But VIII Have No Easy Task In SUBJ
DUNG the Fflipinos.
Lo.don. March 27.-The Philippine
campaign had OF late rather lost interest
for British readers, bi. today there Is
an entire change. AA the dispatches
are printed prominently and at length.
Most of the papers contain editorials
expressing admiration OF the bravery
OF the American troops and sympathy
with them in the difficulties they have
encountered. The general opinion is
that the American victories are not con-
elusive. since the Filiplnos have not yet
learned the lesson Of the hopelessness of
resisting the United States.
The Standard says: The Americans
are fighting the rebels with a dash and
vigor that are I'm marked contrast TO the
falterlng blows aimed at them by the
Spanish generals. Englishmen will read
with 1ympathy OF the successive charges
otASe American infantry across the open
In INC face Of heavy lre. Work such
as this has TO be done times without
number, in the course Of our own empire
making.
The Daily telegraph says: All the
accounts show that the Americans will
have TO bear their fun share OF the
white mans burden" The experience
the United states is gathering tcday is
that Of every power which has sought TO
found an empire beyond It's own shores.
The Daily News says; The ultimate
result can hardly be doubted. but strate-
sicaliy Manila Is still threatened.

in Maine owed the stuffed loon in his col

hunters of the bird frozen in the ice of a
mountain pond. The loon had evidently
been belated in his autumn trip TO the
South and either had paused to rest on the
ice covering the pond or the ice had formed
about him, holding him captive as he float

his wings or spring aloft from solid sur

The SorrowfuI Tree.


i rom inc lhidiNtpild AtbHs
There Is a tree In Persia to which the
name '"rhe Sorrowful Tree is given. Per-
haps because It blooms only in the even
ing.
When the first star appears in the heav-
ems, the first bud OF the Sorrowful Tree
opens, and as the shades OF night advance
and the stars thiekly stud the sky the
buds continue gradually opening until the
whole tree looks like one immense white
flower. On The approach Of dawn. when the
briiliancy of the stars gradually fades In
the light Of day, the Sorrowlul Tree closes
its flowers and ere the sun is fully risen
not a single blossom is visible. A sheet of
flower dust. as white as snow, covers the
ground around the foot of the tree, which
seems blighted and withered during the
day. while however, 1t is actively pre-
paring for the next nocturnal festivaLTh
fragrance of the blossom is like that OF
the evening primrose.
If the tree is cut down close TO the roots
a new plant shoots up and attains maturity
i'm an Incredibly short time.
In the vicinity of this singular tree there
usually grows another, which is almost
an exact counterpart Of the Sorrowful Tree
but less beautiful, and, strange to say, it
blooms only in the daytime.
