BURNED TO DEATH.
Eddie Haire Of Woodbine Meets an
Awful Fate.

WooDBINE, April Eddie Hare,
eleven year old son of Mrs. David
Hare, met a fearful death from
burning, passing away in agony this
morning He was burning rubbish
in the fields with an elder brother
yesterday afternoon. The brother
went away on an errand leaving
Eddie at work. When he returned
the boys clothes were on fire and be-
fore the flames could be extinguished
be was so badly burned that death
followed, the physician being unable
to do more than alleviate the suffer
ing.
Mrs. Hare is deserving Of much
sympathy. Her husband died only a
few years ago and her boys were her
pride.

Finally VIM. Ramsey moved to re.

organization Of road overseers and
township officers was formed with
VIM. Ramsey as chairman and Frank
Sullivan Of Willowdale as secretary.

ages Of good highways to country and

g. 7. Livingston seemed to be hav.
ing one Of his kicking days and pro.
ceeded knock on the whole move
ment. He said he was perfectly sat-
flied with the roads as they are and
no farmer ought to complain. He
believed that the convention was
some deep dark scheme Of the octo-
pus To rob the dear people. Indeed
he seemed to suspect that Mark
Hanna had ordered the convention
held In order to have the whole
county mscadamized. About the
only suggestion be could offer was to
pay $3.50 day to road overseers.
William Ramsey also scented the
octopos aiar of and was opposed to
macadamizing the roads.

fh. funston Is N TROUBLE
lie Hanged Two Fillpinos Without
diving Them TriaI-And May
Be Court. rlartialed.

Manila, Aprilt0.-An interest
ing topic of conversation in army
circles is the Investigation of
Brigadier General Friedrich
Funston's execution of two Fill.
pinos and possibility of court
marhsal resulting therefrom.
The story is that the Filipinos
captured three Macabebe scouts,
who were crossing the country
near San Isidro and were pre-
pairing to kill them, when one of
the Macabebes escaped and
found General Funston with a
scouting party near. This man
guided the Americans to the res
cue of his companions. and when
the troops approached the Fill
pinos fled, leaving.the Macabebes.
Several of the Filipinos were
shot and General Funston cap
tured two of them, took them to
the village square and hanged
them without trial, as warning
to the Filipinos. The present
method of warfare and the in
stances of mutilation of prison
erS have incenSed the American
soldiers to such a degree that
they feel justified in making re-
prisals which has been done on
several occasions recently.
There is q strong feeling
among the residents and friendly
Filipinos that the Chinese Gener-
al Pana, who, as announced on
March 81, surrendered to Briga-
dier General Kobbe, after ter
rorizing the province of Panama,
should be severely punished. 1t
is pointed out that his career has
been more that of a brigand than
of a soldier, as he looted and ex-
torted money from wealthy ma
tives, and burned alive some of
his own followers who intended
to desert him.
1t is believed Pana surrender
ed because he feared his own
men, and that he expected to be
paroled, like other officers, and
enjoy the fruits of his brigand
age.
