Extreme bitterness between the Bar ber and Lauer factions characterized the proceedings of the Carbon county Democratic convention at Mauch Chunk on Monday, tho sides being equal in strength, and a split resulted in the nomination of two tickets. The main light was for the congressional indorse ment of tho county, Laird 11. Barbor, of Mauch Chunk, and John E. Lauer, of Lansford, boing the candidates. By the time that the convention met noses had been counted and it was found that each side had 37,% votes.

Deafness Cannot be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach tho diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to euro deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed con dition of the mucous lining of the eustachian tube. When tliis tnbe gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it isentire ly closed deafness is tho result, and un less tho inHamation can bo taken out and this tube restored to its normal con dition, hearing will bo destroyed for ever; nine cases out of ten are caused by outarruh, which is nothing but an in 11amed condition of the mucuus surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Bend for cirrulars, free. F. J, CIIENEY & CO., Toledo, O.

While being lowered in Greenough shaft, Shamokin, Monday night Peter Doyle's right hand was entangled in the carriage machinery. The bucket con taining a number of his friends contin ued downwatd while he dangled in space. His hand had become so tightly wedged in tho rests that it was impossi ble for him to fall.

Bears the H" Kind You Hate Always Bought T" 7 COUNTY TICKET NAMED STRONG COMBINATION PLACED IN THE FIELD THIS YEAR. Stanley Devenport for Congress, Joe Mc- Glnty for Sheriff, Shiffer for Controller and Gabriel for Recorder—Ticket Pleases All Adherents of the Tarty. The Democratic county convention at Wilkesbarre on Tuesday was an enthusi astic affair. The large Armory build ing was crowded, and the following ticket, when nominated, was received with every indication of pleasure from the mulitude present: For congress, Stanley Devenport, Plymouth; sheriff. Joseph McGlnty, Wilkesbarre; control ler, George Shiffer, Plains; recorder, Louis Gabriel, Nanticoke; coroner, I)r. J. A. Singer, Forty Fort; surveyor, A. Brooks Celiax, llazleton. Jaines P. Gorman, of Hazleton, was chairman of the convention. The first office filled was that of congressman. Stanloy W. Davenport was named by John T. Lenahan. Rush Troscott was also a candidate, but withdrew during the balloting. For sheriff Joseph McGinty easily beat Dolph Glennon, of Pittston, by a Vote of 103% to 114%. Louis Gabriel, tho well-known Pole of Nanticoke, was nominated for recorder by acclamation, his townsman. Edwin Wornet, withdrawing during tho ballot ing. For controller there were four candi dates. One ballot sufficed, the vote standing: George Shiffer, Plains, 125; Edward Barret, Pittston, 38; William Mullally, Wilkesbarre, 28; J. K. P. Fcn ncr, Ashlov, 13. After this nomination many of tho delegates left to catch tho lower end trains. For coroner there were two candidates. Tho vote was: Dr. J. A. Singer, Forty Fort, GO; Dr. W. Smytho, Wilkesbarre, 4G. A. Brooks Celiax, of Hazleton, was tho unanimous choice of the convention for surveyor. The platform adopted endorses the state platform, favors municipal owner ship of water and light plants and free bridges, favors a reduction in the salar ies of public officials, denounces present tax laws, thanks the soldiers and sailors of tho nation for their valiant work and condemns the official mismanagement which has caused them hardships, pleads for the election of honest legisla tors, severely denounces Quay and Quay ism and calls for the prosecution of those who are ruining the anthracite coal trade. Nearly ali tho nominees are men with whom the voters are already acquainted. Mr. Davenport served ono term as regis ter of wills and is looked upon as a man who is able and competent from every point of view to represent this district in congress. Ho is not identified to any extent with any faction of tho party, and can therefore command the votes of all its members. Mr. McGinty is so well known to the. people of the lower end, having resided In the Fourth district for many years, that but little need be said of him. As recordor he filled the office with credit, and when he stepped from public life he took with him that with which few office-holders can retain—the esteem of every citizen who ever did business with him. He was one of the most obliging officers who over sat in Wilkesbarre courthouse, and his strength on election day will surprise the people again, as in his past contests. Louis Gabriel, the nominee for re corder, is a popular Pole of Nanticoke. The recognition of the so-called foreign elemont by the Democracy, it is pre dicted, will bring to the party the almost unanimous support of this class, and his friends look upon his election as an as sured fact. Asldo from his nationality and its bearing upon the contest, Mr. Gabriel is fitted in every way for the office. Goorgo Shi (Tor, of Plains, will make an able successor to Czar Lloyd as con troller. Ho Is one of the most popular men in the upper end of the county, and will poll a heavy Republican vote. The nominees for coronor and surveyor are also competent to fill the offices to which they aspire, and the ticket as a whole looks like a winner. Every locality and every element of the party has received recognition. The work of electing the nominees is no easy task, but the candidates are workers them selves and will win if givon the support they deserve. CASTOR IA For Infanta and Children.
