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 Eus-
tachIan Tube. When this tube gets
lnflamed you have 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 It's nor
NAL condition hearing will be destoyed
forever; nine cases out Of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an infiamed condition Of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars for
eny case of deafness caused by catarrh
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars.

THE LAST DAYS OF COURT.
A Recommendation of the Grand Jury Can
not Be Carried Out.

yR0I De IarrieO OuI.
Owing to our unavoidable absence
from home last week until the paper was
just ready to 90 to press a full report of
the proceedings of the superior court
WAS not made in last weeks NEWS. The
session lasted only two days the second
week during which time nsarly
all of the business on the dockets was
disposed of. No cases of general interest
were tried, however.
The pTesentments as q whole reflected
credit on the grand jury, and a perusal
of them readily showed that all of the
affairs of the county had been fully and
faithfully investigated by the body of
intelligent men who constituted this jury.
Ttat portion OF the presentments that
related to DR.. L. G.. GOneke as a member
OF the county board of education evoked
from Judge Sheffield the statement that
he would examine into the law on the
subject ana do whatever his duty might
be in the premises. On examining the
language OF this part of the preSentmeDts
the Judge observed that the grand jury
had made no specific charge against Dr..
GOneke, and he did not therefore think
the court had any power to proceed
further in the matter, but that he would
carefully investigate the law on the
question. After he bad done this the
Judge found a recent decision OF the
supreme curt which had passed on thit
statute, and it was held by that cour'
that the law which proposed to dismiss
mem Der of school board in summary
way, aad without being gwen an oppor-
t1nity to make defense, was uncOnsti'
tuLlonal and therefore void and illegal
This decision of course controlled, anC
Judge Sheffield took no stel towards
removing DE-. Goneke from the board of
education He will, therefore, con-
+inup to serve as a member of the school
board.
