MORE SURRENDERs.
PaciHcatiOn of Philippines Proceed
ing Rapidly.

| PacfflcatiOn of Philippines Proceed.
ing Rapidly.
Almost daily reports are received in
Manila of surrenders of small bodies OF
Insurgents in various parts Of the Phil
ippines.
Colonel Francisco Aba, the insurgent
leader of Zambales province, with Ia
officers, SO men and rifles, surrendered
to Lieutenant Colonel Mancil G. Good
rell, commanding the marines station
ed at Olongapo, on Subig bay. General
Malvar, with about 800 men and as
many rifles, is expected to surrender
shortly at Slang, in Cavite province.
A dispatch from Iloilo, island of Pa
nay, says that General Martin Delga-
do, the chief insurgent commander in
the island of Panay until his surrender
in January, has been appointed gov
ernor of the province of Iloilo, just Gre
ated by the United States Philippine
commission.
The chief of staff of the insurgent
general Mascardo has surrendered at
the town of Marivales, in Bataan prov
ince, Luzon. He said that Mascardo's
band of followers, now greatly dimin-
ished, are in bad way. 1t is impossi-
BILE for them to elude the Americans,
they are unable to obtain food and
want to surrender. 1t is expected that
General Mascardo himself will surren-
der shortly.
1t is intimated that an official an
nouncement regarding the disposition
of Aguinaldo will soon be made.
Sissons band of outlaws made a
night attack on Norzagaray, Bulacan
province, and succeeded in burning a
part of the town.
The First and Second military dis
tricts of the department of northern Lu-
zon have been consolidated and placed
under command of Brigadier General
Funston. Similar action as been taken
with regard to the Fourth and Fifth
districts of southern LuZon, and Gen
eral Sumner has been placed in charge
This action has allowed the relief Of
Generals Grant and Hall respectively
and is one of the results of the pacified
conditions of these districts 1t is ex-
pected that further consolidation will
be made at an early date.
Judge Taft, president of the Philip
pine commission, who is now at Cebu
says that Mgr Chapelle, the papal del
egate to the Philippine Islands, told
him the friars were not to return to
the provinces and that only a sufficient
number of them were now in Manila
to act as instructors in the college.
This disposes of the troublesome 'friar
question"
Lieutenant William S. Mapes of the
Thirty second volunteer infantry has
captured bearer of dispatches from
the insurgent general Noriel to General
Malvar. Noriel directed Malvar not
to surrender, saying he would send him
1000 recruits, money and ammunition
when Aguinaldo was released. Noriel
succeeded Trias in southern Luzon.
A thousand troops in the island of
Cebu are unable to accomplish the sur
render or capture of the POO insurgent
rifemen who still are out. Colonel Nc
Clernand says the terms offered by the
insurgents are impossible.

 Behind this change in form and fea- ture is always disease. and generally dis ease which affects the wonian1y organ ism. The backache and bearing down pains put heavy strain on the nervous system. There is loss of sleep, lack of appetite, and, as natural result, loss of strength and flesh.

St. Clair County Official Charg- ed With Murder of Wal
 ter Blankenshlp
TROOPS GO TO ASHvILLE
Fifty Men Called Out From 6lrmlng. ham companles--Wlll Leave This Morning Under Command
 of Captain Ledbetter.

Fifty members of Birmingham compa- nies of the Alabama National Guard have been ordered to go to Ashville this morn ing, to be present at the preliminary trial of Sheriff North. The sheriff is charged with the murder of Walter Blankenship, and 1t is feared that there may be trouble during the trial.
 The decision to send soldiers to Ashville was reached yesterday by Governor Jeiks An order was issued to Colonel Higdon for fifty members of the Birmingham Rifles and Jefferson Volunteers. and Col onel Higdon in turn issued an order last night instructing the commanding officers of each of the companies to assemble twenty-five men for the trip.
 The men will be under command of Captain Ledbetter. Colonel Higdon will accompany the men. but will not be in direct command. They will leave Bir- mingham on the Alabama Great Southern train at 5:45 o'clock this morning, re- turning tonight, after the trial.
 How Trouble Started.
 The charge of murder was instituted against Sheriff North shortly after the attempt to lynch Jim Brown. At the time the sheriff and his deputies were forced to fire into the mob which had surrounded the court house and which was trying to secure the prisoner.
 Young Walter Blankenship was killed and his brother and a little boy wounded Shortly after the burial of the young man warrants were issued for Shrein North on the charge of murder. His trial was set for today in the same court house from which the fatal shots were fired.
 The entire trouble originated from the committing of an atrocious assault upon pretty young girl of Springville by Jim Brown. The negro at first escaped but was later caught. He was brought tc Birmingham, where he was safely jailed Before the time for the trial and while an att empt was being made to he.e the trial held In Birmingham. the. r6ople of St. Clair County pledged thcir honor that he should have a fair trial
 Attempted tc lynch Brown.
 The presidj''s judge of the Circuit Court refused to have troops at the trial. When thy day was reached Sheriff North deputized a number of men to assist -s n in keeping order. These men were armed After the trial and while the negro was being held In the court house a mob was formed outside and an attempt was made to lynch the negro. In this attempt the white men were shot The trial today promises to be very in- teresting. A strong attempt will be made to convict the official. If this is not &C., complished 1t is feared trouble will re- suit, as much feeling against MT. North exists in the county.
