Mckinley spends a Quiet sabbath.

Pittsburgh, Pa. Aug. 28.-President
and Mrs. Mckinley spent their Sunday
rather quietly, nothing of special note
transpiring to make the day materially
different from rest day at their Wash
ington home. The president. carrying
out his usual custom, arose at seven
o'clock and spent an hour in the library
looking over his important mail. After
breakfast he, with Mrs. Mckinley and
Mrs. Pitcairn, took a stroll through
the extensive grounds surrounding the
Pitcairn residence. At 1O:45 the presi-
dent was driven to Christ NJ. E. church,
where he heard a sermon preached by
Rev. Daniel Dorchester.

PHILIPPINE EVENTS.
The Policy of Cancellation with
War Somewhat Discouraging.
MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENTS BETRAYED
The Mayors of San Pedro Macati and Bal
iuag Caught Aiding the Insurgents-Ma-
Mia Authorities Expecting Trouble
Morang Burned by Americans.

Manila, Aug. %, via Hong Hong.
Aug. 2S.-Recent events have proved
somewhat discouraging 20 officials
who are trying to accompany war
with a policy of Cancellation. Two
new municipal governments have col
lapsed through the treachery of the
MAYORS The mayor of San Pedro Ma
cati, who was elected by the people
under the direction of Prof Dean
Worcester, of the United States adj
visory commission for the Philippines,
was brought to Manila and lodged in
Jail. The United States officers at San
Pedro Macati found that he was using
his Office as recruiting station for the
Philippine army. Four disguised in
surgent officers were helping him.
The mayor of Baliuag was also ar
rested and confined in the same prison.
The Americans caught him passing be-
tween the line of the two armies with
discriminating documents, which the
authorities secured. Another promi-
nent native mayor is under survei1-
lance. When the result of the election
at linus, which Gen. Lawton and
Prof. Worcester engineered, was an
nounced, the Americans inquired as to
the whereabouts of the peoples choice
and were informed that he was in
prison at Bilibid, where the authorities
had placed him on suspicion of being a
revolutioniSt. He was released and in
stalled as mayor.
Such events and conditions tend to
give color to the assertions of foreign
residents acquainted with the native
character, who insist that a great ma
iOritv of the natives SvmOathiZe with
the insurgents and elect officials whom
they know to be revolutionists
For two weeks Manila has been po-
Iced at night with unusual vigilance.
Apparently the authorities are expect
ing trouble. The trend of affairs tends
to make the policy of leniency unpop-
ular among the Americans. When
they abandoned Morong they burned
the whole town.
Col. Smith, of the Twelfth infantry,
who is in command OF Angeles, is skep-
teal regarding Filipino friendliness.
Instead OF allowing the natives to re-
turn to the town as heretofore, he has
ordered his troops to shoot all men try
ing to pass the lines and to turn back
the women and children. He recently
gave the amigos in the town an oppor-
tunity to prove their professed friend
ship, putting them to work at digging
trenches and cleaning streets, but this
only displeased them. The foremost
citizen of Angeles, a lawyer who had
welcomed the Americans with a great
show of cordiality, was found COM
municating with the insurgents. The
Americans promptly marched him off
to San Fernando to stand trial.

MANILA SCHOOLS.
Commission Writes Concerning the
System of Education in the City.

Washington. Aug. 26. The state de-
partment has made public letter from
Mr.. Charles DENLY, acting president of
the Philippine commission. It is dated
Manila, July 1, and says:
We have the honor to inclose the COPY Of
circular issued by the provost marshal general
providing for the opening of the public schools
in this city. 1t will be seen that the teaching
OF the English language is compulsory. Under
the Spanish government small fee was
charged for tuition, but now it is to be entirely
free. The question of whether books shall be
furnished free of cost is being considered by the
military authorities. It is probable that parents
who are able to pay for books will be charged
therefor. Extended observations required to
do so, but the poor will not be charged therefor.
Regular attendance at some school of all
children between the ages of and IL years is
compulsory and the police of each district are
required to enforce attendance and report de-
linquentS. 1t is provided that one hours in
struction per day shall be devoted to the Eng
lish language These holidays are recognized:
January 1, circumcision: January 6, three
kings day; February 2 purification Washing
toms birthday; Thursday and Friday in holy
week; Ascension day on May Il; Assumption
day, August Is; Labor day, September 4; All
Saints, November 1; Thanksgiving day; ST.
Andrews day; Lapurisma, Conception and
Christmas day. There are 16 scool districts in
GLIDING normal school.
The recognition by the American authorities
of the Spanish religious feast days is indicative
OF the tolerance which is being displayed to-
wards the natives of the Philippines. 1t is the
desire of the administration that there should
be as little violence done to the customs of the
FilipinoS as is consistent with the American
constitution, and the recognition of their
ligious festivals as holidays is indicative that
the presidents commission is proceeding in
this spirit. Such Hberality cannot fail to win
the friendship of that part of the native popu-
latiOn-and it is by far the larger part-which
has not been actively enlisted in the rebellion.

linen buster and high-crowned straw hat,
Il m going to do it."
..What are you going to do?" asked the
policeman to whom the stranger had adj
dressed himself.
You know" he went on, without heed
ing the question, that the summer months
are invariably marked by increased out
breaks of all kinds. Mems angry passions

What were you threatening just now?"
asked the policeman, sternly.
Threatening
Eyes. You said you were going to do
something. What are you going to do?"
Pm going to get rich. I'm going to get
some steady employment and save up my
money and invest 1T judiciously and get
rich. There's no end of good you can do
with riches. Rich men are doing a great
deal of good now. They establish schools
and colleges and libraries and let the people
get acquainted with the soothing thoughts
of philosophy and the sublimities of science.
But in the months of July and August you,
as a practical crininologist, have doubtless
observed philosophy and science don't work.
By the time L have got rich there will be
all the colleges and libraries that there will
be need of, and l will cap the summit of
our civilization with bequest for a mann
moth marble refrigerator in each town, so
that when anybody feels his indignation
rising he can go there and wander up and
down the stately corridors and cool off. -

NEARLY A FIGHT.
China to Protect Some of Her Sub
jects' Rights from Russia.

Shanghai, Aug. 2s.-As the outcome
of a dispute regarding the ownership
of some lands at Hankow, on the Yang
Use Kiang, about 700 miles from the
sea, which were purchased in 1868 by
the concern of Jardine, Matheson 81
Co., but were subsequent included IN
the new concessions to Russia, the
owners, under the advice and protec-
ton of Mr.. Hurst, the British consul,
sent workmen to fence in the tract.
After the work was begun a dozen Cos
sacks from the Russian consulate APP
peared on the scene and forcibly elected
the workmen.
The captain of the second-class gun
boat Woodlaslz, specially designed for
river service, after consulting with Mr..
Hurst, landed a party of bluejaclzets
and moved the Woodlark within firing
distance of the Russian consulate. For
a time a fight seemed imminent. but
nothing further occurred. The blue
jackets are now guarding the property.
The British third-class gunboat Esk
has been dispatched to Hanlow from
this port. Great Britain is evidently
determined to uphold British rights.

ADDRESS BY M'KINLEY.
The President Makes a Short Speech at
Ocean Grove, n. 1.-THE Philip
pine Policy.

Ocean Grove, n. j., Aug. 26.-Presi-
dent Mckinley in an address here yes
terday afternoon said: 81 believe there
is more love for our country and that
more people love the flag than ever be-
fore. Wherever that flag is raised it
stands, not for despotism and oppres-
sion, but for liberty, opportunity and
humanity, and what that flag has done
for us we want it to do for all lands
which by the fortunes of war have
come within its jurisdiction. That
flag does not mean one thing in
the United States and another in Porto
Rico and the Philippines. There has
been some doubt in some quarters re-
specting the policy of the government
in the Philippines. I see no harm in
stating it in this presence: Peace first,
then with charity to all, establish a
government of law and order protect
ing life and property and occupation
for the well being of the people who
will participate in it under the stars
and stripes.

HE SOON GOT WELL.
Landing with the BOOtjack on the
Leaders Nose Had a Bene-
fetal Effect.

1t was a sad scene. The old man lay on
MS bed, and by him sat the faithful wife,
holding his worn hand in hers and forcing
back the tears to greet his wandering look
with a smile. She spoke words of comfort
and of hope. But he felt the cold hand
falling on him, and he turned his weary
eyes up to her pale, wan face: ,,
''Jennie, dear wife, l am going"
ooh, no, John-not yet-not yet
..., Yes, dear wife" and he closed his eyes;
about me- There is mist around me gath
ering thicker and thicker, and there, as
through cloud, hear the music of angels
sweet and sad
''No, no, John, dear; that isn't angels;
that's the brass band at the corner"
What" said the dying man. Have
those scoundrels dared to come here when
they know I'm dying? Give me my boot
jack. I'll let 'em see"
And in a towering rage the old man
jumped from his bed, and before his wife
could think he had opened the window and
SHE'D the bootjack at the band.
I've hit that fat leader in the nose!,'
And he went back to bed and got well.-Tit.

THE DREYFUs TRIAL.
The Military Clique Striving Their Hardest
to Keep Col. Du Patty de Clam Out
of NJ. LabOrIs Clutches.

Rennes, Aug. 2S.-'Dead men tell no
tales" This is the barricade behind
which Gen. MERCER and the general
staff have intrenched themselves in the
Dreyfus court-martial. But there is
one weak point in their defense-Col.
Du Patty de Clam, and the military
clique know it and are striving to the
utmost to keep him out of M. Lahori's
clutches. If they can prevent Du Patty
de Clam, who is now called the ''sicl1
man Of the Dreyfus affair." from APP
pearing at the witness bar, they can
effectually put the silence of the tomb
between truth and justice. NJ. Labori
is fighting tooth and nail to drag him
into court, but Col. Jouaust persists in
refusing him the necessary assistance.
He declines to send reputable doctors
to report on the state of Du Patty de
CLAIMS health, which every Dreyfusard
firmly believes to be only diplomatical-
ly affected and that he will recover
quickly enough after the trial. Satur-
days session tore the last shred of
credit from MERCER, but added the
name of Freystaetter to the little roll
of heroes who have risked everything
in the defense of DreVfuS.

PORTO RIcAN AFFAIRS.
Secretary Root WIN Give Them His Ear
nest Attention and Have Plan
Ready for Congress.

Washington, Aug. 26.-The president
and Secretary Root are now giving
consideration to the pleas of the Porto
Ricans for certain reliefs from the
hardships of the military administra-
ton. The recent disastrous hurricane
in the islands has accentuated the ne
cessity of more liberal commercial in
tercOurse between Porto Rico and the
United States, if the Porto Ricans are
to be elevated from the sad condition
in which they find themselves through
Spain's protracted misgoverDment and
misfortune.
The insular commission, which was
charged with drawing up recommends
tions for the civil government of Porto
Rico, has been at work for several
months on a code of laws. Some 5. 900
sections comprise the code, governing
every possible contingency which
might come under the jurisdiction of a
alw court. The code was made up
from the laws of the states and terri
tories which We're found most appli-
cable to conditions in Porto Rico. One
important feature of the code is sec
ton which prohibits the formation of
trusts or combinations and forbids the
operation in Porto Rico of such combi-
nation formed elsewhere. This sec
ton has been drawn with great care
and is supposed to be perfect in its de-
sign to accomplish the desired purpose.
Secretary Root will give Porto Rican
affairs his earnest attention in the next
few months, and when congress as
semb1es will have comprehensive
scheme for the president to submit to
the legislative branch.
