Dissertation and Vandalism.

DR.. George w. Shugart has a son
William Shugart, in one of the Montana
regiments now in the Philippines, and
he sent him fine cane made from ma
hogany taken from one of the pipe or,
gans in one of the churches in that far
off land. 1t was brought to the United
States by one of the returning members
of the regiment. who sent it to him.
Nevada Watchman.
Commenting on the above the Des
Moines Gazette says:
In the Philippines it seems our SOL
diers have little reverence for the sacred
ediices. Many of the volunteers writing
home have no hesitation in describing
the vandalism which seems to find in
the cathedrals of the islands the richest
booty. Images and other sacred adorn-
ynents have been taken as memeutoes
without any apparent compunctions OF
conscience.
The war in the Philippines seems to
have debauched a good many of the
honest boys of the country and devel-
oped in them spirit OF vandalism which
is not pleasing spectacle to those who
have some reverence for houses OF wor-
ship. The poor Filipinos worship the
same God as we do, and the beautiful
churches they have erected after years
of toll and sacrifice should have been
spared such desecration.
But we are emulating England's I'M
perialistic policy, and war of conquest
of an alien people always results in such
outrages. We haven't quite reached the
British standard yet, as recently mani
tested in the Soudan, where the tomb Of
the Madhi was invaded, the body OF the
Mahdi taken out, the head cut off and
the trunk thrown into the Nile, but we
are learning fast and making progress.
The work of benevolent assimilation
goes brave1y on, the cemeteries are
blooming in the Philippines, every
where in the islands our Christian civili-
zation is being planted, thanks to the
administration OF our blood-washed
Methodist President" as the temper
ance orator.. John G. Woolley, termed

between, and three behin> so that they
could at any time step into the spaces.
Early on the same morning Monro
marched from Armagh towards Ben
burb, but finding the ford, now crossed
by Battleford Bridge, strongly guarded,
he turned southwest, and crossing at
Kinard (now Caledon) without any op-
position, he advanced along the river
towards the Irish army Having ar
rived on the ground, Monro arranged
his army in nine divisions, FIVE in front
and four behind The two armies now
stood face to face, but O'Neill, knowing
that his opponents were already wearied
after their long mornings march, skill
fully wasted the day in light skirmishes
till late in the evening, when the sun
had come around and shone full in the
faces of the English. While the skir-
mishing was still going on, and growing
every moment more hot, large body
OF men were seen in the distance ap-
preaching from the north, whom Mon
ro took to be his brothers reinforce
ments, but they were in reality Mac
Mahon and Mac Neny's regiments, re-
turning, after having scattered George
Monro's party. When at last they were
seen to join the Irish army, Monro be-
came alarmed and prepared to retreat.
But O'Neill seized the moment for
general assault He first moved forward
the three rear divisions, so as to form
one continuous line. When all was
ready, he was seen to pause for mo-
ment, and raise his hat, while his lips
moved. Then, issuing his orders, the
whole army started forward, and
charged with sword and pike. Twice did
Monro attempt to stop the advance by
hurting against the ranks squadrons Of
cavalry, which in both cases were driven
back among his footmen. He ordered
forward his four rear detachments to
support the front divisions, but there
was not sufficient room for this move
ment, so that the ranks became closely
packed, and this, with the commingling
and furious prancing of the retreating
cavalry, caused great disorder.
In the midst of all this confusion,
while the sun g1ared full in the faces of
the English, down on them came
O'Neill's well-arranged, solid battalions
At once they gave way before this terri
bic onset, and, turning round, rushed
back in utter rout. But right in their
way flowed the river deep and rapid,
and, besides those slain in fight, vast
numbers were drowned in attempting
to cross, SO that the survivors were able
to pass over the bodies lying in the wa
ter Monro himself escaped and fled in
panic bareheaded, leaving OH the field
his cloak, helmet and wig. Upwards
of 1000 OF his army fell, while the Irish
lost only seventy
With the exception OF the splendid
victory achieved at Yellow Ford, in
1898, by the famous Hugh ONeill, Earl
of Tyrone, the battle of Benburb was
the most brilliant and decisive triumph
ever gained over the English invaders by
the native Irish, and but for the unfor-
tunate dissensions which shortly after
wards broke out in the ranks of the Con-
federates and the sudden death in 164o
of Owen Roe, the only Irish commander
who could have resisted successfully
Cromwell and his Puritan plunderers
and cutthroats, Benburb might have
proved Waterloo for English dolnina-
ton in Ireland.
