NINE THOUSAND OF THE REGULARS FOR
GENERAL OTIS SELECTED.

Washington, April 2O.-Nearly nine thousand
Regulars of the fourteen thousand that the
President has determined to order to General
Otis during the coming summer have been prac-
tically selected and no difficulty Is apprehended
by the War Department authorities In securing
the remaining fve thousand by the time they
are needed. The excellent outlook In Porto Rico
and Cuba will in all likelihood permit the with
drawal OF four more regiments from those ISL
ands before the summer IL over and the FIVE
thousand thus obtained will fll the require
ments. either by being sent forward directly 10
Manila by relieving domestic garrisons for
service acoss the Pacific
The lack of transportation facilities consti-
tutes the greatest problem. but General Otis
fortunately does not require more than thirty
thousand troops during the summer. and by the
time he does need the remaining five thousand
they will be ready for him and the ships will be
available to transport them.

the responsibility OF furnishing all the military
forces required in the colonies has prepared the

CHILDREN WERE In PERIL.
Deaf and Dumb Asylum Burned Near
Pittsburg-Inmates Marched Out
Safeiy--The Loss Heavy.

PITTsBURG, Dec. l5.-The building of
Western Pennsylvania Institute for the
Deaf and Dumb, at the corner of Swiss
vale avenue and Walnut street, Edge
wood, caught fire and was almost en-
tirely destroyed. At the time the build
ing took fire there were about 250 chill
dren III it, beside about 30 teachers and
attendants. With great presence of
mind the teachers kept the frightened
children under subsection and they all
escaped in safety.
The fire originated near the roof in an
unknown manner and had gained con-
siderable Roadway before discovered.
The wall fire extinguishers were the
only means at hand with which to do
battle with the fiery element and the eff
forts of the Edgewood volunteer hose
company proved futile. Word was tele-
phoned to the Williamsburg and Pitts
burg fire departments and, as soon as
fire apparatus could be gotten to the
scene, a number of streams were play
ing on the building, which by that time
had become like great heated furnace.
The hospital building, which stands a
little distance from the main living and
class rooms which compose the main
building, did not catch fire for some
time, and it was hoped that it at least
could be saved. The flames, however
communicated to it and it was burned
10 the ground.
The building was erected about 1880.
and since that time extensive additions
have been built. The total cost of the
structure was about 100000. 1t was a
fine structure of brick and stone, four
stories high, and was considered one of
the most complete of its kind in the
country.
The hospital building was only re-
Gently built and cost about $25, 900.

Like a flower in the garden of human
ity she blossomed into the loneliness Of
life. Death came with stealthy tread to
rob earth's heaven of it's fruitage and
transplant it's treasures in the skies.
Dimple Blackiston has been called from
the friendships of this sweet fair dream
of life to the home immortal in the
grander land Of peace. She is gone to
the restful haven of the pure i'm heart,
to live forever in the memory of those
who linger apace on these uncertain
shores of time. Her life was a model Of
the virtues that link mankind to God,
and make better the world that is graced
by the sunshine of such a worthy, soulful
heart as hers. To those whose grief is
yelled with tears, and in whose hearts the
leaden echo of human hopes seems like
the dreary throb of anguish and despair,
we would tender the sympathy of this
community and bid the sorrowing soul
lay it's burdens on the promises of God.

morally guilty of an act Which circum-
stances may have prevented him from
committing.
Applying this rule to the democratic
press, in their efforts to prevent the gov
inner from waging a successful war
against the Filipinos, their intent is evil
dent, even though they do not commit
overt acts that would subject them to
the constitutional definition of treason.
1t is, after all, merely the distinction be-
tween what they would like to do and
what they are able to do within the limits
of the law and the constitutional rights
the desire of the democratic press to see
the V nment worsted in the Filipino
war, just as they hoped and prayed for
the success of the confederacy thirty-five
years ago If this does not constitute
moral treason there can be no rela-
tionship between a reasonable act and
the reasonable motive behind it.
1t is possible for a man to perpetrate
a great wrong to the community in which
he resides through the unbridled exercise
of his constitutional right of free speech,
especially in times of great excitement
due to local troubles of any kind, and
yet be guilty of no crime punishable
under the law. 1t is likewise possible for
the democratic press to seriously cripple
the government in it's work of suppress
Ing the insurreclion in it's Philippine pos
sessions. without committing any actual
infraction Of the law governing the 10y
atty of the citizen. But it is neverthe-
less the duty OF every patriotic citizen to
rebuke the mistaken policy Of the demo-
cratic press, n place such work in its
roper classification. Measured by it's
purposes and effects. the Inter Mountain
can apply to it no better name than
moral treason
