Bara Tomorrow Kmu Committee on Interior De partment Expenditures A Plans Hearings. (Continued from First Page.) y courage plans of abolishing- some mili tary posts In Wyoming that the Wyom ing people didn't want to lose. Anyhow, a huge military expednlon was required to round up those Indians, march them off to Fort Mead, S. D., and thence, a year later, back to their reservation jfow they are bringing a huge damage suit against the Government for taking their lands from them, with strong prospects that the Government will ,loso a verdict for some millions. The Graham committee wants to be shown. Who was responsible? Who profited? Who got the lands and how? The committee is told of a case in which the attorney of record for ono Indian tribe, to prevent the Indjans be ing robbed of their lands, is himself defendant In a number of suits, brought by the .Department of Justice, charged with grabbing those same lands' The Craham investlgatigators are awfully curious about this amusing contretemps. An Indian gets his citizenship rights and the privilege of selling his prop- J crty. when the Government administra tors see fit to give them. It Is charged that the land-grabbers somewhow man age to get things so fixed that the least competent Indians. those who are will ing to sell out for a song get th rights, while the thrift! and competent ones, who refuFe to sell, are denied these rights. The committee is going to abk a lot of questions, to call Indianr, and to find out about this alleged system An Interesting case has been reported to the committee, of an Indian who Is ft Carlisle College graduate, well edu cated, civilized and a good business roan. This Indian has a cousin who is mentally defective, notoriously Incom petent to manage his affairs. The col lege graduated Indian cannot get his citizenship rights and the privilege of managing his own property; but the half-imbecile cousin got thse same rights and sold his property for the rong. They say it was a song without words, too. The committee just merely wants to ltnow. It's "from Missouri." Gets Carnegie Medal For Bravery of His Son G.

COUNTING VOTES Result Is Held Up to Await Pleasure of a Committee of Tellers. The delegates to tho Mothers' Con gress, held their annual election of of ficers this morning. At least, there were several hundred mothers who said that they had duly cast their ballots in fa vor -of their choice for the respectivo offices. However, the most diligent of foits of anv of the ordinary plebeian delegates to find out from these vested with the higher honor of being "tellers" what the results were, failed. About 2 o'clock it wag rumored that the "counting committee" might hold a session later in the afternoon. The report could not be verified, however, and the National Congress of Mothers j seems to be in a fair way to start ,on the next year of its existence offlcerless. Meanwhile the ballot boxes, sealed with all the formality due such an important event, stand reproachfully In a corner. Mitchell to Recover. KANSAS CITY. Mo.. May 2.

Eight years ago Mr. Tait was sent to this city by the parent Institution to organize a branch and dffrlng the In tervening years he hasmianaged it with success. Two local branches have been started, one In the Central Market and the other on Connecticut avenue, near K street. Said Alfred J. McGrath, chairman of the advisory committee of the local branch: "We regret the decision of Mr. Taft to leave us; he lias been intimately as sociated with this bank since Its estab lishment, and I know that the officers of the Institution are sorry to accent, his reflgnaticn. I know th-it I am verr reluctant to have him leave." Mr. Talt has made no nlans to ioln any other institution, although he ex pects to remain In Washington, and after a prolonged vacation probably will re-enter business. i THIS SHAMPOO BEST FOR HOME USE Soaps and. most ready-prepared shampoos are ruinous to the hair," writes Mae Martyn In the Los Angelas Herald, "as they contain alkali which Is responsible for scalp troubles and dull, scanty, falling, brittle hair-oft-times mistakably attributed to wear ing false hair. "For restoring tho natural gloss and flufUness to dull, stringy, scant hair there Is nothing to compare with a shampoo made by dissolving a tea spoonful of canthrox In a cup of hot water. It makes a creamy, cleansing lather that removes every particle of dirt, dandruff, and excess oil from the scalp and stops Itching. It rinses oft easily and dries In Just a few, minutes. "This particular shampoo gives to the hair a most pleasing richness and flufflness. and will have the commen dation of every woman troubled with scanty, short, brittle, or faded hair who uses it."

I was afflicted with a terrible blood disease, which was in spots at first, but afterwards spread all over my body. These broke out Into sores, and it is easy to imagine the suffering; I endured: When I had finished my first bottle of S. S. S. I was greatly improved, and was delighted with the result. I was soon entirely well, and my skin was as clear as apiece of glass. a. L. MEYEBI 68 Clinton St.,Newark, N. J. Contagious Blood Poison, as the name indicates, is an infectious blood disease, of such intense nature that once the virus gets into the circulation, no portion of the body is free from its destructive force unless it is promptly checked. It usually begins with a tiny sore or pimple as the only outward evidence of its presence. But in a short while its many symptoms begin to make their unwelcome appear ance. The mouth and throat ulcerate, itching rashes appear on the body, the hair comes out easily, brown splotches appear on the limbs, etc. So highly contagious js the disease that it is sometimes communicated from one person to an other by the use of the same toilet articles or handling .the clothes of an infected person. It is a dangerous poison and should not be trifled with; the blood should be cleansed as quickly as possible of the destructive virus. S. S. S. has been curing Contagious Blood Poison lor more than forty years. It goes right dow n into the circulation, and removes every particle of the poison. While curing the dis ease S. S. S. adds richness and nourishing powers to the blood, and a person who is cured by the use' of S.iS. S. will find that every portion of the system has been benefited bv the treatment. S. S.
