He made an address from a stand
erected on Main street, and before
leaving for Birmingham attended his
first barbecue of the trip at the Girls
Industrial school.
The president took occasion here to
pay tribute to Secretary Dickinson.
In fact, ever since he has entered Mis-
sissippi Mr. Taft has lost no oppor-
tunity to give evidence of his high re-
gard for the secretary of war.
In the course of his midnight speech
at jackson last night the president
said of Secretary Dickinson:
Now l have got Mac Dickinson
in the cabinet. He did not come be-
cause he wanted to. He came be-
cause he knew why I wanted him.

AMERICANS HELD
IN MEXICAN JAlLS
tCoptinued from Pare ODe'


was thrown into Belem prison. The
Mexican officers admitted an American
had been arrested and that his case
would come up for examination in a
few weeks. Then 1t was discovered the
man was an Englishman, and he was
released instantly. Citizens of the
United States who are residents here
declare the Mexican officials do not
hesitate to imprison Americans and
keep them incommunicado. Endless
red tape would have to be unwound be-
fore an American would be released
from prison.
All Glasses Restless
A spirit of unrest prevails all over
the country. Among the middle class
is this especially noticeable. ]. Ken
meth Turner's articles on "Barbarous
Mexico" have aroused Americans and
other foreigners here. and many quiet
Investigations are in progress. 1t is
known that consuls have been instruct
ed to make thorough Investigations and
report on the slavery that exists in
Yucatan and the Vale Macdonald.
Deep interest is taken here in the
De Lara case. If he Is dGported he
will fall into the hands of the soldiers,
then it will be blindfold, ditch and a
firing squad-a repetition of the Ferrer
killing. Americans here are praying
they may be spared the disgrace of
seeing their country deliver into the
hands of an autocrtaic power a politi-
cal refugee who has sought sanctuary
under the Stars and Stripes.
1t is known here that the govern
ment has a fund that is being literally
used across the border to corrupt po-
lice officers and hire detectives to aid
i'm persecution or deportation of expa-
triated Liberals who have dared to ad-
vocate the election of president to
succeed the perpetual incumbent. One
fund of $4,000 is said to be devoted to
use in a California city, where certain
detectives are. according to the report,
on the pay roll of both the municipal
ity and the Mexican government.

zELAYA CLAIMS
TWO VICTORIES
NICARAGUA PRESIDENT AIDED
BY HONDURAS
WASHINGTON NOTIFIED OF GEN.
TRIAL AMERICAN ALLY
Gasoline Launch Detained by Banana
Republic Under Impression 1t Be-
Ionged to Rebels, Although
Papers Regular
[Rx Associated Press. ]

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-TWO VIC
.ories were claimed over revolutionary
troops by President Zelaya of Mica
ragua In dispatches sent today TO
Senior Rodriguez, charge d'affaires OF
the Nicaraguan legation here.
The first cablegram said revolution
airy troops abandoned Guapinot, on the
Rama river yesterday on the approach
of the regular forces.
The second dispatch said the revolu-
tionary following had been defeated at
the San Carlos river. and more gov
ernment troops had been started to
San Juan del Norte. The first authen-
tic information that any Central Amer
lean states had taken sides in the revo-
iutionary movement in Nicaragua
reached the state department today. Ii
seems to indicate that Honduras mas
espoused the cause of the Zelaya gov
ernment.
A telegram received today stated
that a representative of the La Guna
de Perlas Fruit company. an American
concern, had complained to the lega-
ton at Tegucigalpa, Honduras, that
the government OF Honduras had de-
tained a gasoline launch flying the
Nicaraguan flag which left Bluefelds
for fuel after the revolution had
started
Honduras Acted Wrongly
Apparently, the dispatch says, the
government of Honduras has acted on
the ground the launch belonged to the
Nicaraguan revolutionists.
The ships papers were reported to
be regular. 1t is reported one Mica
raguan revolutionist was a passenger.
There is an impression that the gov
ernment of Honduras is favorable to
Zelaya and that there are reports that
men, arms and money are being sent
from Honduras to his assistance.
In view of this action of the Hon
duras government, attention has been
called to article OF the additional
convention of the general treaty of
peace and amity signed at Washing
ton, December 20. 1907 which reads:
mo government of Central America,
in case OF civil war, shall intervene in
favor of or against the government of
the country where the struggle takes
place."
What action. II any. will be taken by
other nations signing the Washington
convention in case Honduras action
in breaking the agreement in fully es-
tablished. does not appear, the state
department declining to discuss the
matter.

Slow Digestion
A Frequent Form of Stomach Trouble
Readily Cured by Stuart'S
Dyspepsia Tablets.

This complaint constitutes one of tho
most common forms of dyspepsia. 1t IS
the bane of those who ignore natural
laws, and forget that the healthy ac-
tion of the stomach is dependent on
the condition of both body and mind.
Those whose pursuits oblige them to
pass much of their time within doors;
men of letters and of business. whose
minds are seldom perfectly relaxed:
administrators, spectators, financiers
and the various professional men fall
ready victims to 1t.
Slow digestion occurs in persons of
all temperaments and habits, but
oftenest in those of irritable or nerv-
Gus disposition and anxious aspect of
countenance, who are popularity char
acterized as "dyspeptic looking" Eat
ing too rapidly is common, exciting
cause of the disorder, as is also imper7
feet mastication of food from loss of
teeth.
There is also a deficiency of the gas
trio juices and an insufficiency of the
motor and muscular, or churning
movements of the stomach walls, and
the food remains entirely too long in
this organ, instead of being passed
down into the small intestine at the
proper time.
Even a dinner not exceeding the or
binary limits is followed at varying in
tervals but usually within an hour,
by a feeling of weight and oppression
in the stomach. For several hours
afterward the person experiences de-
cided discomfort, and should even
light supper be taken, horrible night
mare and troubled dreams are certain
to result.
81 should be quite we'll il it were
not necessary to eat" is a common
statement made by sufferers from this
form of stomach complaint. Many of
them actually dread the approach of
meal time knowing what disagreeable
symptoms they are sure to experience
after eating; and would doubtless dis
continue the ingestion of food into
their stomachs altogether If 1t were
possible to live without eating.
There is really no necessity what
ever for depriving ones self of the
pleasures of the table or to starve
the rest of the system because the
stomach is derelict in its duty and
does not digest the food as quickly or
as thoroughly as it should.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets compel
the stomach to perform its functions
properly and assist it very materially
in the discharge of it's duties, single
grain of the principal digestive ingre-
dent of these tablets being sufficient
to digest 5000 grains of food. They
not only digest the food, however, but
also tone up and strengthen the peptic
glands and the motor functions, so
that the food will not remain in the
stomach longer than necessary. Every
case of slow digestion and all other
forms of dyspepsia are readily durable
by the use OF these tablets, which
make up the gastric deficiency and
supply the disordered stomach with
exactly the same digestive juices that
are found in healthy, vigorous
stomach.
Purchase a package of these won
derful digestors from your druggist
today for 80 cents and cure yourself
of your dyspepsia. Send us your name
and address and we will forward you
