OTIS RELIEVED.
Term of Service as Military Governor
of Philippines-MacAr to
Succeed Him.

Washington, April 9.-Gen. Elwell
S. Otis has been formally relieved of
command of the troops in the Philip
pines and Gen. Macarthur will SUE
coed him in the direction of affairs
in the new possessions. From the
text of the correspondence made pub
lie by the war department. all idea of
Gen. Otis returning to Manila is aban-
doned and Gen. Macarthur is to be
the military governor. It has been
known for some time that Gen. Otis
was to leave the Philippines. It has
been the impression that he was to be
granted a leave of absence as soon as
he could put affairs in such shape AS
to be able to leave them until about
October, when he might return.
The correspondence between Gen.
Otis and the war department., how
ever, leaves it to be inferred that Gen.
Otis does not desire to go back to
Manila, but has no request to make
regarding his future sphere of duty.

Department Store Burned.

Pittsburgh, Pa, April 9.-For the
second time in three years the extern
sive department store of Joseph Horne
& Co., at the corner of Fifth street and
Penn avenue, is in ruins. Shortly after
midnight Saturday Policeman Sylves-
ter Doyle discovered flames issuing
from the windows of the eighth floor,
and inside of an hour the big eight
story structure was completely Quilted,
entailing loss of over 81, 900 900. If the
building, which was supposed to be
fireproof, proves to be SO badly warped
as to necessitate a new structure, the
loss will be nearly 100000.

JESUIT MISSIONS.
Senator Vest, of Missouri, Pays Trib-
ute to Catholic Work Among
the Indians.

Washington, April 9.-During almost
the entire session of the senate Satur-
day an amendment to the Indian APP
preparation bill offered by Senator
Jones providing for the continuance of
the governments employment of the
contract Indian schools, in certain cir
2cumstances, was under consideration.
The debate took a wide range, the
whole question of sectarian schools be-
ing gone over at length. The notable
feature of the discussion was an elo-
quent speech delivered in support of
the amendment by Senator Vest. The
amendment was pending when the SEN
ate adjourned, the whole vote upon it
disclosing that no quorum was present.

Chicago, April 9. = 1t is learned
through the national democratic head
quarters that preparations are being
made to boom former Gov. Robert

candidate for vice president at the

officials here are not willing to be quot
ed for publication, but they admit Mr..

The record was broken in the St.

the person it was intended to reach

THE Tyre BIRD.
A Plumed Ventriloquist That Makes
Enough Noise for a dozen
Birds

The ground is hidden beneath mass
of jungle grass, sword grass and fern,
all bowed under a weight of moisture,
and this forest is dreary, damp and
cold. It is billy country, and you hear
the notes of the different birds echo
ing and deceiving you. They are all
high, piping sounds, save now and then
when a thud-thud like thunderbolt
seems to strike the earth. It is a fright
ened wallaroo or wallaby who is leap
ing, pausing to listen, and leaping on
again over the green coating of the
earth. S>
Now, you hear Tyre bird before you.
Doubtless he is not more than 20 yards
ahead, for the sound seems to rise un-
der cover of your gun, which with very
nervous hands you are holding before
you. But that bird is rascally ven
triloquist, knowing how to pitch his
voice and send it in any direction.
Never mind-he is singing, SO you move
on towards him. Take heed to your
surroundings and to the weight of your
football. Should you fall foul of some
rambling vine, or put down your foot
too quickly, the Tyre bird will gather
up his music and his tail, and you will
hear him no more. You must stand
still as death and wait, if needs be, half
an hour for his second performance.
When he is well on with it you may go
on, too, for his own excitement and the
sound of his own voice will kill out all
other sounds and he will not hear YOU
stealing on him.
He is disporting himself on mound
Of vegetable mold five or six feet in
diameter, which he has earthed up
Around him are long grasses and ferns,
through which he has made holes into
which he can dart at will to elude his
enemies. Above is one clear branch
on to which he will leap when instinct
tells him he is safe from harm. Here
he will perch and plume himself pre-,
vious to winging his fight to some other
play or feeding ground. BY avoiding
every obstacle and pausing breathless.

MANY SKIRMIsHES,
American Troops and Filipino In-
surEents Engage In NUM-
Der of EncounterS

Manila, Sunday, April s. -Reports of
encounters between the American
troops and the insurgents continue to
arrive from many points. On Friday.
Capt. Sturgis, while accommodating,
struck an insurgent outpost on the
Nevaliches road, five miles distant from
Manila, killing two and capturing ten.
All were in full uniform. Unfortu-
nately Capt. Sturgis' force was not
large enough to pursue the main body.
a detachment Of the Forty-second in
tantry, while scouting in Laguna prov
lnce, was pursued by the insurgents
and obliged to take refuge in church
at Paeto, where the Americans repealed
the rebels until reenforcements ar
rived. Lieut.. Gordon, with company
OF the Sixteenth infantry, while scout
ing near Aparri, Cagayan province, en-
gagged $50 insurgents. Lieut.. Gordon
was wounded. A sergeant and COR
Poral of company I, Eighteenth in
1antry, were killed in a severe fight in
Capiz province, island of Panay. The
insurgents made night attack upon
Calbayon, island of Samar. They
killed the sentry, swarmed into the
town, and searched the house of Maj.
Gilmore, of the Forty-third infantry,
who was absent. They killed his cook.
Ultimately the Americans drove them
out of the town, killing four and cap
turing ~.
Gen. Young, commanding in North
Luzon, has made several requests for
reenforcements, representing that his
force is inadequate, that the men are
exhausted by the necessity of constant
vigilance, that he is unable to garri-
son the towns in his jurisdiction, that
the insurgents are returning to tie
district and killing the amigos, and
that it is necessary for him to infiict
punishment in several sections before
the rainy season begins. Gen. James
Bell, who is commanding in southern
Luzon, has made similar representa-
lions. He says his forces are made
quate and that he merely holds few
towns, without controlling the terri
tory.
The president of the town of Samal,
province of Bataar, Luzon, and another
prominent native, have been assassi-
mated because they were known to be
friendly to the Americans. The presi-
dent of another town has Joined the
insurgents because they had threat
ened to kill him if he did not.

The Kicking Kangaroo.

Trace bit of mischief anywhere in
the world and an American is as likely
as not to be at the bottom of it. Like
the plague of kangaroos in Brittany,
Franco. An American who had lived
in Australia bought an estate in Brit
tany and turned some kangaroos loose
in his park. They have bred with great
rapidity and
'sBut the kick of the kangaroo
M'sieu! It is terrible!" say the peas
ants. They are not used to kangaroos.
The result Of this is that the kangaroos
now have to be hunted and exterminat-
ed, lest they become a nuisance.
