HEAVENS DISTANT LAMPS,

We see but dimly through the mist and
vapors,
Amid those earthly damps:
What seems to us but dim, funeral
tapers,
May be Heavens distant lamps.
There is no death! What seems so
is transition;
This life of mortal breath
Is but a suburb of the life elysian,
Whose portal we call death.
She is not dead-the child of our affec.
But gone unto tha schoo
Where she no longer needs our poor
protection,
And Christ himself doth rule.
In that great cloister's stiffness and Sc
clusion,
BY guardian angels led.
Safe from temptation, safe from SINS
pollution
She lives, whom we call dead
Day after day we think what she is
doing
In those bright realms of air;
Year after year, her tender steps pur-
suing.
Behold her gown more fair.
Thus do we tall with her and KEEP I'M
broken
The bond which nature gives.
Thinking that our remembrance, though
unspoken.
May reach her where she lives.
Not as a child shall we again behold
her.
For when with rapture wild
In our remembrance we again enfold
her.
She will not be a child.
Put a fair maiden in her Fathers man
sion,
Clothed with celestial grace,
And beautiful with all the souPs eX'
pansion
Shall we behold her face.

MAY COURT-MARTIAL FUNSTON.
Charge That the General Hung Fill
pfnOs without q Trial.

MANILA, April 9.-An Interesting topic
of conversation in army circles is the in
vestigation of Brigadier General Frederick
the possibility of court-martial resulting
therefrom. The story is that the Filipinos
captured three Maccabebe scouts VINO were
crossing the country near San Iselro and
were preparing to kill them when one of
the Maccabebes escaped and found General
Funston with a scouting party near.
This man guided the Americans to the
troops approached the Filipinos fled, leav-
ing the Maccabebes.
Several of the Filipinos were shot and
General Funston captured two of them,
took them to the Village square and hanged
them without trial, a warning to the
FilipinoS.
The present method of warfare and in
stances Of the mutilation of prisoners have
incensed the American soldiers to such a
degree that they feel justified in making
reprisais, which has been done on several
occasions recently.
There is strong feeling among the resi-
dents and friendly Filipinos that the Chi
nese general, Pana, who. announced
March 81, surrendered to Brig. Gen. Kobbe,
after terroriZing the province of PaIiay,
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 extmted money by torture
from wealthy natives and burned alive
some of his followers who intended to de-
sert him. 1t Is believed Pana surrendered
because he feared his own men, and that
he expected 10 be paroled, like other offi-
GERS, and enjoy the fruits Of his brigandage

THE PORTO RICAN BILL.
Uncertain How Many Republicans
Will Vote Against 1t.

1t is understood that there will be no
democratic vote cast for the Porto Rico
tariff bill when it comes up in the House
Both parties expect to have nearly all OF
their members in Washington by Wednes-
day, when the bill is TO be brought up. In
the absence of Messrs. Hopkins and Taw-
ney, the friends of the bill on the ways and
means committee have not been able to
take action, not having a majority present
in favor of the bill, but Mr.. Hopkins has
returned and Mr.. Tawney is expected
1t Is calculated that it will take ten re-
publican votes against the bill to defeat it,
there being no democratic votes for it Sew
eral republicans of the opposition are
known to everybody, and it is claimed that
there will be more than enough to defeat
the bill. This claim. however, is based on
promises which may not be kept. How
many Of those under cover will hold to
their resolution of opposition is a matter
which the vote on the bill will have to de-
termine.
The democrats of the House in their eau
Gus Saturday night adopted resolutions
urging all democratic members absent from
Washington to return al once, and declar-
ing that hereafter democrats will make no
general or permanent pairs, and that all
pairs shall be made in writing and signed
by the members designated by the party
caucus to arrange pairs. The caucus also
adopted a resolution declaring their unal-
terable opposition as party to the Porto
Rican tariff bill and asking every member
to be present to vote against the measure.
