Of o majority Of the American psople that

Will be Confined There.
Miss Harietta E. Green, one of
the attendants at the Weston In
sane Asylum arrived in the city for
the purpose of taking Mrs. Ed
Craben, of Catherine street, to that
institution. Mrs. Craven was taken
violently insane last week and
since that time has been under the
care of friends at her home.
She became so bad that it was
decided the best thing to do was to
have her confined in an iustitu
ton of the state and for that pur-
pose Miss Green came over yester.
day. 1t was the intention to take
her away last evening but for some
reason it was not done until this
morning. Mr.. Craven accompanied
her part of the way.
This is indeed d very sad case
Mr.. and Mrs. Craven are we'll
known and we'll liked by all who
know them and in this affection
Mr.. Craven and family have the
sympathy of host of friends.

Nagging, scolding and furnishing
a child for every little mistake or
failure to perform all that is re-
CURED, seld ON does any good to
those concerned. 1t has a tendency
to make the delinquent hard-headed
and sullen, and destroy all kind
feeling between the parties con-
cerned. We know that those who
deal with youths and children are
often sorely tried, made nervous
aud "out of sorts" at the mistakes
and delinquencies that constantly
happen, but nevertheless, kindness
patience and forbeatance will in
time accomplish wonders in over
coming the evils that ought to be
corrected. Said an old philosopher
in speaking of a parents duty to
his chIldren: Never tire, never
grow cold, be patient, sympathetic,
tender ;look upon the budding flower
and opening heart; hope always,
like Goo; love always-this is duty
to children" And this kind doc
triue covers great deal of ground,
and is we'll for all OF us to remem-
Der who deal with the young.

New York. Nor. "a dispatch to the
Herald from Washington says.
Major Simpson, Of General Me4Titt's
staff, has just returned from Manila. and
though personally he does sot seem to
fear serious Trouble with the force Of
Aguinaldo, he says there Is distinct senti.
ment among the United States troops
that there may be trouble and mere
troops may be needed.
Againaldo's force is reckoned at about
5000 and Major simpson freely admits
that the rebels are in control Of the island
Of LuzOa. The recent attack on TO llo by
the forces Of Ag1ainaldo recalled to him
that Aguinaldo had some transports and
about 500 Of the IAi1on troops had been
carried to the island Of Panay.
On the island Of Mindanao the situation
il not understood Is the Inhabitants are
mostly MohAmnedanS Little or no in
veStigation Of the situation there has
been made by our army. Pack in the
hills of Lnson many tribes are almost
uncivilised and have never felt the icrce
o. either the insurgents OF Spaniards.
To ccmPlicate the situation the priests
are now intriguing to make the rebels
Disseminated with AguinaldO and to set
up another insurgent chief. Should al
the islands pass into the hands of the
United States, the situation might be one
Of surprises
The fact that Aguinaho's troops at

son, shows that AgainAldo has not &C.
guessed in the decision involved in the
fall Of Manila.
