the treasurer they will find they must
pay more or less according to the
valuations just reached. The town
must pay the cost of assessment. The
assessor was J. A. McNutt of Warrens.
He was able to recall every converse
ton he had had with the property
owners and manifested keen mem
ory. The board consisted of Henry
Serge of Reedsburg, Ell. l.. HaIsted of

- ~
changed next spring a re-assessment
will be ordered. Many cities, villages

Deafness Cannot be 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 infamed
condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you haveia rumbling sound OF
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tireIy closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be DIES
troyed forever; nine cases out OF ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
ing but an infamed 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

S. S. BASEBALL.
Schedule of Concluding Games of
the Series is Fixed.

At meeting of the managers of
the Sunday School Baseball League
held last Saturday evening it was
decided to play the remaining games
two a week instead of one a week,
as heretofore. This was thought best
on account of the fact that it gets
dark earlier each week, which would
soon cut the games too short. At
the rate of , two games a week the
schedule will last just three weeks
longer, and has been arranged as
follows:
Tuesday, July 2-Methodists VS..
Christians.
Friday, July Christians VS..
Baptists.
Tuesday, July 29-Congregation-
ais VS.. Methodists.
Friday, August 1-Congregation-
ais VS.. Baptists.
Tuesday, August 5-Baptists VS..
Methodists.
Friday, August S-Christians VS..
Congregationals.
For the present the custom of hav-
ing the games free of admission will
be continued. The hour will still be
$40, and all are invited to attend.
All who are to participate in the
games are requested to be on hand
little before $50 in order that the
game can be called promptly at that
hour.
The league has decided to accept
the challenge from the Grants Pass
team for game to be played al

WATER TANK BURSTED
Southern Pacific Tank at Coles Col
lapsed Thursday and Blocked
Track-Laying Trains.

The Southern Pacific water tank
at Coles, station on the Southern
Pacific railway practically on the
state line, collapsed Thursday after
noon and the company suffered the
loss of lot of water. AS it did not
come from the stocks the company is
still solvent. The wreck of the tank,
however, blocked the main track and
it was necessary to send a wrecker
over from here to clear it. All
northbound trains were delayed
about two hours that day.
There were IA men working under
the tank when it collapsed and it is
almost miraculous that there were
none of them killed or seriously in
jured. The tank is supported upon
posts IA feet high and when it col
lapsed it threw the tank itself to one
side. The men had meanwhile
dropped into the pump pit beneath
the tank and even had the debris
landed where the tank stood they
would have escaped. Mr.. Quinn, the
foreman, was slightly injured and all
the rest escaped entirely.

DR.. MacCullough of Medford made
splendid impression Friday morn
ing when he spoke on purity in liter
ature and art. He mentioned the
great blessing a library can be in a
community. When the young people
read such books as "The Scarlet Let
ter" or "The Heavenly Twins" it up
lifts them. But he denounced the
tons of trash that are gathered up
by some non-thinking library COM
mittees and form a sewerage that
breeds disease of mind. He de-
nounced the immoral show and the
questionable picture. These things
help to pollute our nation. AS a
result of carelessness the seeds of
immortality are sown. In New York
city 5000 girls are arrested every
night. How many mothers know
where their daughters are after
dark? Then it is that those seeds
blossom out, and the girl disappears,
and there is darkness unutterable in
the home. Vice is sapping our ma
tion. No longer can we point with
scorn to the morals of France. To-
day the birth rate here is the lowest
of any civilized nation. Disease has
sapped our vitality, and we find, as
in the city of New York, women
wheeling little baby cabs in which
repose beautifully curled poodles.
Sex hygiene must be taught, said
