twenty-seven points behind on the total
games. At the close of the games the

Butts yesterday afternoon is deeply re-
gretted by his friends, who feel he is

It is difficult as yet to determine just
how badly he is hurt, but having been
kicked in the chest it SIS feared he may
be injured internally. His left collar
bone was broken, while his face and
scalp received some slight wounds, and
his right elbow was also badly bruised.
He became conscious before he reached
the house yesterday, but it has been
necessary to administer opiates to re-

| Wednesday being the eightieth ami
versary of Odd Fellowship, it was de-
cided by the members of the order in
this city to hold anniversary exercises
on the regular meeting night of the
Rebekahs. Accordingly, about eighty
mem bers and guests were present at the
K. of P. hall to enjoy the program pre-
pared. The literary and musical pro-
gram consisted of solo by DIR. Doane,
duet by Messrs. Crandall and Doane,
colo by Miss Maie Gushing, with
guitar ccompaninent> and short ad-
dress by Hon. John MicheIl regarding
the order and it's benefits. The grand
march. which was led by the leading
officers of the orders, and which at once
proceeded to the email hall in quest OF
the banquet, was somewhat different
from the usual custom which prevails.
from the fact that every gentle an was
required to have a partner, and could
not get "lady of his own" but must
have some ones else sweetheart or wife.
That may account for the fact that the
banquet, which was served by A. Keller
was said to be his very best effort in
that line. and to have been also the
most enjoyable the guests ever sat down
to.

our Brave Oregon soldiers.

& On every side do we hear praises of
the brave Oregon boys who are now
fighting for their country. Here is
what Freedom" a Manila newsraptr
says:
"In the battle of Malabon on Saturday,
March 10th, the Second Oregon regi-
ment U. S. V. took an active and lead
ing part, and displayed courage, valor
and endurance of the highest order.
For years to come the work of this regi-
ment last Saturday will be pointed out
as an example of what can be achieved
by volunteers. No veterans of yelling.
ton or Napoleon or Grant could have
done better. No one can possibly con-
ceive the heroic bravery of the Second
Oregon on this occasion unless he
walked over the battle field; over the
through the thickets and jungle; over
open stretches where for 500 yards the
boys faced a steady rain of bullets; and
apsto the final insurgent lines which
consisted really of fort with stone loop
| holes. This Is not exagseration- It is
not half the truth. The whole truth
concerning the work of this regiment
will not be written. No one saw it all,
and descriptions of those rushes through
Relde where the air was fairly charged
with pulsing lead would hardly be be.
/ lieved. Why was the regiment not
annihilated? God only knows. There
is an old saying that it takes ton ol
lead to kill a soldier. The natives are
phenomenalIy poor marksmen. This
fact and favoring providence saved the
Oregone-as it did other regiments
from destruction.
"The insurgents with repeating Ma.
users threw torrents of leaden hail al
our lines at random-some bullets mus
find a victim.
ssCol. Summers should be proud of his
regiment; the Eighth Army Corps
should be proud of this record and tn.

The Army Bill.

The army bill which passed the house
on Tuesday of this week, and which
was the Hull bill amended, provides
thc organization for regular army of
100, O0O men. That is to say, Il creates
officers and machinery enough to COM
mand and equip such a force, but It
calls for only $4,000 men except when
the president in his discretion shall
consider a larger number necessary.
Unless he orders otherwise. the army
is to be $4,000 strong on a peace basis,
but when he desires he can raise the
number of the 100000 limit by simply
Increasing the size Of the companies
above the co men limit.
The bill provides. in addition to ger
eral officers and staff departments, for
twelve regiments of cavalry of twelve
troops each, 1i4 coast batteries, twenty
four field batteries. thirty regiments of
infantry of twelve companies each, a
corps of engineers and one regiment of
engineers, an ordnance department and
q signal corps. the latter with G25 en-.
listed men. The bill also gives the
president discretion to recruit the or
ganizations serving in Cuba. Porto
Rico. Hawaii and the Philippines in
whole or in part from the inhabitants
Of those islands.
This bill is a compromise measure
but good one. 1t aileviates the alarm

hereafter no appointments to office In

nors will be valid until approved by
Governor Brooke. On it's face this ar"
rangement looks like a grab at author
ity by Brooke but the real reason for
it doubtless is to accustom Cubans to
the idea of centralized authority and
to counteract their obviously imprac-
tlcal tendency to regard each of the

is divided as utterly independent of the
others.

An Act of Benevolence.

The points involved IN the payment
by the United states Of S3,0OOO0O TO
the Cuban inSurgent army on condition
that it be disbanded and its arms sur
rendered need to be clearly understood
in this country. The money is a free
contribution of the American govern
ment to the cause Of Cuban pacfica-
ton and reconstruction. 1t is not
recognition of the insurgent army or of
the insurgent government but recoG-
milton of the fact that until these men,
most of them homeless and penniless
and held together by military agencies
because otherwise they would have no
means of support and would become a
public charge and menace, are dis
banded and given the means where
with to become peaceful producers,
the whole industrial and commercial
development of the island will be held
in allegiance.
The United States gives this money
TO the Cuban insurgents for precisely
the same reason that it gives food and
clothing and shelter to the Cuban
pacifcos-bccause they need ii and
need it so badly that until they get it
we cannot complete the mission of hu-
manity which called us into Cuba. The
payment of this $3,O0O,000 by the United
states is not a charge upon the
revenues of Cuba; it is an act of ma
tional benevOience, and 1t in no degree
affects the question whether the in
surgent army shall be paid by the COM
ing republic of Cuba the wages prom
ised to it when the insurrection was
organized. That is a question for set
tlcment b. the CuDans themselves
when their own government is organ
lied and in harmonious running order
We have nothing to do with that, one
way or another; as trustees of the is
lund we have simply to consider how
best we may facilitate the conditions
which will justify our retirement from
military control.
If it is asked whence our reward is
to come for all this benevOlence the
answer will readily occur to intelligent
Americans In addition to virtue being
its own reward, we are to benefit from
the bettered commercial and sanitary
conditions Of the regenerated Cuba
which is to be: we are TO receive from
that island such special concessions,
naval OF fiscal, as its people in their
gratitude may press upon us, and we
are to show to the world that there
is a kind of imperialism, so-called
which wars for the betterment of hui
man conditions and not simply for the
prestige and loot of widened empire.

NEWS AND COMMENT.

John Il. Anderson, of Philadelphia, who
was n gun captain on the Olympia dur
ing the battle of Manila, but who is now
home, has the following to say about
Dewey: Admiral Dewey is Just my idea
of what an admiral should be. l was on
the same ship with him for ten months
and ] will tell you Just how he appeared
to his men. The admiral was very
strict man, with keen, sharp eye that
seemed to size up a person or situation
in a moment. He seemed to know ev-
erything that was going on around him
and would jump q man as quick as
flash if he made a mistake. 1t did not
matter whether 1t was an officer or
seaman-he would overhaul any one If
things did not so just right. Whatever
he did was done with dignity, though,
and l never saw him angry but once. 1
said that Admiral Dewey was strict.
Well, he was, even to the smallest de-
tail. Whenever he passed along the deck
we stood up and saluted him, which he
returned with scrupulouS care. saluting
with the same slow, precise and delibet-
ate movement which he expected to be
observed by others in saluting him. There
was no quick jerk or half recognition
about him. Whatever he did he did 1t as
IL he meant it, and whatever he wanted
done, he wanted 1t done right. The men
liked him for his frank manner when
dealing with others. He would not take
q bluff from any one. and every one knew
it, or they soon found it out, when they
attempted anything of the kind with him.
Nothing inspires respect for ones chief
like the belief that he is absolutely self
reliant, and this Is just what we all felt
about Admiral Dewey. that he was equal
to any emergency that might arise. No
matter when or where you saw the cd
miral he looked as if he had just stepped
out of a. bandboX. Ills white clothes
and shoes were always spotless, and the
