Deafness Can Not be Cured

the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is intlamed YOU have a
rumhling 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 restored to its nor

hoon as the herds are sighted off CalifOr-

them, and there is no relaxation
of the chase day and night until
the weary animals reach the G0-mile
closed zone around the islands. The
slaughter is very heavy, particularly 50
when the seals are caught in the smooth
water in the lee Of the hcadlands on the
on the upper coast, and though the take
Of skins is large, reaching d total of lOO,-
600 last season, the slaughter is much
greater as only one of every two or three
seals killed at sea is recovered, the others
sinking rapidly.
SO TO protect the seal adequately, it
will be necessary for the naval revenue

keeping the poachers at a safe distance,

DEADwooD, :. D., March G.-Fire
broke IL about + o'clock a. m. in Fas-
hold saloon, and destroyed all that por-
ton of the city lying between the center
of Main street and Chinatown. There
was no wind blowing at the time OF the
whole city would have been destroyed.
AS it is the best portion of the city IS
destroyed. The loss is roughly estimated
at over $50, 600. The fire is nov under
control. The hremen seemed to have
nc control of it from the fact that it
originated in structures built of rough
pine, and the Roadway made was appal-
ling. Twenty-Five thousand will cove
all the insurance.
One Fatality.
The efforts of the fremen were
thwarted by a lack of water in the
mains. 1t is supposed that one life was
lost in a lodging house. A fireman
named Warner fell from a ladder and
was badly hurt. T%hirty-two buildings
in all were destroyed. The lessees We're
the largest losers, excepting Glib Stone
& Co., who owned their buildings and
let their insurance run out a short
time ago. A good many Of the
buildings destroyed belong to the Swift
Bros. of Wilmington, Del. These will
be rebuilt with brick, as the locations
are good, and will readily command
good rents. The loss to the insurance
companies foots up $33, 500. The total
loss by the fire will be fully $50. 900.
