CAME AS 4 SHOCK.

News of the Serious Fighting Mt Manila
Unexpected by Washington officials.
WASHINGTON. Feb. THE news from
Manila came like a shock to the oflc'als
here, for the administration, though an
uneasy disposition prevailed in the Pnli'
ippines, had chung steadily to the hope
that by tact and patience actual hght'
ing might be averted. and even those
public men who felt that hcstllltles
would follow should the treaty be ratl'
fed and the United States attempt to
occupy the islands believed that Aguln'
aldo would not force the fighting when
the treaty of peace was III its most crltl-
cal stage. Some senatorial opponents
Of ratification of the treaty adhere IL
their position. but the general OPINION
in Washington Is that the news from
Manila insures the ratification OF the
treaty.
The news of the beginning of another
war came from Admiral Dewey. No
word had been received by the other de-
partlnents up to nightfall. 1t seems to
be Dewey's fortune always to be able TO
report favorable news. and like all OF
his messages that have gone before TINS
cablegram told of the success OF the
American forces in the action. 1t was
with deep regret. however. that the ad-
ministration learned that the insurgents
had forced the issue. 1t had hoped all
all along that they could be brought to
see the advantages of placing their
trust in the American people and rely
ing upon the president to deal justly
with them.
Were Prepared for Trouble.
While this was true the officials here
and the officers in Manila had not been
blind to the threat contained in the sit
uation there and Yer preparation has
been made for Just what occurred. 1t
is now acknowledged that the fear of an
outbreak in Luzon was the explanation
for the much commented on failure OF
General Miller to force a landing at
lloilo on the island of Panay. 1t is be-
lieved that it was unknown to the in
surgentS. but some OF the American
warships were quietly moved into po-
sitions where they perfectly commanded
the insurgent intrenchments and de-
fences and could she'll them with effect
in case Of an outbreak. The outposts
had been greatly strengthened. it is
said. by d iudlcious extension of the
lines in some directions and also by
taking summary measure, to prevent
the insurgents taking up positions and
organizing their forces.
One Flaw in Dewey's Dispatch.
Officials noted one little flaw in Dew
ey's dispatch in which he spoke Of the
American forces as generally success
full" conveying just the least intima-
ton that at some points the result was
not as satisfactory as at others. 1t is in
ferred here that this might mean the
development Of weakness at some of the
more exposed points on the American
line. which might be easily explained
by the fact that the attack was made a,
night, perhaps in places where the in
surgents could creep close mp in the
shelter of the tropical jungle that grows
nearly into the town of Manila. Every
confidence is felt. however, that Gen.
eral Otis is master of the situation.

woman by birth, but has lived In the
United States for a number OF years.
She has kept up her connection with
the old country, however, and, in fact,
the main action of the story In Lip

cent visit to England. MIS-. Russells

HIS FAREWELL.
Rev. j. Hugo Klaren Takes
Leave Of His Congregation.

Rev. j. Hugo Klaren, who leaves
Worcester to accept the position of
pastor of Emanuel Church of Shell
burne Falls, preached his farewell SER
mon yesterday forenoon at 1880 o'clock,
at st, Thomas Church at Cherry VAL
ley. He also delivered q farewell SER
mon at All Saints chapel to his St.
Sigfrid's congregation at AS o'clock
yesterday afternoon.
Rev. Mr. Klaren has been connect
ed with st. Sigfi1d's since March 1st,
1894, very nearly five years ago.
He leaves q large field of work in
the Episcopal Church here, but will
continue In the same line in his new
field of labor,
His text for his farewell sermon
Sunday morning was: Your life is hid
with Christ in Cod; Col, 49, Let
your manner of life be worthy Of the
gospel of Christ, that whether l come
and see you or be absent, l may hear
of your state, that ye stand fast in one
spirit, with one soul striving for the
faith of the gospel" Phil, 1:27.
He said in part: This higher life
which the gospel refers to so often in
the epistles is something sc deep that
man who has entered into that life
loses himself in a blessed concealment
with Christ in God. He is content to
drop out Of sight Of men. to be COM
pletely submerged in Christ st. John
was living Illustration of it. as we
learn from his own words, when he
said: Truly our fellowship is with the
Father and with his son Jesus Christ
This is a world of parting. From the
house gate, the railway car and on
the public street, every day we hear
it, Good byel Goodbye! The minister
leaves his flock where many kindly
friendships have been formed and fell
lowships enjoyed.
"In closing, let me say that I have
not been unimpressed and uninterested
in your Joys and sorrows, your trials
and successes. May the Lord bless you
and lift his countenance upon you and
give you peace, now and forever
more"
The text Of his afternoon sermon
was: peace l leave with you, my
peace 1 give unto you, not as the
world giveth, give 1 unto you; let not
your heart be troubled neither let 1t
be downcast."
Rev Mr.. Klaren viii not enter at
once upon his new duties, but win take
vacation Of two weeks in which to
recuperate.

to this point, he saidi "This nation can
not afford to gloss over viciousness of
any nature. Defiance of her laws must
meet with speedy retribution. The seat
ing Of confessed polygaInist from
Utah in our national congress would
violate every sense of honor; would in
suit manhood and put premium on
lust and lawlessness."
DR.. Conrad also referred to the Philip
pine question in the following Ian
guage: 1.-THE future policy of our gov
eminent respecting the long abused
and yet undisciplined child of the far
east whom Providence has compelled
us temporarily to take, will, without
doubt, be dictated by sentiments OF
right and justice. Let US have faith In
the wisdom, sincerity and ability Of this
government successfully to cope with
difficulties that confront us and to
maintain the honor of the flag which
synnbolizes every national virtue and
inspires every national hope"
After the sermon and before the clos
ing prayer, Mrs. Dorothy McTaggart
Miller sang most beautifully IAN hail

arrangements for the sacred concert OF
the wachusett Boat Club in Park the

ternoon in the parlors of the Sherwood
House. Various subcommittee re-
ported. P. H. Hurley reported that
Thomas Clifford of Boston will surely
appear and possibly the entire Clifford
quartet, which created such favorable
impression at the Elks' memorial ser
vice. If previous engagements make it
impossible for the quartet to appear,
Mr.. Clifford will bring Daniel Murphy,
a leading tenor singer Of Boston, and
also q soprano singer from the same
city. DR.. A. J. Harpin and John FL.
Reardon Of this city will sing. Definite
information regarding the quartet VIII
reach the committee Tuesday.
Mr.. Shea of the Park theatre, who
has had the arrangement OF the greater
part of the program in his charge, viii

duty. 1t needs to be reinforced and en-
oircled with something new 1t needs
chance to escape from its ordinary
bounds into wider horizon.
Now, In the ideal respect at least,
am sure we all agree the best use of
Sunday Is not to respect the ordinary
round of other days. Some of its
hours should be allowed to- show us
what work Is for and what life itself
means. But, it may be said, if on
week days our work is good and right,
is not this distinction for Sunday un-
natural and, therefore, undesirable?
But life is SO large and our work in 1t
at best so small, the world so beautiful.
what men have done and thought and
sung so wonderful, it is a pity to be
shut down In our little, not over-bright
corner. When the chance comes, is II
not good to get in the wider region and
company?
Here is the boy in school who stud
les hard all the week. There is no harm
In getting his lessons on Sunday. There
are not many things more worth while.
If you must give an hour or two to
school books you are doing well. But
part Of Sunday ought to bring some
thing else than a repetition of the dull
ness and WEAKNESS or even the excel
lence of work. There should be some
looking up to the heights. In fam
fly, for instance, VINO could be more
delightful or rational than for all Its
members, old and young, to have some
hour for the enjoyment all together of
some great poem, or picture, or build
ing, or character, or some part of ma
ture herself? 1t is because Sunday fur
nishes the opportunity for these things
that it lays upon US something of an
obligation.
This is not all that is to be said.
There are also opportunities for pleas
ure and innocent pastimes that are not
to be disregarded. l shall speak of
them another time. J am referring now
to the opportunity for our higher Gull
ture. 1t Is a day Of freedom, 1t should
be a day of inspiration. 1T should be
as Emerson called it, Jubilee of the
soul" 1t should have an hour Of clearer
thought and farther vision, when
new outlook is obtained upon the sum
of our earthly activities

The result of the second Sunday Of

with no financial loss in consequence
of their firm attitude. The dealers az
a whole are Indifferent as 70 whether
or not the New York publishers ac-

In doing so the directors call attention to
the fact that the road is without connec-
tons either east or west which II con-
trolls, and that increasing competition
and the general tendency toward lower

to be expended for track elevation in
Chicago and in putting the road and IT'S
equipment in condition to compete eco
nomlcally with existing and prospective
competition. 1t may be added that those
who have made the offer for the property
are In q position 10 do the things Which
the management feels unequal to because
they can utilize the road in connection
