Denver, Col, Aug. 13.-Nebraska,
Kansas, Iowa, the Dakotas, Colorado,
Wyoming, Utah, Oregon and other
western states are represented at the
reunion of veterans of the Philippine
campaign which opened in this city,
and will continue for three days. Two
years ago these soldiers were wading
the Rio Cingalon river, in the orient,
waist deep, carrying the old flag and
facing storm of lead from ten miles
of Spanish intrenchments before
Manila. They will never forget the
occasion, and the reunion has been
called for the purpose of keeping
comrades shoulder to shoulder and
effecting an organization whereby
their deeds may be preserved in his
tory. The idea originated with Gen.
Irving Hale, and to his efforts is due
the success of this first annual re-
union. Several hundred badges were
issued to the delegations as they ar
rived during the forenoon. A meet
ing was held in the afternoon at
which steps were taken for the or
ganization of the Society of the Army
of the Philippines. At night there was
a public meeting. The feature of
Tuesdays exercises will be a parade
in which the local members of the
Grand Army of the Republic will have
the position of honor. Various en-
tertainments will be given by citizens
in honor of the visiting veterans, and
on Wednesday they will be taken on
excursions to mountain resorts and
noted mining camDS

THE DESERTED HENS.

Flatbush, whose beautiful homes

that does not belong to the fedora
ton, has no rules, no bylaws, no par
liamentary formaGties, no initiation
fee, no dues-nothing, in fact, that
characterizes other clubs to which
women having leisure and lovely
homes belong, says Harper's Bazaar.
The Deserted Hens is the somewhat
ignominious title used to designate
the organization. The club in its in
ception was simply an eXpedient to
meet the eXigencies of loneliness,
when on Saturday nights the male
heads of half dozen families deserted

THREE DAYS AT YANG TsUN.
The Allies Believed to Have Re
sumed the Advance to PekIn.

W
London, Aug. 13.-As the allies
were TO rest three days at Yang Tsun,
it is supposed that further advance
was begun August 10, but no word has
come through from Yang Tsun since
August s, on which date the japanese
commander, in a message to Toxic,
said 10000 Chinese were confronting
the allies. The japanese losses at
Peit-Sang, August 6, were 300 killed
and wounded. The Chinese left 200
dead on the field.
The object of Chinese diplomacy, as
appears from the great efforts being
made in London and at the continent
tai capitals, is to induce the powers to
suspend the march of the relief eX-
petition; but it has been without sue
cess in the case of any government.
