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 con-
stitntional remedies. Deafness is caused by
an infamed condition of the muchous lining
of the Eustachian Tube When this tube is
infamed you have a rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed
Deafness is the result, and unless the intlam-
nation can be taken out and this tube restored
to its normal condition, hearing will he des-
troyed forever: mise cases out of ten are caus-
ed by Catarrh, which is nothing but an int1am-
ed condition of the mucous surfaces
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness caused by catarrh) that can

American Eitizens In China Think That
Troops Should Be Kept There.
Tien Tsin, Oct. AT meeting Of
American citizens at Tien Tsin the fol-
lowing resolution was adopted.
We, citizens of the United States, deplore
the contemplated withdrawal of a large
part of the United States troops in North
China. We feel the work of the allied
armies is far from accomplished and the
refusal of the American government to take
part therein. is sure to be regarded by the
allies as an unworthy act. and by the
Chinese as sign of Indifference. We urge
our government to carry to an end the
work it has so honorably and efficiently
begun, and to maintain sufficient force
here to secure the protection of American
mercantile and missionary interests until
settlement of the present trouble is ac.
complished.

ECLIPSE OF THE NUN
North Carolina Towns Which
Will be in the Centre of
the Shadow.

Wilmington Dispatch.
A gentleman Of this city had a
talk a few days ago at Rocky
Mount with Prof. Ripley, repre-.
senting the Hartford Scientific
Society, Amherst College. and
Wellesley College. Prof. Ripley
was at Rocky Mount prospecting
for a place at which to establish
headquarters for observing the
eclipse of the sun on May 28th.
He was after a place which
would be in the centre of the
shadow. Rocky Mount answered
the purposes, las do also Wades-
boro aud Southern Pines, ais
though Prof. Ripley finally &C
cepted an offer made him at Nor
folk. He suggested thai Whining
ton people who want to see the
eclipse should go to one of the
three places mentioned.
1t will be one of the grandest
of spectacles. Prof. Ripley has
seen Vesuvlus In action and 9th
err famous sights, but he thinks
the eclipse will have a grandeur
about it that will surpass any
thing that he has seen. At 9
o'clock on the day of the eclipse
darkness will fall like a pail, and
the stars will appear in the sky
as if they had suddenly beer
planted there by some unseer
hand.

1ne Mysterious Shooting of Canaan
Condif in maryland

&onGIH IN staFS issE0
sULOMON's ISLAND. Nd, Sept r.
Capt Littleton T Condif, who was shot
Wednesday night last while asleep in
bed il his house. on Solomon s Island.
Calvert county, died of his wounds at
2;30 o'clock yesterday afternoon. The
bullet passed into his brain through the
right eye, producing paralysis and tn
consciousness. His wife was in oed be-
side him when he was shot. and their
child was in the same room
Tke wife says she was awakened just
before midnight by the report of the fire
arm. and found that her husband was
wounded. She says no one was in the
room at the time except her husband
herself and the child.
Investigation by the authorities failed
10 bring to light any developments cal
culated TO clear up the mystery. No
weapon was found in the room
The victim was not known to have had
any enemies He was a mariner and en-
gsSe1 in the oyster business in Calvert
county. He was regarded as a worthy
citizen of Solomon Island, and he was
about fifty years of age. His wife stated
that he had about 5000 in cash in the
house. This money could not be found
after his death. From this fact it is
supposed th9I FGDDeFy was the motive
for the murder
1t is coniectured that Captain Condiff
was aroused by the robbers entrance
and WAS shot as he raised himself up in
bed while the wife and child slept, and
that the assassin then made his escape
before his presence could be detected
William H HELEN, attorney -at-l law,
