HASTE TO THE RESCUE.

lark! what cry arrests mine ear;
Hank! what accents of despair;
'Tis the drunkard's earnest prayer,
Friends of Jesus, hear.
Cody men, to you we cry;
Rests on you our anxious eye;
Help US, Christians, or we die
In dark despair"
Hasten, Christians! haste to save
Brothers from the drunkard's grave,
Difficulties boldly brave.
Hank! for help they call.
"Haste then to the rescued haste!
See! the souls by drink laid waste;
See! the work of God defaced
In Satans deadliest thrall
Go, then, in the Saviour's name,
Snatch those firebrands from the flame;
Deck His royal diadem
With their ransomed souls.
Work, OH work while yet tits day."
Look to HIM to show the way!
Naught must tempt you to delay
In rescuing captive souls.

eral, Washington-The following was
issued by an important officer of the
insurgent government at Malolos Feb
ruary 18th, 1899, for execution during
that evening and night in this city
Otis.
" 'First-It is so disposed that at s
o'clock at night individuals of the ter
ritorial militia at your order will be
found united in all of the streets of
San Pedro armed with their balos,
and revolvers or guns and ammunition
if convenient.
'Second--P Philippine families only
will be respected. They should not be
molested but all other individuals, of
whatever race they may be, will be ex-
terminated without any compassion
after the determination Of the army Of
occupation"
: 'Third-The defenders of the Phil
ippines in your command will attack
the guard at Bilibid and liberate the
prisoners and presidiarios and having
accomplished this they will be armed,
saying to them: Brothers, we must
avenge ourselves on the Americans and
exterminate them that We may take
our revenge for the infamy and treach-
cry which they have committed upon
us; have no compassion upon them;
attack with vigor. All the F'ilipinos
en- masse will second you-long live
the Filipinos' independence
" 'Fifth-The order which will be
followed in the attack will be as fol-
lows: The sharpshooters of Tondo
and Santa Ana will begin the attack
from the west and these shots will be
the signal for the militia Of Troso Bin
ondo, Quiato and Sampaloe to go out
into the street and do their duty; nose
Of Pake, Ermita and Malate, Santa
Cruz and San Miguel will not start out
until II o'clock unless they see that
their comrades need assistance.
'Sixth-rhe militia of Tondo will
start out at o'clock in the morning,
If all do their duty our revenge will be
complete. Brothers, Europe contem-
plates us. We know how to die as
men, shedding our blood in defense of
the liberty Of our country. Death to
tyrants. War without quarter to the
false Americans who have deceived us!
Either independence or death!'"

the transport going to Cuba. He
heard no complaints after landing and
he was wounded soon after.
Capt. Hughes of the 18th infantry
found the canned roast beef unpalat-
able, did not satisfy hunger and he
could not eat it. Such was the ex-
perience generally of the men. 1t was
stringy and without nutritive value
Capt. Ennis of the 4th artillery said
that personally he had taken the
canned roast beef as a stew and was
often nauseated. A great many men
would eat the canned roast beef and
turn about quickly and vomit' and
finally refused to eat it at all. The re
frigerator beef was satisfactory.
Maj. Gen. Sumner of the volunteers,
who commanded a brigade Of cavalry
throughout the campaign, testified that
complaints about the roast beef were
heard in the lines. No action was TAX
en- because sit was all we had and it
would not do any good" The refrig-
Grated beef was good, except that much
Of it spoiled before reaching the camp,
or hours from the depot. He said
he attributed none of the sickness to
the food.
Maj. Lee of the 9th infantry said the
refrigerated beef frequently spoiled
before it could be gotten to the camp 2
miles from the city.
Capt. Jackson of the 9TH infantry
found the canned roast beef generally
acceptable. He found it rather taste
less, but nourishing. The refrigerated
beef was half spoiled when delivered
4 miles from the depot. He never had
an idea of any chemical treatment.
