pended and the warehouses are filled with
r%otting sugar.
At Manila the situation is critical. but
paclficatlOn is possible in spite of the
unyielding attitude of the Filipinos. 1t
is reported that the rebel government at
Malolos is willing that the Americans
should establish a prOtectCrate on the
condition that they promise to give the
F~ilipinos absolute independence within a
stated time. 1t is also said that he Flip
mos will demand official recognition.
Efforts are being made to bring about
another conference with the rebels. The
educated Filipinos are anxious to avoid
trouble and it is hoped that the militant
Filipinos will recede before wiser counsel.
In the meantime the scene is extreme on
both sides.

largest establishments of it's kind in the

hotel. The fire, which originated in the
basement, was by 8 o'clock beyond all
control, and that part of the building
under the first floor was a seething mass
of flame. The center portion of the first
floor soon fell. The flames beneath had
been eating AVA the foundation and the
firemen We're forced to retire hurriedly.
The building was valued at $3.50, 900, with
an insurance of $70,0 600. The stock was
valued at about $500 900, with an insur-
ance of $275, 600.

A curious and delightful bird story
comes from Belgium, says the Chicago
News. Two storks succeeded in building
their nest in a village letter box. The
mother stork laid her eggs in the middle
of the letters and proceeded to hatch
them in a spirit of devoted patience and
vigilance, never stirring even when dis
covered by the postman, who came to
take the letters. By and by - little storks
greeted the friendly postman with open
beaks and clamorous sounds. The
charming family was allowed to remain
in the home of its choice, being placed
under the protection of the postmaster
and the cure of the village.
Beavers are once more recovering in
number in the northern part of America.
Since they became so scarce that trap
ping did not pay the few that remained
have made fresh colonies. They are now
found as near to the Atlantic coast as
New Brunswick, where moose huntres
report their presence in places where
they AVE not been seen for years. New
Brunswick has for some time enforced a
close time for beavers, but this ends next
year. 1t is also noted that both arctic
whales and the antarctic sea lions are in
creasing. Four vessels brought $3.50, 600
worth of whale products to San Fran
cisco and a sailing vessel has returned
from the antartic after a profitable vow
age.
Instead of crying "Ladybird, ladybird,
fly away homer the Australian govern
ment is taking steps to encourage these
pretty insects in their country, for while
they are perfectly harmless they do
farmers and fruit growers great service
by consuming the aphides which prey
upon certain leaves and grains and the
present most appreciated by the Austral-
ian fruit farmer just now is a little par
eel of the spotted beetle which we pref
tily name a %ladybird. 1t may not be gen.
orally known that these insects are sup
posed to bring good luch to whomsoever
they light upon and, as novelties are al
ways being sought for, why does not
some enterprising jeweler produce the
"lucky ladybird?"
