work will not prove to be fruitless but
may they have an abundant harvest.
Last Saturday evening a cloud was
seen to rise in the North, and within n
short time there came mighty wind,
which caused trees and few shelters
and outbuildings to fall before it. Then
the rain began to pour, and for few
minutes it seemed that everything was
going, but then it ceased and a hail
followed. Much damage was done to
cotton and corn, but we have heard of
nothing serious.
Again the death angel has visited our
community carrying with him a be-
loved mother, Mrs. hiargnret HicDan-
iel, the widow of the late w. II. Nc
Daniel, who preceded her to the grave
some twenty-seven years ago. Mrs.
Mcdaniel was in her SEVENTEEN year.
She has not been able to get out Of her
house in thirteen years, having been n
cripple, but her death was brought ON
by paralysis. She died last Sunday
and was buried on the following Mon
day at Hopewell. She leaves eight
children and n host Of friends to mourn
her death. 1t seems sad to give uD n

American Forces Attack Rebels Near
Guagua and Drive Them From

Washington, Oct. 3O.-The navy de-
partment has received a report from
superintendent Leary, naval governor
OF the Island of Guam, ceded to the
United States by Spain, to the effect
that he had ben compelled to take hero
ic measures with the friars there. He
found his authority as governor being
subverted by the friars. who resisted
every measure of reform he promulgat-
ed, no matter of what character,
through spirit of intense conservatism
and belief that disturbance of the old
order of things would cause them to
lose their hold on the natives. After ex-
lausting all other means OF overcoming
this influence. Leary reports that he
was obliged to notify half a dozen frars
that they might have free transporta-
ton from the island, coupled with the
information that he would expect them
to avail themselves of the Offer That
left but one friar on the island. a man
whose reputation was such as to con-
vince Leary of his fitness to remain.
The report was sent to the president
and was shown to number of other
officials, among whom it occasioned
much interest.

Gen. iOunRss March TO CaOaualuau
Greatly Hampercd by Mud.
Manila, Oct. 30.-Gen. Young is ad-
yancing upon Cabanaluan under diff
cuIties. The country is furrowed with
rivers aId deep ravines the bridges
over which have been destroyed; the
mud is deep, rations are short and the
transportation of supplies has been
delayed by low water and the poor con-
dition of the roads. There are sufficient
stores, however, to keep the brigade.
The insurgents for a long time have
lived off the country, impoverishing 1t.
The American horses are not yet ac-
customed to the native grass and long
bullock train has left San Fernando
carrying hay of the valley.
The Spaniards report that there are
no insurgents at Cabanaluan.
The gunboat Laguna de Bay dis
persed force of rebels who were en-
gagged in constructing trenches beyond
Santa Rosa. The boat was fired upon
by a. party bearing a white flag. She is
now aground.
Numbers of Chinese are coming to

1t Is reported that Aguinaldo and the
Filipino congress are still at Tarlac.
There are about 500 insurgents before

Havana. Oct. 30.-Gen. Rus Rivera
said yesterday he had received no Off
cial notice that he had been relieved
from the Office of civil governor of Ha-
vana and would like to know to whom
he should transfer his authority.
La Lucha lays the blame for Gen.
Riyera's removal on Senor Mendez Ca
pote, secretary of state in the governor
generals cabinet, whom it calls in
competent and useless" and Ell Cubano
says the entire Cuban cabinet should
have resigned before consenting to the
dismissal Of Gen. Rivera.
Gen. Erique Collazo said that Cen
erals Lacret. Rodriguez, Maso and 9TH
ers will refuse to accept positions under
the American regime as a protest
against the removal OF Gen Rivera.

Ynqui Prisoners Brought In.

about thirty Yaqui Indian prisoners.
who were captured near Sahuaripa a
few days ago. The prisoners are being
taken to Guaymas, where they will be
confined in prison. The fact that the
prisoners are alive proves the falsity
of the report that had been current
that all Indian prisoners captured up to
this time have been shot. 1t Is known,
however, that number OF prisoners
have met their death at the hands of
the soldiers, but it is claimed that they
were attempting to escape when shot.
1t is learned from these recent arriv-
ais from the Indian country that the
expected general engagement between
the troops and Indians has not yet ta-
ken place.

CRITICISMS HAVE NO EFFECT.
British omcers VIII Continue to Lead
Their Men in the Open.

British Officers VIII Continue to Lead
Their Men In the Open.
London, Oct 30.-The large number
of British officers killed in the battles
which have already taken place in Ma
tai brought out strenuous protests from
many quarters against the ancient GUS
tom of British officers in refusing to
take cover under fire. From the figures
at Glencoe, 1t is apparent that one out
of every four men killed was an officer,
whereas organization exists upon the
principle that to every twenty-five men
there is one officer. 1t is evident that If
the same ratio of mortality is kept up
the British forces will become seriously
under ofIicered. Among the enlisted
men at Glencoe, the proportion killed to,
the wounded was thirty to 1885, while ten
officers were killed to twenty-five ofti-
GERS wounded. The difference in per-
centage leads to the conclusion that
many officers We're hit more than once.
and kept on leading their men after the
first wound.
Emperor williams recent criticism
of the British officers refusal to take
cover is now frequently quoted. The
feeling in the army itself is that though
the regulations do not say officers must
not lie down it is such an old-estab-
lished principle that it would take
brave man to inaugurate the change
and the adage of British soldiers, Fol
low wherever the officer leads" is held
still to be intensely true, for though
the officers believe the personnel of the
army is as good as ever it has been in
the history of Great Britain, they at the
same time maintain that Tommy At
kins' needs more leading than any man
in the world. SO the spilling of Great
Britain's best blood is likely to continue
for the present.
The proportion of the casualties as
whole has caused a thrill of horror and
sympathy throughout Great Britain.
for the people now begin to realize what
a fight with a civilized enemy means.
Old soldiers point out that at the Alma,
one of the bloodiest battles in Great
Britain's annals, the casualties totalled
only 6 per cent, whereas. in the recent
Boer engagements, they considerably
exceed that figure.
Gen. Whites strategy and the execu-
ton of his movements are warmly
praised and 1t is said at the clubs that
Gen. Sir Redvers Butler will have to
| hurry up or Gen. White will get peer

Washington, Oct 3O.-On positive in
formation the statement can be made
that Gen. Lawton and Gen. Macarthur
are to be given mora latitude in the fu-
ture operations In the Philippines. and
that in measure Gen. Otis will be re-
lieved of some of the responsibilities.
President Mckinley, after a thorough
study of the situation. and after fully
sizing up the capabilities of all the men
concerned, has decided that the COM
manding officers in the field shall have
more authority in the conduct OF the
campaign than heretofore.
Gen. Otis will not be relieved of his
command, and there will be no change
except in the manner described
The. president has been informed that
the rainy season is drawing to a close.
and that the campaign can be pushed
to a speedy finish when 1t once begins.
The president is hopeful that an early
end will be put to the insurrection, and
believes that the present show of force
will accomplish much. He is rather
inclined to believe tina, as soon as the
first heavy blow is struck the insur-
gents will surrender.
his callers recently about the Philip
pines, and all of them who belong to
his party have approved the course
that has been decided upon. Senator
Sewell, of New Jersey. whose abilities
as a military leader are well known,

what is to be done.

Experts Talk of the War.

Brussels. Oct 3O.-Gen. Briaimont
the highest military authority of Bel
GUM, and recognized throughout
Europe as one OF the greatest military
tacticians alive had this to say of the
war in South Africa:
The news we are getting from South
Africa is too confused, and the contra
dictions are too numerous to afford a
basis for any decided opinion. Even
our Natal maps are too imperfect to
enable the continental experts to fol-
low the campaign scientifically.
Probably as soon as the British re-
Inducements reach Durham the whole
aspect of things will change, the Beers
being reduced To assume a strictly de-
fensive attitude which, in such hilly
country as the Transvaal, may permit
of long resistance, but even on this
point no serious continental authority
ought to venture upon any absolute
prediction.
The fact which strikes me as a
conclusion that may be deduced from
what we have seen of the war is the in
sufiiciency of the British military or
ganization. l can not conceive why.
having to contend against such small
people as the Beers, devoid of military
organization and not really well armed.

lay such strain upon its resources
and be obliged to call out the whole or
part of its reserves. That is full evil
dence that If Great Britain had UNDER

power the British could not hold the
