AGUINALDO's ACTIONS HOSTILE.
SIGNALING HIS SOLDIERS. IN
MANILA TO RETURN TO MALALOS.

Something is on ever since the ar
rival of the news that the peace COM
mission had come to definite settle
ment and that the United States were
to hold the Philippines through the
tivity has been going on in the insur-
gent army. Aguina1do makes no
secret OF bis hostile attitude towards
the Americans and is rapidly pre-
pairing to make some hostile move
ment
Els method OF getting his scattered
soldiers together is by the use of the
Illuminated Chinese balloon the light
of which remains very bright at an
elevation of thousand feet. Two of
these signals were seen floating over
the noun tain last night.

Mrs. J. @. Showalter, whose husband
is one of the musicians in the 18th in
fantry band, has received from him
quite lot of Manila literature. There
is poem ''The Volunteer" and the
proclamation of Ger eral Merritt. in
the English, Spanish, and Filipino
languages The Filipino language is
not at all similar to the Spanish, as one
might suppose.
A daily paper called THE Amer
ican," under date of December %,
1898, contains the following:
'Colonel Lazelle, formerly COM
handing the 18th infantry, now on the
retired list, arrived in this city recent
ly. He made the long journey from
the United States to place a head
stone over the grove OF his son, Lieu
tenant Lazelle, who died on his way
here from San Francisco "
The same paper speaks OF a brother
of George L. Hoyt, of the firm of Hoyt
and Bass. as follows:
O''Major Henry F. Hoyt. chief
surgeon, U. S. volunteers, having re-
ported in obedience to paragraph 10,
Special Orders No. 251, C. s., headquar-
tiers of the army, will report in person
to the commanding general, second di-
vision, for assignment to duty as chief
surgeon of that division, relieving
Major w. D. Crosby, brigade surgeon
U. S volunteers. from that duty"
That the actions of Aguinaldo, in
attacking the American troops were
expected is shown by the following
article, taken from the "American
Soldier" newspaper published
there, dated Decem Der 9Th.

CAVITE NEWS.

HARD TIMES OF THE 18th INFANTRY,
Ever since arriving in Manila, tn
18th infantry has had a hard time of it
and has experienced few of the snaps
which make a soldiers life agreeable.
We did not get quarters until 30 days
after the city was taken, and during
at time We slept I'd fl i haq'Eda cs65bt,iss
stones. The result was large sick
and death list, which will:give any or
ganiZation the blues.
Then at last when we got comfort
ably CHARTERED an order came for US to
move to Cavite. On Oct. 22nd we float
ed down the Pasig, across the bay,
and took possession of the dreamy old
town, 30 rich in moss covered antiqui-

WHAT DID THE PRIVATES DO?
[Received by Soldier BOY From His Sister,
Dear Brother:

Dear Brothers:
Our allies eem with daring deeds.
And books are filed with fame;
Brass bands will play and cannons roar
In honor OF the name ;
OF men who he'd commissions, and
Were honest, brave and true;
But still the question comes to me,
What did the private do?
Who were the men to guard the camp
When the foes were lowering round,
Who dug the graves of comrades dear,
Who laid them in the ground?
Who sent the dying message home,
To those who never knew?
If the officers did all this,
What did the privates do?
Who were the men to fill the place.
OF comrades slain in strife;
Who were the men to risk their own
To save a comrades life?
Who was it lived on sailed pork
And bread too hard to chew?
If officers did this alone
What did the privates do?
Who lay in pits on rainy nights
All eager for the fray:
Who marched beneath a scorching sun
Through many a toilsome day?
Who paid the sutler double price,
And scanty rations drew?
If officers get all the praise,
Then what did the privates do?
All honor to the brave old boys
Who rallied at The call
Without regard to name or rank,
We honor one and all,
They're iIassipg over, one by one,
And soon they'll all be gone
To where truth will surely show
Just what the boys have done.

Cavite is slumb boring with the sleep
of centuries and offers no amusements
to the soldiers. Our social activity so
far has centered in ball playing. An
interesting series has ben played with
the crew of the Olympia, but as yet
neither side has won any advantage
over the other.
Fishing and bathing are secondary
sports which help to pass the time

and small shot.
Insurgept soldiers are frequently
seen in company with their officers late
at night near the river back and the

has past we are still in the memories
of our good time.
The cooks prepared a fine dinner for
US, and we had hardly finished when
we found our third recruit battalion
preparing 10 pitch tents. AS we were
old veterans we showed them how to
capture q battalion and soon had the
whole crowd imprisoned in the various
mess "halls.''
The arrival of the 3rd battalion pro-
misses to make our future stay more
pleasant.
