Physicians Give Eczema Up, But
zema-Cura Cures ii Every Time

You often hear of "hopeless cases" Of
Eczema; OF people who have tried every.
thing recommended by eminent physic-
lans without being relieved, to say
nothing of being cured. The fortunes Of
TINS disease are terrible, and to be a victim
OF Eczema is most pitiable. 1t was claim
ed to be incurable.
All this was true once, but it is now nc
longer true. No matter how bad the case
may be or Of what duration, JENA
CoRA will cure Eczema, Hives, Erup-
tons and skin diseases of all kinds.
ZEMA-CURA has been used in thous-
ands OF cases and has not failed to cure in
one instance. 1t never will fail. It will
cure you surely, effectively and for all time.
No matter what you have tried or how
long you have suffered you owe it to your
self to try ZEMA-CURA.
1t affords me pleasure to testify to the cura-

at the base Of the spine which was so trouble
some, especially at night, that my constant irri-
tation to produce relief caused sores. could
ind no remedy until friend recommended

LIBELLED BY FICTION.
Captain Declares He Was Called Cow
ard in Magazine Story.

New York, July PA peculiar suit
has been begun in the United States
District court by Axel Simonson, sea
captain. against the Frank A. Munsey
Company, of this city, wherein the
captain asks that he receive $4,000
| damages for libel growing out of a flc-
ton story printed in the April humber
of The Munsey. The story which the
captain objects to was one written by
NJ. Bert Foster and entitled 1.-THE Reck-
lessness of Edwy." The tale was one of
shipwreck, and told of the Norwegian
ship Daggry, which went ashore on the
coast in a fog. The life savers, Of
whom the hero was member rugged
the breeches buoy, and got the crew
ashore. The first person, however,
according to the story, to make
trip from the stranded ship to
shore in the buoy was the skip
per. This did not please the
captain Of the life savers, who was
made to comment in great disgust
1.-The skipper of a longshore lobster
boat would have been ashamed to leave
her deck until the last of the crew was
ashore"
A woman had been left on the Dag
cry, and volunteers were called for to
rescue her. The heros rival for the
love of a girl who was watching the
shipwreck seized the opportunity,
buckled himself into the breaches buoy
and was about to start when one Of the
crew warned him that the stranded
vessel in addition to ner supposed
cargo of railway iron and coal, had
many cases of dynamite in her hold.
Pounding as she was against the rocks,
the sailor declared, was likely to blow
up at any moment. The rival aban-
doned the trip. Edwy buckled himself
into the breaches buoy and rescued the
unconscious woman, who, in the Ian
guage of the story, 1.-The cowardly mas
had been no dynamite in the hold, but
the girl married the hero.
In his complaint Captain Simonson
declares he is the master of the Nor
wegian vessel Daggry plying between
NV York and South American ports,
and that he is we'll and favorably
known to the shipping world, and that
the allegations contained in the story
are untrue, excepting the facts that the
Daggry did go ashore in a fog and suf-
fer shipwreck, and that this crew was
taken ashore in the breaches buoy. He |
says the ships cargo was railway iron,
coal and a few cases of dynamite. 1t
was not true that he was the first per-
son ashore, the captain declares. The
complaint charges that the defendant
meant the plaintiff, and held him up to
the world as guilty of coWardice and
conduct, and that his /
reputation as a master of seago1ng
ships has been damaged.

using, striking the back of the hand
and severing the cords of three fingers.

Soledad, Venezuela. Monday. July2o.-
Z p. M.-The sight from ! o'clock, this
afternoon, has been horrible and at this
hour the only places which still resist
the onset of the government troops are
the Jail and the capitol. Early in the
afternoon the government troops. which
had received all the reinforcements
available, together with ammunition
and who numbered in all 5000 men, were
ordered to make a general attack upon
all positions still held by the rebels.
At 5 O'Clock this afternoon. the Va
mora. called the Sebastopol of Ciudad
Bolivar, was stormed and captured.
Niney- four dead rebels were found in
side, among them being Gen. AZanza,
one OF the revolutionary leaders. whose
head had been blown off by a shell. 1t
is impossible to render an idea of the
carnage which occurred at this point.
At the same time Gen. Rivae. Gen.
GomeziS chief lieutenant, with 23O0 men,
succeeded in destroying a b3rricade
erected around the Miranda plaza, the
key to the capitol where all the surviv-
orS of the revolution were concentrated.
All the roads and streets running into
the capitol are guarded by government
troops and the escape of the revolution
lists after. the capture of the capitol,
which is inevitable, seems impossible.
They must either surrender or die.
AT o'clock. tonight, the custom house
was taken after 10 hours fight. The
Associated press representative counted
60 killed as result of this, fight, The
Dalton block, where the A,Iierican con-
10 IF h,a fN,aFSpp hyjCinpSS
houses are located, was captured at
o'clock. ''' ~ pc+

are concerned. They are not protect
ed by the Interstate commerce clause

ANOTHER PHRASE.

There is another phrase of the ques-
ton which may be suggested and hence
should be considered, viz: Whether
| the statute infringes any constitutional
right of the individual irrespective of
its limitation of the powers of insur-
ance corporations. The constitutional
right of trial by jury is Il right, not a
duty. and may be waived by the indiv-
| ual. 1t is waived by him as to the as
sesSment of his damages if he volun-
tarly enters into q contract like the
statutory standard insurance policy,
wherein it is mutually stipulated that
the damages provided for shall be de-,
termined by arbitration. 1t may be
urged, however, that this contract, the
terms of which are prescribed by stat
ute, is not voluntary, in that the indi-
vidual is practically prevented from
making contracts for the protection of
his property by insurance, except such
contracts as requires him to waive his
right of trial by jury; in that he is prac-
tically compelled to enter into that par
ticular contract or go without insurance
protection. But the broad question of
the constitutional right of the individual
to make and enforce contracts for the
requirement. possession and protection
I of property by insurance or otherwise
free from legislative Interference is not
presented here. Whatever the extent of
the constitutional right of the individu-
al to make insurance contracts with
other individuals or unincorporated as
sociatons of individuals, we think it
clear from the principles above stated
that he has no constitutional right to
make any particular insurance contract
with corporation. True, the complete
power of the Legislature to limit or de-
stroy the right of a corporation to make
contracts necessarily includes the power
to limit or destroy the right of the indi-
vdual to make contracts with it, but
this incidental result cannot be held to
limit the power of the Legislature over
it's own creature the corporation. The
Legislature is not required by the con-
stitution to create corporations for IN
! dividuals to make contracts with, nor is
! it prohibited from limiting or dissolving
corporations with which individuals
may wish to contract. 1t follows that
the statute cited and inquired about Is
constitutional, being within the Legls-
lative cognizance and not forbidden by
any section or clause of the constitution,
state or federal
We answer both questions in the af-
firmative
