"Last year at this time I suffered
with a tremendous itching on my

til it spread over the whole body, and
only my face and hands were free.
For four months or so / suffered the
torments Of the damned, and / had to

At night when l went to bed things
got worse, and / had at times to get
up and scratch my body all over, until
! was as sore as could be, and until /
suffered excruciating pains. l did not
know what it was, and resorted to a
number of blood purifiers, using at
times also Cuticura Soap. They told
me then that | was suffering from
eczema. Then / made up my mind
that / would also use Cuticura Oint-
ment and Cuticura Resolvent. l used

has been received in this city from an
officer of the steamship Empire the

The custom house records show that the
Empire carried no cargo and when the
cable told of her arrival at Corinto with
arms, ammunition and large number OF
fighting men, members of the Guatemala
revolutionary army, the report was re-
ceived here with incredulity. Even tho
broker who acted as agent for the own
ers OF the vessel expressed surprise.
In the letter the writer gives an ac.
count of the Empires trip to Corinto,
and how arms and ammunition were put
on board at sea by tug outside OF this
port. Upon arrival at Tonola, near the
southern extremity OF the Mexican coast.
the Empire, it is said, took on board
about 80 leaders OF the revolutionary
party, with General Castillo in charge.
