A Sound Advics.

A number OF people come home
from tn. seaside quite deaf, and
very many if not deaf are much
harder of hearing than when they
left home.
The cause OF this is blowing the
nose after bathing.
OF course, Que blows his noss be-
cause there is some salt water in it,
which makes him uncomfortable.
This water he forces into the little
Eustachian tube that runs from be-.
hind the nose to the ear. Here the
water remains for days, and the
PARTICLES OF salt aet up iufsmma-
tion. The next step is that the
Eustachian tubes get blocked and
remain more or Less 30 permanently,
causing partial deafness.

time after you bathe b. fore blow.

lose interest on th -ir money for a

The drought en- the Hamakua and

suits. Experienced sugar planters
from the districts say that even ifit
started raining now, there would
be no hope for crop for the n~xt
two years. 1t is very gloomy ont.
look especially with the forest fire
spreading every day and the very
soil burning like peat. And the
fire is now far beyond human con-

a similar experience, but then it

market and all kinds of vegetables

soon the fine horses in the city will

commonly ussd as they are in all

- - ---------------- OPERA HOUSE FIRE.
Walker Whiteside Loses Some VaIu-
 able Property.

Kansas City. February 1.-The total de- struction by fire last night of the old Coates opera house caused an aggregate loss of $15O,OOO. The building was valued at $75,OOO, the furnishings at $5O,0O0 and the property of the Walker Whiteside Company, which had just begun a weeks engagement was valued at $25,00O. The opera house and con- tents were insured for but $40000, while Whiteside carried absolutely no fire protec- ton.
 MT. Whiteside lost, in addition to his trunks and properties, several valuable manuscripts of plays that were to have been produced shortly. The company ar rived here yesterday. and the entire cos tunes and property for Hamlet" "Heart and Sword and Eugene Aram," were de- stroyed. Manager Snyder had intended having the property insured today. /
 It is not yet known whether the opera house will be rebuilt. It is covered by a mortgage held by eastern people, and It was stated that they may direct to collect the insurance and let it apply on the mortgage
 Woodward and Burgess, of the Audi torium Theater, who also leased the Coates mousse, have turned the former theatre over Tor the Bernhardt engagement, which was booked for the Coates house Monday night

 ARCHBISHOP CHAPPELLE
Declines to Give Out Statement Con-
 cerning Friars.

Manila, February 1. - Archbishop Cha belle, in response to the request of the cor respondent of the Associated Press for a statement of his position on the question or the friars said today that he must de- cline to talk at the present juncture. He considered that the time was inopportune and might cause embarrassment to the United States government and the commis- sion concerning pending matters, of which he could not speak.
 At a public session of the commission President Taft declared the satisfaction of the commission over the fact that the gov erning body of the Federal party had unanimously subscribed to what all had individually expressed, namely, that re- ligious issues be kept apart from the party.
 Speaking of the provincial government bill, President Taft said communication had come from the military Governor to the effect that some of the provinces were ready for the establishment of civil gov ernment. At present President Taft said the provincial government would be sub ordinated to the military and the eXecu- tive.

He said, You can telegraph that it is pure invention There is not one word of truth in it. It is the same old song"
 The story circulated that an order was recently issued forbiding the giving to for eigners of contracts for Russian railroad material and restricting foreign orders in other departments is also authoriatvely denied

Convict Committees Report.

When the committee reports that extravaganza, incompetency and gross carelessness characterized the conduct of the convict bureau, and the chair man of the committee, MT. Brooks, signs the report protesting in writing that it is not definite enough in some respects and not emphatic enough in others-is too conservative in short it is plain the convict system has been carrying as much politics to the square inch as the University has.
 The testimony has not been printed. It will make big book, and it will be, 1t seems, very interesting book to tax payers at least The sum and substance ducted for political purposes in every respect in which it could be so utilized It's pay roll was increased in order ''to discharge political debts or to secure political sefvices in the future; cam paign assessments were levied, and ex- travagance crept in at all points. The cotton mill of the State is rusting in idleness; the State farms, unlike those of Mississippi, are "yawning sinks" and the hand of the politician is everywhere seen in the system.
 All members of the committee, in- cluding Chairman Brooks, agree in ask ing for a careful reading of all the tes- timony wrung, as they say, from reluct- ant witnesses. Chairman Brooks says the whole case can be fully understood only through reading of all the tes timony.
 The comimttee has, beyond doubt rendered the State great service, and Governor Sanford is supplementine and completing the work by naming g board of inspectors who will not toucf politics with forty-foot pole, who vii have an eye single to lne good of tht State, who will drive out rottenness ant extravaganza and incompetency. Tn, State is fast coming to better days.

An Extra Session.

The administration organs are de- manding-fairly bowling for-an extra session. Any old ground will answer. But their favorite excuse for the call ing of an extra session is either the Cuban constitution, or the need of civil rule in the Philippines. They cannot bear the thought that the Cubans shall be kept waiting an unnecessary mo- ment, so sensitive has their honor and consciences become. The pledge, they go on to say, should be kept on the spot. They consider the subject pressing one that should be attended to at the earli- est day possible. And then there are the Filipinos, and Aguinaldo-shall they be kept waiting? Of course not. It would be terrible to keep them waiting.
