THE GOVERNORS OUTING
4 Personal Investigation Of Affairs in the
Yosemite

STOCKTON. May 25.-Gov. Budd will
start for the Yosemite valley tomorrow
morning and will drive there in his own
conveyance. The governor is a lover of
good horses and dogs, and he will take
his own team and maybe one or two
dogs. His nephew, Harry Budd. a stu
dent at the state university, will accom-
pany him on the trip. This visit is
looked upon with some interest by the
lessees in the valley and by the people
who are complaining about affairs in
that reservation. The state commission
will meet in the valley on the first OF
June, and the governor will preside and
state his purpose in the management of
the valley. 1t Is known that he is de-
termined to have all the roads kept open
and fair treatment given to all comers.
This will probably be the last meeting
of the old board, as a number of new
appointments will soon be made.

Tho Perils of Pig killing.

Peter Hofminister, u German farmer
residing in North Sewickley township
undertook to butcher one of his fat hogs
the other day by shooting it with a
rife. His aim was poor, and the ball, IN
stead of striking the animal between
the ewes, missed the head entirely and
cut a deep furrow along it's side. Crazed
with pain and fright the animal tore
around the back yard, pursued by Peter
whooping and yelling like an Indian
and making frantic slashes at it with an
ak. The animal dashed into the door
of the kitchen and upset Mrs. Hofmin-
lister, who was busy with her household
work. The destruction so wrought SO
aggravated Peter that he welted away
at the animal harder than ever. Round
and round the kitchen went the wound
ed pig and excited German. The latter
kept yelling to his wife, who had gained
her feet and snatched up rolling-pln
in the meantime to head him off; while
the pig kept up an unearthly squealing.
Finally the hog, weakened by the lbss
of blood, fell in corner, exhausted,
thus giving the farmer chance to cut
his throat. The kitchen after the battle
was over looked as though cyclone had
struck II. What the hog had failed TO
unset in his wild race around the room.

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 inflamed condition of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets infamed you have q 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 it's normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out Of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an infamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness Caused by catarrhl
