Some Of the most beautiful things Ia
has are presents from Aguinaldo. Tia
dictator has the greatest admiration
and respect for Dewey, and has tn
singular habit Of making an elabora,a
ter "calls him down" That accouuh
largely for the number OF AguinaldC,
presents that adorn the cabin. In an
the dealings Admiral Dewey has bad
with Aguinaldo he has treated him
with the greatest courtesy when eOur.
tesy was called for, and the greatest
severity when firInness was the thing.
but In spite OF the rebuffs Aguinaldo's
notes accompanying the presents inyH
riably refer to the admiral as nv
honorable and illustrious friend"
On the occasion OF Aguinaldo's first
visit to the Olympia he was accorded
the greatest ceremony that could Be
bestowed on q man Of high rank. The
admiral In person met him at The
gangway, the marines were all drawn
up at attention and everything EXCEPT
the firing Of a salute was tendered
1t Is to be assumed that he was sun /
GENTLY dazed and fiattered. for he has
never ceased to be very friendly and
anxious to act In compliance with The
admiraPs wishes.
Not long ago General Andersen
wanted to take pleasure trip up the
River Pasig, but was stopped at ths
insurgent lines and compelled to tun
back. A day or two afterward the i'd
miral sat on the quarter deck and Be
saw an insurgent launch steamlng
gayiy along near his ship, with the In
surgent flag flying. Then an idea Of T
reciprocity occurred to him and be DE- /
cided to seize all the insurgsn T
launches. This was at once DONE and /
eight beautiful craft were tied up D I
Cavite. When Aguinaldo heard Of ths +
calamity he sent his private secretary /
Escamillo, to see the admiral and d T
find out what had been done to offend E
him. The admiral was very nice, and
he gave Escamillo a heart-to-hsGn F
talk. He spoke Of the insurgents R
fusing to allow American army Of
GERS to go through their lines and b
thought that he would not allow tA
insurgent launches to 60 through hh
lines. So for that reason he had taks
them-not confiscated them, just de
tanned" them The next day Aguinad
gave orders permitting American Oh
GERS to go through the inSurgent lina
and up the river, and doubtless In
day or two he VIII send a beautts
present to his Industrious friend
