The San Juan islander. [volume] (Friday Harbor, Wash.) 1898-1914, 1899-11-30

The whereabouts of Lawtcn and
Young are becoming as mysterious as
Aguinaldo's. The belief is growing at
Manila that Lawton has struck the
trail of the insurgent government"
and is pursuing the ministers into the
Byquia mountains. 1t has been his
ambition to capture the Filipino leader
and he and Young believe that cav
airy brigade, living on the country,
could run them down to any part OF
the island.
One vague report brought in by
Spanish prisoners is that Aguinaldo
and others were nearly surrounded by
Americans soon after the insurgent
chief left Tarlac, but he escaped
through the lines in PEASANTS clothes.
Officers and soldiers arriving at Ca.
balannum from Lawton's force describe
the campaign as one of great hardship.
Many men dropping out sick were left
at various towns without adequate
supplies and attendance, some of them
making their way across terrible roads.
A number of horses were dying, and
many soldiers and even some of the
officers were marching on, half naked,
their clothes having been torn to pieces
in getting through the jungles.
Some of them were reduced almost
to breech-clouts, and hundreds were
barefooted, their shoes being worn out,
and all were living on any sort of pro-
visions. Bread was rare, and cariboo
meat and bananas were the staples.
General Lawton foresaw that the cam
paign would involve such hardships,
but he considered it the quickest and
cheapest way of ending the war.

Manila, Nov. 23.-The gunboat
Helena arrived at Camaguin the night
Of November l2. The watchers of the

dangered, but a searchlight of the
Helena communicated her presence

Charleston were located rang with

condition until his death. Mr.. Ho-
bart's death was due directly to angina
pectoris, complicated with myocarditis.
Nearly all the representatives of for
eign nations in this country have sent
messages of sympathy to Mrs. Hobart.
One of the first persons to express his
sorrow at the death of the vice-presi.
dent was President Mckinley, who had
been notified by telephone by Private
Secretary Evans. Attorney General
Griggs who was in Washington, tele-
graphed that he would return to Pater-
son at the earliest possible moment,
and he is expected to take charge Of
all the details of the funeral.
Although many regarded Mr.. Ho-
bart's illness in the early and latter
part of the summer as serious, it was
not until late in October that his family
and friends began to despair of his
life. Mr.. Hobart was then informed
of the fatal character of his malady-
dilated right heart, due to myocarditis
and he Remarked: "Well, if it must
be that am to 60, l may as we'll be
resigned to my fate.''
The morning of October 81 it was
thought the end had come, but the pa
tient rallied and for more than a week
continued to improve and to eat solid
food with relish. Three days ago,
however, his appetite failed, and he
gradually grew weaker and weaker.
He realized few hours before he be-
came unconscious that he was near to
death, and he said to those about the
bedside: 81 know that my time is
nearly up, but death is welcome to
me-"
Mrs. Hobart remained in the room
to the end and after her husbands g
death until she and her son, who was
with her, were taken away by friends.
Garret Augustus Hobart was ma
tive Jerseyman. He was born near
Long Branch, June 8, 1874. His an
cestors on the fathers side were Eng
lish, and on his mothers side Dutch.
His election with President Mckinley
in 1896, and his capable occupancy OF
the presiding officers chair of the SEN
ate, since March 4. 1897, are well
known.

were nearly familiar enough with Latin and
Greek to develop therefrom the imagination

ever in the face OF the tendency to overvalue
the educational side OF science and the con-
slant expanding OF the insight into the physi-
cal world. He favored thorough study OF the
