nouncement relating to the redemp-
ton of the per cent bonds OF 1907 at
a price equal to the principal and in
terest to maturity is the measure in
tended by the secretary as the princi-
pal source Of relief to the money mar
ket. Under this announcement, hold
ers of the fours OF 1907 will receive
Immediately, upon presentation of the
bonds to the treasury department, the
full face value and 2 per cent addi-
tionaI, being the interst for one-half
year, from January i, to July l, 1907.
Under the previous offers Of the
Treasury to redeem these 4 per cent
bonds some holders have been reluct-
ant to part with them because Of the
expectation that the government would
open refunding operations at the time
of their maturity. In view of the fact
that there is now a large surplus in
the treasury and more than $4,000,
900 in the depositary banks, it is ap.
parent that the government could re,
deem these per cent bonds at ma
turity, if it SO desired, by paying them
off In cash and without the necessity
of resorting to refunding at all.
This fact may induce holders of the
bonds to present them now to the
treasury for redemption at the prices
offered
| Following is the secretary's circular
regarding the redemption of per cent
| bonds of the funded loan of 1907:
| "In accordance with the provisions
of existing law, the secretary of the
treasury hereby gives public notice
that he will redeem at any time after
this date, upon presentation, the reg
istered and coupon bonds of the pei
cent funded loan of 1907, to an amount
not exceeding $25,000.o0O and will pay
interest to July 1, 1907, upon the
bonds SO presented.
Bonds intended for redemption un
lder this circular should be forwarded
to the secretary Of the treasury, divi
sion Of loans and currency.
Registered bonds must be duly as
signed to the secretary of the treas
ury for redemption the assignment
being dated and witnessed by one O.
:, the officers indicated in the note print
i ed on the back Of each bond: anC
where payment is desired in the name
of any person other than the payee o1
such bonds, the assignment must be tx
the secretary OF the treasury for re
demption for account Of there inser
the name of the person in whose ia
vor redemption is desired).
i THE circular of February il, 1907
providing for the purchase Of the pc
cent bonds of the funded loan of 1907
1 at 101h fiat, is hereby rescinded."

With this rise large portion of the
city is flooded. Several newspapers
have been compelled to call upon their
contemporaries to assist in getting out
morning editions, as the press rooms

called into service to pump the water
out of Easements in an effort to save
property.
At midnight the damage done by the
flood is estimated at $10,OO00OO.
Fourteen lives in various Pennsylva-

more may be lost, as the water is

THE FARMERS M EXITING
1T GLENDE.ANE.

The farmers of Glendeane and vicinity
met last Saturday at Glerdeane and
held an all day session. Several
speeches were made, the leading one
being delivered by Mr.. Robinson, State
organizer of the A. S. of f.
He made a plain, practical talk, fnll
of good advice to the farmer, He
abused no one, used no harsh language,
and in his own simple good way, adj
vised the farmers to stand together, be
men. be conservative in all their ac-
tons, one to another, and more es-
pecially to those who were inclined to
differ with them and did not see things
as they did.
He condemned night-riding, plant
bed burning, and all unlawful actions.
He said it was not equity, and his So
ciety condemned all such action. Mr..
Robinson is a plain, honest, conscien-
tious farmer, doing his best to aid his
fellow farmer along right lines, and
along lines that will be helpful to him
self, his business and the upbuilding Of
all business. We think Mr.. Robinson
is doing a great and good work and
should have the encouragement OF all
good citizens whether they be farmers,
mercha nts, lawyers or doctors.
The meeting closed with a good
roundup of renewed faith in the A. >.
of E. The old local union was revived,
new members added, new officers elect
ed and a general revival of the order
and its members was the work OF the
day.
The officers elected were: w. X.
Norman, ST., president; K. A. Moore
vice-president; Ed Glasscock, treasurer.
District offlcers-B A. Whittinghill,
president W. R. Pierce, vice-president;
Everett Cooper, secretary.

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 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 a 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. 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
a little yellow pimple on one of her
eyes. OF course we 'phoned for doctor
No. 3. 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 1T
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 it.
We thought we would try doctor No. 5.
Well, that proved the same, only he
charged $40 more than doctor No. 4.
We were nearly discouraged. / saw
one Of the Cuticura advertisements in
the paper and thought we would try
the Cuticura Treatment, so / went and
purchased a set Of Cuticura 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. OF course it could not re-
store the eyesight, but II we had used
Cuticura in time ] am confident that
it would have saved the eye. We think
there is no remedy so good for any skin

EUGENE JOHNSON
SEEKS A DIVORCE
Proceedings to Break Mar
rage Bonds Are Begun
This Afternoon.

Divorce proceedings were begun this
afternoon by Eugene V. Johnson
against his wife. Bessie Johnson. John
son may be remembered as the former
street ear motorman on the South Chi
cago street car line who lost his po-
sition because he was seen conversing
with his wife on the front platform of
his car.
AS conversation is not permitted by
the rules of the company while a mo-
torman is on duty, Johnson was given
the preference, of apologizing to the
company or losing his job. He chose
the latter alternative and Immediately
secured other employment.
In his complaint he charges that his
Wife has treated him like a dog, con-
tinually swearing at him and once in
fit of anger she tried to strike him in
the face. She also kept alluding to the
fact that he was living in her house
and that she would only be satisfied
when she was freed from the bonds of
matrimony. Johnson declares he could
stand this treatment no longer and so
filed proceedings for a divorce.
The Johnsons are well known through
out Hammond circles and no one ever
supposed that there were any family
troubles between them. They have
meen married for three years
Johnson says that his wife told peo-
pie he stood around like a boop" and
would not work. He says he was
working all the time.

MAY CHANGE BRUSH
TO FARM LAND.
Real Estate Firm Negotiates For All
Standing Timber ia Vicinity of st.
JOhn-Hundreds OF Acres May be
Devastated of Trees.

Should the plans of the D. ]. & c.
A. Neal company of Chicago, be carried
out the woods surrounding st. John
may soon bow to the woodlands ak.
A representative of this company is
making the rounds among the farm
ers and negotigating for all the stand
ing timber which is to be cut up and
used for fuel purpose.
There are still hundreds of acres of
timber land between st. John and the
state line, some CT which have not
been visited for years.
In some places the representative is
welcomed as much of the land now
covered with trees would be more
profitable if it could be cultivated and
it is only by making a clean sweep
of the forests that the land could be
eventually used for farming purposes.
The rate at which the owners have
been clearing has been slow, they only
taking from 1t what they needed for
their immediate fuel supply

allowed by the law OF this state.
