The Baracas defeated the Metho-
dists on the Baraca grounds yesterday
by a score of 16 to II. The MethO-
dists delayed the game an hour and
therefore the Baracas were obliged to
substitute some of their players in the
last part of the game, as two Baraca
players were to play at the picnic,
otherwise the Methodist score would
have been much smaller.

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 infamed condition of the mt
cous lining OF the Eustachian 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 it's normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
- We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness Caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure.

BUILT HIS OWN SEpULCHER.
An Eccentric Austrian in Ca1ifOrnta Makes Preparations for His
 Interment.

In grave built under his own di- 1 rections the body of John Stiyitch. an eccentric Austrian. was laid io rest at Jackson, Cal. Long before death summoned Slivitch the latter designed his own grave, or, more properly speaking. tomb. He spent many days cheerfully drawing up the plans, and with childish delight su- perintended the construction of the narrow mausoleum. When it was completed he laid himself down to die with a sigh of content, says a San Francisco exchange.
 The grave is of ordinary length and width and seven feet deep. It's walls are of concrete and concrete a foot thick lines the bottom. Twelve inches from the bottom were placed four iron bars, upon which rested the coffin. After the coffin had been lowered iron bars were placed in like manner and the same distance from the top, and over them was placed heavy zinc cover, fitting perfectly tight. Over this will now be placed a layer of concrete of the same thick ness as on the walls, and on top will be the marble bearing the name, place of birth, age and date of death
 This manner of burial had been a hobby with Stivitch for long time, and when he made his will he set aside $500 to cover the expense, the same being on deposit in bank of Amador county, to be turned over to the contractor on completion of the work and its approval by a nephew, Andrew Perovich, who is named as eXecutor in the will Stivitch was 73 years old, miner; had lived here many years and had many friends. He leaves an estate of several thou sand dollars, but no nearer relatives than the nephew named.
 The old man had no special disease, but had been failing for months When told that the work on his pc .culiar grave had progressed as far as possible he remarked to Dr. Gall, his physician:
 Doctor if you let me die tonight l will give you s1O0." But it was not to be. He lived eight days longer, during which time many citizens wis tied the cemetery to inspect the rest ing place for all that was mortal of the odd old Austrian.

TOLD BY FOOTPRINTS.
Tsll-Tale Shoes Worn by . Man GA . Party Searching for . Mur-
 derer,

The part played by footprints in the frightful tragedy near Biloxi re- minds me" said New Orleans rail!' road man, relates the Times-Demo- crat, of most remarkable affair which happened good many years ago in south Georgia. The keeper of little store near the Florida line was murdered one night and the place set on fire. Several negroes were suspected and the whole countryside turned out to search for evidence. In the rear of the burned store was . marshy place, in which the footprints of the murderer were plainly discern ible, showing that he had worn . pair of heavy brogans, the right heel of which seemed to have been split in very peculiar manner directly across the middle.
 Among the searchers was a we'll to-do young farmer, and as soon as he saw the footprints he was mortified to recognize the marks of his own shoes which he had on at that very moment. The split heel was the re- suit of chance blow with an ax while cutting wood, and the impress sion in the marshy soil was absolutely unmistakable. The crowd was worked up to a pitch bordering on frenzy, and, realizing his extremely critical position, the young man had presence enough of mind to make some excuse and slip away He went straight home, put on another pair of shoes hid the old ones and rejoined the party
 Two or three days later the crime was traced by certain circumstantial evidence to a negro who worked on his farm. The fellow broke down and confessed and incidentally cleared up the mystery On the night of the murder, according to his story, he had noticed the brogans on the porch of the farmhouse and appropriated them, intending at the time to merely rob the store and fly the country After killing the storekeeper he changed his plans and came home, thinking to divert suspicion by re- maining quietly at work Conse- quently he returne the shoes where he found them.
 After he had made this comics sion the farmer told his own story and produced the tell-tale footgear. Heaven only knows what might have happened had he been caught with them on his feet the first day of the search"

Orientais as Soldiers.

No European nation has succeeded in holding or controlling tropical posses sions without the aid ofnative troops. Moreover, these can be maintained at much smaller cost than white soldiers, not to speak of the great expense of transportation, Two-thirds of the Dutch army in Java is composed of native troops; Spain, before the insur- rection, had over 13.0OO natives doing military service in the Philippines: and England's success in converting the Egyptian fellahs into good soldiers is another example of how apparently poor material can be utilized.
