Credit for Eczema
Cure Belongs to Hin

Whether or not DR.. ]. E. Currier is en-
titled to all the credit for discovering
that the drug citrox is practically a spe-
cific for all forms of skin diseases, 1t Is
certain that he was first to publish his
discovery in the medical journal. Other
doctors may, as they claim, have used
citrox in treating eczema, letter, salt
rheum, etc, but II they did not publish
their results and DR.. Currier did, they
cannot complain If he be given the credit
after having thrown his discovery OPEN to
the world. At the request Of a CORES
pendent we again publish the original di-
r~ections for using this well-known drug
In the treatment of skin diseases:
dissolve a teaspoonful pure powdered
citrox in two tablespoonfulls hot water
and battle the diseased skin twice a day,
20 minutes at a time, in this warm lotion.
1t must be made fresh and used warm
each time. Be careful to get the pure drug
put up in sealed packages by the chem
ical works" This new use for an old
drug has made a radical advance in the
treatment Of skin diseases, as II stops the
itching at once and dries up the eruptions
in a short time.

Connell testified he saw DR.. Rustin in
his store about 10 o'clock and Jacob F'reger,
a drug clerk in the store. said he sold DR..
Rustin 100 Il grain morphine tablets about
10 o'clock that night.
Harold Underhill, who was carrying cleo
ton returns for The Bee that night, testi-
fled he was standing in front Of the voting
booth at Fortieth and Farnam streets,
about 1880 and he say DR.. Rustin, whom
he knew, cross the intersection.
At this point an adjournment was takeu
until $50 this morning.
Suicide Theory Defense.
That DR.. Frederick Rustln committed sui
eide as the result of a sudden impulse as
he sat on his front porch that fatal morn
ing OF September 2, thinking of his wasted
and dissipated life, will be one Of the two
theories advanced by the defense at the
trial of Charles f. Davis. charged with
killing DR.. Rustin.
The other attempt of the defense will
be to point the finger of suspicion at Mrs
Abble Rice, the states principal witness
who, by her own evidence, was in a COM
pact to end DR.. Rustin's life.
1t will not be necessary for the defense
to develop either one of these theories to
a certainty, but by emphasizing the evil
dence which tends to prove the one or the
other, doubts may be raised in the minds
Of the jurors which would prevent the
conviction of Charles e. Davis as the muir,
derer. The cross-examinatlon of witnesses
at the morning session of court Wednesday
indicated this would be the course of the
defense.
One point on which it will depend is the
fact that DIR. Rustin allowed $35, 900 worth
of incontestible Insurance to lapse within
a few weeks before his death. This, the
defense will contend. shows that he die
not contemplate death for a long time, a:
Mrs. Abbie Rice t~estifles he had. The de.
Tense is also trying to show the shot was
heard about ten minutes Of 3 o'clock in.
! stead of 3:15 o'clock, as the state con,
tends. This would give Mrs. Rustin and
her husband opportunity for a half hour,
conversation before any one else arrived.
1t was along these lines that the cross
examination of Mrs. Rustin, DIR. MilIar,
Langfeld and DR.. John p. Lord was con
Quoted Wednesday morning.
County Attorney English made a stron,
Omaha daily bee., 1908-12-03

him to tell whether the wound was self
inflicted or not.
The straight course of the bullet which
was at right angles with the body he
replied. ut would be impossible for any
one to pull the trigger with the gun point
ing at himself without some upward deflec-
ton. The bullet, according to my ex-
pericnce, would have penetrated the body
and imbedded itself In the spinal column
II the revolver had been held close to his
body. II held six or eight inches from
the body the bullet would have carried
some fragments Of clothing into the
wound"
He said the vest was slightly scorched,
but not burned.
Charles Newstrom. ~janitor at the Paxton
building, testified he saw a man come
out OF DR.. Rustin's office the night before
the tragedy and saw DR.. Rustin and a
woman, presumably Mrs. Rice, go into
the. office. Newstrom said he thought the
man had a cap on. This does not CORE
spond with the description of Davis given
by other witnesses for the state. County
Attorney English brought out that at the
previous hearing Newstrom had said he
did not know whether the man had on a
cap or a hat.
John NJ. welch corroborated Mrs. Rice't
story by telling about seeing DR.. Rustir
in the Fallstaff saloon about 10 O'CLOCK
and p. b.. Myers of Myers-Dilon DruG
company testified to seeing Rustin and
Davis at sixteenth and Farnam streets a.
1910 o'clock. Davis took a West Farnan
car, he said, and afterward DR.. Rustir
spoke TO Mrs. Rice, who was standing or
the corner, and the two walked to Farnan
and Seventeenth, where they turned south
This also confirms Mrs. Rice's story.
Benjamin A. Pease, a night Waterman
said he saw a short, stockily built maj
who appeared to be sick, coming east OF
Farnam about 4:10 that morning. His de
scrlption was much the same as DR.
Lords.
What do you say as to whether tina
man resembled Charles E.. Davis or not7'
asked Mr.. English.
There was a very strong resemblance
answered the witness over the objection
Of the defense.

in Hayti created little or no surprise at
the State department. The policy of the
United States covering a long term of
years has been to proceed very slowly In
the recognition OF provisional governments
as it has always been deemed wise to wait
until 1t could be seen that such govern
ments have the support Of the people and
are able to perform all necessary govern
mental functions during a sufficient period
to give confidence in its stability. Acting
upon this precedent, It is not likely that
the United States will be in a hurry to
recognize the government Of General Legi-

young woman named Rose Bartonnc, who
passed as the wife of Bright, on the lat
ter's claim near Inlay, in the eastern part
Of this county. On July 5 Bright was
shot dead while at work in a field n mile
or more from his cabin. No witness to
the deed is known. The fact that the
tracks of Randall's saddle horse were
traced to and from the spot where the
body was found, the tracks being identified
by the horse having on but one shoe, and
from other circumstantial evidence, led to
the arrest and trial Of Randall. TIL testi-
mony showed that Bright, shortly before
the murder, had about $500, which he
carried in a small pouch attached to a cord
around his neck. Nothing was found in
this pouch after the murder, excepting a
plain gold ring. The main point made by
the defense was that the bullet found In
the body of the victim was different from
those tina were in Randalls revolver,
which was taken from the cabin soon after
the murder by the sheriff.

thousand dollars in cash was secured by
BURGERS, who early today blew open the
vault Of the First National band here. Al
though the police OF every city and town
within a radius Of 50 miles are keeping a
sharp outlook for traces of the burglars.
no clue to their identity or whereabouts
has been discovered.
so confident were the burglars that their
preliminary preparations were effective,
that they fired two charges Of nitro-glycer-
inc into the safe after they knew they had
been discovered. Then gathering the bills
together hastily, but overlooking about
1900 in gold coin, they mad cir escape,
The t-horoughness and skill " which the
work was performed has convinced the pc.
lice that the burglars were professionals
Three men were in the party, and although
they were seen escaping in an automobile
all trace of them was soon lost and the
authorities were unable to ascertain in
which direction they departed. 1t is be-
lievede, however, that the burglars went
from here to Groton.
The bank vault was blown open about 2
o'clock, at which time the last of three ex-
plosions was heard by Ernest Tarbell, who
was sleeping next door. The two earlier
detonations had aroused him, but he was
uncertain as to their origin, as the sound
was muffled. The third explosion. however,
was less guarded and was followed by a
crash and rattle as the vault door fell
away and interior glass fittings we're
broken.
Failed to Muffle Explosion.
Before beginning their work on the bank
vault the burglars took the precaution of
barring the street doors of all the buildings
in the vicinity Of the bank. The first two
explosions were so effectually muffled that
the noise was heard only a short distance
from the bank, but apparently the burglars
became excited and in preparing for the
third forgot to take precautions. Their
hurried exit shortly afterward indicated
that they were aware of their mistake.
The explosives used were conferred upon
the door Of the vault and did little damage.
The third explosion shattered the entire
front of the wall behind which the vault
was located. The counters and windows
and some other fittings of the office were
broken, but beyond this no damage wa,
caused. t

With a New Zeal.

! would recommend that we labor
with new zeal this year:
Firstly stirring up the fires OF
Endeavor wherever they require it.
For various reasons there are not
few societiess which need a new bap-
tism Of life and enthusiasm. and it
should be our special aim to study
how to poke up their embers into
blaze Of enthusiasm among the young
Secondly heaping up fresh fuel
upon the old fires in all parts of the
land. The baptism of Gods own
Spirit, the baptism of heavenly fire
should be sought for every one of our
100 societies. A new love for the
Master, a fresh passion for His word.
q mighty yearning for the salvation
of souls and an all absorbing ga gerness
to build up the local church-this is
the fuel which all our Endeavor so
cieties specially need in order that
they may carry the fire of Gods all
consuming love unto all who come in
contact with them.
Thirdly starting new Endeavor
ulcS wherever posslDit- 1ueTe arr
many places within your reach and
mine where Christian youths are lying
helpless and useless who could be con-
verted into new sources of power for
the cause of Christ and humanity by
being organized into Christian En-
deayor societies. Why should not
every society study the field around
1t and carry its message of light and
its fire Of life into neighboring Villages
and towns? Let US treble the number
Of societies this year, and thus
brighten the fame of our own lamps
by kipdling others.
And let US do this not ultimately for
the cause Of Christian Endeavor. but
for Christ and for the furtherance of
the great kingdom of Righteousness
which He has established. Let US re
member that Christian Endeavor finds
greatest prosperity when it does not
obtrusively seek its own and when II
is the eager handmade of Gods own
ehurch.-Rev. j. p. Jones. President
India C. Z. Union.
