Deafness Cnnnot be- Oured

By local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
THERE'S only one way to cure Deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inf1amed con-
dition Of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets
infamed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed Deafness is the result, and unless
the inflammation can ibe taken out and
this tube restored to its normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever
nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh. which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness lcaused by catar1 j
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh

The Somerville Journal has story
of little Dorothy, six years old, who,
like other children, is a born egotist.
She went out for a horse car ride with
her aunt. She had her new purse with
her and was very desirous to pay her
own fare, but her aunt said no. ''You
are my guest" she explained to
Dorothy, so must pay your fare, but
you may take'the ten cents and hand it
to the conductor, if you like So
Dorothy took the dime and when the
conductor came along She handed it
to him in the most dignified manner.
He gave her quick look, and estimat-
ing that she was under the fve-year
limit, he rang in only one fare. and
handed back five-cent piece, which
Dorothy took without word. Wasn't
it strange" she asked after she got
home, ''the conductor took my fare,
but he didn't charge Aunt Alice any
fare at alp"

An old Song.

When giants lived in ancient times,

In good old England, or foreign cimes,
Sing heigh, my boy, sing ho
They carried things with a high old hand,
Nor strong, nor weak, could before them stand,
the land,
Sing heigh, my boy, sing no!
But the giants didn't have things their
own way when Jack-the- Giant Killer
arrived on the scene. You remember
the story. Recolleet. too, that every age
has its giant-killer. We have our giants
in the form of all sorts of dread diseases,
supposed to be incurable. Our Jack is
in the form of DIR. Pierce, who has proven
the expression 'sincurable diseases to
be a fallacy. Can you imagine more
potent weapons to assist woman in
killing the giant-disease, than DIR.

Lowest stage Ever known.

ALTON, ILL.,, Aug 1S.-Calhoun county,
a long, narrow strip of rich agricultural
land between the Mississippi and nli-
nois rivers, is cut off from the world by
the lowness of the water. It has no
railroad communication, and boats can
not reach it. A horseman forded the
Mississippi Saturday without getting
his saddle wet. The oldest inhabitant
never heard of the like. One light
draft steamer still touches from the
Mississippi river side, but only hand
ferries can cross the Illinois.

WOODLAND, CAL, Aug. 13.-At l
O'Clock today Judge Fisher rendered a
decision in the train-wrecking case. He
refused to allow the motion of dismissal,

The Republicans win Fight the Il i'll
Hard as Possible.
WASHINGTON, Aug. I3.--It is the in
tention of the democratic managers of
the house to finish up everything today
if possible. The committee on rules will
present special order to carry out the
mandate of the caucus. The intention
is to pass the tariff bill and then the
other bills named in the caucus resolu-
ton.
The committee on rules held short
session. The republicans refused to ac-
cept the terms proposed by the demo-
cratic members. The democrats pro-
posed to allow an hour for debate upon
the senate amendments and in Is min
utes on each of the other bills, which it
is proposed to bring in as separate
measures and allow no amendments to
be offered. At 2:20 p. m. the rules
com mittee submitted report for the
immediate consideration of the seuate
tariff bill, to be followed by separate
bills for sugar, coal, iron ore and barbed
wire. Reed made parliamentary OBJ
lection to the procedure, claiming the
tariff bill was not before the house and
indicated the republicans intention to
fight the bill and report in every proper
way. Crisp held the resolution in order
and before the house. The previous
questions was ordered without division.

A dispatch received at the JOURNAL
Office this afternoon is as follows:
LAwRENCE. Kaz, June 2. = About
thirty members of the Topeka contin-
gent of Coxeyites, organized by the late
-.Adjutant Generel Artz, came to Law
renee last night and camped here. Artz
is not with the men, who seemed
to be nothing but the cOmmonest
tramps. They attracted a large crowd
of curious sight-seers, and were donated
a wagon load of provisions by sympa-
thizers The detachment remained in
camp all the forenoon
Captain Artz the commander of the
Topeka commonwealers, is in Kansas
City waiting for his army. He went
ahead of the Privates on a passenger
train early yesterday morning. Ac-
cording to the Kansas City
papers he is not greatly encour-
aged at the prospects of aid from
the relief committee there. He appears
to be at a loss to know why his men don't
arrive. No doubt he knows by this time.
Sanders hasn't left Leavenworth yet, and
in fact everything seems to have gone
wrong.
eral ii. III. Artz of Kansas, who is fgur
ing as captain" of a company of fifty
two men, was in Kansas City, KAN, sew
eral hours yesterday. Artz had lost his
eAcOm mmAnd' auG was aQXlOuSly looking
for it. He said his company had taken
passage ON freight train in Topeka the
previous night with the intention of COM
ing to Kansas City. He had supposed the
men had been successful, and according
ly came down on later train to meet
them When he got here he learned
that his men had been 'sfired" from the
train before leaving Topeka and were
perforce coming on afoot.
Artz spent the rest of the day in tele-
phoning to Topeka, Lawrence and
LeavenworthS in regard to the where
abOuts Of his men. While here he made
inquiries regarding the outlook for pro-
visions during the stay of the army. He
said he would pre- baby attend the meet
ing of the Trades Assembly of Kansas
City, Kan, tomorrow, as he had been
asked BY members 10 do SO.
Il think my men will be here some
time tomorrow" said the general to a
reporter. 1--WE shall probably remain in
Kansas City. Kan, until Tuesday, by
which time, l think, Sanders and Ben
nett's men will have arrived. Then we
will all go down the river together on
the Belle Of BrOwnville and her fiat
boats. | believe there will be 500 in

Il think l shall buy tents for my men
here, and, if finances permit there will be

will be made here by any branch of
the army. General Sanders will have full
charge, however, and whatever he says

The North Topeka Mail in referring
to candidates says: "Hon. J. @. Wood
announces in this weeks Mail that he is
a candidate for probate Judge. There
is no Republican in Topeka whom the
Mail takes more pleasure in mentioning
favorably than Mr.. Wood, because he il
worthy in every way and one of the most
loyal Republicans that ever lived. He is
always in the front of the battle There
is scarcely a school house in Shawnee
county in which he has not talked for
Republican principles, and in the last
two campaigns he has been in demand
in almost every county in the state. The
chairman of the Republican state central
committee said not long ago that there
was no speaker to take part in the last
campaign under the committees direc-
tion who gave better satisfaction than
Mr.. Wood, and it was a remarkable fact
where Mr.. Wood had made
speeches the largest Republican
gains were given. 1t is not only
good politics, but it is right that those
who render their party great service
should receive proper recognition in the
nomination of a ticket. Party fealty is
not the only consideration in Mr.. Woods

do what is right. 1t is conceded that he

of eX-Speaker Reed, Senator Lodge, Rep
resentative Cannon and other Republi-
can leaders in favor of a freer use of sill
Yer, are regarded in congress
sIOnal circles as revival of the
plans and aspirations of James G. Blaine.
1t is well known that Mr.. Blaine's hopes
were to unite the nations of the western
hemisphere by means of inter-continen-
tai railroads. reciprocal treaties and
common medium of exchange.
Representative Hit of Illinois. who
was closely associated with Mr.. Blaine,
says that the proposition of MIR. Reed is
on the line of MIR. Blaine's policy.
"Mr. Reed presents the proposition
with directness,' said AIr. Hit, whereas
Alr. Blaine proposed passive steps which
tended TO the same general results
A great deal of Significance is given
the Reed interview by many pub
lie men here. For several
months there has been growing
sentiment among Republican memb bers
in favor of a liberal policy towards sill

and constant associates in the house of

be adjusted satisfactory to both op-

other citizens shall be destroyed
or interfered with by any one.
l hope that the laws will be
respected, and when the trouble is ended
the miners can say that they have won,
which believe they will if they remain
firm without resorting to lawlessness."
