who had rash on its head when 1t

no good. In few days the head was
a solid mass, a running sore. It was
awful; the child cried continually. We
had to hold him and watch him to
keep him from scratching the sore.
His suffering was dreadful. At last
we remembered Cuticura Remedies.
We got dollar bottle Of Cuticura Re-
solvent, box of Cuticura Ointment,
and a bar of Cuticura Soap. We gave
the Resolvent as directed. washed the
head with the Cuticura Soap, and ap-
piled the Cuticura Ointment. We had

ASKS DEATH PENALTY
Arguments to Jury in Kaufman Case
Opened by State.

Chicago, March 1.-Assistant States
Attorney John E. Northrup asked for
lnt1iction of the death penalty upon all
of the defendants in the kaufman MUIR
der trial when arguments to the Jury
were opened.
The defendants, William r, Chan
nell, Is years old; George Rabenau, 21
years old, and John Stacey, % years
old, wept at the arraignment given
them by the public prosecutor.
Attorney Northrup cited authorities
showing that where conspiracy is en-
tered into and one of the conspirators
commit murder, all are equally guilty
and may be sentenced to death.
"Rabenau fired the shot that killed
Mrs. Kaufman" said the prosecutor.
"but I wish to impress upon the minds
of the jurors that the other men are
equally guilty and if Rabenau is given
the death penalty the others, under
the statutes, should be given the
death penalty ALSO"

100000 MINERS
OUT ON STRIKE
ONLY LEGISLATION BY PARLlA.
MEN CAN SETTLE GREAT
COAL STRIKE.
STILL MORE GOING OUT
Premier Asquith Has New Proposal
To Submit, With a Faint
Hope Of Bringing
Peace.

London, Mar. 1.-Compulsory legis.
lation by parliament is now the last
hope of the officials to settle the big
coal miners strike which has affected
more than 100000 men, and was ex-
pected to involve more than a million.
The tieup of the mines throughout
the country is complete. Many of the
men quit ahead of time and those who
remained at work did so only until
their notice to their employers of in.
tentiGsl to quit, compulsory under the
law, became effective.
Meetings of the strike committee
and the employers proved futile. Each
side stood stubbornly by it's original
position, the Representatives of the
men explaining they had no choice,
that the rank and file insisted on a
minimum wage scale and had voted to
strike to enforce it.
Troops will be called out only unless
absolutely necessary. So far the tenn
per of the men is excellent. Their
leaders urged them to remain quietly
at home.
journed without action. Premier AS.
quith explained that parliament would
have to act to establish minimum
wage scale and a further conference
would be held tonight to decide how
this can be done.
The strike situation was most seri-
GUS. Few industries have a reserve
store of fuel on hand and may have to
close down, adding their thousands to
the many already idle.
There is faint prospect of break
in the deadlock between the coal own
ers and the miners. Premier Asquith
has submitted a new proposal to the
miners who have now, signified their
willingness to negotiate on the ques-
ton of safeguards which the owners
demand as a corollary to the establish
ment of a minimum wage.
