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 inAamed condition of the mucous lin.
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube
is inhamed you have rumbling sound or i'm.
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely clos
ed, Deafness is the result, and unless the in
hammation 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 inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

No Settlement FOR Countess de
CastelIane Now.
Likely That His Debts Must BE
Discharged.
N MAKE TROUBLE.
Count Might Place Restrictions
on the Children.
October IA Is Fixed as Time for
Divorce Hearing.

Paris, Sept. 21.-While no move has
yet been made by the counts lawyers,
the attorneys for the Countess de
Castellane evidently anticipate an at
tempt on his part to force a delay in
the trial of the divorce case. which has
been fixed for October IT, unless the
creditors attachment case is previous
" settled. The count is not unwilling
to take every advantage of the desire
of the countess and the Gould family
to make the sacrifice to escape fur
ther notoriety and scandal, but it is
still doubtful whether the price is not
too high It turns out that the bills
piled up by the counts creditors are
very numerous. While the exact total
is not known the amount is authorita-
lively described as fabulous
In spite of the prenuptial settlement
the French law regards the marriage
partnership as making husband and
wife equally responsible for the house
hold expenses and debts The attach
ment proceedings, however, do not be-
entirely for money borrowed from
usurers at rufnous rates and conse-
quently they could be legally resisted.
The count has another lever in the
disposition of the children, who, under
the law, are French citizens and sub
Ject to military duty. He could enter
plea before the French court that if
the children were given into the Gus
tody of the mother they might be
taken beyond the jurisdiction of
France. Such action would doubtless
result in the imposition by the court
of restrictions embarrassin the count
ess in the future.
If the creditors attachment is set
tied out of court, the count is not ex-
pected to make a defense. and It is be-
Ieved that the divorce Will be granted
October II Otherwise it is anticipated
that the count will trump up a cause
for postponement.

Presidents Eight Hour Law Order

directing the rigid enforcement of the
eight hour law declared Samuel Com
pers, president of the American
Federation of Labor yesterday. I'VE
are much gratified that the president
has issued the order, although we con-
ceive it to be q little late. The original
request for the enforcement of the eight
hour law on government work was made
by me nearly three years ago. During
the intervening time I have repeatedly
called the presidents attention to the
continued violation of the law and have
cited specific instances backed up by
affidavits
"On March D. 1906, the president re-
quested Frank Morrison, Of the Amer1
can Federation of Labor, to bring to
his attention specific instances Of ths
violation of the law. which he would re-
fer to Mr. Neill for investigation. This
was done on April 21, with the result
that the order requiring the enforcement
of The law was issued yesterday.

pursue its work of organization in the
campaign which has been mapped out
in the hope that a larger degree of JUS

IS STOLLARD CRAZY.
NO shortage in Sedan Cashiers Ac-
counts After All.

Sedan, Kan, Sept. PA surprise
awaited James T. Bradley. national
bank examiner. when he investigated
the contents of the vault of the Peo-
pies National bank of this city Thurs
day afternoon. Apparently the short
age. if any, will be very small. Silver,
gold and currency amounting to $7,70O
was discovered in addition to a large
number of notes and securities, all of
which upon examination appear to be
genuine A message received from the
Union National bank of Kansas City,
one of the correspondents of the Sedan
bank, states that there is a balance ex-
listing there of $4,000 credited to the
Peoples National. The New York cor
respondent has not yet been heard from.
The size of the deposit which Stollard
was supposed to carry at the bank has
however dwindled down on investiga-
tion from s., 900 to 81, 200, and $700 of this
amount was drawn out by the missing
cashier upon his departure. The horse
which he rode out of town on was found
riderless near Bartlesville, L T., and
one of his acquaintances reports that he
saw him board a Missouri, Kansas &
Texas train for Oklahoma City.
It is believed now that Stollard mas
suddenly gone insane and that In his
demented condition he believed that he
had plundered the bank This is the
theory advanced by some of the deposi-
tors of the bank who believe that no
shortage exists.
