palaces of the Mexican capital."
Battle of C-ontrcras
By the ISth of August, 1847, Scott
had established his headquarters nine
miles from the City of Mexico which
was defended by two exterior lines of
fortifications of great strength, held
by Santa Anna with an army 80,000
DRUGLESS HEALING"
Tells How Nerve Insulation Quickly Stops All Pain And Allays
The Inflammation. Even Rheumatism, Sciatica And
Neuritis Yield to Marvelous New Discovery
The nerves of your body are like
electric wires. They carry the nerve
energy (neuro-electrlcity) which is
generated in the brain, to all the
cells and tissues. The nerve sheaths
are insulated to resist a current of
about 4/1000 of a volt as has been
proven with the aid of Lord Kelvin's
galvanometer, an instrument so sen
sitive and accurate that for the first
time it is now possible to measure
the strength of nerve currents.
It has been found that wherever
acute inflammation occurs the in
sulation of the nerves is broken
down, making it difficult, and often
impossible, for nature to heal the
surrounding cells. Germs cannot
live in healthy tissue; It Is only
through damaged cells that they
thrive and spread. Obviously there
fore. the right way to successfully
TO TAKE OFF FLESH
AND REDUCE WEIGHT
Eat Plenty of Wholesome Food, But Breathe Deeply and Try a
Little Oil of Korein With Meals
Some people seem to be able to eat
whatever they please without its in
creasing their weight t<r any degree,
while on the other hand other folks, in
clined to stoutness, try to eat lightly
of the socalled fleshmaklng foods but
keep gaining weight all the time. Such
a condition is both unnatural and
dangerous but can often be quickly
overcome by practicing deep breathing
In the open air. The blood of the aver
age overstout person seemingly falls
to accept enough oxygen to consume
the excessive fatty material in the
food. But frequent open air deep ]
breathing forces additional oxygen into
the system, largely overcoming this
defect and preventing further increase
In weight. Then if this deep breathing
plan is accompanied by the use of a
little oil of korein. taking a few drops
in a capsule each meal and again
before going to bed. It becomes pos
sible to greatly reduce the weight even
in a very few days.
The best feature of this reducing
method is that it is absolutely safe and
THURSDAY EVENING,
strong. Immediately in rron: or Scott
was the fortified village of San Antonio
to the left of which was the hill
Contreras bristling with 61 pieces of
artillery. After some desultory fight
in'g on August 19, the assault upon
Contreras was made at 3 o'clock on
the morning of the 20th, attacks being
delivered simultaneously both front
and rear.
The position was held by the Mex
ican General Valencia with 7,000 vet
eran troops. So effectively had the
American forces been disposed and
so impetuous was the assault that the
treat Inflammatory disease is to
quickly repair the damaged insula
tion and enable nature to restore the
diseased tissue to a healthy condi
tion. lon-o-lex Unguent does this.
lon-o-lex Unguent is not a drug.
It does not contain opiates or nar
cotics. Its action is entirely me
chanical. Applied externally, it
penetrates the tissues and surrounds
the injured nerve sheaths with an
Insulating bath. Then the inflam
mation subsides and nature quickly
repairs the nerve lesion—you are
well. Don't suffer another minute,
just go to H. C. Kennedy and get a
large jar of lon-o-lex Unguent, It
costs little, use as directed and if
you cannot say that it is the irreatest
means ever devised for conquering
inflammation wherever it exists, your
money will be cheerfully returned
without a question.
t unlike so many flesh reducing svstems,
produces no weakening effects. In fact
there are those who have tried it who
say it almost seemed that they gained
in strength with every pound of excess
fat they lost.
The use of oil of korein is intended
to eliminate the need of weakening
purgatives, sweating processes, dang
erous drugs, starvation diets or the
i various forms of violent exercises whlcl.
so many use in a vain effort to reduce
flesh. Instead, oil of korein operates
in a natural and wholly harmless way
to gently reduce the excessive accu
! mulatlons of fat wherever they exist
on your body while the oxygen you are
breathing into your system from the
pure out door air not only helps the
action of the Korein but is helpful in
preventing a return of the unnatural
fat.
It Is a good plan to weigh yourself
once a week so as to keep close check
on what weight you are losing and do
not skip a single dose until your weight
is down to normal. Any druggist can
supply you with these capsules.
enemy was driven headlong from Ms ]
trenches in an incredibly short space j <
of time, in this engagement 4,500
Americans drove 7,000 Mexicans from ,
i their strongholds and pursued them!
with immense slaughter. The results i '
of the battle were gigantic, seven hun-11
dred of the Mexicans being killed and!,
eight hundred taken prisoners. The i
Americans also captured twenty-two l
pieces of artillery and an immense
store of arms and ammunition. All I
this, was effected with the loss of but i
60 men killed and wounded.
The storming of Contreras enabled I
Scott to turn the rear of the position
to San Antonio and open a way to the
village of Churubusco, five miles dis- j
tant. The garrison of San Antonio, ;
therefore immediately evacuated their ;
position without awaiting an assault. !
The Great Battle of Churubusco
i The scattered forces of Mexicans,
driven from Contreras and San An
tonio concentrated upon Churubusco. '
To this point Santa Anna hurried up
his entire disposable force until he
had fully 25,000 men there assembled
to fight with the advancing Americans
the crucial battle in the struggle for
the possession of his capital.
The battle of Churubusco, in the
numbers engaged and the slaughter,
v/ar the greatest battle of the Mexican
war. Pausing not for rest or refresh
ments. the victorious Americans, after
their early morning victory at
Contreras, pressed hard on the heels
of the flying Mexicans. General Scott
hurried up some reinforcements, and,
the attack on Churubusco was deliv
ered without delay.
The town was just more than |
crowded that day with Mexican sol- j
dlers for Santa Anna felt the grasp'
of power slipping from between his
fingers, and hurried up every avail
able man. Every public edifice was j
scaffolded for infantry who also lined J
the windows, roofs and battlements.
The American attack began soon after
the middle of the day. As they!
moved up. a terrific fire was opened
upon them from both infantry and
artillery along the whole extended
line of the enemy. Some of the ad
vanced companies were almost entirely
swept away by the tremendous can-;
nonade they encountered. Torrents !
of flame rolled down from the enemy's
ofrtideations, ravaging our ranks with
a deluge of slaughter. For more than
three hours the tide of American bat
tle was successfully resisted by the
er.emy. until an attack was made so
I impetuously by two of our regiments 1
that, the strongest of the enemy's |
works was carried at the point of the ;
bayonet. Point after point was
gained until, by sunset, all opposition
had ceased and the whole Mexican >
host was in rapid retreat toward the
' inr.er fortifications of the city.
In this action the American army
lost 1.056 in killed wounded and miss- ,
in*. The Mexican loss was 4,000
t killed and wounded and 2,637 prison
j ers who fell in Scott's hands. Included
1 in this loss were thirteen Mexican
' generals and five ex-presidents. With
a revolution quarterly or semiannually
* naturally ex-presidents would be a!
; plentiful article in Mexico. General!
e Scott was wounded during the en-;
. g&gement, but that did not prevent
2 his keeping the saddle and watching
s over every portion of the field to the I
y end of the fight.
" Beginning at Contreras at 3 o'clock
B in the morning and ending Churu
e busco as fell the shades of evening,
e Scott's little army certainly put in a
i pietty full day of fighting on that
1 20th of August, 1847. *
The next day Scott offered an
J armistice to Santa Anna which was
0 gladly accepted. Meanwhile our
t friend. Mr. Trist. who was-still bobbing
n around, tried his hand once more at
1 patching up peace. But he and the
HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
Mexican authorities coudl not agree i
on the boundary line of Texas. The
Mexicans were just as determined in
that :atter as when Texas first es
tablished Its independence. Could
they have brought themselves to ac- !
cept the line of the Rio Grande, they, j
probably might have saved some 600,-
000 square miles of Mexican territory
which they were compelled to relin- j
qulsh a little later.
September 6 General Scott accused
Santa Anna of a violation of the terms
of the armistice in preventing sup
plies from reaching the American
army. Promptly the truce was de
clared at an end, and Immediately the
curtain was rolled up for the last
drama of blood in the ancient home
of the Montezumas.

HOW MINKS ARE LAID AND FIRED
One of the ways in which the bel
ligerent nations lay mines in harbors
and other waters is described in the
July Popular Mechanics Magazine. On
one deck of a vessel are several narrow
(racks supporting the mines, each of
which is mounted on wheels. Each
i.;ine is in turn rolled to the stern, and.
by means of special launching tracks,
is dropped into the sea without tilting.
A. mine of the character described is
made up of three parts; a spherical
floating chamber containing the ex
plosive. etc., an anchor chamber which
is connected with the former by a
cable, and a weighted sounding line.
The length of the latter is equal to the
depth at which the mine is to float.
When the end of the sounding line
strikes bottom the lessening of its pull
throws a pawl which prevents the
drum in the anchor chamber from
paying out more cable to the sphere.
Consequently the latter is drawn under
water to a depth equal to the length
of the sounding line, as the anchor
chamber settles to the bottom. * A
page illustration in the July Popular
Mechanics Magazine depicts graphic
ally this method of mine layinz.
CIiOCK PI,AYS RECORDS
INSTEAD OF CHIMES
A phonograph clock which plays
one or more selections on a phono- j
graphic attachment at any designated!
hour, or hours, has been constructed ]
by an Illinois jeweler. The July Popu- |
lar Mechanics Magazine describes the;
mechanism of the apparatus, which is j
operated by a spring motor; the rec- I
ords. If desired, can be played indepen
dent of the clock. At the back of the
timepiece, attached to the center pin
ion. working In unison with the min
ute hand, is a series of four switches
which can be so set that a different'
record will be played every 15, 30 orj
60 minutes; or the clock can be set
to play only once in 12 hours. When
a large photograph is used the whole
mechanism stands about as high as
a hall clock.
MORE MEN THAN WOMEN
HAVE APPENDICITIS
Surgeons state men are slightly
more subject to appendicitis than
women. Harrisburg people should
know that a few doses of simple buck
thorn bark, glycerine, etc., as mixed
in Adler-l-ka, often relieve or prevent
appendicitis. This mixture removes
, such surprising foul matter that ONE
SPOONFUL relieves almost ANY
CASE constipation, sour stomach or
gat-. The INSTANT, easy action of
j Ad!er-i-ka is surprising. H. C. Ken

RUSH TO FIGHT
UNDER COLONEL
Hundreds Apply For Places in
Roosevelt's Military
Division
New York, June 29.—Hundreds of
messages, by telegraph and some by
telephone, greeted Colonel Roosevelt
when he motored into the city from
Oyster Bay yesterday. The messages
almost without exception contained re
quests to be allowed to join the di
vision of troops which it is reported,
and not denied, that the 'Colonel is
going to offer the government for serv
ice in Mexico. These requests came
from men of all ages and in nearly
every walk of life. Doctors, lawyers,
cx-regular and guard officers, ex-pri
vate soldiers, men who have had the
greatest amount of experience and
those who cheerfully admitted that
they had not. all were eager to loin
the rusTi of recruits in the four T" R.
brigades.
In addition to single applications,
organizations are volunteering in great
numbers. The majority of these are
from organized clubs of horsemen,
who wished to go in the cavalry bri
gades. Also. It Is said, there have
been a number of applicants for hos
pital and for engineering and signal
corps service.
Much Enthusiasm in Evidence
General Wood denied that "he was
aware of the plan to raise this volun
teer division, as did several other
regular officers consulted. Great en
thusiasm was expressed by military
officials, however, for the plan as out
lined. It was declared that the pre
ponderance of cavalry would make it
ideal for work in Mexico, while pre
serving the hitting power with the in
fantry and artillery units. Said one
officer himself experienced in Mexican
campaigning:
"That division, if properly disci
plined, and I for one believe that the
Colonel will have it so, would punch
its way into Mexico City from Vera
Cruz or from the north in the least
time possible. Once started on the
road, its organization will give it the
speed and the drive of a steam engine.

Military Men Approve
It was said by military men that
there was nothing to prevent the or
ganization of such a division as con
templated hy Roosevelt, so far as tlje
technique of a military organization
was concerned. His idea to have two
brigades of cavalry, in itself a division,
added to a brigade of infantry and a
brigade of field artillery, will make his
division what is known as a reinforced
division. It was said that there would
probably be noarer 20,000 men in such
an outfit than 12,000. A rough esti
mate of the unitF. In the organization
would be as follows, it was stated:
5,500 infantry, 5,00 cavalry, 5,000 ar
tillery and approximately 5,000 more
in the complementary forces such as
the aeroplane squadron, the signal
corps detachment. the engineer bat
talions, the hospital corps and the
headquarters troops.
The artillery, it was learned, would
probably include a large number of
mountain guns, as these had been
found of inestimable value in Mexican
work. The field guns will all be of
the standard 8-inch cf.llber and none
of tne heavier cannon would be taken.
Will Plate No Hindrance
The organization of the division is
procera:;-;? aioil'..' quiet lines, but until
war is actually declared or there is a
call for volunteers nothing public in
the way of getting recruits will be at
tempted. As it now stands, it is re
ported that several hundred officers
have been selected ant: given virtually

of anywhere from 25 to 100 men.
Should war break out, these men will
be the nucleus for mobilization of the
division. The Colonel will do nothing
:nore on the organization until there is
a call for volunteers.
It is believed there will be no hin
drance placed in Roosevelt's way to
prevent his going to Mexico br any
where else that will take him frjom the
political campaign now starting;. It
was asserted that it would tike a
