"My brother had eczema three different

and he said his suffering was terrible.
When 1t came on the third summer, he
bought a box Of Cuticura Ointment and
gave it a faithful trial. Soon he began to
feel better and he cured himself entirely
of eczema with Cuticura. A lady in In

Miller, had cured her little son of terrible
eczema by the Cuticura Remedies. This

TAFT CONFERS
WITH FORAKER
BURY THE HATCHET AND
WILL WORK TOGETHER
Thousands Witness Meeting of Big
Chiefs and Cheer When They Shake
Hands-BOth Make Addresses at
Reunion of Veterans.

Toledo, Ohio, Sept. 2.-That TAN
and Foraker are politically together
is not only the public admission OF
both Taft and Foraker here today
but also the political sentiment Of
Ohio <
Senator Foraker is an avowed can
didate for United States senator to
succeed himself and his services In
the national campaign have been
sought by Chairman Hitchcock and
the senator has promised to take the
stump.
At a dinner given here last night
by Charles T. Lewis, who is inciden-
tally the host of Judge Taft at the
Middle Bass Island club, being presi-
dent Of that organization, there were
present Senator Foraker. General
Henry Corbin, Representative J.
Warren Keifer of Ohio, and James
Hoyt an attorney of Cleveland This
dinner resulted in an invitation to
Seator Foraker TO attend both the re-
view of the parade of the G. A. r., in
the stand with Judge Taft, and 'recep-
tion to be given later by the Lincoln
republican club.
Those who attended this dinner are
authority for the further statement
that when Senator Foraker left the
dinner he was called on the long dis
tance telephone from Chicago by
Chairman Hitchcock of the national
committee and requested to open the
republican campaign in Kansas. Sem
ator Foraker has not yet given his
answer to this invitation, but, it Is
said, told the national chairman that
he would take part in the speaking
program for the contest.
Judge Taft left Middle Bass Island
at half past six o'clock this morning
on a small power yacht and after a
tempestuous voyage of four hours
reached Toledo, very damp from the
spray, but otherwise unimpaired. He
was taken in an automobile direct to
the reviewing stand Judge Taft said
on the journey that he did not know
Of any arrangement whereby he was
to meet Senator Foraker, nor did he
know of any endeavors to effect such
an arrangement. But the city of To-
ledo seemed to know all about it, and
when after the candidate had been in
his place only few minutes, a car
riage which headed the parade, stop
ped in front Of the stand and dis
charged its passengers, there was q
tremendous shout as the thousands
who were within sight of the stand
in the immense stands adjoining and
across the street caught sight of the
senior senator and his colleague, Sem
ator Dick, Governor Harris and Mayor
Whitlock.
Senator Foraker was the last Of
the little party to reach Judge Taft's
side but when he did and each raised
high his right hand, Taft saying,
Hello, Senator" and Foraker "I am
glad to see you, Judge" and then
shook hands long and heartily and
smiled cordially, there was a mighty
shout from the crowd, and then
cheers. The two sat down together
and remained in earnest conversation
for more than an hour, incidentally
together receiving the plaudits of the
veterans. Senator Foraker
left to keep a business engagement,

One of the most dastardly crimes
this town has ever suffered was COM
mitted last night when the Alta
House and stable were maliciously
set afire by an unknown wretch. BY
his act he imperiled the lives of a
score Of people within the hotel
burned eight horses to death and
brought financial ruin to sam Bitner
owner. of the property.
The fire was started about 1880
last night and the best witness to the
circumstances surrounding the origin
Is Pete Shafer, young man who was
sitting with Miss Town on the front
porch OF the Johnnie Town home al
the time.
Fircbug Was Seen.
According to Shafer, he and Miss
Town saw man come stealthily
GOWN lht SlTttt lioul tiN Siut VI N'S
Alta house just u moment before the
fire was seen. The fellow tip-toed
until almost in front of the young
people, whom he did not see, and he
then broke into a run. on reaching
Webb street he turned towards the
business section, still running.
In the opinion Of young Shafer'
there is no doubt but that the fellow,
whoever he Is, started the fire. No
sooner had he gotten past the Town
house nutll the flames broke forth
at the Alta House and Shafer DASH
ed over to the place. Taking a hasty
glance at the fire he then sped
around the block to the local fire
house and rang the small bell. BY
that time the flames hadogotten un-
der strong headway.
According to Shafer's description
,tne man Ht saw Iulllihb il'ih Wv
spot was small In stature and he
either wore light Nlored coat or
else he had on light colored shirt
without a coat.
Boy Heard Match.
Further evidence to the effect that
the fire was OF incendiary origin Is
furnished by Frank Fowler dish
washer at the Alta House, who ROOM
ed in the corner of the house nearest
which the fire was started Accord
ing to Fowler he heard a man enter
the shed between the hotel and sta

late he saw the light of the fire and
he rushed through the house out on

Feared for Son.

a pathetic incident of the big fire
was the mental suffering of a man
named Owenby, who with his little
son were sleeping in the barn when
the fire started. Both escaped from
the burning structure, but the father
lost track of the boy and could not
find him for some time He feared
he had been caught in the burning
pile and was in anguish until the
lad was found, The boy, who had
escaped minus his trousers, was cared
for by neighbors and was unharmed.
A four year old child, apparently
left alone, was taken from the Sec
ond story OF the Alta house by one
of the Knight boys who heard the
child crying.
