Hearing First Case In

Martin Denny, the saloon man, who
was srrested three weeks ago for sell
ing liquor on Sunday, and whose case
was to have been the first to be heard
In the new municipal court will be heard
this afternoon In the old building. The
plan to move to the new building today
was changed on account of a few minor
changes found necessary.
The police department will move to
morrow, The detective and woman s de
partment are already installed In the
new -quarters.
Judge Stevenson yesterday began re
vising procedure in his court. The first
thing to be changed is the system of
keeping court records. For years the
clerk of the municipal court has kept
what Is called a "court Journal." This
Is a book that costs IS. Ten such books
are used each year. It is the plan of
th Judge to entirely eliminate this
book.
By eliminating th court journal,
much time and work will be saved n
the clerk's office. Work grows heavier
each day, until two men are constantly
busy handling th business. The Judge
also arranged to have the clerk keep
an index to the court records. This has
never been done.

Ontario Postmaster Under Fire
Declares He Will Stick and
Fight It Out;
(BpetUI to The Journal.)
Ontario, Or., Dec. 8. A determined
fight Is being' made against A. U
Bprouie as postmaster of Ontario, a Job
he has held for nearly 16 years. His
fourth term will expire in March, 1914.
Charges were recently filed with Post
master General Burleson at Washington
ag-alnst Postmaster Bprouie, principally
charging Sproule with pernicious poll
leal aotlvlty while holding the position
as postmaster. Other charges of a seri
ous nature were also made, but it can
not be learned what these other charge
were, as the persons responsible for
them are very reticent at present.
It seems that Sproule, while acting as
postmaster, also ran for sheriff of Mal
heur county on the Republican ticket
a few years ago, but was decisively de
feated by his Democratio opponent
A postofflc inspector from Portlsnd
recently visited Ontario and made an In
vestigation of the charges against Mr.
Bprouie, and as a result requested
Sproule's resignation. Sproule refused
to resign and says he will fight th
charges.
Several prominent Democrats have
been seeking the office of postmaster,
which carries a salary of I2E00 per
year. Among these who are actively
seeking the nomination are David Mo
trin, B. K. .Test and J. R. Gregg.

MAY SEND COOS POST
PARCELS BY STEAMER
Roseburg, Or., Dec. 8. So great has
become the increase of mail traffic
over the stage lines to Coos county since
the parcel post business began that no
on has, as yet, offered a bid for car
rying these mails during th forthcom
ing year. This has lead, it is reported,
to negotiation with the steamship com
panies for carrying all such parcels by
water from San Francisco or Astoria to
Marshfield. If the parcel post business
Is transported to Coos county by water
It will greatly relieve the burden of
traffic over the stag road from here.
HOW I MADE
MY HAIR GROW
Woman With Marvelously Beautiful
Kalr dives SlmpI Home Presorlp
- tlon Wnloh She Used With Xost
Bemarkabl .Kesolts.
I was greatly troubled with dandruff
and fairing hair. I tried many adver
tised hair preparations and various pre
scriptions, but they all signally failed;
many of them made my hair greasy so
it was impossible to comb it or do it up
properly. I think that many of the
tnings 1 trien were positively injurious I
and from my own experience I cannot '
too strongly caution you against using
preparations containing wood alcohol
and other poisonous substances. I be
lieve they injure the roots of the hair.
After my long list of failures, I finally
found a simple prescription which I
can unhesitatingly state Is beyond doubt
the most wonderful thing for the hair I
have ever seen. Many of my friends
have also used It and obtained wonder
ful effects therefrom. It not only is a
powerful stimulant to the growth of th
hair and for restoring gray hair to its
natural color, but It is equally good for
removing dandruff, giving the hair I If
snd
brilliancy, etc., and for the purpose
of keeping the scalp in first-class con
dition. It also makes the hair easier to
comb and arrange in nice form.! I have
a rriena wno usea it two monins ana
during that time It has not only stopped
th falling of his hair and wonderfully
Increased its growth, but It practically
restored aU of his hair to its natural
color. You. can obtain the Ingredients
for making this wonderful preparation
from almost any druggist Th prc
scrlDtlon In as follows:
Bay Rum. 6 ox.; Menthol Crystals, Vi j
drachm; Lavona de Composse, 2 ox. If
ou line it perfumed add 1 arachm or
your favorlt perfume, . This, however,
is not necessary. Apply night and
morning; rub thoroughly into the scalp.
