April 16, 1901. \

DEAR MoTHER: / am enjoying
the best of health here now and
hope to continue for the next six
months, when my time will be out,
and j can come home.
The Insurgents are giving up
every day and going back to peace
full living.
General Funston captured Agui-
naldo about a week ago and was
made a regular army officer for SO
doing. He was greatly praised by
his superiors and the President OF
the L. 5. Great hardships were
endured on the trip.
1t is very, very hot here now and
we will have lots Of rain in few
months. Then many of the men
will be sick and | expect some of
them will die. A soldier has not
died here for quite while and the
men seem to be enjoying excellent
health.
Troops are now in the field all
the time and the few remaining
Rebels are kept on the go all the
time. We hope to crush them out
entirely and put an end to this
business.
The regular army is going to be
100, 900 strong and these islands
will be heavily garrisoned, then
suppose peace will come to every
one and nearly all be satisfied.
Your son,

Known now that the whole subject

III that is not done, and evacuation

i,c assessed 81, 900, 900 each month
after June.1 next to compensate the
powers for the maintenance of
their military forces in China.
Under this whip, the Chinese gov
ernment has been forced to yield.
1t is not known that the powers
have agreed or the form and ex-
tent of the guarantee, but now
that the amount of indemnity is
fixed not much difficulty is expect
ed on this score.

Mrs. Taggart, who was born and
reared in this place, a woman of
good family, and reputation, went
fishing alone in a small rowboat in
Pixoe Creek. This is in full view
of the public thoroughfare. A few
minutes before noon, desiring to re
turn home, she rowed her boat to
the city bridge, over the creek, and
made it fast. A negro man was
fishing from the bridge at the time.
