-MEXICO CITY MAY " SOON BE UNDER SEIZE CONSTITUTIONALISTS MAKING RAPID ADVANCE TOWARD I ^ THE MEXICAN CITY. vTu AND CAM ARE HAVING DIFFERENCE -V Whether Mediation Should Finally Succeed or Not, Carranza and Villi* Will No Doubt Settle Accounts With Iluerta Before Long* [The trend of the news last week in relation to the war in Mexico was to i I r tne effect that the constitutionalists forces were more and more penning- I uerta up in Mexico City, and that Villa was making a more rapid and determined advance upon the Mexican capital. All of the negotiations between representatives of the two factions failed of success. It appears that if mediation will de4rluy its effects just a short time longc r that Carranza and Villa will forever settle the problem in so far as Huerta is concerned. A dispatch dated last Saturday stated : Vindication of the conduct of Gen. Villa, his speedy return to tin front City, with Gen. Felipe Angeles as -wriief of artilllery, and clear definition of Villa's attitude toward the first chief of the Constitutionalists, Gen. Carranza. are reported to be cardinal point of a prominent statement by representatives of Carranza and Villa who have been parties to the internal Constitutionalists relations conferJjfore. The statement will he based upon a protocol covering the transactions of the conferees signed on adjoinment. The Carranza delegates immediately upon signing the protocol departed for Saltillo. ^ It is unofficially known that be^fcuse either Carranza nor Villla was pleased with the trend of some of the | (lis/'liaoiAno i 1 ?ucuvcni me representatives of the factions the conference was prolonged after business was. finished. Just what subjects displeased the first and second chiefs of the Constitutionalists may be made known in a statement since it was officially & announced that "these difficulties were removed to the entire satisfaction of ! both parties. In a briof announcement the conferees made known that Villa would \ resume his advance on the capital ! H^ithout further loss of time, although ft was expected it would be several days oefore his division would be started southward and that Gen. ; | Angeles would assume command of the artillery of Villa's army. It was intimated that the provisioning of Villa's forces figured largely in the i Sflscussion at the conference. On last Sunday dispatches from Vera Cruz were to the effect that Huerta would resign, having appointed Francisco Carbajal as minister of foreign affairs, it was stated on reli- j able authority that Huerta would re- ' feign his rule in Mexico and turn the } reins over to his new minister. This ! it was stated would be sure to bring about peace before long in this war 1 devasted country. S Events in Mexico are shaping (themselves for a termination of the j civil strife that has kept that country J? a turmoil and threatened at one time to provoke war with the United i States. Gen. Huerta, against whom t the constitutionalists have waged inj cessant warfare since the overthrow of Madero 18 months ago, has given f un the struggle at last. Weakened by the failure of the United States [ .J&0 recognize his governmnt and cut off f 'om financial support in Europe I he r ;alizes the big constitutionalist fight argumented daily as it progresses southward, is at the threshold of the Mexican capital. Fearful that an invading army may commit excesses which would endanger the lives of an ^ innocent population and despoil property, persons influential with the man who has dictated affairs in Mexico City at his own whim have persuaded him to abandon his hopeless position. Comprehensive messages to Washington diplomats from legations and consulates in Mexico City thus de- 1 ^scribed the situation. - The action of the County Executive < \ Committee last week in taking the of- < , fice of Magistrate out of the primary < i created some stir for a while and the 1 objections raised to this plan were I ^/ttany, not only on the part of those 1 wishing to stand for election but on I , the part of the people themselves who seem to want the privilege of se- i fc lecting the men who are to fill the offic V The cooler weather for the latter : part of last week wes enjoyed by the " people who are staying at home. PREVENTION NOT CURE, Here Lies the Seer?! of the Best Way to Manage Typhoid Fever. This is the season of the year when every precaution must be taken to prevent typhoid fever. Prevention is far better than cure. To the end that the people might be informed as to the best rules to follow to avoid this dread disease, the following rules been printed and distributed by the State health officers. 1. Keep away from all known cases or suspected cases of typhoid. 2. Wash hands thoroughly before meals. Do not use "n/iler towels." 8. Use drinking water only from sources known to be pure, or, if this is not possible, use water that has been purified by municipal Alteration or by hypochlorite treatment or by boiling in the household. 4. Avoid bathing in polluted water. r* I Ten ?\naf Ain??f?Ail am I- ? i -1 * - w. v nt (JUOtClll IM'U Ul UUilt'(l) 111" stead of raw milk. 6.

There's No Sense in Taking Calomel. Dodson's Liver Tone will fix up your safely and won't "knock you out" a day. A man feels very little like working and a child don't want to go to school when bilious or con stipated. If you try calomel to cure you, the chances arc that you will be so weakened by its after effects that you will be laid up for two or three days more. So we say "Don't take Calomel." You can get a perfect remedy to take the place of calomel at Conway Drug Co., that is guaranteed to relieve constipation and liven up the liver just as quickly as calomel, but without any of the bad after-effects of calomel. The name of this medicine is Dodson's Liver Tone. It is a pleasant tasting vegetable tonic that mildly stimulates the liver and causes it to work just right without any danger of salvation. If it doesn't fully satisfy you, you may have your money back from the store where you bought Dodson's.?adv.
