Deafness Cannot Be Cured.

reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an intiamed condi-
tiop of the mucous lining of the Eustacian
Tube. When this tube is infiamed you
have a rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when ii is entirely closed, deaf
ness is the result, and unless the infiam-
nation can be taken 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 infiamed condition Of the
mucous surfaces.

RUTLAND RAILROAD CHANGE
New York Central May Lease the
Rutland Road.

Senator Channcey NJ Depew Of New
York, the most prominent Vanderbilt
representative OF the country, has been
elected director Of the Rutland Rail-
road company in place of Wallace G..
Clement OF Rutland, resigned.
Mr.. Clement is brother Of President
Percival W Clement and has been a
director many years. II was also
learned that President Clement has
sold nearly all his stock to DR.. W.
Seward Webb Of Shelburne so that the
latter now has between 90 and 20 per
cent OF the whole. +. w Clement will
probably remain a director, but not
president, although just when the
changes 90 into effect is uncertain.
Mr.. Clement. by selling, undoubted-
" cleared a large amount of money,
for it is stated that he sold for about
ll5 whereas all Of his stock was
bought at 30 or less. The change
probably means the lease of the road
TO the New York Central, which road
now has a majority of the Rutland di-
rectors. The change will not affect
the new Rutland depot project in any
way. Plans are on foot for extensive
additions and for new machinery for
the railroad shops in Rutland.

q, have closed. They dfvulged the feet
that New York Is becoming 'doggier'

the superintendent.
The latter added, Never In the history
o., bench shows here have so many en-
tfies from new exhibitors been received" I"
THE enthusiasm" Mr.. Oldham said, ''is
not confined TO one breed. bat to varieties
that have hitherto not shown popularity.
For instance. the classes for whippets
Basset hounds and toy bull terries will,
/ think. be features OF the show Here
tofore they were confined 10 two or three
exhibits"
The fact that Walter JOHNSON had en-
tered all the st. Bernards which previous
ly had belonged TO Thomas Sheubrooks
OF Baltimore, in his name, disposed of the
rumors that Frank Gould had spent law
ish sums In gaining ownership OF the Bal
timore kennels.
Mr.. Johnston, who had won at New
York and other shows with the Mayor OF
Waterford. and Mr.. Sheubrooks agreed
recently that the opposition was futile
and the last named accepted his rivars
offer. which was a purely private transac-
tion.

He did the mile I'm 2:os, which is the fast
est time ever hung out on the Oakley
track.
Cresceus was paced by two running
horses, and was driven by his owner
George III. Ketcham. After the exhibit
ton Mr. Ketcham said:
"Crescues was never In better condition
than he Is right now, but the track was
soft that IL gave way under his feet
and he could not go along at his usual
gait"
The first quarter was made In 32h the
half in 1:o4la. the three-quarters In 1864.

round bout between Chester Goodwin OF

ter the first round. those who had any
knowledge OF boxing could see that Howe
was not in the game. but he stood up
and took all that was coming TO him,
and that was whole lot. gamely. But he
went down and the referee stopped the
bout In the seventh round. The greater
portion OF the spectators thought that at
least five rounds was quite sufficient for
Goodwin 10 do the trick in. for Howe was
all in at the end Of the third round.
The wrestling bout between Tim Muir
ply of South Providence and Jack Mar
tin OF the North End was an excellent ex-
hibition OF its character. Martin was the
trickiest Of the two, although the contest
was without the shadow OF a foul by
either.

work. and each won a fall. but the deci-
