Of one of the soldiers now in Manila
the following story is told of the son
of prominent official of this city:
The soldier had been feeling unwei!
for several days and was ordered to
the island Of Corregidor, where one of
the hospitals Is located. Strolling along
the beach one afternoon he saw a gen.
tleman come sauntering along toward
him. The only peculiar feature about
the man was that he carried a cane
and was very neatly dressed for man
on that island. The stranger approach
ed the soldier and passed the compli-
ments Of the day. The two fell into
easy conversation, and the stranger in
quired about the hospital, the island
and all questions pertaining to the
fierce struggle with the Filipinos, and
concluded by drawing on the sands
with his cane the shape of the bays
and inlets and the position of the fleet.
The young Coloradoan was delightfully."-
entertained for couple of hours, and
only when the stranger was ready to
embark on a sloop that put in to shore
after him did he learn that his pleas.

miral George Dewey.-Denver Times.

Cause of the Rise.

London cables have ascribed the rise
to expectations that the lately organized
smelter trust is likely to raise the price
of silver arbitrarily. This was ridiculed
by all silver dealers today and they point
ed out that any such action by the smelt-
ing combination would be equivalent to
binding up the price of their own raw
material.
The smelters were, in fact, taken con-
siderably off their guard by this weeks

as very uncertain; impossible to fore

feast in the Kenyon dining room
Even the William goat, an animal

seemed to enter into the spirit of the
occasion. Tied to a pillar in the va

broken dishes, shipped glasses and
other dainties tossed jovially toward
him by the boys. That goat would
have eaten embalmed beef if it had
formed part of the menu, just to show
what thoroughly dear old college
chum he was. There was another goat,
but it was stuffed. So were the par
