UNCLE JOE
SWEARS A
SWEAR
BY Associated rress.

BY Associated Tress.
ST. JOSEPH. Mo-, Sept. 26-speaker
Joseph G. Cannon spoke to an audi
ence here this afternoon which over
flowed the theater in which he appeared.
In an interview given out here Mr..
Cannon said the Democrats who de-
clare Roosevelt to be the best Democrat
who sat in the White House are like
the devil when he offered Christ all
the kingdoms of the earth If the savior
would do his bidding.
THE devil claimed all the earth, but
he did not own a damn foJt of it,"
said Cannon.
How about the Cuban question:
II have not paid much attention to
that question" said Mr.. Cannon. The
Platt amendment pledges us to main
tain the law and order in Cuba. We
will do that.
"If it is necessary to annex Cuba to
do it we will annex" interpellated Con-
gressman Watson.
That's Watson speaking now," said
Mr.. Cannon, smiling. "I don't say that.
I merely say that this government is
pledged to maintain law and order
there and we will take such steps as
are necessary to do that. don't know
what steps may be necessary and l
don't wish to discuss them. Fools rush
in where angels fear to tread when the
angels don't happen to be we'll posted
on a question. Mr.. Taft is down there
in Cuba and / have confidence in our
president to meet the situation"

narrowly escaped being missing today.

street, arrested Howard Fallon, u
chauffeur. last evening at First and
Main streets for speeding his automo-

After his name was duly entered on
the records of the department Banks
took Fallon to the machine which was
standing outside the station and or
dered him to run it to one side until a
man could be sent for from the An
g. lus Motor Car company, to which
the car belonged.
Fallon and the officer entered the
machine and in a flash the prisoner
opened the throttle and the car was
speeding toward Main street with
Banks holding to the seat. AS soon as
the officer recovered his equilibrium he
seized the steering wheel and threat
ened to run the car into the sidewalk if
Fallon did not stop it. Fallon there
upon did so, and the two entered the
station a few moments later.
Fallon was given no further oppor-
tunity for making awav with police

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
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infiamed condition of the mucuos lin
ing of the Estrachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing. and
when it is entirely closed. Deafness is
the result, and unless the inflamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucuos sur
faces.
