ippincs to Change Flags.
Washington: Secretary Hay and Duke
d'Arco, the Spanish minister, signed a pro-
totNl Il few days ago extending for six
months the period of time allowed Spanish
residents i'll the Philippine Islands to elect
whether they shall remain Spanish SUBJ
jects or surrender their allegiance and
adopt the nationality of the territory in
which they reside.
The article in the Paris treaty bearing on
this subject allowed the Spanish residents
one year from the date of the exchange of
notifications of the treaty within which to
make their choice. That period expires on
the llth of April.
Many important towns in Luzon, where
Spanish subjects reside. are as yet without
American garrisons and the assertion of
American Sovereignty over them has been
rather technical than practical. while on
many OF the Philippine Islands no Anneri-
can troops or representatives Of the Ameri-
can government have ever laniei. These
considerations are deemed sufficient to
warrant the extension 10 the Spanisl, resi-
cents OF more time in which To make up

A THRIFTY FARMER.
Ships His Boys as "I4ivc stock' and
Saves $50 in Fares.

a farmer from Nebrask has recently
moved to IL ranch near Rapid City. He
brought all of his possessions In a car in
GLIDING some live stock. There was one
large box which was heavily Grated and
was billed anything but the right way.
The car was delayed two days on the way
and the farmer made frequent trips from the
caboose to his live stock. When the train
arrived in Rapid City it was noticed that
the farmer had two small boys with him
who had not been very numerous on the
trip. Since the big box with crates was
found empty it is surmised that the lads
had been shipped as 'live stock" The
farmer saved about $50 by his strategy.
