ESCAPE Filipino army
Seven American and Ninety Four
Spanish Prisoners Left Behind
in Rebel Retreat.
In Confusion Of the Evacuation of
Mangalaren Captives Make
Their Escape.
-Four American Deserters with the
Insurgents Organized Resist
ance Practically Abandoned.

Manila, Nov. 27.-The insurgents
have evacuated Manglaren, province of
Pangasanan, leaving seven Americans
and ninety-four Spanish prisoners. who
escaped in the confusion of the Filipino
retreat. The Americans are: p. j.
Green and George Powers, of the bat
tleship Oregon; Thomas Edwards and
Charles Bird, Sixteenth Infantry; Hen
Desmond, of the signal corps; and F.
II, Huber, of loves scouts. They re-
port that two Americans who were
unable to escape are with the insur-
gents. They are David Scott, of the
Twenty-fourth Infantry, and William
Sherry, of the hospital corps. Four de-
serters are with the Filipinos-Howard,
Martin and Ford, of the Californians,
and Watts, whose former regiment is
unknown. Howard is the only one
serving with the insurgents. He is a
captain of artillery.
Col Bell, of the Thirty fourth Volun-
teers, arrived at Mangalaren last even
ing, after hard march and fording of
the Agno. He found that Fowler s
company of the Thirty-third had occu-
pied the town for two days. The insur-
gents, Gen. Alejandrino commanding,
are retreating to the mountains behind
the town, short OF food and ammuni-
tlon: Besides this his men are deserting
and the six cannon, which the insur-
gents were dragging, impeded their
march.
Bell proposes to follow the Filipinos
until he can bring about a decisive
fight or they are scattered. Mangala-
rem was strongly fortified with rifle pits
commanding the roads, but the insur-
gents abandoned the place without fir
ing shot.
Moro Prisoners Rescued.
Manila, Nov. 27.-Three hundred
Spanish prisoners who escaped from
their captors before the American ad-
vance, including civil officials of rank
who have been in the hands of the Fill
pinos for more than a year and many
officers, have arrived at Manila during
the past week. Buencamino has been
lodged in comfortable quarters at the
police station with his family. Other
persons are not allowed to commune
cate with him. He is'classed as being
the most slippery parsonage connected
with the insurrection. He was a colo
mel in the Spanish army and a traitor
to Spain. At the time of the first in
surrection he tried to sell out to the
Filipinos and his present Imprisonment
excites no sympathy among his own
people, while the Spaniards think it is
mistaken leniency for the Americans te
refrain from shooting him on the Lune-
ta, the fate dealt out to better men in
the anti-Spanish uprising.

 T Have you ever observed at theater or concert that the people who are most deeply interested appear between the acts to be quite weary of the whole thing, yawning half 8 dozen times in suecession2 The reason of this is a physiological one. When your atten- tion is much absorbed in anything ex= citing or touching, you breathe in very. shallow manner, and take into your lungs only half enough air. Con- seqaently. when your attention is re faxed, you have to make Up the defi- eieney. This you do by yawning. which, after all, is only breathing Q very deep breath If you watch a man at a play, and observe that he is greatly moved by some incident, you may feel sure that when the scene ends he will sigh, and a moment or two later yaWn repeatedly. Of course the yawning, so far from being 8 sign of Weariness, is a proof of the HYeliest appreciation. Very often you will ob- serve the same phenomenon in a girl reading a novel.
