Deafness Can't BE- Cured

by local applications. as they cannot
reach the deceased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infl4med condi-
ton of the mucous lining of the Eustach-
Ian tube. When this tube gets intismed
you have a rum bling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed
deafness is the result, and unless the i'm
hammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be DESTROYED forever; nine
cases out Of ~ are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an iufamed condi,
ton of the mucous surface.

The Police stoned-MiIitary Called
Out - Several Persons serfoasly
Hurt.
LONDON, April lathe streets of Brad
ford were in a ferment throughout the
afternoon. At o'clock the crowd grew
rapidly despite the police efforts to dis
perse it. The police were met with show
ers of stones. The military were again
called out and regular riot followed.
Windows were smashed, lamps were extin-
guished and an organized rush was made to
break the police ranks and capture the
place of meeting. This effort, however,
was Intellectual. A score of arrests were
made. All the prisoners had gashes on
their heads from stones or police batons,
and many police were injured, but no
one had bayonet wounds, The rioters
were dispersed with difficulty by incessant
marching and counter-marching on the
roads converging at the town hall square.
Detective Martin Gale received six cuts on
the head and his horse was killed under
him by q stab.

The Decay of Nevada.

From San Francisco Letter.I
Talk about deserted mining towns, or
rather of deserted oil towns back in Penn
sylvania, why some of the old-time cities
OF Nevada are to-day almost forgotten.
In Austin, portions of the main street,
which in years past were the scenes Of
large business transactions and mining ex-
elements, have in the past three years alb
solutely grown up with sage brush.
When the moon rises an observer would
be led to believe that here and there large
stores with stone fronts, once occupied by
prosperous merchants, were brilliantly
lighted, only to find on passing that the
roofs of the buildings have fallen, and the
rays of the moon CLEAN through the still
intact doors across the Swallowed sidewalks
with sepulchral effect.

Note Not Forwarded Yet.
WASHINGTON, April 13.-But two facts
could be added to-day to the public stock
of information respecting the diplomatic
ENHANCEMENT with Italy. One of these
was that the state department has not re-
ceived any intimation from the Italian
government that their last note must be
answered before given date. Nor is such
an intimation expected, for the department.

ably, and it would be a very unusual
course for government engaged in diplo-
matte negotiation with another to question
the motives upon which the correspondence
proceeded. The second fact is that Secretary
Blaine's answer to the Marquis di Rudini's
last note has not yet been forwarded. 1t
was probably the secretary's purpose to
accompany this reply with an official state
ment touching the nationality of the New
Orleans victims and other correlative facts
that were expected from the officials of
the department of justice in New Orleans
These reports have not yet reached Wash
ington. When they are received great
care must be exercised in reducing the
facts contained in them to form useful
for diplomatic use, so that unless the sec
rotary is prepared to send his letter with
out these facts it is not likely to go for
ward Immediately.

WORK OF BAD INDIANS.
Two Emigrants Killed by blood.
thirsty Redskins - An Uprising
Feared.
BLAcKFEET, Idaho, Arpil ia sensa-
ton was caused here this afternoon by the
announcement that party of Indians had
killed two emigrants at the latter's camp
at water tank about two miles from here.
The bodies were found at the tank and a
number of Indians were seen making for
the hills to the north. An uprising is
feared. Indian Agent Fisher, who was at
Pocatello, was telegraphed for and came
up on special train. Deputy Sheriff Ross
left Immediately for the scene and took
charge of the bodies, leaving an armed
posse on guard. Business is suspended
and the citizens are up in arms. About
100 armed and mounted men have left
to demand tine surrender of the guilty In
dams. Should the Indians refuse to sur
render the murderer trouble is feared as
the posse are determined. Not an Indian
was found in the city an hour after the
affair. The governor and adJutant gen
eral have been telegraphed to in regard te
the affair.

willing to Fill Senator Edmunds'
Place If Governor Page Sees Fit to
Appoint Him.
WASHINGTON, April 13.-Secretary Proc
tor makes the following statement regard
ing his position as candidate for the SEN
ate to succeed Mr.. Edmunds:
l have been absent from Washington for
month on the business of the depart
ment and have returned in the regular
course of my trip, having simply timed my
return so as to see the president before he
leaves the city tomorrow. All rumors
that l have any present intention of re-
signing are without foundation. AS to my
business interests, I have none which
require my attention or to which should
give any considerable attention if l were
out of Office. I suppose it is unnecessa-
ry for me to say that my relations
with the president and my associates
are, as they always have been, of the most
agreeable and harmonious character. With
respect to the senatorship find, on my
return, by the receipt of letters and the
press comments from Vermont, that a
good many of my friends are anxious that
l should succeed Senator Edmunds. The
position of senator from my state has for q
good many years been somewhat unique,
and it is not and never has been, within
my memory, considered as place permit
ting any candidacy in the usual sense.
Vermont has a number of men capable and
worthy to represent her in the
senate, though it could not be hoped
that anyone could fill the place of
Senator Edmunds, whose resignation
has been received, as it must naturally
have been, with the greatest regret,
and who for twenty-four years has repre-
sented Vermont in the United States SEN
ate to the equal honor of himself and the
great advantage of the country. Should
the position be offered to me with the
hearty approval and good will of the peo-
pie of the state 1 should scarcely feel at
liberty to decline the honor and the oppor.
tunity to serve them who have so many
times showed their confidence in me. But
the senator's resignation does not take eff
feet until next November and in the mean
time Governor Page has plenty of time te
carefully weigh the matter and take sucf
action as he deems to be best for the inter
ests of the state and most in accord with
the wishes of her people.
