THE BoLo OF THE F111p1Nos.
A Weapon which Ha. Proved 1nef-
ficient Against Our Troops
and Their Arms.

A letter from Lieut.. William M. Copp,
of the Sixth artillery, who is on the gum
boat Napidan in Laguna de Bay, gives
the following interesting information
concerning one phase of the fighting
with the Filipinos:
"An odd trait in the character of the
natives is that they never leave one of
their dead if they can possibly get him
away. They leave more now than they
used to, for this reason: Formerly they
had at least five men for every gun, and
about all these men were good for was
to carry away the wounded and dead,
although they were armed with bolos.
These weapons were very effective
against the Spaniards, as the bolo men
apparently cared nothing for their own
lives, and the Spaniards did not have
the courage to stand when they
charged; SO, of course, they were cut
to pieces, the bolo being without doubt
one of the most terrible weapons at
close quarters in the world. 1t is very
sharp and so heavy that it will smash
any sword in pieces that have seen.
They use them in the right hand, and a
long, heavy dagger in the left. 1 had
one of the many amigos who could han
die the bolo go through the motions for
me, and it was truly wonderful. The
rapidity of his moves was such that the
eye could hardly follow them, and all
the time he kept a constant guard. The
bolo is to cut, no point; the dagger is
used to stab, no edge. When these bolo
men tried the same tactics on our men
that they were accustomed to employ
so successfully against the Spaniards,
they were killed in large numbers, as
our men did not run, but simply shot
them. Now so many of these men have
been killed, there are fewer of them to
gun, and they are not able to get the
dead away quite as well as they did for
merly.
eff your servant goes away for day
or two, you can be certain he is with
the insurgents and in some fight. It is
too common to excite comment here
when an officers servant, who has been
absent several days, is found in the in
surgents uniform killed or is brought
into our hospital for treatment. IN. Y.

vested In the Paper ON the
Walls of the House.

"While in johannesburg saw a sam
pie of what was probably the most val
liable wallpaper ever used in house,
says traveller recently returned from
South Africa. ''It was a share certifi-
cate in one of the richest gold mines
of the Rand. In the early days an Eng
lishman who worked in one of the first
mines opened took his pay partly in
cash, but chiefly in script or shares of
the company. For many years the mine
yielded little, and the company was un-
able to pay dividends. After a time
the Englishman got discouraged with
working the pick for these nicely en-
graved, but unmarketable pieces of pa
per, and left the place for another part
of the country, where he continued tc
work hard for living, barely making
both ends meet.

cabin and made an offer for the WALL

large as to excite the miners curiosity,
and on investigation he found that he
was large shareholder in one of the
most profitable gold mines in the world.
He kept his shares, and to-day he is one
of the biggest mining kings. But even

RAISE OF THE PRESENT.

Poets there be who tune their Tyres to Days
OF Long Ago
And sing song Of sentiment in measure
sad and low.
To them the golden age is past, the golden
fleece is clipped;
The rose of pleasure hath been plucked, the
cup of joyance slipped:
They live in longing for the lost, the dead OF
Might Have Been
But Ia bard most practical-count all
such singing sin.
To me These Days. these present days.
Have fertile fields and howery ways,
Wherein my fancy fondly strays;
And II had a song to sing, I'd sing about
These Days.
And there be bards who rave stave con-
corning Days to Be,
When all things shall be lovely and luxu-
RANT and free,
When Joy shall reach her chalice down to
thirsty mortal lip.
And certain rare elected ones to drunken
ness shall sip;
The bud has yet to blossom and the honey
to be stored
Ere hungry souls may sit them down and
sweep the festal board.
But as for me, say These Days
Hold pastures where my soul may Craze
And drink delights and gather bays;
And If knew a stave to rave. I'd rave
about These Days.
To me These Days are golden-tipped with
goodly thoughts and things,
And Opportunity but waits to spread her
splendid wings
At my command. to bear me up and make
my vision wide,
That may sweep the height, the deep and
know them deified!
The golden Days Of Long Ago. the golden
Days to Be
Are not so wonderful by half as These Days
are to me;
And so These Days, these golden days.
To me are rich with wine and maize
And rinstrel-sweet with harvest lays;
And were I piping Pan himself, I'd pipe
about These Days.
