A PHILIPPINE BOY.

Charles B. Howard contributes to
st. Nicholas story of the Philippines,
under the title OF "Juanito and Jefe."
Mr.. Howard says:
On an obscure little island in the
Philippine group stands an obscure lit
tie native village; and in this village
there stood, few years ago, certain
hut, built, like the others, entirely of
bamboo, and matched with dried nipa
leaves. In this hut there dwelt choc-
olate-colored family, consisting of Ma
riano Pelasquez, his wife, and sturdy
11-year-old boy, Juanito by name.
Old Mariana had lived as boy in
one of the large seaports. and there

When the patriotic populace ofSquan
Creek discovered that none of the Off
GERS of the Terribes would lead the
company to the front there was call
for Adinabad Spellman to rise to the
emergency. His grandfather fell at
Bunker Hill and his father fell in
Mexico, and it was generally supposed
that he himself was willing to perish
at a moments notice. 1t didn't turn
out that way. however. He was limpin'

The correspondent of this paper ID

"In the first place, every reader will

It wasn't that Squan Creek lacked
patriots or patriotism in the late civil
war, but that sickness and circum-
stances and lots of other things were
agin us. Zemida Barnes had been cap
tain of the Squan Creek Terribles for
five years, and everybody who had seen
him wave his sword and shout: For
ward march," said that he would sure
iy prove an awful fighter on the battle
field. When it was sort o believed that
the war was comm, he marched the
Terribes around back of the school
house, ordered the drums to be beat
and the flags to wave, and then
stepped out and said:
"This day offer my life to my coun-
try. As many of you as will foller me
to war an fight an fight till victory
is won will step forward one pace"
Every Terrible stepped. and there
were wild cheers from the spectators.
Zemidi was picked up and carried
around on mems shoulders, and lots
of folks said that if he lived through
the war he would come home bigger
man than George Washington. There
was bonfres in the street that night,
with shootin' and yellin'. Deacon
Spooner had ben mad at Zemidi Barnes
for shootin' his dog. and folks said
they would never make up. The pro-
ceedin's of that day was too much for
the deacon, however. Jest at dark he
went up to Zemidi on the street and
held out his hand and said:

of the feet. Inasmuch as this naval
commander has made no mistake,
there is no reason why he should be
censured. That much every reasona.
BILE man will acknowledge. Therefore,
Admiral Sampson should not be looked
upon with disdain.
"In the next place, Admiral Samp.
son has been successful in the dispo'
sition of his vessels. He has been sue
.cessful in looking after the health oil
the men of his fleet, while patiently
watching the enemy by day and by
night. 1t is wise commander who
can have always in mind the health
and comfort of the men for whose lives
he is in every sense responsible. Thus
we reach a point where Admiral Samp
son deserves commentator.

circumstances he restated his orders
that, if the Spanish feet should under.
take to escape, the American feet
should close in and attack the enemy
Having thus performed his duty, Ad'
miral Sampson sailed away to meet
the commander of the land forces.
THUS every duty was faithfully per-
formed by him. There is absolutely
no ground for criticism of this naval
commander. During his absence on
this important and patriotic duty, in
the interest of his country, the Span
ish fleet unexpectedly came out of the
harbor and tried to escape. Instantly,
in obedience to SIMPSONS orders, the
cruisers and battleships closed in on
the enemy and vigorously attacked
him. The entire Spanish feet was de.

Looping to the sound of cannon, Admiral
Sampson fastened to rejoin his COM

the complete triumph of his fleet,
which acted under his carefully de-
tailed orders. He was not in the ac-

of that nature. He did not get into
the fight, solely because his orders
were so we'll obeycd that the work was

credit upon his plans and discipline.
