THLLITTLE FILIPINOS
Peculiarities of the People Under
 Aguinaldo.
Odd Experiences of Uncle Sam's SoI- diers with the Willy Natives of L1zon-'Their Style of
 FightinGs

This little black man who is causing us the same kind of trouble that the boy experiences with hornets nest cannot be understood in a day. When captured he acts as If his lot had fallen among sld friends. He grins and points beyond our slGrmishers, seeming to think that the aspect of his fleeing court trymen is d huge joke. The next min ute, but give him the chance, he is likely to send bullet into an Americans back. For such an offense Maj. Gen. Anderson once had Filipino strung iip 10 tree on the spot, th,s being the cnIy American military execution thus far recorded in the Philippines.
 A giant private Of he Montanas chose different method. When he was fired on al distance of about ten yar;s and missed. he caught his enemy, took his gun away from him and then laid him across his knees. After he had rigor- ously applied piece of bamboo he seized the enemy by the seat of the trousers and threw him toward the rear.
 ".fherei" he said Don't YOU let me catch you playing with firearms again."
 The little black mans confidence in the European rife las waned. In the beginning he thought that he had only 10 discharge his mauser at white man and the white man was dead. This led to the firing from the houses and the reckless chances which the Filipinos took at first when their losses were so great. Now they apparently are good after they are captured, and they do not fire from houses. Mcst Of whatever their leaders l.Iow of mil.tary practice they have learned from the spaniards. They are as facile in imitation as the Chinese. Their buglcrs now do our calls as well as their own. By watching us

OF THE ROYAL SAVAGE
oid Wreck of the Schooner In Lake ChGmrlsin Is searehed by
 Divers.
Perfect, Delicious, Appetizing.

Recent recovery by a Chicago diver of various relics from the wreck of the schooner Royal Savage, in Lake Champlain, south of Valcour island, is 2 reminder that the beautiful lake was scene of naval warfare long before Commodore MacDonough won his famous victory on it's waters in August. 1874, says the Buffalo Com mercial
 The Royal Savage dates back to 1776, and belonged to an expedition under command of Benedict Arnold. After an attack by the British she was grounded and abandoned by her crew. Then the boat was set on fire by the enemy and sunk The hull is still i'm tact, but no one supposed that it con- tained any relics of value, until the diver the other day brought to the surface several gun carriages, large number of ten-pound solid shot, grape shot. buttons from officers uniforms and other articles.
 Benedict Arnold's private papers were lost at the time of the engage nent, and it is possible they may still exist somewhere in the wreck of the old ship. Should they be recovered they might prove very peculiar con- tribution to revolutionary history. especially if they should tend to show that Arnold was even then plotting to betray his country
 The enterprising diver. however. app pears to have struck snag. The wreck lies in New York waters. and the United States officials at Platts- burg have been after him on charge of violating section 5.35s of the revised statutes of the United States, which provide for the punishment of every person who "plunders. steals or de stroys any money, goods, merchandise or other effects from or belonging to any vessel in distress, or wrecked, lost or stranded, or cast away, upon the sea or in any other place within the admiralty or maritime jurisdiction of the United States"
 He got out of range temporarily by : moving his boat into Vermont wa ters. He claims, however, that the law has not been violated, as the wreck of the Royal Savage has never been reclaimed by the American govern ment, and though it lies in American waters it long ago became public prop erty. In any event, the government might well make an exception in this case and allow the explorations to pro- ceed.

Larceny by MT. scrugss.

MT. Scruggs is large gentleman possessing great dignity, partly nat ural and partly gained through much experience as presiding officer in countless financial and charitable or ganizations.
 One sweltering summer day, as he dropped into his seat in the afternoon train which was to carry him down to his country place, he noticed with much displeasure that immediately behind him was the inevitable tired mother with the usual very small children. But the youngsters were quiet, and the motion of the car soon had it's effect. Mir. scrugg's chin sank upon his breast, and he slept.
 Suddenly he became acutely con scious that something warm and sticky had been violently inserted be- tween his collar and the back of his neck. He lurched indignantly to his feet, just as shrill voice exclaimed, with great distinctness: "0h, ma, 1 that mans got my gum-drop!"- Harper's Magazine

Inxention of the Fan

The following Chinese legend ac- counts for the invention of the fan in rather ingenious fashion: The beau tiful Kan-Si, daughter of a powerful mandarin, was assisting at the feast of lanterns, when she became over powered by the heat and was com pelled to take off her mask. As it was against all rule and custom to expose her face, she held her mask before it and gently futtered it to cool her self. The court ladies present noticed the movement. and in an instant 100 of them were waving their masks. From this incident, it is said, came the birth of the fan, and to-day it takes the place of the mask in that country.

Making Law. During the Night.

There is very marked difference in the working methods of the United States congress and the British par liament which strike the visitor from one country to the other. Some of the. things that seem peculiar to the American is the absence of clerks in the British assembly and the practice of members in wearing hats during the session. Some recent proposals that the hour of converting the Brit ish parliament be changed call atten- ton to the striking difference between the working methods of that body and our own congress. Parliamentary ses- sions begin late and last far into the night. The parliamentary hours, in deed, have undergone a good many changes and it is only 12 years since radical change was made in them the house meeting at three instead of four, and adjourning, nominally. at 12 instead of at some hour in the norm ing.-Chicago Chronicle.

they found out that they have been firing too high, and now they are try ing 10 fire low. They succeed until the volleys from our slsirmish line begin to pour in. Then they criEge too much in their trenches to aim on Il level. Their trenches tof the Spanish type) are built under cover, at strategic points. which admit Of easy defense and, etreaf, with the smallest possible exposure, once the Americans advance. On a wall above the line of one insurgent trench were i6 abgasu-es by bullets in space two feet by ore.
 Such music as was played there is tlisconcerting. The little black man will not remain 10 hear it after our men are within 2C8 yards. At running he is easily the Americans superior. His bare feet never get sore. He has no clothing to impede his progress except cotton shirt and trousers. He knows the bypaths and the lords of the streams. But he feels that it is very un- fair of us to make him retreat We are not practicing warfare as he un- derstands it at all. What is the use of rifles that will shoot 2.5O0 yards if you are going to try to catch the enemy with your hands?
 Aguinaldo's officers are highly in eeTsed about our artillery, it is said. If they have no guns we ought to use none, and if they have three or four or five, we ought 10 use only three or four or fire, as the case may be. What has happened, however, was to have been expected after we refused to fire back and forth between trenches in the moonlight. which is the only kind and generous method of making war in the tropics.

FRANCE THE TEUTONiC.

Parts OF the Republic Are as Much
German as the FatherIand.
The northern third of France and
half Of Belgium are today more Teu-
tcuic than the south of Germany. This
should not occasion surprise when we
remember the incessant downpour Of
Teutonic tribes during the whole his
toric period. It vas a constant pro.
cession Of Goths from all points of the
coopasS - Franks. Rnrgundians and
others.
France was entirely overrun by the
Franks, with the exception Of Brittany.
By the middle Of the sixth century. All
through the middle ages this part Of
France was German in language and
customs as we'll. The very name Of
the country Is Teutonic. 1t has the
same origin as Franconia, in southern
Germany. In S12 the council of Tours,
away down south. ordained that every
bishop should preach both in the Ro-
manic and the Teutonic languages.
The Franks reserved their German
speech 400 years after the conquest.
Charlemagne was a German. His
courtiers were all Germans. He lived
and governed from outside the limits
Of modern France. The Able Sieyes
uttered an chronological truisin when.
in the course of the French revolution,
he cried out against the French aris-
tocracy, LET us send them back to
their German marshes whence they
Express.
