Many who were not aware of the fact that the famous actress, Fpnny Daven port, or Mrs. Melbourn McDowell, as her real name was, she having married her leading roan, McDowell, in 1S8!, had been, suffering for some months with heart trouble, were grieved to learn of death through dispatcheH yesterday. She died at Duxbury, Massachusetts, Monday evening. Miss Davenport has played in every important city of the United States, in such roles aa La Tosca, Gismonda and Cleopatra, with her husband as her opposite. Her plays were all produced on a splendid and lavish scale, and wi'.h such success that the celebrated actress amassed a fortune in the practice of her art, being classed among the few really wealthy stage celebrities of the country. Many Dalles people were fortunate in hearing her on her last engagement in Portland two years ago when she played La Tosca and Gismonda. Fanny Davenport was bom in London, England, April 10, 1850. A mere child she appeared in "Metamora" at the Athenaem, in Boston, and that was the beginning of a career that has covered a period of more than thirty-five years. leatness Cannot De Cared by local applications, as thev cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear, There ia only one way to euro deafness, and that is bv constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed con dition of the mucous lining of the Eus tachian Tube. When this tube is in flamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is en tirely 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 for ever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an in flamed condition of the mucous sur faces.
