peafness Cannot ee cured

by local applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is. only one way to cure deafness.
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness Is caused by an inhamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
infamed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing. and when 1t is en-
tirely closed. deafness is the result. and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its nor
NAL condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh. which is nothing
but an intlamed condition of the mu-
cous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness Caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls

FELL INTO BOILING SPRING.
Former Boone Man Has Marrow Es
cape from Horrible Death,

Special to Times Republican.
Boone, June 26.-Word has been re-
ceived In this city from Reno, New, of
the narrow escape from a most horri-
BILE death, Of G. f. Engstrom, of that
city. formerly from a prominent and
pioneer Boone county family. He is the
brother of Otto Engstrom. now resi-
dent OF Boone, and connected with the
Olmstead Clothing Company. Eng
strom was suddenly precipitated into
boiling water, ESQ degrees Fahrenheit.
and yet lives to tell the tale. He was
sojourning at Amadee Cal, when the
accident happened. He is now confined
to his hotel, and is under the constant
care Of physicians. His lower limbs
were literally cooked, and he was 9TH
erwise injured. That Engstrom did not
plunge head first into the boiling wa
ter is due to his own activity. The ac-
cident happened in one of the many
boiling springs at the above resort.
Word from there today was to the ef-
feet that he was improving, altho his
condition was precarious.

TRIED TO JUMP INTO RIVER.
Stranger at Cedar Rapids Stopped /,
Lean from Rridoe.


Cedar Rapids, June 26.-It appeared
to people who were anywhere near the
First avenue bridge as if they would
be treated to a thrilling high dive by
a man who had taken on an overload
of whisky and created a sensation by
climbing to the top of one of the high
bridge spans and stood on top Of the
narrow girder waving his arms and
to jump into the river be-
low. distance of perhaps fifty feet.
He said he wished to take swim, and
was going to show the 'rubes' in this
mans town that he was a regular cut
up in the water by making a high
dive" It looked for a time as tho he
would carry out his threat, but as it
happened one of the spectators below
offered him a cigaret and this induced
him to come down from his perilous
perch. After he had come down he still
wanted to jump into the river. even
getting partly over the railing, but was
prevented from jumping by a young
man who held him until the arrival of
the officers. He gave his name as John
Carney and Pittsburg as his home.

WILL COMBAT TRUST.
Texas Farmers Will Not Sell Cotton
 Seed to Mills.

Galveston, Texas.-The Farmers Union of Texas in session here com bined to fight the cotton seed mill trust, which they claim for years has been bleeding the cotton grow CTS. They have perfected arrange ments to sell their cotton seed to mill representative who will export the product.
 While the names of the packers are not given out, it is understood English capital is behind the move and that seed will be exported to Liverpool and ground at foreign mills. There are nearly 200 mills in Texas and for several years they have been in a combine and have di- vided the state into buying districts to which each mill limited it's pur- chase of seed and at a price dictated by their association. Last season outside buyers paid ST to $2O a ton for cotton seed, while the Texas trust mills paid only s13 to s1- a ton. The non-union cotton growers joined in the move not to sell to Texas mills This means that about 100000 tons of seed valued at s15,000,000 will be sold outside of Texas. The Texas mills promise to fight the movement on freight rates.

 Arrangement Can Be
 Made, if Desired.

Little Rock-Goyernor Donaghey on Saturday issued a statement to the effect that he believes an arrange ment could be made with the Capitol Commission for Caldwell & Drake to finish the new state capitol building.
 The Governor states that it has been contended by some people that Caldwell & Drake should be allowed to finish the building on the ground that the contractors have said they would finish it under their contract for .S33S,000. The Governor states that if the contractors are willing to take the job at that price he Is will ing for them to do so, reserying to the present commission and architect all the rights, privileges and author ity that accrued to the original com mission and architect. The Governor states that he has always contended that Caldwell X Drake should not be allowed to have anything to do with the completion of the building, but that he does not now believe there would be any risk in such action un- der new commission.
 In his statement the Governor also shows a tendency to believe that in case of arbitration it would be found that Caldwell & Drake were indebted to the state, instead of the state to Caldwell & Drake
 The Governor scarcely expects the former contractors to accept his prop osition.

 Judge Asher also appointed Dr. Horace Rice as the commissioner to buy mules for the work As Dr. Rice is a veterinary surgeon, Judge Asher concluded he would be a competent man to pick out mules and know their value. The judge has been in- structed to buy some 15 or 16 mules.
 The Military or Hot Springs road will be the first one worked on uu- der the new plan The road will be shaped up for it's entire length through this county and in some parts may be widened The county owns a fine rock erusher and prob ably the first main work will be done in crushing rock The judge intends to see to it that the roads of Pulaski county are made into reg ulation turnpikes.
