MANILA, Nov. 27.-1:25 p. m.-Buen-
canine, the brains of the Filipino in.
surrection. is locked up here in charge
of Brigadier General Edward B. Willis
ton, the provost marshal. When Tarlac
fell, Buencamino fled northward with
Aguinaldo's 3-year-old son and an old
lady supposed to be the mother of
Aguinaldo's confidential servant, Thorn
as Maxarine, and a guard of hundred
soldiers. Reaching the neighborhood
of the coast Nov. 10, Buencamino found
American soldiers on every side and
escape impossible. So he sought refuge
in little Pangsinian village. six miles
from Manaog, living in mean little
hut belonging to natives, who were
lukewarm towards the insurrection.
On learning his identity, some refugees
brought the news on Nov. 20 to
Colonel Luther B. Hare, commanding
the Thirty-third infantry, garrisoning
Manoag. After communicating with
General Wheaton, Major Marcus D.
Cronin's battalion surrounded the vii
lage Nov. 81. Buencamino's guard had
hidden their rifles and uniforms, and
Buencamino surrendered without re-
sistance. He had only few clothes
and $4,000 in gold. General Wheaton
kept the woman and child and sent
Buencamino to Manila on the trans
port Brutus in charge of Lieutenant
Smith of the Twentieth infantry. He
seemed cheerful and rather glad that
his troubles had eliminated. On the
Brutus, arrival at Manila, Lieutenant
Smith took Buencamino to the palace.
He was only few minutes in General
Otis Office. The prisoner told General
Otis that he desired peace and had for
long time used his influence for peace.
Aguinaldo, he added, was retreating
north with 200 men and two cannon.
General Otis then summoned Provost
Marshal Williston, who previously to
driving away with Buencamino, re-
ceived instructions to lock him up in
comfortable quarters and allow no per-
son to see him. ~
Buencamino is the chief author of
the Filipino constitution and most of
the state documents.

western Kansas and has sent out the
following interesting and instructive bull
letin upon that subject, which is Of such
Importance to the grazing regions Of this
state:
Kansas is pre"emlnently a prairie state.
The western half lies in the semi-arid re-
gion known as the Great Plains, and the
eastern portion is chiefly prairie. In all
such regions the grass vegetation largely
pre0ominates and determines the general
appearance Of the flora.
There are 154 kinds Of grasses known
to grow in Kansas. Some of these are
rare and Others are Of no agricultural inn
portanCe, while still others are weeds
There are several species that are Of i'm
portance from the standpoint OF grazing,
but at this time only few will be men,
toned. In short time a more complete
enumeration and description will be is
sued as a bulletin from the Experiment
Station.
Buffalo grass.--This common and we'll
known grass forms the bulk Of the native
vegetation on All the uplands Of the
western half Of Kansas. In the eastern
part Of the state 1t Is less common and
is being gradually driven out in many
places by other grasses. Buffalo grass
forms short, compact sod, the plants
usually being only a few inches high.
The color Is gray-green. The male and
female flowers occur on different plants,
which fact has given rise to the impress
sion that there is two kinds of buffalo
grass. The male plant produces flower
stalk few inches high, but the flower
contains only pollen, and no seed is
formed. The female flowers are in little
clusters close among the leaves, and It Is
here that the seed is produced. The grass
propagates extensively from creeping
stems and also from the seed. 1t Is too
short to be cut for hay, but 1t is the staple
grazing grass Of the plains, for both sum-
mer and winter.
Grama grass.--This is very common on
the same range as the buffalo grass, and
is found mixed with it, but is not so
abundant. Like the preceding, 1t Is a
Short grass" not usually growing tall
enough for hay. 1t can be easily dis
tinguished by the flower stalks, which
are about foot high, with two (sOme-
times one or three) little spikes Of flow
ers. These spikes are about an inch long,
one being at the end and the other a
short distance below. These spikes turn
easily with the wind and form miniature
weather vanes. This grass is found
throughout the western three-fourths OF
the state, but increases in abundance
westward until in extreme western Kan
sas, especially south Of tine Arkansas
river, 1t forms at least half Of the sod on
the uplands. It is a staple grass for
grazing purposes, and, like buffalo grass,
II cures for winter use
A second species Of grams grass 0c-
The Advocate and news., 1899-02-15

ours on stony or stertile hills and forms
the chief forage in such regions. It is
similar to the preceding, but with shorter
flower stalks, and occurs usually in
punches. 1t Is sometimes called black
gTama.
A third specie is sometimes called tall
grama or prairie oats. 1t has longer
flower stalk with numerous short spikes.
1t occurs throughout the state on prairie
in the east, but confined to ravines in the
west, 1t does not appear to be so much
relished by stock as the other two spe-
Cies,
Bunch grass (SpOrobolus airoldes)--
There are several kinds of grass that go
by the name Of bunch grass in different
localities. The kind referred to here is
the common forage grass of the Cimar-
ron valley and the western part Of the
Arkansas valley. 1t does not occur on
the uplands, and does not extend north
Of the Arkansas river valley.
Tall grasses.--There are several spe-
cles commonly Jumped together under
this name. The most important in the
grazing regions Of western Kansas are
the little blue-stem, often called bunch
grass in the region north Of the Arkansas
river, and big blue-stem, or simply blue
stem. These two are common in the
prairie region west Of the Mississippi
river and are gradually working their
way westward.
The conditions best adapted to the buff
falo and grama grass are the clay-loam
uplands where the sod is closely grazed
and well tramped. II the soil is stony or
sandy, or too moist, these grasses do not
thrive. II not grazed or tramped they
cannot usually compete with the tall
grasses and are driven out.

For a number of years he was a teacher

position he held until he engaged in
the mercantile business at Lost Creek,
with J. I. Alexander. He has been a
stanch Republican, and a faithful party

SENATORIAL VACANCIES.

Besides our own United States Sem
atorial mix-up, which is not unlikely
to leave West Virginia with but one
representative in the United States
Senate for some time, there are several
other States that are certain to have
vacancies in that body.
The California Legislature has just
closed its session without having elect
ed a Senator, as had also Delaware and
Utah.
Pennsylvania is now the only State
that is going through the motions Of
electing a Senator, with exceedingly
small chances of agreeing on any one,
Quay apparently having a "cinch" or
his following.
Florida has yet to elect a successor
to Senator Pascoe, whose term expired
with the Fifty-fifth Congress. This is
not the fault Of the Florida Legislature,
however, because that body does not
meet for a fortnight. While it is unan-
imously Democratic in both branches
it is by no means certain that it will
quickly choose a Senator, for there are
a number of Democratic aspirants who
are hot after the place, and the 100
members composing the body are likely
to be we'll divided between them.
Senatorial deadlocks seem to be the
fashion for 80.
