"FIGHTING JOE'S" PLUCKY SON rom the Chicago Chronicle.


 San Francisco, September "A private letter from Manila says: General Wheel CTS son, Major Wheeler, United States Volunteers, has shown himself to be true son of his father. In a fight the other day he led his troops against force of in surgents, who were strongly intrenched on top of hill and successfully defeated them, having one man killed and an officer and three men wounded. The hill was so steep that the men had to climb up by the aid of their hands, while the wounded roll ed to the foot of the hill when hit.

 Yesterday was an absolutely perfect early Autumn day; and was delightful to them as didn't have to work all Saturday night and sleep all Sunday, as the man said of drink.
 Colonel Robert C. Jelks tells of that man. He sat in country store by the fire one cold rainy day, forlorn in his Iank dark misery, and pale as death. His face was between his hands and he looked at the fire in utter dejeetion. Presently two men approached the water pail near the miser- able man, one of them carrying a bottle of whiskey. At sight O. that elixir the man raised up and said in clear but hopeless voice:
 Hits a mighty fine day for to take a drink to them as is got it"
 He got one.

SARAPES AS BEDSPREADS
From the Mexican Herald.

From the MeXlcan Herald.
 The Mexican embassy at Washington has informed the Department of Foreign Re- lations, and the latter the Department of Finance, that Mexican sarapes will hence. forth be considered by the customs author ities of the United States as woolen bed spreads, and they will be assessed for duty accordingly. This ruling is based on the fact that though the sarape is used as a piece of clothing during the day, it is used as a bed cover at night and ought to- be classified as such Yet the fact remains that that is not the principal use of the sarape.
