Deafness Cannot be Cured

by iacai applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portions of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness. and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness Is caused by an infamed con- dition of the mucous lining of the Eus- tachian tube. When this tube is in- flamed you have q rum mbling sound or inperfect hearing, and when it is en- tirely gone deafness is the result, and unless the information can be taken out and the tube restored to it's normal condition the hearing will be destroyed forever. Nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inhamed condition of the mu- cous surfaces.i
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of deafness tcaused by Ca tarrh that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars free.

 The man was we'll liked at the camp, and his untimely death caused univer- sal sorrow. \ sad feature of the case is that the wife and child of the drown ed man are now on their way across the ocean to Join their husband and father, he having sent money for that purpose some weeks ago.
 The body was brought to Yuma in q skiff Sunday night by the brother of the drowned .man and two friends. The funeral was held from the Sanguinetti undertaking rooms at 70 block Monday morning.

Council Wheels About.

The strongest petition ever
 presented to the city council oi
 Yuma was that presented by W.
 H. Lyon last night, and which induced that honorable body to take back track on the proposi tion of excluding women from saloons. The council was evi- dently taken aback by the impor- tance of the petition, which was signed by every business man in Yuma, with only two exceptions, and later, upon the recommends tion of the license committee. passed another ordinance, which provides that each saloon may employ two female singers or musicians-each to pay a license to the city of SlO per month. The ordinance provides that the women so employed must be of good character and repute, and bars prostitutes absolutely from the profession" Any woman desiring q position of this kind must apply in person to the city council and make good" in the required qualifications. This is all right theoretically, but as there are no "lady experts" on the council 1t is not exactly clear how the eligibility of an appIi- cant is to be determined. The suggestion has been made that the council should now create the office of lady inspector. This would create another unu- sual situation that would be diffl- cult to handle. We believe. how ever, that the council is perfectly capable of taking care of this matter and therefore have no to offer.
 The council ordered a public watering trough placed at the foot of Main street. This must not be construed as a stab at the north end saloons.

 The local clubhouse is proving avery popular place for railroad men. The baths and the library are the most pop ular features, although the pool and billiard tables do not remain idle any great length of time.
 The number of volumes in the circu- lating library is greater than that at the Carnegie library here. The books remain in the clubhouse library for three months at time-Tucson Citi-

Girls StepfatEer Held.
 Percy Rose Discharged.

The rape case in the justices court last Saturday, involving Percy Rose and Sarah Louise Sherwood. took a queer and sensational turn-tbe young
 man being discharged and the girls stepfather, F. P. Sherwood, being held to grand jury. she having admitted. to illicit relations with the latter when she was only nine years old.
 Percy Rose was placed on trial be- fore Justice Redondo last Saturday on the charge of having raped Sarah Louise Sherwood. 8 young girl less than 16 years old. The girl testified that the intimacy between herself and Rose began about a year ago and that her baby was born February ?, 1906, at the Crittenton Home in Phoenix. i She said he had cOmpe He'd her to yield to him while they were returning from religious services at the Crane school house. The young man acknowledged to escorting the girl to and from church but denied the alleged intimacy.
 Attorney w. r. Timmons in cross examining the girl caused d sensation by asking her if she had not told some one that her stcpfather had been inti- mate with her. The reply was ''Yes."
 The more startling admission was brought out by District Attorney Brown that the intimacy between the girl and her stepfather began when she was only 9 years old and continued up to about three years ago.
 On the strength of the girls teSti- mony, the district attorney asked that a warrant be issued for Sherw ood, which was done. and the stepdaughter signed it. Sherwood was evdidently very much surprised when arrested. but did not show much agitation. He denied the charge.
 The action of the district attorney in moving for the arrest of Sherwood and subsequently, for the discharge of Rose seems q little peculiar, as the main source of evidence against both was the same-the girl herself. If her character was so thoroughly bad. it is not clear why because of that fact. or for other reasons disclosed, her testimony should be believed in the one case aud repudiated in the other. At any rate it is d nasty case.
 Justice I;edoudo fixed Sherwood's bond at 5000, which he was unable to give and was remanded to jai
 All the parties to the suit live in Yuma valley.
 Since the above was put in type Sherwood was released from custody. upon the condition that he and the girl and her baby should leave the country, never to return. The whole outfit left for parts unknown on the 10:3O east bound train last night.

Block System for Tucson Division

Appropriation has been made and
 general orders issued for the installa-
 tion of two hundred miles of the auto matic electric block system on the Tue son division of the Southern Pacific.
 It will be put in at once between Tue son and Lordsburg and Yuma and Vel ton. This rart of the division being
 the most crooked and liable to acci- dents is being equipped first and next year funds will probably be allowed for the completion of the system over the entire division. This is another of the many improvements which Superintcn- dent McGOvern has urged for the di- vision and finally secured. It also serves to demonstrate the folly of those who persist in predicting that the main line of the Southern Pacific is to be thrown around through Phoenix. If the present Tucson division were ever to be used as a mere branch line, this great expense would be entirely un- necessary and would not be made. It's completion will make travel over this division one hundred per cent safer, as under this control with the comparatively few trains run over the road, will be well nigh impossible. The appreciation of the company of this territory and its care for the patrons are again substantially illustrated. Many roads in the East, which run twice as many trains, are not protected by the block signal system.

Passing of tOld Chap"

George Chapman, familiarly known to all old timers as "Old Chap" died in the county hospi- tai last week from cancer. "Old Chap" was one of the characters of the early days. At one time he was mail and express agent, and either in this territory or in New Mexico he received the body of a Chinaman for trans portation to San Francisco, whence it was to be sent back to the FIowery Kingdom. It had not been em balmed, and ice was an unknown article in the south west outside of California. To make matters worse there were delays, so that when the tram reached Yuma early one morning it was the third day out with the corpse. The situation had be- come desperate. Either the body would have to leave the car or Chapman would have to leave 1t. As the train was crossing the Colorado river the Chinaman left it. Old Chap dropped him into the river.
 On the arrival of the train at Los Angeles Chapman was checked up and was found to be "one corpse short" In eXplana- tion he said that was funny, for he had had it, he knew. He re- membered with distinctness of having noticed it at various times during the journey. He couldn't be mistaken about it. It's disap- pearance, therefore, was every funny" It was not, the agent said, from the express company's point of view, but on the contra ry was very serious. It. was then that Chapman resigned.
