Spanish Singer Here To-
morrow Night.

An all-star vaudeville company
will open an engagement of two
nights and matinee at Glover's
opera house tomorrow night. The
Senorita Paulita Shermana, the much
talked of Spanish singer, will be the
head liner. Her singing and cos
tuning have won for her much praise.
In reviewing the work of the re-
maiuder of the cast, the Savannah
Press says:
Gardner, Laclede and Gardner, with
their farce comedy playlet, scored a
pronounced success, keeping the audi
ence in roars of laughter throughout
their entire turn. Miss Gardner, as
the wife, did some very clever acting.
as did also Mr.. Laclede as the club
man and husband Mr.. Gardner is an
old timer in the business, having
been connected with and director of
some of the most noted companies in
America.
Another pleasant surprise was that
of the Straub sisters. Savannah audi
ences have seen a number of sister
teams, and usually seeing one is see
ing all, but not so with the StrauD
sisters. They do what might be cali
ed directoire gown act The pres
entation OF the directoire girl was
meritorious to high degree and full
Of merriment wit and humor, while
the dancing of the younger sister was
graceful in the extreme, and the two
together making one of the best sis
ter teams seen In this city.
H. E. Chase, the man who is said
to make them all laugh, was. as good
as his word. His jokes and parodies
were to the point and the audience
showed their appreciation of his work
by its liberal applause.

TUESDAY ELECTION
DAY in 43 STATES
Besides Determining the
Next President.

Washington, D. c., Oct. 2S.-On
next Tuesday the national election
will be held to determine who shall be
the successor of Roosevelt. There
will be elections in forty-three states
and two territories. In twenty-nine
of the states a governor and other
state officers; in the other minor
state officers or justices of the SUI
men only are to be elected. The
states of the Union, with the excep-
ton of Maine, Vermont and Oregon,
will vote for members of the house
of representatives The three states
named have held their state elections
and will vote only for presidential
candidates in the coming election. In
Arkansas and Georgia the state off1c-
ers have been chosen this summer,
leaving only the representatives in
congress and presidential candidates
to be voted for.
The terms of thirty-one United
States senators-twelve Democrats
and nineteen Republicans-expire on
March third, next year In a number
of the states the senatorial choice al
ready has been made by primary A

The present house is composed of
two hundred and twenty-three Re

caused by death, one Republican and
one Democrat Maine has already
elected four Republicans, Vermont
two and Oregon two. The congress
sional situation at large is very mix
ed There are between ninety and
one hundred close congressional dis
tricts scattered through the country,
most of them in states now classed as
doubtful states. These districts are
close in the sense that the Republi-
can or Democratic plurality in the
last election was SO slender that it
would take but slight change In
every voting precinct to bring re-
versal of the political complexion in
this election.

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 it's 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
