Gardiner Upham, Windham's CEN
tenarian, is dead. A few weeks ago
the entire town gathered at the little
village church to celebrate with fitting
ceremonies the 1O1st anniversary of
his birth. Since that time Mr.. Upham
has gradually failed, though retain
ing to the last his remarkable mental
faculties. He was born in Guildford.
May 2, 1898, and the family moved to
Windham in 1904. There to use his
own words, he has been farme r,a
town officer, abolit ionist, whig and
republican, and useful in church and
state.
Parties in the interest of the Inter
national Paper company, which con-
trolls all the important mills in the
United States, have bought large
area of land in the southern part of
the state and have op tions on other
large tracts. The purchases include
the Flynn, Hatch and Peterson tract
of 5000 acres, the Bacon tract of 5000
acres and the Montague tract of sew
eral thousand acres more. This tract
of land is situated in the towns of
Sunderland, Stratton,
Winhall and Peru and is about Is miles
long by four miles wide. The land is
thickly covered with timber of spruce
and hard woods, which are to be used
for pulp. A railroad will probably be
constructed to carry the wood to the
pulp mills in various localities.

SCHURMAN ON THE FILIPlNOS.

| President Schurman of Cornell Uni
commission. has given some facts and
| opinions concerning the Filipinos
| which will command attention. He
says the Philippines are not nation,
out an archipelago with Heterogeneous
tribes, speaking more than sixty diff
ferent languages, having ouly this in
common that they belong to the Ma
layan race. While many of the tribes
are small, there are six, at least, of
which each has population of more
than 25O, 900. These are all civilized
and Christianized. There is a large
Mohammedan population in Mindanao
and there are many tribes in the
mountains composed of savages, pure
and simple. While the rebellion
against the authority of the United
States is almost wholly revolt of the
Tagalogs, the other tribes are not al
lies Of the United States. AS a whole
they hold aloof, and are Inclined to be
suspicious of the white race. Every
intelligent Filipino believes that the
United States is responsible for the
government of the islands, and looks
to US to restore order. President
Schurman thinks one step towards
peace IS for congress to establish some
form of government for the Philip
pines, and put it in force wherever it
is possible, without delay. He advo-
Gates home rule under an intelligent
oversight, and thinks that while the
development of the Filipino will be
slow, it is sure to come. Exchange.

very proud of the Olympia and we
wanted enough time at our anchorage
to clean her up and make her look
spick and span."
Friday afternoon the great naval
parade started. At one O'Clock sharp
the squadron got under way. 1t was
a most inspiring moment when the
column started up the harbor, land the
great naval parade began to be real
ity. First came the police boat patrol,
which was the apex of wedge spread
out to the freboats New York and
Van Wyck, which followed abreast.
The steamer Sandy Hook, having on
board the mayor and the representa-
tives of the city of New York, with
the standards of the city flying from
the fore and aft stalls, steamed along
side of the Olympia, the flag ship of
Admiral Dewey, on the port side.
Along followed the armored cruiser
New York, the flagship of Rear Ad-
miral sampson; the two first class
battle ships Indiana and Massachu-
setts, grim and menacing, in the order
named. steamed alongside, followed
by the battle ship Texas, with the
cruiser Brooklyn astern. The Chica-
go, Admiral Howison's flag ship, was
last in the line of great war ships. In
the rear of these modern engines of
war came the Lancaster, the type of
the old navy vessels of the Hartford
class. Then followed the gunboat
Marietta with the auxiliary cruiser
Scorpion behind. Abreast steamed
the torpedo boats Porter, Du Pont,
Ericsson, Winslow and Gushing, and
following them came the natty reve-
nue. cutters Manning, Algonquin,
Gresham, Window, and Onodaga.
Next in line were the transports Sedg-
wick, Mcpherson and Mcclellan and
after them came along the hospital
ship Missouri. Then began the civic
and maratine aspect of the big naval
parade. Flying the flag of New York
and having on board the representa-
tives of the naval militia came the
steamer Monmouth followed by other
boats with members of the naval mil
itia. In single file came the General
Slocum and Glen Island with the
members of the general committee
of citizens, the Mount Hope with the
legislative branch of the city govern
ment, the Warwick with the heads of
the city departments and the Mat
teawan with members of the press.
Then followed, two abreast, ninety
eight graceful, magnifcently appoint
ed yachts, led by the Corsair, the flag
ship Of Commodore J. Pierpont Nor
gan and Sir Thomas Lipton's yacht
Erin. After the yachts, came one
hundred of the merchant marine,
with three flag ships in single file,
them five steamers abreast and the
in two files. The third and
last division of the parade consisted
of more than one hundred handsome
ly decorated tugs, yachts, pleasuse
crafts, etc.

Mark that when San Francisco
heard Of Dewey's arrival at New
York her guns doomed forth an Admi-
rails salute, and the war ships near by
answered gun for gun: that every
whistle roundabout blew itself hoarse,
and that every bell on high rang to
the point of cracking. Never since
history began has a hero been SO
widely welcomed home.-JouTndI.
