Milwaukee, March 21.-At a meet
ing OF the board Of directors of the Mil
Waukee Carnival association the dates
Tor the summer carnival of 1900 were
set for June 26 to %. The plans for
this years carnival will surpass all
past efforts, several radical departures
being booked. The greatest effort will
be devoted to the pageant, which will
be placed upon the street railway and
be electrical in formation. Considera,
BILE difficulty was experienced at New
Orleans in February with their cleo
trial floats, owing to limited power,
but those having this feature in charge
have guaranteed results in that direc-
ton.
There will be twenty floats with
four elaborate band cars, all designed
to carry out tremendously the scheme
selected for Illustration. One of the
new departures decided upon as per-
manency for future years will be the
building each year of some souvenier
OF substantial nature to beautify the
city. This year a carnival column
sixty feet high in prominent street
in commemor ation of some event Of
typical significance will be erected and

Siberian Post Horses.


The horses, the SMALL hardy breed Of
the steppes, are worked up to the last
ounce in them, on good road or bad
and when they reach the welcome post
house are tied up under mere lean to
and there left all in lather to freeze
stiff until their turn of service comes
round again. For some reason which
I have never been able to ascertain
they are invariably tied up with their
heads drawn as high as they will go.
On taking them out for another stage
the driver, whose whip has sort of
saw tooth arrangement affixed to the
end on the side of the stock opposite
the lash, roughly scrapes off with it
the boar frost which has thickly in
crusted their legs and, indeed, their
whole bodies.
At first the poor beasts walk with
the gait of a Dutch doll; but, as the
driver says, he "soon warns them up"
Another popularity of these marvellous
steeds is that they always get a pail
full or more Of ice cold water to drink

Died of Cold in Jail.

Rice Lake, Wis, March 20. - An
aged Swede named Per Person was
found on the street drunk and was
taken to Jail. The weather was very
cold, and it was noticed that his hands
appeared to be frozen, but otherwise
he appeared to be uninjured. In the
jail no fire was built nor had the place
been heated during the day. Next
morning the police found him lying on
the floor in the lookup. A physician
was called, who wished to have him
moved to a place where he could be
warmed and cared for, but when the

BRIGANDs AND MURDER RAMPANT

How the Filipinos Get Finds for Their
Operations-TwentyP Ports Open.
It is also reported that the rebels
are recognizing in the province OF
Zambales, under Mascardo. Brigands
are committing atrocities in the pro-
vince of Nueva Eciga, where they
have murdered twenty natives and
Cinnamon. The Nueva Eciga insur~
gents are heavily taxing local traders
and farmers, with the result that bust
ness is paralyzed and there is a gen
eral scarcity Of food. The funds for
maintaining this guerrilla warfare are
collected from the various towns OF
the island, whether occupied by the
Americans or not, even including Ma
Mia.
In the province of Albay the insur-
gents have ceased harrassing the
Americans, owing, it is reported, to a
lack of ammunition; but they continue
ravaging the country by burning and
looting. The natives are firing of this
sort of thing and threaten to turn
against the marauders. Already the
townspeople of Legaspi, Albay and
Donzol are slowly returning. to their
homes. Major Allen, Of the Forty
third regiment, has been appointed
military governor Of the island of Sa-
mar, where Lukban, the former leader
of the rebels in that locality, is still in
the mountains.
General Kobbe has opened twenty
ports in the southern part Of Luzon
and in the islands of Samars and Leyte,
the result of which is to stimulate
trade there, although only temporarily,
as the country opened is non-produc-
tive and apparently non-consuming

Evidence accumulates of the treason
and perfidy of the municipal presidents
in the provinces of Gen. MacArthurs
district. The presidents of several
towns in Lepanto and Union provinces
have declined to continue in their po-
sitions, saying that they do not desire
any further identification with the
Americans Travel between the towns

ing more dangerous. All wagon trains
must be escorted by heavy guards in

Natives Fighting to Force the Best Terms

Continue Active at Number of Points
Guerrilla Warfare Carried On and Many
Acts of Brigandage and Atrocity.
Manila, March 19.-General Otis con-
siders Manila the most troublesome
center in the situation today. The in
surgent junta here, in conjunction with
that in Hong Kong, is growing active.
The military authorities have been
forced to put stop to Mabini's inter
course with the public. The local and
foreign press considers his recent ut
terances calculated to incite the Fill
pinos to a continued revolt and prejudi-
cial to American control. Flores. who
has just arrived here, says he comes
trusting to American leniency. and that
he would not have dared come to Ma
Mia if Spain were yet in control. He
cherises the hopes and aspirations
which actuated him when in the field,
and desires to watch congressional &C.
ton upon the question Of the Philip
pines.
Object of Insurgent Resistance
The insurgents, he says, do not ex-
pect to vanquish the Americans, but
are maintaining a resistance with the
idea of forcing congress to accord them
the best possible terms. A number OF
representative insurgent leaders from
different parts Of Luzon have recently
been in conference in Manila. Some
have been placed under arrest, but the
others thus far have not been inter-
fered with Louis Spitzel, head Of the
firm of Louis Spitzel & Co., contractors
to the Chinese government, and him.
self a suspected filibuster, came from
Hong Kong to Manila last week and
was temporarily detained in custody
on suspicion.
Arms Landed on the Coast.
1t is asserted upon good authority
that three loads Of arms and ammunl-
ton have recently been landed on the
east coast of Luzon, Captain Taylor, of
the Thirty-ninth regiment, recently cap
tured twelve new Mausers near Ca
LAMBDA. Reports are current here of &C
tive rebel reorganization in the province
of Morong, where the insurgent leaders
are said to be assisted by prominent
Spanish residents. Inhabitants OF this
province who are now in Manila have
been advised not to return to their
homes, but to remain under the pro-
lection of the Americans.
