Sad rJeUs From Cavite.

The following extract from a letter
written by J. p. Cooper, dated Cavite,
Philippine Islands, February 4th, to
Chas. GrundiJZ of this place viii nc
doubt be of great interest 10 the many
friends of VIII Bruce, who have been
a~nxiously awaiting further news con-
corning his disappearance:
L have some bad news to tell you:
vii Bruce and another one of our boys
by the name of Honeyman, got a pass
to go over to San Rogue, which is a
native town and in the hands of the
Insurgents (they got the pass last Mon
day and this is Saturday, and We're
taken prisoners as spies.
AT first the Insurgents denied any
knowledge Of them. We found where
they were in prison. and Captain Lin
scott went over and told an Insurgent
officer that he knew where they were
and he wanted them liberated, which
they promised to do. Now they say
they are going to hold them and deal
with them as spies. 1t has been in the
hands of General Otis for a day or two.
Don't know what he is going to do
about it.
"Our boys, and in fact all the SOL
diers on the island are terribly worked
up oven it.. We are afraid they have
been made away with. If they have,
- nd xra bn va q " ron h1o with tha In
surgents. God help every black b
that we can draw a bead on. All it
needs now is for the order to be given
to march against them, and if the boys
have been hurt they will be terribly re.
venged. We are hoping for the best.
but cant find out anything definite.
The Insurgents claim they were too in.
Quisitive and We're asking too many
questions.
On the morning of the 9Th he wrote
Il told you yesterday l thought trouble
was not far distant. They have beer
fighting on the outpost over on the
Manila side all night and we can still
hear the firing from here this morning
We fear the worst for Bruce and Honey
man. From present indications thinI
we will have a hand in it before man
} hours. or a day or SO at the least"
A letter was received here yesterda
, from Ike Fox, dated Manila, Feb, lit
nearly one week after the above let
+ ter was written-which stated: POO
Bruce was taken prisoner by the Insul
gents and his body cut all to pieces,

Something tor Nothing.

We have heard Of the boy who
wanted to eat his cake and kept. too,
but never before Of a business mar
who sold his goods and then gave the
purchaser credit 70" the amount paid.
To learn about this send to James
Nicks Sons. of Rochester. n. Y, who
agree to do this in their guide. The
Golden Wedding edition of Nick's Gar
den and Floral Guide is certainly an
artistic work, with its twenty-foul
pages autographed in %colors, and
nearly one hundred more pages filleG
with handsome haIf-tOne illustrations
photographed from flowers, fruits, veg.
etables and homes.
While this guidei is really too expen
sive to give away, they give it with I
due bill for - cents worth of seeds fol
only Is cents. Another new feature j
the doing away with the old packet 0
vegetable seeds and stating the guam
tity in each case, the buyer getting
more for his money.

Havana, Cuba, Feb. %. = Gen.
Comets reception at Matanzas, last
night, was the most enthusiastic Of
his entire journey. As he approaches
Havana the receptions increase in
fervor.
At Matanzas, tho last stop before
Havana is reached, an immense crowd
had assembled at the railroad station.
When the general alighted from the
train he spent 20 minutes in embracing
old and new friends and then mounted
horse and porceeded to the city. The
streets leading from the station to the
principal square were lined ON both
sides with soldiers of the Eighth
Massachusetts Regiment. A procession
was formed as follows:
An American military band; troops
of the Second Cavalry; Cuban cavalry;
Gomez and Sanger with their stats
Gen. Maxine Gomez, with an escort
carrying his flag; Junta clubs and
citizens.
The procession passed under many
triumphal arches with patriotic in
scriptions, and numberless flags and
banners waved from the houses. Women
in the balconies of the houses threw
flowers at Gen. Gomez, who gallantly
kissed his hand to them.
From the palace, where Gen. Gomez
was entertained, he reviewed the
American troops, who defiled in the
plaza, and afterward dined with city
dignitaries and attended ball given
in his honor. Yesterday Gen. Gomez
received the welcoming committee Of
the Cuban National Assembly and
talked with them for two hours. Later
in the day he called on Gen. Wilson Of
the United States Army. Last night
he was the guest of honor of the Junta
Patriotica at banquet.
Gen. Gomez Is expected to leave Ma
tanzas on Thursday. He has tele-
graphed to Editor San Miguel of La
Lucha that he would go first to Mariana
to meet the National Assembly, and
enter Havana on Friday, February Gath,
which is the third anniversary of the
beginning Of the revolution.
Governor General Brooke has made
the following appointments. Director
of Justice, Lorenzo G. Del Portillo :;
Director of Public Instruction, Nicolas
Heredia Mota Chief of Notaries,
Juan Llitotas.
