Boston, March 14.-An appeal to the

Of prominent men. The preamble de-
scribes the attitude of this government
and of President Mckinley toward the
Filipinos before and since the war, and
asserts that there is 40 reason for a
change Of opinion on the part of the anti
imperiallsts, and, on the contrary, every
reason for a continuance Of the protest
against the spirit of militarism and force,
and they therefore urge cooperation to
the following ends:
First, that our government shall take
immediate steps toward a suspension of
hostilities in the Philippines and a con-
ference with the Philippine leaders with
a view to preventing further bloodshed
upon the basis of a recognition Of their
freedom and independence, as soon as
proper guarantees can be had of order
and. protection to property.
Second, that the government Of the
United States shall tender an official as
surance to the inhabitants of the Philip
pine islands that they will encourage and
assist in the organization of such a gov
ornment in the islands as the people
thereof shall prefer, and that upon it's
organization in a stable manner, the
ITnitPh StntnS in nnnr6non with itc
traditional and preceptive policy in such
cases, will recognize the independence of
he Philippines and its equality among
nations, and gradually withdraw all
naval and military forces.

MELBA'S SUCCESS
Is NOW ASSURED

San Francisco, March 1.-THE success
of the Media opera season is already as
sured, for the performance on the first
night met with the unqualified approval
of the vast audience. Speaking of Mar
guerite," as played by Media, the Chroni-
Gle says: Through the garden act her
pure, clear voice was used with an art
entirely free from any trick or manner
ism. There is a simplicity and directness
about al, her singing which is especially
notable, since no singer, except Patti, has
used the voice with such ease and grace.
Gracefully she acts, gracefully she sings
and her action goes most adnlira oily in
keeping with the music. But in the pris-
on scene Melba reached her greatest
height. Hardly could n expect such Vi
brant folc &c as Melba gives out in that.
The voice goes with the emotion and new
er losing its beauty, speaks a meaning
which more than any special number in
the opera shows how brilliant, how spir-
itual, how powerful was the imagination

ACCUSED OF A
REVOLVING CRIME

San Francisco, March 14.-Mrs. Minnie
Adams has been arrested at her fathers
home, III Parker avenue, on suspicion of
having murdered her t~wo-year-old lille
ultimate child, John Richard Gray, by
administering a dose of carbolic acid. A
quarrel with the father of the child,
which resulted in the separation of the
couple, added to the fact that there We're
too many mouths to be fed, is believed to
be the motive for the revolving crime.
The father of the child, Wilson Gray, is
the accuser of the woman and had he not
reported the matter to the police, it is
probable the death would have passed as
an accident. Until two months ago Gray
had been living with Mrs. Adams and
the child was their son. He received a
note saying his boy was dead and with
an officer went to the Adams house
where he found the body. Mrs. Adams
said the child had drank from a bottle
of carbolic acid, which had contained
only about two t~easpoonsful. It was dis
covered, however, hat a large quantity
of the deadly acid had been spilled on the
floor of an clubhouse and this fact coupled
with other suspicious eli cumstances and
threats to kill the boy, alleged to have
been made by Mrs. Adams, led to her ar
rest.

death Of James Powers, a window wash

thirteenth of the month. Powers was
employed or July IS, 1898, to take the
place of John Miller, window washer, who
met his death on that day from falling
from the same window from which Pow
ers fell today. The window is the thir-

was 26 years old, twice IL. Miller, the
first man to meet his death from the un-

Be Gter to tell the Truth.

S~AA ~AA0 =
Albert Lea is reaping the bad effects
OF an attempt to suppress information
OF the presence of smallpox in that
city. The fact that the disease was
OF a mild form was made the basis of
a claim that it was chickenpox, and
in consequence less care and caution
was exercised, and the result is that it
was carriedrto other communities, be-
ing pretty well scattered in neighbor-
ing towns. Smallpox is loathsome
disease but thanks to medical science
is treated with less fatality than in
earlier years. Too much vigilence in
suppressing it cannot be exercised,
quite often the resorts of health off,
GERS are very arbitrary, but the safety
of the community is involved, and for
that reason much that seems unjust
should for the time being be patient
ly submitted to. The state law gives
health officers great latitude and arbi-
trary power, and an enlightened ju-
dietary generally sustains it's exercise,
for the welfare of the community is at
stake. Our own experience is that it
is always best to tell the truthabout
contagious ailments, avoiding the SEN
sational, and the public is better able
to avoid the dungers that threaten.-
