ANNAPOLIS. MD. THURSDAY. OCTOBER le. 1899

tful. Our next visit was to the Garden
OF the Gods. No one knows exactly why
this valley was named the Garden of the
Gods.
There is nothing especially garden-like
in its appearance, but, doubtless through
capt alterations artful aid the name
has become greatly popular, and would
now be foolish to quarrel with it or make
any attempt to change it after all these
years. There are. however, suggestions
on every hand that Titanic forces have
been at work here. and it requires but
little imagination to ascribe these innum-
cradle quaint. sculpturings, these mag
ni6cent architectural rock marks, these
grand and imposing temples not made
with hands. to the agencies Of the gods.
Here are to be found carved in stone by
those cunning instruments of nature
the wind. the rain. the snow, the frost.
the sunbeam curious and often gro
tesque figures, irresistibly suggestive of
forms of life. Now one sees the statue
of liberty leaning on her shield, with the
conventional Phrygian cap on her head;
over there is gigantic frog carved in
sandstone; yonder is pilgrim. staff in
hand. Groups of figures in curious atti-
tudes are to be seen on every hand. The
lion, the seal, the elephant. are all here,
and indeed, lively imagination is not
needed to discover in this Garden of the
Gods an endless variety of initiative
forms of human beings, of birds, beasts
and reptiles. All OF these figures possess
curious interest. and attratct wondering
attention, but the notable and majestic
objects are the "Great Gateway" and
the Cathedral Spires.

A LETTER FROM THE PHILIPPINES.
An Annapolis Boy Writes to his Parents
From Manila.

Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas B. McNew. oil
this city have received letter from their
son, Arthur b. McNew, of Company ID.
10Th Infantry, U. S. Volunteers. now in
the Philippine Islands, in which he
speaks in general of the country and the
inhabitants. He says: was made one
of the mounted sharp shootes OF our regi-
ment, and rank second on the list. and
for which have been presented with a
sharp shooters badge. | am much
pleased with country and don't think II
half as bad as it is made out to be in
America. Manila is a beautiful place
and has some of the finest churches and
residences in the world. Ii is "old as
the hills, and is known as the "Walled
City of the East" Its rivers are swift
and dangerous for small boats if one is
not familiar with the current. The
rainy seasons are now on, but one gets
used to it and don't mind it. One minute
it is pouring down raining and the mex,
the sun is out. During the day it is ex-
tremely hot, but at night is pleasant
Everything seems to grow here spon-
taneously. Flowers and fruits abound,
and Americans have to be very careful
how they indulge in fruits. or they will
get sick. Manila has some fine stores as
we'll as residences, The city and island
around about is full OF soldiers. The
natives are very treacherous and have a
hatred for American soldiers, and one
has to be on his guard all the time, or he
will be killed. The country is ragged
and jaggy, and they hide in the high
growth and swamps, and in caves. and
shoot off our men before we know it. II
don't do for soldier to be timid here, he
must be brave and courageous. We
have for leader of our squad an old In
dian fighter, of thirty years experience
who is cool, courageous man, and knows
the country thoroughly and the habits
OF the islanders.

An Apparent Fraud.

Last spring Morris Mahanna, his
brother James and Dan E. Bradley,
neighbor, bought each steel range of
a travelling salesman. giving their
notes on printed blanks, the amount
800. 90 being printed in and part of the
blank. The Mahanna brothers traded
each stove good stoves which they
were persuaded to throw out to make
place for the ranges-and the value in
both cases being endorsed on the back
of the notes as cash payments as of
the date of the deal. On James Ma
hanna's note an endorsement of 80. 90
was made and on that of Morris $500
was endorsed. as part payment. Mr..
Bradley had cared for the men, and
done other services valued at $500:
that amount was endorsed on his note.
Now there comes collector having
there notes, but by some process the
endorsements have been erased, and
demand is made for the full amount Of
the face of the notes. James Maha1na
paid his rather than have any trouble
oyer it, but when paid the collector
took special pains to write all oyer the
back of it, the words paid in full, paid
in full, repeating it several times.
Mr. Bradley paid $4,000 on his note
and refused to pay any more until he
uot cra6 H. for the erased endorsement
and Morris Mahanna declines to pay
his note until he is similarly credited.
He says he will stand q law suit be-
fore he will submit

Timely information given Mrs.
George Long, of New Straitsville,

and saved two lives. A frightful
cough had long kept her awake every
night. She had tried many remedies
and doctors, but grew steadily worse
until urged to try DR.. Kings New Dis
covery. One bottle wholly cured her,
and she writes this marvellous medi-
cine also cured Mr.. Long of severe
attack of Pneumonia. Such cures are
positive proof of the matchless merit
of this grand remedy for curing all
throat, chest and lung troubles. Only

The Threater From the Insids


That there. are five thousand theatres in
America and that one million and a half
people attend them each weekday night
spending seventy millions of dollars year
on theater-going, are the surprising facts
with which Mr.. Franklin Flyes, the dramatic
editor of the New York Sun, win open an i'm
portant series in the next issue of The Ladies
Home journal, The series will be called
The Theatre and its People, and will run
through seven numbers of the magazine,
lavishly illustrated with pictures made by
twelve different artists. The articles will
treat of every phase of the theater, the play
and the actor, froms the inside. and will tell
how theater is managed: the actual money
which plays have made: how an actor IS
trained and what the actors are actually paid
how play is written and what the authors
receive; how play is Iehearsed the first
night of play; how the actresses make up
and what they use; anu in a minute way the
two last articles will show what goes on be-
hind the scenes on the stage during a. per-
Torrance. 1t is curious facb that this will
be the first time that the theatre and the
actor have ever been exhaustiyely treated in
magazine and that there is no book on the
subject in existence.
