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 constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness Is caused
by an infamed condition of the mt
cous lining of the Eustachian tube.
When this tube gets infamed you
have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when 1t Is entirely
closed deafness IS the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be TAX
en- out and this 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.

WRECKS ON The S. A. L.
The VestibuIe Crashes Into u
Train Mt ROckingham-One Man
Killed and Two Fatally Injured.
Another Wreck at WadesbOro.

On Sunday morning abou Z o'clock
the vestibule train on the Seaboard
Air Line, known as the Atlanta
Special had a bad wreck at Rocking
ham. Flagman Herbert Holland was
killed, and Engineer James Robinson
and Jim Crump a colored train hand,
were badly injured and may die.
A freight train had side tracked to
let the vestibule tarin pass and an en-
'gine with one freight car was side
tracked behind 1.-THE special came up
at full speed, and in some u~naccounta-
BILE way it a into the switch right on
to the end of the freight car which
was pulled by the engine just ahead
of it. In turn they were driven against
the freight train in front.
Herbert Holland, was from Sanford,
and formerly ran on the Atlantic
Coast Line between Wilmington and
Sanford. He and Crump were asleep
in a aboose at the time. The mail
agent jumped, or else III would have
been killed as his car was terribly
wrecked. Hhe locomotive of the YES
thule was badly damaged and went
over a twenty-five foot ~embankment.
Sunday afternoon at Wadesboro an
other freight train was wrecked Oh the

the other wreck. A wooden cross beam
on a car fell across the track while the
train was running and caused the cars

HOT STRUGGLE OVER ICE.
Sharp Cutting of Prices by the Two
Charlotte Companies.

For the last w days the fight be-
pany and the Peoples Ice and Fuel
Company, of this city, has been at
tracing a vast deal of interest.
The warfare is over ice; 4 duel be-
tween the icemen who go aroun in the
carts of their respective companies,
glover at one another, and will give ice
away rather than hold it dearer than
their rivals.
The result of the struggle has been
that in two days the price of ice has
dropped from a schedule that ranged
from % to so cents a hundred pounds
to the unprecedentedly low price of
from s 1-3 to % cents a hundred pounds.
And today, if the signs of increased
hostility may be depended upon, ice
may drop to anything or it may be Civ
en- away.
1t is declared that in many instances
ice was given away by one of the COM
panies yesterday; the gift being the ul-
timatum in an effort to undersell.
IF the Standard people want to give
ice away today-and they certainly
made some folks presents of it yester-
day"-said an official of the rival COM
pany last night, why we VIII also give
ice away. Two car play at that game,
and We have simply determined that
those people shall not deliver ice at a
cheaper price t an we will deliver it,"
The first colo cut was made Thurs
day by the PEG )le'S Ice and Fuel Com
pany. They announced that they would
sell ice at the ate of from 10 to 80 cents
on platform delivery, which meant that
they would sell undelivered ice in 800
pound lots at The price named.

possibilities. / am sorry taat I cannot

I feel that this Is my home"
Concerning a possible effort to have
the order revoked. Captain lucas stated
that this is his fifteenth order to
change stations In about fifteen years
an average of about one 4 year. He
said that as he has spent nearly seven
years In Wilmington lie feels that the
war department has shown Linn more
than reasonable consideration. especial
IL as the order sending lin here in 1889
was made with the knowledge that it
would be most agreeable 10 him. he
stated that therefore re feels that he
has no right to complal =. In addition
he stated that orders os4-e published are
rarely revoked. and that n effort now
made to change them would probably
fail.
CAPTAIN Lucas also referred to his
keen sense OF personal loss IN leaving
this city, which he had ON &c regxrd
as n home, and expressed his arpseeia-
ton of the hearty support which the
chamber OF had always given
him in his work.

a fine record. He stated that If viii be
of interest 10 know that he Is a veteran
OF the Santiago campaign and vas one
of the first of that expedition to land on
Cuban shores.
In conclusion Captain Lucas stated
that while he was about ID sever his Of
fetal connection with Wilmington. his
personal ties could never be broken. and
that he expected to spend next Christ
mas here and visit the sity as often
hereafter as possible.
AT the conclusion OF Captain Lucas
remarks he was HEARTH ~applauded.

should adjourn now, so that each MEM

That usually wide-awake and up-to-
lat newspaper. The Charlotte Obser-
yer made a terrible slip-up in it's re-
port of the Watson-Pritchard joint de-
bate at Tarboro last Thursday night.
Its issue of the next day contained an
ccoun OF Senator Pritchard's speech
~telegraphed by its special correspon-
dent. but Mr.. Watson's name was not
mentioned in the report. No one read
ing the account Of the proceedings
would have known that Mr.. Watson
was within a hundred miles OF Tarboro
at that time. The Observer of Sunday
explains the matter by saying that it's
special correspondent, Mr.. Fred B. War
rem t~elegraphed the account of the
speaking and Mr.. Watson's name be-
ing emitting from the report il was sup
posed that he had failed to put in an
appearance and it was too late to make
telegraphic enquiry that night, but It
fails to say why enquiry was not made
the next day and that no notice was
taken of the matter until the paper was
questioned on the subject by The
Greensboro Telegram. The editor of
The Observer makes a very handsome
apology to Mr.. Watson after The Tele-
gram calls the attention of the public
to the complete ignoring of Mr.. Watson
in The Observers report.
