Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
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 intlamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets infamed you have
a rumbling 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 normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out Of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an inflamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness Caused by catarrh
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars, free.

BUGGIES---PLAIN

Any and everybody knows that there
buggies cheap and buggies fine. Every
buggy has five wheels and after that is

You can buy buggies at from $50 up, but
the CAROLINA BUGGY ''is not built
that way" 1t is made to sell at S75. 1t

The Roanoke times. [volume] (Roanoke, Va.) 1890-1895, 1895-07-25

WASHINGTON, July 24.-Bad news has
been received at the State Department
from the colony OF negroes who went
into Mexico some sime ago and settled
on tract OF land near Tlahualio. a
telegram WAS received at the Depart.
ment to-day from United States Consul
Sparks, at Piedras Negras, stating that
the negroes are in deplorable condis-
ion. These emigrants went from the
Southern States of the United States,
mostly from Alabama and the Csrolinas,
under tho most alluring promises from
the omigra lion agents Of com Portable
homes in Mexico; but from all accounts
they have boon ill-treated and suffered
great hardships from the time OF thei-
arrival In that country
Consul Sparks says the negroes are
scattered for miles along the railroad
without friends, funds or food, living on
Mesquite beans and branch water. The
consul says he c&n do nothing toward
their relief and he fears trouble, because
the negroes are starving. The rail-
roads offer TO make liberal rates to take
them out OF the country.
Liter the consul reports that he has
received telegram from DR.. L. 81.
Barry. at loren, Mexico, dated July
80, to the effect that 1873 OF the negroes
from the colony were there in q desti-
tute condition, with fifteen casos OF
contagious diseases among them. The
Mexican police have prevented them
from entering the town.
letter on the subject has also boon
received at the State Department from
Representative Bankhead, OF Alsbame,
Ing uiring whether the government could
not assist In bringing back to their
homes the members of this colony OF
colored citizene who ere now in desti-
tute circumstances and dissatisfied.
The Department has tried in every
way to afford some relief In this case
but 1t is we'll nigh powerless, and it Is
probable that II the unfor tuna te negroes
are to be saved from starvation priva,e
aid must be extended them immedi-
ately. Consul Sparks has been instructed
to render any assistance which he can
properly extend and to report any
serious developments

THE COTTON DROP.
Production and Price of the Staple for the
Past One Hundred Years.

Production and Price of the Sta pie for the
Past One Hundred Years.
WASHINGTON, July 24.-The report of
the Agricultural Department on the
production and price OF cotton for the
past 100 years WAS made public to-day.
1t points out that the surplus OF stock
In Europe on July l last year was
4S4.o 900 bales against total crop In
the United States for that season of
9,475,435 bales. Pricea, 1t Is shown,
reached the lowest point during she
years when the accumulation of sur
plus stocks was the largest and that
those were the years of largest crops.
The average variation Of prices dur
Ing the years from 1891 to 1895, WAS
2.21 cents against yearly range In the
previous decade OF 1.77 The greatest
range OF prices occurred during the
period OF 1861 to 1870, inclusive being
1885. The figures show that the ranges
or prices we're much higher and the
fluctuations much more violent in the
decades 1920 and 1s3l-40 than during
any other period, excepting that of the
civil war, when the trade conditions
were abnormal.
For the yesr ending July /, 1895, the
