DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannn' reach the pdiseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitution al remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this 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 in- flammation 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 caus- ed by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflame dcondition 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 Catarrh Cure. Send for circu- lars free. F. J. CHENEY & CO.,, To- ledo, Ohio.

were NOJ SeFlOuSly HuTls
 Three young girls and a young man barely escaped being killed and all of them were more or less bruised, but not seriously hurt in a runaway, on the macadam road. three miles south of Pine Bluff, Sunday afternoon. The wagon was overturned, throwing the four occupants over the embankment. One of the young girls, about fourteen yea"s old, sustained a badly sprain- ed ankle and the others, her two sis ters and the brother, were bleeding from wounds about the faces and bod ies when picked up and taken to their home, short distance away, in Will liam Burke's automobile. Their names were not learned. MT. Burke and his family, accompanied by Misses Galloway and Miss Maggie Stevens, were riding in the automobile and were crossing one of the iron bridges on the macadam road when they saw runaway team coming towards them quarter of mile away. MT. Burke stopped his machine on the bridge and prepared to check the team but before the horses reached the bridge the wagon went over the en- bankment. The tongue of the wagon broke, frightening the animals and they ran away. The occupants of the automobile say that it is miracle that none of the occupants of the wagon were killed.

committed, $409; appealed, S10.
 City Street Commissioner c. H. Col Her, who is recovering from a recent illness, was granted ten day leave of absence.
 The council ordered the city engi- neer to open East Seventh avenue from the East line of Main street to the Gould subdivision. This prop erty is claimed by the city as a street. It will seriously interfere, it is said, with the plans of the Mann- Tankersley Drug Company, which re- gently announced that it would erect new building on the site.
 Petitions from property owners along Twentieth, Twenty-second and Twenty-fourth avenues and in1ersect- ing streets, Laurel Oak, Elm, Poplar, Cherry and Linden, for street lights were granted. Street lights were al' so ordered placed on Seventh avenue from Nebraska to Wisconsin streets. Alderman Jordan stated that many likhts had been ordered placed year ago in other sections of the city, but he declared that the company that has the contract with the city for furn- ishing them, has never placed them and has made no effort to do so. He said the property owners who peti- tioned the council last night for lights had very poor prospects of getting them soon.

DAMAGE TO COTTON
 IS UNEXPLAINED

J. H. Brooks, well known farmer near Sherrill, this county, brought a sack full of cotton bolls to the Graph ic office yesterday, which had the ap- pearance of being totally destroyed. He says fourth of his crop has been destroyed in the same manner, but he is unable to account for the damage. The bolls are crumbling and the cot ton in them is undeveloped and has the appearance of being packed. MT. Brooks says he found some worms on the bolls, but he is not sune whether the worms caused the damage. The planters around him have suffered similar damage on their places and are unable to explain the caune. of 1t.

NATURE OF DATA THAT rs TO BE SECURED BY
F.C GOODRICH KEPT DARK BY
FEDERAL OFFICIALS
Thought that Withdrawal of Power Sites Will Follow
Close Upon Return and Report of Party
Sent Into the Mountains

Is the trip of =. C. Goodrich, a aov-
ernment official, into the mountains and
supposedly to the streams in this VI
cinity, the ore-runner Of the whole
sale withdrawal of power sites in this
region? Will his Investigations result
in the shutting off of the filing on the
many streams available for the de.
velopment Of water power in the Blue
mountains?
These questions have been revoIved
over and over in the minds Of the few
who knew of the start Of the govern
ment agent this morning into the Blue
mountains, with the Toll Gate as his
first objective. And if these two ques-
tions can be answered in the affirma-
tive, others are asked, without solution,
as follows:
Does the supposed withdrawal come
in the interests of private corporations
or is it against them? Is Secretary Ball
niger working against the sobbIins up
of the power sites in the northwest by
the General Electric company, or is he
working in the interest of friends to
keep competition out of the field
against railroads reputedly in his good
graces?

The party was equipped with snow

secrecy was maintained by the men as
to the purpose of the expedition, and
only rumor and guesswork can explain
Its, objective. Goodrich did not order
the team left at the Toll Gate. nor
did he make any specifications as to
its return. Telephone service from that
place. however, will enable him to
secure it upon his return.
