There has been running around loose in this
country, creating occasional sensations and Civ
ing undesired advertisement to his own coun-
try, young who ought to be one of the
most prominent men in his own home. Alphonso
ZeIaya, who is the son of the president of the
Republic of Nicaragua and of the heirs to
fortune of S12 100000, has been making a spec
tacIe of himself for several months. He was sent
by his father to receive military education at
the West Point Military Academy, but found the
discipline and curriculum of that institution a
little for his southern nature. He
made the acquaintance in this city of a Miss
Baker, the adopted daughter of DIR. Baker, and
a few months ago married her.
The report of his attentions to the young
lady had reached his president father in Nicara-
qua and the latter tried to have him arrested and

missioner Prouty. the commissioner,
the shippers and the representatives OF
the railroads agreed that all parties
concerned would be greatly benefited
and present conditions relieved IL a
free interchange of cars among the
railroads could be brought about. IT
Is understood that the western rail-
roads generally favor free interchange
Of freight cars and that the Eastern
railroads have refused to enter into
such an agreement. The reason for
this difference, 1t is said, Is that the
eastern roads are profiting by the
present conditions and are using many
thousands of cars belonging to the
western roads and their own equip
ment as well, causing a severe short
age to exist in the west and south.
western lines have been compelled to
issue an order that such cars as they
have left are not to leave their re-

 Common sense is just as necessary (even more so) in medicine as in busi- ness or the affairs of every day life. People are getting to know more than they used to. Not so long ago it was the fashion to make all sorts of claims for a medicine, and wind up by asking the reader to go to drug store and buy bottle. People won't stand for that kind of thing now. They want proof-tanglble proof. They want to try the remedy first, and if they find 1t to be what is claimed they will be glad enough to go and buy 1t,
