SWEARS NO WARNING GWEN
Conductor of Inflated SheboYgan
Car Testifies That Bridge Sig
nails Were Not Displayed

Sheboygan.-Tha no signals were
displayed to show that the bridge was
to be opened, and that the car was
within cars length of the approach
when the draw started to open, was
the testimony of Conductor Frank
Weber at the inquest here over the
bodies of the three women who met
death when a Sheboygan street car
plunged through an open draw
George Theme, motorman of the
Inflated car, was unable to appear,
being still confined to his bed as q
result of the shock.
Conductor Weber swore that he
felt the car slip on the rails, although
the motorman had set the brakes.
Then the motorman attempted to
turn the lever and succeeded in turn
ing it five times, lessening up slightly
on the brakes. When he saw it was
impossible for him to stop the car
he shouted to people standing near
by: Hold her, boys; I can't stop
her."
If an effort had been made to re-
suscitate victims of the plunge into
the draw some of them at least,
would not be dead, is the opinion of
a local physician.
The first body was out of the car
six minutes after it entered the
water. Life has been found in bodies
that have been in water more than
twenty minutes, and persons who
have been in water twenty minutes
have been resuscitated.
No attempt was made, it is de-
clared, to resuscitate any of the vic
tins
The street car which was removed
from the river, has been torn to
pieces by souvenir hunters. The con-
troller of the car has been stolen and
much of the brass work has been
torn out.

CURED HER BABY OF ECZEMA

1 can't tell in words how happy the
word 'Cuticura' sounds to me, for it
cured my baby of itching, torturing
eczema. 1t first came when she was
between three and four weeks old,
appearing on her head. I used every
thing imaginable and had one doc
tors bill after another, but nothing
cured 1T. Then the eczema broke out
SO badly behind her ear that l really
thought her ear would come off, For
months l doctored 1t but to no avail.
Then it began at her nose and her
eyes were nothing but sores. 1 had to
keep her in a dark room for two
weeks. The doctor did no good, so /
stopped him coming.
For about two weeks I had used
Cuticura Soap for her every day,
then got box of Cuticura Ointment
and began to use that In a week
there was marked improvement. In
all / used two cakes of Cuticura Soap
and one box of Cuticura Ointment and
my baby was cured Of the sores. This
was last November; now her hair is
growing out nicely and she has not a
scar on her. / can not praise Cuti-
cura enough, can take my child any
where and people are amazed to see
her without sore. From the time
she was four weeks old until she was
three years she was never without the
terrible eruption, but now, thanks to
Cuticura, ! have we'll child" (Sign-

HEREDlTY
Can Be Overcome in Cases.

The influence of heredity cannot, of
course, be successfully disputed, but
ii can be minimized or entirely over
come in some cases by correct food
and drink. A Conn. lady says:
For years while | was a coffee
drinker | suffered from bilious at
taclls of great severity, from which l
used TO emerge as white as a ghost
and very weak Our family physl-
clan gave me various prescriptions for
improving the digestion and stimulat-
ing the liver, which | tried faithfully
bur without perceptible result.
He was acquainted with my fam
lily history for several generations
back, and once when l visited him he
said: If you have inherited one OF
those torpid ivers you may always
suffer more or less from its inaction
We can't dodge our inheritance, you
know
Il was not so strong a believer In
heredity as he was, however. and, be
ginning to think for myself, l conclud
ed to stop drinking coffee, and see
what effect that would have. l feared
1t would be a severe trial to give II
up, but when l took Postum and haC
it we'll made. it completely filed m!
need for hot beverage and l grew
very fond of 1t.
L have used Postum for three years
using no medicine. During all tina
time have had absolutely none o
the bilious attacks that used to sui
fer from, and I have been entirel,
free from the pain and facilitating ei
fects that used to result from them.
The change is surely very great
and l am compelled to give Postum
the exclusive credit for it" Nam

OVERFLOW CROWD
 AT TENT MEETING
REV. DAWSON DISCUSSES RE PENTANCE BEFORE LARGE
 CONGREGATION.

At the Christian meeting last night the tent was filled to overflow, and all listened attentively to Rev. J. c. Daw- son as he spoke of repentance. He qooted number of passages of scrip ture, showing the importance of preaching repentance, reading Mat. 12:41 and Jonah 8, which explained that repentance was turning away from sim" Acts 17:30 and Pet. 3:9, declaring that all should repent and Luke 13:3, showing the consequence if We fail to repent. He read from the apostle Paul in Cor. 7:S-9-10, in which Paul said: "Godly sorrow was not repentance, but that which worked repentance, and that repent ance was that which followed Cody sorrow. He also read Rom. 2:4, in which Paul said: "The goodness of God leads men to repentance" It was then shown that we should not try to scare men into repentance, but should persuade them to turn away from their sins by holding up the love, the goodness and the mercy of Jehovah, which should be sufficient to cause any man or woman to give up sin and live for God.

MARSHAL SLAYER
 IS STILL AT LARGE
STRENUOUS EFFORTS MADE TO CAPTURE TOM SHOATS,
 WHO KILLED A. D. MERCER.

Beebe, August 3.-Despite strenu- ous efforts to capture Tom Shoats, who struck City Marshal A. D. Mer- cing over the head, killing him instant ly, he is still at large. It was report ed here yesterday that Shoats was seen at the south end of the National Guard camp going in a southerly di- rection, but no trace of him from there could be found He is supposed to have been making his way towards Little Rock
 Marshal Mercing had warrant for Shoats on a charge of bootlegging and had been to serve it. When he was struck on the head by Shoats, Mere l ing was sitting in the restaurant eat ing his dinner, and eye-witnesses say that the attack was entirely unpro- voktd. The pistol was a large one, and it is said that Shoats used the handle on Mercing's head, fracturing ] the skull. He then walked out of the restaurant and made his escape
 Shoats' father lives at Bonneville and it was thought for some time that he would go there and officers were notified to be on the lookout. Later it was not thought that he went there, and efforts have been made to locate him in other places. The police at | ittla Rock have heen notified hllt if has been learned that he has never reached that place.
 Shoats is about six feet, six inches tall and weighs about 200 pounds. He is much larger man than Marshal Mercing was and feeling runs high against the fugitive. Threats of lynch ing have been freely made, and if he should be captured and brought back it is feared that mob violence will be the result.
