FAIRY TALES.

It is well to take these stories about
American soldiers deserving and enlist
ing in Aguinaldo's ranks with a good
deal Of salt. All sorts of stories and
rumors are circulated through military
camps in time of war and many of
them are startling, of course This
private soldier who returned to Lynn
and told the story doubtless believes it,
but it is not likely that he knows Of
any proof that it is true. Private SOL
diers are rarely in a position to know
what is going on among the enemy.
Such information is usually confined to
few Of the highest officers. Scouts
report to commanders and are not al
lowed to spread their information
through the camp. Every American SOL
der in the Philippines knows that the
insurgent army has been routed with
loss of life in every conflict; he knows
that the Americans will sure
ly conquer in the end he knows
that any American soldier fighting with
the natives will surely be killed or
captured in the end-not captured.

REPUBLICAN MUNICIPAL CONVENTION.

The result of the republican munich
pal convention will be highly satisfac-
tory to the republican voters. OF the
men who are nominated again for re-
election three have served with credit
to themselves and to their constituents.
Messrs. Back Kendall and Vaughan
represent large and important districts
of the city and they have been in past
years ever alive to the needs of the peo-
pie whom they represent. They have
earned the confidence of large number
who differ from them in political per-
suasion. That they have been success
full in Office is attested by the fact that
their constituents have seen fit to again
honor them with a denomination.
Allof the new members who have been
nominated for the board of aldermen
are representative republicans who will
have the endorsement of republicans in
general at the coming municipal cleo
ton. The six gentlemen nominated yes
terday in convention will be a majori-
ty of the board of aldermen for the year
1900. The minority party has also Sc
lected men for the board who are well
known and who have demonstrated
their ability in the city government.

RICE'S PROMOTION.

Few colonies have ever won quicker
advancement that Col. Edmund Rice
of the Twenty-sixth infantry, whom it
is reported Otis has recommended for
promotion. Likewise few colonies are
more deserving of the honor, The
news that has reached this country
relative to the campaign, has been
meagre. The army of correspondents
is following the campaign in Luzon
and little is heard about the fighting in
Panay.
But judging from what little has
been heard, Coils. Rice and Carpenter
have conducted the fighting with the
utmost energy and dispatch. Within
a month the insurgents have been
driven to the hills, their guns cap
tured and the rebellion practically
crushed Quick success merits quick
recognition.

DEATH OF WALLACE ROSS.

The death of Wallace Ross, the ia
nous oarsman, at the Charing Cross
hospital in London, Sunday, attracted
more than ordinary attention in Wor-
cester where his course as an oarsmar
was followed with interest for many
years. He was the close friend of the
elder Ten Eyck, and figured in some ex-
citing contests in earlier days with the
Worcester sculler. He began his career
as an oarsman in 1873 and kept it ur
uninterruptedly for more than 20 years
The death of Wallace Ross will be the
passing of one of the most able and
gentlemanly oarsmen that this country
has ever known.

father was not always a father. Those

mother more than its father, because

father isolates the male children from
their mother, her influence is much

that the former did not have so many
reasons for misbehaving. For one thing,
there were no such differences in the

to be found on the same street, and for
another, there were not so many chill

audience made up in enthusiasm what
it lacked in numbers

The Low Back'd Car" were among
the gems of the evening. William
Howard, who. teaches the violin at
Holy Cross college, played twice with
taste.
But Mr.. Ludwig was of course the
star of the evening. 1t is seven years
since he was heard in Worcester, and
nearly twelve since he sang at the
musical festival. He has no superior
in this country in the singing of Irish
songs and if his voice shows the wear
and tear of successful and arduous
years, there is the old vigor and
breadth and sentiment Beside his
Irish songs he sang Palms." in Eng
fish, and Gounods Nazareth" but it
was Molly Bawn" and THE Croppy
Boy" and Wearing of the Green" that
held the audience breathless and then
unloosened their enthusiasms. Mr..
Ludwig sang those hackneyed, dear old
ditties con amore, with a richness of
voice and a depth of sentiment that
made them works of art
Mr.. Ludwig offered this concert as a
token of his interest in st. Vincent's

Leon H. Vincent concluded his course
of, lectures on English literature last
night at Trinity church with a lecture
on Kipling and zangwill. He spoke
for just an hour, and charmed his hear
ers with his scholarly analysis of the
two authors. Kipling and Zangwill, he
said, in conclusion, are the two most
potent forces in English letters today,
yet neither is strictly English. Both
are exotic. Kipling has gone to the
east and made his own what was for
literary purposes an undiscovered coun-
try, while Zangwill has gone to the east
end of London, and created an equally
new and foreign type. Both have add
ed immensely to the pleasure of Eng
disappearing people.
