HANGED TWO FILIPINOs.
Reported Summary Action of Genera
 F'1lnStOu

Reported Summary Action of General
 Funston.
 Manila, April g, S:20 p. m.-An inter- esting topic of conversation in army circles is the investigati ton of Brigadier General Frederick Funstons execution of two Filipinos, and the possibility of court martial resulting therefrom.
 The story is that the Filipinos cap tured three Macabebe scouts who were crossing the country near San Isidro and were preparing to kill them when one of the Macabebea escaped and found General Funston with a scouting party near. This man guided the Americans to the rescue of his com panions and when the troops approach cd the F'ilipinos fled leaving the Maca- bebes. Several of the Filipinos were shot and General Funston captured two of them, took them to the village square and hanged them without trial as warning to the F'ilipinos.
 The present method of warfare and instances of the mutilation of prisoners have incensed the American soldiers to such degree that they feel Justified in making reprisale, which had been done on several occasions lately.

THE ENFIELD BANK FAILURE.
Statement of It's Affairs Filed by the
 Referee.

Statement of It's Affairs Filed by the
 Referee.
 Hartford, April 9.-The creditors of R. D. & Robert E. Spencer, the private bankers of Enfield, who failed a few weeks ago, will find little consolation in the statement of the affairs of the firm, which has been filed with Referee Kel- logg by Henry A. Alden, Andrew Cor don and Seth Alden, who were appoint ed appraisers of the estate by the United States referee in bankruptcy
 The account shows that about all of the assets of the firm have been hy- pothecated for indebtedness far in ex- cess of their value and with claims ag- gregating $75 ,00O it is doubtful if the assets will realize one per cent. on the claims. A statement was also filed showing the assets of the private bank conducted by Robert E. Spencer in Hazardville to be but $130, and the claims against it are in the neighbor- hood of $7,500.
 When the institution went up Robert E. Spencer told the depositors that the assets were sufficient to pay dollar for dollar on all claims. Spencer is now at the county jail and will be tried in the June term of the criminal court for embezzlement and forgery.

The total value of his pecula- tions from the company amounts to over $150OO According to his confess sion Potter had intended to take the goods which he had stolen and send them south, where he proposed to start a cutlery factory and start in business for himself He had stored the articles in his barn, where they were found. Potter might have been able to carry out his purpose had he not been appre- hended as he was in the act of sending a case by freight to his new business location. The company did not bring criminal proceedings, but took back the stolen stock and advised Potter to leave town. He has moved with his wife to parts unknown.

ISSUED TO CATHOLIC CHURCHES
Bishop Tierneys Letter Concerning
 Easter Collection.

Bishop Tierney's Letter Concerning Easter Collection. Bishop Tierney has issued to all the pastors of Catholic churches in this diocese the following letter relating to the usual Easter collection for diocesan purposes:
 Episcopal Residence,
 Hartford Conn, April 1, 1900. Rev. Dear Sir:
 You are hereby reminded that the an- nual Easter collection for the support of ecclesiastical students, and the gen. eral wants of the diocese, will be taken up in all the churches and at all the masses, on Easter Sunday, April 15.
 The primary object of this collection is to provide means for the education of candidates for the sanctuary. At the present time, an unusually large number are preparing themselves for the work of the sacred ministry in the different seminaries of the United States, Canada, France, Belgium, Ger many and Rome The maintenance and progress of religion are essentially bound up with the supply of jealous and devoted clergy. The Easter collec- tion is the only means available at pres ent to meet this constant want.
 In addition, there are numerous and pressing calls, whose object is general and not confined to any particular To- cality. They fall as burden on the ordinary of the diocese, because there ;.J I,, 4a
 Moreover, three years ago we opened in the most eligible part of Hartford a diocesan seminary, where our young levites received their preparatory train ing for the priesthood. The seminary itself has already given full assurance of it's future success and special bene- fit to the church in this diocese. But, as it's present building is much too small for our purpose, we intend to erect this year new and more spacious one.
 Now you are well aware that we have no other recourse to raise the requi- site means for so worthy an undertak- ing than to appeal to the zeal and gen eroslty of the faithful; and, therefore, we now do so with a firm trust that the same spirit continues to animate them that has distinguished them in the past.
 Praying God to bless you and all who cooperate with you in this good work, remain, with sincere affection, yours very faithfully in Christ

 Bishop of Hartford. flames p D0nnVan ID D.

THE CAMPUS FENCES,

The wire fence erected about the Yale campus about two years ago after the campus was seeded reused considera ble adverse criticism among undergradu- ates at the time. The Yale News ed itorial had the following to say about the matter yesterday:
 ''It is about time to remove the fences which were temporarily put up to pro- tect the grass plots on the campus. If it is the intention to have the grass plots enclosed permanently, certain ly more suitable and pleasing enclos- ures should be constructed. It is not right, though, to have the campus fenced off,

Annual Session Will be Held Here To-
 morrow.
 At the annual session of the Connec- lieut. grand lodge of the New England Order of Protection, which will be held in this city tomorrow, resolutions to the effect that the delegates to the grand lodge shall be elected by direct vote of the subordinate lodges will be brought up. As it is now, all past war dens are entitled to vote in that grand lodge and are members of that body for life. It is deemed just that this law be abolished and that a delegate be elected to each session of the grand lodge by di- rect vote. It is argued that it is taxa tion without representation, since the lodge which has the largest number of past wardens has the greatest voice, and some lodges are not represented at all The matter will be brought before the grand session by Beacon lodge of New Haven.

A Wonderful
 Soap Sale.

Do you suppose that with department full of new soaps and more coming in all the time, we'd think of taking another fifteen thousand cakes, except at very small price? And could we hope to sell so many to you, without giving you at least as much of bargain as we got our- selves? What folly then to load ourselves up with more soaps, and give up to them, at this Easter season, the main bargain table-the place of hon. off the soaps were not such wonderful values, as to almost compel you to buy.
 Ifyou're not in the shopping mood it's novel show anyway, worth coming great ways to see.
 First days selling has been nothing short of marvellous.
