" From the age
fifteen years old,


him to doctor and tried half a dozen
other treatments, all with the same
result: no Improvement at all. The
disease gradually spread until nearly
every part of his body was quite raw.
We had to strap him down i'm bed. for
he used to tear himself dreadfully in
his sleep. The agony he went through
is quite beyond words. No one thought
we would rear him. The regimental
doctor, very clever man, pronounced
the case hopeless; at least, he said the
only, hope was that he might, if he
lived long enough. outgrow it to some
extent. We had him in hospitals four
times and he was pronounced one Of
the worst cases. if not the worst ever
admitted. From each he was dis
charged as incurable; in fact he got
worse under the successive treatments.
AT one hospital they incased him in
plaster, and this seemed to aggravate
the soreness terribly. He looked so
badly that no one liked to go near him
and his life was a burden to him. We
kept trying remedy after remedy, but
we had got almost past hoping for a
cure. Six months ago we purchased
a set OF Cuticura Soap, Ointment, and
Resoivent Pills and persevered with
them. The result was truly marvellous
ana to-day he is perfectly cured, his skin
not having a blemish on it anywhere.

Spokane Thugs Find New Game.

Spokane, Jan. 23.-Holdup men
have created a new record for rapa-
city in this city. Hitherto coin of
the realm, watches and rings, either
solid or filled, and game that would
pass the casual inspection and not
too rigid examination of the hurried
road agent, about encompassed the
horizon of the highwayman's loot.
But since Spokane became a closed
town and the money stringency hit
the tenderloin with cruel relentless
ness, the ''stickup" men have been
searching for new fields for the elus-
i've wherewithal.
Last night three holdup men stop

him for valuables. They found only
$3.50, whereupon Mr.. Hedger laugh

the laugh revealed that Hedger's
mouth cleaned and glittered from
the reflection of three gold encrusted
teeth.
Before Hedger was able to resist
he was thrown down and the gold
teeth, valued at SIS, were yanked
from his mouth.

PUEBLO BRIDGE COMPANY
ATTEMPTS CHEAP WORK

The boards Of commissioners Of
Fremont and Teller county who are
jointly building the steel bridge on
Four Mile creek. the dividing line
OF the two counties. are having
trouble with the Pueblo Bridge COM
pany to whom the contract was
awarded for the construction of the
bridge. The contract was for $735
and with Ger ain specifications As to
length, height and the kind Of
foundation on which the bridge
should be built.
1t Is claimed that the company is
not living up to its contract and al
result work on the structure has
been suspended pending the sattie.
ment Of the controversy. The Teller
county commissioners. in making
a tour Of the public roads, found
that the bridge company Vas not
with the specifications as
to height Of the bridge and was not
using proper abutments as per con.
tract. Iustead of building on stone
abutments they had built the ends
of the bridge into the side of the
banks.
The commissioners ordered the
work to stop and demanded that the
contract should be carried out in de.
tail. Whiis the matter is being ad-
justed the work on the bridge has
been suspended and it will now be
some time before it is completed.
The contract states that the bridge
must be built by June l5.
This is the bridge over which
Henry Fox and the county commits
sioners had n tilt recently. Mr..
Fox claimed that the contract was
awarded 10 the Pueblo concern at
higher figure than the one he fled
