My niece’s little baby boy had Eczemaall
over his face, so that he needed continuous
watching, and he scratched the sores con-
stantly. Mornings, his face, hands and clothes
would be stained with blood. She never
could take him out, his face was so full of
sores. She had medical treatment, and tried
everything she heard of. She commenced
using the Commons REMEDIES. The sores

DANGEROUS SIGNS,

Hardly Probable That a. Second [lune

Washington, D. 0., Aug. 19.——I-t is the
opinion of the officials of the treasury
there will be no necessity for another
bond issue growing out of the war, and
that the present revenue law, with
slight modifications, should be retained .

When a man, woman or child has pain in passing urine;
when the desire to make water is frequent, especially at night -
when the urine stains linen; when there are pains in the small
of the back; when there is a sediment in the bottom
of the vessel after it has stood over night—Kidney or
Bladder Disease is present and life is endangered.

A large party of cyclists from this

Wednesday.

Wilton station was burglarized on
Tuesday night. A sample case of cigars
which had been left the night before
had been broken open and the con-
tents taken. Nothing else of value has
been missed at this writing. Agent
Olmstead on opening the station about
six o’clock Wednesday morning saw
two strange men jump from a box car
and hurry up the track. He has a.
good description of both men.

A number of petty thefts this week
seem to point to the fact that another
“gang” has begun operations in this
vicinity. Three such colonies have
been broken up by our selectmen with-
in the past ten years and we trust that
the same prompt measures will be
adopted this time. An expensive
barometer was taken from B. H. Fitch’s
porch on Monday evening and on Tues-
day night Wilton station was entered
and a number of small articles taken.

The suicide theory in regard to the
distressing death of Miss May Brown,
who was killed by the cars on Saturday
evening, is strongly discredited by
those who were near at hand at they
time of the accident.

Invitations have been issued by Rev.
and Mrs. William D. Hart for the

a. force of five thousand troops in the

department of Santiago, as the Second,
Third, Fifth and Ninth regiments of
immunes have already proceeded to
Cuba. This force is deemed ample for
all the demands likely \to be made upon
the army in eastern Cub-a. General
S‘h‘afiter’s entire force is belngTQg-ra'du-
ally withdrawn.

No plans have been definitely settled
for the military occupation of western
Cuba, but General Lee has been as-
sured of this command. He will take
with him the troops now in his incom-
plete corps, with additions to bring the
force up to a. numerical strength of 30-
000 men.

The war department has authorized
the state of Pennsylvania to bring
home its sick and wounded troops, and
the means of transporting these sol-
diers are being arranged.

It is believed at the department that
the well trained and disciplined regu-
lars will have a good influence upon
the troops at present at Santiago and
with them once there the troubles will
cease. The department will be kept ad—
vised as to the conditions, and if more
troops 'ane deemed necessary they will
be sen-t at once.

The government int-ends to take vig-
or'ous measures to preserve the peace
and keep order in Santiago and the
territbry under United States control.
The emphatic order issued to General
Larw’ton a few days ago will be follow-
ed by orders sending sufficient discip-
lined troops to enable him to carry out
the instructions of the secretary: As
a, further step in this direction, the
president yesterday directed that the
Twenty-third Kansas regiment, color-
ed, be dispatched to Santiago, to form
part of the army of occupation of Cu-
bn. The Kansans had ten-dered- their
services for this purposn and had urg-
ed acceptance. which President Mc-
Kinley and Secretary Alger finally
agreed to.

NO MORE PUBLIC CREMATIONS
Gen. Wood Orders That the Spanish
Dead Be Burned Privately.

Santiago de Cuba, Aug. 18.—General
\ cod has issued an order that the bur-
ning of dead Spanish soldiers and pau-
per Cubans should no longer be 00n-
ducted publicly.

This order is the result of the spec-
tacle which was witnessed at the cem-
tery yesterday, when seventy bodies.
were placed within the kiln for crema-
tion.

The fire was started, bu fire came
suddenly and put it out efo-re the
work was half done, and the mass was
left over night, because no oil could
be procured to rekindle the fire after
the storm had abated.

The work was completed this morn—
ing. General Wood dismissed all the
men employed in the work this morn-
ing and employed new ones, increas-
ing the pay of the men in order to in-
sure efficient rvice.

The burning of bodies will continue,
as it is the best and safest means, from
a sanitary point of view, of disposing
of the bodies of Spanish soldiers, -who
are ”dying faster than the cemetery
workmen‘can bury lthem.

Further Advance in Iron.

Pittsburg, PajAug. ASL—Another ad-

vance has been reportd! in structural
iron and steel and billets. Billets in
last week’s report were quoted at $15.50,
a jump of 25 cents per ton, and are
scarce «at that. This is the best price
that has been recorded since the days
of the strong billet pool, two years
ago.
Th't bi'lle't situation is surprising, in
View of the closing down of the im-
mense billet using plants of the Amer-
can Steel and Wire Company lthrough-
out the country on account-of labor
troubles. ,

There is an unusually heavy export
movement, Lin which all the big plants
have participated to some extent alt
least, the Carnegies of this city alone
sending out about 30,000 tctls last week.
Plate has gone up $1 per ton.

England and Russia.

Berlin, Aug. 19.—The Cologne Ga.-
zebte’s London correspondent says rbhat
the fortifications being built on the Ca-
nadian coast are attributed 'to the pos-
sibility of an Anglo-Russian conflict.

Vancouver, B. 0., Aug. 19.—Th‘e~Chi-
nose ambassador, Shir, forlnerly sta-
tioned at St. Petersburg, and also at
Berlin; arrived here yesterdayn 3d
home for a. reSt. He does not think the
trouble between Great Britain and
Russia. over Chinese concessionsfiwill
amount to much. ~

tion of the new excise and stamp taxes,
the revenues of the government will
largely exwed disbursements based on
ordinary peace conditions. This in-
crease in revenue ought to and will
provide for an increase in war and na-
vy department expenditures, which will
no doubt be witnessed even after mili—
tary operations have terminated. That
the enlarged expenditures for the army
and navy over the past will be neces-
sary, is most obvious, and it is a mat-
ter of congratulation that by the wise
action of Congress the government rev-
enue has been put on a bro-ad and ef-

The‘Lske Tagish Gold Mines.

Seattle, Wash, Aug. Ill—Three small
steamers have arrived here from Alas-
ka with fifteen passengers. About one-
t'hird of them only were included in the
list of fortunate ones. Their combined
sacks of gold dust are estimated at
$100,000.

Advices from Pine Creek, near Lake
Tagis'h, where a rich strike was re-
ported a few days ago, say that the
diggings are not so rich as have been
stated. The stampede, hOWever, con-
tinues, men even going from Cook’s
Inlet and Copper river.

At St. Michael boats are landing
freight and passengers, but the conges-
tion has been materially relieved. Pro-
visions are reported scarce and com-
manding high prices. The steamer
Bair arrived at Dawson July 25, from
St. Michael, with a large number of
passengers and a cargo of freight sup-
plies.

 

Victoria, B. C., Aug. 18,—The British
steamer Tess has arrived from Ska-
guay. Her passengers confirm 'the
news of the rich strike on Pine Creek,
in the Lake Tagish district, though
some of them say that previous reports
from there are somewhat exaggerated.
The more enthusiastic ones say that
as high as $50 a pan has been taken
out. The claims can easily be worked,
and are well adapted for hydraulic
machinery. Inspector Strickland of the
mounted police says that the gold will
average fully $30 an ounce more than
the Klondike gold.

 

DISORDER AT SANTIAGO.

 

Local Police Force Increased.
Santiago de Cuba, Aug. 18.-—1‘his mor-
ning General Wood, military governor
of Santiago, increased the local police
force with additions from various reg-
imenits. There has been some trouble

from soldiers who have been disobey—Q

ing orders and there have beenflme
thefts, several street lights at least
one murder, and a. good deal of drunk~
enness, so that an exceptionally large
force is needed to preserve order.

This morning the Eighth Illinois vol-
unteers, colored, entered upon patrol
duty. The First infantry leaves to-day
by the Miller. ,

There are seven Spanish transports
now in the harbor awaiting the embar-
kation 'of the Spanish troo .

The general appearance of the pris-
oners is pitiful. There has been much
sickness among them and within the
last two days over 200 bodies have been
buriedn.

T'he death rate in the city is about
70 per day. The heavy rains increase
file fever among the soldiers and the
inhabitants alike. '

 

Launch of the Admiral Dewey.

Philadelphia, Aug. 19.—'l‘he Admiral
Dewey was launched at 2.40 yesterday
at Cramps’ shipyard.

The Admiral Dewey is the first ‘of
four merchant steamers building at
Cramps’ shipyard for the American
Mail Steamship Company, to be named
for distinguished admirals of the Amer-
ican navy. They are (to be operated in
the trade between Boston, New York,
and Philadelphia and Jamaica, D. W.
1., and may be regarded as the plo-
neer vessels of the post-bellum devel-
opment of American commerce. They
will be run by lt'he Boston Fruit Com—
pany, and will furnish weekly m‘ai-l ser—
vice t-o West Indian ports as far as
Jamaica.

 

Bids for Navy Shells.

Washington, Aug. 19.—Bids for $500,-
000 worth of shells for the navy have
been opened by the naval ordnance bu-’
reau. The awards of contract will take
into consideration the time of delivery
and the facilities of firms. A casual
examination shows the lowest bidders,
on steel projectile-s of large calibre, to
be the Cumberland Steel and Tin Plate
Company of Cumberland, Md., and the

‘Taylor Iron and Steel Co pany of
High Bridge, N. J. The low ~bid for
forged shell was that of It United

States Projectile Cbmpany of Brook-
lyn.
