CADETS LOSE AT RICHMOND.

The Virginia Military Institute and
the Georgetown College football teams
met on the g,idiron at Richmond last
Saturday, and plai ed clean, scientific
game before an interested crowd OF
1900 spectators, in which the Cadets
were defeated by score OF II to III.
Little smuggling was INDUCED 10, and
only one player was injured to any
considerable extent. McCabe, left
half for the V. NJ. l., in mix.up sus-
tanned an injury to his rib broken
in the game with the Univerity OF Vlr-
ginia several weeks ago, and was forced
to retire. The Richmond Timas, in q
lengthy report of the game, has the
following to say;
"On the start the soldier boys APP
pearsd to have everything their own
way, but as was proven later, the older
heads and heavier men from GEORGE
town were sizing up the tactics OF the
Virginians and udying their methods,
aud with few exceptions, after the first
touchdown and up to the last one, the
boys from the District OF Columbia had
things pretty we'll mixed up.
"rhe V. NJ. I. boys put up good Of
fensive work, but were outciassed on
defensive, strange as it might seem,
Georgelown's superior weight probably
helping that team in defensive Had
not one of the V. M. I. players been on
"off side" when goal was kicked in the
last half, the score would have been II
to IL, but that error cost bis team one
point, and the cLre was II to 10 when
the game was called on account of
darkness"
The Richmond News of the 18th
says:
"Of course, every one in Richmond
was full of sympathy last evening for
the defeate]V. NJ. 1. champions in the
ball game-only lost, We are glad to be
assured, by reason of an unlucky mis-
take on their part, which gave the
game into the hands of the George
town boys. Of one thing-the fact
that the ca lets were sweetly and
amply consoled and condoled with by
their fair friends in town-there is no
earthly doubt"

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by loc1l applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one wsy to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamc
condition of the m lcuous lining of the
eustachian tube. When this tube gets
inAamed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed deafness is the result q,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tuba restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an inAamed condition OF the
mucuous surfaces.
