Children should not study at
home, says Edward Box in the Oc-
tober LADIES' Home Journal. No
tify your child's' teacher that no
more study will be permmitted in
your home. See to it that your
is allowed to come home from
school with the same satisfactory
feeling that the business man feels
when he comes home; that his days
work is done. 1t is over. 1t is be-
hind him. He is ready to give his
thoughts to other things; to clear
his mind of the days work; to calm
his brain for a refreshing nights
rest, to which he finally goes with
thoughts of other things than busi-
ness. So should it be with the
child. His studies should not be
the last thing on his mind. He
should go to sleep after hours Of
play and fresh air. Then his sleep
will be quiet and refreshing, and
his mind, when he awakens, will
be clear and fresh for IA new days
studies.

FIERCE FILIPINO FIGHTS.
Many Insurgents Killed and Few
American Casualties.

Manila, April 26. About 300 OF the
enemy have been killed recently in North
llocos, including Dodd's fight and the
attack on Batoc, April 16, when from
600 to 700 rebels, a quarter of whom
we're armed with rifles, determinedly at
tackled the Americans, charging their
positions and fighting at close quarters.
The engagement lasted all the afternoon,
the enemy burning the town, but they
were repulsed after the arrival of Ameri-
can reinforcements.
The insurgents generally are aggress-
i've In that province. They captured an
American provision wagon near Lapo.
The Americans, having obtained evil
dence that alcaldes of Mago, Lingaspal,
Labugas and Sinait were holding treach-
erous communications with the insur-
nts,lmprisoned them and burned LapO
town hall.
There have been several minor fights
in the province, including an attack by
zoo insurgents on Lavag April II, 40
OF whom were killed and so were cap
tured.
The officers report that the men of the
Ihirty-third regiment and Third cavalry
behaved splendidly under very trying
circumstances. There were no American
casualties at Batoc, where 18O insur.
gents were killed and 70 captured.

GREAT FIRE AT OTTAWA.
Loss will Reach Fully Twenty Mil
lions of Dollars.

Ottawa, Ont, April 27.-At 5 O'Clock
the fire which has ragged here and at
Hull, across the river, since IL O'Clock
yesterday morning was under control.
For lS hours the fire has ragged, with
the people OF two cities pOwerless to
check it's ravages. Engines were brought
from Montreal and from all cities within
reach, but they came too late to be of
much assistance.
Today the people are in dazed state.
Thousands upon thousands OF them are
helpless, all the big manufacturing plants
OF the two towns are DESTROYED, and
there is no work for those who are with
out food and without shelter. Railroad
and teIegraphic arrangements have been
broken, and it will be with the greatest
difficulty that order will be brought out
OF the frightful chaos that now prevails.
The total loss will amount to twenty
millions of dollars or more.
In Ottawa 1000 buildings have been
destroyed.
In Hull ], 800 buildings we're burned
Fully $4,000 people have lost their
homes, and when one considers that the
combined population of the two cities is
not $4,000, one can imagine the distress
that will follow the great catastrophe.
The Dominion government at a cab
met meeting today decided to give $780,
600 to relieve the sufferers of the Ottawa
and Hull fires.
The city council has decided to give
$4,000.
The losses in both cities by fire are
epitomized as follows
Buildings destroyed in Ottawa, On
tario, $500.
Buildings destroyed in Hull, Quebec,
1900.
Total loss to both cities, s2O,OOO,-
Total insurance, both cities, $12, ,OOO,-

REPUBLICANS WANT BRYAN.
So Thinks Wharton Barker the
MiddIe-Of-the-ROad

Philadelphia, April 29.-Interest has
been aroused in the approaching popul-
ist convention to be held in Cincinnati
May 9, owing to the possibility of that
party turning it's back upon W. Bryan.
According to Wharton Barker, who has
received the endorsement of some of the
populist state conventions for president.
there will be between 800 and 1000 dele
gates at the Cincinnati convention, the
majority coming from south, west and
central west.
Asked as to the effect OF his nomina-
tion for president by the populists on
Mr.. Bryan's candidacy, Mr.. Barker said:
"There can be no longer doubt in the
mind of anyone who considers the situa-
tion that at least 1 100000 of the q
100000 populist votes cast for Mr..
Bryan in 1896 will this year be lost to
him and cast for the presidential candi-
date of the peoples party. That the
democratic leaders know this fact is
made clear by the course of Hill, Patti
son, German and their associates. The
democrats will probably give the nom.

TWENTY SOLDIERS WERE KILLED.
Garrison of Thirty were FierceIy At
tackled by the FiIipinos.

Manila, May 2.-The American garri-
son OF Catubig, in the island of Samar
consisting OF 30 men belonging TO the
forty,thlrd regiment, has been attacked
oy rebels. Twenty OF the Americans
were killed. The remainder were res
cued.
Inc Americans were Quartered in Cain
big church, which the enemy, numbering
several hundred men, surrounded and
attacked. The Americans fought for
two days and then the rebels managed
to ignite the roof of the church. and II
burned away and finally fell upon those
inside the editice. The walls remained
intact, however, and were used as a
shelter by the besieged Americans for
three days longer, the enemy attacking
the building on all sides at once. The
Americans continued firing from the
windows and doors CT the church and
did good execution among the Filininos
1t Is estimated that over 200 of the
latter were killed, many of the dead
bodies having been removed from the
scene OF the fighting. After five days'
resistance by the Americans. lieutenant
and eight men arrived from Loan and en-
gagged the besiegers, who thereupon re-
tired. The fortunate arrival of these re-
lnforcements prevented the annihilation
OF the American force entrenched in the
church, who had repeatedly declined to
surrender when ordered. The 10 surviy-
Ors were without food, had little ammu.
milton and were exhausted when relieved.

MIR. Barker secuted the idea of a strong
opposition to President Mckinley at the
republican contention in this city. He
asserted that the presidents friends con

he would be renominated.
MIR. Barker SAYS he thinks the popuI-
lists have a fighting chance to win the
presidential fight. With Mckinley BRYAN

aster, POI dead bodies have been re-
covered from the exploded mine.
1t is known that between 800 aud 400
men entered the mines and it is also
known that a great majority of them

OF the disaster had not fully dawned on
the people at this place last night as the
company kept griefstricken wives and
children away from the scene of opera
tiOns.
All night long lights were kept burn
ing in every home in Scofeld and the
winter quarters, and the moans of
mothers and the piteOus cries of manv
L

employed. This fact makes the disaster
more appalling and far-reaching in it's
results. Several families have been
robbed of all their male representatives.

boys who acted as couplers and trap
boys.

republicans that the shipping subsidy
and army reorganization bills must be

Gratis would filibuster and keep congress

iournment before the Philadelphia con-

especial reluctance, for the shipping bill
was known to be practically dead This

CANAL PROJECT COMPLICATED
Worth of Right-of-Wa Concessions
of Two Must he
Decided.

WASHINGTON, Feb. lO.-State depart
ment officials admit that the existence Of
two great interests claiming exclusive con-
cessions in the Nicaraguan canal project
tends to complicate very much the negotia-
tions which must be undertaken with Near
aqua and Costa Rica as a condition prece-
dent TO the acquisition OF a right OF way for
the canal by the United States. II is said
that the department has not felt itself called
upon to decide between these two rival in
]terests, but attention is directed to the fact
that the conflict is now before an arbitration
tribunal, which the Nicaragua government
has authorized. Should this arbitration de-
eide that neither claimant is entitled to any
concession then the problem would be very
much simplifed. But should It hold that one
OF the parties has a just claim then It Will
be necessary for congress in perfecting the
Nicaragua bill to make sure that suitable
provision is included to compensate the ao-
cession accounts for any equities they may
possess.

TUTUlLA GOVERNOR NAMED
Commander SeatOn-SchrOeder VIII
Take Charge of Our Island in
the Samoan Group.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1O.-It has been
practically decided by the secretary of the
navy to appoint Commander Seaton
Schroeder to be the first naval governor of
the Samoan island of Tutuila. Commander
Schroeder is at present on duty in Washing
ton as a member of the board charged with
the revision of the naval regulations. This
work is about complete, so that the officer
will be able to leave for his new post at an
early day. 1t is expected that Captain Tilley
of the Abarenda, the station ship at Page
Page, will look after United States inter-
eSts in ,T1ltuila until the regular governors
arrival. 1t is expected that Captain Tilley
has already notified the native Inhabitants of
the annexation of the island. The work Of
establishing a coaling station has been Wig
orously pushed and now that a governor is
to be appointed, the department will take
steps to have a suitable residence erected
for his occupation, in addition to the coal
sheds and machinery buildings already I'M
der erection at Page Page.
For a time, at Least, the department will
maintain one of the auxiliary vessels as a
station ship at Page Page, although as Cap
tain Tilley is to come home in the spring,
some other vessel than the Abarenda may
be assigned to this duty.
The naval officers have Just completed an
other survey of Page Page harbor. 1t dis
closes the fact that the harbor is well nigh
perfect and beyond placing two buoys on
as many rocks, there is no occasion to ex-
pend any money for improvements.
