SPIDER TIME IN MANILA.
There Is Great Sport for the Filipino
Boys in Making the In
scots Fight.

When "spider time" arrives the FIJI
lpino boy is happy. He does not know
much about marbles, but when spider
lime arrives, and that is just after the
rainy season begins, he knows that
he is to have great sport. There are
two harmless varieties of spiders that
are green and yellow in color that ma
lure in June. They are as large as the
common black spider SO plentiful in
California. The Filipino boy catches
these and keeps them secure in box.
A small rod the size and length OF q
knitting needle is procured. A spider
is then placed on the rod. Another boy
comes along and he bets cent that
his spider will whip, says the San Jose
(Cal.) Mercury. Then the sport be-
gins.
The boy who is challenged produces
his spider, places it on the rod with
the challenger's. Each spider makes
rush for the other and fierce bat
tie ensues. Sometimes the stronger
of the two will wind web around the
other, fastening him to the rod and
completely putting him out of bust
ness" The spiders sometimes fight for
ten minutes. Nearly every boy has
from eight to ten spiders, and they
bet all the Filipino pennies they can
get on the result of the fight.

TO CRUSH
THE REBELLION.
Plans to Terminate Philippine
Instruction.
Vigorous Campaign to be
Prosecuted by the Army
and Navy.

Combined operations of the army
and navy to crush the Tagal rebellion
are to be begun and prosecuted with
extreme energy, according to the
orders that have been sent from Wash
ington, and Filipinos throughout the
archipelago will be speedily brought
to realize that permanent American
sovereignty is o to be questioned.
simultaneously with the oyerwhelm-
ing vote of the electors throughout
the country this week the period of
enforced military inactivity, due to
the rainy seasoI in the Philippines,
has ended. and With the disappear
ance of tine two chief causes for armed
resistance against the United States,
it is believed by the authorities that
pronounced progress toward pacitica-
ton will be reported to Congress at
its opening session.
The plan of campaign, which is said
to be of a thoroughly comprehensive
character, a prepared by Gen. Nc
Arthur last month after the council of
officers, and has received the unquali-
fed approval of the War Department,
without material modification. 1t in
wolves extensive naval cooperation,
including all the regular w~arships on
the station. as well as the numerOu
small gunboats purchased from the
Spaniards, which are to be distributed
in fiotillas, each with a larger vessel
as a flagship.
The military force under Gen. Mac
Arthur, including the troups coming
back from China this week aggregate
II, 900 officers and men, in addition
to 5000 marines and 5000 naval officers
and enlisted men. The total strength
ashore and afioat exceeds that of last
winter by nearly 1000 men. The in
creased force will permit operations
on a much larger scale than any here
tofore attempted, particularly in dis
tricts which have not yet been under
American control even temporarily.
The results of Tuesdays election
are regarded as sure Of rendering
easier the Taft commission in extend
ing civil administration to the more
civilized provinces and in making it
possible to reduce the garrisOns in
many of the larger cities and towns,
giving more available troops for ex-
petitions into the mountain districts,
where Aguinaldo's guerrillas have
hidden when pursued, and whence they
have made raids on the industrious
natives who are friendly to the Ameri-
cans.

prominent facts which confront Us. in

For just as in spiritual matters there

in the realm of thought supreme.
There is no neutral. no passive state,
but on the contrary. each thought per-
forms an unaiterable task. decreed by
the Divine creative authority, and
