Stowe by Il. Wasnuk of the 1st Regi-
ment, S. ID. Volunteers. 1t has been
in type for week, but the crowded
condition of the REGISTERS columns
precluded the possibility of its publi-
cation. 1t will be read with interest.

The Chief Is in receipt Of copy of
the American Soldier, Vol. ], No. l,
the first American newspaper pub
lished in Manila. 1t was sent to us
through the kindness of Earle Stevens.
The paper is published in one of the
native printing offices. Its typo
graphical appearance is good under
the circumstances, but not up to the
standard maintained by the average
South Dakota newspaper. The paper
contains fair amount of advertising
and is very interesting document
