Arrival ut the Camp.

Captain Hazard drew plan of the rebel
leaders camp, showing the Palanan river.
The town plaza was nearly triangular, it's
southern corner fitting curve of the river.
In this corner Agunaldo's house,
while the opposite corners were the
officers quarters and soldiers barracks, re-
spectively. Between them ran streets to
the outskirts of .he town. Indicating with
his pencil Captain Hazard described the
arrival and subsequent events
THE MacabebeS under Hilario Placido,'
he said, with the others commanding sec
lions, crossed the river in boats, leaving
three for the Americans and their guard
behind. The crossing made east of
AguinaldO's house and the men marched
across the plaza to the quarters where the
Tagalog body guard paraded at the
northeastern corner of the triangle. Here
they broke into sections, one stringing from
the Quartet to the bandstand in the center
of the plaza. another hating on the body
guards flank and in front of the officers
quarters in the northwest corner of the
plaza and the other going over to Aguinal-
dos house.

remained, to relieve the other guard, that
they might enter Palanan with the rest.
We therefore hid in the grass until they
had passed and then continued the jour-
ney, knowing that we should reach Pala

A Good Story on Sousa

According to the Saturday Evening
Post, Mr.. Sousa, the march king,
wears his uniform at all times ant
seasons. He compe|s his men to d(
likewise. The fact that he does SC
leads to experiences that are very
laughable to him. Mr.. Sousa was
standing in large b1ildIng in Phila
delphia, waiting for the elevator. A
man came up 10 him rapidly and said
What is the lumber Of Mr.. Blanks
ofiica y
Il don t know said the short man
in the blue uniform.
We'll, isn't be in this builIing p ark
ed the man.
Il don't know, answered Mr.. Scusa.
Well. don't you know anything p
said the man. If knew any one here
| would report YOU
At which Mr. Sousa shouted with
laughter, and the man, catching sight
Of the genuine elevator boy, saw he
had somehow made mistake.
Again, Mr.. Sousa was standing in a
railway station, OF the platform,
waiting for train. A belated trav-
eler ran up to him and shouted: Has
the sos train pulled out.
Il really don t know answered the
man with tue blue inform.
We'll, why don t you know?' shout
ed the irate traveller. What are You
standing here for like long OF wos G :?
Aren't you conductor
Yes, said yr. Sou4a, ! am a con-
ductor.'
"A nice sort of conductor you are !
exclaimed the Traveller.
well. you see,' said Mr.. Souse, y
am not the conductor Of a traiL; am
the conductor of brass band.''
