Deafness Cannot be Cured
BY local applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear
There is only enc way to cure deaf
ness. and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing. and
when 1t is entirely closed, Deafness
is the result, and unless the inflam-
nation 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 inflamed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall

new JURIST WILL
TRY TOBACCO Case
Claimed Judge Marshall is Dis
qualified to Sit At
Hearing.

Eminence, KY, Jan. 1S.-That it will
be necessary for Judge Marshall to
'vacate the bench during the term of
the Henry Circuit Court, which con-
venes at New Castle tomorrow, when
the case of the Commonwealth of Ken
lucky against the American Tobacco
Company is called, now seems certain
according to the statement made by
Charles Sanford, Commemorative At
torney for this district.
Judge Marshall it is said is disqual-
flied to sit in the case because he was
engaged in similar litigation as attor-
ney before he was appointed TO the
Judgeship by former Gov. Beckham
when Judge Peak resigned to engage
in practice.
The pending case against the tobacco
company is similar to the one tried in
the Henry Circuit Court last fall, at
which time the company was found
guilty of operating a trust In the re-
straint of trade, and was fined $1,000.
Tat was the first case of its kind
against the American Tobacco Com
pany that had been tried in the State,
and the present indictment by means
of petition alleges that the same COM
pany has continued to operate trust
in the same unlawful manner since it
was formerly found guilty and fined.
The former case has been taken to
the Court of Appeals, where it is now
pending, and according to Mr.. San
ford's statement the presnet prosecu-
ton will be conducted along the same
lines.

Queer TaIismans In Malta.

There are still to be found in Maf.a
a number of small stones shaped ard
colored like the eyes, tongues and other
parts of serpents. The superstitious
among the Maltese connect these with
the tradition that st. Paul when ship
wrecked was cast on their island, and
it was there that while lighting bun
die of sticks for fire viper fastened
on the apostles hand. st. Paul calmly
shook the reptile off into the flames,
and no harm followed. The natives
wear these stones as talismans, in
which character they suppose them
serviceable in warding off dangers
from snake bites and poisons. They
are found in st. Paul's cave, imbed-
ded in clay. and are set in rings and
bracelets and when found to be in the
shape of a tongue or liver or heart are
hung around the neck. They are also

Fiji islanders Sugar Cane Dance.

In the first figure the dancers squat
low on the ground, shake their heads,
shut their eyes and murmur slowly
and softly an unintelligible sentence.
Gradually they all stand up together,
growing taller and taller, and as they
"grow" they wave their arms and
tremble all over from ankle to head,
like the tall, tasseled cane waving in
the wind, and still they keep on chant
ing louder and louder. The last fig

QUEER CRABS.
The Ingenious Manner In Which They
Disguise Themselves.

The Ingenious Manner In Which They
Disguise Themselves.
Some species of crabs disguise them
selves in an ingenious manner. They
deliberately bite up seaweeds and
plant them on their backs, very soon
establishing a growth which harmo-
niZes perfectly with the surroundings
and deceives many an enemy. Should
the weeds grow too vigorously the
crab industriously prunes them with
his claws and every now and then
scrapes the whole lot off and starts a
fresh garden on his roof, so to speak.
The sponge crab behaves in a SINH
lar manner, nipping off little bits of
living sponge and sticking them on his
back, where they grow vigorously.
The same end is served as in the other
case. 1t is very amusing to keep crabs
of one or other of these kinds in an
aquarium and deprive them Of the
usual means of concealment.
They get very nervous and agitated
and try to cover themselves with bits
Of paper or anything else that may be
provided. One such captive is said
to have had little greatcoat made
for him, which he put on in hurry
as soon as it was handed to him.

TONY RICHARDSON
IN ROOT CASE
RESIDENT OF EPHRATA FIGURES
PROMINENTLY IN THE CASE
AGAINST SUPREME COURT
JUDGE MILO ROOT.

All OF the old settlers of this Sec
ton know Tony Richardson, the we'll
known stockman Of Ephrata and
Soap Lake. He has spent a great
deal of his time in this city and the
people here are more or less familiar
with his marital troubles. He sought
a divorce some four or five years
ago. The case was heard before
Judge Martin, and Merritt e Merritt,
of Spokane, were his attorneys. w.
]. Canton, of Waterville, was the at
torney for Mrs. Richardson. The fol-
lowing is the story given the Root
investigation committee in Spokane
last week regarding the Richardson
litigation, which finally came before
the supreme court:
In 1906 Richardson laid before
Merritt e Merritt a proposition
which he said was made to him by
e. B. Palmer, former state senator
and attorney of Seattle, to secure a
judgment of $4,000 in a divorce
proceeding for division of the Rich
radson property, in consideration of
the payment to Palmer of $4,000.
When the matter was laid before
the Spokane attorneys they took it
to Olympia and placed it before the
supreme justice of the supreme
caurt, with the request that Root be
not allowed to write the decision in
the Richardson case. The chief JUS
tice informed them that the case had
not been decided, but when the deci-
sion was handed down it was found
to have been written by Root, and
judgment was awarded Mrs. Richard
son in the sum of $4,000.
Richardson expressed to Merritt &
Merritt an inclination to pay Palmer
the $4,000, but after comforting with
his attorneys is said not to have done
so. In any event, he has denied to
Merritt & Merritt that any money was
paid.
The case originally came from
Douglas county, where Richardson
resides. In 1904 the supreme court
sent the case back for a division of
the property by court commission.
In the second trial the court gave the
wife property valued at $4,000 An
appeal was taken from this verdict,
and it was while the appeal was pend
ing that Richardson told Merritt he
had been approached by Palmer with
the proposition that he could secure
reduction of the verdict to $19.-I
900. Palmer told Richardson that
he was law partner of Justice Root,
and, according to Richardson, swore
him to secrecy.
Merritt & Merritt told the Root IN
vestigating committee that they had
made an effort to get an affidavit
from Richardson, but that they could
not do so.
Prosecuting Attorney Grass had q
letter this morning from Secretary
Wright o. tie Root investigating
committee, asking if he had any in
formation to give out that VOL / IA
ne committee. Mrs. Richardson, the
divorced wife of Tony Richardson, is
now living in this city, and Mr..
Grass intends having an interview
with her this afternoon to see if she
can throw any light on the Root
case.

morning as gradually as it decreases
in the evening. The saying should be
