CATARRH.

AS the skin covers the outside Of the
body, so the mucus membrane lines the
inside of the body. 1t lines the nose, the
mouth, the throat, the bronchial tubes,
the air-cels, the nsophagus, the bowels,
the gall bladder, the Kidneys, the womb,
etc. Taking cold In any region of this
lining mucous membrane causes an irri-
tation of the locality, which IS always
known in medical parlance as catarah of
that part of the organism, Hence we
have catarrh Of the head, catarrh OF the
throat, eatarrh Of the lungs, Of the st0m-
ache, OF the bowels; Of the bladder, of
the womb, etc.
ACUTE CATARRH.
The acute form Of catarrh Is always
that congested condition Of the mucous
membrane which takes place immedi-
ately upon taking cold.
CHRONIC CATARRH,
Chronic catarrh OF the nose Is a thick
ened condition Of the mnc0us msmbrano,
following the acute stage Of the disease.
After acute catarrh has continued for
two weeks IL naturally becomes chronic.
At first the membrane in chronic catarrh
is but slightly thlckened; but, as time
goes on without curing the disease, the
thckening continues until the mem
bfane may be four or five times as thick
as in health. And in rare cases the
hypertrophy (thlckening) continues un-
Til the opposite surfaces, covered by mu-
cous membrane, at some points meet
and entirely close the nostrls so that
breathing can take place only through
the mouth.
DEAFNESS.
One Of the greatest causes Of deafness
Is catarrh, the mlcous falling into the
throat causes an inflammation which OK
tends back through the Eustachian
tubes which Is channel Of cOmmunlca-
tlon between the tympanum (or drum Of
ear and the upper part OF the phrrynX
The object Of this IS TO convey air to the
drum Of the ear, as without air. no sound
can be produced The medlcatod yap0r
Is forced back by holding the nose and
blowing,

Contest over VIII.

Attorney Harlow Pease, of Water
town, acting in behalf of James and
Joseph Brooks, filed objections in court
here last Tuesday, to the admission to
probate of the will of the late Ann
Brooks, of the town of Emmett. Applica-
tion had been made by Edward Brooks
for hearing the proofs Of the will, Skin
ner & Thauer, of Watertowr, being his
attorneys. Last Tuesday was the date
fixed for hearing the proofs, but
before hearing came on the objections
were filed as follows:
First. That said instrument was not
duly executed by the said Anna Brooks
as her last will and testament in the
manner provided by law.
Second. That at the time of the
execution Of said instrument the said
Anna Brooks was not Of sound mind
and had not sufficient mental capacity
to make d Will.
Third That the execution of said
instrument was procured by undue
influence exercised over and upon
said Anna Brooks by Edward Brooks.
Fourth. That said instrument was
not, and is not the last will and
testament of said Anna Brooks.
In addition to the filing of the OBJ
jections to the will, an application
was made by all the heirs, except
Edward Brooks, for the appointment
of Joseph Brooks as special admins
traitor. The petition alleges that the
personal property owned by Mrs.
Brooks at the time of her death
amounted to about $4,000. The will
which is objected to, was executed
March 1, 1900, and was witnessed
by Nicholas Thauer, j. B. Murphy
and Chris. Becker, of Watertown,
Mrs. Brooks died March 5, four days
after the will was made.-Juneau

The Heinrich Recital.

The song recital given at Concordia
Opera house last evening by Max
Heinrich and his charming daughter,
Miss Julia. was one of the most artistic
and altogether pleasing musical enter
tainments ever heard here. A splen-
did audience filled the house and a
most gratifying reception was ac-
corded the singers. Mr.. Heinrich is
certainly a marvel; he is n class all
by himself and possesses such mag
netism and descriptive ability which
bring him so closely in touch with his
hearers that we are held spell bound,
as it were. His voice is finely modu-
lated and extraordinarily sympathetic
and he puts his very soul into his art,
His graceful accompaniments, too,
add much to the effect of his work.
He makes an instantaneous hit with
those who have never heard him be-
fore, while with all who are familiar
with his rare performances he has long
held warm place. Miss Heinrich
rendered valuable support to her IL
lustrious father and her splendid
achievements stamped her as singer
of much promise. Her voice is rich
mezzo- soprano and shows artistic
training. In the duets she was con-
sidered at her best. AS ballad singers
the Heinrichs perhaps have no super
iors and they will always afford the
highest entertainment to all who en-
Joy this form of music

The Orchestra Concert.

Few of our people, perhaps, realize
what a rich treat is in store for them
next Thursday evening, On the occa-
sion of the orchestra concert of the
Amateur Musical club. 1t is years
since full orchestra has been heard
here and the work of the orchestra
on that evening will be a revelation
to many. Those who have had occa-
sion to be present at any of the re-
hearsals recently have expressed great
surprise at the proficiency of the
players. A great amount of hard
work has been done, and the Amateur
Musical club certainly should be en-
couraged in its efforts. The least our
people can do in this regard is to at
tend the concert in liberal numbers,
and judging from the enormous ad-
vance sale a generous patronage is as
sured The club has spared no ex-
pense in providing a frst-class concert
in evey way Beside the orchestra
numb bers, Miss Marie Carter, a Chi
cago soprano, a singer of exceptional
ability, will be heard in several solo
numbers, with Mrs. johanna Hess
Burr, the removed artist, at the piano,
a Steinway grand. A cello solo by
Robert Prengel, of Milwaukee, will
also be introduced, which will provide
an interesting and varied program.
The orchestra numbers have been Sc
lected with a view to crest the
general public, and are of a popular
nature, as will be seer from the pro-
gram below. Tickets can be secured
at the drug store of Schempf & Schulz,
where seats can be reserved. The
prices are very low, only so, 35 and

Special Council Meeting.

Friday evening a special meeting of
the common council was held for the
purpose of acting upon the annual re-
port of the finance committee as to
their final settlement with the city
clerk. The report, which showed a
total balance in all funds, on March
81, of $34, 1896, was adopted and
ordered printed.
The city attorney presented a writ
ten opinion to the effect that the cost
of constructing the proposed sewer on
Washington street be paid out of the
fund of the sewerage district in which
such sewers are to be located. Since
no district fund exists. the council
ordered the cost charged against the
general sewerage fund.
An ordinance was introduced and
passed under suspension of the rules
requiring the city attorney to codify
and compile from time to time all city
ordinances passed by the council, in
such manner that they may be
printed and be bound in book form.
The council expressed it's apprecia-
tion of the ability and impartiality
displayed by Mayor CRUDE in dis
charging his duties as presiding Off
Ger the past year, and his honor in
turn expressed his thanks for the rec
ognition. Aldermen Burke, Hartwig
and Wertheimer made short address
es appropriate to the passing of the
old council, which concluded the final
meeting.

Stole a Wheel.

Saturday afternoon young man
who subsequently, gave his name as
Harry Barnes, and his residence as
Chicago, came into William Weber's
hardware store and inspected the line
of bicycles. He picked out one to his
liking and asked to try it, permission
being given him to do so. He rode
up Main street, and not returning in a
reasonable space of time, the police
were notified aud an effort made to
apprehend the thief. 1t was supposed
the cnlprit proceeded eastward, and
acting on this, Chief of Polio Block
and Oscar Weber gave chase on an
eastbonnd freight which left the juno
tion early in the evening, the train
men agreeing to stop the train if any
one with a wheel was sighted on the
track. When within two miles of
Oconomowoc the engineer discovered
two men with bicycle and they were
arrested upon the wheel being identi-
fed by Mr.. Weber. One of the men
was Barnes and he vas held by Justice
Stacy.for trial before the circuit court,

IOWA PRESS COMMENT.
Replace the Broom.t,clks.

Sioux City Journal: A bill has been
introduced in the house of representa-
tives providing for the re-arming of
the national guard with Krag-Jorgen-
sen rifles to be issued by the war de-
Partment and to remain the property
of the United States while used by the
various state militia organizations. The
measure is practical one. The day
of the old Springfield as a fighting
weapon has passed. The guard might
as we'll be supplied with broom sticks
for drilling purposes as with the old,
short range, large caliber rifles. This
lesson wassl learned by all the volunteer
regiments in Luzon. Owing to the
poor craftsmanship and the lack of
courage upon the part of the Filipinos
the lesson was not a very expensive
one,but there should be no necessity
of a repetition of it, with possibly seri-
GUS consequences. If the national
guard is to be maintained as fighting
organization it should be provided with
modern fighting weapons. Every cent
spent for ammunition and every hour
devoted to target practice with the old
weapons is virtually wasted.
