WORKED THE OLD FAN
b. Drawing Upon Him for Funeral
Expenses.

There is an old mother in New
York who is mourning a son who sleeps
in an unmarked and unknown grave
in Phoenix. The reason the grave is
unmarked is that it hasn't been dug
yet.
About a year ago a young fellow by
the name of NJ. J. Whalen, a son of
Patrick Whalen, a wealthy New York
contractor, came here for his health,
which had been wasted in the widest
panied by young man whose name is
now forgotten here, but he was rela-
tive of Whalen's. They stopped at the
Ford, dressed like Solomon. lived like
princes and drank life fishes, that is,
when they had money to burn. But
the conf1agratiOn was fierce and their
money did not last long. Then there
was short season of walking around
Cd uppers-' The uppers' seasons kept
growing longer and the CONGREGATIONS
less frequent as the months went by.
Old man Whalen was getting hard
hearted and some of the remittances he
sent in response to letters and tele-
grams miscarried, if they were ever
sent. Now and then a more than usu-
ally importunate appeal made Mrs
was a mothers boy. and then there
would be a remittance which would
hardly last over night and served no
other useful purpose than to extend
the credit of the youths.
At length old man Whalen was ut
terly Disguised and obdurate and the
most piteous letter never touched him.
Then young Whalen's companion wrote
him that his son, whose health had
been growing more and more delicate,
had to be taken to the hospital and it
was feared that he would not see the
glorious spring time again. He was i'll
urgent need of funds The old man
sent a draft for $75 and it was con-
verified into cash by Landlord S. P.
Clark The invalid and his friend were
broke again the next day.
A week later the friend telegraphed
the old man that his beloved son was
no more and suggested a remittance
by wire of enough money to pay for
embalming the body forits transporta-
ton to New York for interment in the
family lot. The old man telegraphed
back to bury the body in Phoenix and
send him the bill A blank bill was
procured in some way from the Phoe-
nix Undertaking company without the
knowledge of Mr.. Bradley. An ac-
count was made out showing that
there had been expended for embalm-
ing, flowers. casket, carriages and in
terment s275. A draft for this amount
was received by young Whalen's sor-
rowing companion and was converted
into cash. The dead young man and
his friend had a high time in Phoenix
that day and that night they left for

New York, Aug. ia dispatch from

Communication with the distressed dis.

Arecibo was devastated by the hurri-
cane, and later was flooded by the Are
cibo and Manate rivers. Two hundred
bodies have already been recovered and
hundreds more are missing. 1t is thought
those were swept into the sea. The town
was inundated to depth Of six feet.
After the water subsidized the dead were
found lying everywhere. The bodies were
buried on the streets where they were
found. The town is now rapidly filling up
with starving people from the country.
Only four soldiers were drowned, but all
are without shelter. Captain McComb and
his men did valiant service in saving life.
Forty persons were rescued from floating
wreckage. A thousand head of cattle were
lost there.
At other Towns.
At Naranzito 20 persons are known to
have been killed. A thousand are home

stroyed. AT Cicales 20 persons were

Seven residents were killed. At Cayey

NEW GALL FOR VOLUNTEERS
FIVE MORE NEW REGIMENTS.
To be Organized at Once-President So
Orders-He Asks For Oficers-Rscom-
mendations of the GOvernors-Secre
Root Gets in . Rush.

New York, Aug l6.-A special from
Washington says:
Orders are expected within few days
directing the organization Of five new vol
unteer regiments for the Philippines.
While final decision on the matter OF
enlisting still more troops has not yet
been made, the fact that Secretary Root
is already considering the question OF Of
ficers for the regiments, indicates the
strong probability that they will be or
ganized. The secretary is extremely anx-
ious to get good o. GERS and as he can
not examine each individuals record, he
has decided to place the responsibility on
the governors Of the states.
Political influence and personal or social
pull will cut no figure in the distribution
Of the commissions in these new regiments.
Secretary Root made that point unmistak-
ably clear to Senator Clay of Georgia,
when the latter called at the war depart
ment to urge the appointment of several
young Georgians, who are ambitious to
enter the army as commissioned officers.
1--WE have heretofore had SO much
trouble over civilian appointments" said
Secretary Root, "that we propose to make
the new appointments without the aid OF
political or personal influence"
To End the InsurrectiOn.
Secretary Root is determined that the
fall campaign shall end the instruction
and that General Otis may have no ex-
cuse for failure to bring it to close. He
purposes giving him as large an army as
conditions may show to be necessary.
The proposed new regiments may be
sent Immediately after the ten volunteer
regiments already enlisted should the me-
cessity for them be demonstrated. Should
it be apparent, when these commands have
been recruited, that Otis force is still
insu. .cient to control the situation, re-
cruiting will continue until all the volun.
teers authorized by congress have been
enlisted. ~
The recruiting for the ten new regiments
continues although they have their COM
plement Of men and the overflow may
serve as nucleus for the new regiments.
1t is the expectation OF the department
that enough men for IS volunteer regi-
ments will be obtained by the middle Of
September.
