Nicaragua Battles
With Liberal Forces
In Chinandega Zone.

MANAGUA, Mic, Feb 8 R).-Fight-
ing continues in the town or
Chinandega, so miles from Mama
qua, first occupied by the liberals
and then in part by the conserva-
tives. Official advices indicate that
groups OF liberals managed during
the night to entrench themselves in
the central part of the city, and
with four machine guns in the
towers of Calvario church are stand
ing off the conservative reinforce
ments and the attacking airplanes.
which again today flew over the
battle zone.
General Parajon remains in COM
mand of the liberals and General
Viqrez commands the conservative
forces in the Chinandega sector,
which is an important strategic po-
sition between Corinto and Mana,
qua.
Conservative headquarters here is
advised that General Diego Vargas
with several hundred men is at
tacking the liberals on the south
east SIDE of the city. General Gomez
has arrived at Quezalquaque and
has sent forward about $50 men to
aid VlqueZ at ChlnanueSa, Wnlcn lS
only seven miles distant. Compul-
sorry recruiting continues here and
the majority of young and able
bodied men are headed for the fight
ing zone -Four hundred additional
drafted men were, equipped this
morning and dispatched in the dl-
rection of Chinandega by train, but
as the tracks are torn up at places,
lit is expected that they will meet
lwith considerable, delay.
The question of most concern for
the conservatives at present. is the
source of the vast amount of am
munition used by the liberals in
the recent fighting. Communica-
tion between Managua and the wes:
coast by telephone, telegraph and
railroad is still cut off. Diaz avia-
tors brought some mail and gov
ernment dispatches from Corinto to-

Excess Uric Acid GtUes Rise to Mans
Unpleasant Troubles.
AUTHORITIES agree thatanex-
IA cess of uric acid is primarily
due to faulty kidney action. Reten-
ton of this toxic material often
makes its presence felt by sore, pain
ftll joints, a tired, languid feeling
and, sometimes, toxic backache and
headache. That the kidneys are not
functioning right is often shown by
scanty or burning passage of secre-

GRAND ANSE, Quebec, July
25.-With an armed truce"
prevailing between the mem
bers of the two families, final
preparations were made today
for the open-air wedding Of
James A. BUD Stillman, ir.,
son Of the former president of
the National City Bank, Of
New York, and Lena Viola
Wilson, who was employed in
the Stillman home.
Bud Wants Harmony
Out in the open, under the
woodland sky, where, perhaps, her
own Indian ancestors joined in
tribal rites a century or more ago,
Miss Wilson will be married to-
morrow to the young millionaire.
Although admitting frankly
that there has been friction be-
tween the Stillmans and the Viii
sons over the wedding arrange
ments, Bud said he was confident
that all would be smoothed out
before tomorrow.
Wanted Simple Wedding
The wilson's would have preferred
a simple wedding on the financial
level of their own class. Mrs. Anne
Urquhart Stillman. Buds mother,
who has invited many fashionable
friends to the ceremony, insisted
on more elaborate preparations, and
jealousy and friction threatened the
happiness Of Bud and Lena.
Bud declared today, however, that
Lena would part with her family
il they made matters difficult for
the boy and girl lovers.
But she says that will never
happen" Bud FASTENED to add.
1.-THE Stillmans want no friction
with the Wilson's and neither do the
