Troops and Madrlx Prepares 20 Elee.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2z.-The pro
visional government OF Nicaragua Is
tottering to It's fall. the Madriz army
Is demoralized. CONSERVATION reigns
In Managua and DR.. Madriz, his gen.
eral-tn-chief, Toledo, and DIR. Irias,
are preparing 70 fee the country.
This. In effect, is the advice received
by the state department from United
States Consul Olivares at Managua,
which advices were confirmed by dis
patches In similar vein from Mr..
Johnson, United States consul at Co
rinto.
The panic In the capital also is
threatening the lives and property OF
Apericans. Crowds are reported
traversing the streets crying Death
to the Yankees" While the cruisers
Vicksburg and Yorktown are at Cor.
into and In close touch with the sit
uation, the legation and consulates In
Managua are under heavy police
guard and preparations have been
made to meet attacks on American

The situation grew out of the vic
tory won by the Estradan troops
Thursday. when the revoiutionists
defeated a strong column OF govern.
ment troops and effected the crossing
of the Tipitapa river. The rout of
the government army seems to have
been complete.

Moissant assembled at Upchurch at
APO this morning in the teeth of e
forty mile gale. He flew for nearly
an hour. but owing to the violence
or the wind. he could not preserve
his course and finally alighted at
Seven Oaks at 5:25. after an IS"
shaped flight. as far from London as
when he started.
Moissants descent was made at ter
tific speed, the aeroplane alighting
in a plowed field, after narrowly es-
Gaping a hedge. The propeller. rud-
der and wirework we're broken and
the wheels were buckled.
Moissant showed himself an aviator
of wonderful skill in today's fight
despite his inexperience. His Bleriot
monoplane rolled and tipped in the
terrific wind and repeatedly dropped
for distances of from fifty to one
hundred feet.
Seven Oaks is % miles southeast
OF London. Moissant assembled at Up
church last Saturday. but after a
flight Of only one mile he was forced
to alight, owing to motor trouble and
high wind.

But at half-past ii log dropped
noisily, the light of it blazed up
and the Observation-Disclosures, the
deed to be done in her veins,
awakened. 1t needed all her energy
to persuade the boy, numb with
sleep, that sleep was not the one
possibility in a midnight world. But
there was persistent spirit in her,
and in 10 minutes two muffled little
figures crept through the shadowy
house and out over the white lawn,
misty with -Still-falling snow, and
up the slope to the door of the
stable.
There were half-visible footsteps
in the white carpet on the ground,
but the big flakes had blurred them,
the, children did not notice. An
hAAr before a man had hurried
along the road from town, a power
full man, walking fast. AS he
walked he spoke to himself in a low
tone.
"The note about Pat O'Hara's
broken leg ought to take him three
miles out of his way-it ough to de-
lay him an hour. Lucky | remem-

would be kept"
He passed a stream, tinkling sill
verify in the stiffness under it's roof
of ice and snow. He halted and
stared down.
Il took my first trout in that
hole" he murmured, and swung on.
But the ghost of boy had
caught his arm and chung to him
and went with him down the road.
He could not shake the ghost-boy
loose.
Doctor Harding took you home
to lunch that day the boy whis-
pered, land the trout was cooked,
and they made an event of It."

The sophistry which has soothed
many consciences was good enough
for this desperate one. Something
which felt like self-respect, the UNI
used sensation of hope, sent him
springing over the two miles from
the railway town to Fairfield, and
through the dim, well-remembered
lanes to Fairfield parsonage.
He found his way readily down
the shadowy drive to the stable,
and the door, left unlocked for the
master, opened at touch. The
horse stamped in his stall in the
dark, and Maxwell went to him and
spoke quietly, and he was still.
