Madero to Have Trial.
Washington, Feb. 21.—Inter-
vention of the United States gov-
ernment to secure justice, or at
least a fair trial for fallen Presi-
dent Madero of Mexico, as an-
nounced by Secretary Knox at
the cabinet meeting today, was
an unexpected development of
the state department’s policy in
regard to that republic. As re-
cently as yesterday, it was an-
nounced that there was no inten-
tion to depart from the policy of
non-intervention in the Mexican
troubles. It appears, however,
that this statement was based up-
on the natural assumption that
the newly established Mexican
government would observe the
amenities of civilized warfare in
its treatment of persons of either
high or low degree and when the
killing of Gustavo Madero gave
ground for genuine apprehension
for the fate of the' ex-president,
it was felt that the time had come
to stretch forth a restraining
hand.
The administration feels that it
has not in any manner departed
from its policy of strict neutrality.
Its action was purely impersonal
and probably would have follow-
ed as surely had General Diaz
been captured by Madero and
threatened with death without the
process of law. The fact is,
though not officially admitted,
that in an unofficial manner the
state department did bring to
bear influences which saved Diaz
from death when he was captur-
ed by Gen. Beltran at Vera Cruz
last fall. It is believed that the
Mexican people themselves, after
the heat of combat is over, will
be the first to express gratitude
to the United States government
for preventing the placing of such
a spot on the reputation of their
country as would follow what
practically would amount to the
murder of a deposed president.
Civil War Is Inaugurated in Mexico.
Mexico City, .Feb. 21.—It is
certain that the new administra-
tion in Mexico must deal with a
new revolution in addition to the
remnants of the old one. Two-
thirds of the states of the repub
lie formally have refused to rec
ognize President Huerta and two
or three others are doubtful.
Venostiano Carranza, governor
of the state of Coahuila, with 1200
men is working with Emilio and
Raoul Madero, brothers of the
deposed president who are at San
Pedro, Madero’s old home near
Saltillo, which is Carranza’s base
Jose Gayou, former governor of
Sonora, has telegraphed from
Mexicali to Gov. Maytorena of
Sonora of gathering 3000 men
and 3,000,000 pesos to restore
Madero to office.
Governor Maytorena has tele-
graphed the senate and provi-
sional President Huerta repudiat
ing the new administration.
The governor of Yucatan, ig
norant of the death of Gustavo
Madero, has wired him offering
the services of 1200 men and
money to assist in a new revolu
tion.
What will be done with ex
President Madero has not yet
been determined. Juan Sanchez
Axcona, Madero’s private secre
tary, is a prisoner at Pueblo. ]
was reported today that he'had
been shot, but the repbrt proved
untrue..
Gen. Porfirio Diaz, ex-presi-
dent of the republic, who has
been in exile in Europe, is coming
home. There is not the slightest
possibility that he again will mix
in the politics of Mexico but his
enforced exile is ended. Word
was received today from Paris
that within a short time Gen
Diaz will be in his private resi-
dence in Cadena street, an inter-
ested spectator of the1 develop-
ment of the new regime.
It was authoritatively stated
today that the arrival at home'of
Gen. Diaz will be not later than
April 2, the anniversary of the
taking of Puebla byj.his forces in
1867, in the war of French inter-
vention. This day will be cele
brated in honor of Gen. Diaz.

At the practice meet of the
Lone Star Odd Fellows Associa-
tion held here Friday, Killeen
took the banner for best degree
work, having made two points
more than any other lodge in the
contest. There were forty-four
persons present from Killeen and
they, as well as others, showed
great skill in exemplifying the
secret work of the order. Mrs.
R. L. Nichols, of Lampasas, took
the medal for the best Past-Grand
charge in Rebekah work.
- One Watermelon Deal.
B. F. Yoakum, chairman of
the board of the Frisco system,
writing in the February number
of Dry-Farming and Rural
Homes, throws new light on the
oft-repeated cry that railroad
freight rates eat up the grower’s
profit on farm crops. He tells of
a car of watermelons which was
loaded akan Oklahoma town for
shipment to St. Paul. The car-
contained 1,050 melons, for
which the grower received five
cents each, after having hauled
them five miles.' The freight on
the car to St. Paul was $75, or
seven and a half cents a melon
for the 600-mile haul by railroad,
thus making each melon cost
12 1-2 cents at St. Paul, or $131
for the entire car load.
These were the sums paid to
the producer and the railroad,
yet the shipper who bought from
the farmer, sold the melons in
St. Paul for $315 and the final
consumer paid from 60 to 75
cents per melon or from $600 to
$750 for that same $53 car load.
Mr. Yoakum’s point was that the
farmers themselves should or-
ganize for co-operative market-
ing purposes, and get a larger
share of this 1200 per cent profit
for themselves.
OBJECTIONABLE.
“That grand opera basso has a
powerful voice.”
“Powerful! I should say so! Why,
; the other night when he was sing-
ing, not one of the party in our box
could hear a word the others were
saying.”
JUST ABOUT THAT.
“What do they mean^by platonic
love?” asked the first'half of the
parlor sketch.
“It means,” replied the other
half, “that the young man is not
making enough to support a wife.”

WHAT SAVED
JEH LIFE
Mrs. Martin Tells About a Painful
Experience that Might Have
Ended Seriously.
Rivesville, W. Ya.—Mrs. Dora Martin,
in a letter from Rivesville, writes:
“For three years, I suffered with wo-
manly troubles, and had pains in my
back and side. I was nervous and
could not sleep at night.
The doctor could not help me! He
said I would have to be operated on be-
fore I could get better. I thought I
would try using Cardui.
Now, I am entirely well.
I am sure.Cardui saved my life. I
will never he without Cardui in my
home. I recommend it to my friends.”
For fifty years, Cardui has been re-
lieving pain and distress caused by wo-
manly trouble. It will surely help you.
It goes to the spot—reaches the
trouble—relieves the symptoms, and
drives away the cause.
If you suffer from any. symptoms of
womanly trouble, take Cardui.
Your druggist sells and recommends
it. Get a bottle from him today.
