HIS HEARING WAS RESTORED.

But for Some Time After He Could
Not Bear the Ticking of a Watch.
A well-known physician recently told
the following story. to an Indianapolis
Sentinel reporter: "a prominent Mar
ion County farmer discovered that he
was gradually getting deaf. He could
not hear the hired man blast stumps
with giant powder. He came to my
Office and made signs that he wanted
his ears examined. I examined them
and In an instant almost found that
his defective hearing was caused by the
gathering Of a waxy substance In his
ears. When 1 removed this obstruc-
ton of the hearing l was surprised at
the result. The old gentleman jumped
from the chair where he had been seat
ed and put both hands to his ears. He
couldn't stand the noise from the street
and the least sound startled him. He
was u Of the most pleased men I
ever saw. He went away and it was
several weeks before I saw him again.
He called at my office with his wife
and she did all the talking. She hard.
ly raised her voice above a whisper
and every now and then she looked at
her husband in a timid way. She said
She said that for several days he would
not allow the least bit Of noise in the
house and that he butchered some pigs
before their time on account of being
affected by their sQual. His daughter
and her husband had lived with them
for two years and they had to leave
on account Of the crying Of their t.
mOnths-old baby. There were two
clocks in the house, one in the dining
Dor and one in the bedroom. These
he stopped on account of their ticking.
The clock in the bedroom was an alarm
clock. 1t went of one night. He jump
ed from bed and nearly broke his neck
by falling head first on the floor. The
woman said she had to keep the house
as quiet as a graveyard for more than
two weeks, as it was that long before
her husband became accustomed to
hearing. His daughter. however, has
gone back to the farm with her baby,
and the clocks have been started
AGAIN."

ton for Governor.
New York. Oct. 1O.-The state Demo-
cratic committee has sent out a letter
written by ex-Secretary w. q. Whit
ney, dated at Roslyn, l.. l. The letter
is addressed to Mr.. Hincklcy, the
state chairman. Mr.. Whitney explains
why he did not accept either the
craftsmanship of the state committee,
stating that it was not from an in
disposition to assist In the campaign,
but from reasons purely private. He
reminds Mr.. Hinckley that he two
years ago refused a similar position
on the national committee for pre-
cfsely the same easons He added
that lie desired to remain in the ranks.
MIR. Whitney said that if he ever felt
inclined to break away from any rule
which lie had made for himself it was
during the present campaign. He
thought that before in the his
tory of the party had there been q
time when Democrats should sink
party differences and stand together
for the common good like the present
occasion. Mr.. Whitney said that he
might criticisc in detail the manner
in which the party had during the past
year performed the trusts given to its
keeping. but the present was not the
time for discussion of differences. 1t
was Il time, he thought, for an attack
upon the common enemy. New York
State he believed to be the pivotal
state, and defeat here would mean
encouragement for Democrats and en-
couragement for Republicans through
out the eptire country. MI. Whitney
said that he would not attempt to dis
guise the fact that there is a great
deal of dissatisfaction in the party
ranks. He said that many considered
the state organization management
narrow and arbitrary. He did not
propose to quarrel with any n for
manifesting this. but he was going to
remind all that the policy of the Re-
publican leaders had been even more
dictatorial. He closes with a good
word for Mr.. Hill.

THE EMPRESS EUGENE.

Her Character as Delineated by an
OntriendIy English Editor.
The Empress Eugene was by no
means a bad woman, but she was a
singularly foolish one. Brought up
by a mother, who was little more
than an adventures, occasionally
living in Spain and often roaming
about Europe, she became strong
headed and narrow minded, with all
the superstition Of a Spanlard and
with all the tolerance OF a lady who
has lived much at continental water
ing places. The emperor fell in love
with her and married her. He himself
Wa n dreamer, but amiable in his
relations and as honest as was con.
sistent with lila interests. His sur.
roundings were thoroughly bad. They
were, i'll the main, men who were more
fitted to he billiard markers and card
sharpers than to be INFESTED with
power in q state; shady financiers and
women who would have been more at
"O''O uC1ASIIIIIOtluV tIldIl III q
court. France, with all her wealth
was in their hands and they picked
and stole 20 their hearts content.
The empress did her best to white
wash this sepulcher OF honor and
honesty and to maintain an outward
semblance of responsibility. But un.
q~uestionally she was mn bitious and
really fancied she possessed political
talents. As the emperor's health
waned her influence increased. France
under her auspices was first sacrificed
to an erdeavor to maintain the tenn.
poral sway of the pope ut Rome, and
then to recover the ground the empire
had lost in public opinion by a war
waGed for dynastic purposes.
When this war went against France
she forced her husband to make an
attempt to re-establish a lost cause
by an advance which every person
with the sli.hteet military knowledge
knew was utterly hopeless. Widowed
and childless, she is IN object of sym.
pathy, but rs Empress of the French
she made historyand must accept the
verdict of history.
