ROOSEVELT INTENDS
To Take Trip Down the Mississippi
Next Fall

Washington, May 3d. AL
though President Roosevelt's
trip down the Mississippi river
next fall-a trip which he de-
clared he will take provided moth
ing unforeseen happens-will be
of most direct benefit to the great
middle western country, it is al
most of equal Importance to the
people of the entire country. Mr..
Roosevelt, in his letter of accept
ance of the invitation of the gov
errors of sixteen states makes
this very plain. In all his pub
lie utterances on the question of
waterway improvements, Presi-
dent Roosevelt repeatedly has
dWelt on the fact that communi-
ties situated some distance from
navigable streams or improved
ports would benefit quite
as much as those communities ly-
ing on the banks of great rivers
or on the shores of the Great
Lakes. In his letter he says:
Let me say a special word
of appreciation of the invi-
tations which came from the
governors of Maine, Florida
and Oregon, all of whom, al
though they are governors
of states which are not on
the Mississippi, showed
their realization of the enor-
nous Importance Of improv-
ing this great national high
way because of the benefit
that easy and cheap trans
portation thereon will mean
to all the union, and because
they believe that improve
ment of the Mississippi and
its tributaries will tend to
bring about the improve
ment of other navigable
waterways of the country as
a factor in commercial and
industrial development and

ART EXHIBITION
READY TOMORROW

By tomorrow morning the art ex-
hibition in the Education Office will be
ready for the inspection of the public.
1t consists. as previously reported, OF
the pictures given as prizes in the
Arbor Day competition of the public
schools
There are scores of pictures and their
variety is striking. They range from
oil paintings by Hitchcock to print
copies of the old masters. One series
of oblong panels gives a representa-
ton of the animals coming out Of
Noah's ark, executed in broad orien-
tai style and evidently initiating the
familiar toy models of juvenile holt
day toys. Yet expert opinion is that
the work is that of an artist. Here
and there the similitude of crude wood
carving and joining is diversified with
master touch of pet or plunge and
deft copying of the natural pose of
beast or bird A pity it is that the
panels are not to be kept together in
one composition as intended by the
composer, instead of one going to Ka-
uai, another to Hawaii and the rest
distributed between.
D. Howard Hitchcock and Jas. A..
Wilder supervised the hanging of the
pictures. Territorial Forester Hosmer
is delighted with the exhibit, as also
is superintendent Babbitt of the Edu-
cation department. Invitations will be
sent to the Senators and the Represen-
tatives to visit both this art exhibit
and the general educational exhibit in
the rooms of the Hawaii Promotion
Committee.

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 infiaE1ed con.
dition of the mucous lining Of the Ems
tachian Tube. When this tube'is infam'
ed you have a rumbling soU1d Or imper-
feet hearing, and when it isentirely clos
ed, Deafness is the result, sad 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 infamed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)

TANK CAR
CRUDE OIL
Presented to Brownsville by
Texas Company.
The Big Oil Corporation Heard of the
Difficulty Brownsville Had Exper.
fenced in Getting Crude Oil to
War on Mosquitoes.

When the city of Brownsville
first began the war TO exterminate
the mosquitoes from the town in
the early spring. they found con-
siderable difficulty in securing
crude oil. Soon after DR.. Brumby s
first visit to the city. they found it
was impossible to secure any crude
oil in less than car load lots. The
officials did not feel that the city
could afford to pay such a large
sum for that amount of oil as it
was no: believed that the city
would ever need a car load, there
fore long time was wasted in an
effort to get crude oil in smaller
quantities, but without success.
When it was found that the mos
quitoes were becoming numei Gus.
the city commenced to purchase
refined oil, and have been using
that expensive substitute for the
crude product ever since dengue
made its appearance.
Recently Aldermen Russell and
Crixell through the local agent of
the Texas Company, Louis Kowa1-
ski, made known TO the principal
officers of the great Texas Com
pany, which by the way is the
Company fighting the Water-Pierce
Company, the great difficulty the
city officials had to encounter in
fighting the mosquitoes with REIN
ed oil that could only be used spar
ingly on account of its cost.
With liberality that will COM
mend itself to our citizens and the
citizens of other communities The
Texas Company wired to Louis
Kowalski this morning as follows:
Beaumont. Texas, Aug. IS, 1907.
Louis KowaIski, Agent, Texas
Company, Letter eighth. Will

crude oil for disinfecting purposes

quested Manager Miller to remit
