officials Are Gratified Over the Capture
of the Insurgent Leader.
Washington. March 29.-The press
reports of the capture of Aguinaldo
by General Funston were confirmed by
General Macarthur. at Manila, in the
following cablegram to Adjutant GEN
eral Corbin:
General Funston has just returned
from expedition to Palanan, province
of Isabella where he captured Aguin-
aldo, who is now in my possession at
Malacanan. Particulars later"
Malacanan is Genera! MacArthur's
headquarters and residence in Manila.
The news of General Agunaldos capt
ure by General Funston was received
everywhere in official circles with in
tense qualification but. perhaps, no.
where did it create more satisfaction
than at the White House. The first
official news to reach the executive
mansion was General MacArthurs dis
patch announcing the capture which
came about midnight. Iii the morn
ing the president saw Admirale Rem
eys telegram telling Of the capture and
the press dispatches.
The president naturally is very
much gratided that the chief mover
in the insurrection has at last been
taken. 1t has been the opinion Of the
military authorities for long ime that
Aguinaldo was doing more than all
the other agencies combined to keep
the rebellion in the Philippines alive
and every energy was directed to com
pass his capture 1t is rather a re-
markable tribute to the daring and re-
sourcefulness Of General Funston that
long before he made the attempt he
was selected by the authorities here
as the officer who might accomplish it.

MOVEMENT TO BUILD FACTORY
Appears to Have Collapsed, Nothing
Heard Now.

Is Americus going to haye that great
fertilizer factory, the building of which
was announced with flourish of trum-
pets several months ago, and repeatedly
played on the soft pedal at short IN
tervals since. It has been asserted
that the Virginia Carolina Chemical
Co., would certainly rebuild its acid
chambers here this spring and would,
at the same time, greatly increase the
capacity of its plant. Weeks reYolve
into months and there is, apparently,
no indication of beginning of the
work. Animmense quantity of guano,
possibly $4,000 to 10000 tons, have
been sold the farmers in this territory
this season, and at least half of this
should have been made in the factory
IN Americas. 1t is hoped that the V
G. people have not entirely abandoned
the idea of rebuilding their plant here,
as they have good nucleus to begin
With, but if they will not stay IN the
field there will be fine opening here
for local company to build and oper-
ate fertilizer plant.

THE BLIZZARD CAME SUDDENLY
Americas Again in Embrace of Old
Winter.

Was there ever such weather IS this
within the memory of the Oldest inhab-
liant? From balmy spring to hoary
winter and from winter back to spring
the transition is as sudden as the light
ning's stroke in a storm.
No old maid was ever more whimsl-
cal, and this weather is quite as uncer-
tain as her affections.
Thursday was an ideal spring day
baImy and bright, with singing birds
amid the budding trees and shirtwaist-
ed maidens making glad the heart of
man here in Americas.
But with the night there came a
change, and a whole city full shivered
with the approach of another day. For
yesterday was corker, and old Winter
drew another picture without shirt
waists, buds, birds and flowers.
And this picture was fringed with
icicles, with background of snow.
Rapidly the temperature fell, and
early IN the afternoon occasional fakes
of falling snow startled the nat1Yeswho
felt sure that spring had applied for a
homestead here.
1t was rude awakening from dream
that conjured up babbling brooks,
shady hooks, fishing hooks, picnics,
pretty girls and null dresses.
None but the coal baron felt the thrill
of JOY in Yesterdays weather.
1t will probably be much colder this
morning and if so gardens and fruit
orchards will suffer. Upon the other
hand it may be bright and warm. This
weather Is gem puzzle.
