away may live to fight another
day, finds an illustration in the
FilipinOs' method of fighting.
They ran away and scattered when
the American army marched
against them The army was with
drawn from a number of districts
under the belief that the Filipinos
had come to a peaceful frame OF
mind. Not SO. however, for the
late kilograms say that wherever
the army has been with drawn the

Three hundred students of Buck
nell University saved a large part
of Lewisburg from fire last Friday.
The fire broke out in a fOundery at
the Pennsylvania station. The
wind was high and blew myriads
of sparks across the town south
ward firing houses and stables here
and there in the direction of the
wind. The fire department could
only be in one place at one time,
and it was just in that particular
that the student became great
factor in the rescue of the town
from the fiery demon. They scat
tered themselves on house tops in
the current of sparks and with
buckets of water extinguished the
fire as it fell.
The stable of David Naylor and
Rev. Campbell were destroyed by
fire last Thursday afternoon in
Port Royal. A. j. Petit had the
Naylor stable rented and kept two
horses there. Rev. Campbell and
baker Bitner were among the first
people upon the scene. The fire
was in the hay NOW and was COM
ing down into the horse rack. They
tried to get the horses out. One
of the animals broke its halter and
ran out all afire. The other ami
NAL was overcome in the flames.
Citizens with buckets kept the
roOves of the surrounding houses
and stables wet, thereby keeping
down general cOntlagratiOn.
Four different houses were set on
fire by the flames of the burning
stables, but every fire on the rOOves
of houses were extinguished by the
bucket brigade, showing that it is
a good thing to do to go on wood
eli roof with a bucket of water in
time of Il neighboring fire. The
stables were insured. 1t is not
known how the fire originated.
The remains of Mrs. John A.
Kaufman were brought from Har-
risburg to this place on Thursday,
April 5, for interment in the Pres
hNterian cemetery in this town
