To Raise the Sunken Ship.
Tacoma, Wash., Jan. 15. Several
men have already come forward with
plans to raise the sunken ship Andelana.
One man proposes to attach strong lines
to her and drag her ashore by 'the aid of
several locomotives. Juat how he is
going to do it he does not explain.
Another man is going to attach a lot
of line to her, fastened to a 'collection of
barrels and barges. Just bow he is go
ing to attach the lines to the sunken
ship, 140 feet below the surface, he does
not say.
Competent shipping men say there is
no apparatus, nearer than New York or
England, that is capable of ever lifting
her off the sand on which she is lying
broadside. There is only one diving ap
paratus on this coast, they say, that will
permit even the most expert diver to
descend as deep as 100 feet.

Deafness Cannot na Cored
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way to care deafnes?
and that is by 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 bat an in
flamed condition of the mucous sur
faces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars ; free.
