Sept. 26.—To- | day “Uncle Josey” Field, of Middle- | town, reached the age of 103 year Mr. Field ie a native of Monmouth County, where he has lived nearly his whole life. He was born at the old Field homestead, in Middletown Township, September 26th, 1792. Thomas and Rebecca Field, his par- ents, had four other children, but Joseph is {the only survivor. His furm consist of not much less than 500 acres, and his wealth is estimat- ed $125,000. The thought of mar- riage did not enter his head until he had passed the three score and ten mark.

J., Sept. 26—The Democratic State convention met here to day and chose as their nomi- nee for Governor, the chancellor of Miss Euretta Headden, daughter of Jonathan Headden, and regarded as the prettiest and brightest young woman in the county. The bride was just half a century younger than the bridegroom. The ceremony was performed at Mr. Field’s house by a Methodist parson. Three children were the result of the unicn, Rebec ca, Euretta, now Mre. Joseph Whit ing, and Joseph, Jr. All are living and assisted in today’s celebration, together with Mrs. Whiting’s baby, of whom Grandpa Field is very proud. Mrs. Field died about eight years after her marriage. During the war of 1812 Mr. Field was Grafted twice, but he remained on the farm. He has always used liquor, but only in moderation. Ap- plejack was his favorite toddy until within & year or so ago, since which time has used brandy. He used to- bacco once during his long life. It was in early boyhood that he secur- ed his father’s pipe, filled it with strong tobacco and began to smoke. The first few whiffs were pleasant, but the last few made him sick and resolved never to touch tobacco again. The resolution has been faith- fully kept. He was one of the hard- est working farmers in the township even after he had reached the age of 80. Feebleness commenced when he was 85 years old, and he ceased from active labor, confining his em- ployment toa little garden work. Mr. Field is below medium height, being not more than 5 feet 5 inches tall. He is thin, his eyes are dim ming, but his voice is quite strong and his hearing good. He has voted at twenty presidential elections, his last ballot being cast for Gen. Har- rison. Deafness Cannot be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deaf- ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is causen by an inflammable condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube, When this tube gets inflamed you havea rumbling sound or imperfect hearing and when it is entirely closed deaf- ness is the result, and unless the in- flammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by eatarrh, which is nothing but an in- flamed condition of the mucous sur- faces. We will give One Hundred Dollars forany case of deafness (caus ed by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars free. F. J. Cheny, Toledo, 0. Bee*Sold by druggists, 75c. A Stolen} Watch Recovered. Sedalia, Mo., Sept. 25.—During the robbing of the Missouri, Kansas son county. The convention, as compared with that held here one week by the Republicans, when Henry W. Griggs was selected as their standard bearer, was tame, al though there was no lack of interest in the work. Chancellor McGill's nomination was a foregone conclu- sion, the fight made by the friends of his only opponent, ex congress- man Cutler, being rather feeble. Only one ballot was required, Mc- Gill receiving all but 143 of the 939 votes cast and before the vote was announced every vote had been changed to McGill so that the honor came to the latter backed by the unanimous vote of the delegates. Chancellor McGill has six years to serve in his present position, but it was said that there is every likeli hood that he will resign his office at once and conduct an active cam- paign for the Governorship.
