A detachment of Gems. Hale
and Wheaton's brigades was en-
gagged for two hours on the morn
ing of the 7th around Manila
clearing the country in front of
their lines on both sides of the
river, the enemy concentrating
with the evident purpose of cut
ting off the garrison at the water
works. The rebets bolted at the
first sign of the advance, separat-
ing into small bodies and keeping
up a running fire. They were
finally fanked and routed.
That afternoon Gen. Hale's
brigade drove the rebels again
away from the waterworks, but
their sharpshooters kept up q
constant fire. Private Lovejoy
was killed and five wounded.
That morning the enemy in
front of Gen. Overshineis line
sent out a flag ofenNce and Lieut..
Koehler with two men advanced
with an interpreter to meet it.
When the Americans were within
200 yards of the rebel party the
latter dragged rifles from behind
their backs and opened fire, but
without effect. Hawthorne's bat
terry responded with two shells
and killed several.

Orders. Her Ships Away.

The German government has
set at r.st effectually the rumors
of purpose on her part, directly
or indirectly, to embarrass the
United States in the Philippine
islands, and has manifested her
desire for the most cordial rela-
tions between the two countries
by ordering the withdrawal of all
her naval vessels from Philippine
waters and placing the lives and
property of her subjects there
under the protection of the Unit
ed States government. This ac-
ton is regarded at Washington as
a master stroke of diplomacy by
which will be removed all posi-
bility of clash between German
and American interests in and

CHANGE IS DESIRED
Club viii Inau-
gurate a New Rule for
Shooting Season.

The Worcester Sportsmen's Club will
undoubtedly make a change in the method
of holding shoots the coming season
which promises to bring greater success
than has attended the shoots in the last
year or two. Weekly shoots will give way
to meets on every second Tuesday, or
twice a month. The practice of holding a
series of shoots for merchandise prizes
Will be done away with and the prizes
Will be awarded 1t the conclusion of each
shoot.
In past years the club has offered valu-
able merchandise prizes for 8 series Of
shoots and the winner was not decided
until b1e end of the series, which lasted
until the end Of the shooting season. The
custom had its faults. After the first few
shoots, entries realized they had no
chance of winning and they stayed away
In some instances the winner could be
picked early in the season, and that de-
tracted from the interest as competition
was not keen. The system of handicap
ping was also at fault. Instead of taking
away from good men, the poor men were
given additional birds and 1t was possible
for a man to have a clean string in every
shoot of the series when he was given too
great a handicap. Scratch men figured out
last year that they could break every bird
that left the traps and not win the race
Under the arrangement which has been
given favorable consideration by the ex-
ecutive committee the race Will be ended
with each shoot Prizes will be offered b.
the club and if the guns desire to make
sweepstake Of the race they will have the
privilege.

RAINIER ON TOP.
French Vote Split in Spencer and Condor
and Fontalne Defeated.

Spencer, April 9-Never in Spencer
have the people been kept in such sus-
pense as they were today. The town
election of today will go on record as
being the longest in the history of the
town, starting at $50 o'clock and end
ing at $40 o'clock. Out Of 1926 voters,
1882 of them cast their votes.
Many surprises were sprung, but
most Of them fell back on the shout
ders Of the men who fvEmed the ring
for downing George H. Kramer.
The war that has been waging be-
tween these two parties for the past
month was ended today by the eltc-
ton of Ramer with the large majority
over his rival Of 43S, over double Con-
don's vote.
L. Z. Moreau and l. D. Achim, The
power behind Condor, depended on the
French voters to elect him, but it was
plainly shown at the polls today that
the French vote was split. Dr. Marc
FOntaine was supposed by the people
to be surely elected, but again it was
shown that the French vote was split
and that they did not support their
own candidates.
The communications that have ap-
peared in a Spencer weekly paper, ac-
cusing Mr.. Ramer of different things,
seemed to have made votes for him
and weakened the Condor patty.
License before the election was con-
coded to the town by lou totes or more,
but 1t went yes only by the small ma
jority of 43.
Teams were out all day driven Ivy
the license and no-lidense people, car
rying voters from the farms and out
skirts of the town, so as to be sure Of
their votes. The people of the town
as a whole are well satisfied at the re
suits Of the election.
The vote in detail:
Moderator Charles 2. Barton; town
clerk, Albert W. Curtis; selectmen. Ma
