"The Fighting Parson."

DIR. William S. Rainsford, who on ac-
count of continued ill-health has re-

New York City, earned his title Of the
fighting parson" Immediately after
taking charge Of that pastorate. He
opened a mission in saloon over on
the east side and was conducting a
meeting when an Intoxicated man be-
gan to raise a disturbance. DIR. Rains
ford ordered him to leave, whereupon
the fellow swore violently. The preach
err walked over and after some vain
parley with the hurley disturber sud-
denly knocked the fellow down. The
man scrombled on his feet and hur-
ried out. Later he was one of DIR.
Rainsford's most ardent admirers.
DIR. Rainsford is an Irislnlan, having
been born in Dublin on October 80,
1850, and the traits of an eirnts Irish
man often crept into his sermons and
speeches. They did so somewhat sur
prisingly about three years ago, when
on one occasion, getting pretty well
worked up he gave utterance to an ex-
pressive damn" Regretting the ut
terance when he had cooled off, he
wrote letter of apology to Bishop
Potter. The4latter in speaking OF the
incident, described the strenuous par

Deafness Cannot be Cured

There is only one way to cure deaf

it is entirely closed, Deafness is the
re suit, and unless the Inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to

disposition on the part of the belliger-

was whether Guatemala had injured
Salvador by harboring insurgents IN
her territory or whether Salvador by
doing the same thing had injured
Guatemala. But the recent battle. with
the death Of General Regalado, the
former president of Salvador and the
leader Of the Salvadorean troops
changed the situation.
