HOW TO CURE SALT RHEUM AND
TETTER.

Many persons firmly believe that salt
rheum and tetter can not be cured and
quietly submit to be tortured by them. If
they would invest twenty-five cents in a
box of Cham berlain's Eye and Skin
Ointment and apply it as directed, they
would soon become convinced of their
error. 1t almost instantly relieves the
itching and burning sensation and has
cured many cases after they had resisted
all other treatment for from ten to twenty
years. Try it. For sale by j. R. Met

A BOLD ROBBERY.
Exciting Scene i'm the Bradford
National Bank.

BRADFORD, Penn. March 6.-About
II O'Clock this morning a man named
Kimball entered the Bradford National
Bapk with revolver in his hand.
When midway between the paying
teller's and discount clerks desk he
nimbly jumped oyer the high glass
partition and made a grab for the
money on the cashiers de;k. The
suddenness of the affair paralyzed the
clerks, but Cashier Tomlinson rushed
from his private Office and seized the
robber. AS he did so he received
a ball from the revolver in
the hands of the villain,
over the left hip, going clear
through him, and coming out over
the right hip. He dropped and the
robber escaped at the front door with
the money and ran down aside street.
The report of the revolver attracted
a crowd and a number of citizens
started in pursuit Kimball ran some
distance when he turned on his pur-
suers and shot A. l.. Bleich, a butcher,
in the abdomen, inflicting a dangerous
wound. He then placed the revolver
to his own head and fired, the ball
entering at the temple and killing him
instantly. The stolen money was
found in an inside pocket
of rubber coat which he
wore. Tomlinson and Bleich
are fatally hurt and can live but few
hours. Kimball was about 2S wears
Of age and was formerly an employe
of a producing firm. He was recently
injured on the Erie road, near Stani-
bury, i'll an accident for which he is
said to have received several hundred
dollars damages, since which time he
has been drinking heavily. He was
formerly real estate agent in Garden
City, Kansas, where his wife died,
leaving two girls. The whole city is
excited over the affair. Tomlinson
has a wife and two children, and is
held in great esteem.

TRUS SITS AND COMBINATIONS.
Senate Committee Report-New
Legislation Recommended.

ALBANY, March 6.-General Laws
Senate committee which has been
taking testimony in New York recent
ly on trusts of the various kinds,
made it's report to-day. The report
says: "However difficult the in
fluence which gives rise to these COM
binations may be, the main purpose
of the management and the effect of
all upon the public is the same, to-
wit: The aggregation of capital, the
power of controlling manufacture, the
output of various necessary COM
modities, and the requisition of the
destruction of competitive properties,
all leading to the final and conclusive
purposes Of annihilating competition
and enabling the combinations to fir
the price at which they would pur-
chase raw material from producers,
and at which they would sell refined
product to the consumer. In any
event the public at each end of the
industry, the producer and consumer
is, and is intended to be in a certain
sense, at the mercy of the syndicate,
combination or trust"
The report recommends new legis-
lation, and that the Attorney General
proceed against violation of the laws.

Sugar Refinery.
NEW YORK, March 6.--Claus Spreck-
els, the sugar king of the Pacific
slope, arrived from Philadelphia late
this afternoon and registered at the
Hoffman House. Owners of real
estate besieged his rooms tonight.
Many came with fully prepared plans
of desirable sites to locate a
sugar refinery. Spreckels spoke
frankly about the object of his
Eastern trip. He said that he
had determined to invest nearly
s., 900, 900 in a large refinery in the
East, either at New York, Baltimore
or Philadelphia. He had no doubt of
its success. His plans for refining
had all been made, and the only
points under Consideration are the
location and capacity Of building to
run the refinery. Water front and rail-
road facilities were, of course, neces-
sary. Mr.. Sprekels said that Phila-
delphia had offered two good sites,
having both requirements. Another
consideration was fuel, and this in
Philadelphia w0 much cheaper than
lin Baltimore or New York, and labor

SPEAKING OF THE TRUST
Spreckels said "Of course my aim
in putting up big refinery is to fight
the Sugar Trust. / shall oppose that
corporation tooth and nail. 1t has
been stepping on my toes in Califor-
mia, and several of my competitors
out there have joined the syndicate
and I intend to do all 1 can
to break it. l have emphat-
ically and repeatedly refused 10
join the monopoly, although very
heavy pressure has been brought to
bear upon me. With that end In
view l shall go into the open market
and bus sugar just as Havemeyer and
others do. A portion of my supplies
l may ship from the Spreckels' plan
taticn on the Sandwich Islands, and /
can sell sugar as low as the trust
can. There is little feeling between
some of the members of the trust
and myself because of my persistent
refusal to join them, but 1 can fghtit
out.

THE BEET SUGAR PROJECT.

Spreckels said that his beet sugar
mandatory in California would be
in operation next fall, and the ma
chinery, now in course of construc-
tion in Europe. would arrive in about
two months. The failures which
have resulted in the experiments in
producing beet sugar in this country,
principally in California, were caused
byinexperienced workmen. Spreckels,
in conclusion, reiterated his determi-
nation to carry out his plans for the
refinery of his own sugar in the East.
