 ITCHES AND BURNS

The return of warm weather means a return of torture to Eczema sufferers. The blood is charged with burning acids and acrid matter which is forced to the surface through the pores and glands, forming pustules which discharge sticky fluid, and the itching is intense.

There are still some indications that
liouor Is being sold illegally in this
eity. and the principal evidence is the
successful raids which the police make
from time to time. On nearly every
occasion when search warrants have been
issued and carried out liquor has been
found, making it plain that some per-
sons are conducting the traffic in defiance
Of the law. 1t is not wise to attempt
to disguise the fact, nor would it be
creditable. we have no desire, either,
to hide behind mantle Of white and
declare chat because Barre is no.hcense
there il no violation. It is probable
and quite likely that as the months Of
the no.license regime lengthen into a
year chronic law breakers will, and Do,
gain courage aud resolve to make a
try. That they are taking q try in
Barre Is certain Consequently it is up
to the authorities to complete the test
by showing these people that no viola
ton 81 the law viii be tolerated. The
Times has been pleased to note from
time to time the efforts which have
been put forth to crush this particular
form OF the breaking Of the law Of the
state, for it is the illegal trafiieker in
liquor that takes the most and greatest
chances. Let the efforts Of the states
attorney, Of tie city authorities, Of the
police and the sheriff's department be
redoubled to stamp out whatever viola
ton Of the liquor law there may be in
Barre, and let the people Of the city
lend their moral support. We believe
that this sentiment is in the ascendency,
that 50 long as no-license il the policy
Of the city that there be no-license in

FIXING RAILROAD RATES.

Making railroad rates is like play.
ing game of checkers or chess. Com
munities to be benefited, producers,
manufacturers or shippers to be aided
represent the pieces used. Every pos.
sible move is studied for its effect
on the general result by skilled traf-
fic managers. A false move in the
making of freight rates may mean the
ruin of city, of great manufacture
ing interest, of an agricultural com.
munity. Railroads strive to build up
all these so that each may have an
equal chance in the sharp competi-
ton of business. So sensitive to this
rivalry are the railroads that in order
to build up business along their lines
they frequently allow the shipper 70
practically dictate rates. Rate max
ing has been a matter of development;
of mutual concessions for mutual
benefit. That is why the railroads Of
the United States have voluntarily
made freight rates so much lower in
this country than they are on the
government-owned and operated rail-
ways Of Europe and Australia that
they are now the lowest Transports
ton rates in the world.

SLAUGHTER OF JEWS
Two Factions Engage In Battle In
Polish Capital, Ten Being Killed
and Scores Injured.

Warsaw.-The Jewish disorders
which occurred here, it is said, arose
from an attempt of the Jewish So
cialist organization called the Bund to
purge the Hebrew district of Warsaw
of all disreputable persons. The
Bundites, with the view to expelling
their undesirable coreligionists, com
menced to wreck disorderly houses,
cafes and other resorts. The fighting
spread to the surrounding streets, con.
tinuing until midnight, ands recon-
mencing in the morning. Occasional
clashes are still occurring. The Bund-
ties have been permitted to carry on
the work of destruction without any
interference on the part Of the au'
thorities. Not single policeman was
visible. Occasionally patrol Of gend-
armes dispersed the crowds which,
however, were Immediately permitted
to gather again. There has been con-
siderable bloodshed and many injured
students have been taken to the hos
pitfalls. Fourteen of those wounded are
reported to be dying.
Four more persons have died as the
result of injuries received during the
fight.
The mob, armed with axes,
smashed the doors and windows and
brought the furniture out in the
streets! where they broke it into small
pieces. The owners of the furniture
in attempting to defend their belong
ings, were attacked, beaten and even
killed. Knives and revolvers were
used freely and many persons were
terribly injured.

According to an English specialist

they are more indolent and are not

much as men are. Hard intellectual
work and assiduous attention to bust.
ness, he says, are harmful SO far as
physical beauty Is concerned. AS
proof that his theory is correct, he
points to the Zaros, whose home is in
British India. Among them women
hold the place which in other coun-
tries is occupied by men. The Faro
woman manages the affairs Of state,
goes into business on her own account,
and does not walt for a proposal Of
marriage, but proposes herself; where
as the FARO man has nothing to do but
cook the meals and look after his chill
dren. The natural results, says the
scientist, Is that the men of this singu-
lar tribe are very pretty and the wom-

A conference was held on Tuesday

Barry opened the negotiations by
saying: sour position is this: want
all the men reinstated except those
who have been guilty of violence. /
cannot do anything different. That
is what the local union wants, and
that is what the local officers have
told me to demand. That is all I can
d.. The men told me that all want
to 60 back in a body or they won't
go back at all. That is the position
of the union and the union officials"
The reply of the representatives OF
the express companies was brief. 1t
was: sour position to the reinstate-
ment of the men will be the same four
years from now as it is today. We
will not take them back under any cir
cumstances."

Suicide of Illinois Man Taken as Con-
fession of Murder of Lawyer.
Savannah, Ills.-Bothwell Pulford,
reported to be the wealthiest citizen
of Savannah, committed suicide on
Thursday a few moments after being
questioned regarding the whereabouts
of a revolver with which he was sus-
pected of having slain Attorney Dan
S. Berry, former leading member OF
the Illinois legislature. Pulford had
denied any knowledge of the killing Of
Berry, but became agitated when
questioned concerning the revolver.
The story has been widely circulated
that Berry was killed as result of at
tention paid by him to a married
woman.
For two months Pulford has shown
signs of mental strain. When Berry
was killed in Pulford's opera house
last Monday and the authorities began
to question Pulford, it was evident to
those who knew him best that Pull
ford's mind was giving way.

The part that love has played in the
lives o. men and women of genius
never fills to interest the rest of the
world, but 1t is no matter OF surprise
to students Of human nature to dis
cover how few of these love stories
have represented anything like the
happiness which falls to the lot of well
behaved nobodies with only everyday
capacities, and hopes, and aspirations.
Occasionally two great natures may
reach the heights of those magnificent
solitudes of genius together, and enjoy
their splendid isolation in an atmos-
phere in which the more commonplace
would be exceedingly bored and un.
comfortable. It has probably been the
dream of every great mind to enjoy
this intellectual companionship, and,
in the first stages of youthful hope
and ardor, perhaps, to expect 1t.
