NEW YORK, October 2.—Liverpool’s
steadiness was remarkable today.
The great consuming market -was ac
tually firm until the explosion in this
market startled the world. Of wbat
value are figures? Today's glnnera
report showed six hundred thousand
bales less ginned to date than last
year, and the condition report of 67.7
was, on its face, bullish enqugh to
Justify an advance of at least 60
points. Planters who Bent Messrs.
Hayseed and MosBback to the legis
lature to frame measures for the bet
ter protection of the people have only
themselves to blame. Anti-option
laws have placed the market for all
time In the hands of the New York
crowd who will lose no time in milk
ing the old cow dry. There is no
buying power in the market, a fact
which (b well known to the grave dig

Deafness Cannot Be Cared
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only ono way to cure
deafness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
Inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is Inflamed 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 con
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caus
ed by Catarrh, which is nothing but
an Inflamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be pured by
Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for cir

BOAR RIPS A MULE
AND A FINE HORSE
Vicious Beast Badly Injures An
imals.
Mr. W. B. Heys came near losing
a valuable mule yesterday on his farm
near Amerlcus from the vicious at
tack of a boar penned In the pas
ture. The hog was considered harm
less, but in -a sudden fit of anger it
attacked the horse with Its razor-like
tusks and soon cut him flat to the
ground. Farm hands rushed to the
rescue and drove off the boar ere he
ripped open the prostrate horse. The
infuriated animal then attacked a fine
mule and with one sweep of his tusks
ripped a hole a foot long in its side.
The horse may^die from loss' of
blood, although prompt work saved
the' life of the mule.
