San Francisco, May 6.—Dectails of a raid made by Chinese pirates on the steamer Shingtai, March 31, in which a number of the ship's officers and crew were killed and $30,000 stolen, were brought here yesterday by the Japanese liner Nippon Maru. The Shangtai, a Chinese-ownetl vés- sel, which flies the British flag, salled from Hong Kong in the evening with seventeen passengers, who proved to be pirates. Threé hours out of port a prearranged signal was given and the pirates drew pistols and knives and attacked four soldiers who had been { supplied by the Canton government to guard the vessel's treasure, One soldier was killed and another injured. The pirates then rushéd into the en- gine room and took charge. There the keeper of the ship's stores tried to irtervene and was killed. By disguising himself as a coolle and hiding, the Chinese skipper escaped with his life, According to the Nippon Maru's of- ficers, the entire coast of China is in- fested with pirates. The government, being without funds to operate a coast patrol, is powerless. Thus' far only native vessels have Leen attacked, DRIES SKIN ERUPTIONS RIGHT UP END ECZEMA WITH SULPHUR USE LIKE COLD CREAM TO STOP ITCHING The moment you apply bold-sulphur tc an itching or broken outskin, the itching stops and healing begins, says o renowned dermatologist. This remarkable sulphur made into a thick cream effects such prompt re- lief, even in aggravated Eczema, that it is & never-ending source of amaze- ment to physicians. For many years bold-sulphur has occupied a secure position in the treat- ment of cutaneous eruptions by reason of its cooling, parasite-destroying properties and nothing has ever been found to take its place in relieving irritable and inflammatory affections of the skin, While not always estab- lishing a permanent cure, yet, in every instance, it immediately subdues the ' itching irritation and heals the Fczema right up and it is often years wter before any eruption again mani- Zests itself. Any good pharmacist will supply an vunce of bold-sulphur eream, which should be applied to the affected parts 1:ke the ordinary cold creams. It 1#n’t unpleasant and the prompt re- liet afforded is very welcome, par- ticularly when the Eczema is accom- panied with torturous itching.
