ueafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
way to euro deafness, and that is by consti-
tutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infamed condition Of the mucous lining Of
the EustachiaD Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it IS entirely closed
Deafness is the result, and unless the iuham-
nation can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to it's 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 surface.

NO TROUBLE
To Be Entertained at
the Colonial.
Jacobs Stock Company Pleased
With Coon Hollow"

If the opening performance may be
taken as a criterion of what may be
expected. at the Colonial theatre this
week, the house will be crowded at
every performance as it was Monday
night, for the Jacobs Stock company
leaves very few dull movents for its
audience. The piece Monday night
was "Coon Hollow" vivid melo-
theatre goers. The piece is excellently
staged, and there Is nothing lacking
on the part of those who are present
ing it to indicate that Coon Hollow"
is merely one of many plays which
this company has at tongue and
fingers end.
Frances Hickman makes charming
Georgia. and Mary Asquith is flesh
and-blood Clyde Harrod, vindictive
and tragic as the real daughter Of
strife and mountain feuds whom she
represents. Philip Maher as Diogenes
Sharp, the happy-go-lucky prospector,
makes much fun, aided by Jean Bee
myer, the antiquated spinster who
tries constantly land successfully at
length to ensnare him for husband.
Carroll Michael makes lovable Re-
mus, and the show has no weak
places. When it is considered that
the company Is playing repertoire,
the presentation is unusually good.
Between the acts live specialties are
introduced and there are scarcely any
waits. Tonight the English melodrama,
'In His Power" will be presented.
The Jacobs company Will be at the
Colonial the remainder of the week,
with the exception Of Wednes, with
daily matiness.

West Market st. To Be
Paved
From Kuder Ave. to Corporation
Line.

West Market st. Is to be paved.
from Kuder ave. to the west corpora
tion line. This is important news for
the citizens of that neighborhood, be-
cause the agitation for Improvement
of the street has been on for years,
and the matter has been before Coun-
Gil for nearly two years. Although
resolutions and ordinances have been
passed from time to time the prop
osition has been held up as frequently,
and when Council was in favor of it,
1t seems as il the Board was not. On
Monday evening Council passed an
ordinance providing for the issuing of
bonds amounting to $25,000 to secure
the money necessary to make the i'm
provement, and it is designed to have
the street graded and slagged this
year.
Heretofore, the matter has been op-
posed by City Commissioner Houser
upon the grounds that the city should
see to 1t that all of her downtown
streets are paved before those in the
outskirts of the city. The other three
Commissioners have been in favor Of
the improvement, and Mr.. Mouser
stated that he would not attempt to
hold 1t up any longer.

stated to reporter for the Demo

Councilman Jacobs voted against
the improvement, and in explaining
his position, said that he believed
South Broadway and South High SITS.
should be paved before the western
section of Market st. 1t was stated
that the city's share of the expense
of paving High st. and Broadway
would be about $4,000 in each case.
Mr.. Payne said: "We haven't paved
them on account Of lack of money
"Well, how can you ever expect to
get enough money on hand for i'm
proving these streets when you're
continually expendng it upon Other
thoroughfare?' asked Dr. Jacobs.
Mr.. G. F. Kasch who Is very much
| interested in having the western enc
of Market st. paved, stated to the
Councilmen that bonds had been filed
to take care Of any shortage in the as
thoroughfares? asked Dr. Jacobs.

expected 20 sail Immediately for Eu-

COMMENTS ON
RHODES WILL.

London, April 5--The London morn
ing papers comment in various terms
Of eulogy on the remarkable career and
the munihcent requests Of Cecil
Rhodes and the strong personality dis
played in his testamentary DISPOSE
tons.
Seldom says the Daily Chronicle,
has a human document Of more cur
ious interest been given TO the world.
All the romance of his career his
passion Of patriotism, his ideal Of pub
lie service and his conception Of the
use OF money as a means Of enforcing
his ideas are stamped indelibly on this
testament
Tho Daily Mail says. 1--WE venture to
think that the testament Of Cecil
Rhodes win pass into the story of his
life as the greatest and noblest deed
he ever accomplished, The document
itself so full of lofty Ideals and noble
aims, shows that, business like and
practical as he was, Cecil Rhodes was
one Of the finest dreamers and think
ers Of this or any other age
The Morning Post says Though he
is dead yet he liyeth. for the best and
greatest in Cecil Rhodes is imperish-
ably preserved In the monument he
built TO himself"
The Standard comments upon the
striking mixture Of old fashioned sem
timent and intensely modern feeling
exhibited in the testament This pa
per expresses the opinion that the fan
tastic rules laid down for the election
OF scholars are likely to lead to tn
Development Of priggishness, and trusts
that some means viii be found to elude
these rules which, the paper says,
seem better fitted to figure in Rous-
seau's Emile" than In the practical
modern world.
Referring 10 this subject, the Daily
Telegraph says;
Even more striking than the prince
ly munlhcence Of the requests Is the
hgh imperial tone in which the dead
empire maker announces his intentions
and desires Plato declared that the
perfect state would never be realized

Cave-in in Fast Colusa Mine.

Butte, Mont. April 5.--A serious cave
In In the 300 foot tunnel Of the East
Colusa mine last night on lower Main
street threatens the destruction Of
many dwellings and endangered the
lives Of score OF miners. There Is a
gap now a hundred feet long and is
constantly enlarglng, vast chunks Of
surface falling off into the depths Of
the mines
The ground Is sandy and the waters
Of Silver Bow creek seeping through
the surface have gradually weakened
the supports of the tunnel and dlsnte-
grated the upper portions of the mine.
There is every danger of number
OF dwellings being engulfed, At an
early hour this morning one house Is
on the brink Of the immense hole with
every indication Of going down. The
barn and fences surrounding already
have disappeared. The creyasse fol-
lows the course Of Silver Bow creek,
which fact accounts for no buildings
being directly over the cave-in.

to the Herald. The entire royal family
shrink from the bare idea Of the ces-

But the only person who really
counts and has direct influence is the
King. This monarch has ever SUBJ
ordnated his private desires and sentl-
ments to the policy OF the interests Of
his country. In the present case he
has acted as he has always done. His
feelings are repugnant to the sale, but
patriotism, the calls OF polltlco-econ-
omlc convenience and the oyerwhelm-
Ing vote Of the fokthing have caused
the king to side yith- the people. In
spite Of his personal sentiments and
those OF his entire family he is for the
sale and has given his approval
Dr. Deuntzer, minister of foreign at
fairs considers that the upper house
scarcely will dare to wipe out the
enormous majority OF the lower house,
but viii try to save It's dignity by pro-

of the Islands. This DR.. Deuntzer and
his colleagues in the government might
