The Professional Juror.

From developments brought out in
o her places it has been shown thai
there are number Of professional
Jurors, men who loaf around court
houses with the view of getting
themselve called to fill the places Of
those who may be excused by the
court from service.
1t may not be inappropriate for
the officers here to look out sharply
for this class of blood.suckers just
now.
At every term of court there ares
number of busy men who are taken
from their business when it is inn
perative that they be at their posts,
and likewise there are thUse who
have good and legal excuses to cause
their being released.
Then professionals ban always be
found right on hand, and, while
making a show of reluctance to serve,
yet, in reality, they "jest cum y pur-
puS," aud make their calling aud
election sure.
Nine cases out of ten they are sim
ply non-entities and drift along with
whatever side has the majority Of the
Jury. They are nuisance and d
menace to the community. They
are like the hOrse-leeches daughter
always crying "Give, give" while
no return of genuine service rem
dered.
Mr.. Sheriff, keep your eyes on thai
class of buns.

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
inflamed condition of the mucons
lining Of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
flamation 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 nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous sur
face.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case Of deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by

SPANS Exit-Cnba Free.

On Sunday last, in accordance with
agreement, Capt. Gen. Castellanos
surrendered the city Of Havana and
the island of Cuba, to Gems. Brooke,
Ludlow and Lee, of the American
army.
The scene was grandly imp es-
sive one. With quiet, but firm step,
the soldiers of liberty marched into
the city and formed surrounding the
palace. At IL IN. the Spanish flag
was saluted and lowered, and then
the "hag of the free hearts hope and
home" fioated out to the breeze on
the flag staff Of Moro Castle and the
Governor Generals palace amid the
thunder of the big guns and the
cheers of the people.
There were a number of Cuban
Generals present, and they, with
their people, quietly and calmly
waited for the time for their celebra-
tion to come.
The ceremonies were simple and
plain, and the arrangements were all
that could have been desired to pre-
vent any rioting or trouble of any
kind.
The Spanish garrison left on ship,
accompanying CastellanoS, immedi-
ately after the ceremonies.
Thus ends an era of the most out

Amusements.

Mr.. Clements new play
Southern Gentleman"-is a romance
of three acts and prologue, that
tells a pretty little love story, begun
in the war, near New Orleans, in
1862, and resumed in South Carolina
twenty-five yearslater. The prologue
gives dash of color needed by the
peaceful scenes with three acts. A
Confederate officer has an affair of
honor, and insists on settling IL,
while duty calls him to his post on
ship. Amid the booming of can
non he is killed in the duel, and his
dying request to his second is to keep
the affair a secret from his wife,
whom his second loved in his boy
hood days. Twenty years later the
second, General Carroll, finds the
slayer of the officer engaged to the
officers daughter, with whom he has
fallen in love. The secret that lay
hidden all these years is revealed,
the villain is driven out in disgrace,
and tn re is a happy little denoue-
ment.
The company is advantageously

January 8, 1889, Mr.. j. Buford
Hendrick, of this city, and Mrs
Georgia l.. Lyons, of Louisville,
were united in marriage, and have
resided here ever since.
On Tuesday night last they cele-
brated the tenth anniversary of their
marriage by an entertainment at
their handsome home-"The Ter
Faces"
The spacious house was filled with
the elite of this city and the sur
Founding country, who were invited
t. attend.
When the lair women of this city

the world to sh, w a more beautiful
assembly or ii more Hastily dressed

exception to the rule.
AS for the men, they don't count,
but they were just simply right in
the swim, and were as suave, gallant
and chivalric as usual.
The bride and groom wore the
same clothing in which they were
married ten years before.
The house was ablaze with light
and bower of beauty from the der-
Grating hands of Mr.. Ed Powers
florist, Mr.. w. III. Gooding, of this
city. Palms and smilax, roses and
carnations, lilies of the valley and
ferns were every where to delight the
eye and refresh the senses.
The entertainment lasted from 8 to
- o'clock p. M, and enjoyment OF
every moment was supreme.
One of the handsomest suppers ever
served in this city was partaken o.
about IL O'Clock. 1t was the hand
iwork of that first class caterer, Kline
of Louisville, and the tabl - " ere {

The music for the OCCASION wa

The presents were unique and use

and in every way suitable for tn

TOllIO FERTILIZER.

Under the above heading the indianapolis
Ne7gs says: The members OF the InGiana State
Gamers Association, together with a number of
farmers and gardeners interested in the growing OF
tomatoes tor packing purposes listened a paper
by Professor H. A Huston, OF Purdue Unive rsity,
on 'Soiis and Fertilizers in Connection with Tomato
Growing
Among other things, the Professor said that the
experimental station at Purdue had made number
OF experiments in the OF fertilizers in tomato
growing, and had obtained some valuable results.
One OF the important considerations in the use OF
fertilizers, aside from the increase in the product
was the increase in the tirmness OF the tomato.
Professor Huston said that a special fertilizer
should be used on tomatoes, and should be COM
posed OF Nitrogen, Phosphoric Acid and Potash,
the amount OF Potash should be nearly twice that
the Nitrogen, and six times the amount OF Phos-
phoric Acid In grain crops the reverse OF this rule
is true. This fertilizer for tomatoes should be used
freely, and strong and vigorous growth cultivated
from the start. The experiments showed thar by
the of this fertilizer, the crop had been doubled
and the profits increased three times account of
the better quality Of the fruit.

Ammonia, ..... ~ to 81 Per Cent
Available PhosphOric Acid, to 9 Per Cent
Potash, actual, ........7 to 8 Per Cent

The Ammonia is derived entirely from fine
ground steamdried Fish Scrap and Nitrate OF Soda.
These materials combined furnish the most active
and valuable form Of Nitrogen for tomatoes The
Potash is derived from the highest grade source and
is given III stronger percentage than Tor any other
crops excepting potatoes and tobacco. This partic-
ular formula strongly recommended by one of
the state experiment stations and used with
great success by the late Samuel H. Miller, who
raised fine fruit and commanded ready market for
all he packed. Messrs. Stanley Bros, of Elk Neck
to whom we refer by permission, and who have had
very great success in growing tomatoes with this
fertilizer, used fourteen tons last spring.
Our Bush River Compound is also made ex-
pressy for tomatoes, and has been used with great
success in Bush River Neck, Hartford County and
we refer by permission to Mr.. Charles w. Baker,
who has used the goods, and has handled them tor
several years. This brand is made exactly like
Special Tomato Fertilizer the only difference being
it is lower in Ammonia by per cent, the other
elements being guaranteed the same Farmers who
expect to plant tomatoes and to secure profitable
crop, will certainly have much better prospects if
they use such goods we have described. These
brands are made expressly for tomatoes, and have
been used with the greatest success in the tomato
growing district Of Hartford County and right here at
home. The percentages guaranteed are not only in
accordance with the' recommendations OF the best
authorities we have, but the actual formula or ma
terals used, those that have proved in many ex-
perlments and in actual field cultivation far superior
to all other kinds.

In connection with the above, we would say,
that extensive experiments with fertilizers in grow
ing tomatoes have been made by the Mary land
Agricultural College and at other experiment sta
tons. The results have uniformly demonstrated
that large crop OF firm fruit came from the ferti-
llzer testing high in Nitrogen and higher still in
Potash in connection with fair percentage of Phos-
phoric Acid, which found in every complete fert-
lizer. Our Special Tomato Fertilizer is guaranteed
