Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of The ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitunal reme-
dies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous I'm
ing of the Eustachian tube. When
this tube is infamed you have rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness is
the result; and unless the infiamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever. Nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
Which is nothing but an infamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 16.-SpeciaL-A ire
mendous social sensation, involving
Russian prince recently visiting
young married woman of the
west end, has developed today. Sto-
ries concerning the parties have been
whispered about for some time, but the
denouement today boTdered on the
tragic
The actors in the sad drama are
the Russian known as Prince
Egelitcheff. young man who
has been cutting wide swath
in st. Louis society, and Mrs. H. NJ.
Godfrey, wife of the senior member of
the insurance firm of Godfrey & Scott,
and a daughter of Jerome Hill of Hill.
Fontain & Co, cotton factors of st.
Louis and Memphis.
The prince has until recently occupied
a fine suite of rooms at the fashionable
hotel where Mr.. and Mrs. Coudrey also
boarded. AS the story goes the prince
and Mrs. Godfrey first met last summer
in Chicago. In the course of time Mrs.
Godfrey returned to her home at the
hotel.
Soon the prince came also and took
up his residence at the same hotel. The
pair became so friendly that Mr.. Coul-
drey, the husband, entered a protest and
finally sent his wife back to her father
and rumor says she was sent to Phila-
delphia. When she returned some sort
of a peace was patched up and Mrs.
Coudrey and her little girl, two years
old, again made their home with the
husband and father at the hotel until
a few days ago, when Mrs. Godfrey
was taken to her fathers handsome
home on Park-ave. Yesterday she was
sent in a closed carriage with the ut
most secrecy to st. Vincent's asylum
for the insane.
A bitter quarrel between husband and
wife was the result of numerous rumOrs,
in which the wife tainted and was COM
manded by her husband to return TO her
fathers home 1t is rumored she locked
herself and her little child in her room
and imagined that her relatives were
her worst enemies. She spent all her
time weeping and in hysterical excla-
nations of anger. Finally she became
recommended that she be placed in an
asylum until she recovered from the
effects of her strange Authorizations.
Jerome Hill, the father of the unfOr-
tunate woman, is Frustrated by the
shock and was confined to his bed all
day today.
H. M. Coudrey, the husband. refused
to make any statement of the affair, but
said that he was in possession of all
the facts in the case and had decided
what course he would pursue.
The prince absolutely denied knowing
Mrs. Godfrey, Mr.. Godfrey or Mr.. Hill.

At Least Two Lives Lost in the Burn

MADISON, Wis, Nov. 16.-Edgewood
seminary, dominican female institution

Their young roommate, Francis Hen
neberry, aged seven, barely escaped
suffocation. One Of the sisters was very
badly affected by inhaling smoke and
her recovery is doubtful. The fire
originated on the second floor and
burned with great rapidity. The bodies
of the dead girls have just been brought
to this city with the injured sister and
Francis Henneberry. There are thought
to be other fatalities.
The financial loss is about $50 900; par
TALLY insured. How the fire originated
is mystery. 1t started shortly before
9 O'Clock in a room on the second floor
of the main building. The girls whose
lives were lost, slept in or very near to
this room. Before the fire was discov-
cred it must have gained considerable
Roadway, for when the sisters in charge
became aware of the danger the halls
were filled with a dense smoke. They
started at once to rescue the inmates.
