CHARGE OF TWELVE MEN.
Brave Feat of American Scouts Un-
dex Gen. Lswton in fhe
Philippines

A medal of honor-the highest corn
pLment which can be given 10 an
American soldier-has been recon-
mended for presentation to each of
the ten surviving members of band
of 10 scouts who performed brave
feat near San Miguel de Mayume ORR,
in the Philippines. on May 10, 1899,
says Youths Companion.
These scouts were under the lead of
been a famous scout on the western
plains in America, and whom Gen.
Lawton made his chief of scouts in
the San Ysidro campaign this year.
On the day mentioned, Gen. Lawton
was advancing on San Miguel. a
small body of Oregon volunteers came
suddenly upon the enemy. drawn up
in an advantageous position in front
of San Miguel, the right flank resting
on stream, the left on an elevation
made secure by dense thicket,
1t was afterward ascertained that
the Filipino force in this position
numbered about 600 men.
Without waiting for the reinforcing
battalion to support them, or to be in
a position to do so, this squad of ten
scouts, led by Mr.. Young and by
Private James Harrington, of the Ore
gons, an old frontiersman-12 men in
all-charged the enemy's line, about
$50 yards distant.
The line fired, then wavered, and
then completely gave way, to be fol-
lowed up by the reinforcing battalion,
and driven from the city and environs
of San Miguel, a place of greet i'm
portance.
Young and Harrington, while shout
ing and cheering and leading the men
up, were shot and killed.

MUD HEN EGGS FOR CHICAGO.
Industry But little Known a Money
Producer for Hunters of
Bureau County.

Green river "hen fruit" will soon be-
gin to make its appearance in Chicago.
This is an Illinois product of which Chi
cagoans partake without knowing
what they are eating. Green river hen
fruit" is the egg of mud hen. Mud
hen is the common name of the Ameri-
can coot, or Virginian rail, says Chi
cago paper.
During the month of May is the busy
season of the mud hen; likewise of the
individuals who make living robbing
her nest. The hens, in large numbers,
frequent the marshes of the Green and
Illinois rivers They nest in swarms,
on punches of drift, and here they are
easily found by the egg hunters, who
find ready market in Chicago for all
of their offerings. A Green river
hunter last year gathered 1000 dozen
eggs in three weeks, clearing $50 for
his labor. The price last year Melted
six cents dozen.
Nearly all of the eggs are taken in
Bureau county. They are coated in the
same manner as the product of the
barnyard fowl, and are sold to restaur-
ant men and confectioners. 1t is said
to be an easy matter for an egg hunter
acquainted with the haunts and habits
of the mud hen to take from 500 to 500
dozen eggs in a single season.

The National Chrysanthemum So

flower which it has taken under it's

such patient and ingenious care, has

over a century. The first time it was

early patrons could have dropped in at
the exhibition last week and seen what
his favorites had attained to! Surely
he would have thought himself trans

MAN WITH THE DRUM.
He lis the Most Necessary and Ina
portant Parsonage I'm "a Street
Procession.

The man with the drum is a very i'm
portant individual these days of street
professions. He keeps things moving
and men from tagging behind quick
step time and is altogether thorough
ly Indispensable person in a parade
The band only plays at intervals, but
the drum beats steadily on, says the
Chicago Chronicle.
Victory in battle is often due to the
man with the drum, but he sounds the
summons to march on and the inspira-
ton of the tap fires the spirit and in
flames the soul and sets the heyday in
the blood rioting holly with no thought
or power to attend the decision of the
Judgment.
The man with the drums at the Audi
forum is always the most interesting
character in the ensemble of the or
chestra. High in the center he stands
among his fellows and his arms fly this
way and that among the kettledrums
and his flexible wrists and fingers are
in perpetual motion, keeping the pad
ded drumsticks going. In some parts
of the Wagner music he would sound
the alarm of his beat with a savage sat-
isfaction, and in vorspiel to the Meister-
singer his famous bombardment never
failed to bring smile of mirthful en-
joyment to the generally impressive
countenance of the leader of the or
chestra.

The whole Saranac community was
on the qui vive, says w. j. Stillman
in Atlantic, not to see Emerson or
Lowell, of whom they knew nothing,
but Agassiz, who had become famous
in the commonplace world through
having refused, not long before, an
offer from the emperor of the French
of the keepership of the Jardin des
Plantes and senatorship, if he would
come to Paris and live. Such an in
credible and disinterested love for
America and science in our hemis-
phere had lifted Agassiz into an ele-
walton of popularity which was be-
yond all scientific or political dignity,
and the selectmen of the town APP
pointed a deputation to welcome him
and his friends to the region. A re-
ception was accorded, and they came,
having taken care to provide them
selves with an engraved portrait of
the scientist, to guard against
PRESERVATION and waste of their re-
spects. The head of the deputation,
after having carefully compared Agas-
siz to the engraving, turned gravely
to his followers and said: Yes, it's
him." and they proceeded with the
same gravity to shake hands in their
order, ignoring all the other lumin-
aries

GO OUT OF TOWN DEWEY DAY.
Residents of Chicago who Passed
Anniversary of the Manila
Battle Playing Golf.

There were some people in Chicago
on Dewey day as the appearance of
the streets and buildings testified,
but there were others as well who
were not in Chicago, but who bied
themselves away on an early train
TO the nearest golf ground and spent
the holiday propelling the little round
gutta percha implement across green
fields and pastures new, says the
Chronicle. The lull of the country
was particularly gratifying when con-
trasted with the jar and hustle and
excitement of the celebration in town.
and, while the country idler wanted
to cheer for Dewey, he wanted still
more to enjoy the delights of holi-
day close to natures heart when
spring is in the air.
SO he gave little cheer for Dewey.
every time he drove a ball and he
challenged his opponent to come on
in the immortal words of the immor-

battle of Manila in his heart and left

The credit for saving the life of the

TO NJ. Louis Won Mol, young Partisan

ahghted from the train coming from
Liege, which reaches Brussels at five
o'clock, when heard that the prince of
Wales was in the station, and went
into the carriage to see his royal high
ness and bow to him. I saw a servant
alight from the carriage; then, as the
train was starting, perceived young
man springing upon the footboard and
holding something in his hand. I at
first thought that it was the servant
returning; but all at once there came
the report of a firearm. sprang upon
the malefactor, caught him with one
hand by the throat, and with the other
disarmed him. We rolled upon the
ground. AS picked myself up an in
dividual tried to seize the revolver I
held-in order to claim the honor of
having apprehended Sipido; and an al
tercation then ensued, with the result
that the police came up, and, on see
ing that L held the revolver and that
my hand was covered with blood from

once arrested me. Fortunately, the
confusion did not last long, but in the
course of it was brutally ill-treated
