diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness. and that is by consttu-

famed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is infiamed
you have rumbling sound or imperfect hear

the result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever,

BOYCOTT THE CARS.
Labor Federation Delegates Ride Only
in Carriages.

Denver, Col, Nov 1.-THE COM
mittee on adjustment reported that a
compromise had been reached in the
controversy between the Freight Han
dlers union and the Brotherhood of
Railway Clerks. This permitted ac-
ton on the application of the rail-
way clerks for charter in the fedora
ton, and the executive council was in
structed to issue a charter at once.
The committee recommended that eff
forts be made to bring all the railroad
brotherhoods under the banner of the
American Federation of Labor. A
communication from the Asiatic ex-
clusion league of California was read.
ing its resolution on this subject and
asked the federation to keep up the
fight until Asiatic exclusion becomes
law of the nation.
An announcement was made that
the sight seeing this afternoon would
be from carriages instead of from
street cars. The employees of the street
car system are not organized and Sc
rious objection was made by many
delegates to patronizing a non-union
institution.
The convention agreed to make the
report on the annual report of Presi-
dent Gompers special order of busi-
ness for Thursday at a. m.
The special committee on dispute of
the electrical workers over two dele
cations sent by contending factions of
that union reported a compromise
seating F. ]. Multy and F. J. Fahey
as delegates and unseating H. w.
Potter, H. w. Sherman and J. J. Reid.
The committee also urged the two fac
tions to hold a special convention in
st. Louis, January IS, 1909, which a
representative of the federation, ap-
pointed by President Gompers, or if
possible Mr.. Gompers himself, shall
attend in an advisory capacity and de-

delegates objected to the report of the

HIS TIRES EXPLODED.
Automobile Racer Killed While Going
so Miles an Hour.

Birmingham, Ala, Nov. IL
Forcing his Renault car to a speed of
more than go miles an hour in an
effort to lower the 24-hour automobile
record, Emile Stricken was almost in
stantly killed early today on the fair
grounds track here. Leon Barrows of
this city, who was in the car with
Stricken, was seriously though not
fatally injured.
AT O'Clock last night Lewis Strang
and Emile Stricken began the effort to
lower the 24-hour record, Strang being
relieved by Stricken in the Renauit
car at 12:43 this morning. Stricken
began making terrific speed almost i'm
mediately. The track was poorly
lighted and when the car dashed
around the curve at the west end at
better than a 6O-mile clip, one tire ex-
ploded and this was followed quickly
by the explosion of a second tire and
in an instant the car was a total
wreck.
Stricken and Barrows were picked
up and hurried to a hospital, but
Stricken died before medical aid reach
ed him. He was a native of Alsace-
Lorraine, Germany.
He was scheduled to drive a Nation
al car in the grand prize race at Sa-
vannah on Thanksgiving.

Railroad Commissioners Looking Over

The state railroad commissioners
started out today from Atchison for

accompanied by c. H. Clark, vice
president of the Missouri Pacific, and

man. who spent 40 years of his life
in railroad construction work. He
will be depended upon by the board
to give it expert advice on just how
bad the track really is.
1t is understood that the Central
branch of the Missouri Pacific, which
extends west from Atchison, and will
be first examined by the commission
ers, has been undergoing some extern
sive repairs during the past few
weeks. Frank J. Ryan, one of the
several times recently, and after his
return from his last trip said:
''I have been over the line several
times recently, and find that a con-
siderable amount of work is being
done out there. 1 am informed that
between AtchisOn and Greenleaf, and
that on the western end of the line,
the company is preparing to lay
heavier steel, and ballast the rOadbed.
1t is the opinion of many patrons of
the road that the Missouri Pacific
give the people out there what they
have long needed-a good railroad"

A telephone message this morning
from MerrilPs ranch, Il miles from

MORE INDIAN SUMMER.
Is Above Sixty Degrees
Today.

With a temperature above the nor
NAL for this time of year, today has
been one of the most delightful days
of the season. There hasn't been a
single detracting feature to the brand
which Mr.. Jennings and his staff have
booked for today. A little outdoor
walk is all that is needed as a sure
cure for the blues. Tomorrow it may
be little warmer, if it isn't it will be
just about the same. The present
conditions will doubtlesse prevail all
week. Mr.. Jennings says he is far
sighted enough to promise good foot
ball weather for next Saturday If
that is the case the Farmers from
Manhattan ought to have a good har-
vest and make hay while the sun
shines. The wind today is eighteen
miles from the southwest. The fol-
lowing hourly readings of the govern
ment thermometer tell the story of to-
daV'S weather better than words.

MUST CHANGE LABELS.
Government Will Refuse to Register
Kind Now in Use.

Washington, Nov. 17.--According to
a sweeping decision by the commits
sioner of patents any label bearing the
inscription guaranteed under the pure
food and drug acts. June 80, 1906"
where such inscription is intended to
imply that the government is respon-
sible for the purity of the goods will
be refused registration. It is claimed
that hundreds of packers and others
throughout the country are printing
their labels so as to give this impress
sion, whereas it is held by the officials,
the government simply accepts the as
sertion of the manufacturer that the
goods are pure and then investigates
his business. Upon proof that the
pure food and drugs act is being vio-
lated the goods are confiscated and the
manufacturers punished.

THEY MAY FIGHT.
Railroads Likely to Resist Twenty
Eight Hour Law.

1t now begins to look as though the
railroads that are plaintiffs in some
forty cases filed in the United States
circuit court for alleged violations of
the twenty-eight hour law, would
fight at the November term of the
court which cOnvenes next week in
Topeka. These roads plead guilty at
Leavenworth last month and were
fined in the aggregate sum of $1,000
by Judge Pollock in some fifteen
cases.
The government is preparing for a
legal battle, having summoned one
hundred witnesses from eleven west
ern states to appear in this case. The
Santa Fe, Rock Island, Union Pacific,
