PEACE CLOSE AT HAND.
For months the hostile force in the
Philippines had been the fragments OF
the broken-up army, together with the
banditti. With the aid of natives We
can hunt down the lawless people, and
then | believe the islands will be COM
paratively peaceful. 1 am confident
Americans will find excellent opportu-
nifty in their new possessions and l
think the time is not far distant when
our force of American troops can be
reduced very materially, possibly down
to 10000 men.
Il mention this with regard to the
necessities in the Philippines alone, but
the condition in China may make it
advisable for US to hold larger force
in the Far East, and in that event Ma
Mia and vicinity would be convenient
place for them to be stationed.
Il don't think that treachery Is the
word to apply to the Filipinos. Agui-
naldo and his officers and adherentS
have made great efforts to convince
the FilipinoS that we are cruel bad
people. They tell them that We came
to America and despoiled the Indian
of his land and home, and that the
Filipinos must expect the same fate
unless they resist the Americans and
drive them from their shores. They
also printed numerous papers which
sought to convince them that there was
a strong party in the United States
: favoring their independence and that
the American forces would be with
drawn. 1t is but natural that such
teaching had it's effect.
''On the one hand they feared Am
erican rule, and at the same time did
not dare to commit themselves to us
for fear of punishment by the insur-
gent leaders after they had secured
control.

Joined the insurgents. The Filipinos
have always been peaceful, but there
have been more or less bandits in the
mountains. Prior to 1896 the Spaniards
had only between 700 and $500 men in
the whole archipelago. In addition they
had to have 5000 to 5000 natives. many
of whom deserted and joined Aguinal-
dos forces. The Spaniards, after 1896.
, increased their force to about $4,000

l met with jeers and rebuffs, and when l he begged the meanest position from i the Bishop of Spiress his application
 was rejected with scorn.
 After the disastrous defeat of Collo- 1 den Bonnie Prince Charlie" pretender 1 to the throne of England, was reduced 1 to the lowest depths of Restitution. For months he wandered among the hills on foot or cruised among the west ern islands picking up where he could find the barest subsistence.
 | For a month barren Benbeenea" sheltered him. He herded with friendly free booters and disguised himself in
 woman's clothes. His last days were l spent in Florence, "a drunken wreck, destitute and deserted by all but one afithful woman who owed her birth to him."
 One of the greatest of the German emperors recalled to his last day the terrible time when, as a child, he and his mother and brother were ''vagrants in eastern Prussia, friendess wander CTS in a strange land, glad to find a bed under the canopy of heaven, and to stay the gnawings of hunger by few C fields"
 This pathetic story has parallel in the history of Adelaide, Queen of Italy when she escaped from Pavia and tramped through long, weary nights, accompanied by one faithful servant, to the friendly refuge offered her by the archbishop of Reggie. Concealing themselves by day and wandering by night, begging their bread from kindly villagers, this strange couple reached safety after unexampled privations and humiliations.
 But one of the strangest of these sto ries is trat of the queen of Charles l., who was at one time reduced to such poverty that she and her daughter had to stay in bed to keep themselves warm for want of few pence with which to buy coal.
 In comparison with such straits as these the fates of recent exiled kings are almost those of luxury. When Prempeh exchanged the crown of Ashanti for apartments in Sierra Le- one," provided at our expense, he would, no doubt. miss much of his for mer royal state, but he had at least comfortable rooms, and a regal allow ance of about seven shillings day for pocket money; and the late King of Be- min confessed himself not unhappy when he had to maintain his regal state in Calabar on an allowance of three pounds and ten shillings week, out of which he had to provide his own pock- ct money.-Tit-B Bits.
