With concern coursing along every

covered his hearing in nine days from a
point where it was necessary to conduct all
conversation in writing to where he under
stands ordinary conversation distinctly,
through the same treatment that Mr. George
Helman received. 1t is reported that many
others likewise afflicted are deriving benefits
very rapidly.
When it is taken into consideration that
numerous articles have appeared in the
papers from prominent business men and
others, both in and out of the city, regard
ing their remarkable success in the various
chronic diseases, together with the reputa-
tion they have gained in restoring lost hear

them, that ''their treatment is a godsend to
humanity" The Institute is the largest

FORCING THE SEASON.

Diaries for the Coming Year Already
Placed on Sale.
The expression that might be applied to
the man who would have walked down
Fifth avenue one of these sultry days last
week with winter overcoat buttoned
tightly, so far as rushing the season" is
concerned, would just fit the firm on Wood
street that has displayed in a conspicuous
portion of its window, "Diaries for 1892. !"
As pedestrian gazed at the sign yesterday,
he said:
''That is mildly suggestive that someone
is tired of the year already. I don't know
what i'll it has done Pittsburg. Why, we
have scarcely recovered from our Fourth of
July celebration and are not thinking of
engaging our Thanksgiving turkey yet for
at least two months, and they begin to talk
about diaries for the new year."

A STRIKE POSTPONED.

One Policeman Who Wouldn't Witness
Assault and Battery. p.
Yesterday two young men standing on
Fifth avenue were making their best en-

each wanted to meet the other where it was
most handy for himself and as the argument
grew they began talking pretty loud. Soon
one of them, apparently giving in, declared
loud enough to be heard across the street:
':Il strike you right here on Fifth ave-
nue."
"No, you won'tr' exclaimed a policeman
who happened to be along at that instant.

The kaiser's Action in Renewing II Ella

LONDON, March 2-The emperor's re-
newal of intimate relations with Count
Waldersee is looked upon as significant.
and the talk is that he will be appoint
ed ambassador to France. Count Wal
dersee has represented an extreme ano az
gressive military policy. He has been
charged even with desiring to bring about
war with Russia and France This charge
is unsustained by any evidence known to
the public, but there has been no doubt of
Waldersee's desire for all Germany to
stand ready armed for any event that
might occur. He was retired to the com
mand of an army corps at the very time
when the kaiser was meditating his
friendly approach toward the French peO-
pie. Now he is recalled, or about to be re-
called to the, imperial circle at the time
when all hopes of Cancellation have been
blasted. Waldersee has been in Paris,
and at an eventful period. AS German

CoNNoR BROKE THE HARMONY.
ANA Now He Has Boycott to Fight
Union Veterans ID isgusted.


HUNTINGTON, Pa, March 2-Samuel
L. Conner, well to do merchant in w, st
Huntington, has been the victim of a p.-
culiar boycott since Gen. Sherman died
Connor's wife is of southern birth, and he
naturally looks upon southern people
kindly. His store was full of village ce!ei-
rifles fortnight ago, and several Union
veterans eulogized Gen Sherman. Con-
nor broke the harmony with the remark:
Gentlemen, | have heard little of this
argument, and am free to say that be-
lieve you to be all wrong The historian
oil the civil war twenty years hence will
not place the laurel upon Grant, or Sher-
man or Sheridan, but upon the tomb of
that greater and grander hero-Gen Rob
ert h. Lee. He was immeasurably the
leading gen raj on either side"
Thinks He Can Win.
The Union veterans left in disgust a.
this. and next day boycott was begun.
Conner says lac is not rebel sympathizer,
nor was he one during the war, but he
claims the right to express any opinion he
may choose To make public so long as it i,
not reasonable. He believes that he can
successfully withstand the boycott against
his store and thinks it will soon end.
