Hopes Kept Aname.
Copies of the insurgent organ, INDIE
pendencia, show that the Filipinos'
hopes of success are kept afiame by
political movements in America. The
Independence prints reports of alleged
speeches made at alleged meetings in
the United States denouncing the war,
and it asserts that these represent the
dominant American sentiment. 1t de-
clares also that the Filipinos will con-
tinue the war until the next presiden-
tial campaign, which is 'ssure to result
in a decision to withdraw the American
troops from the Philippines

Manila, June 24.-Aguinaldo does not
seem to be satisfied with the attempt
of the insurgents to retake San Fernan-
do, and he has taken command of Gen.
Luna's army and has massed the largest
rebel force yet modified, bringing 1000
men from the Antipolo region. He is
exceedingly troublesome. Thursday
night his men wounded two members of
the Seventeenth regiment. Gen. Mac
Arthur's men are constantly on the
alert to repel any attacks by the reb-
els, sleeping upon their arms. The
general sincerely hopes that the Fill
ipinos will give him another chance for
battle, for the soldiers really enjoy
an opportunity to fight them when they
can do so without wading through
swamps to catch them.

Frank Stone had for his subject that
man whose name always arouses SO
much enthusiasm in the hearts of every
true Republican James G.. Blaine.
About the splendid and almost roman
tic figure of the Plumed Knight, Mr..
Stone cast spell of oratory which elic-
tied the most enthusiastic applause of
the evening. Mr.. Stone has wonder
ful voice for public speaking, and his
thought is as clear and full as are his
ringing tones. AS Grant was the mill.
tary, Lincoln the executive, Blaine was
the congressional hero,of the war. 1t
Was he who had fought to uphold the
Presidents hands and who had rtpelled
by his logic, his sarcasm and his burn
ing eoquence. the attacks of the North.

tronbles in the present congress to
those which Washington experienced
whenin command of the American
armies
A surprise awaited the audiencein in
recital by Mr.. Geo. w. Huntington of
the famous eulogy upon Alexander
Hamilton. Mr.. Huntington's delivery
WAS excellent and very impressive. He
did not come expecting to take part in
the exercises but thought that the great
Hamilton should not be omitted from
the program. The most remarkable
part was that man OF Mr.. Hunting
ton s aye should have this eulogy at his

paration to recite it word for word
Although the hour was late everyone
was eager to hear the singing by an
chorus of young ladies. Their well
trained voices blended beautifully.
This was followed by II ribbon drill and

Those who talk yolubly upon their
joys and their griefs are not generally
those who are capable Of the profound
est happiness or the most intense suf-
fering. Those who can put into ready
words the sanetities Of love, and fluent
" express all its hopes and fears. have
seldom penetrated to its depths. Those
who utter glibly and unrestrainedly all
their upward strivings, their senti-
ments of eontrition, their feelings OF
reverence, their desire for worship, are
not usually the most truly religious
or devout. For all that Is highest,
deepest, aud most profound in human
nature silence is a better exponent
than speech Not only is language in
adequate to convey the truth Of such
