The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known
to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being a constitutional disease, requires
a constitutional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby de-
stroying the foundation of the disease
and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and as.
sisting nature in doing its work. The

vision intact, will pass the House by
tonight.
The literacy test, barring with few
exceptions all aliens over 16 years
old, physically capable of reading
who can not read the English Ian
guage or some other language or dia-
lect, was approved by the House
working as a committee of the whole
by vote of 225 to 50. This presaged

MANCHESTER's MUSICAL ORGAN
EATON.

Last Tuesday evening will remain
a memorable one to the fortunate ones
who braved the worst storm of the sea
son to attend the second concert given
by the members of the Manchester
Musical Organization. Larger crowds
have often gathered in our hall, but
never before was any program rem
dered to a more select and cultured au-
dience. The high and artistic stand
ard which has been set by the past
performances of this organization, ac-
counts for this gathering of so many
true lovers of the really good in both
musical and dramatic entertainment.
Each member on the program gave ev-
idcnce of the most discriminating
taste on the part of the members.
The artistic perfection with which
the musical numbers were rendered
delighted all present The piano solo,
Symphonic Fantastique,' so wonder
fully rendered by Prof w. NJ. Good
win, held the audience spellbound.
Those who were unable to attend have
missed the opportunity of listening to
a true master of the art of musical in
depreciation. This number was so re-
alistic that his hearers could follow
the beautiful musical story without
need of words.
All were impressed by the skill and
perfection of tone achieved by the vio-
Inns. To these numbers Mrs. w. W..
Alexander proved a finished and SYM
pathetic accompanist.
The beautiful piano trio played by
Misses Gladys Gafin, Edna Myers and
Pauline Tully was accorded sincere
and appreciative applause by the audi
ence.
The hearty encore given Hon. G. d.
Loyett's vocal selection makes any
word of praise from us unnecessary.
Mrs. Lakcn Martins reading, "What
the Fiddle Told" was one of those
beautiful things we seldom hear in so
small a place as Manchester. The ex-
cellent manner in which it was given
and the exquisite violin accompani-
ment composed and player by Prof.
Goodwin, brought ears to the eyes of
the hearers.
THE Venetian Flower Dance" was
one of the most artstically staged
ever seen in our town. Words
fail when we try to describe the dainty
and graceful little maids who seemed
to have dropped straight from Fairy
land into our midst.
The sketch, "A Leap Year Episode,
brought a storm of applause from the
entire audience. Miss Julia Marie OAR
nell, in the leading role, Mr.. Wesley
Mcneil as leading man and Miss Pey-
ton Foster as maid were equal to pro-
fessionals in every sense of the word
The program from start to finish
was by far the best ever given by the
organization, each number being in
thorough keeping with high artistic

BREAK WITH GERMANY MAY OC,
CUR THIS WEEK.

Washington, March 2S.-Gravely
concerned over the latest compiled.
tons in the European situation, ad.
ministration officials yesterday were
making an earnest effort to get all
available facts so that a definite course
of action could be determined.
The sinking Of the steamer English
man, with the loss of one American
life, and the attack on the channel
steamer Sussex, whereby many Amer
leans were endangered, coming on top
of the seeming renewal of the general
submarine campaign, again has
brought the tension to a point where
break with the central powers will
cause no surprise.
1t was stated by high officials that if
the press dispatches are verified rela-
tons with Germany will be several.
In fact, all Washington expects a
break with Germany before the end of
the week.
The fact that there is no suggestion
made anywhere that either the Eng
lishman or the Sussex was armed has
added to the gravity of the outlook.
American Consul Whiteman at Bou-
logne, France, has cabled the State
Department that he has been informed
by a French officer that a part of a
torpedo has been found in the hull of
the channel steamer Sussex.
Joseph Reinach. the famous French
historian, declares that the new sub
marine attacks we're directed against
the Stars and Stripes and accuses
President Wilson of dilitary tactics.
