T?you have any business with Mr. William C. Bolton, President of the Bolton Drug Co., Brooklyn, N. Y., you must elbow your way through & crowd of customers, and you will find him working at a modest little desk in the rear of the long counters. A man who has five large stores to look after must learn to do at least two things at once, and Mr. Bolton, whom a reporter found at the store, 264 Fuiton Street, con- tinued to work as he talked. g **1 have been in this business long enough to see many proprietary articles rise and fall* he said, 1 have never stopped to analyze the reasons for the failures. As for the euccesses, merit and good manuge- ment account for them ; merit chiefly. *Take Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Resolvent, for example. Inour stores we have handled them for years, and the sales have gone on jucreasing right along despite lively and persistent competition. * There are thonsands, yes, tens of thousands of people in’ this good borough of Brooklyn, who consider them standard household articles, as thoroughly to be depended on as to-morrow's sunrise. In my judgment, the hold of Cuticura Remedies upon the public confidence is explainable upon one ground only ; that they r.\alf; do all they are said to do It they failed to cure eczemas, rashes and other torturing, disfigur- ing skin, scalp and blood humors, or if the Soap and Ointment did not possess delicate emolient properties especially fitting them for toilet THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SUNDAY MARCH 1 1903 purposes, for preserving, purifyi and beautifying the skin, sfalp.ymnis and hands, the facts would have been known long ago, and Cuticura would have gone to the grave-yards ©of medicinal failures, ““As a matter of fact, Cuticura remedies are very much alive. Of course our salesmen do not ask ques- tions of people who come to buy s them, but from the ever growing de- .mand 1 assume that the good work of Caticura has been spread through the community by word of mouth, aad with all due respect to the news- flptrn, that is the geut advertising n the world. “Time and competition are the hardest tests, and Cuticura has with- stood them both. Mothers use the Boap and Ointment to relieve their tormented babies, whose tender skins itch and burn with eruptions as unsightly as they are agonizing, because it is not only effective in the highest degree, but it is pure, sweet and wholesome. “Grown up e who buy the réemedies for their personal use, swear by them, I know. Cuticura Soap 1s the most po,{:m of skin s, and its sale probably exceeds that of all other skin soaps combined. “We have sold at retail over 95,000 worth of Cutieura Soap, Oint- ment gnd Resolvent this year, and huve as yet not heard one word of complaint. ‘I have no more interest in Cuti- cura than in other things we sell, but since you ask my opinion, I five it as freely on (.h{u subject as would on any other.” The Four Changes of Seasons No More Marked Than the Four Great Changes in Our Store.

Tenn., this morning about 2 o'clock The disaster was caused by spreading rails. Three deaths are reported so far and twenty-four are Injured. The dead: JOHN RIBB, Knoxville, engineer. A. J. TUCKER, Newport, mail clerk ALFRED BEST, Knoxville, colored por- ter. Feb. 28.—The fast senger, from Chat- Conches Are Telescoped. The accident occurred on a steep embank- bankment over which the train was precipl- tated. The locomotive went within thirty feet of the river. Four of the coaches were telescoped and partially piled upon the en- glne. The coaches were burned outright. The Cincinnati Southern train from Chat- tanooga was following the ill-fated tratn, baving come via Knoxville on account of damage to tracks between Chattanooga and Harriman last night. This train was await- ing orders at Louden when it was advised of the wreck. The engine was at once run up to the scene of the disaster, and by pulling two of the Trear sleepers back on the track and away from the wreckage succeeded in saving them from the fire. A wrecking train, with physiclans and rallroad officials, left this city immediately. Landslides Cause Accident. It is stated that the wreck was caused by two landslides. In the first it is thought a big boulder came down the side of a bluff and fell on the tracks. These landelides | spread the track and when the locomotive struck the boulder it was thrown from the ties and down the embankment. Sev- eral coaches followed. The scene of the wreck is between Loudon and Lenon City, Tenn., where the railroad parallels the Tennessee river for a considerable distance. The construction of the road at this point was a sensational engineering feat, and it is the most unfavorable place for a wreck. Drink Whisky. Just before the engineer died a com- rade tried to have him drink a little whisky in the hope of extending his life. The en- gineer refused, saying: “I have never touched it, and don't ex- pect to begin to drink it now. I am going to die, so go look after the women and children in the coaches.” He expired a few minutes later. The Chicago and Florida limited of the Cincinnati Southern road, one of the finest trains in the country, running from Jack- sonville to Chicago, was but a short time ahead of the wrecked train. The Chi- cago flyer, which left Chattanooga ahead of Bibb's train, was compelled to run to Harriman by way of Knoxville, instead of over its own line for the reason stated above. Had this train been wrecked the loss of life would have been much greater, as it always carries a long list of passengers and runs on fast time. Six Seriously Imjured. BROWNSVILLE, Pa., Feb. 28.—8ix per- sons were seriously injured and a number slightly hurt in a collision betweéen a local passenger train and a light engine on the Monongahela division of the Penn- sylvania railroad at the junction here to- day. One Killed and Several Hurt. BATTLE CREEK, Mich,, Feb. 28.—As a result of the derailment of Grand Trunk westbound limited express No. § at the South Jefferson avenue crossing just before noon today, one man was instantly killed, one was fatally injured and several were serfously hurt. Dead: BLISS U. PARKER, Battle Creek. Seriously injured: Brakeman George Cowles, Battle Creek, skull crushed; will dfe. Flagman Alex Dihon, leg broken. The train w running fifteen miles an hour when the derallment oc- curred. A switch opened just after the engine and baggage carp had crossed, throwing the two day coaches and two sleepers on & sidetrack. The first day coach left the ralls and swept broadside across Jefferson avenue, tearing down poles and the watchman's shanty and bringing a perfect network of wires about the wreck- age. Flagman Dixon was standing in the street talking to Parker and both of them were swept under the car. Parker was instantly killed. The car was crowded with pas gers, all of whom escaped with slight injuries and bruises. The wrecked coach took fire and the fire department had to be called to extinguish the flames. Three Die in New York Wreeck. SYRACUSE, N. Y., Feb. 28.—The south- western limited on the New York Central, westbound, was wrecked in the Bast Syra- cuse yards tonight in collision with freight cars and three trainmen lost their lives. The dead: CHARLES BABCOCK, conductor, J. B. KEELER, brakeman. J. D. GOURLEY, brakeman. Three other trainmen were severely in- jured. All were from Albany. They were asleep in a caboose in the freight yards. Freight cars being shifted on the same track struck the caboose, which jumped the switeh and slid along another track, lodg- ing across the main westbound passenger track. Here the southwestern at full speed struck it. The engine toppled over and killed the men inside, The engineer and firemen stuck to their posts and were rescued from the wreek. The porter in the buffet car had his left torn off. A number of passengers were shaken up, but none was severly hurt. OPENS NEW DINING ROOM ve Particularly Refases to It rich and beautiful surroundings add to the pleasure of dining—and with civilized man they assuredly do—then guests at the Tler Grand hotel bave spectal cause to con- gratulate themselves. For the new dining room, extending for 100 feet along the east side on the main floor, is undoubtedly the most magnificently furnished and appointed apagtment of its kind in (he west. For several weeks it was turned over to scores | of workmen, who succeeded admtirably in{ the task assigned them.

Several changes have been made elsewhere in the hotel in order to make good Proprietor Rome Miller's declaration thai the service and everything #lse in con nection vith the new dining room may be unsurpaesed in the west. FOR USE IN CASE OF WRECK Mrs. Ballington Booth W ™ Hauipped with Surgtoal Appurtenances, Mrs. Ballington Booth of the Volunteers of America, being an extensive traveler and sensitive to the danger of the wounded and suffering of those who are maimed in the numerous railroad accidents, has ad- dressed the following letter to the presi dents of all the large railroads: NEW YORK, Feb, 28.—Dear 8ir: In view of the serious accidents which have been agitating the public and the painful details which have aroused so rauch humane sym- pathy, | trust the suggestion contained in this letter will receiva some consideration, and, if found practical, may be adopted by your road. I am a very extensive traveler, spending many days and nights of every month upon the road, and therefore, any questign which affects the life or comfort of p lengers or of the brave men “ahead" comes very closely home to me. I have noticed in reading of some of the recent railroad wrecks, as 4lso many in the past, that survivors have had to witness the agony of fatally injured victims, who, infoned inextricably beneath the wreckage, have pleaded for the rellef of death whilé uncontrollable flames have scorched or con- sumed them. Especlally harrowing is the thought of the brave engineer, held beneath the iron wreckage of his locomotive, scalded by steam, and yet awfully dlive to every torture of slow coming death. If a dumb animal was seen in similur circumstances we would in ntly end its misery with a swift blow or merciful shot. This is not permissible when the sufferet is a human being whose highly organized nervous sys- tem 1g capable of still greater suffering. As I have glanced at the little giass ¢ holding the saw and hatchet for use in omergency I have asked myself why the raflroad companies have so far overlooked another precaution which might save life and lessen suffering. Why not equip every trsin, or better still, ‘the conductor of eacn (rain, with a small case containing chloroform, ether, Imulants, bandages, lotions for ' bruises and_antiseptic solutions for the washing of wounds. These could be packed in a very small case and would represent no yery costly outlay. Accidents often occur far from towns and many preclous mo- ments, it not hours, when lives could be saved, are of necessity lost for the want of these necessary materials, Would it not be an_unspeakable comfort to bystanders, as well as the sufferers, if those dying in agony could be rendered unconscious by a few breaths of a merciful anaesthetic, to say nothing of the prompt aid which couid be rendered to those who might yet be eaved. This is not the idle suggestion of a mo- ment, but comes from one who has watched suffering and to whom the rhythm of the Wheels is the most familiar of sounds. Be- Jieve me, very cordially yours, PN R MAUD B. BOOTH. DANISH ASSOCIATION BALL Four Hundred Omaha Danes in Faney Costume at Washington Hall. se Four hundred Omaha Danes decked them- selves in divers unique and Interesting costumes and attended the thirty-second annual masquerade ball of the Danish asso- ciation at Washington hall last night. Like all its predecessors, the affalr was a success in cvery way. The hall was elab- orately decorated with festoons of red, white and blue, and with strings of col ored lights; the dancers wore dlsgulses that were of bewildering color and the music from a dozen pleces furnished the temptation that kept the crowd on the polished floor till a late hour. Unmasking was Dot till 11:30, and till then the sight during the dances was artistic indeed, as no one not enmasque was allowed upon the floor till that hour. It was a strange collection of races and ages that intermingled. A Japanese girl In flowing, flowered kimona, held her gay para- sol over the head of a rakish Don Juan as they swayed tq the waltz. Grave-faced George Washington clasped to his bosom as black a Topsy as ever rolled a chalky eye. Then there were fays and faunse, clowns and nurses, matadors, sailors, sun- flower girls, Lydia Pinkhams in Mother Hubbards and Robert Mantells with fenc- ing folls. As a distinguishing mark the members of the committees in charge were in colo- nial costume strictly, all purple and perl- wig. They were: O. Trane, master of ceremonies; John Kyhl, A. Schouboe, Theo- bald Kell and Niels Svengaard, floor com- mittee. EA Petersen, Charles Sorensen and N. P. Madsen, reception committee. Hans | Neble, Fred Brodegaard and R. Tofteman- Frederiksen, arrangement committee. The Threat of Grip. (From the New York Herald.) “The increased mortality of the last three weeks trom lung affections following attacks of grip, emphasizes more than ever the necessity for nursing an initiatory cold. “The Herald, always anxious concerning the public health, has repeatedly called a tention to the dangers of undue exposure during {nclement weather and now reiter- ates the injunction with still more earn- estness in view of present conditions. “Most of the fatal cases of pneumonia at | this time of the year are due to the lack of timely treatment of what appears to be a simple attack of bronchial ecatarrh. The taking of the stitch in time is at the bot- tom of all questions of prevention wi other more serious ones lyins .2 wait for solu- | tlon. “It is well to take into account in such | connection that February and March are generally considéred the most fatal months for pneumonta, especially when influenza is prevailing even in mild epldemic form. “Thus far we have escaped a visitation of a virulent form of the latter malady but there is abundance of time and op- portunity for the development of severe epidemic, with the usual aftermath of alarming mortality “The effective treatment of an ordlanry cold is a matter of & day or two agalnst a possible subsequent sickness for weeks ““The indications of a severe attack of influenza are headache, chilliness, general muscular pains, fever, sore throat, cough and systemic lassitude. When these show themselves no time is to be lost and the patient should give'up work at once and promptly place himself under proper medi- cal care.” There is no danger whatever of any se- rious consequences from an attack of the grip when Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy Is used, ak-it counteracts any tendency to- ward pneumonia. This fact has been abundantly proven in many thousands of cases during the epidemics of the past few years. Sights Are Costly. James Dufack, who has been working on a'farm near s Blufts, Neb., c Omaha Thursday eveing and proce @ec the sights of the city. In a bundana handkerchier he carried a roll of bills mounting to £200.

One feature of the new dining room, aside from its particularly rich furnishings, missing. Dufack informed the police that he had placed his trousers, which con- {ained the money, beneath his pillow before he retired, and that he must have been robbed while he slept.

Weak and unhealthy kidneys are respon- elble for more sickness and suffering than any other disease, and if permitted to continue much suffering with fatal results are eure to follow. Kidney trouble irritates he nerves, inakces you dizzy, restless, sleep- less and irritable; makes you pass water often during the day and obliges you to get up many times during the night. Unhealthy kidneys cause rheumatism, gravel, catarrh of the bladder, pain or dull ache in the back, joints or muscles; makes your head and back ache, causes indigestion, stomach and liver trouble, you get a sallow, yellow (Swamp-Root 1a pleasant to take). | mutters all the time and opinton is that he complexion, makes you feel as though you had heart trouble; you may have plenty of ambition, but no strength; get weak and waste away.
