People often wonder how the natives
in Africa contrive to transmit news with
apparently miraculous rapidity across
miles of bush and desert The explana-
tion is simple one. They use the tele-
phone. The Soudanese telephone is moth
ing like the one in use in European coun-
tries. 1t is of two kinds-a followed
out elephant tusk of immense size or a
tam-tam. The tusk can be made to
transmit seven notes, by means of a slice
of tree bark. which is placed on the out
side of the tusk at varying distances
instrument sounds can be heard at a dis
lance of several miles, and messages are
frequently transmitted as much as 200
miles in a single day by these primitive
telephones.-LOndon Daily Mail

Although a story that came over the
cable that the first Shamrock defeated
the second Shamrock in one of the trial
spins on Saturday and Monday, was
quite promptly denied, the fact
that Capt. Sycamore of the new boat
has said that there has been no trial
between the boats and the same time has
ordered new mainsail to dispace sail
that has had only two days use indicates
that the second Shamrock isn't breaking
the records even in her home waters.

WAR IN THE PHILIPPINES.
American Imperialism Is Fast Catch"
ing Up with Spanish
Barbarian.

Some one was saying not long aso
that there was no war in the Philip
pines. Was it Mr.. Mckinley, or Gen.
Otis, or Secretary Root? At any rate,
the Taft commission before election
cabled over that if Bryan were
"licked'' "the remnant of insurrection
will disappear within 60 days, by sur
render of leaders and fading out of
rank and file" The 60 days are nearly
up. vet the other day Gen. Macarthur
issued in the Philippine islands a proc
lamation that had no more color of
peace in it than the fresh Boer invasion
of Cape Colony foreshadows the speedy
end of the South African war. Gen.
Macarthur, please observe, now warns
the Filipinos that thereafter strict
compliance with the laws of war will be
required of noncombatants, as well as
combatants." Laws of war! Then
there is war in the Philippines by ad-
mission of Gen. Macarthur. If there
is not, what right has he to make non
combatants conform almost at the end
of the 60 days period which was to
mark the utter disappearance of the
insurrection! Never was the mendacity
and hypocrisy Of a government more
quickly self-confessed than in this in
stance. Gen. MacArthur's proclama-
ton, as a whole, indicates that our
Philippine conquest is about to enter
upon a period of harshness and brutal
ity which will rival the British atrocf-
ties in South Africa. The election is
being accepted at Washington as a
mandate to conquer the Filipinos at
any cost. The remark of an English
man becomes timely: ALREADY Eng

Can the administration give any
