mot ALTOGETHER HIS FAULT
Verdict Brought In by Jury Certainly
Was Not Fattering to the
Accused.

A Wheeling CIV. Va.) lawyer says
that he has heard many queer YER
diets in his time, but the quaintest of
these was that brought in not long
ago by jury of mountaineers in a
sparsely settled part of that state.
This was the first case for the ma
jority of the jury, and they sat for
hours arguing and disputing over it in
the bare little room at the rear of the
court room. At last they struggled
back to their places, and the foreman,
a lean, gaunt fellow, with superla-
lively solemn expression, voiced the
general opinion:
The jury don't think that he done
it, for we allow he want there, but
we think he would have done it Ell
he'd had the chanst. Harper Mag

Indian Sacred RulIdinqs.

The rock-hewn temples of Elephan-

visited recently by the king and
queen numbered six, and four of them
are nearly complete. They date from
the eighth century A. d. or somewhat
later. The Great Cave, $50 feet above
high-water mark, belongs to a class
of sacred buildings very common in
India. 1t is a silva temple, fully 13U
feet long, the main body being a
square of about 80 feet, hewn from
the rock so as to present three open
sides, and supported by six rows OF
stone columns.

BABY'S HAIR ALL CAME OUT

when my FIRST baby was six months
bumps. They would dry up and leave
a scale. Then it would break out
again and it spread all over his head.
All the hair came out and his head
was scaly all over. Then his face
broke out all over in red bumps and
hands and arms. l bought several
boxes of ointment, gave him blood
medicine, and had two doctors to treat
him, but he got worse all the time.
He had it about six months when a
friend told me about Cuticura. 1 sent
and got bottle of Cuticura Resolvent,
cake of Cuticura Soap and a box Of
Cuticura Ointment. In three days
after using them he began to I'M
prove. He began to take long maps
and to stop scratching his head. After
taking two bottles Of Resolvent, two
boxes of Ointment and three cakes of
Soap he was sound and well, and never
had any breaking out of any kind. His
hair came out in little curls all over
his head I don't think anything else
would have cured him except Cuti-
aura.
II have bought Cuticura Ointment
and Cuticura Soap several times since
to use for cuts and sores and have
never known them to fail to cure what
put them on. Cuticura Soap is the
best that I have ever used for toilet
purposes" (Signed) Mrs. F. E. Har-
mon, R. F. D. 2, Atoka, Tenn, Sept.
10, 1910. Although Cuticura Soap and
Ointment are sold everywhere, sam
pie of each, with 32-page book, will
be mailed free on application to "Cuti-
rura," Dept L, Boston.

Coffee" writes an Ohio woman, now 1

Then I gave up coffee and COM

the directions exactly, it was grand.
1t was refreshing and satisfying. In
a couple of weeks l noticed a great
change.
Il became stronger, my brain grew
clearer. 1 was not troubled with for
getfulness as in coffee times, my
power of endurance was more than
doubled.
The heart trouble and indigestion
disappeared and my nerves became
steady and strong.

CIVIL WAR
FIFTY YEARS AGO
THIS WEEK

February 4, 1862.
A lively skirmish occurred on the
banks of the Accoquan, in Virginia.
Captain Lowing of the Second Mich
:gan, on picket duty in front of Gen
cral Heitzleman's position, took seven
ty-eight men from the regiment and
started out in search of a body of
Confederates who had been reported
to be in Pohick church. Not finding
the enemy at the church the Federal
soldiers proceeded to Occoquan, where
they encountered them. A brisk fire
was maintained for time, when the
Federals withdrew.
j. P. Benjamin, secretary of war for
the Confederates states, issued an or
der for the impressment of all salt
petre found in the hands of any but
the manufacturers or Confederate au-
thorities, the same to be paid for at
the rate Of forty cents a pound The
order was made necessary by the ex-
tortion that had been practiced on
the Confederate government by bands
of spectators, VINO had obtained a
corner on the commodity
The Richmond Examiner uttered a
strong plea to the citizens of the
south, asking them for more active
support of the Confederacy, and warn
ing them against too great security
in their recent victories.

May Be Plans of Famous Ship.

Great interest has been aroused in
Australia of the discovery Of some old
ships plans, believed to be those of
the barque Endeavor in which Captain
Cook discovered Australia, which are
now in the possession of the Austria
lasian Pioneers club. The plans have
apparently been in Sydney for a long
time. They belonged to Mr.. Cum
mings, blacksmith, who received
them and other charts and diagrams
from a Mr.. Korff, naval contractor,
said to be descended from ship
wright who sailed with Captain Cook.

cremation AMONG the Franks.

An interesting archaeological dis
eovery was made lately near Brecht
(Belgium), where the remains of what
was evidently a Frankish cemetery
have been found The main interest in
the discovery lies in the fact that
clear traces are to be seen in the Gem
etery of cremated remains, as well
as of bodies buried in the ordinary
way, whereas hitherto 1T has always
been believed that cremation was not
oracticed amongst the Franks.

Roanoke island, North Carolina,
with all it's defenses, was captured by
the combined naval and military force
Of the United States, under Commo-
dore Goldsborough and General Burn
side. The expedition had entered Ro-
anoke inlet the previous morning, en-
gaging the Confederate gunboats and
two batteries, Forts Barlow and
Blanchard, on the Croatan river side
of the island. The barracks in Fort
Blanchard were set af1re but no other
considerable damage was inflicted on
either side.
Early in the morning the Union
land forces advanced in three col
umns against Fort Barlow. General
Porter, commanding the center, moved
down road; General Reno moved
through the swamps to take the en-
envy in the right flank, and General
Parke moved through the swamp on the
other flank. Both thanking parties are
rived simultaneously, just in time to
relieve the central column from Sc
we're pressure. The works were taken
by assault of the two fanking col
umns.
The Confederate squadron engaged
the naval force again in the morning,
but soon after the fall of Fort Barlow
the entire island, together with Fort
Foster on the mainland, was surren-
dered.. Three thousand prisoners, six
batteries and quantities Of stores were
taken. The Union forces lost thirty
five killed and two hundred wounded.
