AN AWFUL SORE A Babes Untold Suffering And Mothers Many
 SIeepIess Nights.
CUTlCURA WORKS WONDERS.

herewith write out in full the beginning and end of that terrible disease, Eczema, which caused my babe untold suffering, and myself many sleepless nights.
 My baby was born seemingly fair, healthy child, but when she was three weeks old swelling appeared on the back of her head, and in course of time broke. Every one called it aboil and, now it had broken, would soon heal, but that was only the beginning of the trouble. It did not heal but grew worse. and the sore spread from the size of dime to that of dol lar used all kinds of remedies that could think of but nothing seemed to help, in fact it grew worse, her hair fell out where the sore was and feared it would never grow again. It continued until my aged father came on visit, and when he saw the baby he told me stto get CUTICuGA SOAP and CUTlCURA oint- mont right away To please him did 50, and to my surprise, by their use the sore be- gan to heal over, the hair grew over it, and to-day she has a nice head of hair, her skin is as fair as Q lily, and she has no scar left to recall that awful sore.
 CUTIcURA soothes and allays all itching and burning that cause a child to fret and the mother to worry, and gives rest and comfort both to parent and child.

when the wheels OF his buggy struck a
curve I'M a car track. The buggy swung
around and struck heavy butcher wagon
and was overturned. Captain Bingham
struck on his head and YVES instantly rem
dered unconscious. He was picked up by

accident and carried to st. Mary's Hos
pital, block away. After the buggy
overturned the horse continued its mad
run, aad collided with buggy driven by
George L. Hull. Mr.. Hull was hurled to
the street by the force of the collision, but
escaped serious injury. A block farther
down the street the horse was captured
and taken 10 the Mail dock
DR.. Leonard was called to attend Cap
tain Bingham, and, assisted by DR.. Bailey,
resident physician at the hospital, made
thorough examination of the patients in
juries. A long scalp wound extended
across the back of the injured mans head,
and it is thought that the skull is frac-
tured beneath the wound. At least this
is the opinion of DR.. Bailey, but he says it
has not yet been definitely determined
whether the skull has suffered injury or
not. The patients clavicle was also frac-
tured, but this in Jury, in itself, i, not con-
sidered serious. The physicians in charge
refuse to express an opinion as to the pos
sible result of Captain Bingham injuries
and will await developments. In case the
injured man escaped internal injury his
chances for recovery, it Is thought, are
good.

E. P. E. Troy was in favor of discussing
and settling the question as to wheih
the Mayor should be autocratic or whether
the power should be vested IN. a large
body. Until that matter should be. set
tied the committee could not do any
work.
Mr.. Healy said that the alternative
proposition would involve the submission .
of two charters TO the people; otherwise.
there would be an unsy mme trical scheme !,
which the Supreme Court would find 1t :
difficult to interpret coherently.' ~: 81.
Judge Thompson favored the idea OF
Messrs. Clement, Leggett and Cridge. 1t,
was highly Important that the work
should be started right. ....'s
/. J. Truman opposed the Clement sub
stitute because he feared. that under it
each mem Der of the com mittee would ven-:
tilate his. hobby, which proceeding would
consume much valuable time and would
result in~the opposite of harmony; .:..~ -
Mr.. .Cridge read from the pr amble of
the call for the organic alton to:show that
its object was to formulate. the principles
upon which the Board of Freeholders
should draft the new plan OF govern ment.e
Mr. Clement explained that: his idea,
was to formulate principles and leave the
Freeholders to deal Within details The
organization was not prepared to. draft the
charter itself. 1t. lacked the funds for
printing and other expenses which woull
be incurred. in the work. - :: j..
