eign minister, telegraphed to the am

. ROOT NOT TO RESIGN.
Secretary War VIII Remain In the
Cabinet,

Cabinet.
. Oyster Bay, Aug. 12.-The attention
of the president tenight was directed
to a circumstantial statement, pub
lished today, that Secretary Root ex-
pected soon to retire from the cabinet,
to be succeeded by Governor Taft, of
the Philippines. It can be said that
there is no denfite foundation for the
story. The president, since the first
intimation many months ago of Secre-
tary Roots possible retirement, has
hoped, and still hopes, that he will re-
main in the cabinet for a long time.
He believes that the secretary will re-
main through the coming winter, and
probably much longer time.

CAT is PET OF PRISONERS.
Staneh Friend of the Convicts at
MICHIGAN City.

The pet of the prisoners at the Indi-
ana State Prison at Michigan City is a
gray cat, said to be the largest animal
of the kind in the state. 1t weighs
twenty-five pounds. is nine years old
and has been inside the big walls since
it was kitten. All over the big insti-
tuition it is known as Tige.
Warden Reid, who values the animal
very highly, says that Tige has queer
fondness for the prisoners, one of
whom claims to be its master and from
whom 1t receives all kinds of attention.
The cat makes UP with very few of
the officers, allows no familiarities on
the part of strangers or visitors, but in
every case expects the caress of the
prisoner and gets it.
In its early days 1t was the cats Gus
tom to visit the cellhouse and to make
friendly calls along the ranges rubbing
Its fur at each grated door and singing
its little song as if it wished to purr
out its sympathy for the confined. But
there came time when its place was
usurped by another of its kind and this
resulted in the old haunts being aban-
doned. This was brought about by the
cellhouse keeper bringing to his abode
the newcomer has been unrelenting.
Tige may now be seen about the yard,
coming and going without hindrance.
Most OF the time it stays about the
pump house. where its master holds
sway and where no other feline may
lntrude and get away without a fight.

When All Else Fails.

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 disagurements, as In
acne and ringworm; the awful suffer-

out parents, as in milk crust, letter and

almost superhuman virtues to success
fully cope with them. That Cuticura
Soap, Ointment and Resolvent are such
stands proven beyond all doubt. No
statement is made regarding them that
is not justified by the strongest evil
dence The purity and sweetness, the
power to afford immediate relief, tho
certainty of speedy and permanent cure,
the absolute safety and great economy,
i've made them the standard skin
cures, blood purifiers and humour rene
dies of the civilized word.
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
rubbing, and apply Cuticura Oint-
ment freely, to allay itching, irritation
and Inflammation, and soothe and heal,
and, lastly, take Cuticura Resolvent, to
cool and cleanse the blood. This COM
plete local and constitutional treatment
affords instant relief, permits rest and
sleep in the seyerest forms of eczema
and other itching, burning and scaly
humours of the skin, scalp and blood,
and points to speedy, permanent and
economical cure when all else fails.

San Bernardino Railroad Men Have 8
Snowfall Fight.

There was lots of fun for the boys
al the Santa F'e shops yesterday as a
result of the snow fall. says the san
Bernardino Times-Index. Everywhere
the long tiled roofs of the buildings
were covered with the beautiful" while
the flakes were thick upon the tops of
the box cars and on all objects that
would give the least suggestion Of sup
port. SnOwballing was rife and many
was the man who had his SCOT covered
and begrimmed face washed by a chilli
ing missile. The foremen, evidently rea-
lizing that the event came even less Of
ten than Chris tmas, were lenient. and
the fun was enjoyed uninterruptedly.
The trains which came in from over the
hill, both freight and passenger, were
covered. Especially on the tops of the
box cars was it piled high and the
brakemen had their fun as the freights
pulled into the yards. snowballing the
yard men, who were at a disadvantage
considering their position. It would GER
tainly be a diversion for the men if the
snow would come every once in q. while.
The trainmen coming down through
the Cajon report that a furious storm
is raging at Summit and that yesterday
afternoon it was impossible to see over
two car lengths ahead.
