the more prominent horses in the stables OF
Horace Chenery and M. B. Smith. There
are MANY other valuable horses owned In
Belfast and it's immediate vicinity, and from
present indications the racing season OF
1903 will be an interesting one. Belfast has
one of the best half-mile tracks IN Name
and the track record has been lowered here
three years in succession. reaching 2.l9f
last season. The suggestion is now made
that a merchants purse Of 500 be gotten
up for ree-for-all race, in connection with
some of the races OF the coming season.
This would draw many fast horses from
outside and in addition to other races Would
bring crowd to the city. Among the pet
ter class of trotting, pacing and driving
horses may be mentioned the following:

Instant Relief and Speedy
Cure Afforded by
Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills
When All Elise Fails.
COMPLETE TREATMENT, Sl.00.
COMPLETE TREATMENT, Sl.oo.

The agonizing itching and burning of
the skin, as in eczema; the frightful
scaling, as in psoriasis; the loss of hair
and crusting of the scalp, as in scaled
head; the facial Disagreement, as in
pimples and ringworm; the awful suf-
fering of infants and the anxiety OF
WORKOUT parents, as in milk crust, tet-
ter and salt rheum, all demand a rem
edy of almost superhuman virtues to
successfully cope with them. That
Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills are
such stands proven beyond all doubt.
No statement is made regarding them
that is not justified by the strongest
evidence The purity and sweetness,
the power to afford immediate relief,
the certainty of speedy and permanent
cure, the absolute safety and great
economy, have made them the standard
skin cures and humour remedies OF the
civilized world.
Battle the affected parts with hot
water and Cuticura Soap, to cleanse the
surface of crusts and scales and soften
the thickened cuticle. Dry, without
hard rubbing, and apply Cuticura Oint-
ment freely, to allay itching, irritation
and Inflammation, and soothe and heal,
and, lastly, in the severer forms, take
Cuticura Resolvent Pills, to cool and
cleanse the blood. A single set is often
sufficient to cure the most torturng,
distiguring and humiliating skin, scalp
and blood humours, with loss OF hair,
when all else fails.

There is clearly need for a general
caucus law to correct abuses of long
standing. and of which all parties have
equal cause to complain. But the bill
before the legislature seems to us need
lessly complicated and not likely to
meet tie desired end. There are so
many requirements that it is more than
probable some of them would be over
looked and the action of the caucus in
validated. Quite a large percentage OF
voters are now disfranchised under our
present ballot aW. and we hope there
Viii be no legislation that is likely to
distranchise others. The Journal is III
favor OF an election law that would
enable every voter to vote according to
his conviction and to have his vote
counted. We doubt the constitution
allty of "a law that rejects vote when
tie intention of the voter is evident.

,,eces are each about six inches square,
md each one is stained with the anlllne
dive that gives to the summer soda
water of New Haven its deep color.
The samples were all obtained IN Ne"
Haven: but what of other cities! Ac-
cording to Prof. jenkins, these anlllne
dives are not particularly dangerous TO
the health of one in good health. But
to the invalid and the children OF tender
wears what poison there is in the anlllne
dives would raise the mischief with their
stomacbs. Perhaps an even more sur
arising statement is that not long ago
the officials of this station made an ex-
animation of baking powder then on
the market, and found it made OF
ground rock principally. The manu-
facturers were finally driven out OF
business by the exposure. The pure
food agitation might well be supple
,oented with a demand for pure drinks.

PASSING OF PIONEER.
Frank Kuhne Dies This Afternoon
 After Very Brief Illness.

The announcement this afternoon of the death of Frank Kuhne came as a surprise and shock to very many of his friends His death occurred about 1 30 o'clock at his residence at 420 South Marina street.
 He had only been sick for few days and his illness was not generally known.
 Mir. Kuhne was among the early settlers of this section and has been engaged in mining ever since coming here. He was for years a prominent figure in mining on Lynx creek, and in more recent years acquired the Sunny South property, located south of Prescott He was an industrious man and useful citizen. He leaves wife and five children to mourn the loss of an affectionate husband and kind father, and their sorrow will be shared, though in probably a less degree by large circle of friends MT. Kuhne had no enemies, as he would have scOrned to have wronged fellow being or to have given him cause for enmity.
 The cause of death was a complies tiOn of diseases. The body was re- moved to P. MOhn & Co. s undertak- ing parlors to be prepared for burial and the funeral will take place on Sunday afternoon at o'clock.
