Force OF Filipino Insurgents, Who We're
Strongly EntreBched.

Manila, Sept. 4.-Gen. Joseph Wheel
er's son, Maj. 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

and successfully defeated them. The
hill was so steep that the men had
to climb up by the aid of their hands,
while the wounded rolled to the foot
of the hill when hit. The Americans
got within 80 yards of the insurgents
before the Filipinos retreated. All
of the men acted bravely. Gen. Mac
Arthur conrplimented them in his Of
fetal report of the fight.

There need be no doubt Of the productive
ness of these lands. They have been tried
in every quarter with result that has pro-
duced 20 TO 80 bushels Of wheat, and 40 to
so bushels of corn per acre. These crops
have been raised by farmers living on Indi-
an lands. The valleys of the Washita, of
Cache creek, Beaver, and other streams are
more or less cultivated every year, and al
Says give good returns. The uplands are
productive of all cereals, and afford the fin

FOR THE HOSPITAL
Fund Swelled by Gleason's Ben
eft Entertainments.

The horse show of Prof. Gleason
has swelled the treasury of the Os-
kaloosa hospital by the sum of $50.
That was the amount of cash turned
over to the committee as the result
of the two evenings entertainments.
This is another drop in the bucket
that will help in making the hospital
a reality in the near future. The
ladies of the special hospital commit
tee feel themselves greatly indebted
to Mr.. Gleason for the great interest
he has taken in the matter and they
feel that in him the hospital move
ment has found a fast friend and that
the movement has received ''boost"
through his efforts that will be of the
greatest value in furthering the
plans of the ladies.
There will be other work done
upon the plans for the hospital in
the immediate future and there will
be some definite action formulated.
And all this the result of the "Horse
Show"
There was a god attendance last
evening and a good entertainment
was seen. The pony that was given
away was taken by Miss Mamie
Moore, daughter of Oscar Moore, of
Rose Hill.

RESIDENCE BURNED.
Capt. Chas. SANKEY'S Property Dam
aged by Fire.

There was a good sized blaze Sat
urday morning damaging the prop
erty of Capt. Charles Stanley at the
corner of A avenue and E sire Ut.
The place was occupied by Mr.. and
Mrs. F. P. Law who rent some of the
apartments of the house t. roomers.
The fire caught in all probability
from the kitchen chimney and the
flames had quite a start when the
alarm was sounded.
The fire company was busily en-
gagged in making a test of the new
water service and there was a delay
in getting to the house, but n ar
rived at the scene of the fire there
was excellent pressure and the fire
was soon under control.
The loss will be fully covered by
insurance to the amount of $500.
Mrs Law who was in the house
dangerously i'll of dropsy was taken
from the burning building and placed
in the Stanley home next south.
There will be considerable damage
to the household goods of Mr.. and
Mrs. Law from water and smoke.

A SINGLE QUESTIoN.
0skaloosa People are Requested
to Honestly Answer This.

Is not the word of a representative
citizen of Oskaloosa more convincing
than the doubtful utterances of peo-
pie living everywhere else IN the
Union? Read this:
Mr.. Geo. Playle, of 1914 West A
avenue, says: "My back panied me
for quite awhile just over the hips,
and at times it was a serious obstacle
to my movements, such as STOPPING,
lifting, etc. Time passed and as it
got no better when l learned of

THE BOSTON LADIES
Auspicious Opening of the Union
Lecture Course Friday
Evening.

The Union Lecture Course that has
been SO popular in the city for the
past several years, was opened last
evening for the season of 190O-19O1
in the Methodist church, to an audi
ence that filed every part of the
large auditorium.
The entertainment given was by
the Boston Ladies' Symphony Or
chestra and the evening was one of
rarest pleasure to all who were in at
tendance, This was not the first ap-
pearance of the ladies in the city and
the excellence of the entertainment
! was well known. The expectations
of the large audience were not dis
appointed in the least. Following is
the program presented:
March, HELENE Caste
Overture, Rienzi Wagner
Trombone Solo, The Signal Brooks
Miss Oda Rudolph.
Cornet Solo, The Palms Jaure
Miss Elizabeth Banks.
Overture, Raymond Thomas
Tuba Solo, Beelzebub Catozzi
Miss Nellie Nicholson.
Flute Solo, Come back to Erin,
Air Varia Armstrong
Miss Florence E, Beckett.
Violin Solo, Ballad ct Polonaise,
Vieuxtemps
Miss Grace A, Hastings.
Bass Solo, Bandolero, Stuart
Mr.. Carl GRANGE.
Descriptive, In a Bird Store Orth
Airs from the Burgomaster Luders
Mr.. John Caste, O~skaloosa's young
composer, was complimented in no
slight degree by having his march
"Hellene" placed on the program
that was played by the ladies.
The orchestra is we'll balanced and
the best of results are obtained by
the director, Mr.. Frank w Mckee,
who is to be congratulated upon his
leadership.
There was on the program perhaps
too many solos. The audience would
have preferred to hear more of the
concert work of the orchestra. There
is little criticism to offer, however,
on the work of the individual per-
formers and each of them had to re-
spond to encores. The vocalist, Mr..
Clark GRANGE, of New York, was
much liked and he was called upon
for three numbers. The program was
thus made twice its intended length.

The Green Candy Company is

a business location in Des Moines
that offers them the greatest advan-
tage. The company has taken a half
interest in the firm of Monette & Co.

The addition of the Des Moines
branch of the business will in no way
affect the business in this city which
will be continued in the same excel

it's past.
The location of the Des Moines
store is opposite the Frankel de-

that there will be a large business as
the field for a retail candy establish
