ROM AN BRICKS.

When the preparations for rebuild
ing the Campanile in Venice were I'M
dertaken the psychologists were af-
forded an opportunity to make some
interesting studies of the bricks.
1t was found that they had been used
in arches, Notifications, the tops of
walls and in other ways before they
were built into the Campanile, and
that they were not Venitian, but Ro-
man, bricks.
These ancient bricks were made in
slices, for in many of the layers could
be seen undisturbed. 1t is said that
bricks made this way can bear a
greater weight than modern bricks.
The bricks examined were of the
first century. One of them bore the
imprint of horseshoe, which may
prove that Romans used a horseshoe
like ours, although it is generally be
lieved that their horseshoes were
strapped on, not nailed.-Harper's

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED
by local applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional rem
edies. Deafness is caused by an In
famed condition of the mucous lining
of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is infiamed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed, Deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation
can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition. hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine cases
out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces.

FRIDAY THE 18TH.
JONAHS T. M'COMAS

The combination Of Friday. the
thirteenth and the evident desire Of
q cigar box motorman to establish
a new record for the North Eighth
street line resulted most unhappily
for r. T. McComas, an aged driver
Of a merchants delivery wagon.
Mr.. McComas was navigating his
craft along North A street and
while crossing the dangerous
Eighth street channel. where the
picturesque relics of the street car
company are wont to dash giddily
to and fro. he ran foul Of car 313-
notice the thirteen-and the vehicle
was reduced to junk. The venera-
BILE driver was uninjured, in fact
his feelings were not even hurt.
The horse received a few scratch
cs. but was calm and dignisied.
After the street car resumed it's
northward dash, Mr.. McComas
gathered up the parcels which he
was hauling. and after providing
for his horse. set out to distribute
them afoot. In parting he remarked
he had been in a similar wreck five
years ago. but his rig had only
been damaged to the extent Of one
dollar and he had spurned the
claim agent who had desired to
settle for this trivial amount.

The interest Ii Increased by the vast
amount OF uncertainty that attends
the results of the contests. The Dem

something OF a surprise and the sena-

complications OF the situation.
There are more than half dozen
candidates for the tosas and nearly
all OF them are conducting active cam

likely to be affected and that event

three or four entries.
