SEQUEL TO A TRAGEDY.

We all remember that awful day in
the Philippines when the natives were
''shot down like jack rabbits" Luzon
was soaked in human gore that day.
The swamps were as red as an Eisele
lanscape, and the rivers We're clogged
with the bodies of good Tagals." 1t
was a fearful time. and we all Won
dered how the boys managed to make
the slaughter such a wholesale business
upon this particular occasion.
The secret is out. Yesterdays dis
patches from Vancouver contain the Sc
quel to this tragedy of tragedies. Sen
ator Beveridge of Indiana and his es-
timable wife were in the vicinity of
the firing line Bullets from the dis
tant ranks of the Filipinos went clear
over the American army and battered
about the carriage occupied by Mrs.
Beverage. Her escort turned the equip
age and began a hasty retreat Then
the plucky helpmeet of the youthful
great man pulled from the mysterious
region of her dress pocket a beautiful
pearl-nandled, silver-mounted, violet
scented revolver of about the calibre of
D. and, holding it aloft with the muz-
zle pointing in the direction of the
skulking insurgents, she turned her
head and pulled the trigger five times.
Without pausing to see the havoc
wrought she continued on her way to
Manila
With powerful field glasses it was
possible for the Americans to witness
the terrible work of those tiny bullets
that plowed their way through a dense
head wind. Natives fell as if stricken
with a plague. Many of them died
from sheer fright. Others were paral-
wed with establishment. The survivors

SOME GOOD SHORT STORIES.
Paid the Church Debt.
0ohio State Iournall

(Ohio State JOurnal.)
He lives in Columbus and is known to
have thousands. But his reputation by
no means would justify his being called
a philanthropist
A week or two ago he went down in
the country to his old home" On his first
Sunday there he went to the old church
near the mill. Memories of the Sunday
mornings of his boyhood days flooded him.
days when he sat in the hot church and
listened to-the boys shouting while
swimming in the old millpond. His heart
on this particular Sunday morning was
grateful for all things and especially the
privilege of attending the Old church
again.
At the conclusion of the sermon the
minister asked the congregation for d
coEtr1outlon 10 pay of the church in
debtedness. When the steward" reach
ed the old Columbus miser whose reputa-
ton for stinginess had long been known
IN the little hamlet, the sanctimOnious
church official was somewhat startled by
being addressed:
How much is the entire indebtedness
on the church,
Upon being told. the would-be philan-
thropist, before the eyes of the congre-
CATION, took out his checkbook and foun-
tain pen and wrote check for the full
amount. The steward waited until the
check was safely deposited in the basket
before continuing the collection"
When the church was dismissed the peo-
pie fairly buzzed with the excitement of
discussing the payment of the church
debt by Mr.. Blank, the millionaire from
Columbus
And no wonder The debt was $3.50.

VANDERBILT is RECKLESS.

Assistant Secretary of the Treasury
Vanderlip should be made to walk the
plank. He is entirely too particular to
hold a responsible position under the
present administration. Men like Van
derlip are apt TO upset more campaign
milk in a day than the president is able
to extract from the udder of the federal
COW in a month. Ii was such an out
burst of indignation that upset Ayers
and Corbin's plans and placed General
Miles under the ban of presidential dis
favor. And it viii have to be stopped
or all the scandals of the administra-
ton viii escape from the Republican
strong box, even as the ills of humanity
escaped from the casket entrusted to
Pandora.
Mr.. Vanderlip reports that the chiefs
and clerks of the department loiter dur
ing working hours. gossip and read
newspapers, and that, in consequence,
they are almost two years behind in
their records. He not only exposed this
state of affairs, but publicly condemned
it and ordered a general reduction in
salaries among the various chiefs and
assistant chiefs.
1t is evident that young Mr.. Wander
lip is an honest man. Had be been at
the head of the army doubtless he
would have exposed the Aeef contracts
and criticised the treatment of the SOL
diers- Had he been prominent in the
interior department he might have de-
nounced the effort of certain politicians
to gobble the gilsonite deposits of Utah
under the guise of authority. But in
either case his official days would have
been numbered with the first piece of
chalk Chairman Hanna could have Sc
cured. AS it is, what shall be his fate?
We shudder to contemplate.

TWO VIEWS OF REID.

Whose lauds the present administra-
ton, palliates its errors, defends its
deals and excuses its surrender to
spoilsmen is patriot in the eyes of
Mr.. Hanna's subsidized press. Who
ever refuses to do these things, even
though he bear the wounds of war and
wears the uniform of the veteran. is a.
copperhead or some other object of
vituperation.
But this treatment Of adversaries is
rendered awkward by the fact that a
number Of the most prominent leaders
of the Republican party are criticising
many Of the acts and some OF, the poll
cies OF Messrs. Hanna and Mckinley.
However this does not deter the more
radical followers Of the administration
from giving an exhibition of their 10y
atty at the expense of their fellow par
tisans and, in some instances, at their
own expense.
Whitelaw Reid was great man till
his unconquerable disgust at the petty
political methods OF the president man
ifested itself in his great newspaper.
Then he became d mischief-maker and
a party outcast. This is what the Salt
Lake Tribune said of him yesterday:
.'The Herald cites the sneer of White
law Reid at the appointment of Mr. Root
TO be secretary OF war as an evidence of
how Republicans generally feel II is not
an evidence. The Herald further volun-
teers the information that Mr.. Reds
concern is not the slightest for the present
administration, or Tor any man, but for
the permanent welfare of his party or
ganization- Our neighbor does not know
Mr.. Reid. Mr.. Reid IS the gentleman that
ftrnu
Garfield and the resignation Of Conkling
and Plat from the senate of the United
States. Ever since anything that Platt
approved Reic has objected TO. He is not
q big man in any sense of the word, and
when II comes to spite work, he is as
reasonless as virago."
But il knows better. It hasn't been
very long since Mr.. Reid received a
nomination to the second place on the \
Republican national ticket That hap
pened since the Conkling- Garfield Incl
dent which our neighbor has resurrect-
ea to use against him now. It was ten
wears later that the Salt Lake Tribune
paid the following tribute to his par
tisan loyalty and worthiness:
..Afr Reid IS bright man and a good
Renubiican. He is at the head of the
great Republican paper OF the country.
Bur for thai very reason We doubt the
strength OF MS though II IS
in every way personally fit and deserved.
What we fear IS that every utterance of
the New York Tribune will be raked over
FOR the last ten years and that Mr.. Reid
or his candidacy viii be held responsible
for every obnoxious utterance found
therein whether he Is the author OF it or
not But the nomination is a worthy
one: the nomination could not possibly
have gone to one more worthy
All it wants to know Of a man is
whether or not he endorses Mckinley,
Mark Hanna and all of their policies. |
