DRINKS AT THE PRINCES BAR.
From The London News.

From The London News.
The Prince Of Wales adopted the idea of re-
StrCting drinks at the club for workingmen at
Sandringham some years ago. so that there is a
precedent for the Rev. j. L. N BardSley'S club
at INVERSION. When the Prince opened his insti-
tute-fOr there is public house in Sandring-
ham-he decided that the members should be
allowed to have but pint of beer, in order
that the labOrers on the estate should not spend
too much on liquor. After a time. however, the
Prince removed the restriction, but the members
still observe, to all practical purposes the zone
pint per night rule they know it is the wish
of the Prince that they should do so, in spite of
the fact that he had withdrawn the rule in order
to give the men more liberty. There is also a
public house at Bishopsgate. where the drinks
are restricted 20 one every half hour.

CAMPAIGN IN PHILIPPINES.
General Macarthur Tells of the Fac.
tors of Renewed Activity.

Manila, Nov. 22.-General Macarthur
was asked yesterday whether the result
of the presidential election in the United
states was in any way responsible for
the orders to push operations against the
Eilipinos. He replied that the result of
the election was merely coincident with
other features Of the situation. He
added that the return of the soldiers and
marines from China, with the recruits
arrived recently, would increase the
number of troops to 10000 men. The en-
larSement of the forces, the ending OF
the rainy season, better roads, improved
transportation and the desire to make
the most efficient use of the volunteers
before their term of service expires in
June, are all cOntributory to the most
active campaign. Concerning the re-
placing or 30, 900 volunteers, o,nerei ho--
Arthur said he favors the establishment
of standing army Of $1,000 men, and
authorizing the president to increase
It to 100, 600 men.

the force in General YOung's district to
nearly 1000 men; that heavy reinforce
