Deafness Cannot be Cured

By local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portions
of the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deaf
ness is caused by an infamed
condition of the mucous lining Of
the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is intiamed you have rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed,
Deafness is the snlt, 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,
which is nothing but an inflamed
condition the mucous surf faces.

JapS Lose DESTROYER.

Toxic, May 1.-THE Japanese dis
patch boat Miyako was destroyed in
Kerr bay by striking submerged mine.
The Miyako was lost while assisting
IN the operations of clearing the Rus
sian mines from Kerr Bay northeast of
Iallnwan bay, on which Port Dalny is
situated. Admiral Kataoka, com.
handing the third squadron, returned
there Sunday with a detachment of his
squadron, protecting two flotillas of
torpedo boats which had been detailed
to complete sweeping the harbor by the
removal OF mines. Five mines were
discovered and exploded and the work
was being suspended for the day when
the Miyako struck an undiscovered
mine, which exploded with tremendous
force under her stern, ON the port side,
and inflicted immense damage to the
hull.
The Mlyako sunk in 20 minutes. Two
sailors were killed and 25 men we're
wounded. The rest of the crew res
cued. The news of the loss of the Mi
yako has been sorrowfully received
here. The dangerous character of the
work IN Which the ship was engaged is
generally appreciated, but it was
thought the loss of torpedo boat, No.
40, under similar conditions would
serve as warning to those engaged in
the work to exercise the greatest care.
Admiral Katakao reports that the
Russians withdrew from Robinson
point, north of Kerr bay, which adj
joins Talienwan, May 10, but they
erected temporary fort on height
northeast OF Taku mountain, where
they mounted six guns and constructed
protecting trenchments. The vessels
OF Admiral Katakao's squadron shelled
the Russians throughout Sunday. but
the latter stubbornly retained their
position. The Japanese flotillas while
sweeping the bay were exposed to the
Russian fire all day, but continued the
work uninjured.
When the Japanese torpedo boat, No.
49, was destroyed May IL, in Kerr bay
"hlle removing Russian mines, seven
men were killed and seven wounded.
The No. 48 was the first war ship lost
by Japan during the war. The Miyako
was one OF the warships that took part
IN the operations at Kerr bay, Talien-
wan bay and Blackney bay the day No.
10 was destroyed. The Miyako was a
steel cruiser of 1900 tons displacement
and 6l31 indicated horsepower, COM
pleted In 1901 and having an estimated
speed Of 20 knots. She was 81 "a feet
long and 36 feet beam and drew 1917

coRTELYoU FOR CHAIRMAN.
Will Probably Handle Republican
CampajQn,

Washington, May 1S.-It is PROP
able that Secretary Cortelyou of the
department of commerce and labor Will
be the chairman of the republican ma
tional committee. 1t has been definite
ly learned that the matter has been
considered by the president and the
secretary, and one in close touch with
affairs today indicated that there was
strong probability Of this arrange
ment going through.
AS secretary to the late President
Mckinley and during the earlier years
of President Roosevelt's administra-
ton, Mr.. Cortelyou's acquaintance with
political conditions and public men in
the business and political world be-
came extensive.
Secretary Cortelyou, when seen, de-
clined to discuss the semi-official an
nouncement of his selection as national
republican chairman, but close friends
who have attempted to engage him in
a discussion of the subject during
the past few days declare that they
were so unsuccessful as to create the
impression in their minds that the
tender had been made.
Should he be selected to manage the
coming campaign, he will resign from
the cabinet. James r. Garfield, chief
of the bureau of corporations of the
of commerce and labor,
is spoken of as the new cabinet Of
ficer in the event of Secretary Cor
telyou's retirement.

The accident came as a climax to

school, representing sophomores, jun

Thomas A. Bonser and Miss Elizabeth
MacKay, the teachers, left for the lake
to study the fora there.
Arriving at Occur d'Alene City the
party divided into two section and
started across the lake in launches.
Miss MacKay was on the Bonnie
Doone with young Pegelow, while Mr..
Bonser rode on the Reliance.
The boats were about 40 feet in
length and both of practically the
same size. The deck of the Bonnie
Doone stood about one foot above
water. 1t extended out some distance
from the cabin both at the stern and
in front, and along each side was a
walk about eight inches or one foot
wide. A canopy extending over the
deck was supported by posts.
The launches started for Mica bay,
where the party disembarked. had
lunch, and spent, several hours roam
ing about picking flowers. Then the
two boats proceeded on toward Beauty
bay. Both were well out from shore,
In the deep water and were just round

He was hanging on to one of the
