Strong Language.

1t is more childishuess to talk
about communicating General
Miles for the technical ofense OF
criticising his superiors 1t is time
for these gentlemen at Washington
to understand that the issue has
risen above the level of their school
boy rules and regulations, and that
the case has been taken out of their
hands. 1t is now before the Amer
lean public, whose just anger will
break their technical discipline as a
pedagogue's ruler breaks in a strong
mans hand. Court-martial Of Gen
eral Miles for action which, what
ever it's motive, makes for reform Of
dangerous abuses and punish ment
OF shameful incapacity would be a
very doubtful experiment for the
strongest administration. 1t would
make him popular hero, aud might
make him formidable competitor
for highest civil honors. This ad-
minis tration is too sensitive to pub.
lie opinion to commit such an error.
Technically the War Department
can put General Miles on trial for
conduct unbeco coming an officer and
gentleman" in the jargon Of the
regulations. Actually the War De
partment itself is on trial before the
bar OF public opinion for profess
sional incapacity undreamed OF be-
fore and almost unthinkable; for
connivance, conscious or inconceiy-
ably stupid, in most shameless and
brutal malfeasance; for neglect Of
duty, either densely ignorant or
deliberately interested, whose con.
sequence was wholesale murder.
This is the indictment against the
War Department. General Miles is
in no way responsible for it. Jealousy
OF his superiors denied him partici.
patton in the war till his trained
capacity and executive forcefulness
were needed to retrieve the blunders
OF political incompetents. But now
] chance has given him the position
OF the peoples attorney to prosecute
the great criminal OF the war. II he
is able to ignore his small personal
wrongs aud Sights and rise to the
level OF his large opportunity, h e
will make the one military reputa-
ton of the war.-New York Com

Admiral Diederiohs and Dewey

AumlraA Oleuerlcns ana OeWey
The following letter, written by
German officer on board the
Kaiserine Augusta, to his brother,
appears in Das Echo:
MARIvELEs, June Ia, 1898.
We are just leaving Mariveles in
order to again proceed to Manila,
(three hours distantl travelling this
time under Clear Decks. The
Princess Wilhelm and the Kormoran
are with us, the Kaiser, having the
Admiral on board, being now before
Manila. The American Admiral in
formed Diederichs that he would
send an officer OF inspection to every
incoming ship, mercantile or men.
of-war ships. You can imagine the
answer Admiral Diederichs gave
him. However, the Yankee declared
he would insist on it. Then, we re-
ceived orders to proceed under Clear
Decks, and in three hours we will
know. Perhaps the Augusta will re.
ceive her baptism; pity, most OF our
men renew. l hope l can continue
this letter to. day; if not, God be
with us.
1t may not come TO this, but one
has to be prepared for everything;
just now, fms.
Dear brother:-The m sitter has run
to sand, the Yankee did not n owe.
We went flag high, guns loaded
and torpedoes in tubes, the upper
deck free of ventilatories and every
thing movable, boats in, etc. We
steamed quite slowly e knots so as
to give the Americans plenty OF
time, and only after we had passed
them did we go in full steam TO-
ward the flagship. The temper of
the men was splendid; everybody
longed to go into fire with the
Augusta. In battle she must be
beautiful ship. Her travelling capa-
city, her fine torpedo tubes,-let me
tell you, l had queer feeling as the
red tops were screwed on to the
yellow torpedoes, they looked like
dipped in blood, and if one considers
what they contain, and when you
know their effect and the Is cent?

When the steamship Cottage City

up at Valparaiso.
They were Jack O'Neil of San Fran

tie, Australia, to Panama when the
bark sprung a leak, }" said O'Neil, at
the Sailors home, Captain Newhall
put us at the pumps, and he soon con-
cluded that we would have to run for
Easter island. This island, mind, is
away off the coast of Chile, about
$500 miles from anywhere.
'"The captains idea was to run the
bark ashore, so he wasn't particular
what course he took, and, as hard luck
would have it, we banged into reef.
That settled it, and we barely sue
ceeded in getting ashore with our
lives.
Easter island is about twenty miles
long and eight or nine miles wide. 1t
is inhabited by simple and hospitable
lot of Kanakas-about 180 of them in
all. There is king at the head, and
there are three or four chiefs or Off
GERS, who seem to hold Office by right
of age.
''The king took fancy to me. He
unceremoniously conducted me to his
house, rude cabin of sticks, dried
mud and thatch. The captain and the
rest of the crew had to put up with
the homes of the ordinary citizens,
but we all had about the same amount
of beef and sweet potatoes to eat.
These are the only foods we saw on
the island, and as the cattle run wild
and have scant pasturage the beef is
pretty lean. They have only one meal
day on the island, and that comes
about five o'clock in the afternoon.
''By one of those funny freaks that
always happen at shipwrecks, chest
containing paint had foated ashore.
l painted the kings house for him red,
white and yellow, with trimmings of
tar. His barefooted highness thought
that was out of sight. He had an
extra dinner that day, just as they do
at weddings and funerals, and he
never stopped chuckling.

us to Valparaiso. The king and all
the subiects-men, women and chill
dren-s shouted in lamentation as we
came away. San Francisco Exam

There are various insects among the

but none of the insects are poisonous.
There is large spider about the size

one enormous variety of boa, called the
Maia, of immense strength. 1t is per-

capable of swelling itself out to nearly
