CUTICURA
 OINTMENT PUEOst 6t EmOlII0nts. and Greatest Of Skin Cures. Tho Most Wonderful Curative
 of All Time For TOrtuTlng, DIsflguring
 Skin HumOurS And PuTGst and Sweetest of Toilet EmOIIlOnts.

Cuticura Ointment Is beyond question the most successful curative for tortur- Ing, disnguringh hunours of the skin and scalp, including loss of hair, ever compounded, in proof of which single anointing preceded by hot bath with Cuticurs Soap, and followed in the sevcrer cases, by . dose of Cuti- cura Resolyent, is often sufficient to afford immediate relief iH the most distressing forms of itching, burning and scaly humours, permit rest and sleep, and point to a speedy cure when all other remedies fail. It is especially SO in the treatment of infants and chil- dren, cleansing. soothing and healing the most distressing of infantile hu- mours, and preserving, purifying and beautifying the skin, scalp and hair.
 Cuticura Ointment possesses, at the same time, the charm of satisfying the simple wants of the toilet, in caring for the skin, scalp, hair, hands and feets from infancy to age, far more effect ually, agreeably and economically than tho most expensive of toilet emollients. Its "Instant relief for skin-tortured babies, i" or Sanative, ,antiseptic cleans ing" or "One-night treatment of the hands or feet" or Co Single treatment of the hair," or "USe after athletics" cycling, golf, tennis. riding, sparrings or any sport, each in connection with the use of Cuticura Soap, is sufficient evidence of this

TAXES ARE RAISED.
Marengo Commissioners in conse-
 quencs will Hear Protests.

N
 Demopolis, Aug. e-(specfal. .)--Con- siderable dissatisfaction was occasioned by the action of the last session of the County Commissioners, in raising taxes and a number of the taxpayers in this city went to Linden this week to show why such raises were unjust.
 The negro carpenters employed on the new store being erected by Contractor Hitchcock. are out on a strike. The trouble arose out the fact that white man, who is not a union workman, Is employed on the building. Just how the affair will terminate 1t is Impossible to say now. There are no other white car- penters in the city. and unless Contrac- tor Hitchcock succeeds in bringing work men from elsewhere his time contract may force him to lay of the non-union white man. and put the negroes on the work again.
 The big shoot took place in this city Tuesday. Crack marksmen from Meri- dian, Selma. Greensboro. Uniontown and other neighboring towns were entertained by the Marengo County Gun Club. Some very remarkable scores were made and prizes were awarded. The day was lovely though warm, and was pleasantly spent by the marksmen. A first class barbecue had been provided. and was served at the grounds.
 Fine rains have fallen asain this week. and just at the time needed. The crops are looking better than for years, and farmers are jubiIant over good times ahead. The wind storm last week blew corn down in some sections, but, so far as has been learned no material damage was wrought. Cotton is growing. and prospects improve each week.

 The fountain in the. public square has been put in first class repair.

Adversaries of Canal Treaty Gain
 More Hope,

Colon. Colombia. Aug. 6.-The latest ad- vices from Bogota state that the adver- saries of the Panama canal treaty have assumed a new attitude. which is based on the recently published opinion of an eminent lawyer at Bogota who claims that acceptance by the Colombian Con- gross of the Hay-Herran treaty would be unconstitutional. because Congress did not sanction the last canal project. and for other technical reasons.

 The general court martial. composed of officers of the End Infantry, held it's first meeting yesterday in the tent of the president, Major Charles R. Bricken at Camp du Mont. The court after 1t had been organized, adjourned until 12 o'clock to-day.
 It was found that all the charges and specifications relative to the matttrs which would come before the court had not been received by Captain E. F. Baber Judge Advocate of the court. and for that reason adjournment for one day was taken.
 While 1t has not been made public that the court martial would investigate the recent trouble in Troop A. it is generally conceded that it was appointed for that purpose. It is understood that charges and counter charges have been filed by Captain w. O.. Garside and Lieutenant Charles P. Dexter. of the troop.
