There is only one way to cure Deafness
and that is by consutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eu--
stachian Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entire

less the inflammation can be be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever;nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an infiam-
ed condition of the mucous rurfaces.

been bad for some time and he Is now a
very sick man; indeed he has been In no
condition TO work during several months
past.
Those who have kept close watch Of
him In Washington have remarked that
since the beginning OF the year he has
been absent from the state department
more days than he has attended there.
and when he did go to the department
his stay was very short. lie has done
most OF his work during the past four or
five months In the privacy Of his own
house, and furthermore, he has done it
either lying In bed or rocking In an easy
chair propped up all aroun with

ATTEMPT TO WRECK A TRAIN
Dynamite Placed Upon the Traek-A
Narrow Escape

Noito"
New York, May 14-A dastardly at
tempt was made on Monday night to
wreck the Pacific express on the West
Shore railway. A little delay in starting
the train saved the passengers from what
would have been an instant and terrible
death.
On account of the delay to the Pacific
express the Hayerstraw local pulled ont
OF Weehawken ahead of It, and had
reached a point a little beyond Little
Ferry when an explosion occurred. The
train consisted of an engine and two cars
ana the only damage Inflicted was the
breaking OF the car windows.
After the train was stopped the train
hands went back and found about thre )
feet OF the track torn up completely and a
hole blown out of the earth beneath 1t. II
was "a wonder that the local passed over IL
safely. The Pacific express, which was
tagged, switched around the torn track
and then proceeded on its way.
1t Is supposed that the explosion was
caused by train wreckers, who placed a
dynamite cartridge on the track, hoping to
throw the express into the cut Just ahead
and rob 1t, The express Is always loaded
with money and valuables for the west,
and on Monday night IL had about 81, 900
on board.
Had the express not been DELAYED, IL
would have surely been thrown into the
cut, as all Of the long line OF cars would
not have passed safely over the torn-out
track as the shorter local did
Although detectives are working on the
case, there has been an attempt on the
part OF the railroad officials TO hush up

lined soldiers with disorganlzed mob,
and mainly supported by Millionaire Ed

steamers. do not believe the rebellion
will last sixty DAYS longer. The govern
