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 constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed
condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it 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 de
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
ing but an inflamed condition of the
mucous services.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case Of Deafness (eaused by
catarrh) that cannot beeured by Halls
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

Calvin Not Poisoned.

The analysis of the San Francisco
health department has decided that
death was not caused by stryehnine in
the case of Charles Calvin, who died at
Overton, Nevada county, Cal, on July
9th last, although evidence of that drug
was discovered in the stomach of the
deceased. II was found that two by
podermic injections of stryehnine had
been administered to Calvin, to keep
up heart action, on the day preceding
his death. The result of the chemists
investigation entirely disproves the
theory of foul play.
II will be remembered that DIR. john
son, the attending physician, and the
widow of Calvin eloped together about
a month after the latter's death. 1t
was this act that led to the thought
that the dead mans end had been UNI
timely. Whatever the crime of the
man and woman in other particulars,
the analysis shows that they were not
murderers.

New Railroad Coming to Reno.

"Well, I'll tell you this. The West
EN- Pacific road can't afford to miss
Reno. 1t energies from weary miles
of mountain to cross desolate miles OF
desert and it certainly must either pass
through a large town on the eastern
slope of the Sierras or build one"
The above is practically what the
chief engineer of the Western Pacific
Railroad Company told w. Webster, a
mining man of this city, who has just
returned from trip through the nor
thern country, where he inspected sew
eral mining properties.
Mr.. Webster says that the Western
Pacific Company has not definitely
settled upon the Beekwith route, but
is now surveying through the Day
Creek pass. The engineering parties
number $50 men and at present have
headquarters at Susanville.
Mr. Webster gathered from CONVEX
sation with the surveyors that the
most practicable and shortest route
that has yet been considered is south
to Reno, thence to the vicinity of Day
ton and directly eastward across the
State to a point two hundred miles
south of Salt Lake.
This is not only perfectly feasible
1 line, but is several hundred miles
shorter than the tortuous course along
f the umboldt.-Journal.

The newspapers report that man
in Carson lately won 500 on 1O-cent
lottery ticket. 1t cannot be true, be-
cause the laws are very strict against
the sale of lottery tickets in Nevada.
However, if it should turn out to be
true, 1 would suggest that the Nevada
State Board of Revenue send out an
examiner over the State to report any
violations of the law.

The teachers institute of Solano
county, Cal, which has been an organ
ization for forty years, at meeting
two weeks ago, adopted a resolution
that the meeting of county teachers in
annual convention is of no practical
benefit. Prof Waits of the Gardner
vile public school fully comedies with
this view, and believes that the money
devoted to county and State institutes
could be much more profitably ex-
pended in sending teachers to two
weeks summer course of lectures at
either of the universities of the coast
This is a question of more than ordin-
airy importance, and deserves consider
alton at the handsof the institute which
meets at Reno next month, 1t is new
point in the education of teachers, and
as such should not be passed idly by.
