Deafness Cannot Re ,nred

There is only one way to cure deaf

of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube Is inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
1t is entirely closed, deafness is the
result, and unless tho inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restor-

BELGIAN PEOPLE
FACING A PANIC
POPULATION OF BRUSSELS FAC.
ING A SERIOUS SITUATION IN
MATTER OF sUSTENANcE.
Belgian Troops at Antwerp Make
Nightly Raids on German outposts
and Their Supply Trains.

London, Sept 29.-9:O5 p. m.-The
scarcity Of food in Brussels has raised
grave problem. according to r. G.
HawlIin, who has just returned from
Belgium after completing arrang.
ements to transfer a number of
wounded Be gian soldiers to England
THE situation in Brussels is one OF
great uncertainty" said Mr.. Hawllin
tonight There is the gravest danger
of starvation. Food is scarce and 1870
900 people are applying for rations
which the German administration is
finding it difficult to supply There
is further danger that the working
men Of the city may rise in revolt"
Mr.. HawlIin was greatly impressed
by the spirit of the Belgian troops at
Antwerp. Regarding conditions there.
ne said
Every night a sortie is made and
every morning brings its quote of
dead and wounded some times as
many as 1000. making a heavy drain
on the garrison; but the usefulness
of these expeditions cannot be exag-
gerated. The German outposts are
reported as almost terrorized, not a
night passing without some of them
being picked off or some of their sup
ply trains being blown up. All these
incidents tend to upset the carefully
p AIMED ARRANGEMENTS of the German
army. The Belsians at Antwerp have
been nicknamed the BLACK Rats" on
account of their destructive nocturnal
activities.
ut is remarkable that in spite of
the vigor of the military operations
the greater proportion both of killed
and wounded are civilians. The Ger
mans undoubtedly have tried to striks
terror to the hearts of the people of
Antwerp in order that their determin-
alton to hold out to the end might be
shattered but the firm resolve of King
Albert to resist all German offers has
endeared him to the hearts of his peo-
pie and they are content to 70 low his
lead. This was shown when his maj
esty refused even to receive the last
German deputation."
Mr.. lIawkin added that the Ant
werp hospitals were full and the fact
that the Germans with the occupation
of Brussels has annexed the Belgian
Red Cross organization, including its
funds, left its Red Cross branches in
great difficulty. Consequently the
Belgian government gladly accepted
the proposal that conva' escant wound

Of their injuries would he unable to

The pictures in the Hearst-Seiig
Weekly, which will be seen today IN
the New Central, where the weekly
is one Of the big features of a very
good program, prove that the camera
men are now in the war zone and
that motion photography is having its
inning where the great European war
game is being played. In spite OF
the rigid censorship that is apparent
IN maintained where correspondents
are concerned, the HearstSelig men
have actually been following the
army, and they have sent to this
country some of the best war pictures
ever made. The most important OF
the lot will be seen in the New Cen
trail today Among the views shown
is a part of Belgian soldiers chasing
a band of raiding Uhlaas, and the
fight between the two, but possibly
the picture that will attract the most
attention and show all too well the
horrors of this war is the film show
ing the ruins of Tremond, which tells
a mute story of the havoc of shells
and wars devastation. There are
other good war scenes in this reel
and il will be the medium of attract

Paris, Sept. 29.-S:1 10 p. m.-The

ARBITRATION BY
UNITED STATES
THIS COUNTRY MAY HEREAFTER
BE CALLED UPON TO SETTLE
EUROPEAN DISPUTES.
England Takes Initiative in Suggest
ing That Future Wars Be Averted
in Europe.

London, Sept. 29.-2:35 p. H.
English officials express confidence
that the United States, at the proper
time, will exert its good offices to
bring the European war to a close
under conditions insuring permanent
peace. President Wilson's recent
statement that peace overtures vera
premature at the time have proved
reassurilg here.
High officials today expressed the
opinion that the United States, after
the combatants become exhausted,
Will make it possible to negotiate a
treaty requiring the European ma
tions to submit further difficulties to
the Uaited States for arbitration,
thus making a recurrence of the war
impossible.
1t was pointed out here today that
even though President Wilson's ten
der OF mediation is not pressed at the
present moment it stands open as a
convenient means of approaching the
subject and provides the means for
continuous Informal discussion of
peace prospects out of which sooner
or later may come definite proposals.
1t is felt that the first prerequisite is
to have England, France and Russia,
the nations which have signed an
agreement binding themselves not to
make peace separately, consider
among themselves some basis for
treating with the powers with which
they are at war.
The suggestion from London of a
treaty requiring European nations to
submit their mutual differences to
the arbitration of the United States
is thought to be an outgrowth of
Secretary Bryaa's peace treaties re-
Gently signed with England, France
and many other countries. In some
diplomatic quarters the view prevails
that the Initiative of the United
States will bring together many ma
TONS includin gthose now at war, in
comprehensive plan to avert a pre-
cipitate recourse to war.

No musical organization which
ever visited Hot Springs has created
such favorable impression as the
famous Leichti Quartette, which
closes its engagement with the last
show tonight. This is one of the
greatest singing quartettes ever
heard in Hot Springs, said to be tho
greatest quartette now in vaudeville.
Composed of two male ald two fe-
male voices, cleverly blended, every
one high class artist, the quartette
has made a name for itself in Hot
Springs that will last for many a
week
All the other acts on the present
bill are meeting with almost equal
success. Bettina Bruce AID Charles
Keane, in their merry sketch, Cupid,
ID. NJ" never fail to register a big
hit, while Bond Morse, the tramp
comedian, and Bayles and England,
singing, talking and dancing team,
are decidedly clever and entertain
ing.
The feature picture, the opening
comedy and the two-reel Exclusive
special, The Fatal Grotto,' are two
of the best offerings of the week.
The comedy shows the greatest
trained horse in the world, taking an
active and clever part as the leading
comedian of the piece. The Princess
equipment now brings out these
clever pictures in a manner that
stamps them as the best in the city.
Thursday comes the big new
change of the bill. There are four
big vaudeville acts and two abso-
lutely new Exclusive pictures. a com
edy and a two-reel feature, making
another big six-act bill. The picture
section is the usual motion picture
bill, and our big vaudeville acts are
decidedly good measure for your
money.
Watch for the new bill, but don't
neglect to hear the Leichti Quartette
and the other big acts OF the present
bill. They are here for three more
shows today.
Bond Morse, while denying that he
ever ''hoboed it" would have a
mighty hard time convincing those
who have heard him at the Princess
that he never rode the bumpers" or
panhandled" the back doors. Morse

nothing if noJ a successful tramp
guy" He is the personification Of the
cartoonsts dream of weary willie
and he looks the part of the men who
raps at your back door and asks for

is his rapid fire wit, his JOY talk. that
is all to the good. You'll never see or
