ECZEMAIS
ITOH IS TORTURE.

Eczema is caused by an acid humor in
the blood coming In contact with the
skin and producing great redness and in
Examination little pustular eruptions form
and discharge a thin, sticky fluid, which
dries and scales off sometimes the skin is
hard, dry aud assured Eczema in any
form is tornienting, stubborn disease,
and the itching and burning at times are
almost unbearable; the acid burning
humor seems to ooze out ana set the skin
on fire. Salves, washes nor other exter-
nal applications do any real good, for as
long as the poison remains in the blood
It will keep the skin irritated.

According TO the Savannah News,
Florida has the lowest tax rate of any
state In the union, except New Jersey.
With us, this Is largely due to the
hire Of the state convicts. In New
jersey IL arises from the manner in
which the organization of the trusts
there has filed the state treasury.

who hOllers for the platform and
votes the ticket of the party. All
others are frauds, mugwumps or 9TH

him with this little rule, and if he
doesn't fill the bill the only thing to
do is to cast him Out.-Tampa Herald.

MAY DAY PICNIC
Buckeye Eureka Park Opened for Season By
College Students.

The College May Day picnic which
was held at BUckeye-Eureka Park
Thursday afternoon and evening was a
decided success. The fine weather at
tracted many who had not planned
that way to the island. Staid profes
sors and frisky students marched
down the street carrying big baskets
loaded with the picnic supper served
u,,,,cr 1cr the trees at the head of the Is
land.
In the evening at $50 O'Clock the
Sonoma took up another party OF
young people and part of the Mari
eta orchestra. Dancing was the main
feature of the evening, but during the
afternoon all the usual games and
amusements with which the park is
fitted were in operation and were we'll
patrOnized.
The affair was most delightful and
afforded the student body and the pro
fessors a chance to mingle together in
social relaxation The affair was ar
ranged by the Senior class Of the Col
lege.

EHOCEIHG FOR ADMISSION.

One of the facts brought out during
the presidential progress westward is
that strong pressure will be brought
| to bear on congress when 1t meets
for the admission of New Mexico, Ari-
zona and oklahoma as states of the
union. New Mexico would have been
admitted long ago but for political
considerations, and neither Arizona
nor Oklahoma can expect to be admit
ted and New Mexico continue to be
left outside in the cold.
New Mexico and Arizona would be
entitled to one representative in con-
gress each and Oklahoma to two. Ari-
zona has not quite the number of in
habitants fixed as the ratio for repre-
sentation but it has more population
than either Wyoming or Nevada, and
has nearly four times the population
of the last named state.
New Mexico and Arizona combined
have $4,000 less than the population of
the city of Cleveland and it seems un-
j2st that they should be represented as
states in congress by two congressman
and four senators while Cleveland will
have but two congressman, if 1t gets
that number. But there are as great
discrepancies in the present arrange
ment, and these two sage brush terri.
tories have as much claim to come in
now as several of the present states
had when they were taken in for the
sake of the senatorial and electoral
votes needed by the party then in pow
er.
The one thing certain is that bills
for the admission of the three territor-
les will be introduced in the congress
to meet in December, and the admis-
sion of all three before the congress
ends is a strong probability.

MOST REASSURING
is the Smallpox Situation In all Parts Of
City.

Ine shot gun quarantine which is
being enforced in the smallpox district
is still rigidly operative and
the authorities believe that they have
the matter under perfect control. Two
new cases are reported in the Moore
family but the subjects are children
and the physicians fully expected them
to contract the disease. as both of
their parents are afflicted with it.
Wild rumors are flying around that
families in different parts of the city
show symptoms of the eruption. All
such reports have so far, proven to be
absolutely without foundation. Inves-
tigation by the Health Officer develops
the fact that the case which was sup
posed to be located in the house for
merly occupied by the Carotbers fam
lily, at the corner of Fourth and War
rem streets, is only imagination. No
one in that neighborhood is sick with
any disease that even remotely resem-
bles smallpox. Other supposed cases on
Charles street also were merely sensa-
tions. There is every reason to believe
that the authorities have been sue
cessful in confining the pest to the
Sixth and Hart street district.
