the middle of his sketch at the Ma
jestic Music hall. He finished the
act without permitting the audience
or those on the stage to become aware
of his condition. Kusell, who with his
wife, known as Este1le Werdette. was
giving a comedy sketch in which he
sings several songs was seen to reel
slightly and pass his hand across his
eyes just before the climax of the
sketch.
Responding to a burst of applause
at the end OF the song he, turned his
sightless eyes toward his wife and
bowed through several curtain calls,
laughingly thanking the audience
The instant the curtain fell for the
last time Kusell staggered toward the
wings and was carried to his dressing
room by friends. Three doctors spent
the night administering to Kuse1l in
the hope of saving his sight. They
|-said there was little hope that he
would ever see again.

WHO IS THE DEAD MAN?
Much Uncertainty Regarding Identity
of. One Said to Be Schlatter.

Hastings. Neb., Oct. 22-Denver will
be called upon to identify Francis
Schlatter, who died here Thursday
morning as the divine healer who Is
years ago, made that city the Mecca of
the halt and the blind. A f1ashlight
picture of the body of the supposed
divine healer was taken in the local
morgue and sent to Denver. A careful
examination of the dead mans effects
seems to bear out the statements
Schlatter made before his death.
To DR.. E. A. Weir. city physician,
Schlatter protested that he was the
original divine healer. Apparently he
expected to die for several hours before
death. He told the physician in case if
he should not recover to notify David
McNaughton, Monroe street and Michi-
gan avenue, Chicago, dear friend. A
telegram has been sent to Mr.. Nc
Naughton. J. w. Wallace. a grocer,
who was in Denver at the time Schlat-
ter was drawing thousands by his
cures, has viewed the body and says
this is the same man.

with his daughter went to Denver tt

BOYS BLOWN TO ATOMS
They Were Playing Miner and an tx

San Jose, Cal, Oct. 22.-Three boys,
whose ages ranged from to 10 years,
were blown to atoms last night by the
explosion of 500 giant powder caps.
The boys, whose fathers work for a
mining company here, were playing
miner, and had crawled through a
crack of masonry of the mine left by
the earthquake of 1905, taken the
caps outside and begun to lamp one
of them into a hole in a boulder.
The resulting explosion was heard
for miles and the mine employees, fear
ing the magazine might go next, dared
not approach for some time

why Salves Eail While Simple
LIQUID Has Accomplished Thou
sands of Cures.
II is now thoroughly established
among the best medical authorities
that eczema is purely a skin disease,
due to a germ, and durable only
through the skin. 1t is not blood
disease at all; in fact, thousands of
people suffer with skin disease and
are perfectly healthy otherwise, and
thereby prove they have no diseased
blood.
Smeary salves cannot reach the
germs because they do not penetrate
the skin. The only way to reach the
germs is by means of a penetrating
liquid.
Such a liquid can be obtained by
simply mixing ordinary oil of win
tergreen with thymol, glycerine and
other healing agents. This compound
known as d. d. d. Prescription, stops
the itch instantly-and the cures all
appear to be permanent. In fact, It
took thousands of cures, case after
case, before the best scientific au-
thorities were convinced of the abb
solute merit of this remedy. d. d.
d. Prescription kills the germs in
the itching skin. Its effect is seen
within one minute after the first ap-
plication. We especially recommend
/ d. ID. Soap in connection with the
| treatment.

FROM THE WORLD OF
FASHION.
Spring Millinery; Quantities of Flow
ers; Bows on the Back of Hats;
Bridal Trosseau; summer
Irocks.

Wherever two or three women
chance to meet nowadays the all abb
sorblng topic is millinery. There has
been such very decided change
in the shape of the hats this year
that IL is extremely difficult at first
to accept the new models without n
great deal OF hesitation and prolimi-
nary looking around
The Spring hats are very heavy
looking but In reality the materials
are light Large turbans, mush-
room shapes. bowl shapes and a
large variety OF curious models and
shapes OF which beggar description.
but the two things most noticeable
In the new milliery are the pose OF
the hat upon the head and the COM
pllcated and topheavy character
OF the crowns. Every hat is worn
low upon the head and whatever
It's shape the crown Is inyerlbly ex-
tremcly wide, 30 that a woman with
a small head one OF these models
appears not unlike a snuffer on can
die.
Roses, Tulips and Wisteria.
There never was quite such SER
son for artificial flowers. American
Beauty and June roses are the most
popular blossoms and then come tu-
lips, poppies, wisteriGa, sweet peas
with, OF course, the perennial violet
aud a quantity OF fine flowers such as
forget-mo-nots. hellotropo, etc.
Fruit OF all sorts Is also a favored
decVatlon. Many OF the hats look
like inverted salad bowls with per-
haps bunch Of mixed fruits. most
often grapes and cherries on one side,
"a narrow velvet ribbon OF some bright
color tied around it and the whole
finished on with a bow In the back.
4 Linen season.
To anyone In touch with the ,renl Z
of present fashions q is evident
that the Summer Of 1903 will Guido
