A LITTLE SUFFERER
Face, Hands and Arms Covered With
Scrofulous Humors - How q Cure
Mas Effecfed


Scrofulous Humors - How q Cure
Was Effected.
"When five years old my little boy had
scrofula on his face, hands and arms. It
was worst on his chin, although the sores
on his cheeks and hands were very bad.
1t appeared in the form Of red pimples
which would tester, break open and run
and then scab over. After disappearing
they would break out again. They caused
intense itching and the little sufferer had
to be watched continually to keep him
from scratching the sores. We became
greatly alarmed at his condition. My
wife's mother had had scrofula and the
only medicine which had helpd her was
Hoods Sarsaparilla. We decided to give
it to our boy and wo noted an improve
ment in his case very soon. After giving
him four bottles of Hoods Sarsaparilla
the humor had all been driven out of his
blood and it has never since returned"
WILLIAM BARTz, 416 South Williams st.,
South Bend, Indiana.
You can buy Hoods Sarsaparilla OF all

Positive Statement by Lord HerscheiI
Concerning the Conference.


Concerning the Conference.
The Americans of the arbitration COM
nittee began their labors at o'clock yes
terday morning, and by themselves and in
joint session were at work all day. The
joint session began at II o'clock and lasted
until nightfaN The joint meetings are
held in the parliament building, but the
commissions, when meeting separately
held their sessions in rooms in the Chateau
EronIenac.
As usual. when the joint meGtlEy closed
last evening the commissioners reported
that trey had gone through 1 day of very
hard work, all that good progress lad
Teen made. Senator Fairbanks, Tor the
Americans. and Lord Herscheil, far the
Canadians. have been selected to give out
whatever there may be for the press, but
so far there has been nothing which the
commission has considered wise to reveal.
One positive statement was made, how
ever. by Lord Herschell last night. He
said it had been decided that after the
recess the conference would continue at
Quebec There has been some talk about
transferring the conference to Washington
or Ottawa, but his lordship said the work
" ould go on at Quebec.
It is known that books and documents
relating 10 the Boring sea sealing question
We're much in evidence in the Joint meet
ing yesterday. and it is inferred BY out
sioers that this important question has
been taken up. Some OF The Canadian au-
thcrities believe that the commissioners
will never get beyond the sealing QUESTION
They argue that last winter when Sir VIII
frid Laurier and Sir Louis Davis went 10
Washington to have settlement of that
question they failed, and that conditions
have not changed since then
IL Is probable, however, that during the
interim between the I'd and 10Th of Sep
tember 10th delegations win confer with
their governments, and be able 10 do some
thing or declare that they can do nothing.

The decisive test of the strength of the
anti Hanna movement in Ohio will come
tonight whan the Republican Legislators
go into caucus to nominate senatorial
candidate. II the Republicans who voted
for Mason for Speaker keep aloof from
the caucus 1t win be pretty conclusive
evidence that they will not vote for
Hanna for Senator, and without some of
them he cannot be elected. Undoubtedly
the vote for legislative officers very ac-
curately reflected the extent of the Hanna
disaffection at that time, but many
things will have happened before tonight
and tremendous pressure will have been
brought to bear ON Republicans who
started in as Hanna opponents to get them
back 1t would not be strange if in some
cases it should prove effective. On the
other hand as the Republicans who voted
for Hanna are going to be accused of
treachery anyway it would not be surpris-
ing If they should conclude that little
more treachery along the same line would
not make their case any worse, and
would afford them the sweet consolation
Of having got some revenge. Ohio has
had the reputation for many years of har-
boring the most treaoherous and blood
thirsty lot of politicians in the universe
and the present row shows that it has
not been undeserved. If Hanna is defeat.
ed it will be impossible to convince his
friends that Foraker was not at the bot
tom of it. and they will Immediately be-
gin to sharpen their knives in anticipa-
ton of the temperance of that states
Senate. If he is beaten the chances too
of Republican getting any elective office
in Ohio for some years to come will hard
ly be worth talking about.
