HANDS CRACKED
 AND BLEEDING
And Fingers Were All Drawn up With Eczema Cure of Nearly Twenty Years Ago by the CutIcura Treatment Have Had no Further Trouble with Hands Since,
PERMANENT CURE BY
 CUTICURA REMEDIES

"My mother was badly afflicted by a species of eczema or salt rheum in her hands. They were very bad. She was treated by her family physician for over three months and no benefit, Then she thought she would try the Cuticura Remedies, and very soon found relief. Her hands cnd fingers were all drawn up and cracked and bleeding. They very soon commenced to heal up and in less than three months were about we'll. She used the Soap, l don't know how many boxes of the Ointment and four bottles of the Resolvent. For two years she was entirely free from the disease, when it came on again; but as she uaed the Remedies immediately, was soon cured, and has had no more trouble with her hands for nearly twenty years.
 "For years she has always had the Ointment in the house and used 1t occasionally in the winter time. She has recommended it to many people and always speaks well of it and would use it again if needed, and she thinks no Soap is equal to the Cuticura Soap.
 "She is willing you should publish the above if you care to. Very truly yours, Wm. A. Young, 50 Russell St., New Bedford, Mass, July 3l, l905."

Beauty of the New Spring Silks
 Guimpe Dresses Again-Model Gowns
 in Soft Silk and Thin Fabrics.
 Soft silks in pale colors are being made into charming spring gowns. Many of the models are delightfully."-. simple The skirts are wide and full, and in a number of cases are trimmed only with tucks. One of these in mauve with an almost invisible hair stripe of white was plaited over the hips, the plaits stitched fiat for five or six inches below the waist. About the knees was a deep tuck and below had the appearance of a full fiounce with two wide tucks above the hem The waist was plaited, and was cut square at the neck to show lace guimpe, A fancy bertha collar outlin- ed the decollete, and a sleeveband to match outlined the armhole of the gown. These were embroidered. A very wide folded belt gave suggestion of a high waist
 A shopper picked up a short dress length of black and cream-colored Liberty satin last fall at a very mo- derate price. She rather regretter her bargain later, as the material seemed too scant to do much with. Her dressmaker has just made 1t into a most delightful house gown. The material has all been put into a princess skirt with d high waist end ing in folded girdle two inches above the waist-line. A large silver buckle, set with pale green stones, fastens the girdle in front. The girdle, instead of dipping down. points down, points upward accentuating the high-waisted effect. The skirt is finished above the hem with four tucks each, two inches wide. This skirt Is worn over a waist made entirely of valenciennes lace frills. At the throat there is a tiny cravat, with succession of lit- tie black satin bows, which fall down the front of the waist.
 There are plenty of these princess skirts to be worn over thin blouses, For the street stylish little jackets are added. Sometimes the skirt material and the jacket material are entirely different in texture and color. When the skirt is a shepherds check, the jacket will sometimes be of broadcloth. 4. model of this description was seen in well-known shop. The skirt was of white serge, barred with blue and black lines. It was box-pleated, and fitted we'll over the hips There was

 Judge Hamilton's appearance was to- tally unexpected by the committee and he declared both in his speech and to friends that it was almost as much so to himself-that it was only at luncheon .o-day that the impulse seized him to come before the committee and have his say in favor of ttle bill referred to, with a word for President Mccall and for himself. He arrived unannounced not long after 4 o'clock, sat back in the room, and for a time was recOgniz- ed only by one or two newspaYer men.

NO SALEoF WALSH RAILROADS.
Terms Demanded by the Chicago Cred
 itOrs Not Satisfactory.

New York, March Representa- tives of the Chicago clearing house committee which has charge of the af- fairs of John R. Walsh, the insolvent banker of that city, were in conference here to-day with the heads of the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern railway, the Pennsylvania railroad and the Rock Island company. The conference had to do with the sale of the Walsh rail- road properties-the Indiana Southern and Chicago Southern railways.
 The conference lasted several hours. No statement was issued by any of the principals but it was learned that no agreement was reached because of the terms demanded by the Chicago cred- itors.
 The Indiana Southern railway has a funded debt of $5,0OO, 900, with assets in excess of $11, 100000. The Chicago Southern railways funded debt is $4,- OO0,OOO and the capital stock $1,5O0,000
 Just what propositions were made at the meeting could not be ascertained, but it was reported that the creditors favored the sale of the two companies assets, the proceeds to be thrown into the bonds.
 In financial circles recently it was de- clared that Walsh's creditors had named $25,OOO,00O as the minimum price they would take for the railway prop critics. The offer of the Lake Shore Pennsylvania-R Rock Island combination is said to be near $20 GOO, ,000.
 The Chicago committee is expected to submit the offer of the combination to the creditors without delay.

ALDERMEN DINE.
Delightful Social Event Enjoyed b!
 SOlvers of City's Problems.

The social side of the board of alder men was emphasized last evening, when the members of the board, with few invited guests, gathered at the Hotel Oneco and enjoyed an informal and de- lightful banquet, which was projected by the members at the last meeting of the board. The main idea or the affair was to weld the board into a more uni- fled whole from the social standpoint, and the evidence was that the object was attained All of the members pres- ent were called upon for an informal talk, in which each concealed under a bantering style and flow of humor the more serious and never entirely sub l iected side of aldermanic interest.
 Mayor Studley was the principal guest of honor He spoke especially on , the importance of the work which has been done by the present board, espe- cially in connection with the cut propo- sition. He said that, in his opinion, the cut improvements would mark turn ing point in New Haven's history, and that the city would become mors pros- porous and greater from its completion than ever before.
 President Townshend presided as toastmaster and was in most witty mood. Besides Mayor Studley, City Sheriff Kollerstrom, Assistant City Clerk Ambrose V. Beecher and Page Hawley Lincoln were the guests. The aldermen present included President Townshend, Homan, Johnson, Loos, AL len, Smith, Healy, Courtney, Hamilton Collins, Hotchkiss, Curtiss and Nathan son.
 The committee in charge consisted of Aldermen Townshend, Johnson and Al len. and so well was their good service appreciated that the members are all ready talking another banquet. Votes of thanks to the committee and to MT Sullivan, of the Oneco, were adopted.

Interesting and We'll Conducted Boxing
 Exhibition at Eagles Hall.
 The New Haven Eagles last night gave a very enjoyable and well-con- ducted smoker at their hall, corner of Chapel and Union streets, during which, besides other entertainment, there was a swift twelve-round bout between NGosey King, of New London, and young Battling Nelson, known as the Butch CT Boy" of New York. The latter seemed the heavier and stronger in the opening rounds, but King, as seems his custom, gained steam and power as he went on. Nelson attempted number of times to land some vicious swings and uppercuts, but Mosey was never present to receive them. The New Yorker played for his opponents left eye and succeeded in opening an old wound that bled profusely several times. In the tenth and twelfth rounds King had his man all but out, and es- pecially so in the twelfth, when Nelson was saved by the gong. There was no decision, but King certainly had the best of it.
 There were two other gos-one of four rounds between Young Ford and Kid Kit" of this city, and another of ten between John Denny, the Greek, of this city, and Harry Lutz, of New York, Lutz proved himself very clever box CT. but Denny was much heavier, All the bouts were at catehweights. Mar tie McCue, of New York, refereed.
 The committee is to be congratulated on the good, clean exhibitions of the manly art which it provided.

QUESTIONS CANDIDATES
ON TEMPERANCE ISSUE
Mrs. BcauChamp, President of
W. c. 7. IT,, Asks for
information.

Mrs. Frances f. Beauchamp,
of Lexington, President of the
Kentucky Woman's Christian
Temperance Union, has written an
open letter to Senator James B.
McCreary and Gov. j. G. w.
Beclham, candidates for United
States Senator, asking them to de-
fine their position on points which,
Mrs. Beauchamp says, are of much
interest to the temperance people.
She asks both how they will
vote on the Terrill bill, prohibit
ing the sale of liquor on govern
ment property, and on other inn
portant questions involving the
temperance issue. The letter is
as follows:
Lexington, KY, Oct. 5, 1906.
Senator Jas. B. McCreary and
Gov. j. G. w. Beckham.
Honorable Gentlemen: - The
temperance people of the State
can but be highly gratified that at
last their opinions are receiving
recognition by the honorable gen
tlemen who are seeking Office
through their suffrage. 1t is a
matter of congratulation that you
have each repeatedly declared
your position on the County Unit
law, SO it will, of course, be ar
easy matter for you to declare
your position on some nationa
points of equal interest to the tenn
perance voters of Kentucky.
At the urgent request of mum
lber of these Democratic voters anG

dreds Of temperance women of tn

There is thus placed before the
Democrats of Kentucky the ques-
ton whether it is politically safe
for leader in that party to stand
for moral issues. This is unfortu-
nately not the only issue in the
pending campaign, but this is an
issue and this is the way it pre-
sents itself to every man who seeks
the moral welfare of the Demo
cratic party.
1t must be said in all fairness
to Senator McCreary that publicly
and privately he declares himself
in favor of the local option laws
and the enforcement of all the laws
affecting saloons and gambling.
His personal record is not assailed.
Yet he cannot deny that the whis-
key vote is unanimously and Wig
orously supporting his candidacy.
He returned from Washington to
find the large liquor vote ready to
support any man to destroy Beck
ham. The Senator allowed the
liquor vote to come to his support.
Leading liquor men and leaders
are for him in Lexington and
Louisville though Senator Nc
Creary is by no means such man
as the liquor element would natur-
ally prefer as their candidate.
Doubtless this element is not sup
porting the Senator so much for
his own sake asfor the sake of
furnishing the Governor. And
doubtless, again, the Senator
would not prefer to have the
liquor vote the worst element in
our citizenship solidly support
ing him, but he seems unwilling
to allow this vote, seeking a candi-
date, to be lost. This is the sit
uation and the main element in it's
explanation,
This, theft, is the dpshot of the !
situation, The temperance cause
in Kentucky, whiie h8t Identical
with tile cause Of any individual,
would SITTER y very serious loss
and delay IN the defeat of Govern
Or Beckham, and his nomination
would be of incalculable advan-
sage to our cause, since it would
be an undoubted lining up of the
great dominant party in the State
on the side of moral ideals and law
enforcement. Here is the first
opportunity since the triumph of
our efforts last winter to place our
endorsement on the man who
made possible that success And
it is an opportunity, once for all,
to put the Democratic party ON the
side of right in this great moral
question; an opportunity which ii
lost now may be long delayed in
coming agaiV,.
