is Not Pleased ‘With the Selection Made. ‘WASHINGTON, March 26.—Sena- tor Bard will offer an amendment to the bill naming camp grounds in varjous parts of the country and which fixes the one in California at the J.

The amendment will not name the location further than to restrict it within the limits of San Luis Obispo, Monterey, Santa Cruz and Santa Barbara counties, and will leave the selection to the War De- partment. This was the proposal of the California Representatives when the matter was before the House com- mittee, » P e oL Three Millions for Improvements.

SABOURAUD of the PASTEUR INSTITUTE This experiment proves that dandruff is a contagious disease due to the presence of a microbic growth in the scalp. It also proves that unless the formation of dandruff is stopped—by destroving the germs—it will lead to falling hair and Prof. Unna, Europe's noted dermatologist (ask your doctor about him). was the first to discover the microbic nature of dandruff and baldness. His discovery was later_verified by Dr. Sabouraud. at the Pasteur Institute, Paris, France. The doctor inoculated a_rabbit with human dandruff germs and in due time the rabbit began to lose its fur. five and six ‘weeks,” says the official report of the Pasteur Institute, “the rabbit was completely denuded, in fact it had become entirely bald.” ineurable ‘baldness. “In-between halr Is an Injury.

Cologne has a reputation, long undeserved, for mells other than that of its famous water,” and it has been said that in years of old a blind man could find his way about Cologne by following his nose. Moscow has an odd perfume of its own. It suggests cranberries of pe- culiar pungency. And it never leaves the nose. Garlic, of course, is the basic smell that greets the stranger wWho lands at Calais. But the most curious of the smelis of place is that of St. Peters- burg. The present writer had often wondered what it was, having detected it even between the sheets of his bed at the most exorbitant hotel. On his third visit he was driving In a droshky from the station with a fresh young English girl, who had never been away from Kent before. “Now, do you smell anything?”’ he asked. “Yes” said the girl. *“Old boots.” That is the smell of St. Petersburg.

A few definitions of Chinese geo- graphical prefixes and suffixes may be of service in elucidating the nomen- clature of current war news. First, prefixes: Ta. as in Takn, means great, and siao, as in Siao-Ping-Thou, means small. Pei or pe, nan, tung, and si are, respectively, nerth, south, east and west. Thus the Pei-Ho is the North River, etc. Shang and hal are upper and lower. Pai, hei and whang are white, black and yellow. Suffixes are more numerous and familiar. Kiang, | ho, tchuan, ula, muren and tchu each | and all mean simply river. Thus| Yalo Kiang and Liao Ho are| simply Yalu River and Liao River. Shui, kou, thsuan, khi, gol and ussu are unfamiliar terms, mean- ing a brook or small river. Hu, nor and omo mean lake, as in the well- known Lob Nor and Kossa Gol. Po, tse and tien mean a small lake or swamp, or a town situated near such a place. Hai means sea; thus Whang-Hai Is the yellow sea, Tung-Hai is the Eastern sea, and Nan-Hai is the Southern sea. Tao, and sometimes shan, means is- land, but shan more often means a mountain range. Ling is a pass over a mountain range.—Boston Transcript. —_—————————— One experience with the grip gen- erally ucres a man of a’disposition to joke about it. _————— it. You sometimes, too, see honorable members asleep, and you often hear unmanly interruptions from the Irish and Tory branches. On the other hand, you never see an English M. P, as I have often seen an American Con- gressman, enjoying the luxury of a “dry smoke” and relieving himself by profuse spitting. The House, too, is much more punctilious than Congress on the small points of order. When- ever a member violates them he is in- stantly hauled up, not merely by the Speaker, but by his fellow members, to many of whom it is part of the spice of life to pounce upon offenders. As for the oratorical standard of the House it is difficult to speak with pre- cision. The late Empress of Austria used to say that she saw more good and more bad riding in the English shires than anywhere else in the world. Much the same sort of criticism might | be passed on parliamentary eloquence. Some of it is exceedingly good, better, I think, than anything oné is likely to hear in Congress; but much of it is atrocious. On the whole, in this, as in so many other spheres of Anglo- American comparatives, I should be in- clined to say that while the House of Commons’ best is better than the Con- gressional best, the House of Commons’ average is below the Congressional av- erage.—Harper's Weekly. —_— e Australia’s Woman Voters. The official returns of the election in the commonwealth of Australia show that the newly enfranchised women availed themselves in great numbers of their electoral privilege. Whether they were mainly actuated by female cu- riosity is not clear, but it appears tha their chief influence upon the election was in swelling the votes of all parties without affecting the result. They ‘merely followed their husbands, fathers, uncles and male cousins. But they cast at any rate an honest vote, for the original Australian ballot sys- tem is not corrupted, as is its Pennsyl- vapia imitation.—Philadelphia Record. —_— re———— A politician is the fellow who tries to make the whole country believe that he is the only thing that can save it from going to the demnition boww,own.
