DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
nes-, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining
Of the Eustachan Tube. When the
tube is inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed, Doafnese is the re-
sut' and unless the inflammation can
be taken outand the tube returned to
to its normal con dition hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are Caused by Catarrh, which is
nothing but an lnflamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.
We will give One sHundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness Caused by
Catarrh) that cannot be cured by
Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for ciIcu-
lars, free.

FALL TOTHEIR DEATH
TEN PEOPLE KILLED AID MORE
THAN FIFTY INJURED lN
BROOKLYN CHURCH.

New York, Feb. 2S.-Ten persons
We're killed and upwards Of fifty in
iured by the collapse OF the flooring
OF the Fleet Street African Methodist
Episcopal church in Brooklyn. OF
those killed seven were women, two
men and one child
Arrangements had been made to
hold the funeral services Of Sydney
Painter and the auditorium was crowd
ed with 500 persons, of whom the ma
jority were women.
The congregation was waiting in
silence for the arrival of the body
when a splintering of timbers was
heard and in an instant the half OF
the audience floor nearest the door
collapsed, carrying down more than
100 persons, who were crushed in the
wreckage of the flooring.
Out of the wreck ten bodies were
recovered and taken to stationhouse.
OF the injured there are ten in the
hospitals suffering from fractured
limbs, broken bones and contusions,
but none of them is believed to be
fatally injured. The greater portion
of the number of the injured were re-
moved to their homes and their in
juries are of minor character. Death
In nearly every case was due to suf.
Vocation.
