A proclamation issued in the Spanish

the United States is supreme and then
goes on and offers the people everything

their property, light taxation and a lib

The orders to soldiers protecting all
property within; the, lines are to treat
all natives in q courteous manner, try
ing TO give them to understand we wish
them to come back to their old pursuits
and that they can depend on our pro-
lection. This Is causing good feeling
among them and the result we all hope
will be for the speedy breaking up of
the rebellion, which is on its last legs.

Company E has fifty privates doing
duty, and tWenty-four of. these mount
guard every morning, which puts US on

this country Is not Of the lightest.
We have one outpost about one-ha1f

divided into three reliefs of seven men
each, one post on east end Of bridge, one
on south end of camp, on track on north

KICKING ON CANNED MEAT.

to us lately is Of a very poor grade and

His company is G, of Red Wing, and the

want him here and will keep him as long
as possible.
Mail came this p m. and brought us
much interesting news about the efforts
that are being put forth to get us home
This the boys appreciate and hope that
the movement may be successful and our
return soon.
April 10, 1S99-In Camp-Company E was
called out early yesterday afternoon to
support Company c, who had, with D,
gone to the assistance of a company from
Oregon, whose outpost was fired on. We're
kept out in all about four hours. Some
yolley firing was done on the skirmish
line, but casualties are reported.
George Theisen again came to the aid
Of the company. and yesterday brought
out four kegs Of beer smoking tobacco,

Harry Montgomery has returned from

Capt. Spear has his quarters here and is

AS I close the impression among us all
seems to be that an advance will be made

all and give us a change from the mo-

HORRIFYING SCENES.
Fifty-Eight Bodies of Hurricane
Victims Recovered.

VICTIMS recovered.
VICTORIA, B. c., May 20-ShortIy be-
fore the just arrived steamer Miowera
left Sydney for this port the cutter Mys-
terry returned to Cooks Town from the
scene of the recent disaster by hurricane
on the North Queensland coast by which
practically every vessel engaged in the
pearl fishery was wrecked, and much
property lost afloat and ashore. The
sights that met the eyes of the relief
expedition along the desolated coast were
herrifying beyond description. In one
place, where a picturesque fishing vii
lage with a population of 800 had stood,
neither house nor tree nor living thing
was left. The site of the little settle
ment looked like new plowed land, and
the survivors among the, fisher folk had
fled for safety to an inland town twelve
miles distant. There and further along
the coast, mangled bodies OF men and do
nestle animals We're found. Several were
rescued with some difficulty, Wedged IN
the branches Of trees that had defed the
storm, where they had been blown from
distances as great as a quarter of mile
The Mystery's officers and crew recovered
in all f1fty-eight bodies of which eighteen
were identified and claimed by mourning
relatives. Of the remaining forty, thirty
six were natives, whose remains were
given respectable burial in one great
trench.
The Mystery party found large fish and
wreckage thirty and forty feet above
high water level, and trees and vegeta-
ton leveled for upwards of fifty miles
along the coast. An official report saws
that eighty-six vessels were wrecked,
and that 1856 people lost their lives.

was prepared OF stewed chicken and

was the guest of honor.
The camp this afternoon looks more like
a Gypsy settlement than the camp OF SOL

Every squad has its own fireplace for
cooking purposes and from the center Of
the dining halls hang great tempting
punches of bananas and here and there
can be seen delicious nangoes within a
day or two of being ripe. We are about
six miles from Malolos, which was taken
this morning, and at this writing the
troops are three miles beyond and RAPIDLY
making the distance greater.
BIGAA IN RUINS.
April THE town of Bigaa before the
scene Of hostilities had advanced this far
was a place of probably 5000 people,
mostly Chinese and natives, and I should
consider it one of the thriving business
cities of the interior. Situated on the
railroad and only few miles from tho
sea coast, which is reached by a fine
river, wide and deep enough for naviga-
ton, it must, with it's rich rice fields and
fine fruit plantations, have been prosper
Gus. The town today, however, presents
much different appearance. A large
portion of it has been burned to the
ground, only few of its best buildings
being left standing and these are nearly
as good as destroyed, being Utterly torn
to pieces by the insurgents in their search
for loot. The church and home of the
priests, which are near the center of the
town, were spared.
great many of the native huts are
still standing and most of these have
large rice bins in the rear, which are full
to overftowing.
The groves of bananas and plantalns in
the immediate vicinity have suffered
great deal from the fires.
The natives have commenced coming In
to town and taking up their old places Of
abode, or some ones else, and do not
seem to understand the American sys-
tenn of doing business worth cent. They
can't understand why 1t is that they are
allowed to come back to the place where
few days ago they were fighting
against US and given the privilege to
roam around at large and enjoy other
peoples products.

OVATION TO THE THIRTEENTH.
Regiment received orders yesterday at
p. m. to rendezvous at the deposito and
from there we marched to our present
camp, Il distance of thirteen miles, arriv
ing here at 1870 last night, weary lot,
but thankful that we had piece of
ground on which to rest.
The men carried all equipments and the
march from the time we entered Manila
till We passed through was more of a
home coming than anything else. If we
had any doubt of what the people of Ma
Mia think of the Thirteenth it was dis
PEELED last night. The people all along
our line turned out and yelled themselves
hoarse, Spaniards shouting, Minnesota
mucho bueno" natives from their houses
waving old glory in the faces of the men.
Then we passed a company of Nebraska
boys who cheered us to the echo, and as
we passed the prison Maj. Bean and his
wife, who were reviewing the process
sion, were cheered by each company as
it tramped by them on into the country,
and at last at Caloocan, wnere we have
enjoyed we'll earned rest of six hours.
