easy, Aguinaldo, late chief Of the
insurgent forces in the islands,
has permitted himself to be per-
suaded that peace is desirable for
the people of the Philippines. He
acknowledges that peace is the
choice of a majority of his fellow
countrymen, who have taken the
oath OF allegiance to the united

in their belief that under the stars

will attain all those promised lib.
critics which they are beginning to
enjoy" He therefore acknow-
lodges the sovereignty of the
United States, throughout the
Philippine archipelago which with
the hope that his action will bring
happiness to the people thereof.

These highway" women, as they may be called are Marie Taraye, aged twenty-six and Leonte Pi- let, aged thirty-two. Late one night re- gently they waylaid respectable trades man named Bousson, on the Menilmon- tant Boulevard, a desolate locally, near the Great Northern Cemetry. M. Bous- son was quickly walking toward home when the two women went up to him, and brandishing long knives before his eyes, exclaimed, Your money or your lfe!" The tradesman, seeing that he had to deal with serious although female, bandits. deemed 1t prudent to give up his purse, which contained 4Of in gold and silver. He was then allowed to go on his way. and beofre he reached home he met some policemen, to whom he re- lated his ugly adventure with the bri- gands in petticoats The policemen lost no time in reporting the affair, and hunt was speedily organized throughout the district. The result of this was that the two highwaywomen were round in a tavern ordering an abundant supper. in which oysters and sauterne predomin- ated. Taraye and Pilet admitted their guilt and are new at the Central Police Station among the latest collection of criminal waifs and strays hauled In by the police.

From all sides and from every line of
 business, favorable reports are received.
 Particularly is this true of building, and
 in this day of modernt appliances, every
 building is equipped with the newest and
 most approved electric lights and elec-
 trical power. In this line, The West
 Electric Co.,, No. IF North Perry St., do
 a large and growing business. Several
 times within the past few years increased
 business has compelled MT. West to seek
 larger quarters, until last Fall they nov
 ed into their present commodious place,
 where they have ample room to carry
 large stock of goods, attractively dis
 played; and attached thereto is their
 thoroughly equipped repair department.
 where competent workmen are employed,
 and only first-class repair work is exc
 cuted. The splendid reputation of The West Electric Co. is not confined to Montgom- cry. The quality of work done by this concern Is fast earning a reputation for them all over Alabama and far into ad- | joining States. They have recently com pleted a large contract with the United | States Government for equipping sFt.
 Pickens, Fla, with electric lights. They | were recently awarded a contract for | equipping Unity Cotton Mills. at La- | Grange, Ga., with 600 incandescent lights. | They have also just received contract
 for building and equipping a new electric lighting plant at Wetumpka. Ala, and for | the third successive time have been | awarded the contract by the Board of | Directors to furnish all the electric H.
 illumination for the Montgomery Free Fall | Festival, to be held here commencing one | week from today. The electrical illumin- | ations of the Street Fair year before last | and last year were In a large degree re- | sponsible for the tremendous success l scored by the Street Fairs, and MT. West promises still more striking effects this year.
 The West Electric Go. make a speciality of window lights for stores. The show | windows of The Capitol Clothing Store, Alex Rice and Nachman & Meertief were | each supplied by them, and the lights and material used were manufactured by I. F. Brink of New York City. The | electrical work of these windows does | great credit to the contractors, and are | thoroughly up to what would be seen in | any Eastern cities.

 Western Connecticut can produce no more interesting individual than Henry Jeffrey, who is we'll known all over the State, and who is now engaged in assist ing his hive of educated bees Tn thelr task of constructing comb or money or huge dimensions for exhibition al the Pan-American Exposition. on which the State coat-of-arms will have been in geniously worked by the bees Tn queS- tion. The process of constructlon IS In accordance with an original idea or Jef- rey's and involves constant watcnlng on his part to see that the busy workers carry out his instructions to the nerest details. Jeffrey is remarkably well post cd everything that pertains 10 pee culture; he is also well informed on nor :, ticultural matters, and Is proIound student of insect life. His eccentrlcity lies in his habits of life. He loves his bees and is their inseparable companion, night and day His apiary is located Tn a secluded spot east of Main Street. All day long he finds employment about ms numerous hives, and when darkness set ties down upon the earth ne iays nm l self down in a hole dug in the side or the sandy hill and sleeps the sleep or the CCntented.
