IN the Philippine Islands.

Under date of December 25th the Pen
nell boys write home that they are
enjoying themselves in the Philippine
campaign, and have plenty to eat most
of the time The country is not as hot
as they had expected and they have
suffered no great inconvenience on ac
count of rains For Christmas dinner
they had chicken, duck and mutton
They are stationed at a point sever
miles from where General Lawton fell
in battle. They remained at Manila
only one day and were hustled into the
interior country. The boys say the ami

monkeys, water buffalo, wild dogs and
ponies. There are plenty of oranges
bananas, cocoanuts etc. The water
supply is hauled from springs and is al
boiled before using. The boys complain
that things are too monotonous and they
are aching for fight.

About a City Hall and Library.

The initial step in the movement for a
city hall was taken by the council at its
last meeting, when an ordinance was
introduced providing for bonding the
municipality for $4,000 for that pur-
pose The next step will be the passage
of the ordinance by the council, then
submitted TO the people at the next char.
ter election for their approval or rejec-
ton. AS a citizen taxpayer the editor
of the CENSOR favors the scheme under
certain conditions. Those conditions are
that substantial imposing structure,
suitable for all time, be built, to be ar
ranged for council rooms, library, fire
department, and perhaps city lookup.
Location, too, should have influence in
determining the matter. Such public
building should be located, if at all,
where it will best serve the greatest
number, and at the same time help to
improve the business portion of the city.
A general discussion of the proposition
will follow. we have no doubt. The
official ordinance is published in this
paper TO-DAY.

Hicks Weather for February

Of February weather, Professor Hicks
says: ''Wintry weather will moderate

and ice gorges, turning to heavy sleet in

these disturbances from the 18th to the
