Mexican Artist Secures Paintings
From San Carlos Fine Arts School
and Fifes Building.
[ \ City of Mexico.—Ignacio Martinez,
a young Mexican painter, who recent-
ly returned from Italy, where he spent
several years studying painting on a
government pension, Friday night
made a bold attempt to steal from
San Carlos Fine Arts School six of its
most valuable paintings, among them
four Murillos.
Martinez hid himself Friday in the
school and stayed in hiding until
sometime .after midnight, when he
took down the paintings which he in-
tended to steal.
yBefore leaving the gallery he start-.
t, ; ell a fire in the hall, expecting it to
’'•’•aipread and destroy all evidences of
j the theft.
■ Trickily the fire was discovered he-
lp* fore 'liN^aused serious damage and it
was then that the absence of the six
S valuable paintings was noticed. Mar-
tinez was caught on the premises
when he attempted to leave. He con-
fessed to the plot and said he intend-
, ed to sell the paintings abroad for at
least 6,000,006 pesos. sd
- .The Murillo paintings which he at-
tempted to steal were ‘‘The Immacu-
late CoflfgntjSgk” uSt. John the Evan-

Chicago.—Danger of a strike of the
engine crews of Western railroads
was deferred Saturday when the rep-
resentatives of the men accepted an
offer of mediation by William L.
Chambers, chairman of the federal
board of medmtion and conciliation.
The mediation offer came as a re-
sult of a request by A. W. Trenholm,
chairman of the committee of gen-
eral managers, which was made in
spite of'a formal announcement that
the employes would decline to accept
mediation. The latter charged that
in the past the railroads had refused
to abide by the findings of arbitration
board.
The following message was sent by
Warren S. Stone, grand chief engi-
neer of the Brotherhood of Locomo-
tive Engineers, and W. S. Carter, pres-
ident of the Brotherhood of Locomo-
tive Firemen and Enginemen:
“We have refused to join the man-
agers' committee, in the request for
mediation because we feared that it
would be an implied acceptance of ar-
bitration. No One knows better than
yohrself aud the other members of
the federal board of mediation and
. conciliation the manner in which the
m:
t
rapppads have repudiated arbitration
■vards. We recognize, however, that

ts proffer of your friendly offices

THOUGHT SHE
GOULD NOT LIVE
Restored to Health by Lydia
E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound.
Unionville, Mo.—“I suffered from a
female trouble and I got so weak that I
could hardly walk
across the floor with-
out holding on to
something. I had
nervous spells and
my fingers would
cramp and my face
would draw, arid I
could not speak, nor
sleep to do any good,
had no appetite, and
everyone thought I
would not live.
Some one advised me to take Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. I had
taken so much medicine and my doctor
said he could do me no good so I told my
husband he might get me a bottle and I
would try it. By the time I had taken
it I felt better. I continued its use, and
now I am well and strong.
“I have always recommended your
medicine ever since I was so wonder-
fully benefitted by it and I hope this
letter will be the means of saving some
other poor woman from suffering."—
Mrs. Martha Seavey, Box 1144,
Unionville, Missouri.

Vegetable Compound have thousands of
such letters as that above — they tell

FACE COVERED WITH
PIMPLES—RESINOL CURED
Atlanta, Ga.. April 24.—“My face
was covered with pimples which de-
fied creams, soaps and cosmetics.
They were a source of constant hu-
miliation to me. By the time I had
finished a cake of resinol soap and
half a jar of resinol ointment, my skin
was soft as velvet, and as smooth.
My friends were stunned, and every-
one asked me what I had done. When
I told them, I thiuk they hardly be-
lieved it, for the transformation was
simply wonderful. Since then I have
been using resinol soap and shall nev-
er be without it again, for I have
learned the delights of a clear, soft,
beautiful complexion that may be at-
tained by its constant use.” (Signed)

REAL HOME FOR THE HOLE
One Hundred Years Ago.
The carious modes which women af-
fect now began as far back as 1798,
which is a period we should hardly
wish to copy in most respects. A
dance not at all unlike the tango was
in vogue at that time, and had many
exponents, who danced in loose bod-
ices opening in a V shape from the
shoulders almost to the waist. Skirts
were slit and were often made of
transparent gauze.
We may return to the gowns of that
period, which were without waists,
having simply a girdle to the bust,
with skirts caught up rather short in
front and slightly trained at the back.
In 1800 women wore sandals and
bare feet. Corset belts were only
about two inches wide. Some gowns
were caught up to the knee with large
cameos. Soon fashion overreached it-
self and then came crinolines, pointed
footgear and Unnaturally small waists.
Are we coming to this?

read and answered by a woman and

TAKE
Finds Secure Abiding Place After a
Period of Troublous
Wanderings.
Everett P. Dahlgren, the millionaire
opponent of woman suffrage, said at
a suffrage debate in Boston:
“I always declare that woman
shouldn't enter politics till she’s ful-
filled all her prior duties.
‘‘‘Prior duties! Prior duties!’ So
a young lady mocked me one day.
‘What do you men mean by these
“prior duties” that you’re always talk-
ing about, Mr. Dahlgren?’
“So then I told the young lady this
story:
“Once upon a time, I began, a little
hole was born; and it. looked around
to see where it should take up its
abode.
“It first decided on a window, but. a
man came straightaway. and put in a
new pane. It next chose a chair seat,
but the housewife sent for a caner,
and in a jiffy a new seat was put in
the chair. The hole now selected a
baby’s rattle, and the baby was so
pleased that it began to tear the rat-
tle to pieces and the poor hole, half
crazed with fright, had just time to
escape. It threw itself, more dead
than alive, into the first thing that
came to hand, which happened to be
the sock of a suffragist husband.
j’jtf'There, at least, the hole seems to
have found a real home. Its peace
has not been troubled from the be-

BODY COVERED WITH ECZEMA
R. F. D. No. 1, Tazewell, Tenn.—“My
disease started on my legs in a small
patch and kept spreading until my en-
tire body was covered. It would itch
and burn till I could not sleep at
night. I would scratch till the blood
would ooze out and run down my body
and legs. The eruption came out in
small red pimples and when I
scratched the whole surface of the
skin became irritated, red and ugly
looking. My clothing seemed to irri-
tate it. The pimples were on iny
hands, arms, legs, feet and entir^
body, especially between my fingers
and toes. I al30 had dandruff on my
head until mv hair was all falling out.
“I was tola it was eczema and took
a treatment, but all remedies failed.
Then I got some Cuticura. Soap and
Ointment. I first washed with Cuti-
cura Soap and warm water, dried well
and then applied the Cuticura Oint-
