DEAFNESS CAN NOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they can not
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way 10 cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed
condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have rumbling sound or inn
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, deafness is the result, and unless
the inflammation can be taken outand this
tube restored to it's normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out Of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inhamed condi-

EXPLORERS CLUB tied

FOUND HIS CLAIMS TO REACHED SUMMIT

The committees recommendation
was based on its findings that 'sDr.
Cook had repeatedly made state
ments that have not been in accord
with the facts and that he had en-
tered into mis-statem ents and broken
agreements which deal not only with
matters appertaining to discovery but
to ordinary transactions, SO that no
credence can be given to statements
made by him"
Among the seven signatures ap-
pended to this arraignment, are those
Of Caspar Whitney and Anthony FL
ala, both personal friends of DR..
Cook. The committee is further ex-
plicit in its statement that it under
took it's investigation only after first
apprising DR.. Cook of its purpose,
which he approved in person and that
it has disregarded entirely the testi-
mony Of Edward Barrill. DR.. Cooks
guide, and Of Frederick Printz,, his
packer, although such testimony was
before them because it wished no
cloud of partisan contention, or Ques-
ton of financial interest to dim the
integrity of its verdict. rE".. (. 3,

(By Associated PresS.)

New York, Dec. 24.-The board of
governors of the Explorers club met
today in executive session and, stand
ing in silence voted with bowed heads
that Dr. Frederick A. Cook be drop
ped from the rolls Of the club for
frauds practiced on its members and
on the public. Coming hard upon
the heels of the crushing verdict
lately rendered by the University of
Copenhagen, the action of the Ex-
p1orers' club today is the result Of
independent Investigations which in
no way touch upon the polar contro-
versy and the weight of it's disap-
proval thus becomes cumulative.
Preliminary to it's vote of expul-
sion, the board met to pass upon the
report of its committee, which has
been investigating the validity of DR..
Cooks assertion that he reached the
summit of Mount Mckinley. This
committee in concluding an eXhaus-
tive report recommend that "Dr.
Cooks claim that he ascended the
summit of Mount Mckinley in 1906
be rejected by the Explorers club as
Enthusiastically of credence."

Office this afternoon. Both sides are
agreed on all questions save as to the
time when all of the striking switch
men shall be taken back to work.
The switchmen insist that all strik-
ers be taken back to work at once
but this the railroads say they are
not in a position to do on account of
the obligations assumed when the
strikebreakers were imported. The
railroads offered to- take back as

Redding, Conn, Dec. 24.-Mark
Twain's invalid daughter Jean, met
death tragically this morning while
at the bath, bringing poignant grief
at Christmas time to Stormtield, the
country home Of the great American
humorist. She was mis- youngest
daughter, endeared to him not only
by long companionship, but by her
frail health, caused by recurrent at
tacks of epilepsy Her death leaves
Mr.. Clemens without kin in this
country to share his sorrow. for his
surviving daughter, Clara, recently
married to GabriIowisck, the Russian
pianist, is now on her way to Europe.
Jean Clemens died not directly
from drowning, as was first 'suppos-
ed, but more probably from strangu-
lation due to an attack of epilepsy or
from heart failure. The body was
found in the bath tub with the head
only partly submerged and medical
examination showed neither of the
lungs contained very little water.
With characteristic philosophy
Mark Twain is bearing up bravely IN
his time of grief Hundreds of mes
sages of coincidence are arriving
from throughout this country and
abroad. death had already taken
from him his wife and his daughter,
Susan.
Jean Clemens was about thirty
years old and was her fathers close
companion in his literary work. Since
early womanhood she had been sub
ject to epilepsy, but in recent years
her health had improved, particular
1y last fall.
