the itch. Believe me, it is the most
terrible disease of its kind that l

body and makes your life an inferno.
Sleep is out of the question and you
feel as If million mosquitoes were
attacking you at the same time. I
knew dozen families that were SO
affected.

their remedies were of no avail what
ever. Then the families tried drug
gist who was noted far and wide for
his remarkable cures. People came
to him from all parts of the country
for treatment, but his medicine made
matters still worse, as a last resort
they were advised by friend to use
the Cuticura Remedies. l am glad to
tell you that after few days treat
ment with Cuticura Soap, Ointment
and Resolvent, the effect was wonder
full and the result was a perfect cure
in all cases.

You see, she is going to live right
here, so near us that l can run in
every day, and her sister. May, will
live just across the street and will
be running in every day, and her
grandmother lives just around the cor
ner, so she can run in every day, and
her Aunt Maria lives only four blocks
up the street, so she can run in every
day, and her Aunt Harriet lives so
near that she will probably be running
in every day, and she has half a dozen
other aunts and cousins right here in
town who will be running in at any
time; but of course it will be little
hard on poor Harry, for all of his
people live miles and miles from here,

Juneau, Alaska, Feb. 21.-Bringing
passengers and part of the crew OF
the Alaska Steamship company's
steamer Yucatan, which sank in six
fathoms of water off Chicago island
Wednesday morning after striking an

accident was injured. They told the
details of the wreck and rescue.
At $3.50 the steamer ran head or
into berg twenty-five feet long and
fifteen feet high. On account of the
thick snow storm Captain Porter and
the pilot did not see the berg until
they were upon it. The Yucatan broke
the huge mass of ice in two places

Anxious Inquirers at the Sick Mans

Washington, Feb. 21.-The condition
Of Senator Benjamin r. Tillman of
South Carolina, who lies i'll with paral-
ysis, continues extremely grave. He
,assed fairly quiet night and the
only unfavorable symptom which de-
veloped was a loss of consciousness.
No change in his condition in this re-
spect occurred with the break of day.
He was unable to recognize any one
and this increased the sorrowful bur-
den of the relatives around his bed
side.
DR.. Pickford said that the senator
had chance of recovery, but that
was about all. 1t is not believed that
there is any immediate danger of a
fatal turn. But even should he re-
cover his inability to articulate will
in all probability continue.
1t is said that he cannot completely
regain the power of speech and will
never again be able to voice his con-
victions by the vitriolic invectiye for
which he has become noted.
Henry c. and Sallie May Tillman,
son and daughter of the senator, have
reached their fathers home. They
were summoned by telegraph from
Greenwood, 8. c. The senator's wife
and eldest son, Benjamin r. Tillman,
Jr., have been with him since the in
ception of the illness.
The apartments of the popular
Southerner are besieged by inquiries

and passed a most satisfactory night.
Paralysis and aphasia unchanged.
