DEs MONIES, Oct 24.-The Fifty.irst
Iowa regiment, which arrived in. San
Francisco Sunday, has been in con-
tinuous service for the United States
government since April q, 1885, The
history Of the Fifty-tirst Is notable IN
many respects. 1t is full OF exciting
incidents and from time to time has
tlisproven prophecies made by the wise
ones In most remarkable manner. 1t
was the last regiment to leave Camp
Mckinley and many proclaimed that it
would never get In sight of the encsny.
but 1t was the only regiment that re-
ceived taste OF real war and 1t had
plenty. 1t was almost the last OF the
volunteer regiments to leave San Fran
cisco and then the wise ones said 1t
would soon be In the thick of the fight
ing. Instead, 1t took transport voy-
age Of SO days, going to Manila, and
then to Iloilo and back to Manila be-
fore being d;sembarked. After landing
at Cavite the regiment did garrison
duty for a time and the wise ones again
got in their work and declared the reg
iment would never be sent to the front.
But it was and remained at the front
continuously, longer than any other
volunteer regiment. Different parts OF
the regiment, including the men detail
ed with Bell as scouts, and afterwards
those who enlisted in Bells regiment
and those detailed as artillerymen par
tic.pated in as many skirmish ~
engagements as any other regiment.
The furthest outpostS OF the AI4.srICaA
forces were occupied by Iowa1ls for
weeks. Because of a few swimming
exploits of members Of the Twentieth
Kansas the regiment was denominated
aquatic, but the rowans were on out
post duty during the rainy season and
had repeated engagements with the Fill
ipinos when they waded through water
above the waist and communication be-
tween different companies was for
weeks more easily made in boats than
on foot.
It is only fair to explain here that
when the history of the Philippine cam
paign is fully written the work Of the
IOwans will y cupy a larger proportion
ate space than has been given It in
the press dispatches. The reason why
the Iowans have been somewhat neg
lected Is not hard to understand when
the situation is considered. When hos
.tilities first opened the 1owans were
on thet ocean. The first fighting was
more deliberately reported than that
which came later when skIrmishes be-
came weekly and almost daily occur
renee. Later when the 1owans went to
the front the correspondents were To-
Gated with the regiments already there,
with the officers OF which they were
acquainted and with whom they were
on friendly terms It followed that the
correspondents wrote more fully OF the
work Of such regiments as the First
win which they were located. than Of

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 23.-The Fifty
FIRST regiment of Iowa volunteers,
numbering 764 men and 40 officers, I'M
der the command Of Col. J. G. Lopez,
arrived here yesterday from Manila on
the transport Senator. There was no
aickness aboard. The only death re-
ported is that Of Edwyne Kissick,
Company F, oskaloosa, who died at
Nagasaki of dysentery. The only in
.cident of the voyage was an accident
that happened to Edwin Statler, Com
pany NJ, and Homer w. Read, OF ster-
ling, member Of Company A, OF Des
Moines, three days out from Nagasaki.
They were injured by the breaking OF
the asrer sail, which fell on them.
Statleys leg was broken and Read sus-
tanned / fracture of the skull. Both
men a>e doing well. The Senator was
caught in the tail of the typhoon en-
scountered by the steamer Empress OF
Japan. She was tossed lively for ssv-
-eral hours, but suffered no severe dam
age. So serious did the situation seem
to the officers of the steamer at one
time that all the passengers were or
dered below and the matches were bat
tened down. Adjutant General Byers,
representing Governor Shaw, and 300
citizens of Iowa met the Senator at the
Golden Gate in q number of tugs.
They received q royal reception from
the volunteers. The regiment will be
taken off the transport to-day.
Although there were two mastering
officers on board it appears that
the work of mastering the regiment
out has not been completed and &C.
cording to statement Of Gen. Byers
the regiment will not start home for
two weeks.
"All that is needed now" said Col.
Lopez to an interviewer lis an aggres
sive campaign, with plenty of men,
and this war will be settled in short
order. I have nothing whatever to say
about any of my superior officers, ex-
cept that I believe General Otis to be
thoroughly patriotic and conscientious
Above everything the Filipinos must
be thoroughly whipped. This is the
only thing they will appreciate just
now. As to my opinion as to whether
we should hold the Philippines, will
give it after my present duty in the
premises is accomplished. Many of
the leaders of the Filipinos are we'll
educated, cultured men, and believe
capable Of giving their people a good
government, but as have said before,
the FIRST thing to do is to whip them.
y Every town taken must be held and
war conducted in stern fashion. No
more Of this amigo business. The
Philippines lisa rich country ard capa-
bic of great commercial development.
Our prestige in the Orient has greatly
increased as result of our war. We
stand in q position to command the
wonderful trade if we will only grasp
the situation. Our volunteers are the
greatest soldiers in the world, be-
lieve. Iowa has a right to be proud of
her regiment. We come home a united
body, no dissensions and loyal to our
country. am proud Of every man
and officer in the regiment. want to
say a word in praise of the American
colony in Yokohama. They treat the
returning volunteers like princes"

WAS UNJUSTLY ACCUSED.
A Carpenters Good Name Saved by
Mission School Teachers
ShreWdneSS

To Miss Louise A. Renwick a teacher
in the Horace Mann School on Mission
street, George G. Damon, a carpenter ac-
cused of theft, owes his exoneration. A
week ago last Thursday, Damon was en-
ployed to do some work on the house of
a peddler named Layonetti After he had
completed the work Mrs. Layonetti of
fered him payment for his services but
he refused to accept money, saying that
if the woman would stand the treat" he
would be satisfied. Accordingly she took
from a purse, which was concealed under
a mattress in the room, some small
change and visited a corner grocery,
where she purchased liquid refreshments.
When she returned the purse containing
800 was gone and shortly afterward
Damon was arrested and charged with
the crime.
While the suspect was in Jail, George
Thomas, son of Mrs. Layonetti, was
spending money lavishly on his compan-
teacher, Miss Renwick noted that he
purchased luxuries with which boys of his
means could not be provided and inquiry
at his home disclosed the fact that his
parents had given him no money to spend.
Another lad named Peter Peterson also
apparently had suddenly acquired mys-
terious wealth While Mrs. Layonetti
questioned Peterson, Miss Renwick exam
ined Thomas and at length drew from him
a full confession that he had stolen his
mothers purse Captain Gillen was noti-
fed and Immediately removed the sus-
picion from Damon's shoulders.

he struck her with a rock, nearly killing
her. He was arrested and tried on the
charge of assault to murder and was SEN
fenced to four years in San Quentin. He
was pardoned out after serving two
years.
Since then she says he has been con-
stantly dunning her for money. and be
cause she refuses to live with him he
has been sending her threatening letters
and also writing to her sister Mrs. Mary
Ellen Kelly calling her a monster.
Since our marriage I have not received
a cent from my husband, but he has got
from me about $4,000 | have forgiven him
more than once and taken him back, but
! am done with him now. He told me
that he was reporter on The Call.
Young Is not and never was a reporter
