BREAKS A BAD COLD IN
JUST A VERY FEW HOURS.
Proves Quinine is Never Effective in
the Cure of a Severe Cold
Or the Grippe.

Nothing else that you can take will
break your cold or end grippe so
promptly as a dose of Pape's Cold
Compound every two hours until
three consecutive doses are taken.
The most miserable neuralgia pain,
headache, dullness, head and nose
stuffed up, feverishness, sneezing, run
ming of the nose, sore throat, mucous
catarrhal discharges. soreness, stiff
ness. rheumatism pains, and other
distress begin to leave after the very
first dose.
Pape's Cold Compound is the result
of three years research at a cost of
more than fifty thousand dollars, and
contains no quinine. which we have
conclusively demonstrated is not ef-
fective in the treatment of colds or
grippe.
Take this harmless Compound as
directed, with the knowledge that
there is no other medicine made any
where else in the world. which will
cure your cold or end Grippe misery
as promptly and without any other
assistance or bad after effects as a %
cent package of Pape's Cold Com
pound, which any druggist in the
world can supply.

InsurrectoS Active
In Lower California
Driving Out Federals

LOS ANGELES, Cal. March n.-Suc-
cess or failure OF the MaGcro revolution
in Mexico matters little to the insurrec-
tos of Lower California. according 10
statements today by leaders of the jun
ia who are In charge of the Lower Cali
fOrnia campaign.
The insurreCtos here are striving TO
drive the Mexican federals out of the
Lower California peninsula and to es-
tablish a socialist democracy, to be en-
tirely separate and distinct from the
proposed Madero government. Ricardo
Magon, a socialist and editor of La
Revolution. will be named president of
the new republic if the insurrectos win.
Since early in January, when Generals
I.cyVa and Berthold, with forty men,
crossed the International boundary from
Calexico, Cal. seized and burned the
Mexican federal customs house at Mex
icali, Mexico, and drove out the fed
eral garrison, the inSurrectoS have held
the town and their force has grown to
abou. 400.
General Leyva is now preparing to
evacuate Mextali and proceed against
III Juana and Gnsenada, the only other
towns in the peninsula. Mexicali is fifty
miles from the Colorado river dam.

Poor railroad service into Sap Antonio
is causing a great amount Of adverse
criticism. Army officers declare the

few hours after orders had been Issued
but that the railroads could not furnish
proper rolling stock. The result was
that l0S hours after mohiliza tion was
ordered only two regiments-the Seven

artillery left Fortress Monroe at )
o'clock this morning on the transports

Their S,OOO-mile ocean trip to the Gulf

Only indefinite reports as to the ar
rival of troops have been received from
the Mexican border, and the war De-
partment is not familiar with just what
troops have reached their destination.
1t was reported at the department this

infantry. There are three regiments 70

artillery 1.-TWO regiments) with 2.2j0 men,
ore battalion of engineers, 800 men
two companies of signal corps, 200 men
four ambulance companies, 3lS meI
four field hospital companies, go men.
Because the division ordered TO the
Mexican border is not Of full war
strength, it was claimed that the diyi-
sion actually doing duty there at this
time will not consist of more than
10000 men. The Third Cavalry and
the Twenty-third Infantry are part of
this strength.
AS to the Invitations sent the au-
thorities of the National Guard in the

out the country. According to let
ters and kilograms of acceptance

Guard is anxious to get on the scene
of action. The War Department will

DENIES THAT JAPAN
IS BACK OF REVOLT
Limantour Does Not Say
Two Governments Have
Agreement.

NEW YORK, March ia positive de
NAL that Japan and Mexico have any
secret understanding that should cause
apprehension on the part of any othel
government" was made by Senior JOSE
Limantour, Mexican minister of finance
today.
His denial, which was in the form Of
an authorized statement" did moi
reach the extent of denying that there
was any kind of an agreement between
the two rations.
Limantour declared that the report
that Japan was financing the revolu-
ton in Mexico was Ito laugh"
He again insisted positively that there
could never be intervention in Mexico
I by tho United States, and said that the
"maneuvers" were understood In Mexi-
CO to be for the purpose of starving
out the insurrectos in northwestern
Mexico.
His Statement.
The Limantour statement was as fol-
lows:
ITO my mind the association of the
government of Japan with the gov
ernment in Mexico is absurd. Official
denials have been issued by repre-
SentatlVcS OF both the japanese ana
Mexican governments that Mexico has
given any privileges to Japan that
should cause apprehension on the part
of other governments. To say that
Japan is financing the insurrection
in Mexico is to laugh.
THE dispatches in the American
newspapers from Mexico City and
Washington are very well defined and
show that affairs are thoroughly un-
derStood by the officials of each gov
ernment
q sincerely hope that very soon
there will be an equally thorough
understanding between the people OF
the United States and Mexico.
No Intervention.
LAS 1 set forth yesterday. my gov
ernment could not consider interven-
tiOn for moment. I think the
United States has no idea of inter-
vening and there has been nothing
of an authoritative character to indi-
cate that intervention has been con-
tempIated by any other foreign power
having interests in Mexico.
Naturally my country desires that
the inSurrectionistS in northwestern
Mexico shall be prevented from Snug
Cling arms. ammunition and supplies
from this side of the border. That is
what the United States troops pro-
pose to do, according to all trust
worthy information. 1t now only re-
mains for them tc accomplish this
task.

The Washington times., 1911-03-11

Far-reaching military plans for the
massing of still other troops on the
Mexican border are rapidly being per-
fected by the War Department.
The utmost activity prevails among
the experts of the General Staff, and
already plans have been made on paper
for the quick mobilization of another
division of 1900 troops
The first division of 5000 was not
II obilized without the dispatch of hun
dreds of kilograms from Washington
and from the various department head
quarters.
Ready For Emergency.
In case it becomes necessary to call
the second army division into the field,
this can be done by the dispatch of a
score of kilograms from the Capital.
The War Department has profited al
ready by its experience in ordering the
first division to take the field.
But the plans wrought out by the
War Department reach still farther
than to the calling out of another di-
vision. Back of the regular troops stand
the National Guard forces. The general
staff has made minute calculations as
to what can be done with the guard in
an emergency, and has even gone so
far as to have on paper the lists of
organizations in the different States
that will be called into service If the
need arises.
Called In An Emergency.
1t is true that there will be no call
for another diversion of regulars unless
the emergency reaches the gravest pro-
portions. 1t would probably not be
necessary to call more troops into the
field unless the American forces were
actually to get orders to go in and
move over the Rio Grande.
But the sarsighted measures Of pre-
paredness which ara Jeing taken indi-
