and did good, genuine artistic work. Her
singing of the aria from Louise" oy
Charpentier showed good Interpretation.
Having heard Mary Garden in this opera
in Paris, 1 was anxious to hear Mrs. Bal
four render it. Her voice is far superior
to the artist named and her diction was
excellent Mr.. Balfour was in good voice
and he has earned for himself reputa-
ton, which, judging from his work on
Wednesday night, he fully deserves.
Their duets received much praise. The
last from the finale of La Boheme" was
beautifully given. 1 did not hear the
songs of julius Albert jain. hear they
are very interesting and musicianly. They
were given in group, the first being "Ii
l were Only a Swallow" (b) Hast Thov
a Heart? (c) The First Song" Id '"The
Dying Never Weep"
Franz Leischner played a number Of
piano compositions familiar to all con
cert goers. Ine only one which has not as
vet been given often in this city was the

is a better pianist than accompanist ant
these artists deserve much praise fol
their splendid program.

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 infamed
condition of the mucou lining Of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube IS
infamed you have a rumbling sound OF
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be TAX
en- out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out Of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is no
thing but an inf1amed condition Of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any Ease Of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

plant Saturday night, no lights were
available for the residence district of

there being no light at night, and
asked members of the congregation to
bring lamps, and the church was light
ed as well az churches were when Rev.
Trout was somewhat younger. The ca

direct and alternating current wires,
and there was light at that place for
the evening worship. All the churches
were able to hold services by using the
lights at hand and getting lamps.

Engineer Gus Johnson of the cleo

of the engine a moment before the
cylinder head blew out, but had
stepped away. and avoided accident Of
any sort. None of the other employees
