Gets Through Our Lines Between
 Young and Wheaton.
 Aguinaldo has escaped between Gen erals Young and Wheaton. General Young is pushing toward Bayambang.
 Officers and soldiers arriving in Caban- atuan from General Lawton's force de- scribe the campaign as one of great hard ships. Many men dropping out sick were left at various towns without adequate supplies and attendance, some of them making their way back across the terri ble roads. A number of horses were dy- ing, and many of the soldiers and even some of the officers were marche1g ahead half naked, their clothes having been torn to pieces in getting through the jun gles. Some of the men were reduced al- most to breech clouts, and hundreds were barefooted, their shoes being worn out, and all were living on any sort of provisions. Bread was rare, and carabao meat and bananas were the staples.
 General Lawton foresaw that the cam paign would involve such hardships, but he considered it the quickest and cheap est way of ending the war.
 The last number of the Independencia, published in Tarlac. the day before the Americans entered that place, contained Respondent valedictory, entitled "Adieu." The tone shows the writer con sidered the game played out. He said:
 Obliged by circumstances, we have found it necessary to interrupt with this number the pleasant labor of defending our ideals and interests We take leave of the public and our readers with grief most profound and bitterness most cruel"

Robbers on Lake Shore Train.

A daring attempt was made on Thurs day by gang of m,-ked men to rob the Lake Shore train No. ? between Erie and Conneaut. The robbers boarded the train at Ashtabula, where it stopped to take water. At a lonely place called Dock Junction, two miles east of Con- neaut, the express messenger stepped from one car to another for the purpose of checking mp some express bills, when one of the gang sprang into the car and broke into several packages, but before he could get to where the money envel- opes were the messenger returned and, seeing the robber, gave the alarm. The other members of the gang. who were standing guard on the platform of the west end of the car, then pulled the bell rope, and when the train stopped the rob bers jumped off and made their escape in the darkness.

Dnappreciareo.

The teacher of a district school in Maine tells story that reminds me of Mary and her little lamb, only 1t is of Joe and his little dog.
 Joe was a boy about 8 years old and was devoted to a small, lank puppy. Out of school hours boy and dog were inseparable, and Joe apparently could not reconcile himself to the necessity of leaving the dog at home. For sev- eral mornings the teacher allowed the puppy to remain at Joe's feet under the desk.
 Then there came a day when the small dog could not be kept quiet. but frisked about, to the delight of the school and the dismay of the teacher.
 "Joe," she said firmly, you must take that dog out"
 Joe looked at her mournfully, but picked up the pup and, with its head against his cheek. started for the door. The boys feelings were evidently hurt, but he said nothing until he reached the door; then, giving his teacher re- proachful look, with a pitying glance toward his dog, he said slowly, And he's named for youv'-Youth's Com nanion.

HoIcomb Ran Ahead of HI. Ticket.

Interest in the election in Nebraska last week was revived when tabulat- ing of returns began at the state capi- itol, inasmuch as it shows that Holcomb (fusion) ran far ahead of his ticket and that the Republicans have possibly elect ed one of the university regents, while the majority for the second fusion candi- date will be less than 5000. The count in GA counties out of the 90 in the state gives Rich (fusion) for regent 81 1,SS7; Ely (Rep), 81.587. The same counties gave Holcomb a majority of II ,5S3.

Panama Wants to Be Annexed.

An application for annexation to the United States has been made by the state of Panama, one of the political sub divisions of the United States of Colom- bia. The state of Panama has refused to recognize the authority of the Colom- bian government, and there has been much internal trouble on that account. So far, however, the state has not been able to establish an independent govern ment, and as it has no sovereign rights the United States cannot regard the ap- plication. The state of Panama em- braces geographically the isthmus of that name and is very important part of Colombian territory.

 A mother with dead babe in her arms came to the god Siya and asked to have her child restored to life. The god Siva said to her, You go and get Il handful of mustard seed from d house in which there has been no sorrow and in which there has been no death, and will restore your child to life" So the mother went out, and she went from house to house and from home to home looking for a place where there had been no sorrow and where there had been no death, but she found none. She went back to the god Siva and said: My mission is a failure. You see, haven't brought the mustard seed. I can't find place where there has been no sorrow and no death" "Ohp' says the god Siva. Understand, your sorrows are no worse than the sorrows of others. We all have our griefs, and all have our heartbreaks."

DAWES ON THE FINANCES.


Declares the COuntry's Present Com
dition Sound and Stable.
Chicago, Dec. 2S.- Comptroller of the
Currency Charles G Dawes passed
through Chicago yesterday en- route for
Springfield. where he will address a
gathering OF state Republicans. Con-
cerniug the recent financial panic and
present conditions he said:
"rhe general financial condition of
the country as far as can be Judged
by the banking situation, is sound and
stable The recent furry in the spec
ulative centers of the east was a nat
ural sequence of the condition of last
summer. when the west did not need
its capital and deposited it in the banks
of the east in order to procure inter-
est on its credit balances The i'm
mense accumulation there stimulated
illegitimate speculation on stock eX-
changes and bubbles of credit were
blown which could not but burst at
the first disturbance in an abnormally
cheap money market. This disturb
ance commenced when, in order to
move its crops and to furnish legiti-
mate industry with proper funds, the
west commenced to call for its own.
"The situation was also aggravated
by the London money market and the
prospect of gold shipments. The spec
ulators simply had to liquidate and the
legitimate demands of industry and
commerce had to be satisfied. There is
ample money in the country to provide
for legitimate business The business
of the country was never more pros.
porous nor the credit of the govern
ment better"

learn that there is at least one dreaded disease
that science has been able to cure in all its
stages, and that is catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure known to the medical
fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional dis
ease, requires constitutional treatment. Halls
Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system, thereby destroying the foundation of
the disease, and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and assisting

Consnmntion Cured.

BROUGHT BACK FROM THE GRAVE.
Last November Mr.. Joseph James,
painter, of 325 w. Pearl ST., Indianapo.
lis, Ind, was at deaths door with quick
consumption. Wasted to a skeleton;
his lungs a mass of liberation; his
death was hourly awaited by his doctor
and family. He was kept in constant
stupor with opium. A friend, thinking
to relieve his terrible cough, gave him a
bottle Of Brazilian Balm. Seeing its
wonderful effect, the doctor advised rs
continued use. Mr.. James soon after
dismissed his doctor, and depended
on the Balm alone. His recovery was
rapid and complete, and in February he
returned to work. His lungs are sound,
and his weight greater than at any time
in his life. His recovery is regarded as
almost a miracle.

The New henr VIII Not Open with n
Miners strike.
Altoona, Pa. Dec. 2S.-In the BIZ
luminous coal fields of northern Cam
brla and Clearfeld counties yesterday
several mass meetings of miners we're
held, the object of which was to create
sentiment in favor of higher wages.
II was expected that mass meetings
would be held all over the district, but
such was not the case The reason for
this was that the leaders of the Uni
ted Mine Workers and the conserva-
tive element of the mineys were op-
posed to them, because sne scale of
prices which every operator of any
note is now paying was made by the
miners, and holds good until April 1
next The conservatives argued that
they would be betraying the operators
II they demanded an increase now.
The meetings at Barnesboro, Hast
ings and smaller places we're well at
tended, but orderly and quiet. Ad-
dresses were made, but the tenor OF
the remarks was conservative and
cautioned against strikes. Meetings
We're held last night at these places
and delegates elected to the Indian
apolis convention next month. This
convention is to be a conference be-
tween operators and miners. None of
the Altoona operators have received an
invitation to attend
One thing is patent, there will be no
general strike at the beginning of the
new year, and the indications are that
there will be no disturbance after the
indianapolis convention

New York, Dec. 2S-At the trial of
Roland b. Molineux yesterday a pro-
test was made to Recorder Goff against
the policy of "shadowing" adopted by
the district attorney. The jurors
claimed that a detective had been as
signed to each member and that the
shadows" had allowed their zeal to
outrun their discretion. One of the
jurors told the recorder that he had
attended Christmas tree festival, and
that his every movement about the
tree, even the actions of his children,
had been closely watched The juror
said il was a veXation that was rapidly
becoming intolerable. Another jury
man objected to the actions of the de-
tective assigned to him in stealing up
to him while he was issuing orders to
his employees. Foreman Martin SEEM
ed to think that the entire range Of
the domestic and business economy of
the iurymen had been made the sub
ject of a close scrutiny by the am
bilious detectives. 1t is said that Re
corder Goff told the jurors that he
could do nothing for them, and that
they went away anything but pleased.
Assistant District Attorney Mcintyre
said that the precautionary action thus
taken was in the interest of justice and
the public good 1t is understood,
however, that orders will be issued to
the Shadows" to give the jurors as
little trouble as possible.
