War Notes.

The war with Spain is over, but the
battle of disease with health is still on.
ItIages hottest in spring. Disease, bred
during the rigors of winter, turks in the
system to do its deadly work. You do
not feel well. You have no appetite.
You are nervous. You have indiges-
ton, which you thinks heart trouble.
You are dizzy, feel tired, discouraged,
and about ready to give up the battle.

Aguinaldo Has Wonderful Control Over
His Followers.
A Personal Sketch Written by n
Highly Educated FiIipinO-How
He Became RevoiutiOnist.
Written for The Evening Star by Raymond Reyes

Written for The Evening Star by Raymond Reyes
Lala.
General Emilio Aguinaldo y Fanny, the
president of the Filipnos is little more
than thirty years of age. He was born
in linus, little village near Cavite. His
father was planter, and the son sent
first to the College of St. Jean de Lutheran,
then to the University of st. Thomas in
Manila. The youths education cost the
father much privation, for the cost of pur-
suing course of study at these iustitu-
tions is not less than 1.200 francs a year,
and the elder Aguinaldo had great difficulty
to make both ends meet.
At st. Jean de Lateran the student is
drilled in Spanish and Latin and the
classics; and when he is able to translate
the masterpieces of Rome with facility, he
is ready for the University of ST. Thomas.
This, like the college, is under the Domini-
cans. In the university, the principal
studies are physics. meta physics. theology,
JURISPRUDENCE, law and medicine.
Aguinaldo was adjudged a very dull stu
dent, and gave no promise of distinction

the heroes OF other times. We have room

not have it TO cherish This is excepting
of course. the traditional attendant upon
George Washington, in his last moments,
and his favorite body servant. Next to
Washington perhaps. in the minds of the
people, the great emancipatJr, Abraham
Lincoln. holds a cherished place. This is
not saying chat Lincoln ranked with Wash

And, since he and Washington are thus
coupled in popular affection. incongruous
as the union may seem TO the student of

But Few Remain.
Year by year, the number who were in
