Consolidation of Central American States
Has Not Prevented Revolutions.


Has Not Prevented Revolutions.
NEW YORK, Nov. 16.-A cable dispatch
received in this city from Libertad,
Nicaragua, states that a revolution has
broken out in Salvador.
1t is only fortnight since Salvador,
Honduras and Nicaragua joined their
destinies and formed the United States
of Central America. Merchants and
commercial men in this city who are
familiar with affairs in Central America,
however, were not surprised when in
formed that revolution in Salvador
was reported to have broken out. While
the federation of the three countries
was approved and carried out by, the
commissioners appointed by the thre'
countries to draw up a constitution, the
people of Salvador have not been enthu-
Eiastic over the new scheme, particularly
as it appears the financial burdens OF
maintaining the new state will fall most
heavily upon them, owing to their hav-
ing denser population than either OF
the other parties to the consolidation.

Thus writes Henderson Dale, Druggist,
of Carmi, ILL.,, to the Bradfeld Regulator
Company, of Atlanta, Ca, the proprie-
tors and manufacturers of "Mother's
Friend" This successful remedy is not
one of the many internal medicines adj
vertised to do unreasonable things, but
scientifically prepared liniment especially
effective in adding strength and elasticity
to those parts of woman's organism which
bear the severest strains of childbirth.
The liniment may be used at any and
all times during pregnancy up to the
very hour of confinement. The earlier it
is begun, and the longer used, the more
perfect will be the result, but it has been
used during the last month only with
great benefit and success.
It not only shortens labor and lessons
the pain attending it, but greatly dimin-
ishes the danger to life of. both mother
and child, and leaves the mother in con-
dition more favorable to speedy recovery.

AMERICAN GIRLS ALL RIGHT
Queen Approves Their Importation as
Wives of British Mobiles.


Wives of British Mobiles.
LONDON, Nov. 14.-It appears that her
majesty recently expressed her views on
the marriages of members of the Eng
lish aristocracy with American girls.
She confessed that she at first viewed
these marriages with some anxiety, but
added her fears have since been COM
pletely allayed and the queen now thinks
that American girls, from the breadth
of their education, INDEPENDENCE and
rapid changing life, are better able to
adapt themselves to new environment
than the more stereotyped English girls.
The queen also thinks it unfair to insin-
uate that mercenary motives are the
frequent causes of the marriages of i'm
poverished mobiles to American heiresses.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.-General
Breckenridge continued his testimony

and the transportation of troops to that
island. He had, he said, gone to Cuba

two scows secured on behalf of the army

Senator Turpie Mt bethany.

A very quiet day was spent at Bethany
Park yesterday. The services at the taber-
nacle were brief and the attendance was
small One of the pleasant features of the
day was a lecture on "A Ramble Among
Words" by John E. Wiley, of Anderson.
In the course of his remarks he said:
words were like goods, which, on the out
side, are rough and uninteresting, yet split
them open and the cavity within holds
things rich and rare, sparkling with jewels
bright and beauteous, rejecting a thousand
crystallizations. So with the words we use;
they seem trite and homely, yet split them
open and they reveal deep historic lore and
rich old legends" Mr.. Wiley showed that
sarcasm often lurked in words, and in
stanced the word "dowdy,' which is, in the
original, French for fool or a smpIeton -
Webster, in his old dictionary defined
doWdy as male of the human species;
one who dresses himself up doll and VINO
carries his character on his back" The
lecture was full of wit, and Mr.. Wiley kept
the audience in a continuous good humor.
In the afternoon Senator Turpie read from
his manuscript the history of the transia-
ton of the Bible, from the movement that
inaugurated the King James version, and
which resulted in the present translation.
He compared the Hampton court assembly
of '63 to Bethany Assembly inasmuch as
they were instructed to give the Bible
without note or comment, to the people. He

surrounding towns. Every seat in the tab

with the success of the entertainment. To-
day is Assembly day, and il being the last
sunday, preparations have been made for

Unusual Circumstance.

During one of the races yesterday after
noon, when The slight shower began, Wal
lace Sherwood went over to the north
bleachers and called out: Everybody get
into the grand stand" Immediately the
crowd arose and started a stampede for
the grand stand Patrolmen Hart and
Montgomery, who had orders from Sergeant
Lowe to keep the people off the track dur
ing the races, and who had not heard Mr..
Sherwoods invitation, lunged out before the
crowd and attempted to keep it off the
track. The crowd was headed directly across
the track to the grand stand. Patrolman
Hart, in his efforts to force back the crowd,
stepped too far down on the track and one
of the riders, George Shofield, struck him.
Hart was knocked down and the rider was
thrown off his wheel. His head struck the
butt end of Harris revolver, which was in
his pocket, and the handle bar of his wheel
struck in the pit of his stomach. The rider
was carried off the track. but his injuries
are not serious. The patrolman was in no
wise to blame He had orders from his SUI

track. and in the excitement of pushing
back the crowd Hart got in the way of the
