A TRAITORS AWFUL FATE.

Old Comrades in Arms.

Old Comrades in Arms.
The tragic scene which attended
the death Of Corporal Leonard F.
Hayes, Americas only traitor in the
Philippines, was witnessed by Ser.
geant George A. Lamarsh Of Company
H, Twentieth Kansas volunteers,
now in this State. Sergeant Lamarsh
went to the Philippines with the
Second Oregon regiment fourteen
months ago. He took part in every
important battle on the island of
Luzon and bears four scars made by
Mauser bullets. Corporal Hayes, the
traitor, became enamored Of a Filipino
beauty and, deserting his comrades,
was placed in charge Of Filipino
battery with the rank Of lieutenant.
He met his death almost in the first
engagement in which he foughtagainst
his country. Speaking Of this battle
Sergeant Lamarsh says:
"We had charged the Filipinos,
driving them back and killing and
wounding many. Among the wound.
ed left on the field we found Hayes,
He was recognized by several Of the
boys. One Of the soldiers Of the
Second Oregon drove bis bayonet
through the body Of the wounded
traitor and lifted him up above his
head and held him there while the
soldiers shot him. The body was
thrown into trench and buried with
several dead Filipinos. We would
have treated him worse II we had
known how" Hayes was corporal
in Company |, First Colorado volun-
teers.
Sergeant Lamarsh arrived in San
Francisco two weeks ago with the
Oregon troops. As he had been
transferred to the Twentieth Kansas
he will not be mustered out until
that regiment returns home, which
be thinks will be in about six weeks.
Lamarsh says that every volunteer in
the Philippines is anxious to return
home, as they are enduring almost
incredible hardships and priva-
tions. He questions the military
policy Of General Otis, but is
profuse In his praise Of General Funs-
ton as an officer and a gentleman.
Lamarsh was on the firing line thirty.
four consecutive days with the Twen.
tieth Kansas. He was shot once in
the foot and three times In the breast.
He took part with Funston in the fa-
nous swim and charge across the
Pasig river. After the rainy season
Is over Lamarsh believes that with an
army Of 10000 men the insurgents
can be quickly subdued or swept
from the island. The Filipinos are
hard TO conquer as they are found in
small punches and run away after fir
ing few volleys. The country Is
rough and broken and the heavy
tropical vegetation affords excellen:
hiding places for the natives. The
heat, Lamarsh says, is almost intol-
cradle and could not be endured by
American soldiers were 1t not for the
sea breezes which sweep over the
island. 1t seemed so cold to Lamarsh
when he reached San Francisco that
he had to borrow an overcoat to keep
warm. In Kansas City last week he
was wearing heavy woolen under
wear. Lamarsh is an intelligent
young man with an excellent address.
He is here looking for position.

FOR THE GIRLS CLUB.
An Excellent Entertainment for Its
Benefit Friday Evening.

An Excellent Entertainment for Its
Benefit Friday Evening.
The Girls Club, which month ago
seemed to be on the verge of dissolu-
ton, has taken out new lease of life.
No sooner did the members become
aware of the way things stood, than
they bestirred themselves and set about
extricating the organization from It's
predicament. In fact, many of them
have shown more enthusiasm for the
club since it's future stood in jeopardy
than ever before, and it seems as If
they had suddenly become aware how
much it meant to them. A commit
tee of girls is getting up an entertain
ment for Friday evening at o'clock,
The admission fee will be Is cents. AT
ter the program, ice cream, cake and
candies will be for sale. 1t is hoped
that those interested in the club will
rally to it's aid
Beside making money to defray the
current expenses, the girls wish to save
money, and offer for sale their nearly
new asbestus full-size gas CRATE.
Full particulars may be had of Miss
Celia M. Tibbetts, 10 John street. The
girls feel that the gas burner is lux
ury that in the attenuated state of the
treasury they ought not to afford, and
they are hoping that some kindly dis
posed person will either give or lend
them for the winter an air-tight stove
If any such person will communicate
with Miss Tibbitts, he will be doing
the club a great favor.

PINKERTON RETURNS.
Highly Pleased With the
Annual Session of Odd
Fellows.

Grand Sire Alfred S. Pinkerton ar
rived home Saturday night, after at
tending the annual session of the SOW
ereign grand lodge of Odd Fellows. held
in Detroit, Mich.
Mr.. Pinkerton reports one of the larg-
est and most successful gatherings of
the body. The work. of the week was
largely of routine nature, but reports
show the financial standing of the or
der to be better than ever in it's his
tory, The total membership in the
United States at present is placed up

One of the features Of the week was
the parade, which was especially we'll
conducted. The people we're hospitable
in the extreme, and did everything pos
stble for the entertainment and well
fare of the visiting delegates.
AS usual, the New England delegates
made up party and travelled in COM
pany both ways. But one stop was
made on the outward trip, at Niagara.
The return trip was made by way Of
the st, Clair river and great lakes
Stops were made at Port Huron, Toron-
to, Montreal and Quebec. In the last
three cfties the delegates were given
receptions and taken about to different
places of interest. Although it rained
most of the week, Grand Sire Pinker-
ton reports most enjoyable time. The
next session will be held in Richmond,
Va
The Massachusetts, delegates included
Grand Sire A. S. Pinkerton and Grand
Representative C. c. Fuller of Worces-
ter, c. N. Alexander of Boston, c. @.
Terrell of Natick, and John Corkhiil Of
Pittsfielo.
Mr.. Pirkerton describes Detroit as n
beautiful city What interested him
more than any other feature was the
manner in. which the streets are cared
for. A great majority of streets in the
business section of the city are paved
with asphalt, which gives excellent sat
isfaction. Such streets as are laid with
block paving are being made over. and
the asphalt laid in place. The streets
are unusually clean. A force of street
sWeeperS is kept at work constantly.
with appreciable results, especially in
the business sections
Mr.. Pinkerton understood that the
present system of paving and care OF
streets was instituted by ex-Mayor
Pinerce, although the work is being
kept up along the same lines by ex-
Congressman Mayberry, the present in
cumbent.
The park system was another feature
that impressed Mr.. Pinkerton the
most beautiful, in his estimation. being
Belle Isle, which is triumph of the
Landscape gardeners art, constructed
on spot originally swamp land.
Still another feature which impressed
Mr. Pinkerton as novel was the system
of street lighting. Clusters of lamps are
arranged at the tops of towers about
200 ieet high, throwing large area of
light, which illumines alleys and back
streets as thoroughly as the Travelled
thoroughfares.
Mr. Pinkerton was asked if he had
heard of the movement to nominate, him
for mayor at the coming city election.
He replied that he had not, in fact
that he considered it little early 10

WORKS FOR ST. PER DAY.
A Heidelberg Student In Woroestse
Shoe Factory.

Shoe Factory.
A Heidelberg student at work in a
shoe factory at dollar day is rather
an unusual thing. even in Worcest~rS
but such thing iS happening today
About a week ago a young German
by the name of Elmer arrived IN WoT-
cester. knowing not q soul here, and
not 9. word of English. His money was
ali gone, he had nothing to eat for a
day, and was as honesick as it fs pos
sibe for g. man to get, He wandered
about the streets Tor several hours, nos
knowing where to turn, and finally ac-
coste6 one of Worcester's prominent
young men. asking If he spoke Ger
man. II happened that he did, and the
German was delighted and poured our
his story into sympathetic ears.
He had studied in Heidelberg for four
half years, he said. and his home was
near Munich. While at the university
he met several men from New England
and was so attracted to them that he
determined to come to America, and
hunt out New England people. He
landed in New York, where he stayed
three weeks, coming on to Worcester
when his money was about gone.
/. A Spy reporter had a talk with him
Saturday evening. and the stame story
was repeated, with the addition that
he had found employment at NELSON'S
shoe factory at dollar a day, and was
very happy over what he considered his
good luck. He is a man of intelligence,
speaking French and Italian as well as
German, and having a good general
knowledge. He was careful in talking
to The Spy man to use only the sim
plest sentences, appreciating his hear
ers small knowledge of German, and
would repeat sentence several times
to make sure that 1t was understood.
So far he hasn't formed a very good
opinion of Worcester. 1t is too cold he
says, and the beer isn't very good. He
hopes to get along very well, however,
though he does not wish to be intro
duced to any of the German residents,
for fear they will take him for a beg
gar.

BRADY ON LITTLE INGERso1Ls.

Rev. James Boyd Brady preached to q
large congregation at Grace church last
night on THE big cure for little Inger-
Soils 1t was a continuation of his re-
ply to his critics. the champions of the
late Col. r. G. Ingersoll.
DR.. Brady was in good voice and his
hearers were in entire sympathy with
his line IF argument. He took the text
from John I'll, eff any man will do his
will, he shall know of the doctrine,
whether it be of God, or whether l
speak of myself"
In the course of his sermon DR. Brady
said that the disease with which little
Ingersolls were afflicted was far more
fatal than cancerous and leprous dis
eases. for these died with the body. In
fidelity was disease Of the soul, and
It's baleful effects never die. A preach
er he compared to a physician, the one
nlinistering to the physical, the other
to the spiritual side of man.
To discuss religious matters, one had
to have experience, and it was this that
qualified the minister of the gospel to
speak with authority. The preacher
made some striking and forceful COM
parsons, and urged upon the little In
gersolls the necessity for prayer II
they approached God in truly earnest
spirit and sought the truth, the dark
ness tnat now enVelopS them would give
way to eternal light. Unless the pulpit
is trIe 10 its mission and attacks inf
deity without giving or asking for
quarter, II would spread from town to
town. ne ton to nation, continent to
continent.
Next Sunday, DIR. Brady announced
last night, he will preach on 1.-THE In
gersollite half-breeds in the pulpit" This
will DOUBTLESS have to do with his min
isterial critics, particularly Rev. George,
w. Kent CT the South Unitarian church
Those close to DIR. Brady say that n
will be the best of the series thus far
preached by him since the beginning of
the Inge1soll controversy.
