INLET "a Severe Defeat ON the Enemy

Manila, March 21.-It is reported on
hitherto reliable authority that
Aguinaldo is taking extreme measures
to suppress signs calculated to cause
a cessation of hostilities. Twelve ad-
herents of the, plan of independence,
residents Of Manila, have been con-
demned to death because they wrote
advising surrender, and all loyal Fill
pinos have been called upon to perform
the national service OF dispatching
them.
On Friday last Gen. Lagarda visited
Malolos for the purpose of advising
Aguinaldo to cease hostilities. He
argued with the insurgent leader and
attempted to convince him of the folly
of his persistence in the face of over
whelming odds. Aguinaldo was furious
at the advice and ordered Gen. Lagarda
to be executed Immediately. The un-
fortunate general was promptly decap-
itated.
Yesterday morning Gen. Wheaton,
after withstanding a night attack,
bravely determined at daybreak 10
teach the rebels lesson. He attacked
the enemy and started in as though to
run them off the island. Result of the
days fighting was the loss of 200 killed
to the Filipinos and many hundreds
more wounded, while the Americans
lost three killed and twenty wounded.
The insurgents were chased fifteen
miles down the shores of the lake TO
San Pedro Tunoaon.
During this exciting foot race the
insurgents and Americans burned ten
villages, the former applying the torch
when forced to retreat and the latter
dislodging by flames persistent guerril-
las who fired upon the troops from the
windows OF houses.
Among the dead are several who
were previously reported as wounded.
Yesterdays casualties were as fol-
lows:
Twenty-second Regiment - Captain
Frank p. Jones, Company e; Privates
Young. Arenson and Yunt of Company
d; Rice, Pasmir, White, Ellis, Nor
gan, Schunder, Coumpholz and Porte,
Company E; Edwards. Company K;
Ronfer, Company G, and Corporals
Comeinerge and Nelson, Company NJ.
Washington volunteers - Privates
Wess and Bartlett and Corporal
Waters, Company d, and Corporal
Dricklin, Company X.
Oregon volunteers-Private Brown,
Company NJ.
Minnesota volunteers - Private
Bruce, Company c.
All the above named are more or less
seriously wounded.
In an interview at the front yester-
day Gen. Wheaton said that he esti-
mated the total losses of the insur-
gents in killed and wounded during
the last week at 1000. The policy
seems to be to continue hammering the
Filipinos daily until they are willing
to lay down their arms and quit.

Attsmn, to Rescue Fail.

Leadville, Col, March 21.-The two
men who have been imprisoned in the
Bonair mine for the last ten days have
been again disappointed. 1t was con-
fidently expected that the rescuing par
ty would reach them yesterday, but
when the attempt was made to connect
the rescue shaft with the level in which
the men are it was found unsafe to do
so. It will now be necessary to sink
about forty feet further. which will
take three or four days more. The
men are we'll and in good spirits.

HARD WORK OF FLYING BRIGADE
FnipInos Claim to he Able to Continue
Fighting for Years

Hongkong, March 21.-A correspond
ent of the Associated Press at Manila
says: AN army has seldom operated
under harder conditions than have
been encountered by the American
flying brigade The country the
American troops have traversed is in
tersected with lagoons, narrow and I'M
fordable rivers, and bamboos so thick
that the enemy can not be seen 100
feet distant.
"One of the prisoners captured by
the Americans says the Filipino lead
ers boast that they can continue such
a war for years, depending on the
American forces being weakened daily
by 20 men killed, wounded, or in
valided.
Some of the high officials here
think that 10000 re-enforcements are
needed, as the troops now on this ISL
and are hardly more than required to
maintain a line around Manila and
police the city"

Now that the time has come for the
German fleet to proceed to anther sta

all pleasing to the Anglo-Amerlcan

the fact that there are other nations
to which we owe duties, and that the
line OF patriotism is that of friendship

curiosity. What impressed me most
strongly about him was his extremely
youthful appearance. He did not lcok

juvenility was borne out by his stoop-

seemed like a fragile, uniformed boy.
His features were distinctly Mongolian,

rather thick. He had no sign of beard

DUMMBRsTON.


Fred Fl. Spaulding is the only young
man born in Dummerston who has chosen
the practice of law as profession since
the time of Pliny f. Walker, who was a son
of Deacon Daniel Walker of this town,
and who was admitted to the Windham
county bar in September, 1851. Mr.
Spaulding has been studying law for about
three years with the law firm of Waterman
q Martin at Brattleboro. On Oct. 2
he went to Albany, N. Y, and entered
Union college for the purpose of continu-
ing his law studies in that institution. He
is registered in the senior class and will
remain 16 weeks. The college is located
only few blocks from the capitol and the
students have free access to the state build
ing and an opportunity to visit the courts,
assembly, senate, state library, rooms of
the secretary of state and attorney gener-
al. Evidently Mr.. Spaulding is making a
thorough preparation for the work of his
chosen profession and we bespeak for him a
successful career as a lawyer. Not only is
his record thus far in life very commendable
but he has inherited many of the charac-
teristics of his famous ancestor, Captain
Leonard Spaulding, very brave and reso-
Lutte soldier of the French and Indian war
and the war of the Revolution. Captain
