division, as to operations about Manila,

| General Anderson thus describes the
attack on Manila which was under his
| immediate command, subject to orders
from General Merritt, whose headquar-

shots fell short, but the range was soon
found, and then the fire became evil

General Macarthur to open on block house
No. IA and begin the attack. AT the
same time several guns of the Utah bat
teries opened fire on the enemys works
in front of the I'd brigade, and two guns
on the right Of this brigade opened an
oblique fire toward block house No. H.
II ordered the 1st California, which
was the leading regiment in service, to
go forward and report to General
Greene. Going to the reserve telegraph,
received a message from General Nc
Arthur that his fire on the block house
was effective but he was enfiladed from
the right. I knew he wished to push the
insurgents aside and put in the Astor
battery. l then authorized him to at

23d regular infantry and 18th Minnesota
had carried the advance line of the en-

gun of the Utah battery lending most
effective assistance.
In the mean time the Colorado reg

of the enemy's line, and the 18th infant
ry and Sd heavy artillery acting as in
fantry, advanced and passed over the
enemy's works in their front without
opposition. General Macarthur was heav-
lily engaged at the second line Of the de-
fense near Singalon.

assist him was to press our success on
the left. l therefore directed General
Greene to connect, If possible, with Nc
Arthur by sending regiment to the
right; but the enemy seemed deter

regiments were the only ones available.
Soon the men from Nebraska and Wyo-

the firing did not cease as the Spanish
soldiers at the front did not seem to be
notified of the surrender. Soon report
came that Singalon had been carried
and that the brigade was advancing on

Apt Quotation.

There is sometimes more wit in the application to the business in hand of words already. chosen for another pur- pose than in the invention of an appro- priate phrase. Bishop Whipple, accord ing to The Church News, loved to tell this story:
 A deyout colored preacher, whose heart was aglow with missionary zeal, gave notice to his. congregation that i'll the evening an offertory would be taken for missions and asked for liberal gifts. A selfish, we'll to do man in his congre- gation said to him before the service:
 'Yer gwine to kill dis church ef yer goes on saying give, give. No church can stan it. Yer gwine to kill it. ;
 After the sermon the colored minister said to the people:
 Brother Jones told me l was gwine to kill dis here church eff kep' a-askin yer to give, but, my brethren, churches doesn't die dat way. Eff any body knows of church dat died cause it's been givin too much to de Lord, I'll be very much obliged eff my brother will tell me whar dat church is, for Ize gwine to visit it. and I'll climb on de walls ot dat church under de light of de moon, and cry, Blessed am de dead dat die in de Lord.
