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 hiatt is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
the tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect 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 its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by Catarrh, which is nothing but an
inflamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by

lars free.

Chief of Gotham School Build
Ings Tells How They Should
Be Constructed.
FUNERALS ARE BEING HELD.
BY MONDAY THE LAST OF THE
LITTLE VICTIMS WILL BE LAID
TO REST-THE INVESTIGATION
CONTINUES.

Cleveland, O., March 7.-Baming
the Collinwood school horror, with its
destruction of 167 lives o faulty con-
struction. c. b. J. Snyder, superinten-
dent Of the school buildings of New
York City, declared the destroyed
building was typical of thousands OF
buildings throughout the country.
But if the laws of Ohio had been
observed there would have been no
such disaster The building should
have been equipped with more fire es-
the upper floors. The COllinwood
school was of type which is popular
but entirely wrong in construction,
he said.
Mr. Snyder said: The Col!inwood
school was one Of a type of which
there are thousands in America, all
faulty in construction. 1t is a popu-
lar method OF construction, but entire
ly wrong. No schools should be con-
Structed that are not absolutely fire
proof.
1T is not necessary to erect separ-
ate buildings in which TO house the
heating apparatus.
The Precautions Needed.
"There should be, however. COM
plete isolation of the basement from
the first floor except through a fire
proof passage or stairway. The stair
ways leading from the first floor
enclosures of doors and all doors
should be of the same construction.
There should be no outside fire es-
capes, but plenty of inside stairways
of fireprOof construction. There
should be doors between class rooms
and only one doorway into corridors
In the Collnwood building, in addition
to the doors into the corridors. there
We're doors through the cloakroOms.
This is entirely wrong. 1t gives
the children a chance to get away
from the teacher and rush into dang
er through these numerous doors. If
there was but one door leading into
the corridor, the teacher could have
control Of the children. If egress was
cut off from one point the children
could be led into some other room and
down another stairway.
Doors. instead OF being in the cen
ter of the Railways, should be as near
ly opposite stairways as possible.
NO school stairway should be more
than four feet wide. Down each side
there should be a handrail. This would
enable two children to go down
abreast. Those behind would not be
able to push between those in 'front.'

There was a large attendance at the
public NEE ting held at the Commercial
club rooms last evening by the Anti
Tuberculosis society The effort to
bring the dairymen and the health
authorities closer together on the
question of milk inspection was the
object of the meeting but this effort
did not prove successful. In fact the
breach between the supporter3 Of the
proposed milk inspection ordinance
and the dairymen appears to have
widened as the result of this meet
ing.
DR.. Charles Bond, city health Off
Ger. read the Ft. Wayne milk inspec-
tion ordinance which is Il most
stringent instrument, and urged that
a similar ordinance be adopted by the
Richmond city council. DR.. Charles
Marvel attacked this ordinance, stat
ing that it was unnecessary for the
city TO enact one similar to it, point
ing out that the milk inspection reg
ulations of the state board of health
were sufficient to guarantee pure milk
If the local authorities would comply
With these regulations. 1t appears
that the stand taken by DIR. Marvel in
this respect is supported by nearly
all of the local physicians. SO at the
present time about the only champion
the proposed milk inspection ordin-
ance has is DR. Charles Bond.
Several dairymCn, among them
Charles Commons and Mr.. Daily.

At the last meeting the question
was asked: What is the remedy for

There are many causes for unclean

Remedy for Evils.
The remedy for these evils is con

James Townsend Talks and

BY SpurIock and Well Known
Pretty Affinity.
CHARGES NOW HANG OVER
THE HEADS OF THE TWO.
On Release from Jail, cpurIoCk
Will Again Be Arrested and
Police Want Woman With
Whom He Lived.

Arthur Spurlock, who has been serv-
ing a three months Jail sentence for
beating Mrs James Townsend, who at
the time of the young mans arrest
was thought to be his wife. will be re-
leased from custody, the first of next
weak. Spurlock will then immediate
ly be arrested again on charge of
adultery. If Mrs. Townsend can be To-
Gated by the police, she will also be
arrested on similar charge.
Case Peculiar.
The Spurlocll case is one of the most
peculiar ones that the police have eV-
er been called upon TO untangle. About
three years ago. Mrs. Townsend went
on the road with a carnival company.
At Kansas City she met Spurlock Last
October she and Spurlock returned to
Richmond and lived here as man and
wife, it is asserted. The woman told
her relatives in this city that while she
was III Kansas City she had secured a
divorce from Townsend and that she
had then married Spurlock.
Death" of Spurlock.
Last November Spurlock became
crazy drunk. it seems. and while in this
condition telephoned his wife, telling
her that he had been killed by a rail
road train. She did not recognize his
voice. and Immediately started to the
place where Spurlock had informed
her he had met his death" While
she was walking to the scene of the
accident, SpurlOck met her and i'm
mediately made an attack upon her
Mrs. Townsend finally succeeded in
escaping from Spurlock and ran TO
the home of Police Sergeant McManus.
Spurlock pursued her and when she
stepped on the front porch of the Nc
Manus home. he again attacked her.
McManus came to the rescue of the
woman and a lively scene ensued
Spurlock was first sent to Jail 10 serve
eleven days on charge of iutoxica-
tion. On his release he was again ar
rested on a charge of wife" beating.
The court, for this offense, assessed a

Husband Discloses All.
A short time ago Townsend came 10
Prosecutor Jessup and told him that
the woman who had been living with
opurlock was his wife. He denied
tnat she ever secured a divorce from
him. On this information the pros
ecutor swore out warrants for the ar.
rest of Mrs. Townsend and Spurlock.
Il is stated that Townsend did not
know his wife was in the city until
recently. Friends of Mrs. Townsend
state that Townsend did know that his
wife was living in Richmond. posing
as the wife of Spurlock. 1t is stated
that the woman was in Richmond yes
terday, but today her whereabouts
could not be located.
