ACuINALDO
CAPTURED.
The Filipino Leader Falls into
Il Trap and Is Taken to
Manila by General
Funston.

A telegram from Manila dated
March %, announces the capture
Of Aguinaldo, who had been
brought a prisoner to the city.
The dispatch gives the following
account Of the ruse adopted by
Gen. Funston to capture the
slick Filipino:
Some months ago letters were cap
tured by the Americans showing be-
yond peradventure that the rebel lead
er was hiding in the northeastern part
of the island. Gen. Funston immedi-
ately conceived his bold plan to cap
ture him, which received Gen. Mac
Arthur's approval. Two weeks age
he started from Manila with Surgeon
Maj. Harris, Capt. Newton of the
Thirty infantry, Lieut.. Admire
Of the Twenty second infantry, Lieut..
Mitchell of the Fortieth infantry, six
veteran Americans and number Of
native scouts, all of whom were Sc
lected for their bravery and extensive
knowledge of the country.
Gen. Funston's plan was that after
he and his party had landed as near as
possible to the place where Auinaldo
was thought to be hiding, the native
scouts were to pass themselves off as
insurgents, who having captured Gen.
| Funston and the other Americans,
were conveying them to Aguinaldo-
When the supposed prisoners were
brought by their alleged captors be-
fore Aguinaldo they were to suddenly
appear in their true character, seize
the willy Filipino and make their way
back to the coast, where the gunboat
Vicksburg, which had conveyed the
party, was to await their return.
1t will readily be seen that the ad-
venture was desperate one, as
treachery was always possible, and
Gen. Funston had no absolute means
of knowing how many men Aguinaldo
had with him. 1t was possible that he
would have enough to overwhelm the
Americans and their native allies, but
this did not deter them for an instant.
They accepted the risk, with the result
that Aguinaldo is now. safe in the
hands of the American military
| authorities in Manila.

The lecture on Wendell Phil
lips given at the Congregational
church last Tuesday evening was
a classic, and the speaker, Rev
H. p. Fisher, presented in most
effective and eloquent language
the character and personality Of
the great anti-slavery orator and
agitator, and the work he was
called upon to pei form, and
which he SO unseltishly accom-
plished in the face of seemingly
insnrmountable opposition. The
lecturer, as an illustration of
Phillips wonderful resource. Of
language, gave copious extract
from his great lecture on Daniel
O'Connell, and quoted many Of
the epigrams which fell from his
lips in his platform dennnciations
of slavery, but asserted that his
claim to true greatness rested
not so much on his matchless elo-
quence as upon the grandeur OF
his character as displayed in his
wing fidelity to truth and
righteousness and fearless de-
nunciation Of wrong. The lee
ture ought to be an inspiration to
any young man who listened to it.

We have received a California
paper from S. p. Shorrocks Civ
ing an account of a "blossom
fete' held at Saratoga, Cal,
where Mr.. Shorrocks is now liv-
ing The paper speaks of the
affair as follows:
The blossom festival at Saratoga
yesterday was a specially delightful
occasion to the many who were enter
tanned by the hospitable people of that
favored section. While unfortunately
few days too early to get the full
glory of the blooming orchards, those
who thus visited this unrivaled fruit
region for the first time in the blossom
season must have thought they had
suddenly dropped into corner OF
Eden. 1t would be impossible to find
the wide world over more altogether
delightful region than the foothills of
the Santa Clara Valley, with their
millions of fruit trees, their other mil
lions Of vines, their live oaks and syc-
amores, their rolling hills and ver-
dant canyons, down which flow in
noisy haste the cool waters of noun
tain streams, their glorious vistas OF
mountain and valley, and above all
their warm sun and clear atmosphere.
If any one tired OF the struggle of life
and seeking a place to end his Qays
in peace and comfort amidst the beau
ties of nature should once come within
the charm of this blossom land he
would end hisquest and seek no further.
