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 constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inha1ned con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is inham-
ed you have rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely clos
ed, 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; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an inhamed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces.

any case of Deafness Caused by catarrh)

Went to the Right Place.

An American whose business
frequently takes him to London
tells OF an amusing conversation
between the driver and conductor of
a public bus in that city.
The bus was fairly crowded, so
the American climbed to the top,
where, shortly after taking his seat,
he observed a person in peculiar
garN, with red turban. There
was leaden sky overhead and a
slow, drilling rain. such weather
as is the rule rather than the ex-
ception in the British metropolis.
As the conductor came to them,
the red-turbaned person, evidently
an Indian Parsee, got down.
"Wot sort of a chap is that?"
asked the driver of the conductor.

fellers that worships the sun"
Worships the sun, chi" re-
peated the driver, with a shiver.

in San Francisco for the japanese.
These were destroyed during that
calamity. The city authorities are
merely rebuilding the schools which
existed before they were destroyed
and not discriminating against the
japanese in that respect.
With the exception of a brief dis
patch from Ambassador Wright at
Toxic, inclosing certain clippings
from japanese newspaper showing
the feeling of resentment which
the Japanese people are exhibiting
over the anti-Japanese agitation in
California, the State Department
has nothing to indicate that such
feeling exists. 1t is feared in
some quarters, however, that
persistence in the agitation will
result in the birth of an anti-Amer-
lean boycott in Japan that will
dwarf entirely in the magnitude of
the injury inflicted upon United
States trade in the Orient which
followed the institution of the
boycott in China.
No complaints have been receiv-
ed from the Japanese Government.

A DANGEROUS MISTAKE.
Brownsville Mothers Should Not Neglect
Kidney Weakness in Children.

Most children have weak kidneys,
The earliest warning is bed-wet-
ing.
Later comes backache, headache,
languor.
IT'S a mistake to neglect these
troubles,
To blame the child for its own
distress.
Seek to cure the kidneys
Save the child from deadly kid
ney ills.
Doan's Kidney Pills cure sick
Parents recommend them.
Mrs. c. H. Blain, of Corpus
Christi, Texas, says: My grand
child, about eight years of age,
was troubled with a kidney ard
bladder ailment about a year ago.
The symptoms became more pro-
nounced and at night had to watch
her and wake her up or she would
wet the bed as she seemed to have
no control over the action of the
kidney secretions. She also COM
planned of pain in the back of her
neck and head. Procuring Doan S
Kidney Pills, was grateful to see
the change for the better within
short time. l have great faith in

BARTLETT's REpoRT.

The report of Medical Examiner Bartlett in the Edwards case, filed in the superior court, is In part as fol- lows:
 Agreeable to instructions received from Deputy Coroner Pond I perform ed an autopsy January 4, 1906, upon the body of Charles A. Edwards, at the un- dertaking rooms of Robert N. Burwell of this city. The following physicians were present: Dr. B. H. Cheney, Dr. w. w. Hawkes., Dr. J. W. Seaver, Dr. H. B. Ferris, and Dr. R, E. Peck The external examination showed the body length to be 66 IA inches and the estimated weight 1S0 or 190 pounds. The anterior surface of the left ear showed a bullet wound and numerous powder grains. The form of this wound was an elongated opening 7-16 of an inch in length, It's longest diameter being near iy vertical. It was in the antihelic it's upper end being one and one-sixteenth inches from the upper end of the ear and one-half inch from the posterior edge of the ear. The powder grains were chiefly above and posterior to this wound, being close together imme- diately around it, and the edges of the wound were blackened as though the weapon from which the bullet was shot was close against the ear. No powder grains were found elsewhere than on the ear.
 On the posterior surface of the ear was a. rounded hole, about one-eighth

in the case in relation to the coroner 5 finding He said: q don't think that the coroner or anyone else can state, as a fact, that this man committed suicide. It is equally improbable, in my judgment, that any man can say that Edwards was murdered. The state has not secured enough evidence to con clusively show that either suicide or murder Is the fact. What Is known Is that the man died somehow, but wheth- CT he killed himself or died by the crin- inal act of another is yet to be proved by evidence. The case is not solved by any means. and probably now will never be cleared up to the satisfaction of everybody interested The question as to the ownership of the pistol that was found in the back yard would, If decided, throw important light in the case,''

New Haven Theater.

George Klimt Is coming to the New Haven theater for three nights and Wednesday matinee, commencing Mon day, January P, in his new play, Big Hearted Jim," written for him by w. l.. Roberts, author of "On the Bridge at Midnight The new drama tells an absorbing story of western life, and furnishes Mr. Klimt, who plays Jim Saxon, the sheriff of Medicine Lodge with nicely fitted, strong and admir- able role. The sheriff loves a pretty school teacher who has been the vic- tim of a false marriage. The deceiver appears at the Montana town, Medicine Lodge, looking for an heiress, Black foot Indian girl, and knowing the school teachers secret, tries to use it to compel her to help him get the girl A number of strong western characters are introduced and much comedy in both male and female roles The minor parts include miners, frontiersmen, In- dians and school children. Two acts take place In a stockade yard with an uprising of redskins threatened. Be- sides the sheriff of Medicine Lodge, the pioneer, the heathen, the stage driver over the divide, the Montana Diamond and the Canuck are all in good hands, for Messrs Klimt and Gazzolo engag- ed an excellent company to support the star.

of an inch in diameter and there was one corresponding to this as a slightly higher level in the scalp at the back of the ear. A probe inserted in the hole in the anterior surface of the ear along the course of the bullet wound passed obliquely through the ear into the hole in the scalp, the direction being upward, slightly backward and inward towards the skull.
 There was some dried blood on the interior surface of the ear, as well as back of it. There was dried blood near the roots of the side whiskers of this left side, the outer ends of the whiskers beng somewhat diffusely stained reddish, There were many minute specks of dried blood on the front of the neck, giving the appear ance that would result if more blood had been present and had been rubbed off. Similar minute specks of dried blood were found on the anterior up- per part of the chest on both sides or the median line, and there was dis tinct streak of dried blood extending from an inch below the supersternal notch down for three inches. This was five-eighths of an inch to the right of the median line and varied in width from one-quarter to three-eighths of an inch. Extending downward and to the right from this streak, was an area that was slightly but distinctly red, ap- bearing as though blood had been wiped from above downward and to the right. On the back of the index and middle fingers of the right hand was some dried blood. This was on the proximal phalanx of each finger. There was blood stain on the upper, inner part of the left foot. The index finger of the left hand had been amputated at the distal end o the first phalanx.

THE EDWARDS CASE.
THE STATE NOT EXPECTED TO
 TAKE ACTION.

The Suicide Theory Finds Many Com
 verts, but MuItitudes stiII Lean to
 the Murder TheOry-The Medical Ex-
 aminer's Report.
 The discussion of the Edwards death will not down and while many have been converted to the coroners theory, probably a large majority of people dis sent from it. The coroner's report now rests in the cae of John c. Gallagher, clerk of the superior court, and action rests with States Attorney Williams. It is considered very improbable that any further action will be taken unless new developments of importance occur. States Attorney Williams said yester- day that he had not yet read the report of Coroner Mix owing to pressure of other duties. MT. Williams statedN a day or two ago that he concurred with the coroner's report.
 The petition for the administration of the property of the late Abigail Hitler, mother of Charles and Maxcy Hitler, is set down for a hearing this morning at 10 o'clock in the probate court and Lawyer Earliss P. Arvine, counsel for Maxcy Hitler, said yesterday that he thought there would be no trouble about the appointment of a person sat isfactory to all the heirs
 As the petition for an administrator R. stn. ,ie r{e ter, Mrs. Edwards. all that is needed for harmony is the agreement of Maxcy Hitler. The petition of Mrs. Edwards and Judge Hitler will be presented by George D. Watrous, counsel for the es- tate, and MT. Arvine will probably ap- pear for Maxcy Hitler.
 Charles Hitler was again at the Hill- CT homestead on College street yester- day morning. He was asked to talk about the report. He said:
 T want two or three days to think this thing over. I won't even say yet whether l think 1t was suicide or mur- der. want this thing to cool down first. It has all been a terrible strain on me and need rest"
 It became known yesterday that Charles Hitler has asked to see the complete testimony in the case. His friends say that he does not accept the theory of suicide and it is known that Mrs Edwards does not.
 Coroner Mix said yesterday that he was enjoying the first day of rest he has had In two weeks. As to the Ed wards case he considered if closed as far as he was concerned. The case had now gone out of his hands
 The reports have been filed in detail by Medical Examiner Bartlett on the autopsy and of the chemical analysis of spots supposed to have been blood on several articles taken from the Hill- CT house, including the garments worn by Mir Edwards and also the bed cloth ing. The report of the chemical analy- sis threw little light on the case ex- cept that 1t showed that the stomach brought forth a distinct opium like odor. There was no indication of irrit- ant poison.
 The medical examiner did not at- tempt to fix the time that the poison was taken. On another point the med acal examiner in his report says: "The location and direction of the bullet wound were such that it might have been self-infiicted, though 1t was in a very unusual place for this"
