It doesn't turn your hair sud denly black and make it look dead and lifeless. But gradu ally the old color conies back to your hair, all the rich, dark color it used to have. And it stops falling of the hair. Even if vour hair isn't com- - , ing out, isn t turning gray, isn t too short, isn t in the least unsatisfactory, yet you certainly want a fine dressing for it. You can't get anything better than Ayer's Hair Vigor. It keeps the scalp clean and healthy, makes the hair grow rapidly, prevents it from fall ing out, and does not allow a single gray hair to appear. One dollar bottle.

Tho nmendment was defeated on a rising vote, ID to 33, but Mr. Smith mado tho point of order of no quorum nnd final notion on the amendment went over.

Mr. Itoberts approved the general Idea of legislation for tho exchange of sil ver dollars for gold. Ho said It would not add anything to tho burden of tho gold re serve. The only demand on tho gold ro Biyvo would be for export purposes nnd tho government was bound to meet that demand In nny event. Mr. Roberts wns cross-questioned qulto sharply by Representatives Cochran of Missouri and Shnfroth of Colo rado, representing tho silver element on the committee, and Mr. Cochran announced that tho opposition to tho proposed legis lation would ask for a hearing later.

Tho furnishing of this room has long been tho subject ot 'grave concern to many who havo realized tho delicacy of tho task, and that the art department should undertake It seems especially fitting, Tho question of socurlng tho means to carry on the work was the first thing to bo considered and tho department has re cently formulated a plan which, If suc cessful, will not only greatly help tho fund, but It will bring manifold general benefits.

WHST POINT, N. Y Jan. 17. The con grcsslonal committee held only two sessions at the West Point Military academy today. Tho afternoon session lasted only a little over an hour. Only two witnesses were examined todny. Tho first was Cadet James Prentice, who had accused the Into Oscar I'. Hooz ot feigning to read his Ulblo when ho had n novel hidden Insldo tho coer. After n long examination by tho commltteo Prentice said ho believed ho was mistaken and Poor, might havo been reading n lesson leaf or u supplement to the lllble. Tho other and moro Important witness wns Cndet Douglass MacArthur, of whom tho probers after facts about hazlug had heard a great deal slnro they came here, MacArtt ur stoutly denied that he had ever fainted or become unconscious from violent exercising, and Insisted that ho had not been treated nny moro harshly thunhls tent mates and several classmates. Ho told the commltteo that ho had been feeling under tho weuther before ho had been hazed on tho night In question, and swore positively that ho had neither convulsions norhystcrla In consequence. Tho whole matter, he said, had been greatly exaggerated and the story that cotton had been stuffed Into his mouth to stlfio his groans was perfectly absurd. He acknowledged, however, that Cadets Dockory and Perry had exercised him until his muscles been mo cramped and ho lost all control over them. Ho said ho lay on his cot nnd moaned, but did not cry out. MncArthur's examination will be resumed when tho commltteo meets ugaln tomorrow. Novel IiikIiIc of lllble.

General Dick questioned tho cadet closely with reference to this action. Tho witness said tho book was a paper-covered French novel, but later on tho general mado him admit that he could not swear positively that It was. Ho also had to acknowledge that It might havo possibly been a lesson leaf or a supplement to tho bible. "To whom did you tell this?" "He Is tho president of the cadet branch ot tho Young Men's Christian association." "When did you tell him?" "While tho cadet foot ball team was In Philadelphia on tho 1st day of last De cember,." "So you kept this Incident to yourself for over two years, until you heard that Mr. Dooz was dead or dying?" "Yes, sir." "What brought up tho recollection of the episode?" "Wo were all reading about Hooz'3 charges In tho Philadelphia newspapers." "What charges?" "Ho had stated that ho was killed by tho hazing ho received In this nendemy," replied tho witness, who vlduntly did not sco tho "bull" he had made. Tho witness told of being Jiazcd by Cadet Hoy during' his lira your C tho academy. Ho was sick during tho day prior to being havod nnd ho had done twelvo eagles and becomo faint, and told Foy that he had been 111.

Under Judge Smith's questioning tho wit ncss became confused In describing tho dif ference between tho spoken lino and the acted line In reference to "dead beating" to ifyVvs tyfV branch at Oraco chapel on Tuesday evening was In every, way a success.

Tho commltteo Is desirous o( having you tell In your own way tho manner In which you were hazed, the forms of haz ing, tho names of the men who hazed you and tho consequences," MacArthur replied: "I had been nbout n month In tho summer camp of 1SA9 ns a 'plebo' when the hazing, an account of which I have rend In tho pnpers, occurred.

"Now, tell us the names of tho men who wero hazing you?" "Cadets Dockery mid Harry." Mr. Drlggs tried to get MacArthur to admit that ho was seriously upset by the violent exercises ho was required lo go' through, but the witness would not.
