Apoplexy stands near the top as a
cause of death among old people.
Apoplexy runs in families good deal.
If a man is of an apoplectic family
and has arrived at the apoplectic age,
it will be wise for him to watch his
digestion carefully, avoiding all in
temperance in eating and drinking.
If he finds himself dizzy and a little
nauseated he should take a dose of
saline water without delay.

A fussin' in the suds:

A washin' rich folks buds.

The clothes as they get dry.
And then she's handed out enough

In the little houses of Canary
ville," which is the district behind the
yards, there is a sense of personal
loss. To his thousands of rparishion-
ers he was king. They knew him as
friend, counselor and confessor.
But in the clubs and hotels where
actors, professional men and other
men of the world are wont to gather,
there is also a sense of loss. They
knew him as a good mixer. T" And
no banquet was truly Chicagoish I'M
less he was present.
He was great favorite with actors,
and theatrical stars of international
regulations always visited Father
Dorney. when in town.

Huerta's Emissaries Seized.

Mexico City, May 5.-The members
of a commission sent by the Mexican
government to induce Emiliano Zapata
and his rebel followers in the south to
join forces with the federal troops in
case of a foreign invasion, were on
Monday seized by rebels on the border
of the state of Morelos and held as
prisoners. Tuesdays train from the
capital to Puerto Mexico will, accord
ing to refugees, carry ITO Americans
from Guanajuato and ninety from
Aguas Calientes. They say there are
still 400 or 500 Americans in the cap
ital and at other points in the interior.

him to send personal representative
to participate in the mediation negoti-
atoms
The mediators told the constitution
alist that as long as he maintained his
present attitude they must decline to
treat with him. Gen. Carranza had
inquired in a note to the ENJOYS what
subjects special representative
might be required to discuss, pointing
out that if the general problem Of
pacifying Mexico were to be approach
ed he could not authorize any one to
participate in the negotiations.
He reiterated that he would consent
to mediation only on the incidents
which had brought about a contro-
versy between the United States and
Mexico" holding that he was the con-
stitutionally chosen leader to whom
complaint about the insult at Tampico
and other offenses originally should
have been made.
Carranza Has No Standing.
In their telegram ON Monday night
the mediators quoted Carranza's last
note to them, adding that as long as
he maintained that attitude they must
decline to receive representative
from him as they could not separate
the incidents at Tampico and else
where which had brought about fric-
ton between Mexico and the United
States from the general subject of
pacifying Mexico
The situation at Mexico City gave
added Importance to the summoning
of Joaquin d'Casasus from Carlsbad
1t was believed that his real post was
to be minister of foreign affairs at
Mexico City to take the place of the
inexperienced Ruiz, named last Sat
urday when Huerta disposed ~of Por-
tillo.
The minister of foreign affairs is in
direct line for the presidency, under
the Mexican constitution, so that this
would bring to the succession a man
regarded as particularly strong in
case Huerta disappeared from the
scene. Casasus was formerly Next
can ambassador at Washington.

Discredited RumOrs of War Between Russia and Aus
 tria Help Wheat

Chicago, March 1S.--Discredited ru- mors of an impending break in rela tions between Russia and Austria were giving the market q lift The outcome was an advance of lsdAe net. Other speculative commodities. too, showed n rise. corn F e ssc, oats 14c and provis- ions : F c to 15G 17lRc.
 War talk quickly brought denials that any serious trouble was in prospect. Furthermore, the denials were empha- sized by the fact that eonsols closed strong. with substantial gain. It was evident, however, that tho trade had been caught in an oversold condition and there was consequently little re- action from the top prices. Preceding the bulge July delivery especially was under pressure from the bears. Larger world shipments. and highly favorable domestic crop reports constituted the chief reasons. It was said the amount of winter killing promised to be the smallest on record
 Corn gathered strength throughout the session. Cash demand was better and smaller receipts were predicted Ru- mors of export sales appeared to be unfounded, except 500 bushels to go to Cuba. Shorts were particularly uneasy over adviees of liberal sales at Mis- souri river centers.
 Oats moved up with corn and wheat Elevator interests did considerable buy ing of May.
 Highest prices for hogs this season carried the provision market up grade. one of the largest packers undoubtedly bought today through brokers.

 Weather conditions made no improve ment over night and frost was reported in Texas we'll down toward the south ern counties. This caused buying in the early trading.

PRINCIPAL STOCKS UP APO|NT OR MORE Unexpected Turn for Better
 in Market After Indif-
 ferent Opening

New York. March 1s.-An unexpected turn for the better came in the stock market today, after an indifferent open- ing. The principal stocks were lifted q point or more. There the movement stopped, after an hour of vigorous buy ing.
 There was nothing in the days de- Yelopments to explain the sudden change in the market. The movement apparently represented nothing more than the operations of professional traders. At the opening there was re- newed weakness in various stocks which recently have been under fire. but these declines did not affect the general list. This encouraged specula- tive operations on the long side and 1t reequired only a small amount of buy ing to demonstrate the scarcity of stocks at the current level. The shorts began a retreat and buying for both accounts sent up prices rapidly.
 In the early movement several new low records were made Canadian Pa cific dropped to 203s, the lowest since 1911. Denver and Rio Grande preferred at 1924 was lowest on record Rock Island also made another law mark at 4. On the upturn, Canadian Pacific rose nearly points from it's low figure. New Haven and Chesapeake and Ohio were strong.
 London bought stocks here on a mod crate scale. Canadian Pacific's upturn was influenced largely by foreign buy ing.
 Bonds of the Gould roads and Rock Island bonds were weak in the early trading but recovered later. The general bond market was steady after period of irregularity Total sales, $2,300, 900. United States bonds were unchanged on call.

DEMAND IS BRISK
 THROUGHOUT DAY Change in Wholesale Market Attributed to the w eather.
 Produce Goes Well

The weather of yesterday had much to do with the increased amount of business done in the Morris avenue mar ket, according to the dealers. The de-
 mand was brisk throughout the day. The most noticeable change in the
 market is in eggs. The price is un- changed but the market is strong and tending upward. There are practically
 no eggs to be had on Morris avenue, although <the merchants say that the country is well supplied. Unless the situation is relieved there may be an advance.
 Hens are weak and the price yester- day was reduced 1 cent on the pound. The demand is very good, however. and the merchants are optimistic. Produce dealers say that business in their line is rushing. Prices are but little changed, the market is well sup piled with every commodity and the outlook is bright.
 In the fish market there is still q scarcity. The demand is quite brisk

Liverpool Cotton Market

New York, March 1S.-(Special )-Arbi- trage buying was again the feature of our stock shows a decrease instead of a gain. It was not until May reached 12 cents that enough long cotton was met tc check the advance. At this point tho offerings checked the advance. and while the market closed at about this figure 1t was thought that Liverpool would be lower tomorrow. so after so sharp ad- vance it is only natural to expect some recession at the close of the week.
 To some extent also the technical posi- tion has been attend by the advance and the elimination of a short interest by the liquidation of the longs
 On the other hand 1t is evident that there has appeared demand in the south for grades of about low middling above a parity for delivery here.
