ST. PAUL, June THE sound money
Democrats are in a cave of gloom to-
night over the prospect that they will
not have majority in the State Con-
vention Thursday to name eighteen
delegates to the Chicago National Con-
vention. Up TO yesterday the gold
standard men seemed to have clear
majority assured. The thirteen coun-
ties which held conventions on Satur-
day, however changed the face OF
things. A count Of noses to-day shows
that of the delegates chosen 35S are for
silver and 352 for gold. OF the 122 yet
to be chosen it is claimed 90 will be for
silver. This will give the silverites the
four delegates at large. They will also
have at least six of the Congressional
delegates, leaving the sound money men
only eight delegates from Minnesota.

marriage last Wednesday night of
Miss Cora Aldrich and Elmer Layne.
At the hour of eight they were
married at the home Of the brides
father on G street by Rev. NJ. L. Har
Ian, formerly pastor Of the Christian
church in this city, but now Of Atchi-
son.
The ceremony was a short, but very
impressive one, and was delivered in
the presence of only the families of
bride and groom and few outside
friends. Immediately after the con-
CALCULATIONS the company was ush-
cred into the dining room, where an
elegant wedding supper had been pre-
pared. The guests were literally
served by Misses Gertrude Caldwell,
Nellie and Pearl Aldrich, the last two
being sisters Of the bride.
The house was profusely decorated
with smilax. roses, carnations and
other hot house flowers. After the
supper had been served the bride and
groom entered a cab and were driven
to the home of Lyman Naugle, where
they will make their home for q few
weeks.
The bride was dressed in a very
pretty lavender silk null and pre-
scented a charming appearance. The
groom wore the conventional suit of
black.
The guests present were Mr.. and
Mrs. Lyman Naugle, Mr.. and Mrs.
Newton Caldwell, Rev. NJ. f. Harlan,
Misses Minnie Branaman, Gertrude
Caldwell. Matte Ferguson and
frankie Bates, the last two from
Wichita, DR.. T. A. Mayhem, Alvah

Itching,
Burning,
Eczema

Is the external indication of a con-
dition of the blood which produces a
fiery irritation almost unbearable. II is
a mistake to think that this local irrita-
ton is the disease itself-it is simply an
evidence of disordered condition of the
blood. The seat OF the disease is in the
blood, and this is why the various salves
and ointments usually applied have no
effect whatever. They cannot possibly
reach the origin of the trouble; only a
blood remedy can do that. S. S. S. is
without an equal for blood diseases, and
promptly and permanently cures Eczema
and removes all faint.
Much torture could be avoided if the
first itching symptoms were needed and
course OF S.S.S. taken promptly, as ap-
parently insignificant s,in irritations
usually develop into the worst form
OF Eczema unless properly treated.
II matters not what other treatment
has been tried in vain, S. S. S. always
gets at the seat Of the disease, and
forces it out.
