REPRESENTATIVES WANT MILEAGE.

Movement Foot TO Bring suit-Stato
Treasurer Ball Had Refused to Pay 1t.
Members of the House Of Representa-
tives of the last General Assembly are
preparing to bring action to recover
mileage for the last session which was
refused them by State Treasurer L. III.
Ball. Although the State Constitution
makes no provision for the payment of
mileage, the House Of Representatives
voted mileage to its members. and in
the proceedings it is said that the
statement is made that the money was
drawn. At any rate, State Treasurer
Ball, acting under the advice Of coun-
sci, declined to pay mileage. The State
Senate did not pass mileage account.
The Constitution provides simply fof
an allowance of s5 per day to members
and Sc a da, to presiding officers and
makes no reference 10 mileage. Nearly
all the members rode to and from Dover
on passes.
! The movement TO sue for the money
claimed, which aggregates about 81, 300,
took shape on the legislative reunion
trip when paper was passed around.
Speaker Clark was the first to sign it.
The list is now in the hands of down
the-State members. AiA8s

torneys for the Legislature, is to repre-
sent the claimants, hia 8N.ft

Manila, Philippine Islands, Nov. 6.
-Magalang, the town taken yesterday
by two columns of Gen. MacArthur,s
division, under Col. Smith and MAJOR
O'Brien, is strong town, situated
midway between Angeles and Arayat.
The movement is part of plan for the
Americans to possess all the country to
the southeast of Tarlac, as the troops
close in on the oapital cutting the
line of the enemy's retreat in that
direction. TIE insurgent force is
estimated at 1000.
Col. Smith first encountered small
force entrenched quaIte of mile
beyond Angeles, which soon retreated,
leaving two of their number dead.
The enemy made short stand at the
outskirts of Barrios and San Francisco,
briskly shooting at the advancing
Americans. Capt. Brush derloyed
with the advance guard Of the hat
talon, and charged the Filipinos, who
took TO flight. Seven Americans were
wounded. Tho Americans almost sur
rounded the insurgents, who resisted
stubbornly, but Lieut.. Hamilton's
artillery cut them UP. Lieut.. Slavin's
troops captured company OF the
enemy, with their arms, during the
advance.

HARvARD BLANKs PENN.
Crimson Players scored. 16 Points ON
franklin Field-A BAD Break.

franklin FieId-A BAD Break.
A large party of Whining tonians
attended the football game between
Harvard and University Of Pennsyl-
vania on Franklin Field, Philadelphia
Saturday afternoon. They saw fine
exhibition of the great college game.
in which Harvard played all around
Penn and won by q score of ld to O.
The way the Crimson players kept
their eyes on the ball and worked Ike
mac hine in their movements was a
delightful sight indeed. 1t luoKs as IL
Harvard will carry off the champion
ship. Her next big game will be with
Yale on November 18th. G
The contest on Franklin Field was
married by a closing incident After
the referee had blown his whistle Over
field grabbed the ball and started on
run down the field towards Pennsyl-
vania's dressing rooms, with Hallowell
and Campbell, of the Harvard team,
in hot pursuit. Both sides wanted the
ball aud a wrestling match ensued to
obtain possession of it. The people in
the stands had not heard the referees
whistle and became excited, imagining
that the gamo had broken up or was
breaking up in row. Instantly hun
dreds OF people rushed on the field
giving the scone all the appearance OF
iiot, with the spectators jostling each
other around to get their noses IN
front, and policemen running in the
same direction from all parts of tho
grounds.
Overiield was stopped by Coach
Woodruff and some other Pennsylvania
mon, and requested to give up the
ball, which command ho obeyed.
This incident made supporters of the
Red and Blue heaitsick for they felt
that it would be USED by Yale and
Princeton to urge Harvard to break off
relations with Penn. But the Harvard
athletic committee is not likely to take
such step. Prof. Hollis Of Harvard
said Sunday: 1T was an individual
act, committed in thoughtlessness, and
reflects no discredit upon Pennsylvania.

was able TO do because he was generally

Der. He declares that of the 100000 exiles
supposed to be upon the Island of Saghalien
over one-third have disappeared, and that
the greater proportion of these have been
done to death by the inhuman cruelties to
which they have been subjected.
1t was about this time that Ivanhoe be-
gan to send back to Russia to the journals
for which he was working descriptions of
what he had witnessed, and pictures of
some of the scenes he had taken. These
were published, along with the pictures
but the identity of the author was kept a
secret Then 1t was that the government
officials began to put in operation that per-
feet and mercfless machinery of surveil
lance, with the hope of finding who II was
that was disclosing the secrets of state.
Very naturally their search took them to
the prison at AleXandrovskii, for they
knew that the traitor, whoever he might
be, was within the walls of the prison.
Kononovitch determined to have Ivanhoe's
mail watched, and to intercept his CORES
Spondence. This he did, and one of the let
ters that fell into his possession contained
some Instructions from one of the nihilist
societies to which 1vanhoe belonged. This
was all that was needed The governor
determined upon the arrest of the jailer.
The governor had employed in his house
hold domestic. She was an old woman,
who had served out her term. She had yet
been convict when Ivanhoe came to the
ptlSoi anu Oh one occasion ne udu done
her kindness The woman had never for
gotten this, and she risked her life to show
her gratitude to her benefactor When
Kononoyitch was discussing the arrest with
the officials of the secret service, and was
showing to them the letter that he had in
tercepted, the woman overheard their colI-
versation and went secretly TO Ivanhoe and
told him what she had overheard.
There was no time to lose. 1t was neces-
sary to act and act quickly IL he hoped TO
get away from the island 1t was in Dc

If he could reach this point before the po-
lice there was a chance for him u cross
the gulf. reach Siberia. and work his way
down to Corea, and there take a steamer to
Yokohama, from which point he hoped TO
sail for America.
He quickly changed his jailers uniform
for other clothes, and, taking with him his
photographs and notes, he silently slipped
out of the prison. He left ACKNOWLEDGMENT
about 10 o'clock at night and arrived at
Langra the next night. To do this he had
to travel necessarily, only stopping to
change teams and urging the driver to con-
tinue his breakneck pace.

Secured a High Position So as to Ex-
pose His Governments Cruelty.
From the Philadelphia Times.
A Russian nihtiist arrived in Philadelphia
recently whose adventures and escape form
a thrilling narrative. The man, whose
name is Nicholas Ivanhoe, lived at stavro-
pol until seventeen years of age, at which
time his father, WHO. was lawyer, under
took the defense of a man whom the gov
eminent officials supposed to be a nihilist,
but against whom they .Had no direct proof.
The man was being tried for murder In
endeavoring to acquit his client he dis
PLAYED more than professional warmth and
interest, and unfortunately, spent his own
money freely in his attempt to save the
man, who was. however. convicted to pay
the extreme penalty of the law.
The convicted man became incenSed at
the LAWYER because he had not cleared him.
and when on the scaffold took a dying re-
yenge of ingratitude and deception by de-
claring that his lawyer had done all in his
mower to clear him because he was, like
himself, nihilist.
rot MANY days before the lawyer was ar
rested and thrown into prison. A hasty
trial followed, and the unfortunate man
was convicted and sentenced to be ban
ished for life to the far-away Island OF
Saghalien.
Nicholas went to St. Petersburg to try
to make his living. There he found men
who, like himself, had grievances against

WEALTH IN GRAVEYARDs.
Less Jewelry Than Commonly Sup-
posed is Buried With the Dead

posed is Buried With the Dead.
From the New York Sun.
As rule not much tewelry Of value is
buried with the dead. In the case of wo-
men the jewelry buried with them Is like
ly TO De confined to plain gold ring
winch in the case of wife would be her
wedding ring. 1t might easily happen that
TINS would be the only ring worn at the
time OF death, other rings having been
taken from the fingers because the wearing
OF them might have been source of dis
comfort to the weaTer On the other hand
1t might happen that the rings could NOT
be easily removed. In such a case the
rings would be left on the fingers and
buried with the body
The wedding ring is not always buried
Sometimes the husband desires to keen It.
In some instances, If there are children In
the family, it is given to the oldest grown
up daughter. Other rings buried with the
dead would be most commonly some plain
bands valued as gift or a keepsake or
Tor some dear association. Sometimes a
diamond ring might be buried for a similar
reason, perhaps with the diamond turned
inward, showing only a plain band upon
the nnger as the hand lay across the body
in the casket
But while such is the prevailing practjce
with constantly increasing observance II ia
not invariably followed. There have been
cases In which the bodies of women have
been buried with earrings and all the rings
commonly worn in life, including. perhaos
valuable diamonds, relatives permitting
nothing to be taken away. Such cases are
unusual ana are becoming rarer
substantially the same practice prevails
with regard to the burying Of jeweiry with
the bodies of men. Watches and chains of
value have been buried with the dead. hut
not often. Costly jewelry has been thus
buried, but this is seldom done; commonly
sueh Jewelry as may be buried is simple
and comparatively inexpensive There
might be left upon the finger some ring
mat mad been specially dear to the dead
and that he had wished to keen always
Besides the rings there might be buried
various other articles of more or less value
Tor which special attachment had been
formed or that the dead had reouested
should be brried with them.
