composed of the pastors of the evan
gelical churches of the city, and five

exchange of pulpits among the minis
ters of the city as part of the pre-
liminary work for the revival. The

pulpits, but no one save themselves
will have any information concerning
who will occupy each particular pull
pit.

On the following Sunday each
church will start an "every-member-
present" campaign. All the churches
of the city will make special effort TO

William Dudley Foulke probably. will
be. reelected president of the National
Municipal League, which holds Its
nineteenth annual meeting in Toronto,
beginning November il. Mr.. Foulke
has been at the head of the organiZa-
ton for the last four years.
Problems of the modern municipal
ity will be given consideration during
the five days session. Many speakers
of note will appear during the meeting,
including Sir James P. Whitney,
premier of the province of Ontario;
Lieutenant Governor Sir John NJ. Glib
son, and President Falconer, of the
University of Toronto.
Secretary to Report.
The formal sessions of the league
will be held in COnvOcation hall, Uni
versity of Toronto, and in the city
hall. AT the first meeting the secre-
tary, Clinton r. Woodruff, of Philadel-
phia, will deal with the question, "Of
what does municipal advance con-
sist.' The secretary will give a
broad outline of the municipal devel-
opment of the preceding twelve
months and show wherein there has
been significant development.
Following this talk will come the
annual address of the president, Will
liam Dudley Foulke. Mr.. Foulke' s
previous addresses have dealt with
highly technical subjects, but this year
he has felt that it would be appropri-
ate to turn attention to the necessity
for the creation of sound public
opinion in municipal affairs.
Mr.. Foulke believes without such
opinion the most carefully devised
plans and the most skilled expert
would produce but Indifferent results
! in democratic communities.

PRES. HUERTA HOLDS
TO EXECUTIVE FORT
O'Shaughnessy Holds Long
Conference With MeXi-
can Head.
RESULTS ARE SECRET
Cabinet Members Refused
Permission to Attend I'M
portant Meeting.

MEXICO CITY. Nov. 6.-Angered
ton brought against him to compel his
resignation General Huerta told his
cabinet today that he had decided to
remain in the national palace in spite
of any threats OF the United States
That the Mexican situation has been
further complicated by President Will
sons latest demand for Huerta's res
ignatiOn and that plans for a peaceful
solution of the problem have been for
a time frustrated is apparent.
General Huerta has not yet formally
rejected President Wilson's demand
nor has he communicated with Charge
O'Shaughnessy ON the subject up to
noon today. The possibility that the
United States will go further in its
naval demonstration in Mexican wa
ters has been strengthened by the de-
velopments of the last seventy-two
hours.
Even some of the most guarded of
the conservatives have counseled
Huerta not to resign, even If his re-
tention of the office of executive
means armed Intervention.
Nelson O'Shaughnessy, American
charge. sent to Washington early to-
day a long dispatch telling the result
of the conference which he had with
Gen. Huerta late yesterday. O'Shaugh-
messy refused to divulge what had
been discussed at the meeting but his
anxiety was apparent today.
Reports in official circles were that
Huerta informed the American official
that under no circumstances would he
consider resigning from the office ar
the present time. but he would will
ingly retire as soon as the incoming
congress decided who should hold the
office of president ad interim. The
next congress will be controlled by
| Huerta.
Cabinet Not Present.
Only three men were present at the
| conference at the national palace
| They were Huerta, O'Shaughnessy and
/ Senor Robago, Huerta's private secre
| tary. Members of the cabinet who ar
rived at the palace during the confer
ence, were not allowed to enter. In
this connection it is reported that Min
! lister of Foreign Affairs Mohenos viii

ceived. he added

 Nothing uncertain about the work ot Doants Kidney Pills in Norwich, There is plenty of positive proof of this in the testimony of citizens. Such evidence should convince the most skeptica1 doubter. Read the following statement:
 Mrs. Mary Neff. 465 Main Street. Norwich, Conn, says: For many years a member of my family was subject to attacks of kidney complaint t. He suffered from pains across the loins and at times could scarcely get about on account of his back being SO stiff and lame The kidney secretions were irregular in passing and often con tained sediment. Doan's Kidney Pills. procured at N. D. Sevin & Sons Drug Store, proved of benefit from the first and soon every symptom of kidney complaint disappeared"
 The above statement was given August 27 1908, and several years later Mrs. Neff said: .1 willingly con- firm all I said in praise of Doan s Kidney Pills in the testimonial given for publication in 1908. Nothing has occurred to change my high opinion of Doan's Kidney Pills
