WILL NEVER SURRENDER
1t Is Impossible to Starve the
Filipinos Into Submission.
HAVE VAST FOOD STORES
The Soil OF the Islands Is the Most
Fertile and Productive in the
World-Tons of Sugar
and Syrup.

Great Falls, Aug. 4-John Alain
Rhea, sergeant 10Th company, U. S. V.
signal corps, writes his sister, Mrs r.
A. Armstrong of Belt, the following let
ter 1t Is not quite as enthusiastic as
many of General Otis official reports,
but, on its face, it bears evidence of far
greater truth. Sergeant Rhea says, IN
part:
While our friends at home ard the
general public in the states may think
that the Filipino Instruction has been
crushed it may be interesting 20 know
that we are still campaigning. Since
the latter part of March there has
been at least one column out all the
time and sometimes several at once On
April II General Lawton, with several
thousand troops left Manila northward.
AS is customary, a detachment of the
signal corps accompanied the column,
and i write from the standpoint of
signalman, having been transferred
from Company B, 10th Pennsylvania
volunteer infantry, to the 10Th compa-
ny, United States volunteer signal
corps, on March 10.
I'VE saw all kinds of country. If there
are those who think that Philippine soil
is unproductive they should travel
hundred miles or so over it, as we did
l have heard officers and men say that
they never saw such good and product
i've soil in their travels as that seen On
this expedition. And does there exist
one person who thinks that we can
starve the FilipinoS out? He should
visit the vast warehouses filled to the
comb with yellow corn and unhulled
rice and the sugarmilis and storehouses
filled with hundreds of tons of sugar
n 4
that there was enough food in the town
of Balinag alone to feed the entire Fill
pino army six months. The banana
season is just coming, mangoes are
ripening and, with the vast stores of
other food, what is to hinder the in
surgents from holding out indefinitely?
Il regret to say do not think the en-
tire Filipino army will ever surrender:
parts of it may, but not ALL l believe
that we will be obliged to keep after
the insurgents until they are extarn1i-
mated, else there will be continuous
trouble from small bands. A small
band of few hundred man can harass
an army of several thousand. One
morning two members of my company
and an escort of six men while taking
down wire four miles from the nearest
troops We're surrounded by insurrectos
and ordered to surrender or they would
be shot. Our brave boys did not see it
that way and began firing. They fired
and retreated a short distance, firing
again and repeating the procedure un-
til the regiment came to their aid. The
fight lasted all day, yet it was stated
that there We're only 100 or 200 natives
in it. l have forgotten how many ma
tives We're killed. but it was 40 or 80.
Only two Americans We're killed and Is
wounded Just few hours before this
a party of five of us went over this
mil oil CT, o1yy
shows into what dangers we were
placed, we signalmen, and also how a
small band can slip in and annoy us.
But this will not keep on forever"

jacent section of Long Island, taken
with a panic, procured the issue of an
injunction forbidding any one to go
ashore. This injunction was brought
just as a transfer boat, crowded with
passengers, had come up to the wharf
at Fire Island.
1t was a fearful night on the water.
and the passengers could not be got
back to the steamships. The injunc-
ton could not be dissolved before
morning il it could be then, and mean
time the crowded passengers must re-
main cooped up on the transfer boat.
Governor Flower, apprised of the sit
uation, called his legal adviser and
asked:
What will happen if these people
come ashore in spite of the iniunc-
tion?"
They will all have to be arrested
and locked up" said the lawyer
The governor reflected a moment.
Very well,'' he said. Let them come
ashore. Then let them be arrested and
locked up--in the Fire Island hotel!'
This order was carried out. The pas
sengers all came ashore, were put
through the form of an arrest, and
were conducted to comfortable rooms
IN the big hotel, where they had every
possible attention. The front door of
the hotel was locked-but the passen-
gers greatly enjoyed their captivity
They were soon released; the law was
fulfilled, and nobody had the cholera.

A Governor Cuts Red Tape.

From the Youths Companion.
An anecdote is told of the late eX-
Governor Roswell p. Flower of New
York which illustrates certain broad
serviceability in his character. and
also his ingenuity of mind. When he
was governor of the state there was,
one summer, a scare on the subject of
the Introduction of cholera from
abroad, and certain steamers arriving
from Europe We're rigidly quarantined,
although the danger of the introduce
ton of the disease was slight.
1t happened that the governor had
just purchased the Fire Island hotel,
which lay in an isolated position not
far from the spot in New York bay
where the quarantine ships were lying.
1t was at that moment unoceupied by
guests, and the idea struck the benev-
olent governor that the people on the
ships would be much more comfortable,
as wei. as much more out of the dan
ger of taking the cholera which might
be on board, if they were in his big
house than If they remained on the
steamers. So he invited them to come
ashore. If there was any cholera, he
said, it could be effeetually prevented
from spreading from the hotel.
But no sooner was the permission
given than the inhabitants of an ad-
