Mrs. Anna E. George, was acquit
ted last Friday, at Canton, (), of the
murder of Geo. I). Haxton, brother
of Mrs McKinley.
Kansas City, Kao,, is having a
severe siege of the small pox. It is
estimated than there is more than 00
cases in the city.
V\ hen Aguinaldo becomes convinc
ed that McKinley was the wrong
fellow to tackle, he will tie just, even
with Billy Bryan.
The following customs and taxes
were collected at the ports mention
ed during April: Manila, #457,004?;
Cebu $30,757, Iloilo $15,534 Tot
a I #1133,893
There is a fortune in night for
the Yankee who will tour this count
ry with Billy Bryan und Agulnaldo
for twin attractions. The small bore
pop papers will do the advertising
free.
If Cleveland, or our Nebraska
statesman would have been in the
white house it would not have been
so, but when Aggy put on the gloves
with a real pugilist he never got a
chance for his second wind.
Colonel Funston, the fighter of the
Twentieth Kansas regiment and now
Known as the llero of Calurapit, is
said to be 5ft 3 in tall and weighs
but 9511)8., is red beaded und has
proven himself to be the nerviest
man in the Philippines.
A speaker at the Jeffersonian buu
ijuet at Topeka, Kan, a short time
agoutlered the following: “With
the Republicans talking about join
ing with England for the purpose of
enforcing the open door policy in
China, it sets one to wondering what
has become of the Republican policy
pf high protection." This coming
from a man with intelligence enough
to speak even at a great democratic
pow wow would impress one with
the idea that he was a sychopbant of
the first water, und only sought to
deceive bis hearers regardless of the
fact that his audience must have
been of the most inteligent of his
party. That there is any analogy be
tween the two propositions would
not even be thought of by a primary
school boy, although there seems
t< be men of high slauding in the
party who endeavor to use such
twaddle to conviuce their bearers of
the inconsistency of the Republican
party. The facts are that the bal
ance of the civilized work! are sus
picious that Russia and France are
conniving to divide the great Chinese
Ktnpire between them at least as far
ascommcicinl advantages go, and
that Russia compel China to grunt
to her a favored nation clause in her
revenue laws that will exclude the
commerce of other natious from the
northern part of the empire, while
France will play the same game in
the southern half, thus securing ihe
great aud grt wiug trade of the eu
tire empire for themselves Kngland
and the I'nited Stales contend that
a System nf duties should lie framed

any country that wishes to trade in

Dkar Motiikh and Father I
Bunin lake lav pen to tell you tliat 1
am well tied Impel his letter will find
you hII enjoy ing Mm heat of health.
I received a letter from you u few
day* iieo lull l did nut answer it he.
fore an we have li eii on the move
bo much Hoil l did n >t get a chance
t<» wiiie. Wo have considerable
guard duty to do. I have been out
of the hospital quite a while now and
a hi well War in still on here. I can
hear firing but it in a good way* off.
We have a great deal of out post
duly to do so you nee we are kept
pretty buisy. Our con.puny lias lost
but one man so fur, we have had a
few wounded, nnd we expect to have
more tigh'iug to do yet. I do not
know when we will get home but it
js not likely that it will be for three
■Booths ytt fni they are (short of men
here at present, but 1 hope it wdl
not be longer than the 4tb of July.
Our b<i)a have very little sickness
among them now, there in some sick
but our sick report in small to wtiat
it has been. The weather is delight
ful here now, it rains sometimes but
not all the time as it did when we
first came here. There is not much
to tell about this country but that it
is the hottest place I ever saw, and
we keep moving around all the time
We camp in our shelter tents and
when we move we carry all our traps
with us on our backs and it is awful
hot marching with all onr things to
sarry. You will have a pretty hard
time to read this letter as we have
no way to write except to lay fiat on
the ground as we are in the field all
the time. I would like to be at
home now to get some of mothers
grub. You can ask father he can
tell you hew it goes to be a soldier
in the field. We get a chicken or a
hog or a buffalo calf once in a while,
but we ure not allowed to forage,
still a chicken is not safe around
camp. When our army charged
through the country they burnt all
the natives bouses they eatne too
and where the country was well set
tied befoielbe war, it is now noth
ing hut a strewn muss of burnt ruins.
Tell the boys at home that l am as
fat as ever and can stand another
campaign juat like this one if neces
sary.

I will endeavor to answer your
letter which came to hand yesterday
1 am still well aud hearty and hope
you are all the same. The weather is
still fine. We have not had any
scrapping to amount to any thing for
some tuna hut there is lots of firing
on the out posts, yet the natives keep
themselves at a safe distance for
when the boys shoot they do so to
kill. There is a good many sharp
shooters in the woods hut they do
very little damage to us. The
natives are very had marksmen and
their bullets generally go high ovor
our beads. We are having au easy
time of it now hut we may bo pul
some where else soon. I suppose you
have heard considerable about our
col >uel, Stotseuberg, the friends of
company L hsd charges preferred
against him and the war department
left it to the regiment to decide and
1 think we will keep him for he is a
scrapper. He fined some of the boys
pretty heavy at Manila, but they de
served it. aud it was absolutely nee
: essary to do so to mukegood soldiers
