BAD COMPLEXION.
The skin is the seat of an almost end- ' ^
less variety of diseases. They are known i
by various names, but are all due to the a:
same cause, acid and other poisons in
the blood that irritate and interfere with P
the proper action of the skin. tr
To have a smooth, soft skin, free from
all eruptions, the blood must be kept pure
and healthy. The many preparations of tl
arsenic and potash and the large number
of face powders and lotions generally a
used in this class of diseases cover up tl
for a short time, but cannot remove per

Mr. H, T. Shobe, 2704 Lucas Avenue, St. Louis, tl
I Mo., says: "My daughter was afflicted for years
with a disfiguring eruption on her face, which tl
resisted all treatment. She was taken to two
celebrated health springs, but received no bene- g]
fit. Many medicines were prescribed, but without
result, until we decided to try S. S. S., and by J
the time the first bottle was finished the eruption
began to disappear. A dozen bottles cured her jjj
completely and left her skin perfectly smooth.

S. S. S. is a positive, unfailing cure for ' oi
the worst forms of skin troubles. It is ?
the greatest of all blood purifiers, and the '
only one guaranteed purely vegetable. j le

Office of the Adjutant General, ai

Manila, P. I, July 24,1901.
To the Editor of the Dispatch: ^
Please allow me space in your
columns to address you and my
friends once more. I have just received
two copies of the dear old
Dispatch and it gives me a pleasure
to read it and I anxiously await its
appearance on all occasions. I see
in the Dispatch of May 15th that
Corporal Heber Rawl is at home

6?
is all 0. K , to be donned in a soldier's
... ,, d(
suit and to nave tne reputation 01 Deing
a "patriotic soldier." Well, yes,
but excuse me from any more of it.
This is the first thiDg I ever got into cc
that I could not get out of when I ^
wanted to, and if I were in the Lord's J*
country I thiDk old "Will" is sharp e
cl
enough to get out of this, but alas, ^
it is about 9000 miles "from that so01
journ. But, then, as the little FilipiDo
Senorita's say, "Pocatiempo", I will ^
be home, but not donned in a soldier's
ai
suit, for I expect to throw that away
just as soon as I strike Frisco or New
York, and buy me a suit of civilian
clothes. Now the army is all right ^
for some people and it is a good ^
home for those that like it, but ex- ^
cuse me. It is quite an easy matter j?
to soldier over here now and all a
fellow has to do is think about the
t:me when he will get home and ^

have five months to serve from today,
and ere this letter is printed in the
Dispatch I will have only four ^
months to serve, so you see friends ^
my courting days will soon be on j
again. We soldiers have a new soDg
over here: "There awaits a girl at
home for me," and it is a right good ^
song, providing some one else does n
not catch her before I get back. G

Buffalo, September, G.?President j
McKinley was shot and seriously
wounded by a would-be assassin
while holding a reception in the
Temple of Music at the Pan-American
Exposition a few minutes after 4
o'clock this afternoon One shot took
effect in the right breast; the other

a serious nature, aDd the bullet has j
been extracted. The latter pierced
the abdominal wall, aDd has not been
located.
It was shortly after 4 p. m., when
one of the throDg which surrounded
the Presidential party, a medium
sized man of ordinary appearance and j i
plainly dressed in black, approached ;
as if to greet the President. Both
Private Secretary Cartelyou and
President Milburn, of the Exposition,
noticed that the man's hand was [ 1
nmnlU/. J < % MM
awatutu m a uauuago ui uauuncichief.
Keports of bystanders differ
as to his hand. He worked his way
amid the stream of people up the
edge of the disc until he was witbiD
two feet of the President. 1
Mr. McKinley smiled, bowed and 1
extended his hand in that spirit of
geniality the American people so well
know, when suddenly the sharp crack
of a revolver rang out loud and clear
above the hum of voices, shuffling of 1
myriad feet and vibrating waves of 1
applause that ever and anon swept i ;
here and there over the assemblage, j 1
There wa3 an instant of almost j
complete silence. The President j
stood stock still, a look of hesitancy, j
almost of bewilderment, on his face.
Then he retreated a step while a pallor
began to steal over his features.
The multitude, only partially aware
that eomethiDg serious had happened,
paused in surprise, while necks were
craned and all eyes turned as one toward
the rostum, where a great tragedy
was being enacted.
After the first shock of the assas
sin's shots, he retreated a step then j
as the detectives leaped upon his as- j
sailant he turned, walked steadily to j
a chair and seated himself, at the
same time removing hi3 hat and bow- I
ing his head in his hands.
In an instant Secretary Cortelyou
and President Milburn were at his
side. His coat was hurriedly opened,
the President meanwhile admonishing
those about him to remain calm
and telling them not to be alarmed, j
"But you are wounded," cried his j
Secretary, "let me examine!"
"No, I think not," answered the I
President. "I am not badly hurt, I j
assure you."
Nevertheless his outer garments
were hastily loosened and when a
lTlC&ilIJ?^ SlIUilLLl ui UI1UJ5UU waa occu
to wind its way down bis breast, 1
spreading its tell tale slain over the j
white surface of the linen their worst
fears were confirmed.
As soon as the crowd in the Temple
of Music had been dispersed suf- :
ficiently the President was removed j
in the automobile ambulance and I
taken to the exposition hospital,
where an examination was made.
The best medical skill was summoned :
and within a brief period several of j
Buffalo's best known practitioners
were at the patient's side.
j EXAMINE THE WOUNDS.
The President retained the full ex- j
j ercise of his faculties until placed on :
the operating table and subjected to i
, an anaesthetic. Upon the first ex- j
! amination it was ascertained that |
one bullet had taken effect in the
J right breast just below the nipple,
i causing a comparatively harmless
i wound. The other took effect in the
i abdomen, about four inches below !
the left nipple, four inches to the :
j left of the navel and about cn a level 1
I with it.

Then came a commotion. "With i
! '
i the leap of a tiger three men threw !

j themselves iorwara as wuu uue iuj- ,
j pulse and sprang toward the would- j
i be assassin. Two of them were

j it was to guard against just such a
i calamity as had here befallen the
: President aud the nation. The third j
was a bystander, a negro, who had !
only an instant previously grasped
I in his dusky palm the hand of the
1 President. As one man the trio 1

_ ?burled
themselves upon the Preei- ,
dent's assassin. In a twinkling be j
was borne to the ground, bis weapon j
, i
was wrested frcm his grasp and |
strong arms piDioDed him down.
Then the multitude which throDged
the edifice began to come to a realiziDg
sense of the awfulness of the j
scene of which they had been unwil- I
ling witnesses.
The President's assailant in the
meantime had been hustled to the
rear of the building by exposition j
guards where he was held while the '
building was cleared and later he
was turned over to Superintendent j
Bull, of the Buffalo police depart- j
ment, who took the prisoner to No
13 police station and afterward to
police headquarters.
In a few minutes the crowd had j
r*rnwn from tens to hundreds and 1
D ?
these in turn quickly swelled to i
thousands until the street was com- j
pletely blocked with a mass of hu- j
manity. Id was at this juncture that
some one raised the cry of ''Lynch
Him!" like a flash the cry was taken I
up and the whole crowd, as if ignited
by the single match thus applied, |
re-echoed the cry, "Lynch him P
!;HaDg him P closer the crowd surg- j
ed forward. Denser the crowd be- ;
came as new arrivals swelled each |
moment the swajing multitude, j
The situation was becoming critical
when suddenly the big doors were j
SuDg open and a squad of reserves !
arrived with solid front, drove the
crowd back from the curb, then j
across the street and then gradually
? > ; *1 t !
succeeded in aisperBmg mem num i
about the entrance to the station.
By this there was probably 50,000
people assembled in the vicinity of i
Pearl, Senrca, Erie streets and the ;
terrace. The crowd was so great \
that it became necessary to rope cfY I
the entire street in front of police !
headquarters and at a late hour '
tonight the police were still patrollirg
in the streets in the neighborhood
in squads of three or four.

What a Dreadful Thing
It is to wake up in the night suffering
from cholera morbus, and yet
cases of t~is kind are very common.
The trouble, however, will never become
serious if you keep a bottle of
Pain-Killer at hand, for it is a remedy
that never fails to cure cholera,
cramps, diarrhcea or dysentery.
Avoid substitutes, there is but one
Pain-Killer, Perry Davis". Price 25c.
