THE WAR IN THE PHILIPPINES.

THE WAR IN THE PHILIPPINES.
The condition of affairs in the Philip
pine islands is in no way gratifying to
our national pride, nor does it rebound
to the credit of the Republican admins
tration. The war with the natives has
lasted more than two years, and peace
seems further away today than it did
at the outbreak of hostilities. Gen. Otis,
after displaying remarkable faculty for
suppressing the truth as to the situation,
and facility for furnishing garbled or
misleading reports, has left the Islands,
and is sailing homewards, having utterly
failed to accomplish the subjugation of
the natives. Sixty thousand American
troops are scattered along the shores of
the Philippine archipelago, and are fight
ing for a foothoId. Bloodier battles have
been fought in the last month than at
any time since the war commenced. The
losses TO our troops have been greater
in these fights than at any previous time
Aguinaldo, the insurgent leader is re-
ported to have again taken the field, and
his followers appear to be able to secure
all the arms and ammunition they can
buy The city of Manila is threatened
with a native uprising. The American
troops in the island of Luzon cannot
communicate by telegraph with the
troops in the islands of Panay, Negros
or Cebu, which are cut off from cable
communication with Gen Macarthur at
his headquarters 1t is alleged the cable
was broken by an earthquake, but it is
more probable that it was cut by the ma
tives. The military telegraph lines, of
which Gen. Otis boosted, do not penetrate
into the interior of the islands. The
natives everywhere are more hostile to
our troops than they were one year ago,
and aid the insurgents whenever oppor-
tunity occurs Small parties of our
troops which venture a few miles from
the coasts into the interior are ambush
ed and driven back by overwhelming
numbers, and punitive expeditions fail
by reason of lhe hostility of the natives

ing information from them as to the
movements of the guerrilla bands. Our

WHAT TO EAT AND WHY.

Never before has the subject of dietet-
les received anything like the degree of
consideration from the American people
which has been bestowed upon it during
the past year. or two. Indeed, it is a fact
universally recognized as true, that no
people in the world show or have shown
SO complete an ignorance or disregard of
the common laws of hygiene in their diet
as the American. For generations we
have gone on disregarding the most essen
tial and fundamental laws governing the
healthfuf consumption of food. until we
have come to be regarded as a nation of
dyspeptics.
AS people we seem to have as little
understanding concerning the most desir-

Fancy for Antique Glass

London Chronicle.
Antique glass is the latest mania. and
the Waterford glass is the special quest
of the collector. This glass is pale green
in color and beautifully cut and orna-
mented. Jugs and wine glasses of this
kind are very artistic in effect. Mr.. Rid

glass-not a piece of glass appears on

ANCESTRY OF JEFFERSON DAVIS.

The discovery has recently been
made that Samuel Davis, the father
OF Jefferson Davis, was a participant
in the battle OF Kettle Creek, Ga,
during the Revolutionary war, and he
served with signal bravery during that
memorable conflict. 1t is known to
history that the father Of Jefferson
Davis was Il Georgian, but very little
has even been found concerning his per.
s0nal career. In the memoirs OF her
husband written by Mrs. Jefferson
Davis is a vague account Of his ances.
tors, but her inability to give details Is
not to be wondered at when 1t Is re.
membered that Jefferson Davis was
the younger of ten children, and that
he was born while the family was en-
route from Georgia to Mississippi, and
his father died when he was still
child. Furthermore, not until within
few years past have the public
thought or cared for ancestral history,
and the life Of Jefferson Davis was too
full OF the present to dig among the
dry bones Of the past. The battle Of
Kettle Creek took place 10 Wilkes
county, Ca, during the year l779, and
q recently discovered manuscript In
that county shows that Samuel Davis
was a man Of fighting stock. The
grandfather Of jefferson Davis is bu-
ricd In Wilkes county. m y

PRESBYTERIAN SYNOD.

At the session Of the Mississippi
Presbyterian synod, just adjourned, at
HattiesbuTg, a resolution was adopted
authorizing the presentation Of an
overture to the general assembly of
the church which meets at Little
Rock next May, asking the creation of
separate synod of the Presbyteries
of South Mississippi, Louisiana, New
Orleans and Red River and to make
another synod Of the Presbyteries of
Mississippi, central Mississippi, north
Mississippi, Meridian, Tombigbee and
Chicasaw, six in number. The north
Mississippi and Chickasaw Presby-
teries have heretofore been within the
domain Of the Memphis synod, but
they have overturned the assembly to
join them to the newly formed Missis-
sippi synod, and there is said to be
hardly any doubt but what such action
will be taken. This places the entire
State OF Mississippi with the excep.
tiUn of ten counties in the Southern
portion within one synod.

BY MAURICE THOMPSON.

Oh, did you hear the drowsy wind
Go signing half asleep?
And did you feel across your mind
A dreamy wonder creep?
Somewhere, far off, bird sang low,
Cicardes Jared the grass;
Mayhap you saw, 1 do not know
Mayhap you saw me pass!
And Love was by me, and Delight,
We three did trudge along,
Cumbered with sweets from morn till
night,
And overfilled with song.
Behind us burned the summer land,
Fair autumn lay before,
And we-oh, we went hand in hand
A-singing ever more!
And then you knew the lazy wind
Was signing half asleep;
But did you ever feel across your mind
A dreamy wonder creep3

COLORADO AFFAIR.

Natchez Bulletin,
The details OF the negro lynching in
a Colorado town, not far from the city
Of Denver, is OF such a terrifying, re-
Voting character that they will COM
pare with the Indian atrocities COM
mitted in the early days Of the repub'
lic. The nerves tingle with horror as
the eyes followed the record. The
negro who was burned had outraged
and murdered little girl, and he de-
served death, but not such a death as
would have been inflicted by savages
OF earlier days. The shocking Incl.
dent gives emphasis to a conviction
expressed in these columns a while
back that antipathy to the negro Is
not confined to the South; and that
when the negro commits the terrible
crime so often rightly charged to him
his life Is the forfeit without regard
to section. And 1t is to be observed
that the Colorado people not only
killed the offending negro, but ha st
ordered the negroes in the locality to
move away.

Prior to any action on the part of

buried before the matter was brought
