Dr. Disbrow invited a reporter for TlIK NKWS to accompany him on a visit to one of his patients yesterday morning. The young lady who is tak ing tho treatment was very glad to testify to tho merits of the remedy. Sho stated that she began tho treat ment List Saturday, and after the first dor-o of tho medicine she was perfectly free from any dosire or need of the drug. Dr. Di-brow's method has cer tainly hid a wonderful IT ct in this particular ins-tance, as it is a case of six years' standing and had been g;ven up by local physicians. While the patient prefers not to have her name madu public at the p:eoent lime, sho would be pleaded to converse with anyone who disires to hear tho history of her case, and with a view of aiding other unfortunate suf ferers who seek relief. A more ex tended account of the wonderful cure will appear in those columns at a later date. A Very Successful MeetluR.

Any one who has had au at tack of sciatic or inflammatory rheuma tism will agree that the infliction is demoniac enough to warrant the belief. It has never been claimed that Chamberlain's Pain lialm would cast out demons, but it will cure rheuma tism and hundreds bear testimony to the truth of this statement. One ap plication relieves the pain, and this quick relief which it affords is alone worth many times its cost.

The total applications on file for authority to organize national banks is 50X. the total applications for trie conversion or old banks into na tional banks 3S2. making a total of aH kinds of new bank organizations of 8!H).

He said his orders contemplated the protection of life and property, and particularly to prevent tlie destruction of the mines on Canon creek. One of these mines, the Tiger l'oornian, was threatened with flood if the pump men quit, and as the Burke miners' union ordered the men to quit work he stated at u meeting of the union that he would pive five minutes for the revocation of the order, sub sequently allowing ten minutes. He contradicted previous witnesses that the live minutes was allowed the pump men, with the threat that If they did not work they would be put back at the point of the bayonet. The hearing yesterday was at times nuit.. writirir nwln? tn rnllrwintAS nnil personal exchanges between members of the committee. Hay asserted at one point that efforts were being made by the majority to suppress testimony. Mondell of Wyoming said that this assertion Impugned the motives of members, and was due to a failure by tho minority to pet answers they de sired. Bay hotly retorted throwing back the Insinuation and declaring that it was an "absolute falsehood." The frequency of these encounters made the progress of the testimony slow. Taking of testimony closed yesterday. ItErOItT KROJl GEN. OTIS. Leading Filipinos Confident That the War -m t.. i..n... Will Soon U Over, Washington, May 5.

The itching and burning are almost unbearable, especially when overheated from any cause. The skin seems on fire, sleep or rest is impossible, the desperate sufferer, regardless of consequences, scratches until strength is exhausted. This burning, itching humor appears sometimes in little pustules, discharging a sticky fluid, which forms crusts and scales. Again the skin is dry, hard and fissured, itches intensely, bleeds and scabs over. This is a painful and stubborn form of the disease. While Eczema, Tetter, Erysipelas, Salt Rheum and many like troubles are spoken of as diseases of the skin, they are really blood diseases, because THERE CAN BE NO EXTERNAL IRRITATION WITHOUT AN INTERNAL CAUSE. If the blood is in a pure, healthy condition, no poisonous elements can reach the skin.
