Minor engagements Are Reported
Charge Against Gen. Funston
UnsustaIned,-

Manila, May 2S.-scouting, small en-
gagements and the capture of arms
and prisoners continue daily in north
ern Luzon. Last weeks operations by
the Ninth, Twelfth, Thirty-third, Thir-
ty-fourth and Thirty-sixth regiments
resulted in the killing of 46 of the enc
my, the taking of $50 prisoners and the
capture of 800 rifles and a quantity of
+ ammunition.
Peace reigns and no trouble is ex-
Pected in Manila, although the city is
crowded with people from the PROV
inces who are leaving the unprotected
hamlets in order to avoid the conscrip-
ton which the insurgent leaders are
enforcing, as well as robbery and out
RACES at the hands of rowing insurgents
and bandits.
The investigation of the charge
against Brig. Gen. Frederick Funston
OF having summarily executed two ma
tives in the province of Zambales has
resulted in a discontinuance of the pro-
ceedings. 1t developed the fact that
Gen. Funston caught the natives in the
act of numbering bound Maccabebe
scouts, his action, in view of the cir
cumstances, being regarded as justi-
fable.

W ON BRYAN TICKET.
Would Accept a Nomination
for Vice President.

Chicago, May 2s.-The Iimes-Her-
AIDS Washington special says: Adj
miral Dewey is willing to run for vice
president on the democratic ticket.
Within a short time he is expected to
signify his Willingness to accept that
nomination. This is the statement
made by one of the admlral's friends
who spent two hours with Mr.. and
Mrs. Dewey at Beauvoir. The visitor
found the admiral quite apathetic
about his candidacy for the presi-
dency. He displayed only a languid
interest in that, and appeared finally
to have reached the conclusion that he
cannot be nominated for first place.
But when his caller said he had heard
a number of prominent democrats say
the best man to nominate for vice
president at Kansas City was the hero
of Manila bay Admiral Dewey bright
ened up and asked If it was really so.
He was told that at a dinner of demo-
cratic representatives at the house of
Mr.. Newlands, recently, a straw vote
was taken on choice Of candidates for
the vice presidency. Mr.. Lowne had
three votes, Mr.. Mcclellan two, Adj
miral Dewey five and others scatter
ing.
"That is good" exclaimed the adj
miral, eagerly. 81 had more votes
than anyone else, didn't II"
Although the admiral did not say
he would ANNOUNCE himself as a candi-
date for the vice presidency, tits the
belief Of his friend that he win permit
the leaders of the party to know they
may have him if they want TO put him
on the ticket.

SCHOOL LIBRARIES.
The New Law is Very Sweeping In its
Provisions.

According to the Burlington Hawk
eye the school library bill passed by
the Iowa Legislature is more general
in its scope than was first supposed.
1t is made mandatory upon country
school districts to set aside annually
from 5 to I5 cents for each child of
school age in the district for the pur-
pose of purchasing books for the
library. While the school is in ses-
sion the library is to be kept in the
school house, but during vacation it
is to be placed in the hands of some
person selected by the board, which
makes it in effect a circulating libr-
airy, and the bill states that the
books may be loaned to others than
school children. 1t has been suggest
ed that the country stores may be
used as headquarters in vacation,
and the proprietors of these estab-
lishments r eager to grant the ac-
commodation because of the trade
the library would bring. The law
limits the purchase of books to a list
to be selected by the State Board of
Educational Examiners.
