AVENGED AFFRONT 7
To HIS FAMILY.

BATON ROUGE. Nov s.-The cause
of one of the most dramatic shootings
in Louisiana's recent history, when
Judge George X. Favrot last night kill
ed his lifelong associate, DR.. H. H. AL
drich, was partly explained today. Judge
Favrot was a leading figure among
Louisiana's Democratic Congressional
nominees and on Tuesday was elected
by a majority demonstrating unusual
popularity. Both men were married and
occupied respected positions at the
State capital.
Fully a thousand persons attended
the funeral today of DIR. R. H. Aldrich
Meanwhile a host of friends rallied
about Judge Favrot. visiting him at the
Jail, and two lawyers, who have at
times been his political opponents, vol
unteered their services in his defense
Although Judge Favrot maintained
silence as to the cause of the tragedy,
his friends today issued a statement
that "he followed an unwritten law"
acting in the belief that he was aveng-
ing an affront to his family Judge
Favrot's friends also declare that Dr.
Aldrich was forewarned and forearmed
Today the only development was the
resignation of Judge Favrot from his
judicial position. Governor Blanchard
will order special election to fill the
vacancy.

b0N|'S LAST HOPE
IS CRUSHED.

PARIS, Nov S--The final word to-
day in the divorce proceedings brought
by the Countess de Castellane against
her husband was Maitre Bonnet's as
surance of Count Bonis undying affec-
tion for his wife and the demand that
the case be adjourned for fortnight
in order to give the Countess an op-
portunity to reflect upon the advisa-
bi1ity of reconciliation. This the
court refused and adjourned for one
week. when its decision-either the
ordering of an inquiry or the granting
of a divorce-will be handed down.
Today's proceedings were confined
largely to the tilts between opposing
counsel over the charges made yester-
day against Edmond Kelly of counsel
for the Countess. Kelly has denied
these charges Indignantly and makes
the counter charge that the Count him.
self Matched UP conspiracy for the
purpose of making his wife believe
that Kelly had organized plot to
bring about the Counts political de-
struction.
Counsel added that in the event of
a divorce being granted the Count
will ask for permission to see his
children two days each week and a
month in summer and that the Coant-
ess be enjoined from taking the child
rem to America without his consent.
So far as money was concerned, moth
ing would be much altered by a d.
vorce. 1t would only mean hnal
financial ruin for the Count 1t was
impossible for him to meet his out
standing obligations, amounting to
$4,000 a year. The remainder Of his
ancestral inheritance would have to be
sold. If his wife desired to present
him inasuch a light before the world,
he had nothing more to say. Never
tbeless. It seemed only just that he
should be reimbursed the $4,000
which he had obtained from a legacy
and the sale of his share of the an
cestral forest of Bureny and which
was contributed to the household ex-
pense.
Counsel concluded with asserting that
he was convinced that the Countess, IL
free to obey the dictates of her con-
science. would yet consent to recon
ciliation and solemly assured the court
of the Counts respect, esteem and un-
diving affection for his wife.
Maitre Cruppi, for the Countess.
charged the Counts lawyer with seek
ing to divert attention from the issue
at the bar by making an unprecedent-
al and baseiess attack on Kelly. who.

BRITISH MINISTER
DDUUR||AND DDUU|||A|NND RE TIRES,

WASHINGTON, Nov S-Sir Henry
Mortimer Durand. the British Embassa-
dor, today formally notified Secretary
Root that he was about to retire from
the British diplomatic service. The no
tification was a matter of mutual re-
gret to both the retiring ambassador
and the Secretary of State, between
whom there has been the most cordial
relations in the last two years.
1t is understood that Sir Mortimer
will relinquish his position about De-
cember Is. There is some speculation
as to the cause of his retirement, but
the generally accepted reason is that
Lady Durand's Ill health will not permit
her to longer remain in this climate.
She is afflicted with asthma.
Lord Curzon is on his way to this
country, and some think he may sue

Deafness Cannot Be Cured


by local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way
to cure deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deaf
ness is caused by an inflamed
condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is inflamed you have rum b.
ling 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 be 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 of the mucous surfaces.
