It is difficult to realize the mighty growth of the business done under this name. From a small beginning in e simplest form, against prejudice and opposition, against monied hosts, ountless rivals, and trade indifference, Cuticura remedies have become the zreatest curatives of their time, and, n fact, of all time, for nowhere in the story of medicine is to be found an- ther apppoaching them in popularity nd ssie. % In every clime and with every peopie they have met with the same reception. e confines of the earth are the only o their growth.

Stealey, a Young Dentist, Swallows Thirty Grains of Strychnine and Dies in Spite of Efforts of the Physicians to Save His Life T SUSPECTS ARE ARRESTED Police Believe They Have the Meisel Hold- Up Men. Two of the Trio Who Robbed Saloon Are Said to Be in Jail. A o Two men who are supposed to belong to the trio who held up seven men in ths suloon of George Meisel, at Eighth and Minna streets, last Saturday night, were taken to the Central Prison last night by Detective Fitzgerald and placed in de- tinue pending further investigation by the, police. They gave the names of George Murphy and Frank Duncan, and are said to be residents of the neighborhood where The police maintain the greatest secrecy concerning the arrested men, and Cap- tain Martin professed not to know that tne men were in jail. The two prisoners were brought in heavily ironed, and every pre- caution was taken to keep their arrest a secret. They were' arrested on Mission street, near Ninth, as they were going to work. The grocery and bar of George Melsel was held up last Saturday night about 8 o'clock by three masked men, two of whom entered the barroom, while the third went in through the entrance to the grocery. There were seven men in the place at the time, and all these were compelled at the point of revolvers to hold up their hands while one of the roh- bers rifled the two cash registers, secur- After they had appropriated the booty the robbers fled along Minna street. Two of the men in the saloon pursued them and after running a couple of blocks caught up with them. For some uns countable reason they desisted from the | pursuit and allowed the robbers to es- | cape. i On the night of the hold-up Detective | Dinan was detalled on the case, and after | a desultory investigation the case was sed up to Captain Anderson of the ion station. From what he could gather Captain Anderson concluded that the robbery had been gommitted by three Wwyoung men who lived in the neighbor- | hood. The fact that they did not attempt | | to molest the men in the saloon, although tey each had considerable money and were completely at the mercy of the rob- bers, seemed to argue that the hold-up men | The pursuit and easy escape of the rob- | bers strengthened this theory, and in ad- dition there were many rumors that the | men who committed the robbery were reg- | ular customers of the place they held up and spent most of their unlawful gains in the same saloon which they had looted. Acting on this theory Captain Anderson detailed Detectives Fitzgerald and Gra- | ham on the case and after a few days’ | investigation Murphy and Duncan were arrested. It now remains for Meisel and his patrons to say whether or not these are the men who robbed him. The third member of the supposed gang has not been lecated. Henry Ahlers, who keeps a grocery at { Eighth and Harrison streets, is of the opinion that the men who burglarized his place on February 19 are the same men who held up Meisel's place. He will be given an opportunity to identify them also. “For pneumonia, grippe, pulmonary and bronchial troubles take Piso’s Cure for Con- sumption.” B e D — Large Estate Appraised. rich Volght was appraised yesterday at the robbery occurred. | ing about $100.
