Deafness Cannot De:Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach 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 inf1amed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
Wewill give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness Caused by catarrhl }
that cannot be cured by HALLS Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars; free.

CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS
Senator Bulla and Abbot Kinney
Analyze Their Virtues

PASADENA, Oct. 27-(Office of The
Herald, l6 West Colorado street,. A large
number of Pasadena's business men filed
the board of trade rooms this afternoon to
listen to a discussion Of the state consti-
tutional amendments by State Senator Rob-
ert N. Bulla and Abbot Kinney. Mr.. Me-
lick was chairman. Senator Bulla gave
arguments in favoS Of amendments three,
four, five and seven, and against amend
ments one and two. On the sixth he was
still in doubt and stood neutral. He made
a strong plea for the schools in the rural
districts, but deferred to the almost unani-
nous protest Of the teachers Of the state
against amendment No. 6. The usual OBJ
lection to the seventh amendment that it
Is an experiment he considered invalid.
Laws must be improved and new methods
adopted. In the last two sessions
of the legislature nearly 1000 bills were intro
duced. 1t is an absolute physical impossi-
bility to give due consideration to so many
in sixty days. The seventh amendment
would allow the legislators, the press and
the public thirty days to discuss each bill,
and few bad bills could slip in without being
exposed. 1t is long step towards the ref
erendum. The introduction of seven
amendments shows that the people are dis
satisfied with the present state constitu-
ton. He expressed himself in favor of
new constitutional convention.
Abbot Kinney was received with applause.
He spoke in favor of ofamendmepts two, three,
four, five and six, but he strongly opposed the
first and the seventh.

RIVERSIDE RECORD
Two WeddingSTwo Fires-Two

RIVERSIDE, Oct. 27.-Two society we'd
dings took place in the city yesterday. The
first was that of Fred l.. Worsley and Miss

will reside in Canada.
A two.story house belonging to j. M.
Brown, just outside the city limits on the
east side, was totally destroyed by fire this
morning about o'clock. The fire originat-
ed from the explosion of a gasoline stove.
There is no water supply in the vicinity for
fightlng fire, and as a consequence nothing
! could be done to save the property. The
house and most Of its contents were burned.
The loss is about $500, which is only partly
insured.

this morning in the center Of the city at the
rear of the large Orange block. The fire
was in a small clubhouse where a lot of furni-
ture was stored The fire department sue
ceeded in saving the building, but the fur
niture was destroyed by both the fire and
water. The origin of the blaze is thought to
have been through the carelessness of hobos
who made the place sleeping headquarters.
The loss is 5000.
The police arrested couple of hard look
ing men last evening, strangers in the city,
who were overheard making plans to do
some one up when it became dark. The men
are better dressed than the average hobo,
and the officers think that they are profes-
sional thieves. Since their arrest the men
have refused to tell who they are or where
they came from.
The Riverside Land company, which has
disposed of great deal of land in the past
few months, made another sale yesterday of
sixteen acres of fine alfalfa land at Airing

She believes that prayer will bring any

considered as a very lucrative position,
Coroner Campbell asked her how she lived.
She replied that God opened the way for
the church. She prayed for the people and
he did the rest.
Later she gave some details of how the
means for her to live were provided. A Ger

another occasion. She had received sums

Eighteen Minutes.

OF Matanzas, April 2s-The New
York, the Puritan and the Cincinnati
bombarded the forts at the mouth of
Matanzas harbor yesterday afternoon.
There were no casualties on our side,
but it is believed that the hail of iron
which pounded in the forts must have
caused loss of life to the Spaniards,
though nothing is known definitely.
The engagement commenced at 1857
and ceased at lis The object of the
attack was to prevent the completion
of the earthworks at Punta Gorda. A
battery on the eastward arm of the
bay opened fire on the flagship, and this
was also shelled. About u eight inch
shells were fired from the eastern forts,
but all fell short. About five or six
shells were fired from the half COM
pleted battery. Two of these whizzed
over the New York, and one fell short.
The ships left the bay for the open sea-

complished. In the neighborhood of
800 shots were put on land from the
three ships. at range Of from 1000 to

All the ships engaged showed excel

bombarded were on a low lying point,
and were considered merely earth
works. They did not make a good tar
