Lord Charles Beresford Says the Issue of
the War Will Depend Upon
Artillery.

London, Dec. 19.--Rear-Admiral
LORD Charles Beresford is quoted, in
ali interview, as saying:
1.-The issue of the war will depend
more upon artillery thananything else.
especially at the siege of Pretoria and
other places where the biggest battles
are expected. Therefore l urge that
all the naval guns which can be spared
from the reserves or other ships DE
mounted on artillery trains and tim
bers for field service immediately.
This move is necessary, as there are H..
quick-firing12-poundersof 1900 weigh
in the army.
THE government should immediate.
ly commission every ship in the "a"
division of the navy, as a needful pre-
caution against any nation seeking 10
take advantage of Great Britain's con-
ditIon. No friendly nation could OBJ
ject- 1t would only be running water
through hose pipes SO as to prepare
for fire.
Il am greatly pleased to see Gen
erals Roberts and Kitchener go to the
aid of Gen. Butler"

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 lin
ing OF the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets iuhammed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed deaf
ness Is the result, and unless the in
fammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out Of ten are caused ca
tarrh, which is nothing by an inham-
ed condition Of the mucous surfaces,

SAD DAY FOR SALIVA.
Its Ball Team Defeated by a Score Of
35 to q.

The third game Of ball between
Salina and Abilene resulted in an
easy victory for Abilene. In fact it
was SO easy that the crowd was very
weary before it was ended. Umpire
Byers gave Salina the advantage in
decisions and the visitors had four
different pitchers. But all throwers
looked alike to the Abilene willow
swingers and the ball was swatted
freely. Abilene took 20 bases on
balls and stole bases when they felt
like it. Salina was clearly outclassed.
The home battery was johnson and
