Cavite. Aug. 4-Your correspondent had
today. the pleasure of an interview with
con Emilio Aguinaldo, head of the Phil
lppine insurgents.
Aeuinaldo is the smallest fighting ma
chine in the world. BY the side of a man
oe ordinary height he looks like boy;
standing alongside a tall man he is a
midget, Not only is he very short, but
very slight and dark as well. He is 1.-THE,
aoile graceful and free of movement like
q boy of IA A mere STRIPPING you would
ieclare him.
Aguinaldo bids fair to become an inter-
national insect When other nations are
ouieting down he is getting ready to
aght. He has fought so long that he has
,orne seasoned with smoke as other men
,eoome seasoned with food, and he will
no more give 1t up than they will give up
dining.
\ the old town of Cavite there stands
house which was the former home of
rich native The house is situated on
allie de Arsenal, which is the main ave
me of CavIte. 1t was once the finest
dwelling in the town, but for some time
mast it has stood deserted because no one
could afford to hire 1t.
Agulnaldo took possession of this roomy,
rich old mansion Immediately upon his
arrival in Cavite, and there he is now es
tabished. He calls it his headquarters,
and he maintains there something like

my questions he would reply Nothing
in a sturdy voice which told me that it
would be useless to urge him.
Our talk was short. Aguinaldo suddenly
arose and motioning to the guard, inti-
mated that he had pressing business out
side, and before ] could more than say
goodbye he had disappeared by the same
door through which he had entered. 1t
was an abrupt dismissal but not an I'M
friendly one.
The guard then approached and behind
him appeared servant, bearing a tray
with fruit and wine. A small table was set
in front of me and the little repast was
spread out by the servant. Seeing that
all was meant in the most friendly fash
ion, 1 partook of it, and as I ate I glanced
around the room.
1t was evidently the generals library.

New York Sept. Again is the poor
American millionaire called upon to spend
his dollars.
No sooner is the war over-which took
thousands from him-than he is forced
into another contest, this time for the de-
Tense of the Americas Yachting Cup,
which is now held by this country, and
which he cannot allow to pass out of his
hands without a struggle.
Not only is the millionaire interested In
this great cup battle, but the whole coun-

$50 a month on an average. Besides tbs
salaried list there Is large amount al
ways needed for repairs New spars and
new sails are often necessary, and there
are hundred other incidentals that must
be paid for.
TO keep the crew contented, and to re-
tain it's members all the season, a bonus
of s. u month for the season is generally
paid to each sailor who has been faithful
during the six months.
The best American sailors for yachting
purposes come from the Great South Bay
of Long Island. They are glorious sea-
men. They are full of ambition. That
section undoubtedly gives US the smartest
Of our boatmen. These Long Islanders
are less avarcous than the Scandlnavians
and do not demand as much money. They
will race for the love of it, Perhaps one
reason for their modesty in price Is the
fact that they have homes upon Long
Island which their people have owned for
centuries, and they do not need as much
money as the foreigner. They are In such
demand that the owners of sloops have
20 keep them under contract all winter to
form a nucleus OF next years crew.
The matter of personal incidentals, such
as dinners to the coming English guests
and the entertainment of other distin-
guished strangers, Is a large one, and q
snug appropriation must be made for It
unless, as is often the case, the million-
aires personally put their hands down in
their pockets and pay for the dinners in a
lump sum. These personal entertainments
have cost ]. Pierpont Morgan and August
Belmont what would. to an ordinary man,
be a fortune for life, during the past few
years.
When the race is run and the boat final

she has cost is so large that it would ap-

on TO Cavite, and he carries with him
all that he has in the world.
In the center of the room was the only
concession to actual comfort. IL was in
the shape Of an old grand piano. several
feet higher than those of modern make,
and behind 1t stood an old-fashioned piano
chair with a back, Possibly these be-
longed to the old grandee VINO had form
ery inhabited the house, and Aguinaldo,
when he took possession of il, had fallen
heir to the piano also
1t was in this little town twenty-six
years ago that Aguinaldo was born. His
parents, clever Japanese couple, went
there to earn a living, and the boy first
saw the light I'm the old town over which
he now rules as absolute commander
Possibly his boyhood days were spent
peerins into the gardens which he little
thought some day to possess.
There were hat racks, easy chairs
and foot stools of sufficient abundance,
and the rooms somehow had the appear
ance of comfort so noticeable in Japan
ese home and so lacking in European
households Each chair was q bamboo,
soft and yielding, and the hat rack was
low and the mirrors broad.
On my way out the guard saluted and
the chamberlain of the household conduct
ed me entirely through the line and bowed
low at the outside gate.
The gossip in Cavite is that Aguinaldo
and his followers are preparing to take
the Philippines from Spain They will not

rule the Philippines with the Americans,
but they will not Tolerate the Spanish. By
his looks and actions Aguinaldo told me

the back was a beveled edged mirror OF
European manufacture, and there were
several small drawers in the front. This
was Aguinaldo's work table. on the top
lay a package of Japanese writing paper
and the implements of writing.
In q further corner Of the room were
two large, strong iron boxes, which were

Another EIOnOred Citizen
PoccaS AmaU

Walter A. Bull died at the resi-
dence of II. Livingtone, in the
Horse Spring Coulee, near Loomis,
Okanogan county, Wash, on Mar.
4, 1898. Mr. Bull was born June
20, 1898, in Albany, New York.
When ten years old he went to Ra
cine, Wis, where he lived about
ten years. He was railroad con
tractor and did a vast amount of
work on the Union Pacific when it
was being constructed. He left
the U. p. Co., when they reached
Odgen, and brought his wagons
and outfit across the country to aid
in building the road from Portland
to Tacoma IN 1869. He came as
far on the road as this valley, and
concluded to locate here which he
did July 9TH, 1869, and has re-
manned here ever since until year
or so ago, when he went up into the
Okanogan country for the purpose
of trying to regain lost health. At
one time Mr.. Bull was the largest
land owner in the county and the
famous Bull ranch near town will
for many years to come keep his
name fresh in the minds of the
people. He engaged in the mer-
chandise business in this city in
an early day, carrying general
stock Of goods in his store, which
stood ON the south side of the street
opposite the clothing store of G. l..
Collins. His ranch was used as
hay ranch, the product of which has
always found a good market. He
gave employment to a large num-
Der of men and was always
prominent figure in every enter
prise calculated to build up this
city and surrounding country.
Some years ago misfortune over
took him and like most large in
vestors, he over reached himself,
becoming involved and losing
great deal of property. He was
always a personal friend of we
editor, and contributed largely to
our success in getting a strong
foot hold with THE DAWN in this
city, also contributing $50 each to-
ward establishing The Kittitas
Standard and the Localizer, and
gave some toward establishing the
Capital.
He leaves a wife and several
children, among whom we mention
John, Lewis. Charley and Grant,
all of whom are courteous, and
highly respected young men Of the

If every man could live an out door life,
passing his time with gun and fishing rod
and canoe, there would be less illness in
the world. Unfortunately, the demands of
modern civilization will permit very few
men to live this ideal, healthful life.
Many men have to pass the day shut up
in offices and stores, and the nights in close
apartments in crowded cities They get
little outdoor exercise. One of the results
of this unhealthy, sedentary living is the
awful prevalence of that dread disease
consumption. One-sixth of all the deaths
each year are due to this relentless enemy

BASEBALLISTS DISSOLVE.
Topeka Association Ceases Doing
Business This Evening.

The, Topeka Base Ball association will
probably go out of existence tonight. The
game between the Topeka and Wichita
teams this afternoon will be the last one
played under its auspices.
Topeka will be treated to the first Sun
day ball game in it's history tomorrow aft
ernoon, but the game will, be arranged
between the two teams and the associa-
ton will have nothing to do with it.
While the association will disband to-
night. the Topeka team will probably hold
together and play ball on the cooperative
plan, the manager of the club arranging
for games and dividing the receipts equal
ly among the players. Th2 AtchisOn team
intends to reOrganize on this basis and in
is Manager Fears present intention ITO
hold the Topeka club together in this
way.
The association has been endeavoring to
collect the money subscribed by admirers
of base ball in Topeka, and have succeed
ed fairly well. The collections will be
continued next, week, and if the entire
amount subscribed can be collected, all
business against the association can be
paid without the members having to suf-
fer individually.
The receipts of the games played in this
city have to be at least $50 to pay ex-
penses, and the receipts of the Thursday
and Friday games We're respectively SIS

FIGHT ON M'NALL.
Connecticut Fire Insurance Co. TAX
ing Evidence to Combat His
Ruling.

New York, Aug. 13.-The Herald to-
day says:
Evidence given yesterday in the su-
preme court by E. F. BeddaIl, reident
manager of the Royal Insurance COM
pany and Charles G. Smith, secretary
of the German-American Insurance
company, of this city, will be used in
connection with the disputes between
the Kansas insurance department and
insurance companies doing business
in Kansas. Webb McNall, superinten-
dent of insurance of Kansas recently
sent men to examine the books of the
various companies. Some companies
permitted the examinations and others
would not. Agents presented themselves
at the offices of the Connecticut Fire
Insurance company last month, but J.
D. Brown, the president, informed them
that his company would expect them to
pay the expense of the examination. He
said, however, that there was no need
of any examination, as he was willing
to answer all questions with reference
to the affairs of the company. Word
was sent to Kansas and McNan reVOlx-
ed the license of the company. The
company obtained from Judge Foster
a temporary injunction restraining any
interference with its business until
hearing could be had. Mr.. Beddall in
the hearing yesterday testified that in
December last, Judge C. E Foote, of
Topeka, Kansas, called at the office of
his company as the representative of
McNall. He spent about Is days in the
New York offices and two days each in
the offices in Philadelphia and Louis
vile and when he had concluded his la
bors he put in a bill for s517 for his ser
vices, which was paid Mr.. Smith testi-
fed that on July two persons rep
resenting themselves as D. o. McCray
and E. w. Tatman, with letters of in
PRODUCTION from Mr.. McNall, called at
the Offices of the company, saying that
they had been sent to examine it's af-
fairs. They were informed that the
company would prefer to have the mata
ter delayed q few days and they re-
turned again on July II and pursued
the examination for three days when

it would rather perjure themselves than
''squeaI' on the guilty ones.
Along near midnight the crowd be-
came very noisy and there were fire.
Quent fights. The disturbance was not
kept indoors, but was taken to the
streets adjacent.
At a few minutes past midnight af-
fairs took a serious turn. Knives were
drawn and revolvers. Several shots
were exchanged, and some cutting was
done, but no arrests were made for as
soon as the shooting occurred the crowd
dispersed and things were quiet when
the police arrived. 1t was learned that
two colored volunteers received flesh
wounds from knives, but none of the
bullets took effect.
Sergeant Tim Donovan said today:
LAS soon as those fellows got their
money they started up town and began
spending it for beer and whisky and
cider. A great many of them bought
cheap revolvers. One Of the officers told
me that they would be searched at
camp, but I doubt if they did it,
when we pulled Pearly Atkinson,
the colored jointist in Smoky Row,
there were a lot of drunken soldiers
there. Then that row in the shot tower
was another case. Unless there is some
thing done about this there will be
trouble
Atkinson's place was at 106 North
Kansas avenue. 1t was on the second
floor. Atkinson was arrested on the
charge of maintaining a nuisance.
