HOME CURe FOR ECZEMA.
Oil of Wintersreen, ThymoI, ely

1t really seems strange that so many
people suffer year in and year out with
eczema, when it is now no longer secret
that oil of wintergreen mixed with thy
mol, gycerine, etc, makes wash that is

Old, obstinate cases, it is true, cannot

lutely no sufferer from eczema who ever
used this simple wash and did not find
that wonderfully soothing,
calm, cool sensation that comes when the
itch is taken away. Instantly upon APP
plying few drops of the wash the REM
edy takes effect, the itch is allayed.
There is no need of experiment-the pa
tient knows at once.

i'll VS.. Ford Capen,
Still another trial was begun Tuesday
afternoon that of Noah Lathrop VS..
Frank &. Levarn. They own adjoining
lumber lots in the town of Bristol and
each claims that the other has been cut
ting timber on his land. The suit, while
nominally for damages. was brought pri
maiily to esta5liih the boundary lines
between the parties. The defendant in
this case, Mr.. Lavarn. is The plaintiff in
three other cases having similar purposes
in view. One is against the plaintiff in
the case at bar, one is against William
Lathrop and the third against William
Melain. Ira H. LaFleur of Middlebury,
Frank L. Fish of VeIgenDes and Rufus
S Brown Of Burlington are counsel for
Mr.. Lathrop and Davis & Russell repre-
sent Mr. Lavarn.
On account of the absence of Mr.. La
Fleur no progress WAS made with the
case Tuesday afternoon beyond securing
a jury, which took up an hour, one talesx
man being excused for cause and eighS
going down on challenges. AT o'clock
recess was taken to 9 o'clock Wednes-
day morning.
The land case occupied the attention of
the courl all OF Wednesday and Thursday
and the testimony of surveyors took up
much of the time. The case will I'M
douhiedly last the week out.
An unusual incident occurred Wednes-
day in connection with this case. Clark
j. Snt den Of Watham was one of the
jurors empaneled to Try 1t Tuesday after
noon. He failed to show up in the
morning and after waiting nearly half an
hour the court, upon an agreement of
counsel substituted Juryman Rowland
T. Robinson of FeIrisburgh in his place.
just as MIR. Robinson was about to take
his seat in the box, Juryman Sneden
came i'll ready for business, but he was
left out and the court directed Mr.. Rob-
inson to take the vacant seat. Had the
taking of testimony been begun this
could not have been done. Either the
court would have had TO wait for the
tardv juror or an entire new panel would
have had to be called. Lawyer LaFleur
took his seat with the plaintiffs counsel
Wednesday afternoon.

THREE HUNDRED KILLED
Moving Picture Apparatus Starts a
Fire In a Mexican Theatre


Mexico City, Feb. l6!-Between
$50 and 800 people were burned TO
death and many were injured in a
fire which destroyed the Flores
Theatre in the city of Acapulco.
The Flores Theatre was a wooden
structure, and over 1000 people
crowded into it to witness a special
performance. One of the numbers of
the program consisted of a series Of
moving pictures. While the operator
was exhibiting these, film caught
fire. In an incredibly short time the
flames spread to all parts of the struc-
ture. There were but three narrow
exits and the panic stricken audience
rushed to them, many falling TO be
crushed to death, their bodies chok-
ing the way to escape to others.
The screams of those imprisoned
were terrifying Owing to the ra-
puidity with which the fire spread and
the intense heat, it was impossible to
attempt rescue work and those i'm
prisoned were literally roasted alive,
as the fire burned with little smoke
and few were suffocated.
The telegraph Office, postoffice and
custom house were burned, but all OF
the government records, and registered
mail were saved.

Mexico City, Feb. 17.-Late dis
patches from Acapulco, where the
Flores Theatre was burned while the
structure was crowded at gala per-
Torrance given in honor of Governor
Flores of the state of Guersero,
bring varying estimates of the loss of
life in the fire. They agree in detail,
however, that the dead will exceed
200, whine some place the figure as
high as $50.
Most of the dead were charred
and burned beyond recognition, so
that an accurate list Of the dead may
never be secured. Acapulco is dared
at the disaster. Many of the business
shops are closed and many of the peo-
pie crowding the churches, where
masses are being celebrated for the
dead.
The fire. which spread with incred-
ible rapidity through the immense
wooden and adobe structure, was due
to the carelessness and ineXperience of
the operator OF the moving picture
machine. There was an explosion, a
burst of flame. which communicated
to the bunting used for decorative pur-
poses, and in few minutes the entire
structure was a mass OF fire.
The flames started practically over
the main entrance The exits were
all in the front part of the building,

The people in a frenzied panic tried

children suffered most, comprising a
majority of the dead.
The search of the ruins has thus far
revealed no recognizable human
forms. Charred bodies from which
legs and arms have been burned
have been taken from the ruins, and
as there was no chance of identifying
these remains all have been buried in
a common trench by the municipal au-
thorities.
The greatest loss of life was occa-
stoned, according to survivors, by the
fall of the roof, which crashed down
on the entrapped people in what
seemed a short time after the blaze
was discovered.
Previous to this the men in the pit
had fought like demons, striking dowr

OBITUARY

After a protracted illness of three
weeks the infant daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. August johnson of Taylor died
Sunday. September IL, 1909. Every
thing that loving hearts and hands
could do was done to alleviate the
suffering of the little one and bring her
back to health and restore her to loved
ones but it was the will of the Heavenly
father to take the precious one to HIM
self. A sweet bud pucked from earth to
blossom In Heaven. God gave her to
cheer the hearts. Of father and mother,
brothers and sisters for q few short days
and then took her to himself to draw
them heavenward, Nay the blessing of
him who doeth all things WE'LL" rest
upon the bereaved family and finally
reunite with the loved M gone before
where pain and sorrow never come.
Florence Lillian Marion johnson,
born August 5th 1907 died September
18th 1909.
Florence thou art gone to Heaven
Where no pain can ever come
And we soon will come to meet you
Live with you in that best home.
There is no death-An angel form
Walks Ger the earth. with silent tread ;
He bears our best beloved things away ;
And then we call them dead" !,
Where'er he sees a smile too bright,
Or heart too pure for faint and vice,
He bears it to that world of light,
To dYell'in Paradise.
