BABY IN MISERY WITH RASH

Monroe, Wis.-"When my baby was
six weeks old there came a rash on
his face which finally spread until 1t
got nearly all over his body. 1t form
ed crust on his head. hair fell out
and the itch was terrible. When he
would scratch the crust. the water
would ooze out in big drops. On face
and body 1t was in dry form and
would scale of. He was in great mis-
cry and at nights would lie awake
holding his hands SO that he could not
scratch and disfigure himself. I tried
simple remedies at first, then got
medicine. but it did no good.
"Finally q friend suggested Cuticura

see what they would do. when to my

suffering among the sick and destitute
of Omaha prevails. Despite frenzied
activity among the relief givers. 1T
was impossible to reach scores who
are cold, hungry and i'll.
The weather has been terribly Sc
we're and it is believed there will be
many deaths from exposure unless
enough workmen can be engaged to
make habitable innumerable shacks,
cellars and sections of buildings now
being occupied by cyclone victims.
Windows are out, stoves and furnaces
are gone, there is no bedding in many
places and all to frequently are the
instances of startling lack of clothing.
The worst feature Of the situation
is that scores Of sufferers either can
not go to the scattered stations where
help is dispensed or are too proud to
do SO. Meanwhile the bitter wind
blows. there is no food in homes
where sickness prevails. window
panes are gone. SO are beds and blan-
kets. There is lack of sanitation and
in some cases there is no one able to
walk to the nearest point of relief.
Almost any time disease may start
and spread among these unfortunates.
Already doctors are in demand and
there were 80 many calls they could
not be filled. More than this. ply
sicians prescribe medicine and there
is NO money with which to buy 1t.
Notwithstanding the extent Of the
demands. the men and women OF Oma-

Revised Summary Of Omaha Tornado.

Omaha. Neb.. March 2G.-Yesterday
FOR the first time since the disastrous

OF Omaha began to count the cost,
both in lives and dollars. When u

more appalling than those who had
studied the result were willing to ad.

vicinity of Omaha proper and not less

were moving at once and to good pur-
poses.
Meanwhile. too, money was pouring
into the relief fund, which by night
had increased by about 100000.
The emergency appropriation of
100000 for the relief of the state
tornado sufferers has been passed by
the Nebraska House OF Representa-
tives. The bill was reported from the
committee at the convening of the
Legislature after noon adjournment,
and action was immediate. The Sen
ate will act on the measure today.
Governor Morehead conferred with
joint legislative comittees and with A.
+. Smith OF Omaha of the relief COM
mission to decide upon the manner in
which the relief fund for Omaha
should be expended. 1t was decided
tc leave expenditures and accounting
to the commission.
There is no doubt that, before all
the giving is done, Omaha will have
had $5dO.OO0 for succoring injured and
destitute.
Two more victims of Omaha's East
er Sundays tornado died during the
night of injuries. They were Mrs
Pearl Arams, bride Of three weeks
wife Of street car conductor. and
Mrs. E. 8. Snyder. whose home was
at Twenty-fourth and Lake streets.
Mayor Dahlman took occasion to
send to the mayors OF the afflicted
Ohio towns an expression OF his sym
pathy, in each message bespeaking for
the people of Omaha the hope that
reports Of flood and disasters might
prove to be exaggerated.
For the first time since the tornado
the city was able to put at work a
force OF men securing the ruins of
the stricken district in search OF ad.
ditional bodies. many Of which Coro-
ner Crosby believes are still beneath
the ruins. To this time 112 dead have
been identified within the city OF
Omaha. Council Bluffs and other ad-
tacent cities report forty.two making
total OF 154. A number of the in.
jrred are still in the hospital and
some Of them probably will not re-
cover.

tablishing gains Of 10 to 10 points
from the years low figures for num-
Der OF important issues. The trading
was broad the heaviest of any day in
many weeks with numerous advances

ment was slightly halted at times by
realizing sales, but these offerings
were easily absorbed and the rise car
ried further Heavy profit taking in

Not only is the abatement Of smoke
and noise in largely populated commit

railroad companies recognize the ne

Attention has been directed to the
possibilities of electrifcatioR involved

clearing yard in Chicago. Work is
already in progress on this improve
ment. and the first unit of the new
yards viii be completed early in 1914
at an estimated cost of 100000.
To remove a large part Of the
freight trafic from the city proper
will not only eliminate much Of the
smoke now made by locomotives in
Chicago but may lead to electrified
ton of the remaining lines. Tie loco
motives are said TO make more than
&C per cent of the city's total smoke,
so that the change to the new trans

materially. Surely electrihcation Of
the tracks that will be used within
the city after the transfer plan is com
