LONDON, August 2s.-The Philip
pine islands committee in Europe has
addressed a letter to President McKin-
ley regarding the appeals made to him
BY high Roman Catholic eccleslastlcs in
America to protect the religious orders
An the Islands. The expulsion OF the
friars. the committee contends, Is "a
necessary antecedent to moral santa
ton. The letter names particularly the
archbishop of Manila and the bishops of
Nneva sagoyla and Nueva Caseres, The
committee urges President Mckinley to
aid the Fillplnos to suppress the im-
morality OF the dIabolIcal institutions
t0stered By these monks" and the let
ter concludes as follows; Your name
can never be associated with that OF
the fflars; and the sense OF right of the
noble nation at whose head you are
placed will never permit the ever-vic-
torlous and humanitarian Stars and
Stripes to protect them"

that the train was not hurled off into

would have been appalling. The rear

WHEN NAPOLEON WALKED

An Incident of the Memorable Re-
treat From Moscow.
It was on Nov. 25, at about Z o'clock
in the morning, when we saw the head
of the column. The first we saw were
generals, few of whom were on horse
back, but the majority on foot. The
latter painfully dragged themselves
along, almost all having their feet fro
zen and bound up in rags and pieces of
sheepskin and dying Of hunger. We
then saw what was left of the cavalry
of the guard. The emperor came next
on foot, with stick in his hand. He
was muffled up in large capote lined
with fur and wore on his head an
amaranthine velvet cap edged with
black foxskin. On his right marched,
also on foot, King Murat; on his left,
Prince Eugene, viceroy of Italy; then
Marshals Berthier, prince of Neufchate tel
Ney, Mortier, Lefebvre and other mar
shals and generals, whose corps had
been partly destroyed.
They were followed by 700 to 800
officers and subof6c GERS, marching in or
der and bearing in the greatest silence
the eagles of the regiments to which
they had belonged and that had so often
led them to victory. They were the
remnant of over 60, 900 men. My poor
Picart, who had not seen the army for
month, gazed on silently, but his con-
vulsive movements showed only too
we'll what he felt. I saw big tears roll
down the cheeks and fall on his mus
tache, from which icicles were hang
ing. Then, turning to me, ''Really,
compatriot, I do not know whether I
am asleep or awake; weep because l
have seen our emperor marching on
foot, stick in his hand, he that was so
great and who made US so proud''
