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,l
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 infian.
ed you have rurnbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely clos
ed, Deafness is the result, and 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 fos
any case of Deafness Caused by catarrh
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh

If municipal ownership were an
experiment there would be but lit
tile excuse for opposing the efforts
of the best citizens of Brownsville
to make the waterworks and cleo
trio lighting movement a success.
Today there are few cities of any
size in the United States or Eu-
rope that do not own and control
absolutely the water supply. 1t
has been found by experience that
a city can manage its plants jest
as economically as ever a private
company could and secure just as
good aud better results. The city
of Houston had to buy out the
company supplying the city with
water to get a pure supply and
enough pressure for fire purposes,
and it is giving its people better
service and reducing taxation by
turning the profits into the city
treasure. If Our city fathers are
competent to govern this city, they
are competent to see that the wa
terworks and electric lighting plant
are managed economically.

Did He Get Them?

The records in the war depart
ment in Washington are, as rule,
very dry, but occasionally an entry
is found that is humorous.
An officer of engineers, IN charge
of the construction of a road that
was to be built through swamp
being energetic himself and used
TO surrounding mere obstacles,
was surprised when one of his
Young lieutenants whom he had
ordered to take twenty men and
enter the swamp said that he could
not do 1.-THE mud was too deep.
The colonel ordered him to try.
He did so, and returned with his
men covered with mud, and said;
Colonel, the mud is over my
mems heads. can't do it,
The colonel insisted, and told
him to make a requisition for any,
thing that was necessary for the
safe passage. The Lieutenant made
his requisition in writing and on
the spot. It was as follows:
81 want twenty men eighteen
feet long to cross a swamp fifteen
feet deep. "-Harper's Weekly.

CIVIL WAR VETERANS
 WANT WAR RELICS An Important Hearing Be- fore Appropriations Committee. ATWATER HITS MELLEN Senator Thompson Still h. different to Senator
 Donovan.
ATWATER HITS MELLEl

Hartford, June 4-Grand Army men in the state were given field day, yesterday, by the committee on appro- priations, when a hearing took place on the bill authorizing purchase of the Eldredge collection of war relics by the
 state. There was a large attendance of old soldiers at the hearing and the committee visited the collection dur
 ing the afternoon. EX-Senators H. Wales Lines and George E. Bicknell of Meriden and Past Department Com
 mander May, also of that city, were heard in support of the project. Two years ago the idea of this purchase was strongly advocated by the veterans of
 the Civil war in the state If the, col- lection is secured, it will be placed in the capitol ultimately, being given room in the neighborhood of the battle flags and the Buckingham statue.
 The Army and Navy club of Connec- ticut, the most influential veteran or- ganization in the state. has lost nihe- teen members by death since the annual reunion and banquet at New London one year ago. This is the largest mortali- " list that the club has had in any year, exceeding that of 1906 by nine. The roll for this year contains the names of Chief Justice David Torrance, Herbert F. Tinker of Hartford, Dan w. Grosvenor of Westbrook, A. L. Gran dall of New London. Colonel William. c. Ely of Norwich, Robert A. Gray of | Groton, George E. Strickland of Hart ford, Delos D. Brown of East Hamp- ton, Lucien B. Wheelock of Windsor, | Colonel Simeon J. Fox of New Haven, Watson H. Bliss of Hartford, Henry ] T. Phillips of Norwich, Elijah Tracey i of Norwich, Isaac Porter of New Brit an, F. w Curtiss of Derby Lucien M. Royce of Hartford, John B. Mix of l Wallingford, Levi H. Toucey of Wa terbury and F, Williams Faulkner of | San Francisco. Chief Justice Torrance
 was lieutenant-colonel of the Twenty ninth Colored regiment and Colonel Ely was at the head of the Eighteenth l Connecticut. Colonel Fox was a mem-
 Der of the Soldiers Hospital board at
 the time of his death. Robert A. Gray Of Groton had been member of the general assembly. The annual reunion will take place at the Pequot house in
 New London this year, occurring
 June 21 The present membership of
 the club exceeds 300. Since the first of
 January, 1907, there have been 5C
 deaths in the Soldiers home at Noro-
 ton. This is the largest death rate
 in the home that has been met with
 since the institution was established
 by the general assembly. The present
 legislature has dealt liberally with the
 veterans, appropriating freely for in.

stitutions and objects in the interest of the Grand Army.
 Ex-Senator Lines of Meriden will complete twenty-one years as treasur- CT of the Grand Encampment, Knights Templar of the United States, at the triennial conclave of the order at Sar- atoga in July. He was originally elect ed at St. Louis in 1886 and hassreceived a unanimous reelection at each trien- nial since that time. There is not an officer of the grand encampment now living who was elected at SI. Louis with him. The ex-senator's Knight Templar career has been signalized by splendid service. He is the senior past eminent commander of St. Elmo com mandery of Meriden. His reelection as treasurer of the grand encampment at the coming trlennial is confidently ex- l pected.
 Senator Atwater has written a caus- l tic letter to President Mellen of the Consolidated road in which he takes that official to task, intimating that I he has not kept his word of a year ago concerning trolley legislation. The ! senator says he will not accept any half measure for the bill, which he has worked for through the session, incor- porating the Meriden, Middletown and Guilford line He is down on the no- tion that half loaf is better than no bread and emphatically declares that he will not take cut loaf.
 l Senator Thompson of the committee on railroads maintained a rigid indif- ference towards the strictures made by Senator Donovan in the talk, yester- day afternoon, relative to recalling the Damascus railroad bill from the sec
 retary of states office He tried to
 goad the senator from the Fourteenth district into replying, but failed who'll ly in the effort Senator Thompson 8 composure showed no sign of being
 ruf1led by the Norwalk senator's retiec- Itions. Senator Thompson is man lof engaging personality and has the confidence of the senate as 6 body. His predecessor in the rail, lroad committee chairmanship, Comp ltroller Thomas D. Bradstreet, was a hard fighter, setting pace that
 has been difficult to follow this session But Senator Thompson has not been
 lacking In the qualities that count in
 a successful legislator. He has been a
 silent man good many times through the session and has won the victories
 of "The Silent Man"
