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
iniamed condition Of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infiamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed,
deafness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever: nine cases out Of ten are caus-
ed by catarrh, which is nothing but
an infamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars
for any case of deafness Caused by
eatarrh) that cannot be cured by
Halls Catarrh Cure, send for circu-
ars free.

"The Seminary Girl. ("

Among the seasons most preten-
tious offerings for public favor great
claims are made for Melville B. Ray
.nond's production of ''The Semi
nary Girl" and all the reports con-
corning it bear out the claims of
genuine novelty, brilliancy of Gre
alton and elaborate beauty. The
story deals in operate form with the
adventures of the college girl and
her lover, stern Daddy and others
who interfere or help along, this,
the oldest story in the world. An
aimless and harmless lunatic helps
along the fun just when most neede
to livenIaffairs. Daily Dan is new
character to the stage and is in the
hands of capable comedian. This
musical organization will be at Hol-

EXAMINATION DAY SET.
Eighth Grade Announcement Is, Made
bv State Sunerintendent

Eighth Grade Announcement Is. Made
by State Superintendent.
State Superintendent Ustrud an
nounces May and as the dates for
the eighth grade examinations for the
different counties of the state.
The papers for the spring examina-
tions are all in but those of one or
two counties, showing that the total
number will be about $50. This is
about the same number as for the
spring examinations last year, but not
as many as for the fall examinations.
Minnehaha county sends in the larg-
est number of papers for examination
by the board with thirty-flve, and
Butte county sends only one set.
These papers cover only the applica-
lions from second grades up, the third
grade applications being by far the
largest number.
Under the new law after the first Of
July all applications for certificates of
any grade whatever must come to the
Office of the state superintendent for
markings. This will mean far larg-
er amount of work for that depart
ment, but it will be strung out to a
greater extent by examinations about
once in two months instead of two
each year as at present.

Boy Struck by Car Door Which Blew
From Fastenings in High Wind.
A damage suit which promises to
be stoutly contested when it comes
to trial has been instituted in the
state Circuit court for Brown county
by Mrs. Fitzpatrick of Groton. The
defendant in the action is the Chicago
& Northwestern Railroad company.
In the suit Mrs. Fitzpatrick represents
her son, Vigne, who, about year ago,
was struck by swinging car door,
which blew from freight car on the
tracks Of the Northwestern company
during high wind.
Mrs. Fitzpatrick seeks to recover
damages in the sum of $4,000 for the
injuries sustained by her son at that
time. The commencement of the &C
ton results from the failure of the
parties in interest to effect a COM
promise satisfactory to the relatives
of the boy and the railroad company.
1t Is probable tire case will be tried
during the regular May term of state
circuit court in Brown county.

The building is thoroughly fire proof
and furnished with exits sufficient to
allow crowded house to retire as fast
as the streets will accommodate the
people. The whole Fifth street front.
200 feet wide, is an exit.
THE acoustic properties of the Audi.
torium are absolutely perfect. Not a
seat in the building but that Is a good
one. Every seat is raised SO that the
vision is unobstructed and not pillar
or post mars the sight.

be sold in advance.
