Many persons have travelled In for
eign countries and have seen many
andscapes and magnificent scenery.
The yhave mingled among many pc
culiar people. Upon returning home
they have visited their own country
and learned that there are many
things of great interest and scenery
unexcelled abroad. We have In Ohio
"a strange people, teaching a peculiar
cult. They have returned to the trib-
al relationship which Is based upon
reverence for ancient landmarks ana
repudation of modern methods of
transportation. While IL cannot be
|proven that they regard the earth as
having four corners" circumstantlal
|evidence points that way. These peo-
pie began to retire from the worlds
people about fifteen years ago. The
first tribe was organized In Ashtabnla
|county. They are found In various
portions of the state, but far most
numerous in the Connecticut Re-
serve.
They are to certain extent n
warlike people and live within en-
closures. They believe In walls as a
protection from other hostile tribes.
|These walls have caused division
lamong them. Some believe that these
walls should remain the original
height and must be kept in constant
repair, while others would lower the
walls so that they could have a
broader view of the great world,
and there are others who would strike
these walls severe blow ms that
received by the walls of Jericho. The
former class are known as Repairers
while the others are classed together
and called Demolishers.
One tenet of the tribe Is that all
children shall be educated in one
building. This is imperative. Al
Though highly civilized, their child
rem are transported I'm cages. The
school building Is located in the CEN
ter OF the -four square feserva'
Ition. This centralizes advantages
land centralizes privileges, thus max
ing difference in value of rea
estate. which Is not yet held in com
mon, but may through inter-marriag'
Whether these people advocate i'm
breeding or are reconciled to the in
evitable we are unable to state.
The fact that some are FIVE mile
from their school while just outside
are the worlds people. who hav'
schools within one and on-half mile
may be the cause of some wanting tn
walls demolished. Some are com
lpelled to ride Ave miles to atten'
their own school and are within tw'
miles of schools outside OF their res
|ervation. Elections are held quit
lpften between the two factions, bi
the Repairers far exceed the De
rmolishers. as the following report
for 1904 show.

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
inflamed condition of the mucous
ming of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a
sound or imperfect hear
ing and when 1t 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 caused
by Catarrh, which is nothing but an
indamed condition Of the mucous
surfaces. "

FORAKER CANDIDATE NAMED
President Settles Collectorship by
Appointing Gen. McMacken.
Had Larger Republican Endorsement
Than ANY other Candidate-Was
Opposed by Burton.

The President yesterday settled the
fight over the Toledo internal revenue col
by appointing TO the Office Gen.
William V. McNIacken.
In doing so, the advice Of the Senators
from Ohio was not ignored. as was dore
in the case Of seven postmasters who
were appointed in the State about two
weeks ago, for both Senators Foraker and
Dick indorsed Gen. McMacken for sp-
pointment Representative Burton, one Of
the leaders Of the anti-Foraker forces in
Ohio, was bitterly opposed 10 the appoint
uent, but he was quite agreeable TO the
appointment Of the postmasters. as were
the friends of Secretary Taft
The McMacken appointment was an
nounced in the following official state
ment from the White House.
The President announces the ap-
pointment Of Gen. William Y. McMack-
en as collector Of internal revenue at
Toledo. Ohio. This appointment was
recommended by both Senators. and
upon full investigation the President
finds that Gen. McMacken IS more gen
orally supported than any other candi-
date named, because he has the united
support Of all the Republicans Of the
district and also has the recommenda-
tion Of both Messrs. Southard and
Brown, representing opposing factions
in Lucas County. the chief county OF
the district More than all, Cen Nc
Macken has been recommended most
highly TO the President by the National
Guard. not only Of Ohio, but of the
country al large. Gen. Drain. the pTesi-
dent of the National Rife Association
Of America and chairman Of the execu-
tive committee of the Interstate Ma
tioral Guard Association, called to-day

NEGRO WITNESSES REFUTED
Gen. Crozier Shows Rifles Can Be
Cleaned in a Few Minutes.
Troopers Widow Tells How She Hid
Two Policemen While Soldiers
Shot I'D Brownsville.

The testimony given before the Senate
Military Committee by the negro soldiers
who were discharged from the Twenty
fifth United States Infantry for COM
picity in the Brownsville affair that from
twenty to forty-fve minutes were re-
quired 10 clean rifles that had been fired,
so that they should pass inspection, was
refuted yesterday by Gen. William Gro
zier. army Chief Of Ordnance, who testi-
fed that experiments showed guns could
be cleaned in from one TO three minutes
If done within a few hours after being
fired. In some cases the cleaning was
done in dark room.
This testimony was considered impor-
tant as disp0slng Of the claim that, as
all Of the rifles Of the discharged soldiers
passed inspection on the morning after
the shooting. and il was impossible to
properly clean them in the dark room or
within from twenty TO forty-five minutes.
none Of the soldiers could have done the
shooting. cleaned their guns. and been on
hand at the ron-call that took place i'm
mediately after the shooting up Of the
town. Senator Foraker was not entirely
satisfied with the tests, and az his sug-
gestlon Gen Grocer will repeat them be
fore the committee.
Mrs. Emma Leahy. manager OF the
Leahy House at Brownsville. proved A
very interesting witness. It was she who,
according 10 the testimony Of other Wit
nesses. had concealed the two Browns
vile policemen in her bathroom until
after the shooting was over.
"Yes, I am 10 blame" said Mrs. Leahy.
"The policemen who heard the shooting
came under my window and inquired:
Where IS the fire."
'I told them there wasn't any fire, but
the niggers were shooting up the town,
and I brought them in and put them in
the bathroom and told them not 20 come
out Of there until told them. on penalty
Of their lives And they didn't come out.
This statement seemed to afford much
amusement 70 Senator Foraker, who
asked her if she didn't think it would
| have been wiser 10 turn the two Browns
ville's finest loose upon the shooters.
NO. I DON'T spoke up Mrs. Leahy.
What could two poor liule policemen do
against all those soldiers armed as they
were. I'll say this: I wish now that /
/ had brought them out and fought IL out
with them myself
Mrs. Leahy explained that she was the
widow Of a former trooper cf the Eighth
/ Cavalry.

GENIUS WORKS AS WATER BOY.
Has system of Waiting on Men that
saves Time and Labor.

A real genius is employed as water boy
for the men building the tunnel that is 10
connect the two wings of the new De
partment of Agriculture. The excavation
is twelve feet deep and about ten feet
across LabOrers are employed at the bot
tom of the trench and on either side. The
dirt is being raised altogether by hand.
When the boy. the genius, went to work,
he had a hard time getting the water to
the men below and 20 the men across the
trench without going nearly a block out
Of his way. Consequently the invention.
After a few days of running back and
forth and climbing in and out Of the great
long hole an idea came to the boy. Now
he has a long string attached to a can
which acts as a drinking cup. The cord
is fifteen feet long and enables Mr.. Boy
to lower water to the men. and on other
occasions toss il across the excavation.
He has got the system down TO an art
And. Furthermore. the youth has trained
the men to catch the can Of water with
out ever spilling a drop. 1t is no easy
matter to toss a can full Of water a dis
| tance of ten feet, but the ingenious boy
| has accomplished the feat and does it
| dozens Of times every day.
