BABY WASTED ID MERE SKELETON
In Torments a Year and a Half with Terrible Sores on Face and Body Hands Tied to Stop Scratching and Tearing at Flesh But
CURE BY CUTICURA
 COMPLETE AND SPEEDY

"My little son, when about c year and q half old began to have sores come out on bis face. had phy- sician treAt him, but the sores grew worse. Then they began to come on his arms, then on other parts of his body, and then one came on his chest, worse than the others. Then called another physi- clan. Still he grew worse. At the end of about e year and half of suffering he grew so bad I had to tie his hands in cloths at night to keep him from scratching the sores and tearing the desh. He got to be mere skeleton, and was hardly able to walk. My aunt advised me to try Cuticura Soap and Ointment. So great was her faith in it that she gave me small piece of Cuticura Soap to try and . little Cuticura Ointment. I took it home without any faith, but to please her tried it, and it seemed to dry up the sores Q little. sent to the drug store and got cake of Cuticura Soap and . box of Cuticura Ointment and followed the directions, and at the end of about two months the sores were all well. He has never had any sores of any kind since. He is now strong and healthy, and can sincerely say that only for your most wonderful remedies my pre- cious child would have died from those terrible sores. 1 used only one cake of Soap and about three boxes of Ointment.

HERMANN UP TREE
CROSS EXAMINATION BY GOvERN-
 MENT COUNSEL CALLING.
Proved That Both Former Commits sioner and His Son Acquired Public Lands During His
 Tenure of Onacc.

washington, April 9.-Interest In the trial of Binger Hermann for de- stroying public records received a de- cided impetus when the, defendant. who had been testifying In his own behalf for the past five days. was put under cross examination shortly be- fore the close of the session.
 After saying positively that no mem- bers of his family had acquired pub lie lands during his administration, MT. Hermann qualified the statement later by adding that his son. Schiller. had made 8 homestead entry to which title had not been acquired; that Schil- Ter had purchased three such entries. before patent had been issued to the claimant and that these purchases had been acquired for ss,ooO in.gold by the defendant to relieve Schlller's embar- rassed financial condition.
 Mir. Hermann admitted that he had acquired 30,000 acres of public lands in Oregon when he was receiver of public moneys at the Rosebourg land office. This. he maintained. was not the cause of his losing his position. The records of these transactions as well as those relating to the claims purchased by Schiller were made ex. hibits in the case. In the latter mat ter. Mir. Hermann had written mem- orandum directing the patents. to be mailed to his son.
 U. S. Attorney Bakers next move was to produce the copy of tele- gram sent by the defendant to P. F.. Mayes. Portland. Ore. July 15. 1909. three days before the proclamation cre- ating the Blue Mountain forest res serve, which MT. Baker contended was the tip" promised Mayes by Herr mann that the former might take the necessary steps to make entry in the for in this reserve. The telegram MT :. Hermann admitted sending.
 In his direct examination. Hermann had testified that he had never had any business relations with Mayes, had nev- CT written him, nor had interviews with him: that Mayes had no interest In the Blue Mountain Reserve. that Hermann know of, and what he wished the jury and court to understand that statement to be as strong as the English language could make 1t.
 Mir. Baker read this statement from the record. and asked the defendant If when he made it, he did not think all traces of this telegram had been de' stroyed in the destruction of his letter books. Mir. Herman would not admit this. He said he now remembered the telegram and explained that 1t must have been sent either in answer to q telegraphic request from Mayes or more likely because Hermann knew Mayei as a leading public man of Oregon ant simply wished him informed of the act

 with the exception of a part of Shakespeares King John. the closing poem by Ella Wheeler Wilcox, the program of the evening was made up of negro dialect stories, for which the voice of the monodramatist was espe- cialiy fitted.

STORM IN AUTAUGA.
Great Damage Done at Mulberry and
 Independeuce.

Independence.
 Prattville. April 9.--t6peoial )-- News of quite destructive cyclone that passed over the western and cen- tral portion of Autauga County. has just reached here.
 The cyclone seems to have swooped down upon the little town of Null berry and did much damage in blow ing down and wrecking tenement houses in It's path. It is miraculous that some of the occupants of these houses were not killed. Only a few were injured. and none fatally.
 The storm appears to have arisen high in the air at Selma and came down at Mulberry and thence took a hortheasterly course to Independ- ence. The school house at Mulberry was damaged, almost wrecked, but the teacher Miss Kate Howard. and all the children escaped.
 The damage was great on some plan. tations as there was not left a tene- ment house. At Independence. besides blowing down tenement houses, Bethesda Bap- tist Church was blown down.
 This storm was not felt at Prattvtlle and did not exceed 300 yards in width.
