General Macarthur Defeats the Flower
Of the Rebel Army.

Of the Rebel Army.
MANILA. April 29.-General MacAr-
thurs division crossed the Rio Grande
and advanced on .Apalit. completely
routing the flower Of the rebel army.
The enemy We're very strongly en-
trenched on the river bank near the
side Of the railway bridge. General
Wheaton sent Colonel Funston across
with two companies Of the Twentieth
Kansas regiment, a couple Of privates
swimming the swift stream with a rOpe
under a calling fire for the purpose of
guiding the raft. The men crossed in
squads of 20 and attacked the left flank
of the rebels, who scuttled like rabbits
into covered ways and trenches. The
rest of the regiment was compelled to
cross the bridge in single file along the
s%tringers. All the woodwork and much
of the ironwork had been removed. The
First Montana regiment followed the
kanSans across the bridge. The First

body of F~ilipinoS, estimated at no fewer
than 5000. led by Dantoni Luinl on a
black charger. evidently with a view Of
reinforcing the rebels that were engag-
ing the Nebraskans, appeared in the
open field two miles TO the left. E,nerg-
ing from the jungle the enemy formed
an open skirmish line two miles TO the
left. with very thick reserves following.
They advanced at a double-Quick until
they We're about 1000 yards from the
American line. when General Wheaton
ordered his troops to fire. The rebels,
who We're evidently unaware that the
Americans had crossed the river. broke
and ran in the direction Of Macubule.
The other Fil.pinos fled towards Ape!t
station.
Two Towns Evacuated.
Most of the rebels fed 70 .Apalit sta
ton. where two trains We're waiting for
them. They left hurriedly. presum-
ably for san Fernando. The towns OF
san Nincente and Apalit We're simuita-
neously burned and evacuated by the
natives. Twenty prisoners Were cap
tured. including a Spaniard. The
American troops also captured a brass
cannon and a quantity Of arms and am
munition, and the same evening they
captured a Maxim gun on the railroad.
The fighting lasted from noon until 1
o'clock. The American loss is one man
Of the Montana regiment killed and
three officers and six men wounded.
The heat in the early part of the aft
ernoon was terrific, but a drenching
thunderstorm. which came later, greatly
refreshed the Americans.

studded lid was damned down over my
eyes. and l must have been sight, for
a fact. Well. while l was straighten
ing myself out my pals in the press
box began to bid me welcome. They
gave me an ovation. All of 'em had
brought along those big rafting things
that you turn around on a handle. and
horns. and tin whistles, and things like
that, and for the ten minutes that the
prearranged hitch lasted they gave me
the greatest ovation you ever heard in
your life. They leaned over the rail of
the box and talked at me fa,niiiar|y,
calling me by my nickname, and men,
tioning out loud humorous tumultuoJs
events in my checkered life.
Then they all howled in chorus. I'M

directed the bowls with a cane that he
used for a baton. 1t was great, thar's
what it was. All l could do was to lie

Finally, to my intense relief. the
hitch up in the front part of the PRO
cession-the hitch manufactured by
Perley-was at an end and my II Ro-
man palanquin bearers hoisted me VI
in the air again. Then my friends in
the press box gathered themselves for
one huge. final expression of their en-
thusiasm. Howls failed them in this.
and so they buried me under an
avalanche OF fishhorns. rattles. whistles
and things-little offerings. they
shouted. indicative of their esteem and
appreciation of my first appearance on

A few doses of the Bitters will start

Yesterday quite a number of our
most prominent citizens discussed
the question of holding a citizens
meeting Monday, to pass upon the
matter of false and exaggerated
reports as to lynching of negroes,
sent out from here, being of the
opinion that it is very injurious to
this section and the entire south.
From the way some of these re-
ports are printed, people who are
not better informed would be led to
believe that the lynching OF ne
groes hereabout was common pas
time, and semi occasional occur
rences of little moment. 1t is GER
tainly high time that the world is
properly informed that these re-
ports are untrue, and that our best
people condemn lynch law asso-
ciated press and all papers which
printed the false reports should be
asked to correct same. If this citi-
zen's meeting is held, a circular
will inform the citizens Men
day morning of the time and place.
We most heartily endorse such a
course of procedure.

Chief Casey had in his possession
yesterday a half dollar, which had
a flaw in it which prevented it
from giving out a ring when thrown
upon the foer or counter. The
half looked alright but when thrown
upon the floor it sounded like that
much lead. 1t was pronounced a
rank counterfeit and the cigars
waged on it as to its genuiueness.
The half was taken to the bank
and Mr.. McCorke looked at it and
said it was good and offered to give
one that would ring for it. For
further particulars ask Constable
Crow who staked the smokers that
it was counterfeit.

The west side of our city has a
tramp camp near the Trigg street
depot, which should be broken up.
We have called the officers atten-

fore, but the camp is there, just
the same, and lazy white men are
to be seen there at all times. We
ask in the name of the citizens who
live in the vicinity aud who are
called upon for food to feed these
lazy vagabonds, to stop these men
from congregating at this place. If
we pay an officer to look after the
affairs of the city, he should attend
to them. The police department of
the West Side costs about S2 600 a
year and we shodld expect some re-
lief for this sum. The reporter of

officers, as they are his friends. We
