MASSACRE OF POLISH JEWS
HORRIBLE SLAUGHTER OCCURS
IN RUSSIAN TOWNS.
Troops Murder. and Pillase Without
Mercy-vlctlms Number at
Least 200.

st. Petersburg.-The predictions of
Jewish massacre at Siedlce, Russian
Poland, unhappily have been justified
by the fighting which broke out Sat
urday night, and developed Sunday
into carnival of indiscriminate
slaughter and pillage in which the SOL
diery and the mob took part Jews
were shot and bayoneted in the streets
of the town. Houses and shops were
broken into and sacked. Valuables
were carried off and offered for sale
by soldiers to passengers on passing
trains.
In addition to the Jews number
of Christians and even some officers
met their death in the fighting.
Siedlce.-A delegation of citizens
asked the governor to order the
troops to cease firing, but the COVER
nor replied that the citizens must de-
liver up their leaders and the revolu-
tionists or otherwise the city would
be bombarded.
The authorities assert that 15 ter
rorists have arrived here from War
saw and that they must be arrested
before any of the inhabitants are per-
mitted to .leave the city.
1t ia reported that 200 persons, most
of them Jews, were killed, many in
their flats.
The scenes Sunday and Monday
were Of unspeakable horror. Every
where there were screams and cries
mingled with the sound of shooting
Soldiers invaded the restaurant of
the Victoria hotel and destroyed the
furniture of the establishment and
carried off the wines and liquors.
Warsaw.-Four terrorists Monday
evening entered a restaurant in Elek-
toralna street. where a number of de-
tectives had assembled, and shot and
killed the proprietor. The assassins
in trying to escape met policeman
and two soldiers, whom they shot and
wounded. The soldiers in neighbor-
ing barrack, hearing the shots, rushed
through the street beating and bay
oneting all whom they encountered.
Eleven persons were severely wound
ed.
In a collision Monday afternoon be-
tween civilians and a patrol in the
Jewish quarter 20 of the former were
wound ed, six of them seriously.
There were several collisions be-
tween soldiers and revolutionists Mon
day night.

MAINE ELECTION VERY CLOSE
Republican Plurality Is Cut Into by
the Democratic Vote.

Portland, Me.-Gov. William T.
Cobb, of Rockland, Republican,
standing on a platform devoted almost
exclusively to continuance of the
prohibitory law of the state, was re-
elected Monday by plurality of less
than 5000, with but few exceptions
the smallest margin of votes ever CIV
en- Republican governor in the state
of Maine.
Cyrus w. Davis, of Waterville, the
Democratic candidate for governor,
polled one of the largest votes in the
history of the party in this state. His
issue in the campaign was the resub-
mission of the liquor question which
was incorporated in the state legisla-
ture four years ago.
/ More interesting from certain
standpoint was the reelection Of Con-
gressman Charles e. Littlefield,
Republican, in the Second dis
trict by a greatly reduced plural
ity. Congressman Littlefield's can
didacy was the subject of bitter
opposition on the part of Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation of Labor, who asked for
his defeat on the grounds that he had
voted against certain labor measures
at the last session of congress.
The issue between Gompers and
Littlefield was taken up by the Re-
publican congressional committee and
for three weeks the district has been
the scene of hard fight in which Sec
retary of War William H. Taft, Sena-
tor Lodge and Senator Beveridge and
several congressman were pitted
against the head of the Federation of
Labor.

SECOND HAND MAIL BOXES.
Why Little Village May Have Big
Numbers in Its Post Office.

The man who was spending his
summer vacation in the country was
looking quizzically at the mail boxes
in the rural post Office.
81 did not know this was such a
large place." he said. 81 thought 1t
had population of only about 1000,
but the mail box numbers run much
higher than that, and l don't suppose
every one in town rents box either"
The postmaster peered out of his
little barred window.
Il can explain that" he said. "You
see the country post offices never
get new boxes. but we have those
left over when the city establishments
make over their Offices and get new
boxes. So you see lots of country
places are bound to have high num-
ber boxes.
although our numbers run over
1000, you won't find any less than
1000, some other country post office
drew the lower ones. / myself would
rather get the big numbers, for it
makes us seem like bustling little

Institution which is for young wom-

What is worse, 1t is impracticable. We
are glad the task is to be performed
by women. No man nor set of men
would ever have dared tackle such a
problem--not they. This is simply
another example of woman's inhu.
manity to woman.
We have been told for many ages
that woman is as old as she looks

now, we say it with regret most WON.

Methuselah. But the general rule
seems good one. It Is a plain, un.
palatable fact that women will deceive
as to their age as long as possible and
then openly lie about 1t. There are
many women who were born during
the ravages of the civil war who still
claim sweetly to be In the thirties.

TERRIBLE scALY ECZEMA.
Eruptions Appeared on Chest, and
Face and Neck Were All Broken
Out-Cured by cuticura.

II had an eruption appear on my
chest and body and extend upwards
and downwards, so that my neck and
face were all broken out; also my
arms and the lower limbs as far as
the knees. l at first thought it was
prickly heat. But soon scales or
crusts formed where the breaking out
was. Instead of going to physician 1
purchased complete treatment of the
Cuticura Remedies, in which l had
great faith, and all was satisfactory.
A year or two later the eruption ap.
peared again, only little lower; but
before 1t had time to spread l pro-
cured another supply of the Cuticura
Remedies, and continued their use un-
til the cure was complete. 1t is now
five years since the last attack, and
have not seen any signs of return.

dies for skin diseases than anything
