Fourteen New Passenger Engines Ordered. Will Pull Heavy Trains at High Rate Speed. Locomotives 'of Atlantic Skilled Workmen. Type- The Erie railroad is making quite a considerable addition to Its motive power, says the Leader. Within the last six weeks it has ordered 14 new passenger engines of the Atlantic type. jNow the information comes from Meadville that it has started to build nine other engines in its own shops there. The specifications are not given on which these are to be constructed, but it is understood that they aro designed for passenger bus iness. While the information was that these engines would be built from the ground up, the Erie officials say that they are simply being re built. It is all one and the same thing. There mav be a few bolts or a few pieces that once belonged to an other engine, but the remainder of them will be entirely new, and over a pattern that has not been built be fore. This is one of the peculiarities of the motive power department of the Erie. It will start in to rebuild an engine, and before the work is done there may not be an old piece in it, still, for some reason or other, it is classed a rebuild. However that may be, the engines are coming, and they are said to be botli fast and powerful. They will be also of the Atlantic type, and will be of such a character that they will be able to pull the heaviest trains over the line at a rate of speed high er than any engines of recent build have been able to make. The new era on which the Erie is just now en tering demands that it shall have tho most modern equipment, and it is preparing itself for the fight. There are conflicting rumors and evidences of the intention of the Erie with re gard to the policy of the system. The story has been going that the road was very shortly to be lifted from the differential class, but now It is leading the fight to maintain the differential privilege. Adding to the new engines that have just been ordered from its own shops, the Erie is getting the first install ments of the Atlantic typeas ordered from tho locomotive works. The or der was for 14, and the information is that a few of tlieho have been turned out from the shops, and are now being broken in on freight trains in the east. It is not expected that they will reach the Ohio divis ion for several weeks, but they will be here as soon as they have been 'limbered up." It is also the inten tion to have all of these sent hero at one time and to put them on tho new fast schedule that has been promised. It is expected that by the time all of these engines are out of the shop the road will bo a good piece toward completing the track improvements that have been planned, and for which the surveys are made. now being The fact that tho Erie is building modern engines in its own shops speaks volumes for the efficiency of its plants. The officials say that they have as skilled workmen in their employ as can be found in the best locomotive works in the coun try, and that they have as good tools and as good machinery as any of the other plants. That they do not do all of their own building is attributed to tho fact that they do not keep employed, steadily enough, men k do all tho work of this kind that the road needs. No Evidence of Poison. At the inquest in the Herman Swi gart case Wednesday, no evidence was introduced to show that death was caused by poisoning. C. M. B. A. Picnic.

Is at Last Accomplished by a New and Modern Method of Treatment Medicated Dry Air Inhalation Penetrates the Most Inner Recesses of the Ear, Soothing:, Healing and Curing- the Diseased Conditions. THE CAUSES AND CURE OF DEAFNESS. It is from the throat that the cita del of the hearing is taken. rue mucous memorane lining oi the throat lines also the passages to tne ears tne .ustacman tuoes. When disease sets np in the throat it is likely to extend into the Eu stachian tubes. Tho same condition that cnuses swelling or intlnmntion, or the se cretion of thick and heavy mucus in the throat, causes the same effect in the ear tubes. Pharyngitis, Laryngitis, Rhinitis, Tonsilitis, Bronchitis nud all the many diseases affecting the mem brane of the throat may result in deafness. Scarlet fever, diphtheria, typhoid fever, produce inflammation of the throat, which often extends to the ear tubes and causes deafness. Measles, chickenpox and smallpox and other zymotic diseases, produc ing in the same manner inflamma tion of the throat, may result in deafness. Any disease affecting the throat may produce deafness. More than 90 per cent of the cases of deafness are the direct result of diseases af fecting the throat. Curing disease in the throat will not relieve deafness that has re sulted from the disease. It is necessary to use an entirely different treatment; one that will reach the 6eat of the inflammation in the ear tubes themselves. Head noises either indicate a con dition of impaired hearing or that the hearing is going to fail. " Whenever the treatment has gain ed an influence over head noises it is a certain sign that restoration of hearing will soon take place. Nearly every case of deafness caused by disease in the Eustachian tubes can be cured by the Ramsey PERSONALS. The Frymann family reunion will be held in Bath tp. Thursday. Miss Qrayce M.

There are two ways of freeing a gas pipe choked with frozen earth. One is to run an iron rod through it. This makes a small channel and al lows a diminished quantity of gas to flow through. The other is to pass the vaporotal cohol into the pipe. asa&v., nmtmn The vapor strikes the frozen earth softens and melts first one bit and then another, until the whole frozen mass crumbles by decrees into a fine powder and the pipe is free again. When force is used to free a frozen pipe a damaged pipe is the result. Where an alconol vapor is used to free a pipe no damage is done. It is the same with Deafness. Where force Is used to open the closed ear channels, damage is done. Where proper treatment is used no harm results.

READ DEMOCRAT LINERS drum be free and open, and second, that the Eustachian tube leading from the throat to the inner side of the ear drum, be open and healthy. Now, nearly all cases of ringing noises are due to some interference with this tube, the Eustachian tube, which leads from the throat to the inner side of the ear drum, and anv stoppage or closing up, or any swell ing or disease of any sort that re sults in partial or complete closing of this tube will cause ringing noises and deafness. DEAFNESS CURED. For many years I have been af flicted with bronchitis and nasal catarrh. The latter, which finally went to my ear, and causing me much pain, left me deaf. Becoming alarmed over my condition I sought medical aid. A friend advised me to try Br. Ramsey, catarrh specialist, of this city. I did so, and after taking his treatment for two ' months, my hearing was completely restored and the catarrh and bron chitis much relieved. I am confi dent that I should have been perma nently cured of both maladies had I continued treatment. I can heartily recommend Br. Ramsey to all suf ferers of this dreaded disease. T. C.
