teach the Filipinos how to manage
the weapon. All this took place
in September, after the fall of
Manila, when the Filipinos could
not possibly have any use for these
guns but to make war on Ameri-
cans. When General Funston
made his famous charge across the
Rio Grande river at Zapote bridge
his command encountered one of
these Maxims. This was the first
time in the war that they had seen
one in operation against them.
General Funston said it was one
of the most terrifying incidents of
the campaign, and that he did not
wonder at the insurgents running
in the face of one of these tre-
mendous Maxim fires. Fortunate
ly for the Twentieth Kansas, the
insurgents could only fire the gun
in straight line. They evidently
did not understand traversing fire,
and their aim was also not true.
All the same, they cut through
field of corn as cleanly as with
scythe. All rifles were turned
against the gun and its fire was
stopped. The insurgents, however,
got away with it. When the men
of the Twentieth Kansas were in
Hong Kong, they felt revengeful,
and threats were freely made to
lynch Etzel and Meyers. In con-
sequence, the pair went to the su-
perintendent of police and asked
permission to carry revolvers and
to use them if they were attacked.
The chief of police, however. would
not grant the request, telling them
that they were in British colony,
aud that the police were perfectly
capable of keeping order without
their aid JABEz PoTTs.

together with his partner, A. II.

to F. w. Sutterlee, alias w. f. Syl-

AN associated press dispatch
from Washington yesterday gave
out the intelligence that it has
practically been decided that a
colonial bureau will be esta blished
to take directly in charge all mat
ters pertaining to the outlying de-
tendencies of the United States.
The Office will be a bureau of the
war department and not a separate
department as has been suggested,

that the selection of chief of the
bureau is now under consideration

IT is common expression that
Puebloans have been slow to take
advantage of the natural advant-
ages with which that now prosper
Gus city is surrounded; in other
words, they didn't catch on" 1t
is not at all unlikely that a great
change has taken place among the
people there. 1t looks so, as least.
For some years first one town, then
another, has been going to bring
about the construction of line of
railroad into the Silver Cliff dis
trict, and Florence is in that list,
and still there is no railroad to that
prosperous and promising section,
1t now looks as if Pueblo had put
her hand to the pillow and proposes
to supply the long felt want, even
promising that work on the new
line will be commenced not later
that the first of next month. 1t is
proposed to run the road from
Pueblo to Beulah, popular sum
mer resort, and thence Oh to Silver
Cliff. Enterprises of such a char
acter, enthusiastically entered into
and successfully carried out would
very soon bring Pueblo into the
prominence to which she by right
of location is justly entitled.
