There is only one way to cure Deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con
dition of the mucous lining Of the Eusta-
clan Tube. When this tube gets inaamed
you have rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed
Deafness is the result, and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine

MINNEAPOLIS Dec. &c. - The business
world was startled today by the announce
ment that E. S. Corser. the veteran insur-
ance and real estate agent, had become
involved to such extent that he must necea-
sarily make an assignment. i. s. Corser
is not the only one involved, but the firm Of

ment. This firm consists of Lester b. Ell

knap. all we'll known business men. 1t is
very difficult to arrive at the true state of
affairs until the matter is placed in the
hands Of receiver and the liabilities and
assets have been carefully figured up.
1t is thought that the present prospects
are that Mr.. Corser will be able to meet his
obligations nearly in full. His estate will
show fair valuation for real estate assets
amounting to nearly $l,000,000. His assets
will amount to about $4,000 in excess of
liabilities. The amount received by un-
secured creditors will largely depend upon
the management and successful handling
OF the estate. 1t is to the wheat pits of
Minneapolis and Chicago that the failure
must be credited. The story is that his
losses in wheat aggregate $250,000. When
Corser was asked about the matter he did
not deny that he had lost money in wheat

DUBLIN, Doc. 26.--By the decision of
Justice OBrien. rendered Friday In the
North Meath contested election case,
Michael Davitt, Father OF tho Land
league" and one of the foremost men in
the Irish national movements, WAS deprived
of his seat and rendered ineligible to res
election. The decision is regarded by tho
Parnellites as great victory. The grounds
upon which Justice OBrien's opinion ia
decision unseating Mr.. Fullam, the member
from South Meath was founded.
Mr.. Dsvitt's counsei admitted that the
evidence. SO far as Bishop Nulty'a pastoral
applied to North Meath equally with South
Meath. The decision, therefore, WAS u fore-
gone conci iuson, and Mr.. Davtt had en-.
deavored to forestall il by offering 70 give
up hia seat In order TO present himEolf
again as a candidate. This could not be-
permitted. the court holding that IL could
act only on evidence before IL and not upon
the admissions in advance OF testimony.
Mr. Davitt was elected in the general cleo-s
tion by 2.549 votes to 2, lag for his Parnell-
ite opponent. p. Mahoney, who had been
elected in 1886 without opposition.
The result of the case is q painful blow
to Mr.. Davitt, who Ia acutely sensible TO
any reflection on his personal honor and
who had with reluctance consented to be
candidate for parliament. The first elec-
tion of MIR. Davitt to parliament was in
1882, when he was elected from Meath and
declared disqualified by the house of com.
mons in the following resolutions:
Resolved, That Mickael Davitt, returned
as a member from the county Of Meath.
having been judged guilty Of felony and
| sentenced to penal servitude for fifteen
years, and being now imprisoned under
such sentence. is incapable of being elected
or returned as member of this house,
Davitt had been sentenced in 1870 for hia
connection with the Fenian movements. and
WAS discharged on ket.of-leave in 1882,
his sentence not ending technically until
1885. Hence he was at the time. in tho eyes
of the law, felon undergoing punishment.
In November 1891. Davitt was candidate
to represent Waterford City against John
II. Redmond, the Parnellite leader, and
was defeated Redmond iaeeivinQ Lite

WASHINGTON. Dec. 26,-1he criticisms of
Gen. Miles on the construction by the do
minion government of what he regards as
war-like vessels for the lakes under the
name of revenue cutters continue to attract
attention here. Gen. Miles il criticised i'll
high official quarters, and it has been Bug-
essted that if Great Britain should choose
to complain to this government OF the re-
ported speech OF Gen. Miles this govern
ment might be somewhat embarrassed. 1T
ia held Mt the state depattm tment that II the
British government should take Con. Miles
seriously and shonld instruct the British
minister at Washington to make COMPLAINT
of his language, the situation would be
complicated and a satisfactory explanation
difficult. At the war department. neither
Secretary Elkips nor Gen. Schofield Gaze to
discuss the matter though it ID understood
they regard his language as indiscreet.
Gen. Newberry, of Chicago, said Today
that he did not agree with the views OF Ger.
Miles as to the danger confronting lake
cities. He points out that no matter how
many gunbosts entered the st. Lawrence
they could not get up the straits OF Maoki-
nav under the guns of Fort Macinao and
thence into lake Michigan. Neither could
they pass through the oircuitous Sault Ste.

visited the spot where the recent explosion
occurred, and made a careful investigation.
Pending his arrival, Col. Majendie. chief

There is scarcely doubt, save in the

due to personal spite, or perhaps q desire
to biting discredit on Chief Secretary Nor

The family lived quietly. and TO all appear-

daughter often accompanied her. Mrs.
varnum was mot present at services Sun

surprise. saying Mrs. Varnum was mot the
sort of woman to stay at homo because il
was cold. Mr.. Phillips to-day went to the
Varnum house and rang the bell. but re-
ceived no answer, and called up the occu-
pant of the middle dwelling, who said he
had not heard anything from the Varnums.
Mr.. Phillips went upstairs Immediately and
passed through the parlor into the back
parlor and then inso the kitchen. He then
pushed open the door Of the bedroom lead
