Deafness Caut be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is anly one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of the muscous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube
gets inhamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed, deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation
can be taken out, and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever. Nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an intlsmed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars
for any case of deafness Caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by tax

BOLD BANK ROBBERY.
This Time at Roslyn, Wash, in the

Cascade Mountains.
TACOMA, Washington, Sept. 25.--
Three men yesterday afternoon rode
into the coal mining town of Roslyn in
the Cascade mountains, where the fatal
mine explosion occurred last summer,
entered Ben Sinpe's bank and while
two covered the cashier, bookkeeper
and two customers with revolvers, the
third emptled the safe of 10000 which
Was placed in sack. Then they re-
mounted and rode out of town shoot
ing right and lett. John Conoly. a
negro miner, was shot IN the hip, and
Bookkeeper Frazier IN the leg. A
posse started IN pursuit. One of the
robbers is half breed named Caleb,
who has been watching the bank for
several days.
Every male citizen of Roslyn is car
rying a revolver today. and hundreds
are out searching for the men who
robbed the bank. The money taken
all belongs To the bank and amounted
10 Sll 900. Monday being pay day at
the Northern Pacific mine, the COM
pany had sent $1,000 to Tacoma yes
terday morning. Contrary 10 eXpecta-
ton, the money was not taken TO the
bank, but TO the Offices of the
company. o. A. Frazier, the assistant
cashier, who was shot IN the hip by one
of the robbers, Is dong we'll and will
probably recover. The wound of the
negro, Connolly. is only a flesh wound
IN the right leg and not serious. The
sheriff with a posse or 100 men mas
been IN pursuit of the robbers for
twenty-eight hours and their escape is
not expected. TIE bank has offered a
reward of 81 900. This is supplement
ed by an offer of similar amount by
Cashier Abernathv. The robbers were
dressed as cowboys.
