Engine Of steam Thresher Exploded Near
WEly Yesterday Morning.

The engine Of A. j. LockharFs
steam thresher blew up near Wyly
yesterday morning about s O'Clock,
killing Mr. Lockhart instantly ahd
one of his boys was severely but
not fatally injured.
The thresher was at work in the
field Of John Lockhart, and the
force of the explosion carried the
boiler entirely out of the field.
There was a large crowd present
at the time, but strange TO say no
one else was injured. Mr.. Lock
hart was killed instantly. 1t is a
most unfortunate occurrence, and
the news Of Mr. Loci.hart's death
produced a great shock here, where
he has many friends and was re-
garded as one of our most useful
and enterprising citizens.

IN THE PHILIPPINES.

T. w. Barnes, Of Bristow, sends
us for publication the following
letter recently received from Lieut..
Leon Caraway. The letteris dated
at Iloilo May IL, and says ell the
boys are we'll.
Dear Sir and Brother-Iwill first
ask you TO pardon me for failing to
write before now, but you know,
Uncle Tom, that soldier in active
service has very little e'timefor any
thing other than attention to duty.
You were a soldier under the stars
and bars, and know this to be fact.
We have been on this island since
February IL. We were not oppos-
ed by any great force when we land
ed at Iloilo. The insurgents set
FIRE to the city and "lit out" We
marched through the burning city,
under fire from sharpshooters, and
cameinto touch with the insurgents
and drove them beyond Jaro and
into the open rice fields. Here we
left them, and they now are in the
trenches there.
They have only attacked rs once,
and we easily repulsed them. Their
loss was 200 killed and a number
wounded; our loss was / killed and
l5 wounded. This is the only en-
gagement OF Importance we have
had with them. OF course never a
day passes but that our outposts
are fired upon, but we pay very lit
tie attention to that. We are "vet-
Grams" now, and nothing but gen.
eral engagement is noticed.
We have been holding our pres
ent lines since February Is. We
can not make a campaign against
them because we have only two reg
iments (the First Tennessee and
the Eighteenth Infantry } here and
"a battery, and our lines are SO long
that the city would be exposed
should we go out after them. We
have been looking for reinforce
ments from Manila for two months.
Everything points to All early
close of hostilities. Aguinaldo has
been terribly punished on Luzon
lsland and his army driven hither
and thither, and j think "Aggie"
will see the error Of his way and
soon surrender. Two of his officers
came into Manila last week for a
conference with General Otis. An
unconditional surrender is all that
he will give Aggie.
We hope to be on our way home
within the next 80 days. All the
boys are we'll No sickness in the
regiment to amount ~te anything.
Give Mrs Barnes and family my
very kindest regards, and remem-
Der me to all friends.
