A. Kiefer & Co.: Gentlemen—For some time my hair has been falling out, threatening me with baldness. I used Ayer's Hair Vigor, Hall's Hair Renewer and other remedies, with no eflect. My sculp has always given me trouble, being covered with scales, the result of a scrofulous attention. Becentl I was prevailed upon to try Lyon's Kozothium. The eflect was wonderful. Not only was the falling off of the hair arrested, and a new growth of a air stimulated in its stead, but the scales were removed from the scalp, which is no longer feverish and uncomfortable* but cool and healthful. My hair which was exceedingly gray has resumed its natural color, and Is soft and glossy. lam now using it upon beard, to which tt is restoring its former natural color, though more slowly xbab. to my hair. recommend it with confidence as a medi cine for the scalp and a hair tonic and a nair restorer, R« E. 1JKARDSLEY

Nothing is known as yet touching the fate of Gen. Cordon. If not killed in the attack upon Khartoum he will undoubtedly be held for ransom by the Mahdi who must, by this time, be in need of gold, England could hardly refuse to pay any reasonable sum for the safe deliverance of Gordon, and El Mahdi doubtless knows how to drive a bargain.

The latest New York business reviews all speak of the better feeling in business circles. There is an increased activity, nearly all branches.

The Evansville Daily Journal is one of the brightest, newsiest and most enterprising of the papers received at this office. afr. James II.

Under his enterprising and judicious management, we are pleased to note, in its advertising columns and general tone, unmistakable evidence of deserved business prosperity.

criminal libel upon the treasurer of the neighboring town, the libel being based on the application of the word "crooked' to the plaintiff. The judge, when the case was called, thought the word was libellous, but the editor's counsel argued that it was not, inasmuch as it might be understood as referring not to the plaintiff's character, but to his body. The lawyers argued this point for three hours, and when they had worn themselves out, the judge said he would decide the question in due time. If he decides the word to be libellous, the defense will carry the case up to the Supreme court.

General Hazen wants to correct the misuse of the words cyclone and tornado, and has consequently sent out a circular describing the characteristics of the cyclone and tornado, which are distinct storms. Cyclone came into use about forty years ago to describe the violent storms of the Bay of Bengal. It is the name given to a storm whose path is from one hundred to one hundred and fifty miles wide, a storm characterized by a broad cloud disc, from which heavy rain falls with spiral inward blowing winds of destructive violence near the centre, but with a calm space, ten or fifteen miles in diameter at the centre itself, known as "the eye of the storm." The barometer always records a low atmospheric pressure near the strom-center. Cyclones have-a progressive motion, not directly visible, but apparent in the passing changes of the weather they bring. They are not always violent, are often accompanied by a broad sheet of clouds with rain and snow, with high temperture in front of them. In this country such cyclonic storms never leave a narrow path of destructive action dong the track of their central passage, but are benefical rather than otherwise, as they bring the greater share of the ruins. As a whole, they travel across the country from west to east, at rate of twenty-five or thirty miles an hour the same storm often endures for a week and its pathway may be followed for several thousand miles. Tornadoes are violent storms, which appear to be generated only in certain parts of the broad and relatively harmless cyclonic storms. Tornadoes are marked by their well-known whirling funnel cloud, and by their narrow path of destruction, within which few structures can stand. They advance at a rate of twenty-five or thirty miles an hour corresponding to the progression of the great cyclonic storms within which they are generated and a single tornado seldom endures more than an hour or two. A number of tornadoes frequently occur on the same day in adjacent states they are commonly associated with thunder storms or with gales or squalls of violent straight-line winds. The name tornado has been used since the early part of Ais century in this country and Europe.

The Head Only in the North.* Philadelphia Prees. Mr. Hendricks is holding a series of littJe pow-wows of his own down in Georgia and Alabama.

Mr. Cable expresses calm indifference at creole criticism of his works. He is reported to say: "I have noticed that all the criticism come from the Creoles themselves, who are, of course, insensible of their own errors in the use of English, and hence are hardly to be taken .as competent critics of my books in that respect. As to their characteristics, the voilence of their attack upon my works only serve to confirm the truth of. the characters as I have drawn them."

ECHOES OP THE PRESS.

Indianapolis Times: The press of the state, with great unanimity, announce that the mass of tiie people are indignant at the course of the democratic majority of the legislature in refusing to investi gate the condition of the state treasury, as well the efforts to whitewash the state treasurer. They regard the opposition of Mr, Cooper to an investigation as a confession that the money is not there.

Chicago Journal: It is mentioned as one of the surprising facts in politics that Mr. Hendricks has been guilty of bad faith toward his democratic colleague in Indiana, Mr. McDonald. This is a surprising fact only to the extent that it should surprise anybody. Mr. Hendricks has a number of marked peculiarities in his character, and the most noted of which is that he never acted in good faith toward anybody but himself.

St. Lous Globe-Democrat: The humanity of Gladstone's purpose should nit be lost sight of in this time of bitterness, and he should not be taxed with the violation of a sacred promise because he did not prevent a mishap which Gordon himself aid not foresee. In this country, at leatft, we might do Gladstone this justice. At home the popular thought will only be the bitter one that ruin has overtaken Gordon, and that disaster threatens even the troops sent to help him carry on his work. Failure will mean to them only culpability.

Milwaukee Sentinel: The ownership of millions of acres by English noblemen (they own now some 21,000,000 acres) is for all political purposes its ownership by a foreign government. These great tracts of land will be colonized by British subjects—by great masses of people who have no sympathy with our institutions, and who will own no allegiance except to a foreign nation. It is little enough to ask of these people, and of all who come here to acquire property, to become American citizens. If a man has the privileges of citizenship, he should be made to carry the burdens also.

New York Herald: If a man does wrong, repents and makes restoration, his offiense may be "condoned." If Great Britain should to-morrow evacuate and surrender her crown colony of Honduras, acquired and enlarged in violation of the Cla^ton-Bulwer treaty, "there might be: talk of "condoning." But it is too weak a plea, this of Senator Bayard, standing in his place in the senate, to plead for Great Britain against the United States. If the democratic party, just coming into power, is going to follow Senator Bayard,* if with him it is going to take the Bide of England, clearly in the wrong, against America, clearly in the right, in that case we can only repeat what we said last Monday—the party and its ^president will go

out after four yt*rs with ruined reputation and lest prestige. Philadelphia Press: The fate of Gordon and the fall ei Khartoum will shake British prestige throughout the east. The intelligence will fly on the wings of the wind throughout the trackless wastes of the deserts, and from province to province, and wherever it reaches it will leave its shade of menace. It will inflame the

Mahdi's followers with renewed passion, and bring other hosts to his successful standard. In the presence of this peril, England has not only to rescue the scattered columns which are now left in serions danger, but to avenge the defeat and recapture Khartoum. She cannot stop to ask whether she has any right in Egypt or whether her policy has been justifiable, there can be only the single thought of blotting out the disaster and recovering the supremacy of victory,

THE EXFRESS, TEKBE HAUTE, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 1885.

the whole

throng of little great men begin to cry, with one accord, "Stone him to death I" When the party seeks a candidate, it begins by ostracizing the men who are known to have brains. Having elected King Log, it now fears that he may prove to be King Stork, and set himself against some of the inane, stupidities for which the party passionately longs. "He is not a democrat at all," some are already saying. If he does not contrive to feed a larger jpaultitude than 3,000, with very few loaves and small fishes, he will soon be made to feel that he is not the man for the place. This is the party to which the conduct of affairs has been intrusted for four yeais to come. The country will have to get on with it afi best it can.

THE LEGISLATURE.

THE SENATE EVINCES A D1SPOgITION TO REJECT BAILEY'S liABOR BlliLi.

Both Bodies Meet in I ho Afternoon In Joint Convention to Elect Librarian and Other Officers.

SENATE.

Senator Foulke presented a petition from citizens of Wayne county, for in struction in schools on effect of alcohol and in favor of passage of the military bill. There was also a petition on alcoholism by Senator Duncan of Hamilton and Tipton. Senator Bailey introducedabill to regulate the business of banking. It was moved tp refer it to a special committee of five. Senators Weir and Foulke objected, and it went in due course to the committee on banks and banking, and one hundred copies-were ordered printed forthwith. Senator Bailey presented a bill for drainage of lands. Senate bill 191 to restrainthe manufacture and use of dynamite and other dangerous explosives, was taken up and passed to a second reading.

The first section makes it a felony to possess such explosives, with intent to do harm to person or property. Section two makes it a felony for any person or com)any to transport or store such explosives or such dangerous purposes. Ihe bill was ordered engrossed. Senator Weir's appellate court bill was made a special order for to-morrow, at 2 o'clock, and Bailey's labor bill for 3 o'clock. Senate bill No. 3, to prevent the spread of Canada thistles, was amended, anci ordered engrossed. The military bill was made the special order for 2:30 to-morrow. The treasury committee's bill, for reorganizing the state treasurer's office, was referred to the judiciary commit te, with instructions to report at an early day. Senator Weir's bill to abolish the offices of city assessor and city treasurer, was amended, and the committee's report adopted, and ordered engrossed. Senator Seller's bill, for the erection of fisli ladders in certain streams, was read a second time.

A Reminder of the Clown's Case, Memphis Avalanche. It is a good joke on England and Germany that little Portugal has gone in and bagged the Congo country while they were discussing it. 'Tis much like the clown's case of the Englishman, Irishman and Dutchman, who were to dream, and that one who related the most remarkable dream was to have the remaingloaf. The Englishman and Dutchman told dreams first. When the Irishman's time came he said, "Faix, I dhramed in the night I was hungry and got up and ate the loaf."

Prohibition's Failure in Maine. Portland Argus. The policy of high license, as tried in Nebraska, Missouri, and Illinois has had the effect to reduce largely the number of drinking saloons, and has turned great items of revenue into the state treasuries. These points of gain are certainly imporant. When our esteemed prohibition friends have gotten through with their experiments we shall be able to estimate with some accuracy how far they have improved upon these results. As yet, after a trial of more than thirty years, it does not appear that liquor shops have been materially diminished, or that the state's revenues hafe been materially increased. How long must we wait for the promised success

GENERAL FUND SHORTAGE.

Payment of Warrants not Totally Stop, pel—ihe Necessity for the Legislature Authorizing a Loan at Onoe.Yesterday's Indianapolis News.

At the opening of business hours this morning there was just §2,363.81 to the credit of the general fund in the state treasury and the auditor was drawing warrants only for small amounts, deiering Irrger payments until means were more plentiful. Mr. Cooper stated that County Treasurer Wasson would make the balance of his settlement this afternoon, amounting to about So,000, and that this would afford some relief, although it would still be necessary for the legislature to at once pa's the bill authorizing a temporary loan of $60,000. The provisional board of the Insane hospital will meet this afternoon, and will, "as is customary, allow the monthly bills, which amountjtoJoverS24,000. Some provision must be made at once for the payment of this mone/, as well as for the continued maintenance of this and the other state benevolent institutions. The law provides that they shall be paid out of the general fund—and in anticipation of a scareity of money the treasurer has, within the past fpw days, requested contractors ana others who had warrants for considerable amounts against the state, not to present them until the financial depression was relieved. .Mr. P. H. McCormack, of Columbus, who is building the Logansport asylum, has such a warrant for $16,000, and will not insist on being paid the money at once. The state officers say that there is little or no doubt that the legislature will pass the relief bill within a day or two—especially as the members now recognize the exigencies of the case. The $3,900 appropriated to defray the expenses of the Indiana exhibit at the New Orleans exposition has not yet been paid, and General Carnahan, who promised that the money should be forthcoming this week, told a News_ reporter this morning that he had gone into bank and borrowed that amount on his own responsibility, for a short time, until the state woula be able to pay it back.

Senate bill, No. 20, prohibiting the employment of children under twelve years of age in mines or factories, was read a second time as amended.- Senator Bailey tried to get the original fourteen-year clause inserted in lieu of twelve years. The bill is a tradts union bill, and the fourteen-year clause is not intended to prevent cruelty or hardship to children, but to coerce employers into the employment of men to do children's work. Discussion showed {hat in many cases boys of twelve or thirteen years did ligHt work that materially aided in the support of the widowed mothers, or sick parents.^ Bailey urged that the democratic platform pledged the party, to a fourteen-year-old clause, nevertheless a large number of democrats were for the twelve year limit, and Senator Foulke said, though a republican, he is in favor of the democratic platform on this point. Senator Magee favored the twelve-year-old clause, lie used to work when he was twelve years old. He was a printer, and for many years worked hard at the, case, and the money he earned at twelve years of age was an absolute necessity to him at that period. Men ought to be manly enough to give the boys a chance. Perhaps in coal mines, where labor was severe, the fourteen vearjlimit should prevail, but in light labor the boys and girls should bo allowed to learn to labor. Dr. McClure spoke in the same strain. The* question was one of family jurisdiction parents knew the needs of home, and if a boy or girl of 12 aoor, they should be allowed to do so. Senator Campbell, of Hendricks, spoke to the same point. Sena.tor Day said that in his district the people were opposed to the 14-year limit. Senator Faulkner opposed the bill. He worked when he was a boy, and the work had been the best source of his education. The bill was unfair it had no application to farmers, who worked their boys from dawn to sunset. The bill was to pamper a selfish lot of workingmen who wished to crush, the independence of manhood out of children. Senator Marshall said that nobody had aright to dictate to parents as to how or when they should teach their children to work. Senator Willard said that he was heartily in favor of the bill as originally presented, with the four-teen-year limit, but if he were not he would still vote for it, because when the democrats made a platform saying that it was "in favor of prohibiting the employment of children in mines and factories," upon that declaration the" workmen had voted the democrats into power. Senator Youche was against the bill. The prisons were full of men and women who become criminals from early education in habits of idleness, but no bey was ever ruined by early industry. He applauded those democrats who dared to differ from the platform. Republicans had placed similar clap trap resolutions in their platforms, and lie, as-a republican, had never failed to express his dissent. The bill was in the interest of a party of workmen who were anxious to dictate to capitalists and parents.

The senate adjourned without action on the bill. JOINT CONVENTION.

The general assembly met in joint convention this afternoon to clect the democratic caucus nrminees to the positions chosen some time ago. Th«ie included Lizzie O. Callis, of Morgan, state librarian John Horn, Floyd, prison director south George Majors, Benton, prison director north B. H. Burrell, Jackson, trustee Insane asylum John P. Green, Clinton, trustee Deaf and Dumb institution, and Calvin Stogdill, Decatur, Blind asylum. Senator Magee presided, and the election was by a strict party vote.

LEGISLATIVE NOTES.

Representative Patton this afternoon, introduced representative, senatorial and congressional apportionment- bills. By the latter the eighth and eleventh districts are made certain democratic.

A majority of the judiciary committee having reported favorably on Foulke's civil service bill, Sen tor McCullough has given notice of a minority report, and 4he matter will be debated on Friday at 2 o'clock.

Every senator has received a letter and circular from the International Workingmen's association deprecating Foulke's dynamite bill, and justifying workmen in the use of "daggers and dynamite" against "tyrants, capitalists and monopolists," and including under those terms pretty nearly every man that owns a pair off ahts. The letter also expresses detestation of the military bill.

TAXING VEHICLES.

A bill has been prepared authorizing cities to license and levy a special tax on vehicles, including therein coaches, hacks, drays, omnibusses, carriages, buggies, carts, wagons and other vehicles owned by pereons living within the city, or by outsiders who habitually use the same in hauling produce, milk, brick or other articles into the city. It is provided that no family carriage or buggy shall be taxed to exceed five dollars per annum, and no other vehicle to exceed twelve and that all special taxes collected in this way shall be used toward making and repairing streets. The bill is short and to the point, and .will be pressed at once upon the legislative attention.

Treasurer Qoopcr?« New Bond. Yesterday's Indianapolis News. State Treasurer Cooper will "begin his new term of office to-morrow, but will not be able by that time to give the $700,000 bond wh&h is required by the legislative enactment of last Friday, ^hich was signed by the governor on the same day. "It is impossible to give such a bond on such a short notice," said 31 r. Cooper this morning, "unless I could get W. H. English, W. C.Depanw,and others to go on it. I have Governor Gray's assurance that I can have what time is necessary for me vo secure bondsmen, and in the meantime I am held under my old bond. It is. not an easy thing to get men to go your security for such a large amount of money, but I think I will be able to give the bond within a few days." In the governor's office his secretary stated, that it was not necessary to give the new bond by tomorrow, and this opinion was endorsed by Attorney General Hurd, when the re-t •porter questioned him about the matter.

Mr. Cooper declined to give the name of any of the gentlemen who he is depending upon as sureties.

The Word Will Not Save It, Chicago Journal. When, some years ago, hnman naked--iiess became sociably fashionable, it was called the "model-artist style."

"Well madam," said a fashionable physician to a wealthy lndv patient, "if you don't like my prescriptions, perhaps you had better try Parker's Tonic, or some other quack stuff." "You don't mean it, Doctor," she answered, "but your advice may be good for all that. Sometimes what you call 'quack stufF is the best and most scientific medicine after all." She got a bottle of Parker's Tonic and it cured her of neuralgia arising-from disordered stomach and nerves. She told her friends, and now they all keep a doctor at home in the form of Parkers tonic.
