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 infamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets infiamed 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 de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out OF ten are
caused by catarrb, which is nothing but
an infiamed condition of the mucous

It may be worth something to know that
the very best medicine for restoring the tired
out nervous system to a healthy vigor is
Electric Bitters. This medicine is purely
vegetable, acts by giving tone to the nerve
centres in the stomach, gently stimulates the
Liver and Kidneys, and aids these organs in
throwing off impurities in the blood. Electric
Bitters improves the appetite. aides digestion,
and is pronounced by those who have tried il
as the very best blood purifier and nerve tonic.

Bicycle Races.
The bicycle races at the Ball Park on
Decoration Day were largely attended
and furnished lots of amusement by the
close and exciting finish. Several acci-
dents or ''spills'' occurred in the contests,
one being of very serious nature. In
the mile open Frank Turner had fall,
and iu the two mile handicap Clarkson
Coles and a rider named Jones also fell,
but the riders only received a few bruises
and good shaking up. The most serious
accident happened in the last race, which
was five mile match between Clarkson
Coles, of Woodstown, and Walter Cline,
of Salem. Pace makers were used and
all vent we'll until the seventh lap. The
riders started off at fast clip, and the
race promised to be very exciting one.
but while going around the back stretch.
Coles struck the pace makers rear wheel
and fell, and Cline's wheel struck him as
he lay on the track, throwing the wheel
and rider into the air several feet, and
Cline landed on his head with great force,
rendering him unconscious for short
time. Drs. MeGeorge and Patrick were
on the ground, and upon examining
Cline found that no bones were broken,
but be was badly briused and shaken up.
COleS WAS DOb lhJuI6u uucu Oy tu1S A1ii'
The unfortunate rider soon regained
consciousness, aud was taken to the East
Avenue and made as comfortable as pos
sible, and when the 5.13 train arrived was
taken to his home 10 Salem. We are
glad to state that Cline's injuries were
more painful than serious, and that he is
now able to he about. Many would like
TO see these two riders meet again on the
Fourth, when every precaution will be
taken to prevent occurrences of this kind.
Following is the summary of the races:
Mile open-Clarence Gaunt, first; Geo.
BsyDes, second; Roy Woolman, third;
VIM. Preston, fourth. Time 2 81.
Boys lf-mile-French Reeves, first;
Crispin, of Salem, second; James Pan
coast, third. Time, 13.
Two-mile handicap-George Baynes,
scratch, first; Carter, of Pennsgrove,
scratch, second; Clarence Gaunt, 40 yds.,
third; Frank Turner, so yds,, fourth.
Time, George Baynes deserves a
great deal of credit for winning this race,
as be rode the last mile with no wind in
his rear tire.

A sad-faced woman received the express
package at the door of the humble cottage.
But her features lighted up when she saw
the address.
Heaven be blessed, jamie" she MUIR
INJURED to the pale and slender lad who
nestled at her side, its from your father
on the Klondike!'
With trembling fingers she united the
knots and unwrapped the package. When
the last wrapper was removed a half sheet
of fetter paper and an ancient pair Of
hand-me-down trousers tumbled TO the
floor. She lifted the note and read it aloud
in an agitated voice.
Dear Jane-I haven't struck 1t yet, but
am still hopeful. All 1 can send you is this
old pair Of trousers. which / ave no use
for. May be you can cut them over for
Jimmie. Yours a~ffectionately, joe"
For a long time the poor woman sat
stunned. with the slender lad weeping be-
side her. She had waited so long and pa
tiently for good newsstand this was the re-
suit. The landlord was growing more and
more impatient. the butcher and baker
were almost insolent.
How could she satisfy their importuni-
ties with a pair of secondhand trousers?
She uttered an exclamation of contempt
ment aside.
AS she did so an idea struck her.
Suddenly rising to her feet She picked up
the trousers.
Then, after spreading them upon a clean
newspaper, she brushed them, beat them
and finally washed them.
Carefully gathering up the gold dust
thus d~isiodged, she carried it to the nearest
bank and sold it for $2.1ST.

SIX HEATS NECESSARY
TO DECIDE BOTH OF THE GRAND
CIRCUIT RACES YESTERDAY.
2iOS Pace Won by Planet and the 2:14
TrOt by MOsuI-OakIand Baron
Ruled of thu Track.

COLUMBUS, o., Aug. THE Grand Cir
cult meeting closed to-day at the Columbus
Driving Park. The weather was clear and
track fast. But two races remained, but
they proved to be the most exciting of the
week, six heats being required to decide
each. There were surprises galore. The
2:0S pace was the big race, there being
eleven starters. In the pools Heir-at-Law
sold favorite, while Frank Bogash brought
so; Planet, 60; Directly, 10; SpinXetta, 8.
Aileen, a mare that had not raced for more
than a year, having gone lame, won the
first heat in easy style, while Bogash mar
rowly escaped the distance flag and Planet
trailed in the ninth place. Bogash won the
second and third heats in fast time, the
second being 2:05A and third 2:04A. In the
fourth heat Directly carried Bogash to the
half mile in 1:01A. This pace proved to be
too hot for Bogash and he could not finish
better than third under the whip, while
Planet, who had not previously finished
better than seventh, took the heat in 2:05A.
Planet won the last two heats and the
race with ease. While Heir-at-Law was a
cc%ntending factor in every heat in which
he started, he was not able to finish better
than second in any of them. Previous to
the race Bogash, who was owned by Frank
Bogash, of Fort Wayne, was sold to George
Vandyke, of Canyon, Mont, for 5000.
In the 2:14 trot Oakland Baron was al
most a prohibitive f~avorite. He won the
first two heats, being compelled to clip a
second and a half off his record in the
second. Mosul won the third heat in
equally fast time. 2:09A. The fourth mile
trotted was declared no heat. Oakland
Baron took the lead and held it all the
way round with Ruby a close second. AS
1t was evident Ruby was not driven out,

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Aug. Tim Hurst, the
league umpire who is wanted in Cincinnati
for assault. was released from custody to-
day. His motion for a writ of habeas cor
pus came up for hearing before Judge
Murphy, of the Criminal Court of Correc-
ton, and was granted. Detective Grim, OF
Cincinnati, who is here, did not attempt
to rearrest Hurst, as was expected. Judge
Murphy evidently expected such action,
for ne said: There is no authority of law
for holding this defendant here, for he is
already under bond TO appear for trial IN
Cincinnati If any officer arrests this man
/ will fire him 81, 00."
Hurst says his only object in institutiug
habeas corpus proceedings was to have the
opportunity to continue as umpire until the
time set for his appearance in Cincinnati.
The umpire has expressed his willingness
to return to Cincinnati without requisition
papers. He is due there Wednesday.
