A Wise Selection. The election of Howard Brooks as chairman of the Progressive city committee is satisfactory assurance that the affairs of the party in Richmond will be ably handled. Mr. Brooks has had wide experience as an executive in party organization, having acted as secretary of both the Republican and Progressive county committees, severing his connection with the former party promptly
after the Chicago convention episode, and the organization of the Progressive party. While Mr. Brooks is familiar with political affairs he is not a professional politician, and he is a conscientious and thoroughly reliable man.

WORK ON HAWKINS DAM TO CONTINUE Promoters of Project Declare That People Are Unduly Excited.
Work on the Hawkins dam at North Seventeenth street will start again as noon as the plans have been reviewed by the directors of the Hawkins park and lake project. It is maintained by the officials of the company which is promoting the proposition that the dam will in no way be a menace to public safety
nor will it result in the destruction of property. The factories in the river bottom will be protected should the river rise, say the park promoters. "The fact that the government is expending millions of dollars to build dams every year should be an argument in favor of the local dam," said Postmaster Haas, one of the Commercial club representatives who is interested ia the matter. Richard Sedgwick, manager of the company believes the people are unduly excited because of the terrible catastrophes which have occurred near this city. 'None of the floodswere caused by dams bursting," said Mr. Sedgwick. "The work on the dam
will start soon," he said. "There is positively no danger of the people of this city becoming alarmed because of the Hawkins dam" said President S. E. Swayne, of the Commercial club. Mr. Swayne desires the people of the city to understand that the local dam will be a $20,000 structure of steel and concrete. "There are sluice ways by which the dam can be regulated to drain the entire lake," he says. "The dam does not have to hold back nearly as large amount of water as was held back by the wooden structure at the Main street bridge. This structure was built many years ago and was made of wood. This dam held back the water from Whitewater together with its three forks until the worst of the flood was over." Mr. Swayne believes that if this dam ia capable of holding back the amount of water it did, the people should not be alarmed at the Hawkins dam which is constructed and approved by the most competent engineers in this section.
Master of Billions is Dead.
A remarkable man died in Rome today J. Pierpont Morgan, master of billions and as great a genius in the world of finance as Napoleon was in the art of war. But not a tear will be shed at his passing, in marked contrast with the death of the conqueror of Europe. Despite the remarkable power that was his he had simplified the management of his affairs, which extended all over the world, in such a complete manner that his death will not disturb in the least business operations in this and other countries. Under the deplorable system which the American government for years tolerated, Morgan was able to accumulate hundreds of millions of dollars and to dominate practically all of the great business interests in this country. Had this genius of finance been a thoroughly unscrupulous and dishonest man there is no
telling what the fate of this republic would have been. Fortunately for the people of this country, Morgan was content with the role of money king. He did not seek political honors and only interfered in the affairs of state when his interests were threatened.
The American people are grateful to Morgan for his effective methods in checking the panic of 1907 by dumping millions into
the frenzied market, but they do not want a successor named to
his throne in the empire of dollars, for men of the type of Morgan
are too heavy a burden for any people to carry.
They are heart and soul behind the movement which has
gained such impetus the last few years, to restore economical con
ditions to a more normal and equitable basis and to again foster and encourage competition, of which Morgan was an open and
dangerous enemy.
Describing the remarkable financial machine which Morgan
constructed we quote the following interesting extract from Mc-
Clure's Magazine for April:
Every year the firm of Morgan distributes to investors about a quarter of
a billion dollars of securities, principally bonds. For doing this is must have the most remarkable machinery in the world. It is, in the first place, a private bank, in which there are deposits upwatd of $100,000,000. With this it can perform the usual functions of a financial
bank, that is, it can hold great quantities of securities on their way to the investor, and still have left, for its protection in time of sudden stress, millions of resources in the most liquid form on earth "call" loans against stockmarket security, which can be turned into money in an instant. In addition to the distributing power of its house, it has its branches in Philadelphia, London and Paris. It is in close and friendly relations through directorships of its partners with the great security-buying and selling agencies of this country, the financial banks and trust companies and insurance companies of New York. And, in addition, scores of smaller jobbers and retailers of bonds come into Morgans office to take their shares of new issues.
The flotation of single issues, up to ten or one Hundred or one hundred and seventy million dollars of securities at one time, seems to the average man a mysterious and almost incredible feat. It is merely a great piece of merchandising. And, when each issue is split up between jobbers and purchasers, many of whom like the New York trust companies and financial banks and insurance companies each have assets running into the hundreds of millions, it is easy to understand that no one agency need take from a security manufacturer like Morgan's house, any overstock of the goods which it is its daily business to handle.
DAYTON Ohio, March 31. The stork suffered no Interference because of the catistrophe and perofrmed its work as faithfully and effectively as though the city had undergone no serious disturbance. Mr. and Mrs. James Gebhart reside in a two-story frame residence at the southwest corner of Fifth and Hawthorne streets. Their three children had been taken to another home and when the waters rushed down Fifth 6treet, Mr. and Mrs. Gebhart climbed to the second floor for safety. Mrs. Gebhart was desperately ill. Tuesday night, frantic, Mr. Gebhart rushed to the window and called to Dr. Clagett, whose ofice is on Fifth street about 300 feet east. Dr. Clagett was unable to reach the Gebhart home, but, seizing a piece of cardboard, made a megaphone and through it dictated directions to
Mr. Gebhart and thus the little boy was ushered into being. Wednesday morning a boat removed Mrs. Gebhart and infant to the Fourth Presbyterian church emergency hospital, but had no physician's attendance until Thursday. Mother and babe are doing fine. It has been suggested that the babe be christened 'Attic," but Mrs. Gebhart said today she would not give him any name that suggested the disaster. Two children were born to Hungarian women at the Euclid Avenue U. B. church Wednesday. Two babes were also born at the maternity hospital established at the home of Mrs. Allen Thomas in Dayton View. Reports from other sections say five babes are known to have been born in boats while their mothers were being removed to places of safety.

Lee B. Nusbaum Tells Of Hamilton Condition
Lee B. Nusbaum, of the Richmond Commercial club was one of the first to cross the river into East Hamilton from the west side of that city. Mr. Nusbaum was rowed across the river in a boat at a point near where the High street bridge formerly stood. "The damage there is terrible," said Mr. Nusbaum. "One mail carrier told me he had been over his route and
from Cincinnati are being delivered in East Hamilton. The relief work is in charge of J. K. Cullen, president of the Niles Tool works, who sent a message to Richmond, praising the work of this city in assisting the stricken city.

County Assessor Mathews announced
today that in ail prooaoiiity a million dollars would not be raised in Wayne county this year from taxation. The
6tate board of tax commissioners have been urging the Wayne county officials to make every effort to raise that
amount of taxes in the county. It was
estimated by the officials that th sum
of $1,000,000 could be raised which ex
ceeds the taxes of former years by
several thousands of dollars.
"If the assessors succeed in turning
in $S50,000 they will be doing well."
said Mr. Mathews. The county assessor believes the stae authorities will be satisfied with that sum. It is not probable that tax ferrets will be sent here to find sequestered property.

found that more than a hundred hous-, mark. The damage to the business
es had been torn from their foundations. The damage to the residential district may be judged from the damage done on this one route. "The business district of the city is also in a terrible condition, but it is an impossibility to tell or write of the conditions as we found them. It is enough to say that human mind can not conceive of the terrible sights that
met our eyes as we were taken about the city. "At the morgue the body of a woman was brought in and in one shoe was found her name and address. The body had been washed down stream for more than fourteen miles by the

Mighty few of us are able to follow the example of wealthy easterners who, when they have a touch of lung trouble or a chronic cold, take a trip to the pine barrens of North Carolina, "the land of the long leaf pine." There it is always summer and cold troubles are soon banished by the warm dry' air, spicy with the odor of uncounted leagues of pine forests. But the local druggists have recently received a treatment that is almost as good. It is the invention
of a North Carolina druggist, who discovered a process of combining, in the form of a salve, the Carolina pine tar with Menthol from Japan, Camphor from the Isle of Formosa, and the oils of Cubeb. Juniper Thymol and Kucalyptol. By this process the heat of the body releases these ingredients in the form of vapors when the pre
paration is applied over the throat and chest. These soothing, medicated vapors are breathed in all night long, at the same time the preparation is absorbed through the skin, taking out the soreness. It seems a remarkable claim, but croup really is relieved In fifteen minutes and roost colds go over night. Of course severe cases require longer treatment and the pores of the skin, over the throat, chest and back between the shoulder blades, should first be opened by applications of hot wet towels. Then the salve should be rubbed in well and covered with warm flannel cloths. The covering around the neck should be kept loose so the vapors arising may be freely inhaled. For all forms ot bronchial troubles, catarrh, asthma, tonsllitis. etc.. this new Jreatment will be found unusually effective. The Richmond druggists are show
ing their confidence in this preparation by selling it on 30 daya trial. With each sale they r1y a refund blank good for your money back If you are not delighted with the results. This treatment is known as Vicks Croup and Pneumonia Salve and comes in three sites. 25c, 50c and $1.00. The price is never cut.

Sight-Seers Throng Gem City To View Havoc of Flood DAYTON, March 31. Old-time political rallies, with their expected throngs, afforded no comparison with Dayton Sunday, when fully 50,000 people visited this stricken city. Sight-seers from points as far distant as 100 miles came to view the havoc of the flood and fire, and the military had its hands full looking after the crowds. They came in automobiles, carriages, on foot, motorcycles and even on hand cars. Several crews manned hand cars and wheeled over from Eaton and West Alexandria, while other small towns within 25 miles brought quotas in similar fashion. Dayton has never before seen such a visitation, even on a holiday. The visitors brought lunches and spent the day here, leaving only when compelled to do so by the martial law that prevails. Indianapolis, Cleveland and Columbus, Cincinnati and other points sent throngs.

Rowlett is familiar with emblaming and was placed in charge of the morgue at the cash register works after his release. Robert Williams of the Dayton Herald, formerly a linotype operator on the Palladium, and his wife were
driven from their home by the flood. They escaped into the next house,
which had a third story, by placing a door between the two dwellings and
walking across it. They took a chafing dish, some water and provisions.
Friday Williams joined a boat rescu

Slili! Ladies! Secret to Darken Faded Gray Hair Use Sage Tea
Sage Mixed With Sulphur Restores Natural Color and Lustre to Hair.
Why suffer the handicap of looking old? Gray hair, however handsome, denotes advancing age. We all know the advantage of a youthful appearance. Your hair is your charm. It makes or mars the face. When it fades, turns gray and looks dry, wispy and scraggly just a few aplications of Sage Tea and Sulphur enhance its appearance a hundred fold. Either prepare the tonic at home or get from any drug store a 50 cent bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy," ready to use; but listen, avoid preparations put up by
druggists, as they usually use too much Bulphur, which makes the hair sticky. Get "Wyeth's" which can always be depended upon to darken beautifully and is the best thing known to remove dandruff, stop scalp itching and falling hair. By using Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair. It does it so naturally and evenly you moisten a sponge or soft brush, drawing this through the hair, taking one small strand at a time, which requires but a few moments. Do this at night and
j by morning the gray hair disappears;
aiier anoiner application or two its natural color is restored and it becomes glossy and lustrous and you appear years younger.
