OF Its Own Accord.

Washington, July Tt is on its
own initiative, not on orders from the
department of justice here, that the
Western Union Telegraph Company
has discontinued it's service to num-
ber of stock brokers' offices in New
York and elsewhere. This was the
declaration made tonight by an OIL
cial of the department of justice, who
played a prominent part in the re-
cent raids made on so-called bucket
shops" by the department. He de-
clared that the department would
have no right to order the telegraph
company to discontinue it's service
unless it could be proved that it had
broken some federal statute and that
this had not been done. One OF the
brokerage concerns, a Baltimore firm,
whose service was stopped yesterday,
had an injunction issued to-day, he
said, against the telegraph company
to compel it to renew its service.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion OF the ear.
There is only one way to cure dear,
ness. and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infiamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the eustachian tube. When this
tube is infamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deafness IS
the result, and unless the intiamma-
tion can be taken out and this tube
restored to it's normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an inf1am-
ed condition of the mucous 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 clrcu-
lars free. F. J. CHENEY & CO.,

DROWNING NEAR COLUMBIA.
Husband and Companion Held for
Death of Woman.

Columbia, July 1.-The wife OF
Bookter T. Martin, better known as
Clio Starnes, was downed late to-day
in Hampton's pond, near Columbia.
The suspicious circumstances sur
rounding her death led to the arrest
of Bookter T. Martin, her husband, |,
and Lewis Neeley, who are held
pending the coroner inquest, which
will take place on Sunday afternoon.
Constable j. D. Dunnaway, who ar
rived at Hampton's before the body
had been recovered, placed Neeley
and Martin under arrest. Mabel
Blackburn, the fourth member OF the
party, who lives in a disorderly house
run by Dallas Starnes, was not ar
rested.
The two men are said to have been
drinking heavily and were still under
the influence of liquor when they
were arrested. A few small boys
were the only eye-witnesses of the
tragedy, besides Neeley, Martin and
the Blackburn woman. One Of the
boys said last night that one of the
men had Mrs. Martin on his back out
in the water. In some way she fell
off and was drowned. 1t Is alleged
that the men had previously threat
ened to drown one of the boys.
Mrs. Bookter Martin, the dead wo-
man, is said to have led a very
checkered career previous to her
marriage to Martin, who loves eigh-
teen miles out on the Camden road.
The two did not stay together long
after they were married Lewis Nee
ly, now being held on suspicion, was
recently released from the county
Jail, where he was held pending the
investigation of the disappearance OF
Morgan Smoak, a 15-year-old boy o!
Waverly, who has not been heard OF
since June 8.

SLABS HIS WIFE.
White Man in Augusta Kills Her
With Sharp Razor.

Tom Desmuke, a white man, who
lives out on the Savannah road, sew
eral miles from Augusta, Ca, cut
the brachial artery in the left arm
of his wife last night with a razor
and she bled to death shortly after
wards. Desmuke was arrested af-
ter the crime by county officer and
did not offer any resistance. The
crime was a horrible one and there
seems to be no motive for it. Des-
nuke was drunk at the time.
When the officer went to Des-
muke's house to arrest him, Des-
nuke met him at the door, attired
in only one garment, a top shirt,
which was stained with blood. The
only witness to the crime was Des-
