FREED FROM SKIN DISEASE

Our boy was born in Toronto on
Oct. Is, 1908, and when three months
old a slight rash appeared on his
cheek. What appeared to be a wa
ter blister would form. When it
broke, matter would run out, starting
new blisters until his entire face,
head and shoulders were a mass OF
scabs and you could not see a par3N
ticle of clear skin. Other parts Of
his body were affected, but not to
such an extent. We tried about every
advertised remedy without avail, In
deed some of them only added to his
suffering and one in particular, the
- Remedy, almost put the infant
into commissions. The family doctor
prescribed for him and told us to
bathe the baby in buttermilk. This
did not do any good, so we took him
to hospital. He was treated as an
out-patient twice a week and he got
worse, If anything. We then called
in another doctor and inside OF a
week the boy was, to all appearances,
cured and the doctor said his work
was done. But the very next day it
broke out as bad as ever.
'We decided that it could not be
cured and must run its course and so

flesh. We left Toronto and shortly
after our arrival in Duluth, the Cuti-

by Governor Harmon. The Crawford
trading stamp bill, for the alleged so
liciting of a bribe in connection with
which Senator Crawford was indicted,

He vetoed the Crawford bill as be-

every citizen to dispose of his prop
erty on his own terms" the present
law going far enough, in his opinion,
in requiring the plain statement on
the stamps of the obligation assumed.
He also objected to the bills exempt

redeemable in their own goods, while
it did not give merchants the same
exemption.

BLAST WAS TERRIFIC
EXPLOSION is FAR GREATER
THAN WAS SUPPOSED.
Twisted Masses of steel Revealed as
Water Is Lowered May Inter-
fere With Removal of Hulk.

Havana-That the shattering OF
the hull of the battleship Maine,
expressed by the mute testimony of
steel ribs bent apart, decks upheaVed
and hurled far from their original po-
sition, bulkheads crumpied like sheets
of paper and apparently inextricable
and hardly identifiable masses of con-
struction material, is evidently far
greater than supposed, was revealed
as a result of a superficial observation
made possible by the lowering of the
water level in the cofferdam a total of
seven feet.
On account of this unforeseen reve-
lation all plans heretofore proposed for
dealing with the ultimate removal Of
the hulk have become merely conjec-
tural until a considerably greater
amount of water has been pumped
out.
Colonel Black of the engineer
corps, said that he had reason
able expectation of lowering the water
q total depth of eighteen or twenty
feet within three or four days, which
would make possible a fairly complete
exploration of all portions of the ship,
except the bow, where men were like
ly to have been on the night of the
disaster.
1t is probable the searchers may
be able to enter the officers quarters
in the after structure in a day or
two, where they may find the body of
Ensign Merritt, the only officer miss
ing, the body Of Lieutenant Jenkins,
the only other officer killed, having
been recovered from the torpedo
chamber shortly after the explosion.

$4,000 AnnvaI Income.

An income of $4,000 annually was
assured the Andrews institute for
girls at Willoughby, Lake county,
when Governor Harmon, as a member
of the board of trustees, approved the
plan to convert claims of the Wallace
Andrews estate against the New York
Steam company, aggregating nearly
S3,000,000, willed to the institute by
legacy, into $2,SOO,OOO first mortgage
bonds bearing 4 per cent interest.
The plan was presented to the Gov
ernor by Congressman Paul Rowland
and Virgil P. Kline of Cleveland and
county treasurer John Warren of Lake
county and Mayor s. S. Wilson Of Will
loughby, who are also trustees of the
institute fund under the Andrews leg
acy.

Full Value on Personal.

Columbus Emphasizing the state
ment that real estate has been placed
on the tax duplicate at its true value
in money and that public utilities and
bank shares, yet to be passed on, will
be assessed the same way, the state
tax commission issued a letter to
country boards of equalization and
city boards of review, insisting that
personal property be dealt with in
like manner and stating that officials
who do not care to do their full duty
in this direction should resign and
permit others to take their offices.
The statement AYERS that county
auditors will assess bank stock at it's
true value in money and that the tax
commission itself will see that public
utilities are assessed on the same
basis.
Many individuals, copartnerships
and associations have voluntarily
made full, honest returns to the per-
sonal property assessors, but there
are others who have made insufficient
returns or none at all, as in the past.
Such conduct, while always reprehen-
sible, is peculiarly SO at this time and
is evidence of such bad citizenship,
not to characterize it more harshly, as
entities such persons to no leniency
whatever at the hands of your board"
says the commissions letter. Contin-
uing, the letter reads
I'm former years, when other classes
OF property were assessed at a per
centage of the true value, such boards
as yours may have been justified in
equalizing personal property in the
same way, but such conditions nc
longer exist and, if personal property,
through the fault of anyone, is as.
sessed below its true value, an unjust
burden is thereby imposed upon the
owners of real estate. bank stock and
public utilities, which they should not
bear, and of these the small home
owners and farmers will be the great
est sufferers.
ut may be said that if county and
CITY boards of equalization and re-
view will do their duty fearlessly,
fairly and intelligently, substantially
all of the taxable property in the state
will be fairly placed on the tax dupli-
cate and, if this is done, sufficient rev.
enue can be raised under the l per
cent maximum tax rate act to meet
all the requirements of every taxing
district, when its affairs are econom.
ically administered"

ALL At TRIAL WEEP
DRAMATIC INCIDENTS DEVELOP
AT TRIAL OF EDGAR s.
COOKE OF CINCINNATI.
MRS. FORD is ON THE STAND
Advent of Witness Little Girl In
Court, Her Confession That Ac-
cuscd Man Is chlId's illegal Father,
Breaks Her Spirit.

misunderstanding the trial of Ed
gar S. Cooke, charged with embezzling
$4,000 from the Big Four railroad,
two dramatic incidents occurred, one
of which brought tears to the eyes of
judge, jury, attorneys and spectators,
the other arousing their curiosity to a
marked degree.
Mrs. jeanette Stewart-Ford, on the
stand for cross-examination, and Mrs.
Edgar S. Cooke, wife of the defend
ant, figured in the first incident. When
the matronly-looking woman who has
stood by Cooke through all his trou-
bles took seat at his side there was
a murmur of expectancy, intensified
when Mrs. Ford's invalid chair was
wheeled in front of the jury.
1t was the first time in years that
the eternal triangle" had been COM
pleted in Cookies case, but all con-
cerned kept their impulses under con-
troll and there was no indication on
the wtfe's countenance that she felt
anything but pity for Mrs. Ford.
The second stirring scene was pre-
ceded by the entrance of Mrs. Ford's
daughter, aged six. The child ran to
her mother just as the latter said:
There is my daughter, Jeanette,
and she is Cookies ckild."
The witness burst into sobs as she
made this confession and tears
streamed down the faces of jurymen
and spectators. Even the attorney for
the prosecution and the Judge on the
bench, Injured to scenes of suffering,
showed their feelings.
The child's entrance was preceded
by the introduction of letter from
Mrs. Ford to Cooke in which she
asked him to visit her at the hospital
or at least to send her some money.
and to provide for their daughter. So
shaken was Mrs. Ford by the incident
that she was removed from the room
and after an interval her physician
told the court that she could not stand
the ordeal of further examination.
Cross-examination of the woman
was merciless throughout. Under the
fire of questions she admitted having
shot and wounded Cooke and of hav.
ing had him arrested in Chicago.
Attorney Charles w. Baker, for the
defense, led Mrs. Ford back to her
earlier career and the name of Frank
Comstock, who preceded Warmer as
local treasurer of the Big Four. again
was brought into the trial.
Who told you Comstock was short?"
asked Baker.
Cooke told me-"
Isn't it true that you and Com
rtock went on two weeks spree and
that while on 1t he told you of his
shortage?"
Maybe he did"
The attorney tried to gain an ad-
mission that the safety deposit boxes
which Mrs. Ford said she had rented
here and in New York for the safe
keeping of packages of money given
her by Cooke had been used for the
storing of her own securities and jew
elery. Mrs. Ford denied this. how
ever.
