LlftlANTOUR HAS KEY TO SITUATION Intervention Believed Certain if Mexican Minister Fails to Cany Out the Wishes of Washington SAN ANTONIO, Texas, March 20.

Clearing skies, which rapidly dried off the frightfully sticky wax, as Texas black mud is called, permitted a resumption of camp routine today and regimental and brigade commanders seized upon weather to put recruits and old campaigners through prolonged drills in preparation of a Mexican invasion, which they believe is inevitable. Press dispatches telling of the trip to Mexico City of Jose Yves Limantour, Mexican minister of finance, were eagerly seized upon by commanders who believe intervention or non-intervention depends entirely upon the results of Limantour's conference with the Diaz administration aiul secret conferences with Madero's lieutenants. Underground reports are that the key to the situation is in Limantoilr's hands and that he rushed to Mexico with an ultimatum from the United States government. May be Known Soon Believing the result of Limantours conferences will be known before the end of a wek and that American intervention Is certain if Limantour fails to carry out the wishes of Washington, army officers are continuing plans for an invasion. With the arrival of 3,000 troops at Fort Crockett, Galveston, it is believed all plans are completed and that 6peedv action will follow.

The fact that transports carrying 3,000 soldiers also carried half a million rounds of ammunition is regarded as most significant for General Mills men do not need that much and officers think it is held in reserve for San Antonio troops In event they proceed to Vera Cruz, via Galveston.

Bailey among the absent witnesses, the trial of State Senator John Broderick of Chicago charged with paying former Senator Daniel Iloltsaw to vote for Wrn. Lorimer for United States senator began here today.

Baileys failure to supply the missing deposit slip which was depended upon by the state to prove that Holtslaw had the money the day after Broderick is alleged to have bribed him, forced the prosecution to depend on a photographic copy of the slip. Today's session was devoted to examining talesmen. TRIM YOUR TREES NOW, SAYS EXPERT Now is the time that people should look to their shade trees, said Park Superintendent J. H. For-rer today.

Examine your shade trees and give them care if they require it. In pruning, by all means preserve the shape of the species. Pruning should always be carefully done.

Wm. Krause. Geo. Bettin. Gea.

Kelly, C. Beranek, Bjarne Borseth. Arrangements have been made for an opening game to be played at Westby, in April. A big supply of red blood corpuscles is what helps to make any man or woman have a healthy, pink complexion and cherry red lips. Resort to paint and powder are totally unnecessary and besides that, are harmful.

Three-grain hypo-nuclane tablets, if used regularly for several months, seem to create a greatly added number of millions to the red and white corpuscles of the blood, and not only improve the color, but add increased flesh to the thin and frail body These tablets promote assimilation, absorption and digestion, and this splendid aid to nature's forces transforms the complexion and figure. They are prescribed by physicians, but being of a perfectly harmless character, self-administration is. being followed by many, who obtain them direct from any well-stocked apothecary shop. Ladies headaches and periodical pains instantly relieved. Blackburn's Fain-Away-Pills.

LECTURE SERIES PROVES POPULAR The largo audience that again thronged St. Mary's church last evening, was certainly a direct proof of the popularity of the gifted speaker as well as of his ell chosen, timely subject. Indeed it seems that as the numbers of the lecture series are decreasing the enthusiasm of the public, if possible, is increasing, Protestants as as Catho- lies finding these subjects highly in teresting and instructive. The. speaker.

Rev. Dr. Robert B. Condon in his subject Modernism' found ample opportunity to appeal to the reason and judgment of hs listeners. Taking a general survey of the modernists ground, he readily showed its untenableness, its total indefensibility to every fair-minded listener.

To say that Christ was, and to admit that his life was a most lofty one, worthy of emulation, and at the same time deny His divinity, and His miracles. Dr. Condon showed to be a huge contradiction. It Is as it were calling a man honest, and a thief and liar at the same time. For, if there was one thing that Christ most emphatically proclaimed and tried to instill into the multitude, it was His divinity.

How reasonable to try to exemplify a life, the very essence of whose existence, one must deny. Then, too. the Modernists trust, that he accepts that only in his spiritual life, which manifests itself through the feelings, the sentiments as it were. Dr. Condon proved to be most absurd.

Even the human parent would not allow the child to be governed only by his feelings. that prove themselves so at variance from day to day and, so often with those of his fellow men. What a grand discord such a state would cause. How then is It reasonable to suppose that God, the Allwise, the Omnipotent, would reveal himself through so unstable a medium as our feelings. That God did reveal himself, and the Divinity of Christ, I)r.

Condon proved in his previous lectures, and In concluding his last night's lecture made a strony plea to reason, confident that the truth would come and God's church be pointed out to us. FIREMEN HURT IN COLD STORAGE FIRE CHICAGO, March 20. With fifty Chicago firemen in hospitals, several seriously hurt, as a result of a fire that did $900,000 damage to the plant of the Monarch Refrigerating company last night, an agitation was begun today' for an investigation of fire conditions in all cold storage plants.

Battalion Chief Berton E. Fisher, was crippled fpr life wheq he fell from the fourth floor of the building while endeavoring to escape the ammonia fumes following an explosion. STRIKE STILL UNSKTTIED CINCINNATI, Ohio, MarclUO. The strike of more than 200 firemen on the Queen and Crescent is no nearer a settlement today, than it was on March 9, when the firemen left their engines, according to a statement today by H. L.

Dickson, general counsel of the Brotherhood of Firemen. There is nothing we want to sell you so much as we do Table Silver. Should you purchase here a half dozen knives and forks of a certain pattern, it is only reasonable to suppose that, as time goes on, you will want other pieces of the same design spoons, butter spreaders, etc. Naturally, you will look for these extra -pieces where you know your pattern is carried, and in that way you are very apt to acquire the habit of trading at this place. Consequently, w-e consider it good business, to make our table silver prices unusually tempting which we have done.
