Two of Estrada's Generals
Oppose Him for President

NEW ORLEANS. August 26,-Unofiicial
advices from Managua indicate that more
or less chaotic conditions prevail through
out a large part OF Nicaragua, as a re-
suit OF the opposition which the conserva
tive party is said TO be making to the
plan to name Gen. Juan ]. Estrada pro-
visional president.
According to reports current in Mana
qua, Gems. Luis Mena and Emiiano
Chamorro have openly declared that Juan
j. Estrada shall not be placed in charge
of the country's affairs.
Another cable dispatch from Managua
says that report has been received there
stating that Ferdinando Rivas was not
killed last Saturday, but that he Is still
at the head of an army of 600 or 700 men
and promises TO form an important factor
in the final outcome OF the turmoil which
now exists
This report was discredited in Mana
qua and was believed to have its founda-
ton in the understanding that Gen. Rivas'
command was still intact, although he Is
no longer at the head.
Mexico's Minister Transferred.
MANAGUA. Nicaragua, August 90
Bartolomone Carbajary Rosas. Mexican
minister to Nicaragua and Costa Rica.
has received orders from his government
to leave Nicaragua and proceed to Costa
Rica. his alternative post. He will leave
today.
1t Is supposed here that the departure
Of the minister Is due to the sympathies
with the Zelaya and Madriz factions in
the revolution with which he Is credited
here.
He assisted in arranging for the trans
portation of President Zelaya to Mexico
-
Nicaragua, and was accounted here as
being on the side of President Madriz
since the now overthrow president sue
ceeded Zelaya in power.

San JUAN DEL SUR. Nicaragua. Au-
gust 26.-Two commissioners have ar
rived at Rivas from Granada with an or
der from the peace commission demand
ing that the governor deliver to them
three lake steamers. The governor re-
piled that he would deliver the vessels
only upon receipt Of an order from the
president. and that If attacked he would
resist and also would send steamers to
lombard Granada.
Later another commissioner arrived at
point six miles from Rivas. and tele-
graphed for a guard TO take him through
the lines. He says that he brings an on
clal announcement or the turning over
OF the government to Jose Dolores Estra-
da, and of the intention of Estrada to de-
liver the presidency to his brother, Gen.
Juan Estrada.

MILITARY EFFICIENCY

Emperor William Delivers Mar
tiaI Address-Advice to
German Mothers.

KOENIGSBERG, East Prussia, August
26.-Emperor William. who Is making q
tour Of eastern Germany in connection
with his visit to Posen for the dedication
Of his new castle there, delivered a
martial speech at the provincial banquet
here last night. in which he urged the
necessity OF cooperation with him in his
work for the welfare and defense OF the
country.
Taking as a text the role OF Queen
Louise Of Prussia during the Napoleonic
wars. he extoiied her virtues and pointed
out how her memory had fired the
courage of Prussian soldiers and saved
the country.
What does the lofty figure OF Queen
Louise teach us?' he asked. 1T teaches
us that we men should cultivate all the
military virtues and always be wiling to
use them in defense of the country.
Above all else. IT teaches us to maintain
the equipment Of our army"
Extols His Grandfather.
In the course OF his long speech the
emperor alluded to Emperor William I of
Germany In terms indicating the identity
Of his convictions with those of his grand
father.
my grandfather" he said, again, by
his own right. placed the Prussian crown
upon his head and again proclaimed it to
be bestowed upon him by Gods grace
alone and not by parliaments. assemblages
OF the people or resolutions OF the people.
He saw in himself the chosen instrument
of heaven and as such he regarded his
duty as regent and ruler"
German women, said the emperor,
should learn from Queen Louise that
their chief duty does not lie In partici-
pating in public meetings and societies,
nor in attaining supposed rights in which
they may be able to do the same things
as men. but in quiet work at home and
in the family"
Respect for Age Urged.
They should train, he said. the young
generations, before all things, I'm obedi-
ence and respect toward age. They
should make IL clear to their children and
to their children's children that they
should not strive to live at the cost Of
others nor at the cost Of their father
land. but that. on the contrary, they
should have the fatherland alone in
mind, devoting all their strength and in
telligence to the welfare OF the country.
In closing the emperor said:
Considering myself as the instrument
of the Master. regardless of passing views
and opinions. / go my way, which IL
solely devoted to the prosperity and
peaceful development OF our fatherland."

Ault.-That hogs can be profitably
and successfully raised in Colorado is
the opinion of NJ. L. King. a farmer
living one and a half miles east of
Ault. who sold $1,000 worth of hogs
from his farm during the past season
and has 81 900 worth in his pens right
now. Mr.. King came here five years
ago from Iowa, and one of the first
things which struck him was the few
hogs raised here. As he came from a
country where stock is an important
factor in the farmers scheme Of
things. he determined to try 1t out
here. He pastures his hogs on alfalfa
in the summer. then fattens them with
a little grain before selling them. AL
falfa has been found to be one OF the
best possible foods for hogs. and 1t is
not often that a 10-acre patch Of 1t
will bring in such good returns as In
hogs. After being fed on alfalfa they
need little grain to finish them up.
Mr.. King uses barley mostly.

scalp was solid scale all over. The

had about given up all hopes when We
read OF the Cuticura Remedies. We at
once got a cake of Cuticura Soap. a
box Of Cuticura Ointment and one bot
tie Of Cuticura Resolvent. and fol.
lowed directions carefully. After the
first dose Of the Cuticura Resolvent.
we used the Cuticura Soap freely and
applied the Cuticura Ointment. Then
she began to improve rapidly and In
two weeks the scale came OF her
head and new hair began to grow. In
a very short time she was well. She Is
now sixteen years OF age and a pic
ture OF health. We used the Cuti-
cura Remedies about five weeks. reg

used no other treatment after we
