Margaret Sheppard condeseended the
parsonage. The reporter still looked mys-

is exposing the sinfulness of the Roman

there was a large band of Ladrones in

raised the cry, Americana, when there
was a stampede complete.
The Iadrones fled In every direction,
leaving everything, all but seven escap-

It was found that the surprised natives
had been in such hurry to get away thas
they fed leaving even their rifles bahird
them thirty of which We're found by the
boys of G. company.
There were Spriugfields, Winchester ami

Ten boxes of ammunition, about 200
rounds, were also captured, and one large
brass cannon. 80
Seven of the band were captured one

The two Spapiards are more talkative

there are numerous bands of Ladrones

ten to fifty and carrying on a guerrilla

DEWEY WILL Be INVITED
HERO OF MANILA WILL BE
ASKED TO VISIT THE
CITY
COUNCIL JOINS IN REQUEST
VIII Act in Conjunction With the
Commercial Club in Sending
an Invitation to the
Admiral.

According to the kilograms from Wash
ington Admiral Dewey is expected TO Wis
1t ST. Paul during his trip to the North
west, which is scheduled for June. With
a view to securing the presence of the
admiral in st. Paul, Mayor Kiefer some
weeks ago called the attention of the
council and commercial bodies to the adj
Visibility of extending formal invita-
ton to Admiral and Mrs. Dewey to visit
the city
The common council and the Com
mercial club agreed with Mayor Kiefer
that an invitation should be extended
and it was so ordered.
Mayor Kiefer was somewhat annoyed
yesterday when Glob reporter in
quired as to when the formal invitation
on behalf of the city was to be forward
ed to Admiral Dewey.
81 have been trying to get the invita-
ton ready to send to Admiral Dewey for
the past month, but as yet have not sue
ceeded. I notified the council and re-
quested the invitation be extended the
first week In March Both branches of
the council agreed with me that this
would be advisable, and the officers of the
Commercial club also advised me that
they would join with the city in ex
tending the invitation. The letter I
forwarded to the council was sent to the
corporation attorneys Office with in
structions or the understanding that a
formal resolution should be drafted
This action was taken about a month
ago and last Saturday the. resolution
was delivered to me. I at once COM
municated with the officers of the Com
mercial club and Secretary Slime came
over and took with him the resolution,
promising that the club would have the
invitation on behalf of the city as we'll
as that on behalf of the club engrossed
together, and in this form the Invitation
would be forwarded to the admiral"
Further than this Mayor Kiefer said
he did not know what had been done,
but he was of the opinion that imme-
date action should be taken in order to
get the invitation in the hands of the
admiral before he had arranged his West
ern trip and left St. Paul off his list
Secretary Slime of the Commercial club,
seen last evening, said the club and its
officers had been so busy with the Sigs-
bee reception that the invitation to Adj
niral Dewey had been somewhat lost
sight of.
However he added, the matter
will be taken up today or tomorrow and
the invitation will be ready for forward
ing within a day or two

MUSIC WAS DRAMATIC
RENDITION BY THE VESTED CHOIR
WAS BEAUTIFUL.

The vested choir of st. Paul's gave the
Passion music last night for the first
time at the church, Ninth and Olive
streets. The arrangement Of the serv-
ice by Alfred Gaul was used and the rem
dition was exceptionally beautiful The
full choir, assisted by several soloists,
was under the direction of the organist,
Thomas Yapp;e and the organ music was
supplemented with piano accompan1-
ment by Mrs. S.sJ Collins.
Assisting the choir We're J. Shepard and
c. j. Collins,3 tenor soloists, George Grant
and Andrews MeIlvany, second tenors ;
Walter NorustroEn and Fred Southall,
first bass; j Fl. Boyd, basso. The Pas
sion music was. arranged in six scenes,
the first under the subject. "The Traitor
at the II able, a. portrayed of JudasiSthe
second, Peter denial at the Temple"
the third, .s11he5 Unjust Condemnation"
and Others representing the mockery on
Calvary, the shadow of death and holy
sepulcher.
In many OF. the scenes the music was
extremely dramatic and was we'll render
ed. The choir Hacked somewhat in vol
ume and power at times, but this defect
was amply severed by the excellent
training and diseipIne of e@erganiza-
tion.z Waiter No4sdstrom and j. Boyd
