About six months ago my little son, aged
three, was very much troubled with a breaking
out on his scalp and behind his ear. The places
effected were about as large as a silver dollar,
the flesh seemed raw and covered with little
blisters. The child suffered considerably, and
was naturally very fretful. Tried several reme-
dies without obtaining any beneficial results,
in fact the erupti0ns seemed to be spreading
and new places breaking out. i concluded
to try the CUTICuRA REMEDIES, and bought
a box of CUTIcURA, a cake Of CUTICURA SOAP,
anda bottle of CUTICURA REsoLvENT. washed
the effected parts with the CUTICURA SOAP,
taking care not to irritate the flesh, and applied
CUTIcURA. noticed a change for the better In
the appearance of the eruptions in twenty-four
hours. / continued the treatment morning and
night, and in two weeks the eruptions entirely
disappeared, leaving the skin smooth and the
scalp clean, in fact a perfect cure, as l have not
seen any indications of any eruption or breaking
out since. l gave the child only a few doses Of
the CUTIcURA REsoLvENT. l consider your
CUTIcURA REMEDIES very valuable, and expect
to keep a small supply constantly on hand. l
believe CUTIcURA would be excellent for apply
ing to insect bites, which are very annoying In
this country. c. A. ARMSTRONG,

IN A NEW ROLE. The Genial Reuben Mentioned as
 a Possible Candidate IN THE SEVENTH DISTRICT The Strongest Man Is Needed to Oppose Denson--Barnes
 a Democrat.
IN THE SEVENTH DISTRICT

It is given out by some of the Kolbites- combining all parties opposed to Democ- racy-that Capt. R. F. Kolb will make the race for congress in the seventh district should the democrats renominate Colonel Denson, which seems altogether probable just now. So many of the conglomerates have been announced as candidates in that district until the suggestion of a new name sounds. very much like joke.
 Colonel Denson is very popular in the Seventh, a fact realized by the conglom- crates, and they will allow none but their str ongest men to enter the contest with him.
 First MT. Peyton G. Bowman was agreed upon, but for some cause he did not move to Fort Payne, as it was said he would, but remained a citizen of Birmingham, and declined to make the race for congress against Colonel Denson.
 Now the great giant, the most persistent fighter of them all, is announced as the one of all enemies to democracy upon whom to depend to carry their banner to victory.
 It is doubtful, however, if Captain Kolb will accept the nomination in the Seventh, as that will mean virtual acknowledge ment of his defeat for governor in the
  donment of his proposed dual government in Montgomery next winter.
 BARNES A DEMOCRAT.
 The AGE HERALD a day or two ago, in publishing list of the probable conglom- crate nominees for congress in the several districts of Alabama, stated that Mir. Gus Barnes of Opelika had been slated for the nomination in the Third. This MT. Barnes, in letter to the Montgomery Ad- vertiser, denies, and adds that he is and always has been good democrat. Here is his card:
 OPELIKA, Ala., Aug. 29, 1894. Editor Advertisers
 l see from a communication in your paper from Birmingham it is said that l will be a candidate for congress against the democratic nominee in this (the Third) congressional district. I am one of the democrats in Lee county. who has an un- broken democratic record, and I have no idea of breaking it. Yours truly,

GOV. WAITE ON TRIAL
For Breaking Open and Detaining Another Persons Letter-Big
 Crowd Present.

DENVER, Col, Aug. 30. At the prelimi- nary hearing in the case against Governor Waite, before United States Commissioner Hinsdale, the court room was crowded. Governor Waite asked the commissioner for copy of the charge, saying that all at- tempts to procure one had been futile. Mrs. Legarnette, housekeeper, the first witness called, testified that she had in- serted the advertisement to which the troublesome letter was reply, and that she used the police matron's name as a matter of convenience.
 Mrs. Litkins testified that she was re- moved on July Il; that the letter was re. ceived on the 9th, and was used as ground for her dismissal; that there was a con- spiracy in the police board to obtain her dismissal, and that Kate Dwyer and the other defendants had withheld the letter from her, although it was plainly private one. The governor had the witness admit that the envelope was addressed to the po- lice matrop, and nothing on the outside would indicate its propriety.

NOT YET AT AN END.

GLASGOW, Aug. 30.-The result of bal lot taken among the Scotch coal miners on the question involved in the present strike was announced this morning. The ballot ing shows 25, AZ miners in favor of the proposal of the miners' federation to ac cept Spence reduction, with the guaran- tee of wages on that basis for two years, and 20 ,942 in favor of insisting upon a shilling advance in wages. The mine owners declare that the balloting, which shows a majority in favor of accepting the reduction of 6 pence, does not by any means put an end to the strike, for the reason that it will be impossible for them to guarantee even minimum rate of wages for period of two years. The owners as- eert this cannot be done, inasmuch as most of their annual contracts have been cancelled by their customers.

GROUND TO DEATH.
Robert Howard Falls Under a Moving Train at Ope)ika, and Is
 Horribly Mangled.

OPELIKA, Aug. 30.-[Special Corre- spondence. l-After the southbound linn ited passenger train on the Western road passed over the Chambers street crossin g at 7:30 o'clock last night, the horribly mangled and bloody form of an unknown white man was discovered by negro man passing the scene. The alarm quickly spread over the city and large crowd con gregated around the repulsive sight in a few minu
 Lying in the dirt, completely saturated with blood, was the form of the unfor- tunate man. The curiosity seekers stood ministered cpiates. The victim talked in a wandering manner, hardly seeming to realize his terrible condition, occasionally asking the bystanders how the accident happened and if they thought he would safely reach home.
 A cot was procured and the mangled form of the stranger placed thereon and re- moved to the old passenger depot located in the park.
 The physicians proceeded to do every thing in their power for the poor unfortu- nate, but all their skillful efforts proved useless, as the man was beyond all human aid and died after short but terrible sui fering.
 Before dying the man gave his name as being Robert Howard. and that he lived at Tallasee, Ala, and requested the physi- clans not to inform his mother, who lived al Tallasee, of the accident.
 A negro who was standing at the street crossing as the train came in said the dead man leaped from the "blind' end of the baggage car and fell under the wheels, be- ing completely ground to jelly, as the entire train passed over his prostrate body.
 A telegram was received by Dr. Charles McCay from the Tallasee Manufacturing company this afternoon requesting that their expense aud shipped to Notasulga on the 5 80 train this evening.

 Arrested for Blackmail.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Aug. 30.-John Cantrell and wifeE and Mrs. Cantrell's s brother, William Crane, have all been ar- rested at Rogersville, Tenn., on a charge of blackmail. The arrests were made at the instance of Dr. G. H. Morgan and the town is all torn up over the sensation. pr. Morgan is prominent and wealthy per- son. He alleges that he has been of late much beset with attentions from Mrs. Cantrell. Recently he was summoned to the Cantrell house, ostensibly to see sick child. He found Mrs. Cantrell alone, un- dressed and very demopstrative. Just at this point the husband broke into the room in a pretended rage. Since then the doctor says Cantrell and Crane have de- manded large amounts of money as the price of his safety and their silence. other version of the story in which the doctor plays an innocent role.

CONDITION AT MILWAUKEE.

MILWAUKEE, Aug. SO.-State troops will not be sent to Milwaukee to quaran- tine the city or any part of 1t, nor will the state board of health take charge here for the present at least. This Is the result of advice given the city authorities and the state board by Governor Peck. At meet ing late this afternoon Governor Peck in- sisted that the local authorities should do their full duty. He said 1t was for them to turn the whole matter over to the state; that they had ample authority and ample force, if force were necessary. If the state quested by the local authorities, the re- ports that would he spread would cause great harm to the city. Health Commis- sioner Kempster's resignation will be de- manded at the next meeting of the com mittee in council.
