In the latter part Of May another group
Of representatives came from the insurgent
leader. The whole matter was fully dis
cussed with them and promise Of acceptance
seemed near at hand. They assured our
commissioners they would return after con-
sulting with their leader, but they never did.
AS result Of the views expressed by the
nrst Tagalog representative favorable to the
plan of the commission, It appears that he
was, by military order of the insurgent
leader, stripped of his shoulder straps, dis
missed from the army and sentenced to
twelve years Imprisonment.
The views Of the commission are best set
forth In their own words:

SMALLPOX IN VIRGINIA.

There are several hundred cases o.
smallpox scattered over the State Of
Virginia, judging by the reports in the
local weekly papers and the telegraph
news to the city daihss.
This announcement if made decade
or SO ago would have crested panic
and caused nervous people to fly hs'tsr-
SHELTER from the State. But tie disease
has been robbed OF much OF its terrors
by skillful medical science, and the
frequency Ct its occurrence in recent
years has alss caused many people to
look upon it ~ an annual late winter
and spring disssss--something like the
annual visitation of measles.
But for the slight Disagreement and
small extra expenSs, 1t is safe to say
that mild type of small pOx-cr vari-
lOid, which it really is-would receive
no moro notice than the thousand other
ills TO which humanity is heir. There
il no more fatality attached to it than
to any other of our multitude of
diseases.
