Deafness Cannot Be Cured

BY local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way to
cure deafness, and that is by consti-
tutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inhamed condition of
the mucous lining of the Eustach-
ian tube. When this tube gets in
famed YOU have rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, AMI when it
is entirely closed deafness is the re-
suit, and unless the Inflammation
can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but
an iuhamed condition of the. mu-

long standing, is in great demand.
Lillian Ivory, a remarkably pretty girl,
aged II years, and her fathers pride and
housekeeper, is in greater demand.
The father of Lillian Is watchman and
lives at 101 Grand View avenue, his
daughter is seventeen, she is large for her
age and would pass for five years older.
Lillian possesses one long gown, which
maker her appear older, her last appear
ance in Providence was made In this dress.
Williams drew $500 from the bank yester-
day and collected 500 more, and "hasnT

er at noon today, Mrs. Primeau said she
could assign no cause for the fetal act, ex-
cept temporary insanity. The last time
she saw her husband alive was yesterday
afternoon about o'clock, when he ap-
peared In very contented frame of mind,
and bidding herself and his daughter
goodbye he left the house to go and get
shaved.
Her married life had been happy one,
her husband had been provident, and they
were in comfortable circumstances.
The deceased was hard worker and i'm
the past few years has filed his positions
satisfactorily for the Aldrich Express Co.,
the Pawtucket Street Railway Co., acting
as motoman, principally on the Lonsdale
avenue line and the Chicago Beef Co. The
latter position he held until last week.
The house in which he lived and the
store In front of which he committed the
fatal deed are owned by his last employers
and rented by him, the store being sublet
the Lafayette Club.
The case seems to be one OF premeditated
suicide, as the revolver. used had been used
but once and the cartridges but recently
purchased. The stories circulated this
morning regarding domestic trouble prove,
on investigation to be without foundation.
President Brazeau Of the Union st. Jean
Baptiste, of which the deceased was q
member, called on Mrs. Primeau this noon
to discuss the funeral arrangements, which
it is probable will be taken charge of by
the society as soon as the brother of the
deceased in the Western States can be con-
suited.

THE ENGINEERS MEET.


Eternal Corrosion of Steam Boilers Dis
cussed Last Evening.
The Pawtucket Association of Stationary
Engineers had their usual weekly session
last evening at their rooms, Kinyon Block
The discussion last evening was an i'm
portant one, from an engineers standpoint,
and the subject discussed was the ETERNAL
Corrosion of Steam Boilers"
From the various expressions on tho
subject, n was learned that the causes
which lead to corrosion, are of a capricious
nature, seldom acting IN the same manner
on different boilers. The difficulties en-
countered In the detection OF the causes
leading to corrosion formed an interesting
tonic, different remedies were suggested
and discussed.
The association has received very hand
some set of sectional views OF the Bulkley
Injector Condenser, from the Bulkley Co.,
of New York, which will be placed In the
room among other unique exhibits or
steam appliances.

rule:

of said street, but / am not personally re-
sponsible for 1t. II seems to me that for

improvement under the plan proposed is
unwise, 1t would be far more judicious to
make the improvement In manner con-
sistent with the demands and appearance

Alfred Holt, Coiored, Lynch~u Saturday at
owensboro, Kentucky.

At..t, owensboro, kentucky.
Owansboro, KY, Dec. 26. Alfred
Holt, colorod, alias Alexander, the
murderer OF Police Officer A. w.
White, was taken from Jail by mob
at 2.3o O'Clock this morning and
hanged to a tree in the Court House
yard.
About 2. 15 o'clock two men knocked
at the Jail doors and in response to a
question from Deputy Jailer John
Ashby, DR., who demanded who, had
knocked, said they had a prisoner they
wished to lock, up for safe keeping.
Thus thrown off his guard Ashby
opened the door only to face two big
revolvers. He was overpowered before
be could utter cry and the keys were
taken from him.
Pleading for his life Holt was taken
out of the Jail and conducted through
the Court House yard of the east side,
facing the Ruud House. He was given
ample time to pray when a rope was
placed about his neck. At the word
OF command he was swung high in the
air, and in 10 minutes he was dead.
He bad strangled to death.
When the mob had made sure that
their work was complete they mounted
their horses in neighboring streets and
alleys and left town.
Hollis crime was committed on
November l4th last. Officer White was
killed with his own pistol, which was
taken from his pocket by a negro
named George Basket, who handed
it 10 Holt. The murderer escaped, but
was captured shortly a, forwards at
Louisville. He was brought here the
three weeks ago. His trial was begun
early this week, and the common
wealth rested on Thursday, after pro-
ducing conclusive evidence of the
negroes guilt.

The sample ballots brought from San
Francisco by Receiver of Taxes John
L. Dickoy are much different from the
ballots used in Delaware. In this State
the names are printed under the re-.
spective party names, but in the San
Francisco ballots the party name is in
each case attached to that of the candi-
date and the candidates for each Office
are grouped. There is no provision
whereby man by making one mark
can vote full straight ticket, but he
has to put the cross opposite each
name he wants to vote for. Another
feature of the ballots is that they are
numbered.
