CURED IN ONE MONTH BY CUTICURA

When my baby was four months old her
skin broke out, and l thought it was ring
worm. took her to a doctor and he said it
was Eczema. He gave me medicine to give
her, but she kept getting worse all the time,
and you could not tell what she looked like,
her little face and hands were so covered with
sores and large scales. 1t got under her little
finger nails. She was the worst looking sight
1 ever saw. Heard of CUTIcURA REMEDIES,
go 1 thought would try them. Before tried
them we got no rest at night. She could not
sleep it itched SO. After gave her CUTICURA
REsoLvENT, Sdao q change in qCeek. It
commenced to dry all up and she would sleep
ell night, and when it was drying up the skin
all cracked open, so then got CUTICURA (oint-
ment) and CUTICURA SOAP, and in one month
she had not one sore on her face, and don't
think it is any more than justice to let you
know what it has done for my baby. She now
is fifteen months old and has got beautiful
skin. She doesn't even have pimple OF any
kind, and she is as fat as pudding.

IN THE MUNICIPAL COURT.
A Case of Assault and Battery Arising
From Quarrel in Gray.

There was an assault and battery case
in the municipal court yesterday forenoon
which came up in connection with con-
eroversy which has been waxing bitter IN
Gray over the disposition of some S170t
worth of property left by the late Mrs.
Sophie Small. There were two counts IN
the charge. one of assault and battery and
the other with assault and battery with
intent to kill.
Daniel H. Twom bly, of West Gray COM
plains that Capt. George Dolley OF that
place met him on the street last Saturday
and struck him heavy blow with cane,
leaving a large bruise on his arm.
Capt. Dolley through his counsel, War
rem a. Vinton, did not attempt to deny
but what technical assault was COM
mitted, but he took exceptions to the in
tent to kill part. and claimed that the as
sault was justifiable.
The court found Mr. Dolley guilty on
the first count and ordered him to pay s2o
and costs, but dismissed the second count
The affair grew out of i'll feeling be-
tween Capt. Dolley and Mr.. Twombiy
over the disposition of the property OF tina
late Mrs. Small who was an aunt OF Mr..
Twombly and also OF Mrs. Dolley.
Mrs. Dolley took care of the aged lady
for some IA months during her last illness
and also for several months previously
when she was sick with the grip, and
consequently claims that she is entitled to
the property left.
Mrs. Small died suddenly at last and
Mr.. Twombly and another aunt, sister
of Mrs. Small, with whom Mr.. Twombly
lives, were instrumental in having post
norton examination, giving rise to the
suspicion that Mrs. Small was poisoned.
DR.. Andrews made the post mortem ex-
animation but found no traces of poison.
John Burns was also before the court
on suspicion of the larceny of two pairs OF
pants which he was trying to sell in the
pawn shops along Fore street. Burns
claimed that he received the pants In part
settlement after game Of poker with a
man by the name Of Levi. AS the officers
could not prove that the pants were stolen
Burns was discharged.
Thomas Mulkern, 10 year old boy
living on Fore street, was arrested Sun
day for stealing ride on the Grand
Trunk train on Commercial street. He
was sentenced to pay S. and costs but the
sentence was suspended on good behavior.
There were also three cases of intoxioa-
ton and several liquor cases disposed Of.

HORSE KILLED BY ELECTRICITY

A horse belonging to Hodgdon's express
was killed by an electric current on
Spring street, Deering. yesterday after
noon at about O'Clock.
There 10 considerable controversy as to
the cause of the accident. Two electric
light companies have wires in a tree
nearby where the accident occurred and
it is claimed that the ground was charged
by one of these, and that the horse step
ping on the charged ground and the
street railway 1ail completed circuit
which resulted fatally for himself.
Others say that it is impossible that the
horse could have been killed from either
of the wires in the tres. The place where
the accident occurred was about opposite
Grant street.

CONDEMNATION PROCEEDINGS
Pasadena Man Wants a Railway Co.
to Pay Him a Good Price

George r. Cooper, resident of South
Pasadena. is the defendant in a suit now be-
ing heard in Judge York's court, in which
the Pasadena and Los Angeles Electric Rail-
way company seeks to have condemned three
lots belonging to the defendant.
The railway company contends that it
needs the property for its right-of-way
along the Arroyo, and that the defendant
wanted an exorbitant price for it. The
company took possession of the premises
in question, part of lots 10. 20 and 81, in
the Lincoln park tract of South Pasadena
and for three years now has had its track
laid within seven or eight feet of the defend
ants house, using however, only a narrow
strip of ground from one end of the lots.
Cooper, the defendant, claims that the
whole of the premises are damaged by the
position of the company's track, in conse-
quence of its proximity to the house, and
the racket consequent to the passing of the
trains. He further states in his answer
that he has no safe means of ingress or
egress from his residence. A judgment for
$4,000 against the company is therefore
prayed for by the defendant. The case will
probably last all day today.

ATTORNEYS AGREED
Pedro Garcia and Isabella Knowles
Will Not Be Brought Back

Attorney Allender yesterday asked the
court to order that Isabella Knowles be
brought back from San Quentin to testify
in the second trial of Mary Garcia which
will begin on next Saturday morning. AT
the same time Assistant District Attorney
Williams made the same request with re-
gard to Pedro Garcia.
Judge Smith was of the opinion that this
expense should be avoided if possible. Both
attorneys were sure they would not be able
to get along without these witnesses, but
on stating what each was expected to tes-
tify, it was found that each side would be
willing to admit certain statements.
Under the understanding reached, the
prosecution admits Isabella Knowles was
in the cell adjoining Mary Garcia for a
month or more. and that she knew that the
Garcia woman had two periods of copious
menstrual flow in that time. The defense
admits the testimony of Pedro Garcia as
it was given at the first trial. The county Is
thus saved the expense of two round trips
to San Quentin
