FiIipinos Kill spaniards.

FilipinOs Kill Spaniards.
Ten former Spanish soldiers, who were
captured by the Filipinos and for time
acted as officers and members of Filipino

Santa Rosa, in the Laguna de Bay district.
determined to surrender the artillery to the
Americans. The plot was discovered by the
FilipinOs, who killed seven OF the conspira-
tors, the other three escaping TO Manila.
1t appears that when the surrender was
agreed on the Spaniards delegated one OF
their number to proceed to Manila and to
propose to General Otis to surrender after
prearranged mock battle. about twelve
pieces, including Krupp aud Nordenfeldt

tion from the Lipa powder factory. in ex-
change for certain sums to be paid the Span
ards, who were to be pardoned for carrying
arms against the Americans and to be trans
ported to Spain.
The delegate left Santa Rosa and accom-
panied by three Filipnos, entered the Amer
lean lines at Caamba. The Filipinos did
not proceed far, deciding TO await his return
at given time AS the delegate was de-
tained in Manila longer than they had ex-
pected, they grew suspicious and returned
to Santa Rosa.
The plot was then revealed and the re-

reported that the Filiplnos on discovering
the plot to surrender the artillery, had cut
the throats Of seven of their Spanish com

From the Chicago Chronicle.
Now that Governor Roosevelt has tenn

glory in the tented field.

Princeton as a Social Center.

From the Providence Journal.
There is scheme afoot to make Prince
ton, N. J., a social center. A large tract
of land has been purchased, on which
home and country club will be establish
ed, the privileges of which win probably
be free to students at the university. A
stream running through the property will
be damned and an artificial lake created,
on which the university crew-if such
body is ever organized-can practice. An
effort will be made to draw cultured peo-
pie and people with money to the place.
and found a new Lakewood or Tuxedo with
facilities for golf and other fashionable
sports, winding drives and handsome park
preserves.
Princeton is thus to become a social CEN
ter rather than the distinctive home of lit
erature and the arts. Society is to be at
tracted thither, though literary persons
will not be barred. Bookworms and writ
ers of verse, scientific authorities and
classical scholars may still haunt Cam
bridge and New Haven without protest
from the New Jersey community. The
reign of the high hat and the kid glove,
the house coat and the immaculate shirt
front. the golf stick and the riding whip
will be supreme at Princeton.
A chair of sartorial ethics will probably
be founded at the university. Students
will not be permitted to enter the class
room if they wear detachable cuffs or
made ties There has been said to be,

Harvard professor once said that he could
tell any Brown man who came to Cam
bridge for a postgraduate course by the
thoroughness of his analytic training.

appearance. There is something to be
said in favor of a college education that

DuPUY NOTES.

The Great Northern is preparing to
use a large amount of gravel from its
pit near Blackfoot and also stone from
the quarry in the same vicinity. Five
hundred Japanese are expected to ar
rive there this week for distribution
along the line, and in anticipation of
a great rush OF business two new sa-
looms have been opened at Cutbank.
The reservation roundup VIII not
start until about the middle of this
month or later. The cold weather and
the poor quality of feed is delaying
the work very materially.
Mrs. Joseph Kipp, who has been dan
gerously i'll for the past month, is now
convalescent, and her friends are con-
fident of her complete restoration to
health in time.

Great Falls May 12.-People arriving
IN the city from Lewistown announce
that the election held there Il rew
days ago resulted in favor of incorpo-
ration by vote of 115 to 90. This is
the third election which has been held
for that purpose, and though both of
the papers have advocated incorp oca-
ton and in many cases the .oulpits
preached in favor of it, the vote shows
that there is still much opposition to
the measure. 1t is said that the battle
was warmly contested by both sides.

DID MUCH DAMAGE.
Pieces of Boiler Plate Waited Through
the Air,

Great Falls, May 12.-The little zephyr
Of yesterday seems to have done con-
siderable damage throughout the city
and in some country sections. CHM
neys were blown down, fences uprooted
and even heavy plank sidewalks were
ripped upside down. Fortunately, no
great damage was done in any one
spot, and with falling of temperature
the wind went down. To-day only the
ordinary wind is blowing, enabling car
penters and masons and tinsmiths to
repair ravages of yesterday.
Among the damages reported to-day
is the destruction of the smokestack at
the Royal mill and that at the main
office of the Boston & Montana smelter.
Residents of the Boston & Montana
addition say that they were visited in
the course of the afternoon by drifts
of tin cans ranging in size from that
of salmon and embalmed beef fame to
those used for kerosene oil in five-gal-
lon lots, while others report that pieces
of boiler plate were also in the collec
ton.

A VERDICT Of MURDER
Made by the Coroner's Jury in
the Wills Inquest.
THE VICTIM A MERE BOY
His Slayer Is Only 16-The Murder Was
the Res ult OF Childish Quar-
rel-The Prisoner Is
Hal.-Breed.

Great Falls, May 12.--The coroner's
jury which sat in the death of John
Wills at Lewistown has brought in a
verdict that he came to his death by
means of a gun in the hands of Odilon
Oueuette, and that the manner in which
death was produced was felonious.
Wills was but Is years old, while his
slayer with the unpronunceabl BILE name is
16 years old and a member of a quar-
ter-breed family well known in Fergus
county, having lived near Lewistown
since early in the $685. The dead boy
is son of a veteran of the civil war,
who has been confined to his bed by
has also been i'll and the death of the
boy thus comes doubly hard.
Ouellette has been inclined to be I'M
ruly for some time, and it was not long
ago that his parents applied to the
county authorities to have him placed
in the reform school. His actions hard
ly warranted this and the court dis
missed the charge.
Thursday last the two boys, Ouellette
and Wills, accompanied by Ernest and
Earl Sprague, sons of Mrs. Susan
spectively, went down the creek bottom
a short distance hunting ducks, the
quarterbreed boy carrying 44-caliber
Winchester rifle. Ducks not appearing
plentiful, the boys sat down on the hill
near the Catholic burying ground to
smoke cigarettes. From this point the
stories of the Sprague boys and the de-
ceased differ from that told by Ouel-
lette Ouellette claims that the Sprague
hnh ind h
they persisted in fooling with the gun,
which lay across his lap, pointed toward
Wills. Finally the gun was discharged,
the barrel rising up and striking Ouel-
lette in the jaw and the ball entering
Wills. Prior to his death Wills made
statement to the county attorney which
precisely agrees with that given at the
inquest by the Sprague boys and also
with what Ouellette Is said to have ad-
mitted Immediately after the affair.
This story is that Wills took from his
pocket a pipe, which he was proceed
ing to fill, when Ouellette asked for it,
receiving a refusal. Ouellette persisted
in trying to secure the pipe, though
entirely by demand, and finally said:
IF you don't give it to me l will shoot
you" AS he reached for the gun, which
lay near on the hill, one of the Sprague
boys said to Wills, Look out, Bub,'
"Bub" being the Wills boys nickname.
The gun was lifted quickly and dis
charged by Ouellette, the ball entering
the right breast and passing through
the lungs and liver and out near the
spinal column. All the boys assisted
their injured playmate in walking
home, a distance of about mile and
a quarter, and after the house was
reached the story was related, Ouellette
merely claiming that he did not intend
tO do jt--it was accidental,
Medical aid was obtained promptly,
but Wills died early the following
morning. Ouellette was at once ar
rested and held for examination.

FRIGHTFUL HEAT,
1t is Taking the Flesh Off the Boys in the
Philippines.

Great Falls, May 12-Tim Moran has
received a letter from his brother, John,
captain of Company A, dated on April
5, from Malabon, the insurgent CAPT
tai.
Captain Moran says the boys are all
feeling well. but have been reduced
considerably in flesh on account of the
heat, which is perfectly awful. He had
lost 10 pounds at the time Of writing,
and one day was completely knocked
out. He also says that he has raised a
crop of whiskers. In one days march
10 of the men were Frustrated by the
extreme heat.
The captain says that Harry Athey
and all the wounded men are doing
Well. When he wrote it was expected
the trouble would soon be over. as men
from the insurgents ranks were de-
sorting daily and they seemed to be
completely demoralized.

southern people or defect of their civiliza-

are as certainly followed by lynchings in
