A Wonderful Offer to Women.

We have received word of most remark.
able offer which is to be made to women by
The Deiineator, of New York.
Taking the fact that next year begins Q
new century, The Delineator offers TO dstri-
butte $l7,50O among 1901 women. The plan
is so cleverly arranged that . woman living in
small town or village, has just - good .
chance to win one of these 1901 prizes ~ .
woman living in q city-becauss the prizes
are given for the number of subscriptions
secured in town in proportion to the popu-
lation Of that town, instead of being given
simply to those who send the largest list Of
ubscribers-which, Of course, are most easily
obtained in big cities Another clever feature
of the plan is, that all the cities and towns of
the United States and Canada have been ar
ranged in seven classes. The cities Of the
greatest population are grouped in Class /,
and as these cities are not very many, the
prizes offered are twenty eight; the high
est prize being $500, and the lowest S.. 90.
The total amount of prizes given away in this
class is s 900. The remaining smaller towns
and villages fall into six other classes, and as
the number of towns in . class increases, be-
cause, of course, there are more small towns
than large ones, the amount of prizes given
away TO class increases, 80 that in Cass I,
there will be $4,000 distributed among col
winners. ..,t
Furthermore, to everyone who fails TO win
one of the 1901 prizes there will b paid an
extra commission on subscriptions, provided
they equal one out of every two hundred in.
habitants Of the town from which the con.
tesr,nt sends them.
This is altogether a very liberal offer, and
enc which the famous old Delineasor 10 we'll
able to make good. From our point Of view,
we do not see why such an offer needs to bs
made by the Publishers of The Delnsator, for
we believe it already has nearly half million
subscribers Its strong hold upon the afec-
tions of American women has come In the
past generation, from its practical advice
about dress details and home matters.

All this is interesting, but the most
important fact is yet to be stated.
There is a cleanliness movement
on in Buenos Ayres, and it is said
to be a great success. The men in
charge of the city are men of in

CONDITIONS ON ISLAND OF PANAY.
The People VIII Not Resist the Americans.


dated February IIih, says: The
large island of Panay, of which
Iloilo is the chief port, has been
one of the most vexatiOus hotbeds
of insurrection and resistance to
the American regime in the whole
archipelago, and the announce
ment that its pacification has now
been practically accomplished was
one of the most gratifying mes
sages received by the War De-
partment last week. The Ttbune
has Just received from an officer
on duty in Panay an interesting
letter, written just before Christ
mas, giving an account of the
achievement, which is one of the
absorbing topics throughout the
Philippines, especially as the lead
of Panay is apt to be promptly
followed by the other islands. He
says, in part:
Most of the officers on duty
Throughout the Fourth District,
Department of the Visayas, have
had little or no sympathy with
anything relating to Civil Govern
ment. They believed the time
was not ripe for it, and that mill
tary administration was all that
the circumstances demanded or
justified.
Although this spirit was thor
oughly understood at district head
quarters, and fully taken account
of, nevertheless the district COM
mander Colonel Edmund Rice,
Twenty-six Infantry, U. S. ",
insisted on his policy being carried
out of combining as much as pos
sible the civil and the military.
Month after month the work went
on, everything possible being done
to get the officers interested in the
civil work, and to inform the
natives of their privileges and op-
portunities. Time and time again
elections were ordered to be held
in certain of the pueblos, only to
get the report of mo one here
cares to take the necessary oath
of allegiance to the United States
Government" But despite this
many of the prominent men were
being talked to and argued with,
were being furnished with season
able and instructive literature, and
no opportunity was allowed to
pass for accomplishing the desired
object.
On October goth, 1900, the com
manding officer of the Circle of
Jaro reported that not even the
three residents necessary to act
as election judges were obtaina-
BILE" On November 10th the Dis
trict Commander wrote:
II have the honor to request
that authority be given to call on
the inhabitants of the towns of
Jaro and Molo and take the oath
of allegiance to the United States,
believing that the time is now
ripe for insisting that they should
come out openly either for or
against our government.
1t is matter of common knowl-
edge that these two pueblos exer-
cised large, if not paramount in
fluence upon the others of this
island, and if this is the case the
resulting effect of this operation
must be far-reachiug and benefic-
ial to the carrying out of the gen
eral policy of the Administration"

Norfolk, Neb., Oct. 3l.--Chris Dnerr,
q farmer living five miles north OF
this city, shot and killed George Fet-
terley, who is said to be a cattle
buyer. Duerr says Fetterley and a
companion were leaving his barn at
one o'clock yesterday morning with a
load of harness. Ducrr says he tried
to stop the men, when Feiterley fired
at him. Duerr returned the fire, fill
ing Fetterley's head with shot. Fet-
terley's companion says they were
getting a drink when the shooting
took place. Considerable mystery
surrounds the affair. Duerr gave
himself up.
