London', March 12. Copyright. The
first English game of the touring baseball
players was played to-day at Kennington
Oral, under circumstances which were both
favorable and unfavorable. Yesterday the
weather was delightfully clear and crisp, a
surprise for London in March. Early this
morning it began to rain, and at soon to
day a heavy fog overlying the city. In
spite of that fact, not less than 8,000 people
were-present, part of them in the handsome
grand stand back of the home plate; the rest
disposed about the Oval after the usual man
ner of cricket games.
. Williamson, being still a sufferer from the in
jury he received at Paris was not present. His
place in the field was filled by Ryan. The All
Americas went first to bat,; with Hanlon at
the top of the list. He fell an easy victim to
Baldwin's curves. "Ward, who followed him,
had no better luck, and Brown, in turn, was
equally unsuccessful, so that the crack team
was retired in the first inning without a run.
Chicago bad better luck with Healy.and scored
two runs in their half of the first inning.
All-America had their revenge in the second
inning by batting Baldwin freely over the field
and patting four rnns to the good against their
opponents. Nothing was scored in the third,
fourth and fifth innings, all of which were dis
tinguished by a magnificent exhibition of in
and out fielding by both sides. In the sixth in
ning Chicago, by a fortunate bunching of hits,
scored twice, and in the eighth they were even
more fortunate, gaining three runs on oppor
tune batting and dashing base running.
THE PBIXCE ON DECK.
In the midst of the fifth inning a sensation
was observed on the grand stand, which took
the form of a general uprising of spectators
and a general uplifting of hats. His Royal
Highness, the Prince of Wales, arrived at the
main gate, and was escorted to the principal
box above the grand stand. He had come to
the game in an open barouche drawn by a
handsome pair of bays. By his side sat Colonel
Knolly, his private secretary. Mr. Spalding,
Dr. Grace and Mr. Bonner met His Royal
Highness at the gate and escorted him to bis
place. His Royal Highness looked exceedingly
well and showed no trace of the ugly wound
which Baldwin had administered to him at
N ice with a bouquet of cabDages.
Among tbnse who sat in the box with the
Prince was Prince Christian, of Schleswigh
Holsteln. He entered at once into the spirit of
the game, and, with the assistance of Mr.
Spalding and Dr. Grace, who has become quite
enthusiastic for the American game, was able
to follow the maneuvres to the close.
At the close of the fifth inning, within a few,
minutes auer ms ttoyai .mgnness- arrival, tne
boys came together in the center of the field
and gave three cheers and a tiger for the heir
apparent to the English throne. The Prince
acknowledged the salute by lifting his hat,
bowing and smiling pleasantly.
THE PEINCE HIGHLY HONOEED.
Immediately afterward the boys were es
corted by a private way to the box of his royal
highness, and in a room secluded from the gen
eral gaze, were successively introduced to tne
Prince of Wales. He never exhibited himself
in a more favorable light than on this occasion.
He bad a pleasant smile and appreciative, word
for each of the players. As they came up be
Shook each bv the hand, eXDressin his admir.
ation of each man's play. He displayed extra
ordinary familiarity, for a novice, with the
game, and expressed the hope that be might
meet the boys soon again.
His Royal Highness wore a blue beaver over
coat, which on any other person would have
been considered passe. He wore light trousers,
patentleather boots, brown gloves and a sweet
smile. All the boys voted him a thoroughly
good fellow.
"To-morrow the boys are to play on Lord's
ground, an inclosure which is open at this sea
son of the year only under extraordinary
circumstances. Dr. Grace came up from
Bristol to-dar, not only to attend the
game, but to renew Ins importunate
invitation to Mr. Spalding to bring the teams to
Bristol for Friday next. Mr. Spalding has con
"sented. The President of the Chicago club re
ceives with each mail bundles of invitations
from every source, and if it were possible,
could easily dispose of the ensuing month in
England alone. Every city having a ground
seems to desire the presence of the baseball
clubs. Score by innings :

RETIRES AT LAST.
Domlnlck McCaffrey Finally Bays Harry
Alden's Sew York Saloon.
J5ew Yobk, March 12. Dominick McCaffrey
bought the Criterion saloon, at No. 2 Union
Square, yesterday, from Harry Alden. He
said last evening that he bad retired perma
nently from the ring.
i, McCaffrey gave bis record. He has been for
eight years a prize fighter, and has fought with
John L. Sullivan, Charley Mitchell and other
big fellows. He has knocked out Charley Mc
Coy, or Pittsburg; Gus Lambert, Jack Stewart,
Hughes, the Dangerous Blacksmith; Donald
Bennie, the Scotch athlete, and John P. Clow.
He defeated Mitchell in the Madison Square
Garden in 18S4,and says he is the only man who
fought Sullivan seven rounds and got a draw
under the Maiquisof Q.ueensbnry rules.
McCaffrey challenged Jack Dempsey to a fin
ish fight for 55.000 and put up a forfeit of $500
with a Philadelphia newspaper, but it was nat
covered and the forfeit was withdrawn. He
made but little money during his pugilistic ca-
Gnlvln Meets the Gnnp.
, Jimmy Gal vin met the writer on Sixth avenue
yesterday afternoon, and remarked, as he
handed over a. telegram: "The gang is coming
to-night."
What gangf
"Why, my family. I'm goine to meet them
at the depot, and I've just finished a 14 mile
trot."
, Galvin was looking well, and to give the pub
lic an idea of how ball plavers train it need
only be mentioned that Jerms has reduced
himself seven or eight pounds in a few days
by pedestrian exercise alone. Johnny Newell
publicly offers to bet 1500 that he can cover
more miles than Galvin in the approaching
six-day race. Galvin regrets that the ball club
is out of the city that week.
A Western Stable.
Sax Francisco, Cal., March 12. The
Western contingent of Senator Hearst's stable
of thoroughbreds will leave lor Louisville the
first of next month. The string will be under
the supervision of Mr. George S. Van Gordon
and wul be trained by William Murray. Patsy
Dufani, the old California lavonte jockey, will
accompany the string as bead jockey.
..There will be 12 horses in the Western stable,
among the lot beinc Almont and Not Idle, two
Australians and nine 2-year-olds. Almont will
represent the Hearst stable in the Kentucky
Derby.
t
Can Do Without Colleges.
President Smith, of the Wheeling ball club,
was in the city yesterday, and be stated that
bis club haif 21 men signed now to play ball
during next season, and that about seven
others had offered to pay their own expenses
without a salary, merely to make a mark.
Surely base ball has become interesting, and
apparently as necessary to a young man's start
in life as an Oxford, Cambridge, Harvard or
Yale.
The Trl-Stnte LeagueT
The Tri-State League will undoubtedly be a
go this season. President Smith, of the
Wheeling club, yesterday said that since Steu
benvillehad subsided Fort Wayne and other
clubs had come to the front.' There are plenty
of T-Jnbs to select from, but the question is which
will be the best. It seems -that Fort Wayne
will be the most profitable. With Fort Wavne
tthe Tri-State League will "be: Wheeling, Can
, 'ton, Mansfield, Dayton, Springfield, Lima,
Findlay and Fort Wayne,

A STORY ABOUT SULLIYAN.
How He First Attrncted the Attention of
Barney Aaron.
Now that John L. Sullivan is considered al
most hopelessly gone as a first-class pugilist, it
will be interesting to tell how he first expressed
the wish, among prominent sporting men, to
flghtjPaddy Ryan. The story, or more correctly
speaking, the fact of history, was told to the
writer yesterday by a well-known'local sporting
man, who was a principal in the incident. The
sporting man said:
"I first saw Sullivan at Erie when old Goss
and Ryan were to fight, 1 was engaged to sec
ond old Joe, and we were at the Reed House.
Young Sullivan, with a tough's cap on and a
little coat, was among the Eastern visitors, and
he landed there on a pass. He hadn't
a cent. When we were all talk
ing about Ryan, Sullivan remarked
to me: 'I wish it had been me that was going
to fight the big fellow.' meaning Ryan. I said:
Why what would you do with him? and he re
plied that Ryan was his game. I told Barney
Aaron, and he had Sullivan stripped that night
in a private room to inspect his build. I con
fess he was a magniffecntly built fellow, the
picture of health and strength.
"Gossand Ryan fought and, as we all know,
the latter won. Sullivan then got backing to
fight Ryan, and soon defeated him when thay
fought. But Sullivan then was as physically
pure as any man who ever stepped into a ring.
He was in that condition because he was poor.
He won and got money and that was the com
mencement of his downfall. He became
flabby because of his mode of living, and I'm
certain that two or three years after he fought
Ryan he couldn't possibly have fought a victo
rious finish fight against a really good man."
LIVELY WITH THE CUE.
Local Billiard Players Test Their Skill for
Big Stakes.
There is some pretty lively billiard and pool
playing going on in the city for considerable
stakes. There is a good feature about it, how
ever, viz that it is being done in a modest and
quiet way. Frank Eastlemyer and O. M.
Hughes played a series of carom billiard
match es yesterday morning, atleast they played
until anearlyhourof the morning, and as a
result Kastlemyer by stakes was 600 loser.
The two contestants renewed the argument
yesterday afternoon, and Hughes won five
straight games. The afternoon games meant
that Eastlemyer dropped $250 more. Last
evening it was understood that JohnStaley
and "Big John" were having it out for 300 a
side on the table with the cue. It does seem
that there is desire in the city to have an hon
est test of skill, and many consider it a pity
that everybody cannot seo the contests.
A BECIAL BATTLE.
Clenry and MeCann Fight Until They are
Blind. ,
Chicago, March 12. A dispatch from Seat
tle, Wash. T., says: Tom Cleary. ex-champion
middleweight of the Pacific Coast, and James
MeCann, of Nanaimo, B. C, yesterday fought
nine rounds for $100 and the gate receipts. The
fight was awarded to Cleary, as MeCann, who
was being punished ternbly, slipped down to
avoid further punishment.
In the seventh round MeCann went down
eleven times. The fight was the most brutal
ever seen on the coast, one of McCann's eyes
being gouged out and the other so seriously
injured that he may lose his sight entirely.
Fojcnrtj's Bluff;
Ed. Swartwood, Jimmy Galvin, Al Pratt and
all the experienced ball players laugh at
Fogarty's statement that he and Wood are
going to Australia. Swartwood laughingly
said:
"You bet Fogarty's a joker, and sometimes a
sly one at that."
Galvin says: "Fogarty hasn't sisned with
Philadelphia yet, and he thinks his bluff will
be worth a few dollars. We've all been there
before, my boy."

A Fatal Prize Fight.
ISrECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.!
Cceub D' Alene City, Idaho, March 12.
A prize fight occurred here this morning be
tween Jerry Flower, champion of the Territory,
and John Kendall, of Chicago. Four rounds
were fought and Kendall was so badly injured
that he lost consciousness and has since been
in a comatose condition. He will probably
die. Flower was arrested.
A Model Snlarr.
It may be interesting5 to the public, and that
part of It that admires baseball particularly,
to know that in an age of big salaries there is a
man in the Tri-State League who has signed
for SI per month. Here is a blessing to graded
salary promoters and an example to those
kickers who want 4,000 times more than the
modest young man of Ohio.
A Steubenvllle Contest.
Jess Clarke, of this city, and John Martlew,
of Wellsville, O., have been matched to wrestle
for 100 a side, on Saturday night, at Vogel's
Hall, Steubenvllle. A forfeit of SIS a side is
now up, and the balance of the stake is to be
made good on Saturday. A number of local
boxers will appear at the contest.
Lyons Relensed.
Philadelphia, March 12. Harry Lyons,
of last season's champion St. Louis Browns,
last night received from President Von der

Bexinc la Booming There.
WillianiNolan, the pedestrian, received a
letter from his brother in Dublin yesterday.
The letter states that boxing is all the rage in
the Irish capital and that there are numerous
contests every night. He says that the appear
ance of Snllivan at Dublin cave an Impetus to
the fistic encounters that has been sustained
ever since. There is also a strong desire in
Dublin to have six-day go-as-you-please race.
The Croydon Meeting.
Loxsox, March 12. This-was the first day
of the Croydon March meeting. The race for
the grand international hurdle race (handicap)

JAY GOULD R0OKDED UP.
He Has a Few Words to Say on Several
Importnnt Subjects.
lSrECIAL TELEGHAJT TO THE DISFATCR.l
St. Louis, March 12. Mr. Jay Gould
was rounded up by a reporter to-day, and
this is what he said: ,
The railroad situation is worse than I've seen
it in SO years. Hostile legislation in Iowa
alarmed railroads and killed railroad
building. The stockholders in railroads
ought to take a more active share
in the management, then there would
not be so many receivers. Railroads are in
advance of the necessities of the country.
Texas is the worst State in the Union for rail
road earnings. Missouri seems to be the best
State in the TWest just now. I don't believe in
booms, because the reaction always leaves a
vacuum. The Presidents' agreement has im
proved the railroad situation. The scheme
adopted by the general managers here last
week is feasible. I am in favor of the plan and
the agreement.
I want to see the inter-State law enforced.
The amendment making the shipper responsi
ble with the official who cuts the rate is right
and puts the responsibility where It belongs,
I didn't draw up the first Presidents' agree-,
menb The financial situation is weak. Our
exports create a trade balance against us, so
that 1 wonldn't be surprised to see shipments of
specie commence. Besides, we know nothing
of the financial policy of the uew administra
tion. I am out of politics. Good day.
COAL MINERS ORGANIZING.
The Colliers of This Section Flocking Into
' Both Associations.
John Plannery, who has been assisting
Master "Workman Jenkins, of Sub-division
5, N. T. A. 135, K. of L., was here yester
day. He says the meetings held along the
river in the interest of the Knights of Labor
were successful. Fully 1,000 miners have
joined. Most of the men who joined were old
Knights who paid up their back dues.
Mr. Flannery. speaking of the reported suc
cess of the National Progressive Union in
West Virginia In organizing miners, said the
Knights of Labor were doing equally good
work. "West Virginia," he said, "never was
well organized, but almost all the miners are
coming into one of the two organizations. If
the two associations will work in harmony, the
price of mining will be advanced, and this may
benefit the Monongahela miners."
BEMAIHIHG AS KNIGHTS.
The Knights of Lnbor Iron Molders Will
Not Leave Their Order.
Ii. A. 1030, K. of L., composed of ma
chinery molders, held a regular meeting
last evening and transacted routine busi
ness. The report that they were about to leave
the Knights and join the Molders' Union of
America' in a movement to form a strong
organization was discussed. It was pronounced
ridiculous, and all the members announced
their intention of remaining with the Knights.
At the close of the meeting Master Workman
Ross, of D. A. 3, who is also Master Woikman
of L. A. 1030. said: "The local has no intention
of amalgamating with Local Unions Nos. 14
and 46, and you can state positively that we are
on top. If the trades unionists want to give up
their organization and join the Knights they
can do so."

The Admiral Would Willingly light
for a Pin on Principle.
HOW WE COULD WHIP GERMANY.
An Improvised Pleet of Swift Privateers
Would Speedily
DRIVE HER' COMMERCE OFF THE SEAS.
The Charleston Is Expected to be Beady by the First
of April.
Samoan affairs continue to be a leading
topic at Washington. A message has been
sent to San Francisco asking when the
Charleston can be got ready for service.
Admiral Porter strongly condemns the po
sition of Germany and Bismarck. He
would fight for a pin on -principle, and out
lines a plan by which America could make
a successful struggle against Germany.
Washington, March 12. The state ot
affairs in Samoa, and the probable outcome
of the trouble, continues to be a topic of
great interest, especially ii naval circles.
A telegram was sent to-day to San Francisco
from the Navy Department, asking at what
Tato the cruiser Charleston will be ready for
trial. The present information is that she
will be ready April 1. Admiral Porter,.who
has made a careful study of the situation,
expresses himself as follows:
A pin is worth fighting for If a principle Is
Involved. The first war with Great Britain
was for principle and it gave us our independ
ence and national existence. The War of 1813
was for principle, and gave us our maritime
independence. The war with Mexico was for
a principle, and cave us the subjugated posses
sions of our whole Pacific coast. The war for
the Union was for principle, and resulted in
the restoration of the autborltr of the Consti
tution and gave us a people North -and South
animated by a military spirit which will be
equal to every possible requirement.
BISMARCK'S IDEA.
I have carefully Investigated the stories
about the Nlpsic It looks as If they were put
out at the Instigation of Bismarck to test the
sentiment of his own and our people. He has
never been a friend of the United States. He
will find out very promptly the temper of the
American people.
Of course we are weak at present on the
ocean, but there is a plan which will meet tho
emergency and will oadly cripple Germany
while we are getting ready. No one supposes
that the American people would give up the
contest until Germany had. received a spund
drubbing. We have surplus and revenue
enough, with taxes now at a minimum point,
to carry on desultory war until we are in fight
ing trim.
While we are getting ready we can prohibit
the entry of German manufactures in the
United States. That is an important Item in
the monetary activity of Germany. We send
many millions there to pay for goods. If. ior
the time being, Germany should try to blockade
our ports. In less than 60 days we would find an
English fleet on our coasts Involved in protec
ting her own trade with the United States.
HELP PLENTY.
A hundred millions and more of British"
goods find a market In the United States and
could not be cut off without mining British in
dustries. France would also bave an interest.
Meanwhile we could get along without their
goods if necessary. So that Encland and
France would be forced, as a measure of indus
trial self-defense, to protect tbeir vessels and
their trade with the United States.
As the country knows, I have been urging in
letters and reports the importance of .building
up a powerful navy. We bave the wealth and
resources to1 lead the world in a navy. But
taking matters as they are, the Government
should go to England and France, both coun
tries being ahead of Germany in modern naval
vessels and guns, and buy all the rifled guns
and bring them here. We will very soon make
use for them.
Here is a list of 'the entire strength of the
German navy. It is more than we have, but we
have the money and could easily spend J250,
000,000 in ships and appliances of war. There
is League Island, at Philadelphia, the grandest
place on the continent for a great navy yard.
WE CAN BUILD ONE( .
If we can build one we can build 50 ships
right there. It is Inaccessible to a foreign
fleet. The channel of the river could be lined
with torpedoes, if necessary, or they might be
operated from the shore. Ships could be built
there with all the materials near at hand. Of
course this would take time.
In the meantime we would be compelled to
resort to other modes of offensive war. With
150,000,000 in 60 days I could put an improvised
fleet in motion which "would make short work
with German commerce. There are 600 Ger
man steamers afloat. I know where they are.
We have fleet ships; 1 could pick them out
now. We could buy more. They would an
swer for privateers.
About the time we would have this, part of
the work disposed of. German industries af.
1 fected by foreign trade would be paralyzed.
We are always prosperous In time of war. We
would then be getting rea"dy to begin fighting.
It might be possible that Germany would seize
Samoa 'for the time being. The European
aspect of the question would present another
complication. '

great expense, as every person auiblts that it

pense of one principal and one jariltor. The
motion was defeated. .
Mr. Diehl, of the High School ."Visiting Com

How a McKeesport Farmer Was Victimized
by Two Confidence MenOvcr In AHe
fiheny. Chris Ijiebrnm, a farmer living near Mc
Keesport, started out yesterday morning to
visit some friends living at Harmony, in
Butler .county. He did. not see them, but ob
tained some experience which will be very use
ful to him in the future. He was the victim of
a confidence man, and a very clever game, al
though he only lost $32.
Mr. Liebrum purchased a ticket for Harmony
at the P. & W. R. B. depot in Allegheny yester
day altemoon and sat down to wait for the
train. While he was waiting a stranger entered
into conversation with him, and after talking
about the prospects of the crops for this season
learned tbtt be was going to Harmony to see
some friends whose names were mentioned.
The stranger claimed to know these persons,
and said he was on his way to Harmony but
did not intend to go until the next day as his
baggage was not ready. He thought, however,
that if he could get company he might arrange
his affairs and go on the same train
with Mr. Idebrum. The latter said
he would be delighted to bave
company on the trip and asked the stranger to
try and fix things so that be could go on the
next train. The man left, and returned In a
short time. During his absencehe had evidently
seen an accomplice and "fixed things" for be
asked the McKeesport farmer to accompany
him for ashort walk to the Adams Express
Company where he would pay the freight on
his goods and have them shipped.
The farmer agreed, and they left the depot.
Before the pair had proceeded very far, Mr.
Xlebrum was stopped bv his companions, who
responded to a call of "Hello. Scott." When
the man who hailed him caught up to the pair,
he said, "Mr. Scott, you need not trouble your
self any further abont your goods, as they will
be shipped on the next train. There are $32
charges on them, which must be paid at once."
Scott, as the fellow was called, promptly pro
duced a 100 bill with which to pay the amount,
but the pseudo express agent, as he afterward
proved to be, was unable to change it. Mr.
Scott then turned to hisnewly made friend and
asked for a loan of tho amount needed. The
loan was given, and "Scott" said he would re
turn it as soon as he reached the depot and got
his big bill changed. When they arrived at the
depot "Scott" told Mr. Liebrum to go into the
train and "hold a seat for him until he got his
ticket."
Mr. Liebrum held the seat until the train
Suited out, when he realized the fact that he
ad been victimized and promptly jumped off
the train. He did not visit his friends at Har
mony yesterday, but told the Chief of Police
all about it and gave a description of the men.
The Allegheny authorities are now looking for
them. '
PRETTT- EAILWAIS ON PAPER,
But They Don't Pan Oat When a Fellow
Hants for Projectors.
The telegraphic story published in yester
day morning's papers, that. Mr. Andrew
Carnegie'and some New York capitalists
had purchased the Ohio Valley railway or
a majority of its stock, and, by the aid of the
P., C. & Y., the C, Y. &P. and the N. Y.. P. &
O. railways, would have a through Pittsburg
and Cleveland line, and parallel with the P.,
F. W. & C. railway, connect Carnegie's steel
mllLwith the ore docks on Lake Erie, etc., oc
casioned some talk in the city yesterday. It
seems to have been a good story, only it wasn't
true.
John G, MacConnell, Esq., said of the canard:
"You can say that it is a story cut out of the
whole cloth. If the Pittsburg, Chartiers and
Yougblogbeny Railway had been secured I
wonld know something about it, and I would
be wanting to get in on the ground floor, too.
I know that Mr. Carnegie has not done any
thing of the kind. You may feel sure that I
know what I am talking about."
Others who are supposed to know (some peo
ple connected with Mr. Carnegie in business,
and Pennsylvania Railroad officials also) stated
that Mr. Carnegie was not in the alleged deal.
It is said that he does hold a controlling Inter
est in the stock and bonds ef the Valley Rail
way, but was forced some time ago to secure
control on account of his inability to
otherwise secure bis claim for rails
furnished the road. Some people,
however, say they believe the report that the
Chartiers and Yfoghloghenv Railway will be
extended from Mansfield to Braddock, 15 miles,
which will secure a direct line from the lake to
the Braddock Steel Works. It is also said
there is a probability of a road being built from
Braddock to Port Perry, and thence up Se
wickley creek to the coke fields, almost on the
survey of the South Penn. If accomplished,
the extension of the Pittsburg. Chartiers and
Yioghloeheny will be of much benefit to the
Chattier coal operators.
Thus, while the story published may not be
strictly true, many people think some bene
flcial enterprise, and a rather extensive one,
is either hatched or in process.
A LOCAL M'ALL MISSION
To be Supported In Connection With the
Plttsbnrs Auxiliary.
At the first annual' meeting of the reor
ganized auxiliary of1 the American McAU
Association of Pittsburg and Allegheny, in
the parlors of the V. M. C. A. building yes
terday, the report of the Secretary, Miss
Blanche Oudry, showed that the work of the
associatiou has been growing in interest. Ten
citv churches are represented in the auxiliary.
The report of the "Treasnrer, Mrs. Henry
Laugblin, showed that the receipts for the
year exceeded the expenditures by $478.
BRev. George T. Purves made an interesting
address, embodying some of the reasons why
Americans should go back over the road over
which Christianity came to preach to the peo
ple of France, where so many churches have
already been established.
A number of letters were read from workers
in Pans; one from Mrs. C. B. Chase, recom
.mending a preachine station to the Pittsburg
auxiliary, and stating that it could be sup
ported at a cost of $560 per year. It was de
cided to take charge of the mission, and, the
managers pledged themselves to raise the nec
essary amount each year. '
TRAIN DISPATCHERS' MEETING.

sure thorough organization -and enlarge our
membership?" Upon this question an address
will be made by W. B. Blanton. A paper will
be read by C. A. Batterton on "The Train Dis
patchers' Association of America:" "Train Dis
patching as an Art," by J.J. E. Dowd;"The
r ULuru iuuuu ui xtapiu inmmunicailon Ap

IJiave used your Cuticuka Rexkotes in
two cases where, it proved to be successful.
The first was In tbe case of a boy a year and a
half old. His face and body were In a terrible
condition, the former being completely covered
with sores. I took him to tho Massena Sul
phur Springs, but he did not improve any. I
was then advised "to try the CrmcruBA Rkh.
edieS, which I did. He took one and one
half bottles of CunciTBA Resoi.'veut, when
his skin was as smooth as could be, and is to
day. I used the CuricuitAonhls sores and
the CrmcTTBA Soap in washing him. He Is
now 6 years of age, and all right. The other
case was a disease of the scalp, which was
cured by washing with the Cdtictjea Soap
and rubbing In the CJrmcnntA, one bottle of
CuncTTRA .Resolvent being used. They
have proved successful in every cas9 where I
have advised the use of tbem. It Is surprising how
rapidly a child will improve under their treat
ment. 1 recommend them for anv disease of
the skin as being the best in the world. This is
my experience, and I am ready to stand by my
statement. JOHN R. BERO,

We have used your Cuticuka Remedies,
and find them worthy the claim you make for
them. In fact, they cannot be too highly rec
ommended. Our little girl bad tbe eczema,
and suffered intensely for one winter, and, al
though under tbe care of a skilled physician,
he could afford her no relief, but by the use of
your Ctjticuba Remedies she was speedily
cured. We will not be without your Cutiuuma
remedies. B. A. MANLEY, Milo, la.

Disease!
Boy nine years old- Bad humor all his Ufa.
Small, red blotches, with dry, white scab,
from held to feet. -Two physicians fall.
Cured by Cuticura.
My boy, aged 9 years, has been troubled all
his life with a very bad humor, which anpeared
all over bis body in small red blotches, with a
dry white scab on them. Last year be was
worse than ever, being covered with scabs
from the top of his head to his feet, and con
tinually growing worse, although he had been
treated by two physicians. As a last resort, I
determined to try the Cuticuka Remedies,
and am happy to say they did all that I could
wish. Using them according to directions, the
bumor rapidly disappeared, leaving the skin
fair and smooth, and performing a thorough
cure. The Cdttcura Remedies are all you
claim for them. They are worth their weight
in gold to anyone troubled as my boy was. '
GEORGE F. LEAVITT,
North Andover, Mass.
I can praise tbe Cutiuuiia Remedies very
highly, for they have cured mypaby of a very
bad case of eczema, and my boy of sore eyes and
breaking out on bis face. They are both well,
and have nicer skin than ever. I think it Is- a
wonderful cure, and have recommended the
CuncrraA Remedies to a gTeat many.
