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 constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube getsinhamed
ing, and when ii is entirely closed Deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation 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 eatarrh,
which rs nothing but an inhamed condition OF
che mucous surfaces.

ROBERT EMMETTs BIRTHDAY.
Senator Tillman Talks to the Clar
Ma Gael.

| Ma Gael.
Under the auspices Of the Clan Na
Gael, the bath anniversary Of the
birth of Robert Emmet was celebrat-
ed at the Academy of Music, in New
York, last Sunday night. According to
an Associated Press dispatch a large
crowd was in attendance. State Sena-
tor Victor J. Bowling presided. Uni
ted States Senator Benjamin r. Till
man. Of South Carolina, delivered the
Grafton.
Resolutions were adopted condemn
ing England's colonial policy, depre-
eating entangling alliances by the Uni
ted States with European nations;
sympathizing with the Beers, protest
ing against the United States govern
ment allowing England to use the Uni
ted States ports for the fitting out of
vessels in which to ship her horses and
mules, and pledging the people Of Ire
land heavy support in their struggle
for freedom.
Senator Tillman was received with
great applause. He said:
II am no orator and if I have any
claim to it, it is because I speak the
truth and fight the devil with fire."
WELL" came a voice from the au-
dience, "if you're not an orator, you're
good fighter"
A little later he said:
II was afraid I would have to post
pone my visit because Of an incident
you all probably recently read about,
that occurred to me In Washington,
but one of your committee came to
Washington and with his Irish elo-
equence made me promise to be on
hand unless was in Jail. Now, here L
am, so take a good look at me, for
am going to talk plainly" Tne senator
then launched into an attack upon
England for trampling upon the Irish
people. For eight long centuries the
Irish have been trampled upon and
murdered by the English" said he,
land it may not be amiss here to state
that chickering's and petty squabbles
among Ireland's own sons have been
responsible for her condition today.
They make grand soldiers for her away
from home, but fail to show their quail
tiles in her own behalf.
Turning from this subject he said in
strenuous tones:
IF being a flunky and aping nobility
and establishing a system that is akin
to England's policy is making Tories
Of us, then think we are there at last,
or at least the government at Washing
ton has got there. England" continued
the senator, "can squint, and, shaking
It's thumb at us, say: Your work In
the Philippines Is as bad as ours in the
Transvaal.' Why have we got such a
government? There Is the rub. Why
do you pass resolutions such as you
nave tonight and on other occasions.
and then go out and vote for those
who are sitting liberty at Washington?
We are losing our love for our institu-
tions, and If we continue thus we will
go the way Of other republics"
Senator Tillman then said the Amer
lean people were slaves to partyism and
could not get along without a "boss,"
who, he predicted, in time would be-
tray the people. >...;

REMEMBER THE DEAD
THE LIVING CARE FOR
THEMSELVES.

wv HEN you remember the dead Of
w your family, you show to the
world that your love for them Is not
buried with the body. It is duty you
owe yourself and to the one that Is
gone, to place a neat Monument or
Tombstone over the last resting place
OF departed loved ones. To do this the
expense Is not great, and 1t shows to
the world that your love for the dead is
as lasting as stone. If you have rela-
tives buried in unmarked graves do not
let 1t remain so, when the expense Of
marking the grave properly Is so small.
Get my prices and see the styles Of
work have to offer you.

Charleston viii Present a Sword.
Charleston special Of March 1, to the
Columbia State: Major Micah Jenkins
will receive a sword instead Of the one
which Colonel Tillman purchased and
refused to allow the president to pre-
sent, after asking him to give 1t to the
distinguished Rough Rider. A number
Of citizens met yesterday and discussed
the advisability Of raising fund for a
sword, being Of the opinion that the
army officer would decline the Tillman
sword, when he had been made aware
of the insult to the president and 1t
happened as they thought. The cost of
the sword has not been determined, but
it will be handsome one. 1t will bear
the inscription which President Roose-
welt will furnish and he will be asked
to present it to Major Jenkins on the
occasion Of his visit to Charleston.
