All Over n Circus.

CONNELLSVILLE, Pa, May 49,
The whole coke region was in Connells-
vile to see a circus, the good times in
the district bringing in fully 10000 peo-
pie.
All the candidates for Fayette coun-
ty offices took advantage Of the assem-
blage and circulated here. Many ex-
ira policemen and all the constables
from Uniontown were necessary to
maintain order and the lookup was
soon full of scrappers.
A report that two persons afflicted
with smallpox, of which there as many
cases here, were in the town, gained
credence, and a panic ensued in one
portion of the town.

Captain HOLLYWOOD of the Kansas Regi'
ment Gives His Impressions.

Tntnt OlNcb
CHICAGO, May 15.-Professor H L
Boltwood, principal Of the Evanston
high school, has received letter from
his brother, who is a captain in the
First Kansas volunteers, in which he
says that the Filipinos are brave fight
ers, but that he thinks Aguinaldo is
a fraud. Captain Boltwood was one
of the officers of the Kansas regiment
mentioned by General Otis for bravery.
The letter was written March u. and
was in part as follows
we are well fixed here. health, ra
tons and weather better than we could
expect. We see many glaring misrep-
reservations in the papers. These men
will fight, and statements to the con-
trary, some of them at least are made
by men who have never been on the
firing line l have seen our artillery
shell their works at not more than 400
yards, and before the smoke from the
shells had fairly risen they would send
a volley of bullets This is an every
day occurrence. Their men, in small
parties, have worked in our rear and
attacked when death was almost cer-
tain. Wounded natives have played
dead, only to kill our struggling men.
Their weakness seems to be a lack of
discipline and the worst kind of aim
and inability to stand our rushes-but
they keep coming and are putting up
what / call a good fight. They are
said to be fatalists, and no doubt this
idea Is encouraged.
"Aguinaldo, / think, is fraud, but
he makes his men believe he is all
powerful Our people may as well be-
lieve that they have a job on hand. |
believe our troops are invincible, but
the nature OF the country and the great
length of our lines make it impossible

GOD WAS HIS WITNESS.
An Unusual and Exciting scene In a
Criminal Court Room.


GREENSBURG, Pa, May 1S-Un-
usual circumstances led to prompt ac-
quittal of a prisoner in the criminal
court room here and created a sensa-
tlon among the lawyers and spectators
Charles Dowden was being tried on a
sharge of arson, it being alleged that he
attempted the destruction of a part Of
the village of New Alexandria recent
ly The discovery of the plot and the
arrest of Dowden created a good deal
of excitement at the time. 1t was al
legged that Dowden was not mentally
sound, and an argument was advanced
by his attorneys at the opening of the
trial that the defendant was subject
to epileptic fits.
The prosecution did not give much
credence to the claim and made out
strong case against the prisoner. Just
as the prosecuting attorney, Mr. Og-
den, finished his side of the case, the
prisoner was stricken with a spasm. He
fell to the floor and writhed in great
agony. The judge, the jury and law
yers were greatly agitated. Dowden
finally was revived, and the case ended.
The lawyers for the defense consid-
cred that the unfortunate prisoners
affliction as witnessed by the judge
and jury was sufficient evidence that
the man was not accountable for the
criminal deeds charged against him.
They would, therefore, offer no further
evidence, relying altogether on the in
f0l1 .T 4,,- in, vic
of the existing terrible condition of
their clients body and mind, they con-
sidered that a verdict of acquital would
be the result of their deliberation. The
judges charge was brief. The jury in
a few minutes returned with ver-
dict of acquittal

appropriated to the payment of the
Cuban troops to the extent that he will
not name other commissioners to re-

Governor General Brooke is to go
ahead with a new plan, Gomez remain
ing in an attitude of friendly inactv-
ity.
General Brooke will issue an order
for Cuban privates and non-commis-
stoned officers to meet at specified
places on specified dates to receive pay
ment. They are to be accompanied by
their company officers for the purpose
of Identification. Both General Gomez
and the governor general feel that the
privates ought not to lose their share
in the American gratuity merely be-
cause the schemes of certain high Off
GERS in the Cuban army have inter-
posed obstacles. The belief among the
Americans is that the company Off
GERS will assist in this way.
General Brooke's order will be dis
seminated through the newspapers
placarded in the postoffices and given
the widest circulation practicable.
General Gomez has written history
Of his relation to the army payment

ence that has passed between himself
and the governor general, and 1t is
intended to make his position clear to
