before using two boxes of the CUTICURA four
cakes OF CUTIcURA SOAP, AM one bottle of SuTI-
CURA kESOLvENT, was entirely cured.
In addition to my own case, my baby boy, then
about hve months old, was suffering with what
supposed TO be the same disease as niue to such
an extent that his head was coated over with a
solid scab, from which there was constant flow
OF pus which was sickening TO look upon. besides
two large tumOr-lke kernels on the back of his
head. Thanks to you and your wonderful CUTI-
CURA REMEDIES. his scalp is perfectly Well. and
the kernels have been scattered so hat there is
only one II tie place by his left ear, aud that is
healing nicely. Instead of n coating of Scabs he
has a fine coat of hair, much better than that
which was destroyed by the disease. 1 would

If Alexander Sullivan had anything to do
with the conspiracy that put Cronin out of
the way. the verdict of the jury cannot
bring peace to his soul. Had O'Sullivan,
Burke and Coughlin been sentenced to death
the chances of a confession duplicating him
might have been more immediate; but the
sentence to Imprisonment for life merely
distributes the same chances over an indefi-
mite term of years. sand as time goes on
and the passions OF the hour cool in the
breasts of the convicts, the chances THAT
some one of them will confess continually
increase. But If the leader of the triangle
is innocent he has nothing to fear from all
these possibilities.

Curran's Testimony.

WAUPAcA, Wis, Special Telegram, June q.
The state closed it's evidence in the Curran
trial to-day at noon After recess Judge Cate
made statement of the line of defense to
the jury, occupying about an hour and a
half Judge Cate Sid that the defense would
prove beyond any doubt to the Jury that
Hazeltine fired the first shot at John Curran
before the latter shot him; that Hazeltine
had not only made numerous threats upon
Curran's life prior to the shooting but had
that very morning threatened to kill him,
and that it was while attempting to carry
out this threat that Curran fired the fa5al
shot Johu Cnrran was put upon the
stand He said he was forty-three
years old and engaged in the hotel
business at Stevens Point with his brother
Henry; that April 8, while returning from
the water closet to the Curran house, he saw
W. w. Hazeltine walking south on the oppo-
site side of the street; that US soon as Hazel
tine saw him the latter stepped forward and,
pulling large revolver from his pocket, fred
Two shots at the defendant, which he
lodged. Immediately the witness pulled
gun that he always carried with him and
fired two shots in return. but not until after
Hazeltine had fired a third shot It was one
OF the shots fired by Curran that caused the
death of Hazeltine. Witness denied that his
brother Henry fired any shots in the street ut
that time, as testified by some Witnesses for
the prosecution. An adjournment was taken
until to- morrow,

The Troublesome Flatheads.

No further hostilities have occurred on the
Flathead reservation The whole trouble
originated from renegades of the tribe, who
hang around railroad stations and do moth
ing but get drunk whenever an opportunity
offers. The great majority of the Flathead
Indians are on the mountain sides in bands
near Ravllla watching The movements ofthe
troops and awaiting the decision of the coun-
Gil OF chiefs. Ii it is decided to turn over the
murderers the trouble will end at once. If
not the renegade following of the fugitives
from justice. small number of worthless
Indians will have to be overpowered.
Sheriff Heytron has reached Missoula.
He states that Kochet, the Indian
killed, was the murderer of Demer's book
keeper and also of the Indian Koonsaur on
the reservation. The pow-wow has ended,
and the chiefs have refused to do anything
without orders from head quarters The
sheriff thinks the only way nowto capture
the men without an open war is for the
government to offer a reward. II this is
done many half-breeds on the reserve will en-
trap the men. The sheriff has so far acted
upon theinstructions ofIndian Agent Roman,
but if he has anything further to do with it
will operate on his own account. Matters
will remain the same until the department.

their foe in that the train bore off the sher-
ifs party when they effected their escape.
Superintendent Dickinson has telegraphed
the governor and the war department for
troops to assist in protecting the
property of the railroad compan Y. 1t is
rumcred that the colored troops were with
drawn from the reservation, for what reasons
is not known. The Indians are repor-ed to
have sent their women and children to the
hills, which means that the trouble is not yet
ended. 1t will not be surprisingly the troops
will have to kill dozen or more of the disaf-
fected Indians yet before quiet is restored

Midnight Murder.

La CROSSE, Special, June 27.-Lena Weber,
pretty girl of German pareptage,
eighteen years old, lies unconscious and
towering between life and death at her
fathers house in this city, while all the police
and many citizens arc searching for her as
sailant and probable murderer. Early this
morning the girl and her sister were aroused
from sleep by hearing sound in the room
They called out Who's there?D No reply was
made. Again they called what's wanted?s
Its money I want replied voice

some, said one ofthe girls, getting out Of
the bed and endeavoring to reach a door to
the next room. An unseen hand reached
out IN the darkness and the keen blade OF a
KNIFE slashed the girl across the left side,
making cash thirteen inches long, begin
ming near the spine and reaching around
and up The left side. It was deepest at. the
front, where it opened the lung cavity and
severed The diaphragm and muscular tissues

he never knew recovery in such case.
Inc girl Lena fell to the floor
with a scream. Her sister srrang
out OF bed on the side opposite to the bur

the latter disappeared as he had entered by

street, While in the window his form was

that part OF the city were searching through
the railroad yard, among lumber piles, and
elsewhere. A number of uramps and sus-
pcious characters have been arrested, some
one of whom migh5 be the one wanted, but
of that there is no evidence. The girls

War over Iron Mines.

WASHINGTON, Special Telegram, June 81
There is a little war between the owners of
iron mines at Duluth For several days
4. d. Mallet, of the firm of NAL
let Hartmann, Duluth, has been in
the city, spending most OF his time
in the interior department.. He is one of the
parties interested in the Sioux scrip cases.
Eaton and Merritt case, which has
once been adversely decided against the
Sioux scrip holders. His present mission
is to have rehearing for Chip
pewa scrip location in the iron region The
scrip was located on valuable iron land and
Mr.. Mallet holds that it is worthless.
although the lands have passed to the Min
suinghis work to-day, HIS. Pickands of Duluth
one ofthe principals in the Minnesota Iron
COMPANY, appeared at the interior depart
ment and entered his protest against the re-
hearing. This will make general fight,
as in all probability Mallet & Hartman
will attack the title of the Minnesota
Iron company to some OF the best
lands in the iron district, claiming that the
original settlers who made the entries and
proved up on the lands were never near
them, and obtained the first title OF thell
through fraud. This will also precipl-
tate q fight of no small proper
lions, and it is intimatcd that a rival
road to the Duluth & Iron Range may be
built TO the mines. While the contests are
pending the Iron Rarge company, said to be
owned and controlled by the Mime
sofa Iron company, will not extend its
line to the mines that have been opened
farther north. The owners OF these
mines Intimate that they will secure another
road The little trouble originally stirred
up by the Sioux scrip cases may develop into
endless litigation over titles to the valuable
Minnesota iron mines.
