Wonderful Gere of a Lad 12 Tears old, who for 8 years, from the top of his Mead te his ankles, was one Mass of Scabs. My son, a lad twelve years et age. was af flicted with the worst form of Eczema for a period of eight years. Se virulent was it that irem the top et his head te within a tew Inches of his ankles he was one mass of scabs, which refused te yield te any treatment that was suggested by frien ils or physicians was tried in vain. Allepathy, homecopathy.herbs.roots, salt-water baths, flaxseed poultices, teaps. ointments, and in short everything that could be done te eradicate the disorder seemed only te aggravate it and the child's life became a bnraen te him.and the expense of the various experiments was a constant drain upon our resources. My wife, reading the advertisement el the Cuticura Kxmedies in one of the dally papers, resolved te make one mere attempt at a cure. (The dlsqase was new encroaching upon his lace, and seemed Incurable.) I gave a reluc tant consent te the proposal,and an Interview was sought with a famous lady pliys'clan et New Yerk, who made a most thorough exami nation eiine case, anr premised a cure wiin wiin eut the least hesitation by the use el your Cuticura Remedies.

HARTMAN'S YELLOW FRONT CIGAR STORE. A TERRIBLE CRIME. USING A BASEBALL BAT FOBBUUDCB Hew Jehn Wright, et Chester caanty fatally Beat an Stepfather, wlUi a Baseball Bat. James Graham, of Darby township, Chester county, was en Sunday night attacked by his stepson, Jehn Wright, and 60 frightfully beaten with a heavy ash baseball bat that he has been insensible ever since, ana me attending physicians say he cannot recover. His skull is frac tured in two places, and bis head, face, shoulders and arms are literally covered with cuts and bruises. Mrs. Graham was also badly injured. After breaking the bat te splinters en the old man Wright lied, leaving his victim lying insensible in the yard. On Monday the case was re ported te the authorities, and since than Officers Jonathan Grubbs and James Dod Ded son and a number of citizens have been scouring the weeds and highways in search of the criminal. The country was thoroughly searched, without success, and the officers think that Wright is in Philadelphia, and the police authorities there are looking for him. James Graham, forty-cine years old, is a respectable and well-te de colored man who lives in a village called " The Heek," which is midway en the read between Sharen Hill and Glenolden stations. His home is the best in the village and he has owned it and the land about it mere than a quarter of a century. He retired from active business eight or ten years age and married a widow named Jane Wright, who had one son, Jehn. Shortly after his mother married Gra ham, Jehn, who is new 22 years old, fell into idle ways ana wanted te live oil the means of his stepfather. The old man ob jected and quarrelled with his stepson, who eventually went away. He came back, however , a month later, bringing with him a wife and one child. He rented a house two miles east of " The Heek " and found employment en the farms of the neighborhood. When working near "The Heek' he bearded at his stepfather's house. Wright agreed te pay four dollars per week when he bearded with the Gra ham. Twe months age Graham told his stepson that if he would assist in cultiva ting the kitchen garden he would only charge him Utree dollars a week for beard. Wright accepted the offer. He worked in the neighborhood several weeks, and al though he did nothing in the Graham's garden, he would net pay mere than three dollars a week for his beard. This wor ried Graham, who is very saving, and en Sunday night in the family sitting room he remonstrated with bis stepson, saying : "Jehn, I think you are treating me very shabbily. Yeu knew three dollars a week is nothing for a man with an appetite like yours. Jehn, I ciu't stand it." This refcience te his appotite put Wright into a frightful rage and replied : " Ne, nor can I stand this thing of paying a man as well off as you are nearly half my wages." With these words he drew a razor and rushed at his stepfather. The old man rau behind a contre table and, seizing a steel, tried te defend himself. Wright slashed at him with the razor se savagely that the old man ran out of the deer and, jumping off the perch, snatched np a heavy ash baseball bat and struck an attitude of defense. That, however, did net intimidate Wright, who pressed for fer waid with the razor. Graham then ran into the house, followed by Wright. In the dining room the men clinched,and Mrs. Craham heard her husband say: "Well, I see one or ether of us has get te die." All this time Mrs. Graham and her little daughter were eereaming at the top of their voices. In their struggle the men knocked ever the table and upset a coal oil lamp, which broke and set fire te the carpet and furniture. Mrs. Graham then tried te separate the men. Her son turned and slashed at her with the razor. It caught her left forearm and made a gash live inches long and as deep as the bone. The terrified woman fell te the tloer insensible In the meantime Graham had dropped the bat and iled te the yard, where he tried te conceal himself behind a box hedge. Seiz ing the bat Wright followed and came up with the old man who was en his knees. He tried te rise and as he did se Wright felled him like an ex. Wright continued te beat the insensible man until the bat was shivered. Throwing down the fragments of the bat he exclaimed : "There, you, I guess I've finished you." He then jumped the fence and iled. Mrs. Graham was aroused by her little girl, who told her that Graham was laying dead in the yard. The child was sent te a neighbors for assistance and the wounded man and woman were seen at tended te. Last week Wright was work ing near Chadd's Ferd, but he did net return te work en Monday. Graham is well known in Chester county as " Unde Jimmy " and crowds of his friends visited the house. N TKAIL VOlt AtUBDKR. Ttie Revolting Killing or n In Wile by Jenn Dlllman. At Easten, the trial of Jehn Dillman, for the murder of his wife, Charlette Dill man, who died April 23 from injuries in flicted by her husband en March 20, began Tuesday. When nine jurors had been ob tained the panel became exhausted, and the court directed a special venire te issue. The securing of the remaining jurors oc cupied the most of the day. Dillman's crime was a most cold blooded one. He had neglected te support his wife, and had for a week left her at the poorhouse near Nazareth. On the 23th of March he appeared at the almshouse, bringing with him a new dress for his wife. He told her he had rented a hensa in Seuth Bethlehem, and that if she would go they would set out next morn ing te buy furniture and begin beuse keeping again. Accordingly they started, accompanied by a young woman, who left them near Heoktewn. After walking for an hour longer Dillman told his wife te go into a lane leading off the main read as it was a near cut. Scarcely had they entered the Iane when Dillman told his wife that he was tired et her and meant te kill her. She implored him te leave her, saying she would go back te the poorhouse and would never trouble him, but he disregarded her en treaties. He threw her down, tied her hands, drew a small pocket knife and cut her threat from ear te ear. He then ran across the fields. The peer woman dragged herself bleeding and suffering te a farm house near by, and from there was taken te the almshouse, where she died en April 23. Dillman was subsequently found near Mahaney City and ledged in jail. His wife, hearing of his arrest, said she hoped he would hang for bis crime. STOPPING EXIKAVJUaaUE. Secretary Felger Shutting Down en tbe Pud ding el tne " jresiai uuiae." The " Postal Guide " at Washington, D. C, is a semi-official publication issued annually and monthly by a Bosten house under a contract with the posteffice de partment. The contract authorizes a certain number of pages at a moderate price, but every page above the stipulated number is te be paid for at a high rate. It appears that for a long time past every issue, of the " Guide " has contained a' large number of pages in' excess of the contract, thus involving a heavy eatlay 'for extra pages, and encouraging the pad ding eat of the publication with- extrane ous and unimportant matter. Postmaster General Gresham has deter mined te put a step te this practice and has issued an order directing all copy in tended for publication in the " Guide " te be submitted te his chief elerk for his examination and revisien: It is thought there will be a saving of from $30,000 te $40,000 a year by this. m Uenldn't SUp Him. Arkansaw Traveler. On a railway train, just behind a plainly dressed, motherly-looking woman, ac companied by a noisy boy, sat two fashionably dressed ladies. The boy was given te asking all kinds of foolish ques tions, and occasionally he would whine like a cub and twist himself around and fret. " If I had held of him for a minute I'd blister him till he couldn't stand up," said one of the ladies. " Here, then," replied the motherly old lady, " you may take held of him. If yen want te slap him, slap him, I haven't the heart te de it." "Excuse me," faltered the annoyed; "I did net think that you could hear my re mark." " Oh, no harm done, for I knew that he is enough te annoy anyone, and it may seem strange te yen that I de net slap him, but I can't. Once I had a little boy that I slapped. Every time he would ask foolish questions or whine, I'd slap him. I was determined te bring him up rightly, se that he would please everybody. He was the idol of my life and I did se much want te see him respected. Everybody said that I was a model mother and that my son would be a great man, and I was se flattered by these remarks that I was even mere strict than ever with him. One night just after I had put him te bed company came, and while we were talking the little fellow awoke and began te cry. I told him te hush, and when I found he did net intend te obey me, I went te the bed and spanked him. ' That's what I call discipline,' one of tbe company re marked ; ' and I assure you that in after years you will net regret the strict meas ures which you have adopted.' "The next morning my little boy was tee sick te get up, and all day he lay in bed. At night I sent for a physician, but before morning he was dead. I don't think that there was a mere miserable woman in the world. I took his little beets beets whieh a few days before I had whipped him for getting muddy and I put them en my bureau. I could net bear te live in the same house where both my husband and little boy had died, and I moved away. One evening, while walk ing along a lonely street, I saw a little boy a very small boy standing among some tall weeds. I asked him where he lived, and he plucked a blossom and held it out te me. I asked him where were his mother and father, and with curious intel ligence he replied that seme big men took thorn away in boxes. I knew then, that he was a waif, and I took him home with me. In the night he cried, and I get up and sat by the fire with him and roeked him. He was very delicate, but he was a light that shene en my withering soul. This is the child, and he's wearing the little beets that I put en the bureau. Yeu may slap him, but I can't." for Leve ela LltUe Child. Cincinnati News Journal. In a pottery factory here thera is a workman who had one small invalid child at home. He wrought at his trade with exemplary fidelity, being always in the shop with the opening of the day. He managed, however, te bear each evening te the bedside of his " wee lad," as he called him, a flower, a bit of ribbon or a fragment of crimson glass indeed, any thing that would lie out en the white counterpane and give a color te the room. He was a quiet, unsentimental man, but never went home at night without some thing that would make the wan face light up with joy at his return. He never said te a living soul that he loved that boy se much. Still he went en patiently loving him. And by and by he moved that whole shop into positively real, but unconscious, fellowship with him. The workmen made ourieus little jars and cups upon their wheels, and painted diminutive pictures down their sides before they stuck them in the corners of the kiln at burning time. One brought some fruit in the bulge of his apron, and another engravings in a rude scrapbook. Net one of them whispared a word, for this solemn thing was net te be talked about. They put them in the old man's hat, where he found them, se he understood all about it ; and, believe it or net, cynics, as you will, but it is a fact that the entire pottery full of men, ei rather coarse fibre by nature, grew quiet as the months drifted, becoming gentle and kind, and some dropped swearing as the weary leek en the patient fellow worker's face told them beyond mistake that the inevitable shadow was drawing nearer. Every day new some did a piece ofwerfcforhim and put it en the sanded plank te dry se that he could come later and go earlier. Se, when the bell tolled, and the little coffin cams out of the lowly deer, right around the corner, out of sight, there steed 100 stalwart workmen from the pottery with their clean olethes en, most of whom gave a half day's time for the privilege of taking part in the simple precession, and following te its grave that small burden of a child whieh probably net one had ever seen.
