CHILD'S HEAD

IT think the Cuticura remedies are
the best remedies for eczema have
ever heard Of. MY mother had child
who had rash on its head when II
was real young. Doctor called It babY
rash. He gave us medicine, but It did
no good. In few days the head was
a solid mass, running sore. It wan
awful; the child cried continually. We
had to hold him and watch him 10
keep him from scratching the sore.
His suffering was dreadful. At last
we remembered Cuticura Remedieh
We got dollar bottle Of Cuticura Re-
solvent. a box of Cuticura Ointment
and 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
not used half before the child's head
was clear and free from eczema, and
It has never come back again. His
head was healthy and he had beau
tiful head Of hair. I think the CUT
cura Ointment very good for the hair.
It makes the hair grow and prevents

MEXICAN REBELS
CAPTURE JUAREz
CAMPA WILL PRESS ON AFTER
EASY CONQUEST.
Mexican Consul in Ell Paso Announces
There Would Be No Vigorous
Resistance.

FL Paso, Textile Vasquistas rebe
element, which took possession of Ciudad
Juarez after the firing of single vol
ley, plans next to capture the city Of
Chihuahua. Col. Antonio Rojas, with
700 rebels, arrived at Baucha shortly
after noon and stopped his march there
unaware of the developments at Juarez
Gen. Campo declares there are 900 rebels
already in Juarez, and that the arrival
of the Rojas group will give him the
total of 1000, which he said recently
he would have in Juarez. He says that
Maj. Tomas Loza will remain at Juarez
will proceed southwark over the line
of the National railways for an assault
on chihuahua, which is being held by
Gen. Pascual Orozco.
Gen. Campo said he did not believe
the report that Col. Francisco Villa with
his loyal insurrectos was coming to
Juarez, and that he considers the town
safe from any assault by federals.
Following the seizure of the town the
Vasqustas set about the task of estab-
fishing new municipal government and
of maintaining perfect order.
Not long after the beginning of the
rebel advance, Mexican Consul Llorente,
in Ell Paso, announced there would be
no resistance to rebel investment of
Juarez. He declared this determination
had been reached in order to prevent a
repetition of last Mays battle; in which
Mexican bullets Missed across the Amer
lean boundary into Ell Paso.
Guadalajara, Mexico.-Thirty rebels
under Francisco Del Toro were killed in
an engagement with state trops at San
Juan de Amula, west of Honya, where
a battle occurred. The few that es-
capped scattered in various directions. 1t
is believed this engagement will end the
revolutionary movement in this state.

Chicago.-Suits for an injunction t.

ule for the distribution of coal cars, Of
which there is said to be shortage
now, was filed in the United States dis
trict court by the Taylor Coal Company

of commercial shipments within the
Astate against interstate commerce.
The injunction proceedings are re.
garded as of vital importance to shippers
OF coal from Chicago to the gulf of
Mexico.
The complaint alleges that should the
new schedule stand, Is per cent of the
car supply of shippers in the interstate
traffic of coal will be diminished.
The action in the federal court is
based on the ground that the new seized
ule violates the interstate commerce law

United States Desires More Happiness

Panama.-The American secretary OF
state, Phlander G. Knox made his first
formal appeal for closer union Of the
American republics. The occasion was
state dinner given by the acting presi-
dent of Panama, Rodolfo CHAR, in hon
or of Mr.. Knox, and judging by the ap-
plause the secretary's remarks were re-
ceived in spirit that was markedly
sympathetic and cordial.
In response the Panama minister of
foreign relations. Aristides Arizona, the
only other speaker of the evening, said:
Eve know that your mission is for in
ternational concord and union. Tell your
government that we are linked by in
soluble ties-a thousand reasons of graft
tude binding the Unitsd States and
Panama, and we know how to respond
to an invitation of an American"
Secretary Knox said in part: 81 take
this opportunity of assuring all the
American republics that the purpose of
the United States toward them is that
we should live in amity and essential
harmony and that we desire only that
more peace, more prosperity, more hap
piness and more security should come
into and become a part. of their indi.
vidual and national lives.
while it is entirely clear to those
who have fully and intelligently consid-
cred the history of the relations of the
United States to the other American re-
publics that our policies have been with
out trace of sinister motive or de-
sign, craving neither sovereignty mol
territory, yet it is true that our motives
towards you have not always been for
tunately interpreted either at home or
faithfully represented by some of our
rivals who have resided in your midst.

STEEL TRUST MADE BILLION
Morgan & Company Were Paid $780,
100000 to Organize Trust.


Washington.-The house steel trust in
vestigating committee made public the
result of the inquiry into the books
and minutes of the United States Steel
Corporation, conducted by Farquhar j.
McRae, an expert accountant.
The McRae report reaches the conclu.
sion that the steel corporation operates
in restraint of trade and prevents COM
petition through a manipulation of prices
through the influence of the so-called
Gary dinners" by control of raw ma
terials and through system of inter-
locking directors in various companies.
It also tends to contradict some of the
testimony given by steel trust officials.
Some of the figures dealt with in the
report are startling. It is shown that
j. P. Morgan & Co. received approxi-
mately $7O,OOO,O00 in cash profits for
organizing the big steel combine, and
that the net profits of the concern for
the first nine years of its existence were
more than billion dollars.
