REPuLsEo ATTACK ON MANILA.

CabIegram From Dewey Believed by Ma.
val Men to Refer to second Battle.
WASHINGTON, Feb. z. - Admiral
Dewey cabled the navy department as
follows:
"MANILA, Feb. 6.
Secretary Navy, Washington:
insurgents have attacked Manila.
The Boston leaves today for Iloilo to re-
heve the Baltimore, which will return
to Manila. Two men wounded yester.
day ON board Monadnook; one seriously.
"DEwEY."
The receipt of Admiral Dewey's dis.
patch announcing that the insurgents
had attacked Manila caused a commo.
tion at the war department as the text
Of the dispatch was transmitted there
by the navy department.
The first conclusion reached was that
another battle was on, and that the in.
surgents were not confining their at
tacks to the American lines, but were
directing them az tie city of Manila
itself. But upon consideration the oiti-
cials reached the conclusion that they
were mistaken in this conclusion, and
that by some of those mishaps that
frequently occur this was simply de.
layed dispatch from Dewey.
The naval opinion was just the re.
verse of this. Naval officers felt sure
that Dewey's dispatches had not been
inverted, ana that there had beeu more
fighting. Of the outcome they had lit.
tie doubt, pointing out that Dewey's
guns command the entire city aud the
approaches beyond, aHording a most
satisfactory backing for General Otis
operations.

A Paint Factory.

Some months ago, we read IN the Kan

painted tt?' The article described a
sign at Harpcr's Ferry, which was paint
ed many years ago--bciore the war
and which is to-day as bright and dis
tinct as when painted
At the time this article appeared in the
World, there was shoemaker at work
for L. Peterson. who read tine article
Strange as it may seem, this shoe-mak
er's father painted that sign when he
1.-THE shoe-maker) was a lad, and the lad
helped his father paint the sign. The old
man died years ago, but the secret did
not die with him, but remained with the
boy. He told Mr. Peterson about it, and
suggested that some one could make a
a nice thing out of it. Mr.. Peterson
bought the formula of him. and interest
ed few other men in the matter and the
result is that company was formed to
start factory to make this paint. The
company secured the old Winans build
ing, south of the square, and opened a
factory, which is now turning out this
superior paint.
We certainly hope and believe they
will succeed III the undertaking. The
paint is applicable to houses, barns.
fences, farm tooIs--in fact, everything
that is to be paidtcd. II You intend to
do any painting, We would advise you TO

We have a good one on a couple of
young clothing statesmen who don't live
tar away. They thought that Wednes-
day would be a good day tor ducks. 30
concluded that they would take the
morning train and 90 out by Westphalia
where they had heard that ducks were
plentiful, and hunt until evening, and
then catch the freight back to town in
the evening. Well they got out to West
phalia all right and proceeded to put i'll
the day in search OF the much heard-of
ducks. Well, the boys became so inter-
ested that they didn't notice the time of
day it was getting to be until, alas, it
was to late--the train was gone. There
was nothing now for them to do but
start out and walk home-17 miles, so
they threw their ducks over their shout
ders and started for home. twas very
tiresome journey for the boys, but they
finally reached home-two weary, mud
despatched boys. But right here is where
the joke comes in. Just as the boys were
getting pretty nearly home they met an
old German friend who hailed them with
Hello! boys, vat you got?' Ducks, y
replied the hunters. Their friend looked
at them moment and then said, well
you blamed Reubens, didn't you know
dem vas mud hens" The boys threw
their ducks" down in disgust and came
home empty handed, saying that thu
ducks were so heavy that they couldn'
carry tbsm.
