GIRL BAbY'S
AWFUL ECZEMA
Sight Of Eye Destroyed by Disease
Tried Five Doctors but Grew
Worse In Agony Eight Months
Parents Discouraged, Until
They Tried Cuticura Remedies
IN ONE WEEK ALL
SORES DISAPPEARED

"Our little girl, one year and n half
old. was taken with eczema or that was
what the doctor said it was. We called
in the family doctor and he gave some
tablets and said she would be all right
in q few days. The eczema grew worse
and we called in doctor No. 2. He
said she was teething, as soon as the
teeth were through she would be all
right. But she still grew worse. Doc
tor No. 3 said it was eczema. BY this
time she was nothing but a yellow,
greenish sore. Well he said he could
help her, so we let him try it about
a week. One morning We discovered
q little yellow pinople on one Of her
eyes. OF course we 'phoned for doctor
No. 8. he came over and looked her
over and said that he could not do any,
thing more for her, that we had better
take her to some eye specialist, since it
was an ulcer. So we went to Oswego
to doctor No. 4 and he said the eye-
sight was gone, but that he could help 1t.
We thought we would try doctor No. s.
We'll. that proved the same, only he
charged Sl0 more than doctor No. 4.
We We're nearly discouraged. I saw
one Of the Cuticura advertisements IN
the paper and thought we would try
the Cuticura Treatment, so | went and
purchased a set of Cutlcura Remedies,
which cost me 81, and in three days
our daughter, who had been sick about
eight months, showed great improve
ment. and in one week all sores had dis
appeared. or course 1t could not re-
store the eyesight, but if we had used
Cuticura in time l am confident that
it would have saved the eye. We think
there is no remedy so good for any skin
trouble or impurity of the blood as
Cuticura. Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Abbott,

IN COURT.

Ed. Hoover. the Northern Pacific
conductor, charged with assault with
deadly weapon upon the person of T.

Superior Court.
According to the stories of the wit
nesses for the state, as submitted in
court this afternoon, Townsend was a
passenger on the Northern Pacific road
from this city to Eureka at the time of
'he alleged assault. AS Hoover was
collecting fares, he encountered Town
send and after several words were ex
changed, Hoover struck Townsend sew
eral severe blows on the face with his
ucket punch. The injured man was
taken to Eureka and DR.. Braden of this
city summoned. His injuries, though
not serious, We're extremely painful.
1t is the intention of the defense TO
endeavor to prove that Townsend was
intoxicated at the time and that he was
the aggressor in the trouble which fol-

POOL AT Y. M. 6. A. b. O. G
MAY BE USED THIS
WEEK..

This afternoon nearly hundred
the ages of 10 and II, are enjoying
themselves to their hearts content in
the swimming pool of the Y. M. c. A.
The association has invited the boys
the swimming tank, free of charge, on
the different afternoons of this week.
This afternoon the Sharpstein school
leads off, tomorrow will be the day for
the Baker school lads. Thursday will
be given to Green Park, Friday, to
Lincoln, and Washington school will
probably occupy the tank Saturday
morning, although that date has not
been definitely decided as yet. The af
ternoon hours are from $3.50 to 5 and
Saturday morning the youngsters will
probably swim from until II.
These invitations have been issued
to the school boys of the city in order
20 interest them in the Y. M. C. A.,
work and show them what the asso-
clatlOn intends to do Tor the DOyS OIL
the city.
A junior department has been ar
ranged for in the Y. NJ. C. A. with
special rooms for the boys and special
hours in the gymnasium will be given
them with all the attention their eld-
ers get. The junior work is one of the
most important works the association
is carrying on. AS it is a new thing
ir, this city. it will be little hard at
first, perhaps, to get the boys interest
ed, but when they learn the advantages
the association has for them at a NOM
inal cost, every boy in the city will
want to hold a membership.

YOUNG MAN PASSED SEVERAL
CHECKS SATURDAY NIGHT
AND LEFT TOWN.

c. W. Wooder, alias, Arthur Wright,
is wanted by Sheriff Havland on the
charge of forgery, committed in this
city Saturday afternoon and evening.
Wooder signed checks to the amount
of s152.75; and several local business
houses are numbered among his vic
Tins.
While the forgeries were committed
Saturday afternoon and evening, the
matter was kept as secret as possible
until last evening, when the details of
the crime were made public. 1t is
presumed that this action was taken
for the reacon that Wooder is now un-
der the WatchfuI eye of the police and
county officials.
At the Motter- Wheeler Store It Is
believed WOoder committed his first
crime of forgery. He appeared before
one of the clerks, and told him that he
was from Kansas, where he had work
ed in a bank. He seemed to have but
very little trouble is cashing a checl

OF clothes and a stiff hat
Nooder then went to the Hanger
thompson store where he cashed a
check to the amount of S35. After
purchasing few small and unexpen-
slVe articles he visited Schwabacher's
establishment. and successfully pas
sed check for $50.

BOND QUESTION
COMMERCIAL CLUB TO MEET TO-
NIGHT AND TAKE SOME
ACTION.

AT meeting of the Commercial club
in the rooms in the Ransom building
tonight, the matter of the taking up of
the city hail bonds will be discussed at
length and if possible some means of
floating the bonds will be adopted
That the matter of disposing of the
bonds will be a difficult one, the men,
bers of the club do not believe Many
citizens of Walla Walla have already
expressed their willingness to take
liberal slice of the 100000 issue and
there are also many farmers who are
willing to place their money on the Sc
curities. In fact, nearly the entire is
sue has been promised and there is
little doubt but that the money will be
raised shortly and the building will
soon be completed.
A full attendance of the club is i'm
perative to discuss this and any others
who are interested in the matter are
invited to be present.
Besides the matter of the city bonds,
any other matter which is 10 be dis
cussed, will come up at this meeting,
as it will take the place of the regu-
lar monthly meeting of the club next
Thursday light.
1t is understood that several matters
sides that of the city bonds and the
officers of the club are especially anx-
ious to have a full attendance of the

WHEAT KINGS
WILL SUFFER
INDIAN LANDS WILL BE LEASED
TO THOSE WHO LIVE ON
SAME.

Something of a sensation has been
created among the WheatgroWers and
the leaseholders on the Umatilla res
ervation by the announcement that or
ders had been issued by the interior
department making radical changes in
conditions imposed.
According to Indian Agent McPat-
ridge. who was in Pendleton the other
day. he has received positive instruc-
tions regarding the new conditions,
which will do away with the farming
bv some of the wheat kings on such
an immense scale. These instructions
are to the effect that hereafter when
a lease of Indian land is issued, the
Ieaseholder shall reside upon the land
from this rule, and no lease will be
authorized that does not contain this
provision.
The importance of this ruling may
he realized when it is understood there
are men living in the city of Pendle-
ton who are farming as high as 5000
acres upon which there is not single
house. In some instances the leases
have been made and then sublet to less
lucky farmers.
1t is upon the big wheat kings who
have made fortunes out of the Indian
leases that the blow will fall heaviest.
To them the ruling means the loss OF
thousands upon thousands of dollars,
as they will not be able to take up their
residence upon leaseholdings which
are scattered.
The ruling does not apply to those
holders of leases which have not ex-
nired. but as soon as they do expire
the rule goes into effect. 1t VIII mean
the cutting up of the big holdings into
smaller holdings and the invasion Oh
the reservation by a more humble class
of growers and the crowding out OF
the big wheat kings. !hj. AKA
