NO HEALTHY SKIN LEFT

MY little son, boy Of five, broke
out with an itching rash. Three doc
tors prescribed for him, but he kept
getting worse until we could not dress
him any more. They finally advised
me to try a certain medical college,
but its treatment did no good. At
the time | was induced to try CUT
cura he was so bad that had to cut
his hair off and put the Cuticura Oint-
ment on him on bandages, as 1t was
Impossible to touch him with the bare
hand. There was not one square inch
of skin on his whole body that was
not affected He was one mass of
sores. The bandages used to stick To
his skin and in removing them IL used
TO take the skin of with them, and
the screams from the poor child were
heartbreaking. ! began to think that
he would never get well, but after the
second application of Cuticura Oint-
ment l began to see signs of improve
ment, and with the third and fourth
applications the sores commenced TO
dry up His skin peeled of twenty
times, but IT finally yielded to the
treatment Now can say that he Is
entirely cured. and a stronger and
healthier boy you never saw than he
is to-day, twelve years or more since
the cure was effected. Robert Wattam

MANY DIE IN WRECK
ROCK ISLAND TRAIN GOES
THROUGH OPEN BRIDGE
INTO RAGING WATERS.
SIXTEEN KNOWN TO BE DEAD
Feared Others Been Washed Away
Heavy Rainfall Causes Small
Creek to Become Seething Torrent
Disaster Near Clayton, Kan.

Clayton, Kan.-A terrible disaster
took place on the Rock Island rail-
road two miles east of here Friday,
when fast train plunged through an
open bridge and into 20 feet of water.
Sixteen persons were killed and IL
injured. Most of the victims were oc-
cupants of the smoking car, which
was telescoped by the car following
it.
The stream which wrought the de-
struction is at ordinary times simply
a dry arroyo, with no water, but with
its banks 80 feet below the level of
the railroad bridge. A tremendous
rain had fallen during the night and
the ordinarily dry bed was soon filled
to the brim with wild torrent. The
bridge itself was quickly broken up
and carried away.
Shortly after one o'clock in the
morning, while the storm yet ragged,
the fast Rock Island passenger train
from Kansas City to Denver, travel
ing at forty mile per hour speed,
rushed headlong into the gap and the
forward end of the train took the
plunge into the water filed ravine.
The locomotive. tender and baggage
car disappeared entirely under the wa
ter, and the engineer, fireman, bag
gageman and conductor were all in
stantly killed.
The smoker, which stopped on the
brink of the stream, was telescoped
by a chair car and many of the pas
sengers killed outright. Others were
thrown into the stream and drowned.
With the exception of the last Pull
man the entire train left the track
and the cars and coaches were piled
in one big heap or rolled into the
ditch alongside the rails.
The uninjured passengers made
their way to the brink of the stream
and rendered what assistance they
could, working by the light of the few
lanterns which could be found.
Other passengers as we'll as train
men walked to Clayton in the search
for help From this place the news
was telegraphed to headquarters and
relief trains were started from Belle
Vile and Phillipsburg. Citizens of
Clayton in wagons drove hastily to
the scene of the wreck and, aided by
bonf1res which they lighted, worked
In the storm amid the debris in the
search for the dead and injured.
The little stream lost it's water as
rapidly as 1t had found it, and soon
the ravine was practically dry. Down
stream for half a mile the dead and
injured were found and removed to
the improvised hospitals. Nine of
these dead were identified by letters
and otherwise. Seven are without
Identification marks.

DAY OF PORK BARREL OVER
President Taft at Cincinnati Declares
for New Policy in River I'M
provements.

Cincinnati.-Doom for the pork
barrel and a new policy of waterway
improvement, under which congress
would authorize prompt completion of
a project when once undertaken, to
the end that river transportation may
prove a strong factor in reducing
rail rates. were advocated here at the
Ohio Valley exposition by President
Taft
The president said that the country
is reused against corrupt control OF
legislative agencies, but that selfish
combinations of the representatives of
the majority are equally dangerous.
We have reached a new epoch in
the matter of improvement of our wa
aroused by the confident and just be-
lief that by more symmetrical. rea-
sonable and prompt expenditure OF
money upon approved projects. rates
for transportation may be lowered,
and the business of the country en-
tirely benefited.
AS country, we are all in favor of
the most effective and economical ex-
penditure for the development of our
waterways. but as members of a dis
trict, and as representative of dis
tricts, we are selfishly insistent upon
our shares of public appropriations
each year, however much that division
OF the spoil impedes the adoption OF
the effective and economical improve
ment of our water TRANSFORMATION.
The evil in the corrupt control of
congress or legislature by private In
terests is manifest and always called
for condemnation. But there is an
other kind of legislative abuse as dan
gerous to public veal in certain of its
aspects as corruption. and that is the
selfish combination OF the constitu-
ences to expend the money of the gov
eminent for the temporary benefit of a
part or with little benefit to the whole.
1t is the duty of the majority and
the minority to legislate always for
the benefit OF the whole people, and
any enactments that look to the selfish
at the expense of the whole, and with
out benefit to the whole. is a species
of legislative abuse that comes very
near corruption in its effects, and is
perhaps more dangerous than corrup-
ton, because those who support such
a combination are generally bold in
its defense.

tered Packages as Train
Crosses Mississippi.

New Orleans.-Two masked white
men held up four United States mail
clerks on the Southern Pacific train
at Avondale crossing of the Missis-
sippi river and got away with a num-
Der of packages of registered mail.
How much was in the packages is
not known, but there are reports that
they contained large sums. 1t is said,
in addition, that there were probably
in the same car several packages of
gold bullion shipped from the New
Orleans mint-and lot of silver coins.
No definite figures as to the amounts
of the money have been obtained,
but report has it that the value of
the theft is in excess of $50, 900 in
gold and silver alole.
The whole thing was over, the mail
men say, in few minutes, and the
robbers leaped off the cars and made
for the river bank. They bound the
clerks before they jumped so they did
not tell of the crime until discovereT,
when the train had got to Wagga
mon station.

of Jefferson parish and is securing

the southern soldiers and that the
Union veterans now realize that no
men ever made greater sacrifices for
what they believed to be right than
their former foes, the commander was
applauded.
While the roll of the Grand Army
is steadily shortening, the commander
in-chief urged that every effort be
made to keep the organization up to
it's fullest possible strength. He
quoted the figures showing that G. A
R. at the beginning of the present
year had still 213,901 members in
good standing, as against 100000 at
the beginning of 1909 The loss dur
ing the year was 6,7S1, of which 5,323
was by death
Commander-in-Chief Van SAINT had
commentator for the work of all the

work being done by the Woman's Re-
lief corps, Ladies of the G. A. R., Sons

ans.

PINCHOT FOR FEDERAL MOVE
Saws Government Should Seek to Re-
claim Mineral Lands WrongfuIly
Held by Southern Pecific.

Los Angeles.-Gifford Pinchot, for
mer chief forester of the United
States, threw a bomb into the Ameri-
can mining congress, when he SUBJ
nitted a report of his investigations
in the California oil fields, in which
he strongly urged the United States
government to retake the mineral
lands in the oil fields which were
granted years ago to the Southern
Pacific railways. These holdings of
the Hartman railroads have been es-
timated by some to be worth more
than the entire Hartman railroad
system itself.
1.-The government will not do its
duty" said Mr.. Pinchot, IF it does
not exhaust every possible means in
its command to attack the title of
the Southern Pacific railway, to min
eral lands in the California oil fields
and to vest title again in the people
Of the United States"

lDENT TAFT STANDS
PAT.
BELIEVES HIS SUBORDINATE
Proposes to SHOW, Say His Friends,
That No Conspiracy to Hound Man
From Office Can Succeed. Be.
lieves He Is an Honest Official.

Wellington Secretary Ballinger,s
resignation was not presented at the
first full cabinet meeting. What is
more to the point, no resignation
from the secretary is expected. FL
nally, If the secretary did hand in his
resignation based on the issues Of
the Ballinger-Pinchot controversy.
President Taft would promptly refuse
to accept it.
The president stands fatty with his
secretary of the interior. He be-
lieves that Mr.. Ballinger has been
maligned and prosecuted by a COM
bination that closely resembles a con-
spiracy; and If the view OF. the presi-
dent is correctly interpreted by his
friends, Mr.. Taft proposes to show
in this matter that it is not possible
to hound an honest official from pub
lie office through a conspiracy de-
liberately formed for that purpose.
There is reason to believe that Mr..
Ballinger informed the president that
his resignation was ready whenever
his chief demanded it and was
promptly advised by the president to
the above effect. No one realizes
pelteI imam the pIeSIueul lnaI DI
reason of the Piuchot controversy the
confidence of a large section of the
people in Mr.. Ballinger has been shat
tered. On the other hand the presi-
dent believes that there is a prin-
ciple at stake and is therefore ready
to stand or fall by his secretary OF
the interior.
So far the president has remained
quiet, but it is not at all certain that
he will not have something to say
publicly in the near future touching
upon the whole Ballinger-Pinchot
row. 1t may come when the majority
report of the Ballinger-Pinchot in
vestigation committee is made public.
Certainly until that report is filed
Mr.. Ballinger will remain in office

FIND NEW BRIDE EVIDENCE
Charles Luke, Now Dead, Is Said to
Have Confessed to Getting
$1,000 for Vote.

Springfield, Ill.-State's Attorney
Burke of Sangamon county has OBJ
tanned information that another mem
Der of the Illinois legislature received
81 900 for voting for William Lorimer
for senator.
The man who made this admission
of receiving cash for his vote was
Charles S. Luke of Nashville, who
represented the Forty-fourth district
in the house, and who has since died.
Mr.. Burke obtained the knowledge of
Luke's admission some time ago, but
it could not be used as evidence in
any pending criminal case.
1t is pertinent, however, to the
broader matter of Lorimer's election
now under investigation by the sena-
torial committee in Chicago, and may
be used in that inquiry.
The admission was made by Luke,
according to one of Mr.. Burke's staff
familiar with the matter, to Hugh V.
Murray of Carlyle. now states attor-
ney of Clinton county.
The date of the conversation in
which Luke made the confession was
August Is, 1909, months prior to the
publication of the White confession
and the corroborative confessions Of
Beckemeyer, Link and Holstlaw. Luke
is said to have told Murray:
81 got 81 900 for my vote for Lori
mer. and Beckemeyer was fool II he
didn't get the same"
Luke was one of those present in
the Southern hotel bathroom in st.
Louis, and his widow gave testimony
before the Cook county grand jury
that seemed to indicate that he had
not been overlooked in the Jackpot"
distribution.

Upton. Ind-in collision on the
Indiana Union Traction road two
miles north of this city Saturday six
persons were killed and IL others
more or less seriously injured.
This was the second disaster on In.
diana traction lines within week, the
first having occurred on the Wabash
Valley line at Kingsland on Wednes-
day.
In both cases there was a mistake
in orders-one of the trains overran
the station at which 1t was to stop
and met the other on a sharp curve
In a head-on collision.

DR.. w. c. Holthouser, who was killed
in the wreck, was on his way to Ko-
komo, Ind, where he was to have been
married. His brother, who also was
killed, was to have been the best man
at the wedding The bride to have
been is Miss Nellie Coxon, daughter of
the secretary Of the Great Western
Pottery company of Kokomo.
The collision was between north
bound limited passenger train and a
south-Sound freight. The south-bound
motorman had orders to wait at the
first stop north of the crossing, 1t Is
said, but overran that point. thinking
he could make another switch.
A clump of trees hid the approach
ing cars and they came together at a
curve. The freight train plowed
through the front of the limited, de-
molishing the smoker. The motor
man and all the passengers in the
smoking compartment of the limited
were killed. The motorman and con-
ductor on the freight car jumped and
were not injured.
II guess we overran the orders"
said Motorman Dan Lacy, when he
had fully recovered from the shock
caused by jumping from his car. Con-
ductor Sebree was equally daZed at
the occurrence and could not explain
why it was they had passed the switch.
