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 constitu-
tional remedies Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is infamed
you have rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed. Deafness
is the result, and unless the inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition. hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten caused by
Catarrh, which is nothing but an inhamed con-
dition of the mucous usrfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that can
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for
circulars, free.

PURsER REMOVED FROM
 AMERICAN SHIP BORlNQUEN
William Garhe, a German, Who Had Taken Out Naturalization Papers.

New York. Dec. 20.-Wilhelm Garbe, of Brooklyn, purser of the American steamer BorinQuen, was removed from the vessel off the harhor of San Juan, Porto Rico, by officers of the French cruiser Descarles, according to the Borinquen skipper. The ship arrived here today.
 According to Captain Dow of the Borinquen, the incident occurred about 1 a. m. on December 15, while his ship was five miles outside San Juan har- bor. After officers from the Descarles had come aboard. they sent a boat alongside and directed Garbe to get in. To stop the Borinquen, the Des- carries threw her searchlight on her, then fired a blank shot across her bows. The cruiser, according to the Borinquen's officers, had apparently been waiting for the steamer to leave San Juan.
 At the Bull-Insular line, owners of the BorinQuen, it was said Captain Dow had not made a wireless report of the search of the vessel and removal of the purser. Six or seven months ago another of the lines vessels was stopped and searched by a British cruiser, but no one removed.
 Garbe, it was said, was a German, but had taken out his first citizenship papers some time ago. He had been employed by the line about three years.

REAPING BENEFIT
From the Experience of Norwich
 People.

We are fortunate indeed to be able to profit by the experience of our neighbors. The public utterances of Norwich residents on the following subject will interest and benefit many of our readers. Read this statement. No better proof can be had
 Mrs. Jared Hewitt, Palmer St., Nor wich, says: For several months I was bothered by pains across the small of my back and from other symptoms. I knew that my kidneys were at fault and got box of Doans Kidney Pills at N. D. -sevin & Sons Drug Store. Soon after using them, the pain in my back disappeared and my health improved"
 Price soc, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy-get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that Mrs Hewitt had Foster -Milburn Co.,, Props, Buffalo, N. Y.

DEVELOPMENTS OF WELLAND
 CANAL PLOT INVESTIGATION
Federal Officials May Prove Conspiracy
 Extended Throughout Country.

New oYrb, Dec. 2O.-Information ob- tained by the federal authorities today from witnesses appearing before the grand jury which is Investigating the alleged plot of Paul Koenig, head of the detective bureau of the Hamburg American line, to blow up the Welland canal, has widely extended the scope of the inquiry.
 Federal officials state that the Vel land canal plot may prove to be mere ly an incident in a conspiracy which extended throughout the country.
 Indictments against Koenig and Richard Emil Leyendecker, the New York art goods dealer, who was ar rested with him, are expected to be returned later in the week. United States Attorney Marshall has adrStE- ted that these indictments would be forerunnerS of others to be sought from subsequent grand juries dealing with other activities of Koenig.
 While the Koenig case was before one federal grand jury, Samuel Com pers. president of the merican Fed eration of Labor, was appearing be- fore another, which is inquiring into the case of Franz Won Rintelen, charged with instigating strikes in munitiOn factories.
 After leaving the grand jury room Mir. Gompers declared that he knew of no instance in which any leader of or ganized labor had been corrupted by German agents. He intimated, how ever, that he had information in re- gard to attempts being made to bribe union hands. MT. Gompers will re- sure his testimony tomorrow. Frank Morrison, secretary of the Federation of Labor, will also appear before the jury.

FORCES OF NAVY
 ARE INADEQUATE
Daniels Asks for 7,5oo Additional Blue
 jackets and 1,5oo Marines.

Washington, Dec. 20.-Navy depart ment officials, it was learned tonight. are seriously concerned over the in adequacy of the forces available to guard navy yards, arsenals and other places where navy equipment is man ufactured or stored. With large part of the marine corps on expeditionary duty in Haiti and on the Mexican coast, guards at the navy plants are now as strong as officials think they should be for adequate protection. No mare marines or bluejackets can be spared from the fleet. Secretary Dan iels has asked congress to provide for 1,500 additional bluejackets, 2,500 ap- prentice seamen and 1,500 marines to meet this condition
 A somewhat similar condition pre- vails in the war department with the bulk of the mobile army stationed along the Mexican border. Guards at army posts and arsenals, except such posts as are housing regular garrisons, are few in number. A majority of the coast defense batteries are in charge of caretakers. The annual report of the chief of coast artillery shows that guns worth $41,000,0 900 are without trained forces to man them.
 Various suggestions have been put forward as to where to find trustwor- thy trained men as guards and the problem is being given serious consid- eration.

Not a Bite of
 Breakfast Until
 You Drink Water
says a glass of hot water and phosphate prevents illness
 and keeps Us fst.

Just as coal, when 1t burns, leaves behind a certain amount of incom- bustible material in the form of ashes, so the food and drink taken day after day leaves in the alimentary canal @ certain amount of indigestible ma terial, which if not completely elirnina- ted from the system each day, be- comes food for the millions of bacteria which infest the bowels. From this mass of leftover waste, toxins and ptomain-like poisons are formed and sucked into the blood.
 Men and women who can't get feel ing right must begin to take inside baths. Before eating breakfast each morning drink glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of lime stone phosphate in 1t to wash out of days accumulation of poisons and toxins and to keep the entire alimen- tary canal clean, pure and fresh.
 Those who are subject to sick head ache, colds, biIiousness, constipation, others who wake up with bad taste, foul breath. backache, rheumatic stlf- ness, or have a sour, gassy stomach after meals. are urged to get quarter pound of limestone phosphate from the drug store, and begin practicing internal sanitation. This will cost very little, but is sufficient to make anyone an enthusiast on the subject.
 Remember inside bathing is more important than outside bathing, be- cause the skin pores do not absorb impurities into the blood, causing poor health. while the bowel pores do. sweetens and freshens the skin. so hot water and limestone phosphate act on the stomach, liver kidneys and bowels

was adduced to show that the babies were neglected at the institutions.
 Since the commission began its work the police have closed the resorts in the red light" districts here formerly tolerated by the authorities. Accord ing to the report, however, there Is no evidence that immortality is not prac- ticed as extensively as ever. Much Of this evil Is practiced clandestinely says the commission, and business places, offices, boarding places and even homes are said to have been found in great numbers where inn morality is introduced and continued in practice
 Much attention is given to social conditions in factories, stores and of fee buildings, and many instances are given of immortality forced upon girls by their employers or their superiors at their places of employment, the penalty of refusal being the loss of position.
 The board believes that continua- ton of the inquiry is desirable and recommends the creation of a perma- nent morals board.

REIcHsTAG DEBATES
 A PoST-BELLUM TAX
Calls for Reserve of 50 Per Cent. on
 War Time Profits.

Berlin, via London. Dec. 20, $50 D. m.-The debate in the reachstag of the governments measures to prepare the way for a post-bellum tax on all war profits, by requiring companies and corporations ot lay aside a spe- cial reserve of 50 per cent of their wartime profits, promises to extend itself into a discussion of methods to recover for the state undue or ex- cessive profits on war contracts.
 The reports that great profits are being gathered by contractors for army and navy supplies have resulted in the initiation in Germany, as in other belligerent countries, of a pop ular movement for special taxation on war profits, but the government, in in troducing the preparatory bill felt compelled to adopt the principle of general taxation on all increases of profits during the war years.
