DO Ghosts Haunt Swumps?

No, never. It's foolish to fear a
fancied evil when there are real and
deadly perils to guard against in
swo mps and marshes, bayous and
low. Ids. These are the malaria
germs that cause, ague, chills and
fever, weakness, aches in the bones
and muscles and may induce deadly
typhoid. But Electric Bitters de-
stroys and casts out these vicious
germs from the blood. "rhree bot

TALK OF PEACE CONTINUES.
Rebel EnvOys Arrive at III Pnso-

IGl Paso, Texas, April 3.-Interest
here In the Mexican war situation to-
day centers IN the presence OF Fran
cisco !. Madero, ST., and Alfonso Ma
dero, who arrived in Eel Paso last
night, presumably on a mission Of
peace.
While maintaining complete silence
regarding the reason for their pres
ence here, the father and brother of
the insurrecto leader intimated that
developments might be expected
within the next few days. 1t is be-
lieved they are here to await the ar
rival of messengers from the insur-
Tecto chief at chihuahua, bringing
the terms upon which he will con-
sent to cessation Of hostilities.
Must Formulate Terms.
That these terms must be formu-
lated by the men who are in the field
was declared by Alfonso Madero last
night That the elder Madero's in
fluence will be strongly for peace is
the statement OF those who claim to
know his attitude. The father of the
insurrecto leader, 1t is said, has never
given the movement his whole-heart-
ed support and would welcome the
end OI the war upon any reasonable
terms. Couriers who left for the in
surrecto chiefs camp, near Chihua-
hua, few days ago are now believed
to have carried messages from the ell
der Madero, and these, 1t Is surmised,
urged the son to make for peace.
