OUR AMERICAN GIRL.

New York Press: Our American girl in
Paris often is called upon to demon
strate her ability to take care of her
self, and she does it sometimes with a
suddenness which is as much a surprise
to her as to the person or object calling
it forth.
One day Miss Kate r. and Miss Mar
garet g., the latter the sister of a we'll
known illustrator, were walking quietly
on their way home when there appeared
on the horizon three brave soldiers of
the republic. give TArmee' was writ
ten all over their c~ountenances as they
marched along, arm in arm, taking up
all of the sidewalk and looking ready to
crush beneath their little feet any worm
that wouldn't take itself out of their
way With speed. There is a strong an
tasonism between the American GIRLS
and the French soldiers. The girls des-
pise the soldiers and resent INC repel the
unpleasant attentions offered to them
frequently. This, of course, the Latin
sons of Valor never can forgive. They
showed, therefore,, not the slightest in
tention of moving aside an inch as they
came face to face with the two girls,

A FIGHT.

Austin, Tex, Dec. 12.-Tnformation
reaching here today is to the effect thar
on Dec. 3, the Yaqui ndian and the
Mexican troops, under Gen. Torres. had n
pitched battle near Rio Chico. on the va
qul river. The engagement was with the
man body of Indians, the Mexican forces
numbering some 1000 men. About fen

IN the mountains of the P~aphigochic riy-
er. The Mexican troops ATTEMPTED to
head the small bands off, but they were
unsuccessful and in a short time all of
them had Joined the main body of the
Indians. Evidently fearing that he
Mexican troops were preparing to invade
thelr camp, the Indians pushed the fight
ing themselves by attacking the Mexican
forces in their. camp.
The onslaught was vigorous, but not
very effective, as the Indians did not ad-
vance in asolid body. preferring their old
warfare OF man for man behind boulders
and trees. In this manner they, began
their attack on the soldiers camp and
according to export, the fighting was mosf
severe and lasted for a day and night
when the Indians withdrew, having sus-
tanned considerable loss.
The militia made several attempts IN

BY Col. Smith in a Village
Near MalasQui.
WILL BE EXECUTED SOON
AS an Example to Show the FilipinUs
That Guerilla Warfare Must Cease
There is Great Difficulty in
Chasing the Scattered Bands.

Manila, Dec. 12.-7:5O p. m.-Colonel
Smith. with a detachment of the Seven
teenth infantry, surrounded and cap
tured in a village near Malasqui a party
of guerrillas who had made their head
quarters there. The party included the
band which assassinated seven officials
at Malasqui for friendliness to the Amer
leans. All are insurgents, who became
bandits when the di~sintegration of the
Filipino army began. They kept the
country around Malasuui in a state of
terror for several weeks and committed
rs murders in less than that number of
days. When they We're caught they
We're promptly sent to General MacAr-
thurs headquarters at Bayambang by

an example, if convicted.
The whole country north of San Fer

OF troops around the cities and the closely
patroled stretches of railroad, swarms
with similar and Probably they will
be increased by men from Pillars army,
many OF whom are making their way
south to join the insurgent force in
Cavite province.
These people, for the most part, sue
ceeded in lodging General Grant, Colonel
Bell and Colonel Hoods troops, who are
securing the country for them. They
devote their energies to ambushing COM
missary ago and picking up soldiers
who leave their commands. Every day
some wagon train is fired upon or some
soldier disappears.
General Wheeler's secretary, Mr.. Gar
rett, was disarmed and slashed by a
holon,an almost within sight of head
quarters, his aSSailanf nl1rSuinp hin,
nearly into the headquarters building.
n policy of these ruffians is to make
the country u~ninhabitable for An,eri-
cans and to brighten natives into re-
training from giving assistance to the
Americans, as we'll as to compel the in
habitants to support the Instruction.
The brother of the president of linus
went outside the town the other day
to harvest some rice. He was captured
by his compatriots, accused of being a
spy ahd executed. n a small proper
ton of the inSurgent arms have been
surrendered. and the problem of sup
pressing this guerrilla warfare is any
thing but easy of solution. Some of the
American officers think it worse than
lighting Indians, owing to the difficulties
oi 'he county and the trouble in locating
the enemy, who resort, when hard
pressed, to the amigo dodge, and hide
their guns. Some of the Americans favor
the issue OF a proclamation declaring all
natives found with arms to be bandits,
punlshable as criminals, instead of being
treated as prisoners of war,
Information has been received at bead-
quarters that 500 Spanish prisoners have

Oily these are Spaniards released by Gem

BOSTON'S REPUBLICAN MAYOR.

Boston, Dec. 12.-After A spirited cam
paign the republicans won a victory in
the municipal election today. Thomas N.
Hart defeating eX-ConSressman Patrick
A. Collins, the democratic nominee for
by 1904 votes. The total vote Was:
Hart, republican. 10, So; Collins, demo-
Graf, So, 16l. The democrats, however, still
control both branches of the city gov
eminent, the board of aldermen, by a
small increased majority. The board
stands eight democrats, five republicans.
The city, as usual, voted for license.
The republican victory was in a great
measure due to the knitting Of Mr.. Collins
by the supporters of John r.. Murphy,
who was severely disappointed at their
favorite's defeat in the caucuses. A re-
markedly heavy republican vote also ma
terially assisted in overcoming the demo-
cratic plurality of 1000 in the last city
election for mayor in 1897 and OF 5000 at
the state election in November.

It Was a Most Brilliant
Piece of Work.
DAY0NETS ARE FEARED
By the Beers Who Care But Little for
the Artillery and Rifle Fire--Cause
OF the disaster to the Column of
Gen. Gatacre. IL

London, Dec. IS, 4:45 a. m.-With the
exception of Sundays sortie at Lady,
smith, which the morning papers are
unanimous in regarding as a brilliant
piece of work, there are no further adj
vices from the seat of war. A war of
flee dispatch reports that aIafeking was
safe up to Dec. 4th, but that the Beers
had been Smelling the town since Nov.
y, with increased effect. Rations had
been reduced, meat by half Il pound and
bread by a quarter of a pound, in view of
a probable long siege. Water, however,
was still plentiful.
The Beers fear the British bayonets.
This is Illustrated in the full accounts
now arriving of previous sorties. 1t
seems that in Sir Aichibald-lIunter's
sally from Ladysrnith to capture the
Boer sun the British did not carry bay
onets. While they We're storning the
Beers, suddenly aroused from sleep, rush
ed to the edge and opened an indiscrimi-
nate fire upon them. But just before
the British secured a footing on the top
OF the hill. some one among them shout
ed Xix ~bayonets and give them cold
steel At this the Beers turned and fled
into the darkness.
Little mention is made in the war Of
f1ce dispatches of horses, but it is UNI
derstood that the losses in this respect
nave been exceedingly heavy. Among
the officers alone from 20 to 80 per cent
of their mounts have been shot from
under them, the Boer tactics being to
shoot first at an officers horse and then
the rider when dismounted.
General Gatacre's disaster at Storm
burg has been blamed to lack of knowl-
edge OF the country, but, according to the
Daily Telegraph, when the war began
there were ma available maps at Cape
town and therefore it is probable that
General Gatacre is still without them,
The Times. while praising Colonel
Metcalfs brilliant feat at Ladysmlth,
expresses the opinion that relief being
now so near such a sortie was rather
perilous and it would be better for Gem
eral White to avoid them so far as DOS
Sole. Ht Z
The Morning Post again endeavors, edi-
torlally, to arouse the British people to
a recognition of the "serious nature of
the struggle and of the grave position
IN which matters now stand" 1t urges
the government to prepare immediately
to send more troops to South Africa. ~,
Lord Mayor Newton, the aldermen OIL
the city of London, and other prominent
