One of the central figures in the riots Every old sore exists because of a polluted condition of the bloodThia vital fluid is infected with some germ or old taint, or perhaps has been left in an unhealthy condition from a long Spell of sickness, or the trouble may be inherited.

The poisonous germs and matter with which the blood is Bat- urated force an outlet on the face, arms, legs or other part of the body and form a sore or ulcer. This being continually fed by a polluted blood supply, grows red and angry, festers and eats into the surrounding flesh until it becomes what is very aptly termed an "old sore." The relief produced by external treatment is only temporary. The only treatment that can do any real good is a blood purifier that goes to the very root of the trouble and removes the cause, and for this purpose nothing equals S. S. S.

It drives out from the circulation all morbid matter and germs, even reaching down to hereditary taints, and by cleansing the blood heals old sores permanently, S. S.

He never rode or stalked back. "No, we haven't got that thief," said one of the members last night, in harking back two years to that celebrated case where a horse thief eluded the Dedham blueooats, "but it is some satisfaction to know that we still have the organization intact." The strongest parts' of the organization now are the treasury and the membership. Nearly all the prominent Ded-homites who own horses possess membership, in the society, and some have memberships who have no horses. But the traditions are still there, likewise a horse thief now and then. The requirements or membership are simple, anybody being eligible who can beg, borrow or in any other way honestly acquire $1 with which to enrich the treasury.

The funds are deposited in a Dedham hank, and they amount to about $1,500. The sum total of the treasury is but a bagatelle to the wealth of some of the members of the society. Joshua Crane, J. Eugene Cochrane, Allan Forbes, E. Vernon Cormerals, Ferdinand F.

Favor and, William E. Pa-tenaude, none of whom is quite unknown' to fame, constitute the present riders of the organization. It was their bounden duty to set forth on the trial of the wretch who failed to return Mr. Scarry's rig. When they struck a scent two years ago they were in automobiles part of the time.

The chief of police was part of the serried forces, and he will probably take a hand ia the hunt if it is decided finally that there is any chance of running the horse borrower to earth. The stolen animal is a black mare, and she wore a nickel-plated harness. 9he was hitched to a canopy top beach wagon which Mr. Scarry described to the police as being lined with gray and having rubber tires. The man who is wanted by the six riders is described as a "dark-complexioned" individual, wjth a mustache.

He weighs about one hundred and sixty pounds, is forty-eight or fifty years old; stands five feet eight inches, and was dressed in a dark gray suit. 1 CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA. Two Hundred and Fifty Casesof Giant Powder Explode Shaking Mountain. Birmingham, August A special from Bessemer says that during a thunder storm today lightning struck the powder ma'gazine of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad Company, located on the highest point of Bed Mountain, near Fossill mines, four and a half miles from Bessemer. Two hundred and fifty cases of (riant blasting powder stored in the magazine exploded, shaking the mountain, for miles and almost completely wrecking the buildings at the Fossil 'mines.

The new barns of the mines were destroyed and the window panes, smashed for miles, many in Bessemer being broken. Two men "were hurt by flying glass, but not seriously. The damage done is estimated at No one was near the magazine when it exploded. Animal Stopped In Flight from Indians Until Owner Could Remount and Escape. Portland, Oregon, August G.

W. N. Taylor, a pioneer of 1833, is one of the few men living who was in the battle with the Umatilla and' Walla Walla tribes near Goldcndale in April, 1850, in which Captain A. J. JTombroe, or" Company li, Indian volunteers, was killed.

History has been mute on the battle and much conflicting data has been given the historical society on the fight. Mr. Taylor, who is attending a pioneer reunion, kept a record of the campaign and among other tilings has written au account of the Goldcndiilo fight. From the account it appears that Captain with two companions, left the camp on the morning of April 10, 1850. to scout the hills half a mile away.

While the party was passing up a divide they were surrounded by a party of 300 Indians, and. Hcmbree was killed. Ilembree was riding mule at the time, and the beast refused to retreat at the critical moment, llembree's companion was also mounted on a stubborn mule and left the animal in the thick of the fight. While he was running down the mountain the beast was suddenly stung by a bullet, faced down the slope and raced away from the Indians until he came opposite his rider, when he Btoppcd until he was mounted and then raced to camp, carrying his rider in safely. Hcmbree was stripped and scalped before the company could reach him, and the.

battle was the beginning of. the campaign that Hvas later carried on by the regular soldiers. Dummy Railway Accident. London, August 25. A skilful display 'was (riven at Greenford yesterday by detachments of the Great Western Railway Ambulance Corps.

A train Conveying more than 150 men from different parts of the line was drawn nn on siding, which had lieen arranged to resemble the scene of a railway accident. Dummy victims, each labelled to indicate the nature of his injury, were rescued from perilous positions by the railway ambulance men, who Administered first aid. It was not like that in the olden days in dear old Dedham town, In the limping, scrimping olden days, when they ran a horse thief down. Then each man rode off on his fastest horse, and' he rode both fast and far, But now the rider hunts the thief in a chugging motor car, Dedham Ditties by the Boston Herald. Boston, August 13.

The hue and cry has been raised in Dedham. A horse thief is supposed to be abroad. The old society in. Dedham for apprehending horse theives has stirred, rubbed its sleepy eyes and sat up to take notice, and a half dozen wealthy riders are scouring Dedham and vicinage for a dark man who had forgotten to return a horse and carriage hired-last Saturday from John Scarry's livery stable. In the hazy past, now about one hundred years in the rear, the society was formed by horse owners of Dedham and vicinity for protection against horse thieves.

It was the prerogative of every member cf the society iii Dedham for Apprehending Horse Thieves to call on his society brethren for aid in running down any man who had stolen a horse. The old society wasn't very active at times, but it found enough to give it cause for continuing its being, and not a few horse thieves were apprehended by the organization of the long name. The organization was one of necessity in the early days of the commonweaHli. Today it is something o. a fad.

It is, however, still more or less true to the moss-covered conditions of the days in young Dedham, and when the half-dozen riders of the society go out on their grim hunt today they will have behind them those hoary traditions, and under them, probably, motor cars, which will represent more monej than in the olden days all the horses in Dedham would have brought. Some fifty year's ago, it was said in Dedham last night, a man stole a horse in the town, and the riders then promptly got after him. Whether they got him not the mouth of member available last night saith not. Two years ago another horse thief stalked into the Pttsburg, August 25. No longer is it necessary for a man to go to bed at night in fear and trembling lest burglars may break in and carry off his valuable John C.

Hood, of Wilkinsburg, is the inventor of a contrivance which talks yes, actually talks and in calls up the police station when a burglar tries to get into the house and tells the men at the other end of the telephone to -please hurry aiong wtih the wagon and take the robbers away. Mr. Hood is now forming a company, and expects to place his invention on the market as soon as it can be manufactured. This is how it works. When the burglar forces a door, window or other opening where the device is plated, the machine, which is.

'worked Dy electricity, is set in motion and a phonograph which is located in the garret, where the connection between the' phone wire and the wire connected with the burglar alarm has been made, calls central and asks in plain English for the police station. When connection with the police station has been secured the phonograph informs the police as to the street and number of the house that is being robbed and repeats the information as long as the receiver is off the hook. InntLt Coining to the United States at fifteen years of ege, he gained a good knowledge of English and drifted into Mexico. There he joined the Mexican regular army, and now, at forty-five years, of age, is known as one of the most intrepid soldiers the republic has. It has been claimed that Kasterlitzky Was trained in the United States army, but officers of the department oi the Colorado say that he was never in the armv; His love of perioral liberty and his instincts as a soldier of fortune were developed here.

Colonel. Kasterlitzky is a tall, wiry, sffongly knit man, trained In all the arts of his calling and one of the best shots in the Mexican army. He is probably the best man in that country to cnpe with a mob. On a trip to Mexico some years ago tli editor of the Reveille had the nlea- sure of meeting and getting well ac- wren uuonei mmciio lvasrer-lltzky and also of hearing many interesting stories related nt him. The colonel, who is a Pole of noble blood, to the United States at an early ge and enlisted in the regular army.

While stationed at 1 Paso, so Ha ftf nr one fit ntrnrtc niricer nf fcthe army for a' fancied insult. Knowing the severe punishment which would be visited on him he fled across the Rio Urnude into Mexico. He found it impossible to get a commission in the Mexican army and a the privates in that are recruited from the criminal classes he could hardly enlist. Knowing all about horses, he was finally attached to the army in the rapacity of a horseshoer. When on a cam--palgn in- Sinoa his company was attacked by a band of Yaqui Indians.

The commanding officer of the Mexicans ordered ft masterly retreat. The' horseshoer was mounted on a mule, which with true obstinacy, refused to retreat, but broke into a gallop, headed twoaid the enemy. Kasterlitzky could not check his -stced so he drew a pistol and shouted for the Mexican soldiers to follow him. They did so and the enemy was put to flight. For this act of involuntary valor Kasterlitzky was made an officer and has steadily advanced until he is now a colonel.

Once at Magdalena, in the state of So- nora, where the colonel was iii command of the barracks, he entertained an American friend, i Thn next morning, while dressing the visitor heard some gun shots. When he met his host at breakfast he asked the cause of the firit and the colonel told him he had just had three soldiers shot. He was nked what they were charged with and replied: "itothing in particular. We just shot then to keep up discipline." CARICATURIST SEM WORRIES SOCIETY London, August 25. Sem, a well-known French caricaturist, is over here and has made his first inspection of British society types at Ascot.

Ho con siders England aristocracy furnishes a rich field for caricature. "What types! What types!" said Sem exultingly. "But what nice looking types, all the same!" It appears that Sir Ernest Cassel has a holy fear of being caricatured and that the very sight of the small penciller sends bim dying away in hot haste. 168 South Elm Street GREENSBORO N.

Wilson, Leslie Wilmoth, Ira Kernoldle and Luther Proctor, all boys of about 15 years of age, who have heretofore figured in police circles, were locked up by Officer Jones at a late hour last night.

The boys have been giving the night watchman at the Benbow trouble for several weejes, and were making use of the hotel 'bus and stables as their regular lodging place. They have been ordered away a number of times and the police had warned them that they would be arrested if they continued 'to loaf around the hotel. Last night they were found in the1 barn by the watchman, who reported the case to the police, with the result that the entire crowd was locked up. They will be given a hearing tomorrow afternoon. MAN "KILLED" IN WAR 51 You're Dead." Says War Department; "Then Pay My Widow." Says Brady.

New York, 'August 25 "If am dead," said Mr. Brady, "then it is up to the government to pension' my widow." In 1861 something told John Brady, now living at Corona, L. that he was wanted to do some fighting, and he enlisted in Company II, Eighth Volunteer Infantry. He was mustered out in 1803 a little battered and shot up, but still very much alive. somehow it got on the records that Brady had been killed in battle, and when the soldiers' monument was erected at Gushing erected at Flushing it carried the name of John Brady.

For years Brady used to go to the monument, on Decoration Day and keep his own memory green with flowers. Brady, as he grew old, became crippled, and a short time ago he applied, to the government for a pension. He was notified that he could not get the money because he was dead. The veteran gave the matter deep thought. He saw the justice of the war department's contention that if he died a hero's death, he clearly was not entitled to aid.

Finally a happy thought struck hiin. At his behest his wife has applied for a widow's pension, on the ground and in the conviction that the singular case is up to the government somehow. The only thing that worries Brady now is that if his widow gets the pension the view might be token that he is not the husband of his widow. DUO DOWN NEARLY A MILE FOR THIS BIT OF GOLD.

Today Hinchanich walked to the river and threw himself off a sand flat. David Linderman, watchman on the flat, jumped after him, and after a battle pulled him out. Within a few minutes Hinchanich again leaped into the water. Again Linderman went after him and fought him to shore. By this time Linderman sank down, exhausted, and Hinchanich leaped in a third time and drowned before help could reach hiin.
