Rashes, ltchings and Chafings
Instantly Relieved and
SPEEDILY CURED BY CUTICURA.

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 sui.
fering of infants and the anxiety OF
worn-out parents, as in milk crust, tet-
ter and salt rheum - all demand rem
edy of almost superhuman virtues to
successfully cope with them. That Cuti-
cura Soap, Ointment and Resolvent 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 Of the civilized world.

That Auto Speed Ordinance FaIIed--Po-
lice Want Specific Law.
The city administration is somewhat
chagrined over the failure of the city
council to pass an automobile ordinance
to regulate the speed within the city.
The mayors purpose i'll requesting the
council to pass an ordinance was to OBJ
tain a law which would be more specific
than the state" law. The ordinance pro-
posed simply fixed minimum rates. There
would surely be a bitter controversy be-
tween the police and the automobiles as
to what should be considered the thiclkly
settled districts under the ordinance
consequently the police want the law tt
define clearly or mark out on the MAJ
the different zones of speed SO that wher
there are any violations detected there
will at least be no dispute as to the proper
district. It is not an easy matter under
any conditions to determine the rate O.
speed of an auto. The policeman ma,
know to a. certainty that the speed lini
is being exceeded but when called be
fore the court he would be unable to give
conclusive proof.

He Slept Only Short Time and Lost
iS an,

He Slept Only Short Time and Lost
His Gun.
A Rip Van Wrinkle story was told in
police court this morning. Bert Gage 4
l7-year- old boy residing in North Min
neapolis, was tried on charge of petty
larceny. He was accused of stealing a
shot gun from Peter Stewart. He aeSnowl-
edged that he had pawned the gun, but
said that it had been stolen by another
boy. Judge Dickinson sentenced him to
ten days in the worhhouse.
Stewart, the complaining witness, told
the court that, like Rip Van Winl1le his
principal amusements were to hunt with
his dog, Schneider and to drink the
good health of all his friends and their
families. Oct. IA he had started on a
hunting trip in the woods north Of Min
neapolis and was accompanied by Schnei-
der and bottle Of whisky. He had met
young Gage while on the way and the
two had walked together. Finally Stew
art produced the whisky bottle and offered
Gage drink and when the latter refused.
he poured down a liberal quantity of the
liquor, drinking to Cages health. He
soon fell asleep by the wayside and finally
was awakened by. Schneider. who jumped
upon him. He arose and rubbed his eyes
only to see a boy who rese1nbled Gage
disappearing in the distance with his gun.
lie gave chase. but the thief escaped. The
gun was later found in pawn SHOP

1T was in this fashion that the gem
tlemanly auctioneer disposed of 900
lots offered by the 500 line at it's an
nual auction Of unclaimed baggage
between the hours Of 10 a. m. and
2 p. m. to-day, and the auctlon-rooms
at 724 Nicollet avenue were crowded
with purchasers who were blessed
with money and with an active desire
to spend it..
Where the officials in charge Of the
sale expected Twenty-Five possible

find the speculative market dull they
found it Of the most lively sort. So
great was the crush to buy something
for a song, or nothing for money, that
the large number Of well-dressed
women who We're guided by gallantry
and a bargain-hunting instinct into
the place of vantage under the nose
of the auctioneer, were a sorry-lo cooking
lot when they. escaped. H
Among the pieces de resistance
which were disposed of during the
function was a vapor bath, which a
heavy-set person apparently pur-
chased under a misapprehension and
which he promptly discarded. Also,
there was grandfather's clock OF
generous proportions which went to
a bidder in the rear of the hall and
which, as it passed over the heads OF

an followed her bunch and secured
what appeared to be a silk dress, for

cap was seen to abstract "a small tack
hammer from a telescope" which
once came from the woods. He threw
! the rest away,
I The grab-bag effect produced BY
wrapping each bundle in the same
sort of paper appealed to the spec
tators to such an extent that, while
the prices paid varied from Is cents
for a small bundle to Sc for an empty

A SNEAK TOOK 5000.
Stole the, Money Right Out From
Under Sleeping Woman's
Head.
She Thought the Bills Were Safer
There Than in a
Bank.

While Mrs, Lillian Harrington was
asleep in her room in the boarding
house of Mrs. Mcclure, 1918 First
avenue >, Sunday night, a sneak thief
entered her room and stole $3.50 in
cash from beneath her pillow. So
quietly did the intruder work that Mrs.
harrington knew nothing of his visit
until the next morning when she
missed the money and found the
empty purse lying in the yard near
the house. She has no clue to the
thief.
Mrs. Harrington was formerly the
keeper of boarding house on Sew
enth street and recently disposed oe
her interests there. she had the
money In cash. consisting of seven
sl0O bills and $3.50 in SIS, $40 and $40
bills: Not caring to deposit the money
IN the bank, she left it in her purse,
which she kept under her pillow at
door locked. Altho the outer doors Of
the rooming house We're fastened, the
Kitchen door was found open Monday
morning.
When the money was missed, Mrs.
harrington at first suspected that it
had been taken by some inmate of the
house and SO reported to the police.
Detective Hicks went to the boarding
house and with the consent of Mrs.
Mcclure searched the place from cell
lar to garnet, Not content with this
search he took all the women to police
headquarters where they were
searched by Police Matron Schaeffer
The money was not found.
The police think that the money was
stolen by sneak thief who gained an
entrance to the place by means Of, a
skeleton key. AS they have no de.
scription of him and nothing was
taken but cash, there is little hope OF
experimenting him.

Contractors who have nearly completed
buildings still under way are not wer-

to don heavy clothing, winter caps and

riences of former Years and do not sus-
pend brick and stone laying for the sea-
son. They expect brick laying weather
this month and some in December.

The government is very strict about its
buildings in the frost sections of the. coun-
try, but the contractor is well within the
limits. Stone and pressed brick will not
absorb moisture, SO that the frost plays
havoc with the mortar. Stone is about as
bad, but the ordinary brick can be laid
almost any time Of the year. The effect
of the frost is no greater than that Of q
hot August sun, which dries out the NOR
tar before it sets. The percentage o.
damage in either case is only Is per cent
