(BenSOn'S Plaster Is Pains Mastsr.)

In the days of wild cat money in the
West, the Ames shovels were used as cur
rency. They were as stable as gold; their
price did not vary o cent in twenty years.
The very name of Oliver Ames & Son, was
synonym for honesty. It was current all
over the world
On the same principle Benson's Porous
Plaster is the universal standard external
remedy. To say it is "good" plaster does
not describe it; 1T IS the best possible plaster.
For every disease in which an external rem
edy is available, Benson's Plaster is used
almost as matter of course
Benson's Plaster quickly relieves and
cures where other modes of treatment are
either exasperatingly slow or have no good
effect whatever. Coughs, colds. lumbago,
kidney trouble, rheumatism, lame back,
ETC., are at once benefited and soon cured.
Capsicum, Strengthening and Belladonna
plasters have none of the curative virtues
of Benson's. More than 5000 physicians
and druggists have commended Benson's
Plaster as remedy in which the public
may have implicit confidence; while, in a
comparative test with other plasters, Ben
sons has received. .ffty.foe highest aaoards.

their best of animal senses. 1t has an
almost hypnotic influence over the
beasts. | have seldom heard of an
animal being burned in this manner,
however, so there is nothing cruel in
the treatment. 1t would not do for the
keeper to burn the charges under his
care, for the scars would mar the
animal for exhibition purposes. The
hot iron is a terror, just the same,

Terre Haute, Ind, Feb. 26.-Miss
Ida Finkelstein, school teacher, died
in hospital here at II o'clock at
night from wounds inflicted by a negro
who shot, robbed and assaulted her
and cut her throat. The young Wom-
an was walking homeward from her
country school over lonely road to
the main highway to take a trolley
car to the city when she fell victim to
her murderOus assault.
The community is greatly stirred
over the crime and a lynching is
threatened if the negro is caught. The
negro was fully described by his vic
tim and the conductor of an interur-
ban trolley car says he came to the
city on his car at 6 o'clock and got off
at Nineteenth street. Nevertheless a
search has been made for him in the
vicinity of the outrage by policemen, a
posse and one man with a bloodhound.
There is little doubt, however, that
the fellow came to town, and the po.
lice think they know who he is.
Tells Her Terrible Story.
By writing when her throat was
bleeding too much to talk, and by talk
ing when she could, Miss Finkelstein
told the story of her terrible expert
ence. She saw the negro off to one
side of the road, and he called to her
to stop, but she hurried on, and when
he called second time she ran Then
he fired one charge from his shotgun
and she says some of the shot struck
her in the back of her head, but they
made no serious wounds. At that she
stopped and he came UP to her de-
manding her money. She handed him
a purse containing So and started to
run, but he caught her. She struggled
to free herself, but he threw her
down. Still she tried to get free, and
he became enraged and cut her throat.
1t is long cash, but need not have
been fatal if she had received prompt
treatment. After the negro left her
she walked half a mile to a house,
and fell fainting at the door, 1t was
more than an hour afterward before a
doctor arrived. 1t was three hours
after the outrage before the police
were put on the case.
Relatives Live In Chicago.
Miss Finkelstein had no relatives in
Terre Haute, but she had many
friends among the Jewish residents Of
the city, who know her heroic strug-
giles to support a widowed mother
with six younger children. Seven
years ago her father, a pack peddler.
was murdered in saloon at Hymera.
mining town. After that time she
was graduated from the high school
with high honors, and then spent two
years in the state normal school. She
had been teaching for three years, two
years at the little country schooihouse
from which she was coming when she
met the negro. Her mother and broth
ers and sisters moved to Chicago
some time ago, and the daughter sent
them nearly all her salary as teach

SALISBURY OUT ON BAIL

Latest Development of the Trouble About
a Matter of 5000.
Chicago, Feb. 26-Under a cap1as is
county grand jury Liant Il. Salisbury
was formally placed under arrest yes
terday on a charge of embezzling $780,
600 placed in escrow some two weeks
ago as part of an alleged fund to be
used in securing a 81 ,00O,O 900 contract
for the construction of municipal wat
erworks at Grand Rapids, Mich, where
he is city attorney. He was released
on bonds of $1,000 after having been

1t is announced by Salsbury's attOr-
reys in Chicago that he left last night

parted a statement was issued by the
attorney of Guy G.. Barton. In this
statement Attorney l.. X. CrOfOot, the
Omaha representative of Barton, re,
fers to the $4,000 as portion of g.
fund needed in the WaterwOrks deal
''for legal and promotion expenses"
All speculation as to whether the
$4,000 had really been returned to the
BartonS was set at rest by Attorney
CrofOOt's written declaration that it
was restored to Representatives of the
rightful owners by Salisbury when the
latter arrived in this city from Michi-
gan last Saturday night.
A dispatch from Grand Rapids says:
''The Grand Rapids common council
will take steps toward officially in
vestigating the alleged waterworks
deal, which has resulted in the indict-
ment of County Attorney Salisbury by
the grand jury in Chicago for the al
legged embeZZlement of S50.0OO.''
