Deafness Cannot be 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 inflamed con-
dition of the = mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube
gets inflamed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed deafness is the
result, and unless Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is moth
ing but an inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.

any case of Deafness Caused by catarrh)

Sheriff Hobart returned from Kan
sas City Saturday night with the
man, accused OF stealing from
Mark Gillihan's barber shop In his
custody. The man gave his name as
James White, and claims TO be
painter by trade. The account Of the
arrest as told by the Kansas City
Journal is AS followe: "Fd McElvoy,
the tramp barber who was arrested
by Officer McHale Wednesday, and
who attempted TO assault Detective
Ed Bonher at police headquarters
while his measurements were being
taken by the Bertillon system, is
wanted at lola, Kans., for burglary
aud larceny. The razor which Nc
Elvoy was trying to dispose of when
arrested were identified last night by
Peter Gillihan, barber at lola, as
belonging to him. They were stolen
from his shop in that city last Tues
day. McElvoy will be turned over to
the sheriff of Allen county today"
There is mistake somewhere in
the mans name. He told the sheriff
that he was painter by trade and
that he was in lola at the time Of the
theft but had nothing to do with it,.
He was at the Santa Fe depot wait
ing for train when the barber, who
was the real thief. gave him the
plunder, saying he had stolen it,.
White took the stuff and went to
Kansas City and after the arrest be
went around town with the sheriff
and helped him gather lot of it
which was scattered all over the city
10 the amount of Sl2 worth. He also
showed a Willingness to help in any
way he could in the capture of the
man who stole the goods, but it must
be admitted that he allowed a
golden opportunity in this line
to escape him the night OF the theft,
when he took the plunder, abetted
the thief and failed to inform the
police.
Gilihan admits that he II not the
man who was In the shop and whom
the bar bers suspected, hut White OF
McElvoy, or whoever he il, certainly
mixed himself up in bad mess wher
he received stolen goods which ht
knew to bs stolen goods.

Mater mid ON The Tnhle.

The special meeting Of the city cOun-
ell ;held Friday night to confersMr.
Davis on his proposition to furnish
the city with water resulted in the
question of granting him Il franchise
being laid on the table. The COM
mittee which conferred with him
failed to reach any agreement with
him in the way of compromise, he
wanted everything he had asked for
or nothing. and the council wisely
gave him the later alternative.
The very best proposition which
Mr.. Davis would agree to was as fol-
lows $40 for the first 30 hydrants, $40
for the next 80 and $50 for the next 40.
And he made this reduction only on
the understanding that he was to be
granted an electric light franchise
also.
A gentleman then appeared before
the council and urged that no action
in reference TO waterworks be taken
until the engineers Of Mr.. Holmes,
the cement man, arrive here, as 1t
was not ot all unlikely that another
and better proposition will be made
! by Mr. Holmes, and one based on
scientific facts. Every body agrees
that with gas here, with an easy soil
to work, with water close by, with Il
nil close in for a stand tower, that
lola should have the cheapest works
in the state. Mr.. Holmes engineer
will be able to figure close to the
exact cost, and lola should certainly
not give away any of her valuable
franchises in hurry.
The turning down of the PROPOSE
tion last night does not at all mear
that lola is not going to have water
works within year.

A Story About StlIIweIl.

Among a lot of yarns about promi-
nent people in the state, the Topeka
Capital Of sunday prints the follow
ing, which will be appreciated by the
Judges friends down in this country;
Omitted states Judge w. {. Hook
tells a good story OF how District
Judge Stillwell of southern Kansas
sat down on him about two years ago.
shortly after the passage of the Far
reilly antitrust law, the county attor-
ney of Neusho county, assisted by
Senator Farrelly, the author of the
Dill, started an inquiry to smoke out
A large number of whole salers, their
travelling men and their book keepers
were subpoenaed to appear before
Judge Stiltwell for examination.
The hearing took place at Chanute,
Judge Hook represented the Wholesale
grocers' com bine and he concluded
that it was his duty to 20 to Chanute
and watch the proceedings and dip
in if he could, although he had no
legal status there, it being only an in
quiry.
The attorneys for the state got ia
pushing some of the witnesses pretty
hard and Judge Hook came to their
defense. He got down lot of law
books, cited decisions and then made
strong argument sustaining the po'
sition the witnesses had taken in re-
fusing to answer questions.
Judge Stillwell is an unassuming
sort of man. He looks more like 8
farmer than a Judge. Finally he got
tired of hearing Hook talk, especially
az he was an interloper at the hear.
ing and was delaying the proceedings
and he interrupted him by saying:
'Mr Hook, will you please tell Vi
how you got into this game withou
having any chips?'
Il just backed in,' replied Hook
courteOusly.
We'll, suppose you just back GU
and become Il spectator" retorteS
Judge Stillwell,
Judge Hook backed out as request
ed and stayed out during the remain
der of the hearing"
