IT rs REFRESHING.

1T is refreshing to note the sub
sidence of the recent wave of sentI
mental sympathy for Aguinaldo and
his army. AS the truth is disclosed,
and the world learns the irresponsible
character of the so-called Filipino
government, and hears of the atrocI-
ties committed by its army against
the Red Cross, the Spanish prisoners,
and even the Filipino people, the
Hoarites begin to understand the
absurdlty of their recent hysterical
declamations. They begin to realize
that it was a mistake to measure
their sentimental guesswork against
the matured judgment and reliable
Information of the administration.
President Mckinley has not been
firing in the air. His sources of in
formation were official and trust
worthy. Months ago he learned
from Dewey, Wildman, Merritt,
Otis and o,her officials of the dlplo
matte and consular service and the
army and the navy, the truth con-
cernIng Aguinaldo and his govern
ment and array. He knew that 1t
would never do to pull down the
flag and leave the islands to be
plundered and oppressed by bar
barians, because that step would
have set the United States back 100
years in the estimation of clviliza-
tion.
The Hoarites have made the
further mistake of assuming that
Aguinaldo represents the diverse
interests of the islands, and that his
government was the choice of a
homogeneous nation. AS matter of
fact, his so called army of 10000 in,
surgents is only one-three. hundredth
part o. the Filipino population, and
recent disclosures show that the
larger part OF these 10000 soldiers
have been fighting un'ler durcss.
For these deceived and unwilling
conscripts a sense of pity rises; but
for Aguinaldo and his treacherous
lieutenants, pity is wasted, sentiment.
The United States has fed Them and
clothed them has given them arms
and helped to rid them of their OPP
pressors. It was proceeding to deal
with them and their country in a
spirit of unexampled breadth and
generosity when they turned on their
benefactor and bit the hand extended
to aid them. knowledge of these
facts is sitting into the, minds of the
most hysterical Hoarites.-Spokes-

Then there were cucumber seeds and
watermelon seeds, because every one
knows how cooling are watermelons and
cUcumbers. They are to combat the zig
neous element and make 1t retire to its
proper sphere.
A handful of big brown beetles was
added to make Suey increase in beauty
or to take on more fat. The beetles are
fat and soft themselves, so increase those
attributes in her who eats them.
A handful of spiders went in. Spiders
are hungry. They eat and never have
enough; so spiders help to create an ap-
petite and make everything taste good,
even in n boarding house.
He added the last ingredient, a handful
of waters which looked and smelled like
parsnip. but which he called wang tsing,
or bright slave.
While we had been talking messenger
brought in a stick of wood shaped like a
knife. The handle part was red and on
the blade were some black characters.
He said it was notice for him to attend
a meeting of his company. He tied up
the parcel, about six inches square,
tucked the folded prescription into the
grass string with which he tied up the
bundle, leaving a loop to carry it by.
Then Suey asked him for something
else and he consulted his book of pre-
scriptions. He made up another much
smaller prescription, but did not tell US
what went into it. When we had saId

told me she had asked him to give her
something to make her hair stop falling

dried rats go into the prescription, and
Suey said I was right but not to say
anything about rats before a Chinaman
because he does not like it. I asked her
If she did not think the dose would be
hard to take.
Not SO bad as sickness she an
swered. Bad devils not like bad devils
go way" Which meant she could stand
it, but the bad devils Of sickness could
not and would go away and let the melon
and cucumber seeds do their work and
bring harmony in her sublime organiza-
ton
Suey was to pour four bowls Of water
over the medicines and boil them. When
the four measures of water had been
teacupsful, she was to drink it as hot
and as quickly as she could.
She was quite sure she would soon be
well, and I agreed with her when she
quoted to me the proverb while the
medicine works the patient is under the
care of the most high one"
She told me another proverb the Chi
nese have which says, "A doctor has the
heart to cut flesh off his own thigh to
give to his patient, but never the heart
to deceive him.. That would be quite
as true in English as Chinese.
Suey had been charged to bring home
sundry articles for her neighbors, and
as the parcels Of medicine were large
suggested to her to leave them in the
first shop she entered, as she wanted to
go into several.
She looked her horror at my ignorance
and then explained that around the rest
ing-place of medicine all the devils of
illness lurked, and any man would very
much dislike her to leave such a COM
pany in his shop to destroy him and his
business. HELEN GREY.

TWO MEN AGAINST A HUNDRED IN
DAMS
When Plapot, restless, quarrelsome
drink-loving. and his swarthy, hawk
faced following, spread their circle of
smoke-tanned tepees near the construc-
ton line Of the Canadian Pacific Railway
beyond Swift Current, there was inaugur-
ated the preliminary Of massacre, or
whatever form of entertainment the brain
of Piapot might devise.
Then the railway management sent q
remonstrance to the powers. The lieuten-
ant-governor issued an order; and two
policemen rode forth carrying her Majes-
tvs commands. Not a brigade, nor a
troop; the officer bearing the written or
der was but sergeant. With him was
one constable; that was the force that
was to move this turbulent tribe from
good hunting ground to a secluded spot
miles away.
Piapot refused to move. The sergeant
calmly gave him fifteen minutes in which
to begin striking camp. Result fifteen
minutes of abuse. The Indians screamed
defiance at the sergeant. and fired their
guns under the chargers nose as they
circled about him in their pony spirit
war-dance.
When the fifteen minutes were up, the
sergeant threw his picket line to the con-
stable, dismounted, walked over to Chief
Piapot's tepee and calmly knocked the
key-pole out. All the warriors rushed for
their guns. and one of the biggest bluffs
on record was played by the redskin.
But the sergeant continued methodical-
ly knocking key-poles out. and Piapot

cannot allow them to be killed for the

ADVENTURE OF BIG JACK COLLINS.
Then big Jack Collins-wild Irishman
and all the rest of it-went over to the
Siod& camp and arrested three. The
buc.s jostled and showed them, fired pis-
tolls over their heads, but big Jack and
his comrades hung on to their prisoners
and worked their way to the post, with
no sign of annoyance until big buck
spat in Collins face.
A big mutton-leg fist shot out, and the
Sioux lay like a crushed moccasin at
Jacks feet. Take that, ye black baste'
he hissed between clenched teeth; IAN
ye've made me disobey orders, ye foul
fiend!'
Then he marched his prisoners into the
post and reported himself for misconduct
in striking an Indian.
Now little as to the physique of the
Northwestern mounted police. In height
their average is feet 9 inches. with a
chest measurement of 3S inches. Men

SITTING BULL OUTWITTED.
After the killing of Custer Sitting Bull

her Majesty the Queen With 900 lodges
he camped al Wood Mountain just over
the border from Montana. An arrows
flight away was the Northwestern Mount
ed Police post. One morning the police
found six dead SaltauX Indians, scalped
in approved Sioux fashion. seventh
SaltauX, still alive, had seen the killing.
The police buried the dead Indians and
took the living one to their post
With characteristic cheek, Sitting Bull
came, accompanied by chiefs and war
rors, to demand the seventh Saltaux In
Wood Mountain there were 20 policemen
backing Sergeant Mcdonald. With the
chief there were at least 800 warriors
Sitting Bull threw his squat figure from
his pony and thrust the muzZle of his gun
into Sergeant McDonalds stomach. Nc
Donald was typical of the force. He
pushed the gun to one side and told the
chiefs to step inside the gate, stack their
arms and come inside the shack for
pow-wow.
They demurred; the sergeant was firm.
Outside. it was play day In, Bedlam. The

7 T IS appointed unto all men to die
once, but even the stolid Chinaman is
not IN any hurry. One of the Chinese
converts, a girl who had been res
Il cued, educated and married to laun-
dryman, was taken i'll. She had no
idea Of burning punk or even of prepar-
ing sweet smelling feast for the gods
but she did want TO go to Chinese
doctor. White man him he read book;

So All Suey determined to go to a real
sure enough doctor who would give her
medicine as strong as her illness.
She did not think it quite fait to go
on the street by herself. so she asked me
TO come long" in the pretty Chinese
way.
DR. Wang " Fat, or translated, DR.. All
Healing Light, has an office on Chinese
street, as they call Sacramento street
At the foot Of the stairs a big brass sign
announced in Chinese that the doctor in
his exclusive longevity hall" could pre-
scribe 600 medicines truly imported from
the "Anter,' and knew how to cure 400
different diseases.
Friends We're told TO walk in, but others
must ring the bell and wait. The doctor
quickly opened the door and bowling low
asked US to enter.
The room was like my companion-a
mixture Of Chinese and American.
We were shown into tiny consulting
room by a young American woman. All
Suey solemnly sat down before the more
solemn doctor. Neither spoke as she
5laced her barred arm on a small satin
cushion.

Kingdom for the last 5000 years. Even

fore placing the fingers on the pulse is
all laid down in tradition by the man
who for thirty days drank the dew from
bamboo trees to call the genie, who ap-
peared and gave him on the spot a per-
feet knowledge Of all diseases.
Dr.. VI placed his four fingers on Suey's
pulse and moved them as in playing a
flute. Five minutes Of this finger manipu
lation was devoted to her arms. the doc
tor all the time gazing thOughtfully at
the point Of his embroidered shoe, while
Suey kept her eyes fixed solemny on
space.
At length he broke the silence. your

ceeds from a disturbance of the equilib-
rum of the vital spirits. The igneous
principle, too long fed by the excessive

He turned to his desk and covered a
sheet Of paper the size Of one legal cap
with hieroglyphics and handed it to Suey.
Both rose TO their feet and bowed low.
Then Suey looked at her prescription. and
pointing TO one of the ingredients with a
