The Boise Capital asserted some
time ago, that certain prominent
silver republicans had received in
timatlons that "they would be cared
for" if they would only get back
into the republican ranks. In view
of this, Patrie's letter bears some
familiar earmarks.

LITTLE BRUSH AT NIGHT.
Filipino Rebels at San Fernando Make a
Demonstration.

MANILA, July 3.-7:55 p. m.-The
rebels have made a demonstration at
San Fernando. They took advantage of
the darkness and rain to make a sally
against the north line, seemingly only
for the purpose of annoying the ,Ameri-
cans, as they failed to push their attack.
The American loss was a private of the
Seventeenth regiment killed and four
men wounded.
The firing began at 10 and the rebels
expended quantities of ammunition.
All the troops fastened to the trenches
in expectation of a general attack. The
Seventeenth regiment, the Twelfth
regiment and the Iowa regiment partici.
pated in the engagement, but did not
advance beyond the outposts. After an
hour the Filipinos fred rockets, appar-
emily as signal to cease firing, but
there were scattering shots all night
long, which kept the Americans under
arms.
The enemy's loss was not discovera.

HE PRISONER SURPRISES ALL

PARIS, July 3.-As the outcome OF
the governments prudence all France
remains tranquil. Maitres Denage and
Labor, Matthew Dreyfus and his wife,
have arrived at Rennes. The town is
quite tranquil. Maitre Labor, who
will defend Captain Dreyfus before the
courtmartial, has never yet seen him.
Nine. Dreyfus has only obtained per
mission to visit her husband thrice
weekly for an hour.
His composure is the theme of all
tongues. 1t seems that in the train one
of the officers began to read news
paper, but although Dreyfus had not
seen paper since he left France, he did
not display the slightest interest.
He speaks very little and seems tc
suffer partial paralysis of his throat
owing to his long silence. Even on
board the Sfax he had to communicate
with the officers by writing.
