pendent mine was held to be in equal

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-
tlopal remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition Of the mucous Inning of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have rumbing sound or imperfect hear
ing, 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 destroyed forever;
five cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an infamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.

Special cable Despatch to THE suN.

speeta, Gable Despatch to THE son.
LONDON, April 28-Medical science seems
powerless to stem the progress Of two
terrible scourges, the plague and the sleep
ing sickness, or beriberi. During March in
India the plague increased rapidly in every
province and reappeared in a district from
which it was supposed to have been ban
ished. Bengal has been reporting 5000
deaths a week and Calcutta had forty deaths
in one day in March. Bombay has $50
deaths every day, Matters are equally bad
in the central provinces, in spite Of the
splendid efforts to crush the disease by
segregation, incubation, DC.
The sleeping sickness lie proving equally
deadly in tropical Africa and has now
reached the west shores Of lakes Mweru
and Tanganyika. where the natives are
dying by the thousand, British Central
Africa is threatened, and there is every
reason to fear that the disease in time will
reach the thickly populated country. MIR.
Whyte, chief Of the scientific department
Of the Colonial Office. thinks the spread
Of the disease is chiefly duet the increased
facilities Of transport under British rule.
The natives are now constantly movin 6
whereas in the old days Of tribal wars they
did not move far from the native villages.
Then a man who was attacked with the
disease was taken to a forest and killed.
A similar reason Is given for the rapid
spread OF the plague in India, where the
railway, which is used more and more by
the natives. enables the plague to spread
a hundred miles in a week, where formerly
it took two or three years.

SHALL THEY Be DIVORCED?
SERIOUS QUESTION RAISED BY

Sir Gorell Barnes Decides That Unfalthful-

From the Court-SeW English Views.
Special cable despatch TO THE Sun

Special Gable Despatch 10 THE Sun.
LoNroN, April 2s-The British Judges
this week ventilated their opinions on the
English divorce law. under which a woman
must prove cruelty as we'll as unfaithf1lness
in order TO secure a divorce.
Judge Deane in a case where only one act
Of cruelty on the part Of the husband was
proved gave public warning that one act
did not constitute cruelty, for a man might
he guilty Of a solitary act Of cruelty through
temper and be sorry afterward. 1t might
also lead to the putting forward Of trumped
up charges. A decree would therefore be
refused in the future unless there had been
two specific acts If cruelty, and in this
case the charges would have TO be sup
ported by corroborated evidence. In short.
as one commentator remarked, husbands
In the future will, like dogs. be allowed one
bite before they are anenable 10 the aw.
An important pronouncement is that OF
Sir Gorell Barnes, president Of the Divorce
Court. in a case where g wife applied for
divorce on the grounds Of unfaithfulnes
and desertion for the statutory two years
Sir Gorell refused to grant the divorce on
the ground that the wife had obtained an
order thu. she should not be compelled to
live with her husband on account If his
intemperance.
Counsel argued in behalf Of the wife
that this did not bar her from alleging tina t
the defendant had deserted her. Justice
Barnes dissented from this view, and in the
course of his summing up strongly criti-
cised the summary jurisdiction Of the
Married Women's act Of 1895. This act +.
which enabled married women TO get a
separation order in a police court for i'll
treatment and neglect, has been used To
an enormous extent. orders being pro-
no,lnoed at the rate If more than 1000 a
wear. Justice Barnes declared that he is
convinced that the result Of the act had been
to cause numbers Of women to rush to the
courts and endesvor TO make a Ease suf-
fcientlv strong to obtain an order. Perma-
nent separation without divorce, declared
the Judge. has a distinct tendency 70 en-
courage immortality.
After asserting that the present state OF
the English law of divorce and separation
was undoubtedly unsatisfactory, Justice
Barnes added that the case then under
&C asideration had brought prominently
forward the question whether any reform
would be effective and adequate which
did not abolish permanent separation as
distinguished from divorce, at the same
time placing the sexes on an equality in
regard to the offence and the relief. In
short. Justice Barnes indicated his opinion
that sufficient cause for permanent separa-
ton should be regarded as sufficient cause
for divorce,
Already churchmen, especially high
churchmen. are protesting against this
view. They declare that they disapprove
Of the divorce laws as they 10Y stand. and
an extension Of their scope as suggested
bv Justice Barnes would be resisted.
