THE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA, GA. I I tT Wol PANDEMONIUM OVER AT AIKEN ■ 4 When Richards Declared He’d Vote For Blease, Things Cut Loose. Near Riot Results. Aiken, S. C.—Whon John C 4. Richards, candidate for governor, declared his in tention to vote for Governor Blease for the United States senate, here Tuesday afternoon ana followed up his declaration with a list of questions which he asked United Stales Senator E. D. Smith to answer, pandemonium broke loose and for fully fifteen minutes the shouting and yelling drowned out everything else. At one time it looked us ll' a fight might be started. A spectator-—in the audience was plying Mr. Richards with questions and yelling for Senator Smith, when one of his questions so angered Mr. Richards that he veached back and grabbed up a tumbler which was on the stand in front of the chairman and brandishing It in his hand denounced Ills tormentor, trouble being averted by the removal of the heckler, Friends of Mr. Richards and oppon ents made a rush for the stand, those favoring Snator Smith Jeering at the speaker and friends of Governor Blease and Mr. Richards surrounding him and stating they were determined that he should be allowed to speak. The chair man let the crowd run away with him apd so great was the disorder that the factions of both Smith and Blease vented their opinions unchecked for several minutes. Speaker Determined. Facing the screaming throng and say ing he was wetermined to finish reading the questions he asked the newspapers to answer about Senator Smith, Mr. Richards went through with them under the greatest difficulty and ever and anon having to stop when the din broke out. He asked where Senator Smith stood it, 1890 when the now senator B. R. Till man led the reformers to victory and overthrew the old ring rule; if Senator Smith was a member of the Haskell movement; why Senator Smith did not attend the recent state convention and use his efforts to prevent the passing or the new rules which the speaker said were an affront to the poor people and a hardship on the farmers designed to dis franchise thousands of while who cannot read and write; it the senator had raised the price of cotton; and nu merous other questions. All of which were received with shouts of derision by the Smith supporters and expressions of rapt approval by the Blease followers; Several tilts between Mr. Richards and members of the audience fanned the conflagration. One white-haired gen tleman arose and told Mr. Richards the crowd did not want him dipping into the senatorial lace and that he had nothing to do with Senator Smith. The speak er replied that Mr. Manning had arraign ed Governor Blease and this spectator had sat quiet and not objected, his fur ther statement being \ drowned In the shout which came from the throats of the Bleasites. Blames Newspapers. The questions asked of Senator Smith on the stump here by Mr. Richards were occasioned by the challenge of the latter to the newspapers that unless they let him alone and quit calling him “coat tail swinger” he was going to tell on the stump why he was for Governor Blease instead of Senator Smith. He promises another list as soon as the ones asked today arc answered. AQUATIC MEET AT THE LAKE ON AUGUST 28TH Preparations Will Be Made at Once For Making Out Com plete Program of the Eventß.

A method oT Hewing halrß In the hu man scalp in casen of partial or total baldness has been successfully used In several Instances by Dr. Szekely at the hospital of St. Stephene at Bud apest and a report appears In the Times. The number of hairs “planted" in the head of a patient has been as many qp 50,000. One hundred hairs tare drawn through punctures in the scalp to every square centimeter, and as both ends are left free the number lg thus 200, or over 1,000 to each square inch. Very fine gold wires are used, one live hundredth of an inch in diameter, and fine, long hairs from a woman’s head are at tached at the middle ao these. The gold loop or knot acts as an "anchor," and after sterilization Is Introduced Into the subcutaneous tissue, where It Is slightly twisted, and holds the hair permanently In position. It is stated that 600 hairs can thus be In troduced into the scalp within three quarters of an hour. Dr. Szekely has designed a special Instrument Tor introducing and fixing the gold wires. The latter are so light and so fine that the total amount of gold In the scalp after "planting" 60,00 hairs is only one gramme. The hair Is stated to appear perfectly nat ural, and a capsule of tissue appears to form around each gold wire knot. The Inflammation resulting from the treatment entirely dlsapears in from JO to J 2 days, ami In no case, so far, has any Intense Inflammation or sup puration resulted. The hair can be washed, brushed and treated with oil In the ordinary way, and one oT the earliest patients so treated, a lady; hag retained her hair intact, with tb* original luster and flexibility, for over seven years.
