His Illness. The statesman's illness began , with a slight attack of apoplexy in Philadelphia last October, and kept jr him from reaching his seat at the opening of congress last December, j Only once since that had he appeared before an audience and that was for an informal talk in January. The end was almost without a struggle. Indeed the family present could not notice the slight struggle which was noticed by Dr. Waugh. Dissolution was very rapid for when the final and complete failure v of heart action began it progressed rapidly and in five minutes the patient was dead. Those present at the end were: Mrs. Daniel and daughter, Mrs. Har3* >. per, and son, Arther M. Daniel, Fred Harper, Mrs. S. W. Hallsey, the only sister of the deceased, and her sons, State Senator D.

" ;V ' , No change was noted until nearly noon. He had slept fairly well during the past night The family was fully aware of his condition. At no time had there been any hope of his recovery. Late in February Maj. Daniel accompanied by his nepnew and secre* tary, Warwick Daniel, went to Florida in the hope that mild temperature there would be of great benefit to him. No special point was named S as the destination, but he expected to visit a number of places. At Daytona he was stricken with paralysis ' on March 8. First, his son and Fred . y Harper went to Daytona, taking Dr. E. A. Waugh with them, and on March 15 Mrs. Daniel and her daughV ter, Mrs. Fred Harper, went to Daytona, remaining there with Maj. L Daniel until the morning of April the 23, when the start was made for Lynchburg. This trip was made over ; * the Florida East Coast and the Southern railways in the private car of President Finley of the Southern railway. Upon his arrival here he was taken to the sanitarium, where he was under the care of Dr. Waugh constantly until his death. > . t m Cotton Crop Deteriorates. 1 Washington, July 1.?The condition of the cotton crop was 80.7 per cent, of a normal on June 25, as com pared with 82 per cent, on May 26, 3910; 74.6 on June 25, 1909; 81.2 on June 25, 1908, and 79.5 June 26, j ten years average.

Ai Deafness Cannot be Cured sv by local applications, as they cannot ta reach the diseased portion of the ear. t0 There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional K remedies. Deafness is caused by an ct inflamed condition of the mucous lln- tb ing of the eustachian tube.

This is an increase of 283,529 over the number of immigrant aliens admitted last year. W) The non-immigrant aliens admit- Si ted that is, those coming to the al United States temporarily, only P1 reached 145,421, which is a falling off of 47,028, while the total num- UI ber of all persons debarred during su the year was 24,000. Last year only ve 11,000 were debarred. cr The remarkable increase in num- cb ber of those debarred is looked upon from different standpoints among immigrant officials.
