The IspravfffRi,5 Sor rural police. of the
more remote, Districts of the Taiga gold
fields in Siberia Have lately made the dis
covery of a~s9mp1stely organized vehmger
icht among t.he, Rative and eQlonist mining
population in tthatsregion. but so far all the
efforts of the, local authorities to single out
and identify,t .aRgn of the guilty members
have proved. ,frnitless. Suspicion was first
aroused by the. CONSTANT mysterious disap
pearances Of persOns of bad character,
more especially among the indigenous
tribesmen kpaYp cas- the Staratel1i, noted
for their peouiatiYe proclivities. These dis
appearances even TOW continue, despite the

masked exeeutio1ers- 1t transpres that
one of the rules of the secret association is
IN order to prevent social strife and scan
dial, not to tolerance the presence of any
woman of doubtful character about the
gold mines. The extreme penalty is not
often carried out against woman, even of
the worst reputation, but if she disregard
the warning to leave, she is seized stripped
and ffogged. and by some means secretly
conveyed out Of the settlement. .blindfoIded
and gagged. When the executive of the
lynch tribunal wish to emphasize a case OF
punishment the severed head or limb of
the victim is left exposed in some conspic-
nous place.
There is no doubt that this Siberian
Vehmgericht originated in the supineness
and corruption of the police, several men,
bers of which have also disappeared. The
police admit that the secret tribunal sue
oeeded in establishing. a high standard of
honesty. morality and social order among
the Taiga gold mining population.

A recent copy of the Gaceta de FilipinaS,
Aguinaldo's official organ. received at the
War Department. contains manifesto in
celebration of the so-called insurgent vic
tories in the year 1896 in which Aguinaldo
agrees to place at liberty the sick civil and
military Spanish prisoners in the hands of
the insurgents. He states that previous
decree of the same character, declaring the
concentration of the Spanish prisoners and
their delivery from Imprisonment could not
be carried out on account of the persistent
warfare waged by the Americans and the
bomba rdment of San Fernando de la Union,
which reduced that city and others and
KILLED innocent women ands children and
unhappy fishermen" A second decree was
issued in celebration of the anniversary of
alleged conquest, in which Aguinaldo
held in the capital at Tarlac. He also re-
peals on paper, all the sentences for minor
military and civil offenses throughout the
island and declares that all deserters from
his army who return within a month will
be immune from punishment. The pa
per says that a great fiesta was held at
Victoria in honor of an insurgent generals
birthday, on which occasion all the Ameri-
can prisoners were given 50 each and al
lowed the freedom of the town.
1t is noticed that Aguinaldo's decree re-
the clause "all American prisoners held In
the capital at Tarlac." Under that aualifi-
cation evasion of the execution of the de-
cree would be easy by the simple removal
of the prisoners to another place.
Insurgent ORcer Caught Ina Manila
Mail advices to the War Department
state that native with commission as
lieutenant colonel in the insurgent army
has been captured in Manila. The prison
err had credentials from Aguinaldo to COL
lect taxes from the Inhabitants of Manila
and had been doing so and remitting the
money to the rebel commander. No mem

The one great ambition that has
an everpoweriug influence over the
Young men of the United States, is
to enter the political arena and rise
to the dizzy heights of prominence.
MANY a successful business career,
many promising young lawyers, and
a multitude of farmers, have been
sacrificed to this ambition. The
pathway of the politician is check
cred with disappointments, griets
and sorrows; today the sun shines
bright for him; he is the proud vic
tor of a hard-fought contest, to-
morrow the rays of this same sun
are hid behind the cloud of ignomi
nious and cruel defeat
Henry Clay, Daniel Webster
Samuel Tilden, Jas. &. Blaine and a
host of others, enjoyed the privi
lege of great prominence in the
politics Of America, tut their last
DAYS we're days of sadness and dis
appointment. For this desire tol
political fame is cumulative-tht

become suppliants before their sue
cessors for anything which vii

mainder o. their lives.

to hear, may learn a lesson from
the career of these who have thus
spent their whole lives chasing the
phautoms of short-lived fame anC
prominence, Learn a trade, bus
mess, profession that you may bt
your own support, that you may be
independent of the whims anC
caprices of the populace,
