CONGRESS has passed the Dingley

eral outlines are very similar to the
Mckinley measure of 1890, and it is
confidently believed that theresult will

will give employment to tens of thous-
ands of operators who have been
practically idle during the past three
years. That it's effects will be felt

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 constitution
al remedies. Deafness is caused by
an infamed condition Of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets infamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed Deafness
is the result, and unless the infamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to it's normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an infamed con-
ditiOn of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh that cannot be cured by Hall g

EDDYs VIEWS.

On his return home from Washing
ton, Congressman Frank M. Eddy was
interviewed by the Globe, in ST. Paul,
and among other things he said:
Minnesota Jared very we'll in the
matter of appointments, but adds that
it would have given greater satisfac-
tion generally, if fewer of the appoint
ees had been men living in the cities
of the state. The appointments, he
says, were punched, and the people in
the state at large would have been
much better pleased if some of the
men had been from the country. The
congressman had little to say of the
Goodnow inhroglio, save to remark
that little or no attention was paid in
w Washington to the effort of man to
stand in the way of an appointment
which had received the approval OF
the senators OF the state from which
it was made. The appointment of Al
yah Eastman is, he points out, prac-
tically hung up, although the ST.
Cloud man will be handed a "recess
appointment to hold at least until
congress comes together. According
to the Seventh district representative,
Fred Won Baumbach, who declined
the appointment to Chemnitz, will be
given some Office or other not later
than September. Prot. l.. Swensen,
the Albert Lea professor, who, by the
way, was with Mr.. Eddy at the hotel
last night. is slated for the post Of
minister to Denmark. and according
to the notion of Mr.. Eddy will have i,
handed to him when congress sits in
December. There are one or two mi
nor places still to be filled, and the
congressman thinks that when the list
is filed, Minnesota will have nothing
to complain of as compared to the at
ronage given other Western states.
For some time there has been slow,
steady Improvement in buiness condi-
tions, and the tariff bill will have the
effect of restoring confidence, and at
least furnishing revenue with which
to keep the wheels of government NOV
ing smoothly.
Minnesota especially will be helped
by the bill, with all her lumber inter-
ests, and he sees as direct result of
its passage, the employment of a
large number of additional men in the
woods almost Immediately. Manufac-
turing interests throughout the coun-
try are bound, he thinks, to receive a
much needed impetus.

France is said to be anxious at the
statistical information that her birth
rate does not equal her death rate.
But there is no state in New England,
not emitting to include the married
state, in which the birth rate equals
that Of France, except Rhode Island.
Rhode Islands birth rate is first rate.
These figures prove it: In France
there are % births a year to each l 200
of population. But the rate of Maine
is only 1899. That of New Hamp-
shire is only 1874, Vermont 1875, Con-
necticut 21.3, Massachusetts 21.5.
Rhode Island has rate of 22.5, a lit
tie more than that of France.-New-

ded a millionth of one per cent to the

COLONEL JOHN TRACEY DEAD
Superintendent of Charities for the
District for Four Years.
Prominent as "a New York Politician
and Newspaper Man-feature at
Democr ratio Headquarters.

Col John Tracey, superintende Mt OF
charities, died last night at 1870 O'Clock,
of Bright's disease, at Providence Hos
pital
Col. Tracey entered the hospital on the
10th Of A pril though he had suffered greatly
since February last from the disorder
that proved fatal to him
His physical distresses toward the last
became less intense and he died seem
ingly without pain
His brother, Gen. and eX-Congressmaa
Tracey, came on from New York several
times to see him at the hospital, but only
the sister in care of him at the tirue was
present when he died.
The body was taken TO Lees unfeTtak-
ing establishment this morning at clock,
where it will be prepared for transporta-
ton to Albany, where tue interment will be
made.
Col. Tracey was about fifty-four years old
and was a native Of New York. He leaves
widow and three children, one of whom is
Miss Minnie Tracey, the prilna donna.
The family are in New York
The deceased was appointed superin-
tendent OF the Associated Charities in 1893,
which was among the best appointments
made in AIR Cieveia nd S second Aduinistra-
tion and general regret is expressed at
his death Iti believed that as yet no one
has been thought OF to succeed Col. Tracey
as commissioner of District charities
The deceased was at one time very prom
inent in the local politics of New York city,
and was well known as an advocate of the
county Democracy as opposed to the old
Tammany Society.
He had filled various offices In the
municipality Of New York, at one time
icing a clerk of one of the police courts,
and was also newspaper man of more
than ordinary ability, having served as
editor of the now defunct New York Star
and other metropolitan newspapers.
His experiences during political cam
paigns as the principal official in charge
Of Democratic headquarters brought him
a widespread national acquaintanceship,
and his genial manner and notwithstanding
for nearly everyone who met him were
marked characteristics.
His death will be very keenly feltamong
many who knew him as worker III the
hurley-burley of New York politics no
less thani n the quieter paths of life, where
he was a genial and knd-hearted COM
panion.

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill bottle or common glass with urine
and let it stand twenty-fOur hours; a Sedi-
ment or settling indicates an unhealthy
condition of the kidneys. When urine
stains linen it is positive evidence of kid
ney trouble. Too frequent desire to
urinate or pain i'll the back, is also con-
vincing proof that he kidneys and bladder
are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that DR.. Kiimer's Swamp
Root, the great kidney remedy, fulfills
every wish in relieving pain in the back,
kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of
the urinary passages. 1t corrects inability

STOCKS OPEN IRREGULAR.
General Condition Nervous Because
of the Cuban situation.

New York, May 17.-There was little
of interest in the stock market at the open
ing, and prices were somewhat irregular.
After opening shade lower, the two lead
ing international favorites rallied a trifle.
Shares of the corn-carrying roads were
firmer Sugar, which opened quarter
lower than Saturdays closing ON the an
nouncenent OF reduction in refined su-
gars, rallied rs, and then lost the improve
ment. Tobacco showed sharp decline IN
response to the unfavorabie decision OF
the Illinois supreme court on Saturday.
The general market shows some nervous
ness because of the unsettled condition at
Washington over Cuban affairs. Bear
traders did not find it an easy matter to
cover stocks.
The market this morning has been dull
and inclined to sag. Tobacco, which sold
down at the opening, rallied later on sharp
covering Sugar has been rather nervous,
and orders either way have readily af-
fected it's movements. The railroad list
has been rather firm, but extremely dull.
