NEW YORK, April 12.-John 01 terding, recently liberated from an insane asylum, lies in a critical condi tion in the Harlem Hospital today, with his throat cut after a struggle with his -wife in their apartment in East 126th Street last night, in which te held her on the floor and cut both of her wTists with a raior. Police and neighbors finally battered down the door and rescued the woman. Mrs. Olberding's experience with lier husband was horrible in the ex treme. For more than ten minutes he pursued her about the apartment, brandishing the razor and at last cornered her. After he had slashed Iter wrists she feigned death and in this way probably saved her life. She will recover, but there is slight hope for the man.

CHICAGO, April 12-,The death of Josnh Russell Jones, pioneer traction magnate and diplomat,, recalls many anecdotes illustrating his confidential relations with Lincoln and Grant, who held him in high esteem. When General Grant was first talk ed of for the presidency, Lincoln tele graphed to Mr. Jones asking if he could tell him whether Grant wanted to be president. Certainly not," said Mr. Jones. who at once reported to Lincoln. He wouldn't take the office if it were offered him. So far from being a can didate, himself, I know him to be earnestly in faor of your re-election." Mr. Lincoln's countenance relaxed and he said: "My friend, you AotA know how gratifying that is to me. No man can ever tell how deep that presidential grub gnaws till he has had it him self." "One thing I remember," said Rob ert T. Lincoln, "that always struck me as a splendid example of Mr. Jones' simplicity was the fact that after he became bald he wore a wig, which, as he used to explain, was not for the purpose of amplifying his personal beauty, but to keep the flies off his head. It is a little thing, and seems even trivial perhaps, now that he is dead, but his frank" delight at having circumvented the plague of flies with a false head of hair illustrates as well as anything I know, how unaffected and lovable he was." "His ready wit always made a fa vorite wherever he was known," said General Frederick D. Grant. "I re member that once when he and my father were driving behind a very fast team the buggy was overturned. Next morning when Mr. Jones came down to breakfast he was so lame he could hardly move. When we asked if he was hurt, he said with a twinkling eye that was belied by his pain wreathed features: "'Welt, you know, when the whole of 115 pounds falls out of a buggy going 30 miles an hour and hits the grounds, something is apt to give way'."

TALK OF JEWS CMCAGOAptil" 12.r 1 H'V'I G Uirseli, whose alleged statement that the immigration of Russian Jew to this country ought to be prevented has stirred the Federation of Je'widi Oiganuations, of New York to taku issue with him. denies having made the remarks credited to hint.

WASHINGTON, April 12 The liplomatk correspondence of the Slate Department in 1906. made pub lic today, shows that the Italian gov ernment was buying yearly in Ken tucky and Tennessee about 34.000.0iXl pounds of tobacco for the need of the tobacco monoply. It was in connexion with these purchases that the Italian ambassador at Washington made a formal protest to the State Department for security against the depredations of "night riders'". In replying to the ambas sador's representations, Secretary Root suggested that the Italian gov eminent was purchasing the tobacco in its private capacity rather than as a sovereign. "In such a case the Italian govern ments," said Mr. Root, "might seek redress in our courts of justice, be cause it is a settled law of this conn try that court of justice are open to soverigns 011 the same terms as to private individuals for the protection of property rights."

It is now thoroughly established among the best medical authoriliei that eczema is purely a skin disease, due to a germ, and curable only through the skin. It is not a hlooJ disease at all; in fact, thousands of people suffer with skin disease and are perfectly healthy otherwise, and thereby prove they have no diseased blood. ' Smeary salves cannot reach the germs because they do not penetrate the skin. The only way to reach the germs is by means of a penetrating liquid. Such a liquid can be obtained by simply mixing ordinary oil of winter green with thymol, glycerine and oth er healing agents. This compound known as I). D. D. Prescription, stops the itch instantly and the cures all appear to be permanent. In fact, it took thousands of cures, case after case, before the best scientific author ities were convinced of the absolute merit of this remedy. D. D. D. Pre scription kills the germs in the itch ing skin. Its effect is seen within one minute after the first application. W; especially recommend D. D. D. Soap in connection with the treatment.
