An impressive silence has fallen upon the
neighborhoods of the Boston, Philadelphia.
and Chicago Filipino juntas. which before
the autumn elections were as vocal as
boilershops under full sail. Hoar is hid

What he has to say is not rev. but it
is cumulative evidence supporting the uni

The Far East by Admiral Dewey DR..

anybody in authority, or seeming to be,
ever made promises of alliance or inde-
pendence to Aguinaldo. Indeed. he as
scrts that the Tagal emissaries who at
tended his lecture course in Manila. ad-
mitted that after hostilities had broken
out, Aguinaldo confessed TO them that no
American had ever made such promises or
suggestions. Spencer Pratt formerly our

that may account for the difference.

4 Clerical CRITIC.

Massachusetts, clergyman lately re-
turned from Manila has had great deal to
say about the depravity of the soldiers
stationed there. A lieutenant of the Sew
enth Artillery takes occasion, perhaps un-
necessarily, to reply TO these remarks. 1t is
hardly worth while to defend the men who
make up our volunteer regiments. Their
people at home are acquainted with them
already. But soldier naturally feels that
the honor of the service should be de-
Tended whenever necessary, and the young
lieutenants reply is quite natural He says
that the clergyman would naturally be
shocked at the life of thousands of men
together, far from home, in camps and bar
racks. because such conditions are new to
him and he sees evil where there is none
The lieutenant's belief is that if the clergy
way he would have found in them quite
as much religious sentiment and thought as
in most fashionable congregations.
The lieutenant's view is the correct one.
There is often, in camp life, a great show
of recklessness and irreverence which need
not mean depravity at all. II should be
considered that in the life of volunteer
army there are not the stratifcations com.
mon TO what is known as respectable So
ciety-at least not where the uninitiated
can see them. There are no exclusive sets
whose members do not speak to other sets;
there is not carefully graded social system
which would make itself apparent to the
casual eye. The registering element often
makes itself conspicuous in a way which
would not be SO much in evidence were il
not for the freedom from restraint and the
general rough and tumble life of the field;
and all the starch which is sometimes mis-
talss for virtue is knocked out of any sol.

VaadalisM ON the Hill.

Down in the political hades inhabited by
the shades of those who once were among
the great men of the National Capital,

sulphurous tears of rage, as it reads today

clergyman had probably never seen human

shocked him. In the society to which he
was accustomed. people talked on religion,

place for man TO occupy in the world.
This Massachusetts preacher had a good
opportunity TO learn something, and it ap-
pears that he did not see it. He had
chance to see the human nature which
he is supposed 10 be trying TO reform, just
as it really is, with all the frills ripped off
of it and the starch taken out and he did
not understand that fact. He thought he
had come in contact with some horribly bad
specimens. Ii was unfortunate

KILLED BY IMPROPER FOOD.
DR.. Seaman Criticises American Sol.
dierH' RatiOns,

NEW YORK, Nov 16.-Dr. Louis L. Sea-
man, late surgeon major, engineers, United
States Volunteers, has returned from the
Philippines, where he has been for six
months. DR.. Seaman served with his regi-
ment in Porto Rico and on his return OPEN
ly discussed the rations issued to the United
States army there and its adaptability to
warm climates. The doctor went to the
Philippines at his own expense and initia-

army surgeon, to facilitate his study.

that the American army is supplied with

We are glad to see what appears to be
an official denial from Rome that the
Vatican has of late sided with the Bosrs
against England. 1t is true that the 'Os-
servatore Romano" the organ Of the
papacy for some purposes, has been writ
ing bitterly against Great Britain, but it
is asserted on authority that the Pope is
not in sympathy with its utterances, and,
on the contrary. wishes well to the British
arms. 1t would be strange II it were not
SO. How Rome could feel sympathy for
a people who deny~the commonest civil
rights to Catholics, including the right of
worship, would be quite incomprehensible.

Brazil has taken advantage of the hostile

observed. these Central and South Ameri-
