IMPROVING THE TELEPHoNE.-A
dispatch from Odessa says that NJ.
Kildischewsky, an electrician, has dis
covered an improvement in the tele-
phone by the use of which distance
mas no effect upon the hearing. In a
recent experiment between Moscow
aud Rostoff on the Don, distance of
$50 miles, talking, music, and singing
were heard with perfect dstinctness.
An ordinary telegraph wire was used.
The dispatch adds that M. Kildis-
chewsky will goto London to expert
ment with his improvement on the
Atlantic cable between London and
New York.

A AFALLEN VENUs.-The woman VIII,

A FALLEN VENUs.-The woman who
was chosen by the State of Montana as
its ideal OF beauty is to-day an inmate
of the alcoholic ward of Bellevue Hos
pital, New York. Four years ago she
was known to the whole nation as a
model of physical perfection; now she
is an object to stir mingled pity and
disgust, says the New York Journal.
The unhappy woman is Mrs. Caroline
Louise Beach. She posed as the model
of the great solid silver statue of JUS
tice, which Montana sent to the Worlds
Fair. This statue, which stood in the
facade of the Montana building, was
the most notable of the States exhibit,
and was not the least remarkable fea-
ture of the entire exposition. The face
was that of Ada Rehan, but possibly
out of modesty the famous actress made
no further contribution to the statue.
The model was selected from vast
number Of applicants by Sculptor Park:
Mrs. Beach's figure was very beautiful
and as near to the proportions immor-
talized by Greek sculpture as an artist
could hope to find on this earth. Iu
size she was almost heroic, for she was
5 feet, 81 inches high and weighed
l70 pounds. Grace and strength were
as happily combined in her as in the
Venus de Milo.
Last March she reappeared in New
York as a member of George G. Miln's
company. Mr. Min is an unsuccessful
Chicago preacher. with Roman face
and some eloculionary force. He in
tended to play at the Boardway Thea
tre for ten weeks. The engagement
was cut in half Two of the weeks he
played in "Julius Cesar"
Mrs. Beach attracted much attention.
She played the part of Lucius, the boy
page, who has a scene with Brutus in
the tent after the quarrel with Cassius
and on the eve ofthe battle of Phillippi.

Deafness Cannot BE Cured

BY local applications as they cannot reacn

only one way TO cure deafness, and THAT ls
by constitutional remedies. Deafness IS
caused by an inflamed condition OF the
mucous lining Of the Eustachian TUBE
When this tube is inflamed YOU have s.
rumbline sound or imperfect hearing, and
when il is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restored to
it's normal condition, hearing will be de
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing bu5
