A Phase Of tho War.

A Carlisle paper says one of the
singular phases of the Filipinos war,
is found in the fact that Cumber-
land county young man was killed d in
battle and bis friends notified of the
fact by despatct. Some days after
the death notice was received bis
father got q letter from him stating
that he had been IN battle and knew
that Lc killed two Of the enemy. Tho
peculiar phase in the case is found
in tie fact that the young mans let
ter was written before the battle in
which he was killed took place. The
no'ice of the Carlisle paper reads:
Osfa, FelIer OF Meet anicsburg,
Cunbt RI md county, enlisted in .
Socth Dakota regiment and took part
in a number Of engagements in Mar.
lila. Word has been received in Car
Isle that he was killed February 19.
His father, who lives in Carlisle has
been notified that the body will be
shipped home next fall. A letter
from the unfortunate young man has
Just been received by friend. It is
dated Manila, February 8, aud is as
follows:
Friend Joe: "As You know, by
this time the war is on with the in
surgents. Our regiment was in the
charge, Sunday. February S. 1t wss
q great sight. I killed two Fiiipinos
thut I know of; may have killed more;
not sure. There seemed to be thou
sands of them and they fred like
blszes. If they were better marks
men they would clean US up, as they
have more soldiers than we have.
We burn all the buildings as We take
them. The country around the fir.
ing line is burning. It is q grand
sight. I felt little queer when the
thing opened up, but came around
all right later. I don't know bow
long it will last, AZ we are to
push right through to yMalolos. There
will be some hot work then. a. they
have that place well fortified.

pletely knocked out the Tribune
ProthOnOtary aspirant as it has
shelved the republican pill box
aspirant for the same Office. The
Tribune PrOthonOtary aspirant is
50 dazed that he doesn't recognize
his Smart Aleck sOliloquies and
has been going among the school
boys to find out what the matter is.
A school boy might tell him if he
had had intelligence enough to in
form the boy that he is whining
around because the times are not
prOpitiOus for any one of the pill
boxes to dose him for the Pro
thOnOtaryship. He is as unfOrtu
nate in the selection of the writer's
-efhiS Smart Aleck sOlilOquies as he
was when he paid five dollars to
literary man to write Il biOgraphi
cal article for himself and so forth,
for the Biographical History of
Juniata Valley. "Jehullikens
what a tail our cat has gOt.' 1t is
strong card of announcement for
him as candidate for the Pro
thOnOtaryship, that he has annOun-
ced himself in that Smart Aleck
way. 1t will take good many
pills, and some castor oil, and
quinine, and sedatives, and ipecac,
and opium, and potash, to get him
on the ticket. Before he gets there
he'll sweat more than he does now,
under the sudOrific powders of the
pill box writer's. The voters will
be slow to cast their votes for Il
man who sOlilOquizes as he does
on booze and lunacy, who at the
same time has as many dead and
living drunkards and lunatics
among his relations as he has. 1fI
he had no respect for himself, coin
mon respect for his dead and living
drunken and lunatic relatives
should have prevented him from
bringing them before the public.
You should be ashamed of YOUR
self. A Chimpanzee just i'll from
the wilds of Africa, or Asia, would
be very slow about treating his
dead and living relatives in such IA
way. But that seems his ignorant
way of showing up his qualifica-
tiOns for the ProthOnOtaryship.
The last weeks deliverance in the
Tribune Oh his Smart Aleckism is
as much of jargOn as the former
pill box deliverance. The pill box
writer gave the article an admir-
able name when he styled it ''Jum-
bled Nonsense and Blather." To
show the reader how the article
fits the title that the pill box gave
it we reproduce the article. Here
it is:

SENATOR HERTZLER made a
speech Oh the 2Sth of March, in
the State Senate against the pass
age of an act compelling school di-
rectOrs to keep the schools open
seven months every year. Under
the old law directors could have as
many months as they choose, 4
months, q months, S months, 10
months, but under the new law
which was enacted, they are not
allowed to hold less than seven
months of school. Senator Hertz
Ter has presented the best of rea-
Sons why such an arbitrary school
law should not be passed. 1t is
mistake for the over Jealous school
men to push their lines of expen-
ditures upon the people, for when
the days of reaction comes, there
is no telling how much uprOoting
may take place.

About Tobacco.

Wise people do not condemn tobacco
when used in moderation. Prof. Hux-
ley said: Smoking is a comfortable
and laudable practice, is productive of
good, and there is no more harm in a
pipe Of tobacco than in a cup of tea"
The late Rev. c. II. SpurgeOn, at the
end of one of his sermons, said: Il in
tens to smoke n cigar to the glory of
God before 1 60 to bed tonight, for I
have found intense pain relieved,
weary brain soothed and calm, refresh
ing sleep obtained by a cigar" Bishop
Burnett remarked: 'T always smoke
while 1 write" and Bishop Fletcher
said. 81 smother my cares in tobacco"
Lord Clarendon avowed: mo man in
Europe loves a good smoke better than
l." Lord Broughham declared: Il GER
tainly derive the greatest benefit from
a pipe Of tobacco" Thackeray com.

comforts Of my life-a kind compan-
ion. a gentle stimulant. an amiable

Think Before You Strike.

h1uk nSIOIc 1Ou tIIACs
1 remember reading In my bOyhood
about a merchant travelling on horse
back, accompanied by a dog. He dis
mounted for some purpose, and acci-
dentally dropped his package of money.
The dog saw 1t, the merchant did not
The dog barked to stop him, and as he
rode farther bounded in front Of the
horse and barked louder and louder.
The merchant thought he had gone
mad, drew a pistol from his holster,
and shot him. The wounded dog
crayled back to the package, and when
the merchant discovered his loss and
rode back he found his dying dog lying
there, faithfully guarding the treasure.
The following little story, told by .
adds force to the thought: Think before
you strike any creature that cannot
speak. when 1 was young, and lived
ND in the mountains of New Hamp-
shire, 1 worked for a farmer, and was
given a span Of horses to plew with,
one of which was 4-year-old colt. The
colt after walking n few steps would
lie down In the furrow. The farmer
was provoked and told me to sit on the
colts head, to keep him from rising
while he whipped h , to break him of
that notion as he said. But just then
a neighbor came by. He said, There's
something wrong here, let him get up
and let us find out what Is the matter
He patted the colt, looked at his har-

Luckv and Unlucky Number,

The superstition of the world would
afford material for great deal of curl
Gus investigation. One of it's oldest
features is the belief in lucky numbers,
which is to be found in very sensible
people. 1t Is generally fancied that
even numbers are unlucky, and a writer
gives a reason for this, namely, that an
even number can always be divided by
two, thus denoting death and dissolu-
ton. Some of the early Christians
cherished a curious faith in odd num-
bers. In some parts of England a
housewife is always particular to set
her hens on an odd number of eggs,
lest otherwise there should be no
chicks. But If the Graces were three,
so also were the Furies; and a statisi-
cal comparison would convince any in
quirer that one number is no more
lucky than another. Still we shall
probably keep on saying, Three times
and then out" There's luck in odd
numbers" and the rest of the supersti.
tious old saws.
