REBEL DELEGATE
COOLLY RECEIVED
CARRANZA'S REPRESENTATIVE
TOLD MEDIATORS WERE *
BUSY AND MUST WAIT.
| HAD NOTE FROM CARRANZA
Upon Demand of United States Note
Was Received at Mediaton Con¬
ference—No Answer Given.
Niagara Falls, Ont.—Consideration
of an agreement between the Huerta
government and the United States was
interrupted temporarily when Juan F.
Urquidi, a representative of General
Carranza, laid before the South Amer¬
ican envoys a note expressing surprise
that the mediation negotiations were
continuing with the Constitutionalists
unrepresented. After a long debate
the mediators decided not to permit
Urqiudi to present the communication.
Then/ after a conference with the
American delegates the mediators ad¬
mitted the Carranza emissary. The
following statement was issued by the
envoys: “The mediators have received
a communication from a representa¬
tive of General Carranza, the tenor of
which differs entirely from the ver¬
sion contained in a news dispatch
from Durango and does not disturb the
course of tiie negotiations.” Whether
answer will be made to General Car¬
ranza or his representative in Wash¬
ington is not known outside of the dip¬
lomatic tribunal. The mediators re¬
fused to answer questions on the sub¬
ject. Attaches, however, reiterated
that the proceedings could be reopen¬
ed with a Constitutionalist present
only if General Carranza agreed to a
suspension of hostilities.
Mediators Were Busy.
Mr. Urquidi met with considerable
embarrassment in delivering his mes¬
sage. When he sent his card to the
mediation chamber word came back
that the mediators were busy. He wait¬
ed an hour and then sent up a note
saying he did not come to discuss is¬
sues but merely to deliver a message.
The mediators then received him and
questioned him about the contents of
the note. He was asked particiularly
if it was as represented in a news dis¬
patch from Durango, to which he re¬
plied that the substance was the same,
but the phraseology different. The
mediators doubted the propriety of
receiving Urquidi and finally told him
to return. The mediators conferred
among themselves and the word was
passed around generally that the com¬
munication would not be accepted.
Finally the American delegates came
over to the Canadian side. They talk¬
ed for more than an hour, then Urquidi
was summoned. Minister Naon accept¬
ed the note on behalf of the envoys
Must Receive Rebels’ Note
Washington. — Mexican mediation
was discussed at the cabinet meeting
and the administration took a positive
position that the communication for¬
warded to the mediators at Niaga Falls
by General Carranza, chief of the Con¬
stitutionalist forces, should be receiv¬
ed. President Wilson announced to
the cabinet that General Carranza lias
addressed a note to the mediation con¬
ference seeking representation. De¬
tails of the Carranza message were
not discussed, but it later was declar¬
ed the administration took the view
that the Constitutionalist chief should
not be ignored.
Probe of C., H. & D. Deal.
Washington.—-Inquiry into the acqui¬
sition of the Cincinnati, Hamilton and
Dayton, Ohio, railroad, with reference
to possible bearing of this transaction
on the latter’s road's application with
other Eastern lines for an increase in
freight rates, began before the inter¬
state commerce commission. Daniel
Willard, president of the Baltimore
and Ohio, was on the stand all day.
At the conclusion of the session Chair¬
man Harlan announced the hearing
would be resumed at a date to be
made public later. Mr. Willard said
the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton
had proved a heavy burden, but in¬
sisted that the Baltimore and Ohio
had been fully justified in all advanc¬
es made because of the subsidiary.
His testimony showed that since the
purchase in 1909 and up to May 27,
1914, the Baltimore and Ohio had
made cash advances to the Cincinnati,
Hamilton and Dayton of $21,989,405.
Ban on Sunday Sport.
Chicago.—The plea that the ban
against uncommercialized games and
sports on Sunday be lifted fell on deaf
ears when the general assembly of the
Presbyterian church (north) adopted
the report of the committee on Sab¬
bath observance which disapproved of
all secular uses of Sunday. The rev
port. which also disapproved of all
unnecessary travel and Sunday excur¬
sions, was adopted after a spirited de¬
bate.
| Rivers and Harbors Bill.
Washington.—Work on the rivers
and harbors bill was completed by the
senate commerce committee and the
measure will be reported next week,
carrying appropriations aggregating
$53,500,000.
World's Largest Telescope.
Quincy, Mass.—Castings were start¬
ed for a 100-inch reflecting telescope,
the largest in the world, to be install¬
ed at the Mount Wilson observatory
at Pasadena, Cal. The mirror was suc¬
cessfully cast in France
Must Restore Funds.
San Francisco.—The California rail¬
road eommissien issued an order that
the directors of the United Railroads
of San Francisco restore to the com¬
pany’s funds $1,096,000 which the
commission charges Patrick Calhoun,
former president of the United Rail¬
ways and a former resident of Atlanta,
diverted to his personal use.
Inventor of Rifle Dead.
Suttgart.—Peter Paul von Mauser,
inventor of the rifle bearing his name,
died, aged 76.
THE ELLIJAY TIMES, ELLUAY, GEORGIA.
Miss Madeline Edison, daughter of the famous inventor, and John Sloane,
to whom she will be married on June 17 at the beautiful home of her father
in Llewellyn Park, N. J. Mr. Sloane is a son of Dr. and Mrs. T. O’Connor
Sloane of West Orange and conducts an aviation school at Bound Brook,
N. J.
NO HITCH SO FAR BETWEEN THE
THREE FACTIONS REPRE
SENTED AT NIAGARA.
Discussions of Conference Are Kept
Secret by Request of Huerta’s
Agents.
Niagara Falls, Ontario.—Smooth
progress toward an agreement on all
phases of the Mexican problem is be¬
ing made by the mediators and the
American and Mexican delegates.
This was stated with emphasis by
the mediators after a day of confer¬
ences, principally with the Mexican
delegates. The three South American
diplomats made it plain that, while
every aspect of the Mexican situation,
both internal and international, had
been laid before the delegates, no for¬
mal basis had been reached for the
tratment in any specified order of the
issues involved, nor has the relative
importance of the main issues been
defined. The discussion thus far lias
been general. The mediators have
taken the position that they are es¬
sentially counsellors. They will not
suggest names for the provisional
_
presidency, nor will they recommend
any form of government. From the
Mexican delegates themselves must
originate prop-basis concerning the in¬
ternal affairs of their country, and
these suggestions will be transmitted
by the mediators to the American del¬
egates.
Officials Are Delighted,
Washington.—Satisfactory reports
from the Mexican mediation confer¬
ence at Niagara Falls increased the
hopes of the Washington government
that international warfare can be
averted and ultimate peace brought to
Mexico. The interchanges between
American commissioners and the pres¬
ident were not disclosed, but there
was a feeling of buoyancy at the
white house and state department de¬
spite disquieting rumors.
March on Mexico City.
San Antonio, Texas.—The landing of
about three thousand Constitutional¬
ists on the coast of the Mexican state
of Vera Cruz is the beginning of a
triple movement against Mexico City,
according to Albert Carillo, Constitu¬
tionalist consul here, who said he had
authoritative, information to that ef¬
fect. The Vera Cruz force included
3,000 men, headed by Gen. Candido
Aguilar, taken from the command
with which Gen. Pablo Conzales con¬
ducted the successful siege of Tam¬
pico. Carrillo said Aguilar's men
would proceed eastward to the inte¬
rior, while General Villa moved from
Torreon and Zapata’s insurgents came
from the west. According to the con¬
sul's information Aguilar expected to
attack Gen. Garcia Pena’s army
Morse Will Not Testify.
Washington.—According to present
plans of the interstate commerce com¬
mission, it is said to be unlikely that
Charles W. Morse will testify in the
investigation into the New Haven rail¬
road’s financial affairs. Mr. Morse had
suggested that he be afforded the op¬
portunity. The commission, however,
is said to feel that Mr. Morse could
throw no light on the subject of the in¬
vestigation. His name was brought
into the testimnoy by Charles S. Mei
len, who told of a steamship deal that
was never consummated.
Morgan Denies Testimony.
New York.—J. P. Morgan, Jr., char¬
acterized as untrue the testimony of
Charles S. Mellen, former head of the
New York, New Haven and Hartford
railroad, before the interstate com¬
merce commission in Washington that
J. Pierpont Morgan concealed from
Mr. Mellen facts regarding the New
Haven road which Mr. Mellen should
have known. Mr. Morgan offered to
produce before any proper tribunal at
any time the records of J. P. Morgan
& Co. and the personal records of his
father.
England Not Represented.
London.—The British government,
acting contrary to the hopes held out
by Premier Asquith to a recent depu¬
tation, finaly decided not to partici
pate in the Panama-Pacific exposition
at San Francisco.
Home Rule Bill Passes.
London.—By a vote of 351 to 274—
a majority of 77—the house of com¬
mons passed the home rule bill. The
end of the hard-fought struggle came
quite suddenly.
DECLARES HE DISCOVERED A
STREAM IN BRAZIL 1,000
MILES LONG.
Appears Before National Geographical
Society in Washington—Heartily
Received.
Washington.—Proclaimed before a
great audience of scientists from many
cities as the “discoverer of a river in
South America 1,000 miles long,” Colo¬
nel Theodore Roosevelt assured the
National Geographic Society that he
had put this river on the map and
challenged all the cartographers in
the world to disprove his achievement.
The colonel had appeared before a
Washington audience on a previous
occasion as an explorer, but never as
a discoverer and he was cheered to
the echo as he declared the carto¬
graphers and geographers of all na¬
tions were wrong in their maps of the
wilds of Brazil, wherein he found and
traced the “Duvlda river,” or, as now
more familiarly known, the “River of
Doubt.” Scientists, the colonel de¬
clared, had attempted to dispute his
discovery. Tracing on a blackboard
with a pieces>1 <|dtare<3’ chalk the river of his
finding, he emphatically: “I
say we put on the map, and I
mean what I say. No map has ever
yet shown this river. Scientists have
said we might have traversed the
river Tapajos, or the river Madeira,
but the fact is that some of our party
went down one river and some went
down the other, while we went down a
river in between them which no map
maker ever saw. I can direct any
man where to find this river, and
rivers stay put, so that the discovery
we have made may be verified.”
Zapata’s Agent in Washington.
Washington.—An agent of Gen. Emil
iano Zapata is here, and at the sugges¬
tion of Secretary Bryan has laid be¬
fore President Wilson and the state
department information intended to
controvert statements tha tZapata is
merely a bandit and that his followers
are a horde of free booters. The
statement asked that in any settle¬
ment of the Mexican problem full con¬
sideration be given to the Zapatistas
as a leading element in the Mexican
revolution. The Zapatistas assert that
they represent the revolutionary move¬
ment in the most thickly settled por¬
tion of Mexico, containing 75 per cent,
of all the population; that Zapata has
an army of about 21,000 men, and con¬
trols the states of Morelos and Guer¬
rero and parts of Puebla, Guanajuto,
Mexico and the federal district. The
agent said that Carranza and Zapata,
while not united, have the same pur¬
poses and were working in concert.
Girl Graduates Hear Vice President.
Atlanta.—Vice President Thomas R.
Marshall dug deep into the mines of
his philosophy and poured its contents
into the ears of the twenty-seven
sweet girl graduates and entire stu¬
dent body of Agues Scott college at
the Atlanta theater. “I don’t think
woman will ever be man’s equal,” he
declared, pausing to let his startling
words soak in. “She can never be.
She is essentially too far his superior.
I believe more in the intuition of a
good woman than I do in the logic
of every lawyer in the world.”
Jacob A. Riis Is Dead.
Barre, Mass.—Jacob A. Riis, author
and social worker, died at his sum¬
mer home here. Jacob August Riis
became, through his work in behalf
of the poorer people in New York,
“the most powerful, most useful citi¬
zen,” of the metoropolis, according to
a tribute once paid to him by Theo¬
dore Roosevelt, his intimate friend.
As an almost penniless immigrant he
obtained knowledge of the slums at
first hand and found conditions there
so repellant that he consecrated his
whole life to the poor.
Mexican Cabinet Member in U. S.
| Galveston, Tefas.—Dr. Aureliano
Urrutia, formerly minister of the in¬
terior in the cabinet of Provisional
j President Huerta, capital, and arrived who fled here from
the Mexican on
board the United States naval trans¬
port Hancock. Doctor Urrutia was
accompanied by his family. The for¬
mer cabinet member was compelled to
i remain on board under the surveil
| lance of health officers until the usual by
six days of observation required
I quarantine regulations shall have
j passed.

Language Not Likely to Last.
Mistral, the great Provencal poet,
whose death was announced lately,
has been likened to Robert Burns for
the work he did. But Burns’ task
was child's play compared with Mis¬
tral's. The Scottish poet found his
language fully grown and completely
alive; Mistral had to create his means
of expression. Provencal had lost ev¬
ery resemblance to a literary tongue,
and the new poet-patriot had to mold
it afresh, to recreate and to build un
on the ruins left by the vineyard and
the farm. “Our Provencal," said Mis¬
tral, “was a cou-ntry lass ragged and
wild.” She is now a wonderfully beau¬
tiful creature; but it is doubtful
whether all the genius of Mistral can
keep her alive. The educational re¬
former in France does not like such
irregular beauty.
HER MOTHER-IN-LAW
Proved a Wise, Good Friend.
A young woman out in la. found a
wise, good friend in her mother-in-law,
jokes notwithstanding. She writes:
“I was greatly troubled with my
stomach, complexion was blotchy and
yellow. After meals I often suffered
sharp pains and would have to lie
down. My mother often told me it
was the coffee I drank at meals. But
when I’d quit coffee I’d have a severe
headache.
“While visiting my mother-in-law I
remarked that she always made such
good coffee, and asked her to tell me
how. She laughed and told me it was
easy to make good ‘coffee’ when you
use Postum.
“I began to use Postum as soon as I
got home, and now we have the same
good ‘coffee’ (Postum) every day, and
I have no more trouble. Indigestion
is a thing of the past, and my com¬
plexion has cleared up beautifully.
“My grandmother suffered a great
deal with her stomach. Her doctor
told her to leave off coffee. She then
took tea but that was just as bad.
“She finally was induced to try Post¬
um which she has used for over a
year. She traveled during the winter
over the greater part of Iowa, visiting,
something she had not been able to
do for years. She says she owes her
present good health to Postum.”
Name given by Postum Co., Battle
Creek, Mich. Read “The Road to Weli
ville,” in pkgs.
Postum now comes in two forms;
Regular Postum —must be well
boiled. 15c and 25c packages.
Instant Postum —is a soluble pow¬
der. A teaspoonful dissolves quickly
in a cup of hot water and, with cream
and sugar, makes a delicious beverage
instantly. 30c and 50c tins.
The cost per cup of both kinds is
about the same.

GEORGIA STATE NEWS.
Augusta.—Six bags of fertilizer
burned up a farm wagon and a pair
of mules on the road near Berckmans’
place. John Gardenheidt, a negro farm¬
hand in Columbia county, came to the
city for fertilizer, and among the stuff
he had on the two-mule wagon were
six sacks of nitrate of soda, loaded
on the back of the wagon. It was
unprotected from the elements, and
the action of the sun on the soda set
up spontaneous combustion.
Atlanta.—Isaac Sclioen, one of the
principal owners of the buildings
burned by the fire which destroyed the
National stock yards, stated that the
several owners were arranging to re¬
build immediately. “Just as soon as
the debris can be cleared away we
will begin work on rebuilding,” said
Mr. Sclioen. “The owners are plan
plug to erect the most modern stables
known. Practicaly everything was
covered by insurance.” The fire which
destroyed several stables of the Na¬
tional stock yards, at the end of the
Marietta street car line, on Brady ave¬
nue, did damage estimated at $200,
000. A tragic feature of the big fire
was the roasting alive of fifty-nine
horses and mules, which were stabled
in the Harper & Weathers commis¬
sion stables, where the fire originated,
supposedly, from a spark from a pass¬
ing engine on the railroad tracks near¬
by. Forty head of cattle in the Bet¬
tis Packing company were also caught
in their stalls by the quickly spread¬
ing fire, and burned alive.
Augusta.—Few folk would hardly
deem it necessary to or even think of
recording a deed to a piece of property
after they had been in possession of
the property for a period of 114 years.
However, that is exactly what took
place in Augusta when the deed to
the First Presbyterian church proper¬
ty of this city, which was made on
May 9, 1809, was recorded at the clerk
of the court's office several days ago.
The property of the First Presbyte¬
rian church was deeded to them by
the trustees of the Richmond Academy
and the commissioners of the city of
Augusta in the year 1809, and the deed
of the transfer, now yellow with age,
hangs in the frame on the walls of
the Sunday school building. Mr. Phil¬
ip North, as his many friends know,
when he is not digging into some¬
thing new, is delving back into the
past, and it was while engaged in the
latter stunt that tlie fact occurred to
him that the deed of the church prop
ery •tiad never been recorded. Where¬
upon he procured the ancient doeu
ntent, carried it to the clerk of the
court’s office, and this is the manner
in which it now appears on the record.
Tallapoosa—The body of John Par
malee was burned to a tragic coal
when the city courthouse and prison
in which he was confined was burned.
The building was a big frame affair
and burned quickly. The man was
confined in the jail in a semi-base¬
ment and the entire building burned
down on him. Mayor Jackson and Iris
son broke open the jail door just after
the fire was discovered and found the
man dead. Desperate efforts were
made by the mayor and his son to
rescue the prisoner from his cell while
the fire was in progress.
Augusta. — As the result of
efforts inaugurated by the Merchants
and Manufacturers’ Association, more
than a month ago, and kept up contin¬
ually but very quietly since, Augusta,
Ga., secures the ninth district instruc¬
tion camp of the National Guard on
July 15tli, embracing about ten thou¬
sand troops.
Athens.—D. K. McKamy of Dalton
has been selected the valedictorian of
the class of 1914 at the University of
Georgia, the selection being made by

ed by the class to the faculty.

was suffering from
female troubles for
some time and had
almost all kinds of
aches—pains in low¬
er part of back and
in sides, and press¬
ing down pains. I
could not sleep and
had no appetite. Since I have taken
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com¬
pound the aches and pains are all gone
and I feel like a new woman. I cannot
praise your medicine too highly. "—Mrs.
Augustus Lyon, Terre Hill, Pa.
It is true that nature and a woman’s
work nas produced the grandest remedy
for woman’s ills that the world ha3
ever known. From the roots and
herbs of the field, Lydia E. Pinkham,
forty years ago, gave to womankind
a remedy for their peculiar ills which
has proved more efficacious than any
other combination of drugs ever com¬
pounded, and today Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound is recognized
from coast to coast as the standard
remedy for woman’s ills.
In the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn,
Mass., are files containing hundreds of
thousands of letters from women seek- „
ing health—many of them openly state
over their own signatures that they have
regained their health by taking Lydia
E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound;
and in some cases that it has saved them
from surgical operations.
