IN THE PHILIPPINES.
Recent Attacks In which Alleged
Amigos Are Thought to
Have Taken Part.

Manila, Oct. 1.-The Filipinos in the
vicinity of Manila have been more
quiet of late, although last Wednes-
day night there were brisk attacks at
Las Pinas and Paranaque, south of
Manila, as well as outpost firing at
linus, Bacoor and Muntin Lupa. The
American officers are satisfied that
the alleged amigos living in and
around the towns in question partici-
pated in these attacks. Official re-
ports have been received of insurgent
activity in Zambalos province and in
Batangas province. Two skirmishes
occurred during the week on the Bicol
river, in the province of South Cam
arines. 1t is estimated that the in
surgents lost 90 killed in the various
districts. Two civilians, John McMa-
hon and Ralph McCord, of San Fran
cisco, who started on business trip
for Vigan and Bangued, in northern
Luzon, have not been heard from for
three weeks. 1t is feared that they
have been killed or captured by the
insurgents,

The young husband was elated over
the effect his friends speech was hav-
ing on his wife, and he thought of the
happy effect those words would have
on their evening at home. The young
wife appeared to be as happy as her
husband to hear the words of the
young bookkeeper, but finally she

DOGS SUFFER FROM WORRY.
Many Cases of Nervous Prostitution
Reported aS Result of Grand
Army Reunion.

The grand army reunion and the
Labor day parade have left some sad
remembrances along Michigan avenue
in the form of regular epidemic OF
canine nervous prostration, says the
Chicago Tribune. The pet and toy
dogs which have been lording it over
the common kind along the Lake
Front park are now many of them
under the care OF veterinary surgeons
for most aggravated cases of snap
pishness and nerves. Following upon
the excitement and crowds Of the re.
union and parade came the hot spell
and then the dogs betrayed symp
toms which were feared by many to
be hydrophobia. Their usually kind
and placid dispositions were decidedly
soured and they became really dan.
gerous.
At one time three pet dogs from one
block were under the care of the doc
tors, with their feminine owners
weeping nearby and begging their
lives be spared. Had they been ordi.
nary, plain dogs their deaths would
have been decreed forthwith.
The veterinary in charge said thai
he had had at least dozen cases Of
the kind in the space of few days
and found that in every instance tn,
patients were suffering from overex
citement, overlooking and heat.

WATER AFTER THE SODA.
Desire for Drink Is Proof That
the sweet stun Does Not
Quench Thirst.

"Will you have glass of water after
your ice cream soda, lady?" said the
clerk at the soda fountain, according to
the Chicago Tribune.
IF you please" answered the Gus
toner. "The water takes the sweet
taste out of my mouth"
"Do you know" resumed the clerk
to his confidant as the woman moved
away, Il can't afford to knock my own
business, but would like to tell that
woman and hundreds like her that
the drink she ought to have had in
the first place was water. If she had
taken drink of cool water before
swallowing that mixture OF strip,

would have been satisfied. But she

TOBACCO GROWS IN TENTS.
Attempts Are Being Made to Grow Ha-
vana and Sumatra Leaf in
Connecticut.

An experiment in growing Havana
seed and Sumatra tobacco in Conrecti-
cut soil, under tent, is being con-
Quoted by Prof. L. Fl. jenkins, of the
state agricultural station of New
Haven, and Marcus A. Floyd, tobacco
expert of the United States department
of agriculture, says recent report.
The covering is made of cheese cloth,
is nine feet high and contains 3,1G0 feet
of cloth. Prof. Jenkins told a
Sun reporter that the covering
offered many advantages, retain
ing the moisture in the ground
longer than where it was exposed, Sc
curing a temperature of from five to
ten degrees hotter, and protecting the
plants from heavy transforms or hail.
Excessively heavy hail may penetrate
through the cloth, but the fall will be
sufficiently broken to prevent the
plants from being broken. Mr.. Floyd,
in speaking of the experiments, said:
"The Sumatra is progressing finely.
The leaves are smaller, of a brighter
green and finer shade, and are silkier
than that raised in the open. We are
gathering the crop by leaves, picking
them as they become fully matured
and leaving the stalk. This produces a
much better result than to dry them on
the stalk. The Havana seed is not do
ing so well, and the outcome is in
doubt"
Prof. Jenkins said that Connecticut
tobacco no longer answered the de-
mand of the trade, and if the attempt
to grow Sumatra here was successful
it would result in great prosperity for

SOME POST OFFICE FIGURES.
Interesting Facts from the Report
of the London Postmaster
General.

The annual report of the postmas-
ter genera, although not due till par
lament reassembles, has been made
public by Lord Londonderry. He re-
tails the colossal plumbers of the pub
lie with great gusto. 1t is really as
tonishing that 2Ss,667 packets should
be posted unaddressed ald still more
that 2,767 contained cash, notes postal
orders and other paper money. There
is another record of carelessness
against the public in the fact that the
articles found loose in the post have
increased by nearly so per cent. in the
last four years. The craze for cheap
ness affects even postal covers, to our
loss, It would seem. For the fact that
undelivered correspondence for the
army in South Africa is being re-
turned in large quantities, there is
ample explanation in the melancholy
list of losses in the war. The post
master general appears to be sur
prised That 35,44s letters addressed to
the Transvaal and the Orange Free
State, which were stopped at Cape
Town at the outbreak of the war,
''were not claimed there by the per-
sons TO- whom they were intended"
There was, no doubt, difficulty in
the way of either Beers or uitlanders
sending down to Cape Town for their
mails after war had been declared.
There is healthy surplus on the
working of the department Of e3,-
71O63I which will please the cham
cellor of the exchequer. But the de-
felt on telegraphs has increased from
6 sc, 500 to E 2ss, 43s.

REVENGE IS SWEET.
How One Man Was Cured of Dis
GUESSING Love Affairs.
Troubles of a Young Married Man
VINO Had Confided i'm a Fellow
CIerk-Green-Eyed Monster
of Jealousy Aroused.

For several months the head book
keeper in large Chicago mercantile
establishment had been taking up all
the leisure time of the clerks and
other employees in the Office telling
them of his intention to marry. lie
wanted to marry Immediately, and he
was decided upon whom he would
marry, but he explained to the office
force that there was another young
woman among his acquaintance who
he was confident expected he would
some day ask her to be his wife. This
young ladys name was Clara, while
that of the one he really loved was
Edith. The young men who were
forced into his confidence about his
love affairs were bored by his con-
slant repetitions of his troubles, and
the announcement that he had been
married while he was away on his va
cation came as a relief to them all.
One afternoon, says the Chicago
Chronicle, the head bookkeeper's wife
visited him at the Office for the first
time and waited until he had finished
his days work to go home with him.
AS the couple left the office at five
o'clock the husband called to one of
the other bookkeepers who usually
rode home on the same car with him
to join. The young husband intro
duced his wife, and after the three
had boarded a South side elevated
train told the young wife how fortu-
nate she was in marrying man who
loved her so devotedly. He said:
