no END TO THE DEAD.
Many Bodies Being Recovered From the
Debris al Galveston.

Galveston. Tex, Oct. 13 1t is
five weeks to-day since the great
storm, but there seems to be no end
to the finding OF cOrpSes. This week
an average OF more than twenty
bodies a day have been recovered.
While most of the debris has been
turned over by the workmen, it is
believed there are still several hun
dred dead buried in the wreckage.
The health of the city strange as it
may appear, was never better.
A survey of the West Bay is being
made by the representatives of the
Salvage associations for the purpose
of taking the British steamship
Roma out through San Luis Pass,
if the experts think such an under
taking can be successfully accom-
plished. The Roma is the vessel that
went crashing through three rail-
road bridges during the recent hurri-
cane. To get her to sea via San Luis
Pass, she will have to be fioated over
about twenty-five miles of shadows
and across the reefs at Deer Island,
Caronkaway and San Luis light
houses. If the attempt is made to
save the vessel by this method the
will be one OF the most
noteworthy in marine annals

Issuing OF IA certificate OF indebted
ness for 5000, 1000 in lieu of the prin-
clpal and interest. 1t is easily seen,
however, from the foregoing, and
which the records show, that this
S11s,235.35 had been paid by James
b. Eads in 1866 for the school fund
OF S661, ,96196, and had been left
lying in the vaults as Cancelled bonds,
and not in cash, as contended bv the
GlObe-Democrat
''The fact that the interest up to
1872 on the original amount Of
SG61 ,967.96 stock was included IN
| the certificate of Indebtedness shows
this. The report OF the auditor i'll
1870 is the first time this S71S,-
23o.31 appears as credited to the
school fund, and then iii the shape of
the 100000 certificate of indebted :
ness, which is the principal and inter
est in the state bonds which James
b. Eads paid for the state bank stock
purchased by him in 1866, and which
bonds were Cancelled by the republi-
cans.
1T is useless TO recount the growth
OF the school fund of Missouri and
its Investment in state certificates of
Indebtedness. This has been done
many times in this campaign The
school fund proper now amounts to
$3, 1oS, 900 in state certificates OF in
debtedness, drawing ) and 6 per cent
interest. That this is a better in
vestment than United States Orstate
bonds and yields the school children
much more is sapparent.
"The editorial recites this: These
certificates are exclusively a demo-
cratic invention and there is nothing
like them in any other state The
writer OF the editorial betrays his
ignorance by this statement The
school funds of Illinois, " iscOnsin,
Michigan and Iowa are invested in
exactly the same manner and are
called certificates of Indebtedness,
bonds of the state beingcanceled and
the states certificates of indebted
ness issued in lieu thereof
'1n another editorial reciting how
the schools lost their bonds, the
statement is made that $10,612. so
in commissions was paid by the dem
ocrats i'll wiping out the public school
fund. This issanOther misstatement
of the Globe. The gentleman who
received this big commission was the
attorney general, who was a repub-
lican, and it was for collecting the
dividends accruing on the bank |
stock which James B. Eads pur-
chased. In his report the late W. Q. |
Dalmyer, who was state treasurer at |
that time, recites the fact that it was |
paid over his protest"

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED


DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED
by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased rortion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that is ~ constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused
by an infamed condition of the
mucous lining Of the Eustachian
tube. When the tube gets inhamed
you have rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing. and when it is en-
tirely closed deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and the 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 infamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dol

states in which. the consent of the
governed Is disregarded and manhood

$50 far as my observation goes, I
think that the people of this country
receive the issue of imperialism as an
Internal humbug and fraud and bare

believe that there is an intelligent man

Delegates to the Catholic Union, which

afternoon at Satolli Hall, Second street,

the meeting promises to be an interest

names have been mentioned thus far for
the Presidency, Hon. Edward ]. McDer-

whom would make an able executive. as
both enjoy the confidence and respect of
the entire community.
The movement for Catholic federation
has received great impetus during the
past few weeks, and State and CITY unions
are in process of formation upon the lines
laid down by Bishop McFaul, of Trenton.
in his letters and addresses to the Ancient
Order of Hibernians and knights of

With the proper organization here il
would not be long till steps would be
taken toward the erection of a memorial
hall and building that would be credit

IT'S said that a new sapphire mine has
been discovered in the Rocky Mountains,
but as that is very elaborate territory,
comprising few thousand miles, 1t would
not be we'll to go searching for this particu

more money than brains to spare to sud-
denly start fad for sapphires on the
market Sapphire brooches, bracelets,
feathers in sapphires for the hair, tied in
ribbons of sapphire, all are now the rage

Heretofore it has been difficult matter
to decide between married and unmarried
ladies at functions wherein many women
we're present. The wedding ring alone
can not always testify to the wearer's
having assumed a partner for life, since
at most of these affairs gloves are worn.
Now comes a change. In the European
capitals it's said that aigrettes, flowers
or other helps to adornment must be worn
on the right side of the corsage by mar
ried women and on the left by unmarried
ones. This will constitute a difference
and must be observed. Matron and
maiden will thus be recognized imme-
diately, perhaps to the discomfort Of not

Would it not be blessing to many of

boys could be instituted among us,
where the boys could have athletic sports
such as obtain in the Y. M. c. A. of this

here to contribute toward starting such,

charging a small fee monthly to each

Fourteen small, fine feathers of the
moa were received lately at the National
Museum from New Zealand. Hitherto
there were only cast of an egg and the
tibia of the moa, now extinct, to be seen
at the museum. These feathers are pre-
sumably from the neck of the dinornis,
or moa, and are from two to four inches
in length and slightly curly. Great in
terest is attached to the possession Of
these remains, so few being left after the
hunters of ancient days. The dinornis
was from ten to twelve feet high and
weighed nearly 1000 pounds. Being
very clumsy, they could be easily dis
patched by the spears which men used in
the early days. They gradually disap-
peared, until only few remains are now
to be found, some in the British Museum,
others in New Zealand, the native home
of the moa, and the small specimens sent
our museum recently from New Zealand.
