WINTER STYLES.
velvet Gowns Are In skirts and
Rolpros,

Velvet plays a conspicuous part in win
ter costumes, forming entire gowns often,
as well as trimmings. Applications OF
costly lace on velvet are among the ap-
proyed decorations. Toilets made com
pletely of velvet require very little orna-
mentation, the beauty of the material De-
ing concealed by much trimming,
The foot of skirts is often cut into
square tabs, scallops or points, a plating
or ruf1e being placed beneath. The edge
of the slashings is sometimes plain, some
times bordered with a narrow band OF fur
or galloon.
The bolero has by no means disappeared

they receive, that's all there is to 1t.

Deafness canno. 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 constitu
tional remedies. Deafness is eau Q |
by an infamed condition Of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustachlan Tube.
When this tube gets infamed you
have 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 nor
NAL condition, hearing will be des-
troyed forever; nine cases out Of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an infamed condition OF

HARMAN. Editor and Publisher

Much of our space is given up TINS
week to the news OF the strained re-
lations between this Government and
that of Spain. Heretofore we have
paid but little attention to all the SO
called news which has filled the col
umns of the press daily since the un-
fortunate destruction Of the warship
Maine, because none OF it was au-
thentic and, therefore, net reliable
The President has clearly indicated
his policy in reference to his dealing
with Spain in this emergency He
will make no demand upon Spain tor
indemnity until public opinion be-
comes more settled, treating the de-
struction of the vessel as an incident
only. In this his position is a pre-
eminerly proper and corrections His
policy for the present will be concili-
ato1y, going as far as it is consistent
with the nations honor to preserve
the peace. There is an undercurrent
all through his talk with his friends
and advisers in both political parties
that has deeper significance than
that which appears on the surface.
It seems to US that it is the fixed
determination of the President to
force Spain to end The war in Coba'
by peaceful means if possible or by
a declaration of war if necessary.
After declaring that the Maine
was blown up by the explosion OF a
/. mine and that the first explosion was
from the outside, the court OF inquiry
failed to fix the responsibility for the
destruction Of the Maine upon Spain
The situation can be summed up as
being very grave and critical.

INSURGENTS HAVE
CAPTURED ILOILO.
Spanish Evacuate the Town and
Flee Before Arrival OF the

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2s.-There Is
good deal OF anxiety in official circles here
over the recent events at Iloilo
Two official dispatches have been received
by the state and war departments, but IL
is impossible 70 ga;'ier from them accur-
ate knowledge as to the conditions there.
IL Is no, even possible TO learn whether the
insurgents or the American forces have
taken the place.
This morning United States Consul
Pratt. at Singapore. cahled the state de-
uartment: ''Iiollo taken 2ifh. Spanish fed

This threw the officials into deeper doubt
than before. The American expedition
which left Manila 10 go to Ilollo consist
ing Of 20ao troops and the warships Baltl-
moTe and Callao. would scarcely have had
time to reach Iloilo by the sath, SO the
Inference is that the Insurgents are In pos
session. Color IS lent 10 this belief by the
fact reported In one telegram tina; TIE
Spaniards had retreaied 70 a strongly fort;
.fed town on the Island of MindaHao. This
does not agree with Pratt's statement. that
they He'd TO 3orneo. The fact that the
Spa-iards have re;reated al all ia con-
