Colville Reservation onened.

Spokane, Wash, Oct. 1O.-The north
half of the Colville Indian reservation
will be opened to settlement at noon
today. Hundreds of homeseekers are
already on the land, and many are
waiting close to the borders. Some
"sooners" have already erected cabins
and declare their intention to hold
valuable claims with Winchesters if
necessary. There is a great rush at
the Spokane and Waterville land Of
fees, but little trouble is looked for,
owing to the great area of the tract
thrown open, which is about equal in
size to the state of Delaware.

Colonel Crawford told him to be

OF late there has been considerable
scouting and skirmishing in the prov
inces of Abra and North Ilocos, though
without decisive results. 1t is obvious.
however, that the maneuyers of the
Filipinos are more skillful than form
erly and the field tactics of the Amer
leans are being followed by them.
Senor Mabini, the virtual founder of
the socalled Filipino government. who
was captured by the Americans last
December and lodged in Jail in Manila,
has been liberated. He had always
persistently refused to take the oath
of allegiance to the United States gov
ernment, and had maintained his repu-
tation among the Filipinos as reso-
|. lutte patriot. They now believe that he
has reached a private understanding
with the Americans authorities which
has secured his release, and. conse-
quently, he has lost some of his popu-
larity, although he is still considered
! the leader of the dormant revolution
ary element.
This week the commission will begin
the work of revising the tariff, making
use of the results of the investigation
of the army board in this direction
1t is the intention of the commission
to give American trade better chance
than it has heretofore enjoyed. owing
to the high duties.

If a statement Is disputed, 1t is the ora tors place to make it good. Any mem Der of the audience may rise to his feet and shout out a contradiction whenever he feels like 1t, and by the custom of English public life the speaker Is expected to make some re- ply on the spot.
 Mir. Chamberlain was always a dan gerous man to cross in debate, but the personal feeling against him was so bitter for years after his withdrawal from the ranks of The separatists that many an unhappy man was driven to tilt against his shield. 1t was delicious to watch Mir. Chamberlain's handling of the situation. He would pause when the Interruption grew serious and give the heckler a chance to make himself well heard. "Now if you will allow me I will ask that gentleman to get upon a chair that we may all have the pleasure of seeing him." A dozen anI- ious hands would hoist the obJector h. to unwelcome prominence. "Now, sir," came the clear, passlonless voice, twill you kindly speak up2 l should be sorry if any one missed what you have to say"
 The heckler, now quite unnerved, would stammer out something, and Mir. Chamberlain, listening with ma licious smile, would quietly readjust his eyeglass and. turning to the au- dience, fling out a reply-cool, cutting and decisive.-Sydney Brooks In liar ] per's Magazine.
