Fighting Again.

A Special from Manila of Feb, !
B, says: An attack has been made
on the Americans by the Fillipinos
which has probably taught them
a lesson that they will be long in
forgetting,and itmay result in a bet
termcnt of the anomalous situation
caused by the delay of the Ameri-
can Senate in ratifying the treaty
of peace. This delay has un.
doubtedly had the effect of en-
courageing Aguinaldo and his
supporters, whose agents in the
United States have kept them
we'll informed of the situation
at Washington. The natives have
had an excellent opportunity OF
learning the difference in the fight
ing qualities of Spanish and Ameri.
can troops, and their eDlighten-
ment has been great. The fight
ing was not the result of any az.
gression on the part of the Amer-
cans, but was precipltatedsb by the
action of twosnative soldiers, who
refused to obey the order of a
sentry who challenged their pass
age Of an outpost. These natives
advanced to the outpost of the
First Nebraska Regiment, which
is stationed to the northeast of
Manila. AS they approached the
sentry, the latter ordered them to
halt. They insolently refused to
do so, and advanced. The sentry
again called upon them to halt
and as they paid no attention to
his order, he leveled his rife and
fired upon them. The action Of
the natives leads to the supposl
ton that their refusal to obey thu
sentry was a part of preconceiv
ed plan. No sooner had the sentry

occupying block house No. z fire.

the Americans. The Nebrask
regiment was encamped in the VI
cinity of the outpost where tn
shooting occurred, and it was NJ
on this regiment the first attac
was made. They thought tbs
they would take the Americans b
surprise, but were grievously dl

One of these is a fOrty-ffve degree curve. claimed to be the shortest curve
 in the world, and whether this is true CT not it does not seem possible that a
 curve could be any sharper and the cars not tip over as the engine pulled them around it. The train only creeps around this curve. The engine Duffs. snorts and grunts. It's wheels slip on
 the rails and it barely moves. The cars nearly touch each other at the corners. The wheels groan and shriek as the fanges rub the rails. Tho
 whole train protests against srch treatment with all the voice it has and the engine seems about to pull the cars off the track in it's effort to get them al ound the curve.
 The train crew makes this trip twice 3 day, but no matter how long they have been on the road they look strained and anxious each day unti' this curve is safely passed. When th ( last car is over the trest1e everything relaxes. The engine rattles and Duffs in scrt of carefree name. and the freights bump along as though they did not mind any more

The panorama spread before the eve 9t this point is tremendous. Far in the distance rise the sun-covered peaks of the San Francisco mountains. over 122.C00 feet high. In the foreground is the valley of the Rio Verde. Miles and miles to the bottom of this valley it seems to be. The hills are barren, the valleys are barren. Not a tree or a blade of green anywhere It is an inferno burnt out and left to solitude.
 Not for long, however, for straight ahead of the train hangs Q blue haze. the smoke ard fumes from the roast ing copper. The train keeps high above 1t all. Far down the hillside arc the long rows of roasting heaps, vel low in their crests and each one addine its quota to the haze and sulphur in the air. This is the real living in- ferno- Figures Of men far down the hillside look like ants as they move about.

4 detachment of the Salvation Army
 reached here last evening and biy-
 OEacked in the rear of the Citizen of
 fee, where they pitched tent. They
 left cary this morning for Flornce. 1 Thence they will go to Phoenix. where
 their general headquarters for this

 yates who had left their work and
 come along especially to aid the cause.
 Adjutant and Mrs. Wood are the sec ! tional officers for Arizona. They ex- pressed themselves as sorry that they could not remain and hold meetings here. but urgent business made it i'm perative that they press on at once 10 Phoenix. They have been out six weeks in the southern part of the ter

 A year or. more ago Gus Williams and companions took a trip to the pre- historic Mcntezuma castle, in this
 county. They scaled the castle walls with ladders ar \ explored the various rooms Of the ancient pile. These rooms, for centuries, have been the home of bats and birds. Hence. the floors are covered to the depth of sev- eraI feet with guano and other accumu- latfons. Williams and party cleaned out one of these rooms to see what they would find on the floor of the room. Their Iabors were rewarded by the finding Of several curios, among them a large stone metat, weighing over 100 pounds. It was evident that the metat had been used for years, as 1t vas much worn and followed out from long use. Williams brought the metat to his Prescott place of business, where it has bean for months, attract ing little curiosity, as these primitive grain mOrtars are common in this country. A few days ago 9 prospector was looking at the metat and ex- claimed, ''Why, this rock carries free gold" Those present laughed at him, but he soon picked from it's surface a small nugget worth about 10 cents, and pointed out the yellow metal at vari- ous places in the surface of the big brown stone. The metal presents porous surface, in places, as if from the action of water. Tn some of these pores gold is plainly visible to the naked eye.-Prescott Courier.

THE MERIT SYSTEM AT ALBANY

Warden Sage of Sing Sing prison is a peculiarly fit man for his place. That everybody admits and Governor Roosevelt knows.
 And yet Governor Roosevelt is per- hitting eX-GOvernor Black in effect to remove him and to select his success scr upon purely partisan grounds. That is to say, Governor Roosevelt, to whom alone the power and responsi- bility belong, refuses to interfere, with the course of affairs as directed by Black in the last month Of his term, when he asked for Sage's resignation and selected his successor.
 It is impertinent to ask Governor Roosevelt why he does this-why he permits the ex-governor still to gov ern with the dead hand, and why he purposes to carry through proceed ing so obnoxious to every principle of civil service reform that he so car nestly professes? What is the use in making fuss about applying the merit system to few petty clerks if the spells system is to govern all the important offices ?-New York World.
