THE LOCATION OF AGUlNALD0.
Belief That He is Hiding in Tagal Quarter
of Manila.

Washington, April 9.--In the mail from
Manila which arrived at the War Depart
ment on Friday there were at least two
communications expressing conviction that
Aguinaldo is hiding in that city. One of
these letters is from United States Secret
Service official, who had found-conclusive
evidence that the Tagal leader had been in
Manila since the rebel armies in Luzon
we're dispersed, and who was satisfied that
as he had not escaped by water he was
probably still concealed in the native part
of the town. The other letter was from
an Army officer attached to headquarters,
who voiced the opinion of all the higher
military authorities that Aguinaldo was
certainly not in any of the outlying dis
trcts OH the island of Luzon.

TAZEWELIA VA, THURSDAY, APRIL H. 1900

Philippines confirm the impression that
Agmnado would naturally seek safety in
the Tagal quarter at Manila. Aguinaldo
is said to be devoted to his wife and
children, who have been living in Manila
for several months, and it is inconceivable
to those who know him that he has not
made frequent visits to his family. 1t is
said that on account of his physical APP
pearance and with his ingenuity he would
incur little or no chance of detection if he
assumed the guise of a native pedler or
ordinary workman.

A war between Japan and Russia, which
is now threatened, may cause the entire
civilized world to become involved.
The theft of the Kentucky Governor
ship may be sustained by Judicial sanction,
but the people will not sanction the
crime.
There are Democrats and Democrats.
We take as examples Bryan and Dewey.
These are only two of the representatives
of the numerous varieties.
The Democrats must think the Ameri.
can masses have very short memories, if
they expect them to forget what resulted
from the last trial of Democratic Admin
istration.
The newspapers are having as hard
time selecting running mate for Mr..
Bryan as they are having in selecting one
for Mr.. Mckinley. 1t may be that Mr..
BRYAN will have two running mates, as
he did in 1896.
Will the Democrats write it in their
platform Porto Rico or Puerto Rico ?
That is a very important question and its
proper solution may result in the elect
ion of MI. Bryan. The Democrats ought
to be very careful how they write tnat
name.
1t is now pretty well settled that the
Virginia Democracy will make the consti'
tutonal convention question party issue.
With the aid Of the Infamous election law

We have seen no suggestion a. to who If to
he the running mate Of Admiral Dewey
in the Presidential contest. We will
name Mrs. Dewey, as she appears to be
he most interested person in the mat
ter. Then the ticket might be strength
ened by announcing that John X. Nc.
Lean is to be Secretary of State.
The Circulation Statement" recently
issued by the Treasury Department shows
that there is more money per capita, more
gold, more silver and a larger total Of
money in circulation in the United States
than at any former period in our history.
The total money in circulation on April lst
was 81, ,O2l, ,274 500. The per capita circu-
lation is $26.l2, calculating the present
population at 77,395, 900.
First came the announcement that Ad-
mral Dewey had changed his politics,
and now comes the announcement that
Mrs. Dewey has changed her religion.
Dewey was Republican until the Presi'
Dental bee got in bis hat, and Mrs. Dewey
was Catholic until she began to aspire
to being lady of the White House. Per-
haps they will soon realize that they have
permitted their ambition to erleap their

strong proof Of the fact that Dom Paul

HANGED BY FUNSTON.
His Disposition of Two Filipinos Excites
Much Comment.

Manila, April 9.-AD interesting topic OF
conversation in army circles Is the lnvestl-
CATION of Brigadier General Frederick Fun
toms execution of two FilipinOs and the
possibility of a court martial resulting
therefrom. The story is that the Filipinos
charged three Macabebe scouts who were
crossing the country near San lsldro, aid
were preparing to kill them, when one OF
the Macabebes escaped and found General
Funston with scouting party near. This
man guided the Americans to the rescue
of his companions, and when the troops
approached the FllipinOs fled, leaving the
Macabebes. Several of the FilipinOs were
shot, and General Funston captured two of
them, took them to the village square and
hanged them without trial as a warning to
the Filipinos. The present method of
warfare and instances of the mutilation of
prisoners have incensed the American
soldiers to such degree that they feel JUS
tilted in making reprisals, which has been
done on several occasions recently.
There is strong feeling among the resi-
dents and friendly Filipinos that the
Chinese general, Pana, who, as announced
March 81, surrendered to Brigadier Gener-
al Kobbe, after terrorizlng the province of
Panay, should be severely punished. 1t
is pointed out that his career has been
more that of brigand than a soldier, as
he looted and extorted money by torture
from wealthy natives and burned alive
some of his followers who intended to de-
sert him. 1t is believed Pana surrendered
because he feared bis own men, and that
be expected to be paroled like other
officers, and enjoy the fruits of his brig
Nandage.

interior, Ottawa, Canada-Sir: Think
ing that my experience in Manitoba
might be both useful and interesting
70 my fellow-countrymen In the United
9tales VINO may be looking to Mani
toba and the northwest with the in
tention of settling there, have much
pleasure in stating that through in
formation received from Mr.. w. F..
McCreary, immigration commissioner
at winnipeg, l was induced to visit
Manltoba in February, 1898. When /
called upon Mr.. McCreary he spared no
pains to give me all the information.
etc, In his possession, the result of
Wnlch was that l came here with a.
letter of introduction from him to the
secretary OF the Virden Board of
Iraoe. That gentleman provided me
WIN a competent land guide, and,
although there was considerable snow
on the ground, l had no difficulty In
selecting three homesteads for myself
aAd sons. Having made the necessary
homestead entries at the land office in
brandon, l returned to my home in
Lyon county, Minnesota, and came back
mere In May following, accompanied
oy one OF my boys, bringing with us
Two teams of horses, implements, etc.
Our hrst work was to erect a tempo
rary shanty and stable, after which
we broke and leveled seventy-flve
acres and put up thirty tons of hay.
l went back to Minnesota about July
IO' leaving my son here. I returned
In october, bringing my family with
me. I found that the land we had
acquired was Of good quality, being
strong clay loan with clay subsoil.
Last spring l sowed 100 acres In wheat
and nifty acres in oats and barley.
(SeVenty-five acres of this grain was
sowed on "go-back" plowed last
spring.) My crop was thrashed in
October, the result being over 2,700
bushels of grain in all. Wheat aver
aged fifteen bushels per acre and
graded No. hard, but that which was
sown on land other than sod ego
back'O went twenty four and one-half
bushels per acre.
To say that am we'll pleased with
the result of my first years farming
operations in Manitoba does not ade-
quately express my feelings, and l
have no hesitation in advising those
who are living in districts where land
is high in price to come out here, IL
they are willing to do a fair amount
Of work. l am ten miles from Virden,
which is good market town, and nine
miles from Hargrave, where there are
two elevators. This summer / erected
a dwelling house of native stone and
bought half-section of land adjoin-
ing our homesteads, for which l paid
a very moderate price. There are still
some homesteads in this district, and
land of fine quality can be purchased
from the Canadian Pacific Railway
company at $3.50 per acre on liberal
terms. Good water is generally found
at depth Of from fifteen to twenty
feet. l have 175 acres ready for crop
next year.
The cost of living here is about the
same as in southern Minnesota. Some
commodities are higher and others
lower in price, but the average is
about the same. l remain, your obe-
dent servant. (Signed.)

bune. The popularity CT the suit case
is not fashionable fad, but an i'm
provement on old methods of packing
and carrying articles of wearing an
parel, and had its origin, according In
a story told by manufacturer. with a
New York commercial traveller. The
young man in question had been "o1.
the road" for several years, and had
made many friends outside of the buv
ers' offices, and he received many in
vitations of a social nature while he
was on his long trips. He found if
necessary to carry evening clothes on
his 'hustling" tours, and in order to
reduce the wear and tear to a mini
mum had case built in which he
packed his purple and fine linen, and
this he carried in one of his large
sample trunks. The case was seen by
other drummers and admired for its
good shape and compactness; similar
cases were ordered, and presently a
trunk manufacturer who knew a good
thing when he saw it had the cases for
sale. In less than a year the suit case
was known all over the country. In its
early stages it was considered a dud-
ish style, but the prejudice wore off
when its convenience was ascertained,
and it is now in general use at prices
ranging from $1.50 to SIS, while the
average price is about SIS. The low
priced article is wooden box COW
the better case has a steel frame and
is covered with leather Women were
not slow to recognize the advantages
of suit case over the old-time valise,
and cases slightly lighter in weight
than the regular article are sold in
large quantities to women. Besides
its advantages as a packing case the
suit case is looked upon as highly
respectable" and "genteel' and far
ahead in that respect of the old-time
valise, which is liable to show by col
lapsed sides poor and empty condi-
tiOn which the stiff sides of the case
conceal. The suit case stained and
slightly scratched and decorated with
European hotel pastors is one of the
latest improvements on the original
style. These cases are sold in three
sizes, like the plain article, but the
prices usually about 25 per cent higher.
