 Philadelphia, Sept. 22.-Philadelphia is harboring unawares a woman for whose capture Spain would pay heavy reward. She is a native of the Philip pine Islands, whose courage and bray- cry in behalf of the insurgent cause has resulted in the formation of big expe- dition of arms, ammunition and men, now on the way to Japan, where the filibustering crew will be made up, and will within two months sail for the islands.
 Marina Comenol Orbi Hozae Rizal Is the widow of Dr. Hozae RiZal, who was executed by General Polavieja on Dec. 6, 1896. Dr. Rizal was the acknowi- edged leader of the revolution, which had been smoldering since 1894. AS the president of Manila university he was honored by the residents of the islands.
 Marina Comenol Orbi had been a stu dent in the university. An attachment had sprung up, and on Dec. the girl went into the thick of the battle to meet her lover, and they were married, with band of revolutionists as the only witnesses. The bride returned to Manila, and two days later the young husband was captured.
 The Spanish general visited the pris- oner and offered him life, liberty and passports for himself and wife if he would persuade the insurgents to yield. Rizal refused to buy his freedom at such a price, and he was shot to death by the Spaniards.
 Mrs. Rizal went to Japan and there found sympathy and encouragement. Through her arms and supplies were sent to the insurgents in the Philip pines.

 Law Doss Not Discriminate.

Washington, Sept. 22.-Attorney Gen. eral McKenna has announced his opin- lon in the matter of section 22 of the new tariff law. He holds in effect that goods coming directly into the United States from foreign countries through Canadian ports are not subject to the discriminating duty of 10 per cent. He also holds that foreign goods shipped from countries other than British pos sessions in British vessels are not sub- ject to the discriminating duty.
 Two questions were asked Attorney General McKenna, the first of which was in effect whether the discriminat- ing duty of 10 per cent provided for in section 22 should be assessed against an invoice of tea from China which had arrived at Vancouver, B. C.. in British vessels and thence shipped through Canada to Chicago. The second ques- ton was whether the discriminating du- ty should be assessed against cargo of manganese ore from Chile which re- gently arrived in British ship at Phil adelphia. Both these questions the att torney general answers in the negative.

Elsie has seen nothing of the world, and
how else could be sure that was ever
