Cured by Cuticura.

My disease (psoriasis) first broke out on
my left cheek, spreading across my nose,
and>almost covering my face. 1t ran into
my eyes. and the physician was afraid
would lose my eyesight altogether. 1t
spread all over my head, and my hair all
fell ont, until was entirely bald headed; !;
it then broke out on my arms and shoulders,
until my arms We're just one sore. 1t COW
cred my entire body, my face head and
shoulders being the worst. The white scabs
fell constantly from my head shoulders, and
arms; the skin would thick en- and be red
and very itchy, and would crack and bleed
if scratched. After spending many hun.
dreds Of dollars, | was pronounced incur
able. heard of the CUTICURA REMEDIES,
and after using two bottles CUTICgRA Re-
SOLVENT, l could see change; aud after

and when had used six bottles Of CUTIcURA

one cake of CUTICURA SOAP, | was cured
of the dreadful disease from which Ihad

JOHN KAHLER DROWNED.

The report of a tragic death in any CON-
munity at all times creates deeper gloom
than that cansei by the news of death from
natural causes and the sorrow is correspond
ingly greater when the unfortunate person
is well known and highly esteemed as was
John Kahfer who was drowned at the dam
across Mary's river short distance above
Corvallis about noon on Monday, May 10.
1890.
On the day mentioned Mr. Kahler and
Others were employed by Mr.. Fischer in
repairing the dam, the former being lower
ed, to the incline. in boat by means of a
rope held by his companions to accomplish
a portion of the work. Upon loosening one
of the boards in the dam such suction
was created as to partially or wholly upset
the boat, throwing the occupant out. He
clung to the boat for some time but the
large volume of water was so rapid upon
the incline that he was probably strangled,
and, unable to sustain his hold until his
companions could rescue him, he passed
into the swirl below after which he was
never seen alive. The body, which had
been held beneath the dam, was recovered
Tuesday. The father of the young man is
expected to arrive from Chicago tomorrow,
when the remains will be inferred in the
Masonic cemetery. Deceased was twenty
nine years of age, unmarried, and since his
arrival from Chicago about FIVE years ago,
he had been employed steadily about the
Corvallis Touring mills, and was an indus
trious and agreeable young man.

SUICIDE NEAR PHILOMATH.
MRS. FRANK WYATT TAKES HER LIFE BY
SHOOTING HERSELF WITH A REVOLVER.

MRS. FRANK WYATT TAKES HER LIFE BY
Mrs. Frank Wyatt, who lived with her
husband on the farm of VIM. Wyatt near
Philomath, committed suicide about
o'clock last Tuesday morning by shooting
herself in the right temple with a 32- calibre
Smith & Wesson revolver The following
are the particulars as near as can be learned.
She arose at the usual hour in the morning,
leaving her husband who had been out to a
band practice at Philomath the night be-
fore, IN bed asleep, and went to the kitchen
and told her mother and sister -in-laN that
she would get breakfast if they would milk
the cows, which they agreed to. She then
proceeded to get breakfast ready. After
doing this she went to the room where her
husband was asleep, procured revolver,
and lying down ON lounge in the room
shot herself as described. Her husband,
being awakened by the report of the wea-
pom, was Mortified to discover his. wife in the
agonies of death. He hastily summoned
the members of the household to his assis-
tance but the wound was fatal and she ex-
pired within few minutes. Justice A. J.
Williams, of Philomath, was summoned and
an inquest was held. The following is the
report of the jury:
We, the undersigned jury, impanaIed by
A. j. Williams, justice of the peace, in and
for Benton county, Oregon, acting as cor
oner for said county and state, for the pur-
pose of ascertaining the cause of the death
of Minnie Wyatt, wife of Franklin Wyatt,
both residents of county and state afore-
said, after careful consideration OF all the
circumstances and all the evidence at our
command have arrived at the following con-
clusion: That she, Minnie Wyatt, came to
her death from the effects of pistol shot
wound in the right temple, produced by her
own hand, done this goth day of May, 1890.

No reason for committing the rash act is
known other than temporary insanity as
there had never been any unpleasantness
between the wife AMI husband or relatives.
She was about 2l years of age and was
married to Frank Wyatt only few months
ago. Her former name was Minnie Clark
and her tragic death is heavy blow to the
young husband. The funeral took place at

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DrsPArCH.!
WHEELING, June 3o.-At o'clock this after
noon one of the most magnificent, and at the
same time one of the most fearful displays ever
made by an electrical storm In this Vcinlty,
struck Wheeling from the southwest. Lignt-
ming played luridly over the city during tne
storm and struck in many places. though no
lives are as yet known to have been lost. Inc
Telephone Exchange. in the Peoples Bank, IN
the heart Of the city, accumulated enough
lightning TO set fire to the building, and In an
instant the widest alarm was felt. The rain
fell at the time in perfect torrent that noodeo
streets and cellars, and it was feared the nre
department would be unable to work. Ihey
promptly answered the call, however, and In
short time what promised to be connagra-
ton was subdued. The telephone service was
completely ruined, and this place will be abso-
lutely without that service until the entire
Office, wires and instruments can be repaired.
Owing to the loss of the telephone service, 1t is
now impossible to state what damage has been
done in the outskirts of the city, though it
must have been great, as the lightning played
in perfect sheet about the edge OF the city,
and several places are reported TO nave oeeh
struck. though damage was only done 10 houses
and trees.
Fully 10000 people were in attendance at the
annual picnic of the American Glass workers.
Union at Wheeling Park at the time. shelter
was impossible to such an enormous number OF
people there. and the results of being exposed
TO the full fury of the storm must have been
grave. There is no communication whatever
with the place, as all wires are useless, and no
picnickers have yet arrived from the place, SO
it is impossible TO say what damage has been
done there outside of drenched clothing and
frightened women.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.1
CHICAGO, June 30.-The scheme to locate
the Worlds Fair on the Lake Front got a
black eve in the City Council tonight. The
matter came up in the form of report in
which was submitted the proposition of the
Illinois Central Railroad Company to sur
render their right of way, 200 feet
wide along the lake front, to which
they bore doubtful title, and
to receive in return right of way 300 feet
in width, to be filled in ], 200 feet east of the
present shore line, and about 80 acres of
ground which the railway proposed to create
by filling in at the north end of the park.
The proposition was received with howls
of Indignation. Loud-mouthed protests
were heard from every quarter against giving
the railroad company property worth per-
haps $500, ,000, 900, in return for which they
proposed to give the city a paltry million
and half, Mayor Cregier, from the chair,
made strong plea for a favorable consider
alton of the scheme, but the shouts of d is
approval compelled him to stop before he
was through and no action was taken, but
to refer the report for printing. An attempt
on the part of Alderman Goldgier to secure
an expression of opinion as to the location
OF the fair was unsuccessful His resolu-
tion could not even obtain reading.
Various interpretations are put upon the
action of the council. 1t certainly voiced
the popular sentiment as to the Illinois Cen
tral project. 1t is intimated that its action
is to be accounted ior by the fact that certain
f1able Aldermen have not yet been fixed"
