Low. Story from Lu.on.

A Spaniard named francesca Fer
nandez was held prisoner for many
months in San Francisco de Afalabon
by the rebels. Previous to his capture
by the insurgents he had become be-
rothed to n beautiful Filipino girl in
this city, who by considerable shrewd-
ness contrived to make his escape pos
sible. Her father acted as his guide
from San Francisco de Malabon to
linus, where both came Into the Amer
lean lines. The reunited lovers were
married last Thursday evening and the
girls papa made them wedding pres
cnt of u beautiful little home in Sam
paloc.

THE TRAFFIC IN FROGS.
Minnesota Leads In the Production Of
This Table Delicacy-Industry of
Recent Origin.

St. Paul and Minneapolis are the larg.
est frog markets in the world. The total
receipts for the past year from the frog
catchers OF the state exceeded 500, 900 doz-
en-, requiring the slaughter of no less than
100000 frogs. Five years ago the frogs
were shipped out of Minnesota. Now the
business amounts to upwards of $1,000 y
year. A wonderful industry has grown
up in st. Paul and Minneapolis in supply
ing the United States with frog legs.
Frogs are found In other states. of course.
In the South the supply will probably
never become exhausted but there are no
frogs like the Minnesota product for the
epicure. This is attributed to the clear.
cool water which Is found In Minnesota's
1000 lakes in which the frogs live and
have their nests.
Frog legs are purchased all through the
state by shippers from the two cities, and
this occupation gives employment to more
than 100 families, who make a good living
the year round. The professional frog
catcher can tell a frog pond at a glance
and they can locate the frog nests and se-
cure the greatest number in a surprisingly
short space of time.
Minnesota-caught frogs are known the
world over for their delicacy of flavor.

rlnEHARr's INDIAN PICTURES.

In the summer Of 1898 the Govern
ment Indian Bureau invited all tribes
Of Indians In this country to send dele
gates to an Indian Congress. and they
gathered from far and near with their
poni-s and tepees and gaudiest trap
pingS 4 the Exposition Grounds at
Omaha Never before had there been
and never again will there be such q
gathering. There were about five hun
dred OF them, some partly civilized, but
the 8sAater portion picturesque In
original savagery. Strange as 1t may
seem at this late day many of the In
dians declared that before coming to
Omaha taey had no idea what multi
tudes of white men there were or how
hopeless It was to try to stand against
them. This was probably the last time
that SO complete and spectacular
view Of the North American Indian
will be possible and those who had the
privilege of witnessing 1t are to be
counted fortunate. At the time of the
Indian Congress a prominent pho
tograDhsr obtained permission to take
the photographs OF the most noted
chiefs present and succeeded N obtain
ing collection which never will be-
equaled. Mr.. Rinehart, the photograph
er. copyrighted all these pictures and
placed In few art stores some hand
colored proofs which, Notwithstanding
their high price, sold at once. and these
Indian pictures have become the fad of
the year. The Chicago Great Western
Railway has succeeded at large expense
in obtaining from Mr.. Rinehart the
privilege OF reproducing the best four
Of these pictures, Chiefs wolf Robe"
"Louison." Hollow Horn Bear" and
Hattie Tom.' and have Incorporated
them in an art calendar for 1900. which
is pronounced the most artistic produc-
tion yet attempted. The heads are

reproduced in all their original colors.

suited for holiday gifts. Owing to the
expense but very small edition has

Assessment Notes.
H. B. WHITMAN.

The commissioners have instructed
Assessor Howell to list all pro pertv ut
its full cash value in the county. All
property belonging to widows over the
value Of $1,000, are to have the excess
assessed. This is good move, for in
the past, men who have passed the age
OF middle life, have had all their be-
longings transferred to their mothers
for no other reason than to escape tax
alton. Now if the property in the
widows name exceeds $1,000 it will
have to bear its share of the county's
burden.
The EXAMINER understands that the
commissioners have fixed the assessed
valuation Of live stock as follows:
Cattle $32 per head; sheep So; range
horses s.. The minutes does not dis
close any mention OF the matter, how.
ever.
