There IS 1ore Oatarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurable. For a
gIeat manv years doctors pronounced it
local disease and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced
it incurable. Science has proven catarrh
to be constitutional disease, and there
fore requires constitution al treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured BY
F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the
only constitutional cure on the market.

night when the executive committee of

rector of the fair 1t was also decided
to disband Mr.. Thomas big orchestra
of ia pieces. cit is the inten-
tion," said one Of the members
of the executive committee, ''to
engage several bands and locate
them about the grounds for the pleas
ure of the visitors. Popular music only
will be played, as the public has ex-
pressed itself as being opposed to the
high class selections which Mr.. Thomas
insisted on giving the public. Besides
this, Mr.. Thomas release will great
ly decrease the expenses OF
the fair The executive commit
tee ordered the council Of ad-
ministration to cancel the contracts
of the members of the orchestra as soon
as possible, and this week will probably
be the last that Wagnerian music is
PLAYED at the fair. In accepting the
resignation of Mr.. Thomas, the COM
mittee adopted resolution tha- it is
not unmindful of the work he has per-
formed and regrets that the financial
condition Of the fair makes it necessary
for the exposition to lose his services.
Festival and Music halls will probably
be used for band concerts on rainy days
and for special concerts.

CRISIS IN EGYPT.
Great Britain May Be Forced to Again Inter
fepo at Caro-,

CAIRO, Aug. 1.-THE return of the
Khedive from his visit to the Sultan at
Constantinople has been marked by
further tension in the political
situation and a cabinet crisis is
now on. The Khedive has had
a quarrel with his prime minister,
Riaz Pasha, who owes his position to
English influence and wants ministry
in accord with his own policy, which is
we'll known to be proFrench one. 1t.
was only few months ago that he dis
missed his ministers who were in &C
cord with the English policy and sub
stituted a cabinet of his own selection.
Lord Cromer, the British minister, in
tervened and forced the substitution of
Riaz Pasha as prime minister. The
situation between the Khedive and his
official advisers has since been strained
and has now resulted in another crisis
that wall probably again call for British
intervention
