IN HER NIGHTGOWN.
Slight LinRuai nstnnc made by the GuatemaInn Minister nt
 Washinstoa.

1t IS unuenIaoie that foreign diplo- mats in Wasnington frequently find themselves at iuss, owing to the rov- elites presented 10 them by American customs. Even the language offers dif- faculties.
 Cray tnc otner day the Guatcmalan minister wus sp-agIng 10 scrlc Wash lng'on iaties ur wnut ne regarded as a rcHGrkablc suciai cNpericncc met with here af receprion al the capital. He had been lnvIteu 10 an afternoon recep. tio::

 Good heayens!" replied the ladies to whom thic information was addressed. Surely you are joking. Mir. Minister"
 Not at cll. ] assure you" reiterated the diplomat Ut was in her night dress that we were received--low neck and bare arms!"
 Oh. you mean evening dress, do you not, Mir. Minister?" suggested one of the ladies.
 Yes, that is what l meGn," admitted Senor Arriaga; flow neck and bare arms, just like the costume for the op- era or ball."
 As may be imagined, the laugh was at the minister's expense. In Wash inGton ladies quite commonly wear eYening dress when giving afternoon receptions. Hcctca Herald.

SAVING A FILIPINO.
Timely Rescue of the Native by a Squad Of Washington yol-
 upteers.

When company of Washington vol unteers was ordered on February to clear the village of Paco, near Manila, of insurgents, the men uttered several loud cries and went and did tke work. II was not easy work or safe vCrk. The rebels were well armed and fought from behind stone walls. Their most deter mined stand was made in a church, from which, encouraged by a white priest, they kept up hot fire upon the Americans. At last the latter charged across a bridge to and into the church, which they immediately set, on fire. Such of the natives as had not been killed escaped by n covered passage; at any rate, it was supposed so, after a hasty examination of the burning church had been made. One rebel. how ever, fingered too long for d final shot al the invaders, and what happened to him is thus described by Capt. F. F. Adams in a letter printed by the Seattle Post-lntelligencer: "We now left the church, as the fire was very hot. and l had just reformed the company when we heard loud cries for help at the southwest corner. looking over that way, saw an insurgtut with his arms through the iron bars Cr grating and his hands clasped. while ho pleaded in Spanish for us to save him from the flames. l sent Corporal Waters and a squad to endeavor to pry the hals apart. They worked manfully, but had no means of bending the iron. and had about concluded to shoot the fellow when they thought of digging a stone from the wall beneath the window. Out came their bayonets, and how the rEor- tar did fly! l now saw that tho caves would soon fall, and sent orders for them to withdraw, but they kept at their work, and saw them drag the fellow out and .iunIp back iUGt CS the roof and caves fell on the spot thii had just been occupied. The names of the men are Corporals Hugh Waters. Alfred Wclch. rge Winkler and Private F. T. Vii. E.as, nll of company D." War, 1t would appear from this narrative. does not quite turn all American gel dic-s into savages, murtcrcrs Of pris- oncrs, and in the interval of battle thinking only of loot. Also. that not quite all scldier letters home are useful for the part of the American press that says those are the invariable effects of fghting.-N. Y. Times.

to do.

said, in tone which indicated that she
was ready to resign.
