When person builds a house in
Manila be must decide first whether he
prefers death and destruction by earth
quake or typhoon. If he wants to die
by the earthquake method he builds a
masonry house, which tumbles down
on him when the earth Quakes. If he
prefers death by typhoon, he builds a
bamboo house. The earthquake
doesn't affect it, but the typhoon moves
it over into Nindanao. As Manila
gets both typhoons and earthquakes
the choice is imperative.

There was a red flag out in front OF
farm house up in the Swift River
region in Oxford the other day when
Burns was driving past the place. He
can never get by an auction sale. There
is something about a bargain at yendue
that strikes him just where he lives,
So Burns hitehed his horse and stopped
on the outskirts of the crowd. He re-
membered that at the last auction he
attended, he bought two pod augers
and an OK yoke, and this time he steel
ed himself lest he might commit sim
liar egregiousness. In fact he conclud-
ed that he would't bid at all.
But when the crowd got well walked
up over Jersey heifer, Burns Clipped in
a bid or two, and finally got to going
hard against red-whiskered man who
carried a whip in his left hand and ex-
perforated violently after every bid.
As the contest waxed somewhat en-
ergetic, Burns reached for his pocket
book. His fingers ran down and down
into his trousers pocket until they slid
into a good big hole. The pocketbook
was gone. You, who have found holes
in your pockets where wallets ought to
be, can, in some measure, appreciate
Burns's feelings.
He stopped bidding, and while the
administered man, still expeetorating,
was paying down an installment on the
heifer, Burns pushed forward through
the crowd and got the auctioneer's ear.
That functionary listened intently.
Then he arose erect once more, and
ia his professional drone commenced:
This gentleman informs me that he
has lost a pocketbook containing the
sum of $500. He offers the sum of Sic
for its return. Now"
I'll give twenty" broke in a. voice
In the corner.
Thirty" cried another
"Thirty-fye," came in determined
tones from the administered man.
THAT was beyond what I could az
ford says Burns, and SO l came away
and left them bidding on it"

Limit of Fifteen ThOuS-

EIGHT NEw. MILITARY POSTS
There Will Be no Restrictions as TO
Citizenship or Educational
Qualifications.

NEW YORK, July IA special to the
Herald from Washington says:
Having heard from General Otis that he
needs s,SSS men to al up the regular
regiments and about 1000 men for the
two volunteer regiments, he was author
lied to enlist. and orders will be issued
tomorrow for the enlistment OF 1900
men. This will actually give Otis about
i4cOO men. Allowing loss OF u per
cent for diseases. wounds, ETC., which,
he stated as the present percentage OF
'ineftectives. he will have, instead Of
an effective force OF 5000 men, one OF
nearly @.SO
The war department has anticipated
the need Of men for the regular regiments
and has 1900 unassigned recruits
to Manila within two weeks, Four thou-
sand recruits are now being drilled at the
Preside and will sail the middle Of the
month. leaving only sec men to be sup
piled to the regular regiments. It is
confidently predicted that by August
the eight regiments to be organized in
this country and the goo men required
for the two volunteer regiments at Mani
la will be ready to proceed to Otis aid
In order to put the volunteers in an et-
fective condition as rapidly as possible,
eight military posts, one for each regi-
meni will be selected, to which recruits
will be sent, as follows:
Plattsburg barracks, n. Y; Pt. Thomas
Ky: Columbus barracks, o.; Fort Sheri-
dan, Ill.,; Leavneworth, Kas., and the
Preside, CAL, and probably Fort Crook,
Neb., and Vancouver barracks. The va.
canctes existing in the regular regiments
under General Otis command represent
men whose terms of enlistment have ex-
pISu, anu IlVA NdSudlSs VhuSN VI tHN
vacancies exist in the regiments which
sailed for Manila with Merritt. or the
volunteers, 1859 still remain in Manila
and they will be returned as quickly as
possible.
The fact that Otis has reduced to two
regiments the number to be organized at
Manila, and has asked for 1000 to I'LL them
up, shows that he has had much diff
Guilty to obtain resnllstment of volun-
teers. It is estimated that he has OBJ
taEned only 500 men, not enough 10 form
one regiment.
Under the instructions to recruiting Of
ficers enlistments for three year recruits
Intended for regular regiments and en-.
listments Of volunteers for two years will
be made In the case OF the volunteers
there will be no restrictions as to cltl-
zenshlp or educational qualifications Re.
cruiting officers have previously been
compelled to reject men who were not
citizens of the United States or uneducat-
ed and have gone so far as to throw
out men who were fatfooted. While it is
intended to obtain as high a class Of
men for the volunteer service as possible,
It is pointed out that the law will allow
the enlistment of recruits showing suf-
ficIent intelligence to perform duty as
American soldiers.
