Especial Correspondence to The Herald
WASHINGTON. Dec. 26.-The Cuban
question is now claiming almost the en-
tire attention, and all other questions
are, for the time being at least, over
looked. The senate committee on for
eign relations has decided to report a
resolution favorlng Cuban independ-
ence. Many of the senators believe that
Secretary Olney is right in his opinion
that the power to recognize new state
rests solely in the executive. While the
eympathies of all must go out to the
struggling band of patriots who are
fighting against such heavy odds, and
while all of us desire to see Cuban in
dependence an assured fact. yet the in
surgents have founded no government,
and even if the president should desire
to recognize them, what could he recog-
nize? Where could he send an accredited
minister? They have no seat of govern
ment. 1t is generally believed here that
President Cleveland will veto any meas
ure congress may pass looking to the
recognition of Cuba, and there is some
talk of passing it over the executive
Veto The question then arises would the
resolution become a law as others do
when passed over a veto? Senator Frye
of the committee on foreign relations
stated yesterday that he believed a ma
jority of that committee are of the opin-
ion that if such resolution passed by a
two-thirds' vote over the veto of the
president 1t would then become law.
which the executive would be compelled
to execute as he is any other law on the
statute book. The discussion, at least
in the senate. will be long one, and
there is no danger of hasty action being
taken. Apropos of the Cuban question
the following story is being told on SEN
ator Cullom of Illinois: 1t was a very
cold night and the senator was snugly
tucked away in his bed. "Ring-g-g" went
the door bell and the senator, wonder
ing who wanted to disturb him in the

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deaf ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inhamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is infiamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deaf ness 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 for ever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inf1amed 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 cir culsrs; free.

Be Generous.

Miss Mary Costello and Miss Do lores Redondo have been selected by Father Gheldof of the Catholic Church of this city to, collect sub scriptions for the new Cathedral in Tucson. So far our citizens have not been over-generous in their donations but it is to be hoped that their pride will not allow Yuma to stand at the foot of the donation column. The object is 8 most worthy one and everybody who possibly can afford to do so should contribute their mite the smallest amount will be as ac- yceptable as the largest. This beauti- full cathedral when finished will prove 8 grand advertisement of Christianity for every city, village and hamlet in the Territory and will accomplished a great deal in the way of developing our many resources.

CATHOLIC PAIR
For the Benefit of the New Cathedral
 at Tucson,


 Elaborate preparations have been made for the great Catholic fair to be held at the new cathedral at Tucson, beginning on December 9th and closing on the evening of Decem- Der 12th. The fair: is for the pur- pose of raising funds to complete the new cathedral, admittedly the largest and handsomest building in this part of the West. The fair will be opened by an address in Spanish by the ven- erable Archbishop Salpointe, followed by one in English by the Rt. Rev. Bishop Bourgarde.
 Already the managers of the fair have received an endless number of rare, beautiful and costly things, some to be voted to favorite candidates and others to be won at rallies. These articles have been sent to the man. agement from Mexico, California, New Mexico, Arizona and from other States. The collection is an education in it. self.
 The fair will be held in the new cathedral. Numberless booths are now in course of construction, no ex- pense or care being considered in beautifying them. These booths will be presided over and conducted by lovely ladies of Tucson. Among them one will be devoted to the sale of dolls, another to flowers, another to candy, another will be presided over by the seventh daughter of the sev- enth daughter of famous East India family, famous fortune teller, both in English and Spanish. There will also be fancy stand, postofice, fish pond, grab bag, chocolate table and an ice cream and lemonade table.
 The new cathedral will be for the occasion thrown open to the public for the first time, and its interior pro- fusely decorated and artistically illu- minated by electric lights, thereby bringing out its vast vaults, Corin- thian pillars and superb decorations.
 Each day, from five until ten, SD elaborate Spanish dinner and also a dainty American supper will be served by the ladies. On the evening of the second and fourth days of the fair tableaux will be given. Each evening there will be singing, recitations and music.
 On the closing night short addresses will be made by Messrs. Vlasco and Rondstadt in Spanish and Messrs. Franklin and Wright in English.
 We predict that this fair will be a great success. Nothing like it has ever before been attempted in the Ter ritory. Already large numbers of peo- pie from Sonora and different towns in this Territory have signifed their intention of attending, and to their and the success of the fair all the Catholic and Protestant ladies of Tucson are devoting their best thought and much of their time.

Catarrh Means Danger.

Because If unchecked it may lead directly to consumption. Catarrh is caused by impure blood. This fact is fully established. Therefore, it is useless to try to cure catarrh by out ward applications or inhalants. The true way to cure catarrh is to purify the blood. Hoods Sarsaparilla, the great blood purifier, cures catarrh by it's power to drive out all impurities from the blood. Thousands ot people testify that they have been perfectly and permanently cured of catarra by Hoods Sarsaparilla'

The ladies of the Catholic Church are busily engaged selling tickets fol a number of handsome prizes to Dc rallied off and the proceeds to be used for Christmas tree for the children of the Sunday School class. This is worthy cause and it is to be hoped that the ladies will have no trouble in disposing of large number of tickets The larger the number of tickets sold the more presents will the ladies be able to purchase and greater will be the joy of the little ones.
 We live in a country of which the principal scourge is stomach trouble
 It is more widespread than any other disease, and, very nearly, more dangerous.
 One thing that makes it so danger ous is that it is SO little understood.
 If it were better understood, it would be more feared, moro easily cured. less universal than it is now.
 So, those who wish to be cured, take Shaker Digestive Cordial, be- cause it goes to the root of the trouble as no other medicine does. The pure, harmless, curative herbs and plants, of which it is composed, are what render 1t so certain and, at the same time, SO gentle cure.
 It helps and strengthens the stomach, purifes and tones up the system.
