MANILA AND THE PHILIPPINES

The Herald has arranged for distrib-
uting some very interesting views of
scenery in the Philippine islands, as
will be noted by the advertisement in
another part of the paper.
These views were made from photo
graphs taken by the secretary of the
American consul at Manila, just be-
fore the war with Spain broke out.
The following letter to the publishers
from Secretary Long shows how well
the books are appreciated:
Navy Department, Washington,
June &C. 1898.
Gentlemen am in receipt, with your
compliments, of the pamphlets contain
ing photographs of Manila and the
Philippine islands. The photographs
are the best 1 have seen, and l have
been much interested in looking them
over. Please accept my cordial thanks
for your courtesy in sending them to
me. Very truly yours,

joins the Democracy because he be-
lieves it is the party of the people.
His own explanation of the change
is given in the following statement:
For years have been considered by
Republicans as doctrinely unsound, be-
cause l really believe that this should
be a government of the people, by the
people and strictly for the people, This
was the reason, without doubt, why
was not permitted by the machine to
make a single speech in the state of
Illinois during the campaign of 1885,
though this year, under date of July
g. the Republican state central COM
mittee honored me with a request to
take the stump for them.
''Of late years the tendency of the
Republican party has been to fasten
this government under the control of
trusts and monopolies.
THE tendency of the Democratic
party has been to curtail the power of
money and place the government in
the hands of the mass of the people. l
not only believe that this should be so,
but l also firmly believe that the only
thing that can prevent this country
from being wealth-ridden on the one
hand or mob ridden on the other, is
that the government shall be in the
hands of the plain people.
''All my life my sympathies have been
with the people (having been taught
this by the two men 1 honor above all
others, my father and Mr.. Lincoln),
and today 1 believe my proper place
is in the Democratic party, and there 1
shall abide

WOMEN. IN UNIFORM.
Plucky Girls Who Served In the
Ranks In the Civil War.

Boston Herald: Many and thrilling
are the tales told of the heroism of
women both of the north and south
during the war of the rebellion. The
women of the war may be divided into
three classes. The first included the
women who served as nurses in hos
pitfalls and on the field of battle. OF
these much has already been written.
The second class was that very useful
body of scouts and spies, whose dress
and actions were according to circum-
stances They appeared as stylish
DANES, surrounded by admirers, in the
morning, and in the evening as disSi-
pated youths, dropping into billiard
rooms and like resorts to detect the
plots of the enemy
Those who. fired by burning zeal to
serve their country, actually donned
uniform and shouldered a musket to
serve the cause formed the third class
of women of the war. OF these there
were many more than is generally sup
posed. AS far back as 1863 the Mem
phis Argus published a paragraph of
news headed: Death of a Cavalry Sol
der Who Proved to Be Woman" 1t
read:
"A short time since a soldier belong
ing to Missouri cavalry regiment was
entered at the 'Overton hospital for
treatment for fever contracted in camp.
The soldier died, but not before it had
been revealed that the supposed young
man was a woman. She had followed
her lover into the army. and to be near
him had willingly braved the dangers
of battlefield and borne the hardsh:ps
and exposures of campaign life. Her
years could not have been more than
20"
An intensely interesting story is that
of another who became a soldier "all
for love" Her name was Annie Lilly
bridge OF Detroit, Mich. In the spring
OF 1862 she was employed in a dry
goods store in Detroit, where she made
the acquaintance of a lieutenant of the
Twenty first Michigan infantry, and an
intimacy sprang up between them.
They corresDonded for some time AID
became warmly attached.
The thought of being parted from
her lover made her so unhappy that she
resolved to share hit danger and be
near him. Purchasing male attire she
enlisted in Captain Kayanaghs COM
pany of the Twenty-first regiment, and
to keep her secret from all,
rot even the object of her affections,
who met her daily, being aware of her

His reason is disgust at the Republic

The change from Republicanism to
enthusiastic Democracy came sudden

headquarters of the Cook county Dem

nounced that in the future he would be
Democrat and that he had forever

Mr. Douglas bases his change in

presence. Annie left with the regiment
for Kentucky and passed through all
the dangers and trials of camp life, en-
dured long marches and slept on the
ground without a murmur. She be-
came a favorite in the regiment, and
Colonel stephens frequently detailed
her as regimental clerk. When on
picket duty she received a severe
wound in the arm, and was sent 10 the
hospital at Louisville. After several
months she was discharged and sent
home, as her arm was stiffened and
rendered useless.
A brave girl was Miss Mary Wise.
who served truly for the love of coun-
try and after the war became the wife
of Sergeant Forehand of New Hamp-
shire.
Another young woman, Miss Sarah
Taylor, tarried among the tents of East
Tennessee, determined to share with
her male relatives and friends the dan
gers and fatigue of a military cam
paign. donned a blue chapeau, a highly
finished regulation sword and silver
mounted pistols, mounted her horse and
accompanied the regiment to reinforce
Colonel Gerrart. Cap in hand, she gall
lOped along the lines, cheering on the
men, who regarded her as their guar
dian angel, who was to lead them to
victory.
In the spring of 1863 a captain arrived
at Louisville, KY, accompanied by
young soldier. apparently II years OF
age, who Immediately attracted the at
tention of Colonel Mundy as being ex-
ceedingly sprightly and intelligent, and
he detailed him for duty at the bar
racks. A few days later the startling
fact was discovered that the supposed
young man was woman, the fact be-
ing established by soldier who was
raised in her town. Her story is one OF
interest.
Frank Martin Cher assumed name)
was born in Bristol, Pa, and was edu-
Gated at the convent in Wheeling, w.
Va, where she acquired many accom-
plishments. After leaving the convent
and bidding farewell to her parents she
enlisted in the Second Tennessee cav
airy and accompanied the Army of the
Cumberland to Nashville. She was in
the heat of battle at MurfreesbOrO, and
was severely wounded in the shoulder,
but fought CALAMITY, and waded Stone
river into MurfreesborO on the memOra-
bic Sunday on which the Union forces
were driven back. In having her
wounds dressed her sex was discovered
and made known to General ROSecrans.
The general was favorably impressed
with her bravery, but would not allow
her to remain in the service, and per-
sOnally superintendent the arrange
ments for her safe transmission to her
parents.
Frank was only Is years old. quite

beautiful figure. She was an excellent

position of bugler in the regiment.

of dark brown hair in luxuriant curl.

ing leader. Prior TO her command with

MICHAEL DEFEATS TITUS.
New Yorker Was Handicapped By
Slow Pacemakers.

Baltimore, Md, Aug. 11.-After three
postponements necessitated by the ele-
ments, Jimmy Michael, the little Welsh
champion, and Fred Titus of New York,
met tonight at the Coliseum in their
15-mile paced bicycle race. Michael
won easily by about 20 yards. 1t was
the general impression from the start
that Michael would win. but early in
the contest the sympathy of the 1000
spectators went almost unanimously to
the New York boy. While the latter
was passed badly. he rode hard and
made several strong bids for the race
On several occasions, his pacemakers
lost him entirely and Titus was COM
PEELED to take hold behind his oppon-
ent's workers. On the other hand,
Michaels men were as smooth as clock
work. Michael had the advantage also
in having a triplet among his PAGERS,
while Titus depended entirely upon
tandems. Time-2S:4S Is. The fastest
