Chairman's Own Town Omitted.

The Senate and its committees are
funny bodies" remarked Representa-
tive Mercer. chairman OF the Committee
on Public Buildings and Grounds. yes
terday, speaking OF the report of the
Senate committee on the omnibus public
buildings bill. Il cannot understand why
certain changes were made In the House
bill. but the strangest OF all is the
entire omission of the building at
Geneva. n. Y. in the district represent
ed by Mr.. Payne. chairman of the Com
mittee on Ways and Means. That's the
only one that was stricken out alto
eether.
The House committee" he went on,
made up its bill according to well de-
fined plan. giving recognition to cities
OF these classes:
"First-Those where United States
courts were held.
"Second-Those having first class
postofiices with gross receipts OF Si0,-
900 annually.
.'Third-Those being the location OF
internal revenue offices whose receipts
were IN excess OF $500 900 annually
"Fourth-Those containing State uni
versities or prominent colleges. whose
attendance aggregated 400. and having
postal delivery service.
Following out this policy, the com
mittee provided for buildings in some
cities. in the South especially. which
have comparatively small populations.
Some of these, however serve the in
terests of a large population. and others
have suburbs with more residents than
the cities proper. Take Greenville,
Tenn. for instance. Its population is but
/ 81. but in the county are $4,000 people
and United States courts are held there
serving district containing n popula-
ton Of several hundred thousand. The
same thing is true of Batesvlle and
Harrison. Ark, also places OF limited
urban population"

No historical significance attaches to a
statue of Frederick the Great so far as the
United States is concerned, as he was in no
way connected or identified with the discOv
cry, settlement, pacification or progress of the
country, were Lafayette and Rochambeau;
Columbus and Balboa, De Soto and Ponce de
Leon.
The unveing of statues of such illustrious
characters as these in the Capital of the Amer
lean nation carries with it more than mere
sentiment or the extension of the hand Of good
fellowship. Admitting that Frederick the
Great was the greatest soldier, the greatest
military genius and the greatest statesman of
his day, or peradventure, the greatest of Ger
many's great men, no significance can posi-
bly, attach to the presentation and the accept
ance of statue of Frederick the Great by the
United States except sentiment.

Anonymous Letters Sent Senators.


The failure Of the Senate to act
promptly upon the Presidents nomina-
ton Of Mr.. Herbert G.. Sauiers to be
Minister to Cuba, through which Mr.
Squires' chances OF being dean Of the

pardized. is attributed. according to gos-
sip about the Capitol. To anonymous let

China made against Squiers more than
a year ago, and also rejecting upon his
career in the army.
The Squiers nomination was sent to
the Capitol within five minutes after the
President had received notice that &C
ing the position. but 1t was not until
Tuesday that 1t was confirmed.
In the meantime England promoted
her Havana consul general. Mr.. l.. E. c.
Garden. to be minister to Cuba. and he
thereby becomes dean OF the corps at
Havana. There is no material advan-
tage in the position. and. judging from
the events which have recently occurred
in relation TO the position held by Lord
Pauncefote in this country. 1t is not al
ways n wholly desirable honor. but the
peculiar relations between this country
and Cuba made its occupancy by the
American Minister desirable. 1t is
really a case. however, wherein nothing
has been lost save an opportunity.

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 consti-
tutional remedies. Deafness IS caused by an
inlamed condition of the mucus lining OF the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is infiameo
you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hear
Ing, and when 1t is entirely closed deafness is
the result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored TO it's normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out OF ten are caused by catarrh
