nArTERs FEARFuLLY TANGLED.
An Army Officer Tells of Conditions
in the Philippines.

from Washington says:
An officer in the regular army,
who has been stationed in the city
of San Francisco since the out
break of the hostilities in the Phil
ippines and who has been here for
some time, has been talking of the
conditions as they exist over there.
He has his information direct
from officers of the regular army
who are returning or from letters
received from friends in the regu-
lar army there. He says matters
are in fearful tangle in the
islands and that they are daily
growing worse. He corroborates
the story that came several days
ago by cablegram, from Manila,
that 300 officers of the volunteer
army have rendered their resigna-
tions and that the same had been
held up by Gen. Otis contrary to
army regulations. He says that
the men of the army are almost
ready to openly mutiny because
they are tired of the service and
want to come home. His reyela-
Itions are a corrorboration of every
thing that has lately appeared IN
the Post from the dispatches and
letters from there, also the letters
lately printed in The Post written
to Mr.. Joe Lee Jamison, from the
Philippines.
The officer furthermore says the
troops over there are improperly
equipped and that they have never
been properly supplied with trans
portation facilities for necessary
commissary and quartermaster
stores and that they have been
compelled to remain at their base
of supplies and could not pene-
trate lthe island and capture the
insurrectionists that lying and
; misleading reports of the number
of FilipinOs killed by our soldiers
have been sent ont and that they
have probably killed as man!

fighters; that there is pOlitlca
scheme on foot to begin ordering
the soldiers home from there abOu

Forgotten,


Spencer b. Rumsey, who was super
intendent of the Low Grade Division of
A. V. R'y up until August 1st, serving
thirteen years In that capacity, was
given very pleasant surprise last
Thursday evening by the employees Of
the Low Grade Division. An effort
was made to get Mr.. Rumsey away
from home for short time in the even
ing, but that failed and the next best
thing to do was to have the paymaster,
who was In town that evening, and sew
eral employees call on Mr.. Rumsey, get
him into the library and have some
music. while . or 30 other employees Of
the road went into the dining room at
side entrance, carrying handsome
and costly rolled top, Quartered oak
writing desk with them. Mr.. Rumsey
was requested to step into the dining
room on some pretext and the surprise
was as complete as II he had gone up
town.
Assistant Trainmaster ID. NJ. Duns-
more, in behalf OF the employees of the
road, presented the writing desk to Mr..
Rumsey Mr.. Rumsey thanked the
employees for the handsome gift and
the hearty and fraternal spirit in which
IL was given.
Mrs. Rumsey. who bad been taken
into confidence several days before the
present was given, was enjoying the
surprise on her husband immensely,
when w. S. Stone said he had few
remarks TO make and when he got
through with his presentation speech,
Mrs. Rumsey was as much surprised as
her husband had been, for she was pre-
sented with rose aud chrysanthemum
style cut glass water set and silver
tray, with her name inscribed on
tray and when presented by employees
of Low Grade Division.
There was a silver plate on the writ
ing desk on which was engraved the
following: presented to S. b. Rumsey
by employees of the Allegheny Valley,
Low Grade Division"
Most all, il not all, the employees OF
the Low Grade contributed towards
getting the presents, no one subscrip
tion amounted to over 81

Idleness Not Necessary.

A notice in the postoffice yesterday
morning to the effect that there was an
opening at the silk mill for an exper-
fenced weaver and several learners,
brought to our mind the fact that the
silk mill has proven to be good indus
try for Reynoldsville. 1t is true that
most Of the employees are young people,
yet the mill has given employment, at
good wages, to many boys, girls and
young women who could not be earning
money were it not for the silk mill. Over
three hundred are now employed at the
mill and yet there is room for more.
There is no excuse for young people to
be idle in Reynoldsville and vicinity II
they want to work. The wages are not
large for beginners, on account of the
loss the firm sustains in the destruction
of material while learning, but many of
those who have thoroughly learned the
work are now making good wages. 1t
is much more honorable for young
people to earn their own living than 1t
is to depend upon the parents. II you
are out of employment and want to earn
money, make application at the silk
mill and there is no doubt but that you
will secure position. Try it.
