There is only way to cure deafness and that is by constitutional remedies Deafness is caused by an inlamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube When this tube is inhamed you have rumbling sound or i'm perfect hearing and when it is entirely closed, Deaf ness is the result and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal cond- tion, hearing will be destroyed forever nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an infamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

LYDIA E. PINKHAM

No other medicine has been so successful in relieving the suffering of women or received so many gen. uine testimonials as has Lydia E. Pinkham'sV Vegetable Compound.
 In every community you will find women who have been restored to health by Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg etable Compound. Almost every one you meet has either been bene- fted by it, or has friends who have.
 In the Pinkham Laboratory at lynn, Mass, any wOmanany daymay see the files containing over one mil lion one hundred thousand letters from women seeking health, and here are the letters in which they openly state over their own sigma lures that they were cured by Lydia B. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
 Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has saved many women from surgical operations.
 Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is made from roots and herbs, without drugs, and is whole some and harmless.
 The reason why Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound is so successful is because it contains in- gradients which act directly upon the feminine organism, restoring it to healthy normal condition.
 Women who are suffering from those distressing ills peculiar to their sex should not lose sight of these facts or doubt the ability of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound to restore their health.

Queer MiXup About Prohibition Nomi-

There Is a queer mixup about the
prohibition nomination for congress-
man in the Seventh district.
4 man named Harry r. Ross was
nominated by the Prohibitionists. The
Prohioitionists failed to get up a pc
ttlon for Ross, and so his name did
not appear IN the primary ballot, but
there were 81 prohibitionists in the dis
trlct who wrote in the name of Harry
X. Ross under the appropriate heading
on their ballot. Hence Harry r. Ross
was declared the Prohibition nominee
A few days ago the secretary of state
received a letter from Harry R. Ross

ing MS name from the ballot. He said

Today another letter came to the sec

mated by the Prohibitionists, and that

that Harry R. Ross of St. John wasn't

hibitionists who voted for Harry r.

SEEKS PRISON WALLS.
w. HI. Clay, ex-Convict. Asks TO Be
Sent Back to Penitentiary.

William H. Clay. an ex-convict, came
to the police station Saturday night
and gave himself up to the police, say
ing that he had almost killed man
in the brick yards southwest of the
city. Clay drove up to the station with
a horse and buggy he had stolen after
the buggy was practically demolished
1t seems that a bunch of the work
men at the brick yards had been drink
ing and after little argument over a
political question of some sort they all
pitched into each other. During the
battle Clay picked up a brick and hurl-
ing it at one of the workmen he felled
him to the ground. The crowd OF
drunken men started at him with oaths
and threats and running down the road
Clay came upon a horse and buggy
tied to a tree. Hastily untying him
he jumped in and drove on a gallop
to the city and gave himself up at the
police station confessing all. The buggy
was in pieces when he arrived. and the
horse was in a. ssirnilar condition.
Clay is an ex-convict and has been
a tough character. all, his life. He
walked into the police station Satur-
day night and after telling his story
asked that he might be sent back to
the penitentiary. He said he could
not keep straight outside the walls of
the pen" and he decided that he had
better stay inside.
The parole Officers came to the sta
ton this afternoon and took him to
Lansing. Clay was arrested at the
station for being drunk and was fined
five dollars. "a

THEY WANT FOOTBALL.
Professor Who Opposes Sport at Baker
Roughly Handled.

Baldwin, Kan, Oct. 5.-Three hun
bred Baker university students who
were engaging in a pro-football dem
onstration Friday night clashed with
Prof. Julius Smith, a member of the
Baker faculty. AS a result several of
the students received black eyes and
the professors shirt was torn to pieces.
The professor says that he will have
the students arrested for disturbing
the peace.
Several years ago Baker abolished
football. There always has been
demand among the students for the
restoration of the game. The trustees
of the university have voted to rein
state the sport and all that is lacking
now is the consent of the Methodist
conference. Several professors. how
ever. among them Prof. Smith. re-
tired missionary. still oppose the
game.
Friday night 800 students had a
might shirt parade, led by a drum
corps. They went to the houses of
several professors. shouting. I'VE want
football" and the professors made
conciliatory speeches. When the pa
rade reached Prof. Smiths home they
were ordered away. The order was
not obeyed. however, and Prof. Smith
tried physical force. Several of the
students received blows from his fists
and he was "roughed" a trife in re-
turn. although he was not injured.
The village marshal took a hand
then, and was disarmed and rolled in
the dust by the students. A fiashlight
picture of the marshal was taken after
this treatment. The picture shows the
faces of many of the students and
Prof. Smith says he will have everyone
he recognizes in the picture arrested
No warrants have been sworn out yet
After the marshal was dispersed"
the students made a bonfire of dry
goods boxes in front of Prof Smiths
house and kept It burning until several
hours after midnight.

against the International, which is
set for hearing in the supreme court
next Friday, be allowed to lay over

company declared that they had such
great confidence in Judge Johnston's
ability that they felt that he ought
to hear the case.
Mr.. Jackson declined to consent to a
continuance. 1t seems to be the policy
of the International to play for time

KEEPS IT DARK.
Railroad Board Refuses to Make Mis-
souri, Pacific Answer Public.

Hartman has nothing to do with
the Missouri Pacific railway. The de-
mand Of the state board of railway
commissioners contains some very I'M
called for comparisons between the
Hartman and Gould systems. We are
anxious to repair our road as fast as
possible. and to give employment to
more men, but what can we do when
they keep on raising our taxes and
reducing our rates ?"
These remarks were made today by
Bale p. Waggener. attorney for the
Missouri Pacific railway. who came to
Topeka and filed with the state board
of railway commissioners q letter from
General Manager A. w. Sullivan of
that company, as an answer to the re-
quest of the railway commission that
the Missouri Pacific put its tracks in
condition for safe travel in the state.
For some reason this answer is be-
ing suppressed at the office of the state
railway commission. +. c. Sinner, the
secretary. would not make it public
this morning.
The action of the railway commits
sioners in the matter Of track inspec-
ton in Kansas has given rise to good
deal Of criticism. The tendency of the
board OF railway commissioners seems
to be to suppress information about
this and other matters of public inn
portance. The newspapers have to get
much of their information about what
is going on with the board from attor-
neys who file documents with the
board. instead of getting that informa-
tion from the board itself.
Mr.. Waggener said, in speaking Of
Mr.. Sulivan's letter: "Mr. Sullivan
sets forth. in a general way. that when
the board made its inspection of the
track a year ago and notified the COM
pary what repairs were needed, it was
the understanding that the board
should make another inspection. and
see whether or not these demands had
been complied with. The next thing
the company heard from the board
was-tats-ssconsFuurica tion.-- " fTicffs xTJpr
peared in the newspapers. and made
some unpleasant comparisons about
the manner in which MI. Hartman
and Mr.. Gould conduct their railways.
Mr.. Sullivan sets forth in his letter
that the company made extensive re-
pairs on the Central Branch. and that
these repairs have been to some extent
undone by the floods which covered
that track this spring. The company
is making other repairs as rapidly as
possible
IT filed no other answer than this
letter of Mr.. Sullivan. I have no OBJ
lection to the letter being made
public"

RECORD is CLEAR.
Bryan Denies That He Ever Op-
posed Pension Legislation.
Is Scheduled to Make7OSpeeches
in Nebraska.

Fairview, Lincoln, Neb.. Oct. g.
In an interview given out late today by
William J. Bryan, he denies, as has
been alleged, that he ever made
speech or wrote an editorial against
the granting of persons to soldiers. On
the contrary, he declares that all of
his platforms have endorsed pensions
and that he favors a liberal pension
policy. He said:
My attention has been called to a
clipping from, a Republican paper
which purports. to be an extract from
a speech on the subject of pensions,
delivered by me in congress, and the
date of the speech is fixed at Novem-
Der IS, 1892. In the purported speech
1 am accused of criticizing the appro-
priations for pensions and am charged
with using language unfriendly to the
pensioner.
Il desire to say that 1 never used
the language attributed to me either
in congress or anywhere else. 1 never
made a speech against pensions in con-
gress or anywhere else. On the con-
trary, my record shows that l favored
all pensions to the surviving soldiers
and to their dependents.
Congress was not in session on NO
vember 1S 1892 as any one can ascer-
tai by examining the record. The first
session of congress adjourned in the
summer of 1892 and the second session
did not assemble until December OF
that year.
Il think that the language quoted
is the same that has been used at
other times when it was charged that
had used the language in an edi-
torial in a paper of which l was at
one time editor. 1t was claimed the
editorial appeared in 1892. This was
nearly two years before 1 became con-
nected with the paper. 1 do not know
whether the editorial ever appeared
in that paper. but 1 know that i was
not connected with the paper until at
ter the date on which the editorial is
said to have appeared, and 1 know
that 1 never wrote an editorial for
that paper or any other paper. or ever
said in a speech or otherwise any
thing unfriendly to the soldier and
his pension.
LAS this representation was
brought to my attention l take this
means of answering it. All of my plat
forms have endorsed pensions and
favor a liberal pension policy"
The Nebraska state central commit
tee today announced that w. ]. Bryan
would deliver 20 speeches in Nebraska.
He will speak in nearly all the princi-
pal cities October 13. IA and Is.
