FOLLOWERS OF GEN. LUNA HAVE
SWORN VENGEANCE.
fSnsureent Chief Will Never He Safe
From Assassfnation in Manila
Unless Kept Under the Protection
of the AmericAms-Gen. Luna Was
Assaxsinated by Order of Axni-

Surrendered, II Appointed Die
'tatOr.

washington, April IA. - The report
that Aguinaldo fears assassination at
the hands of the late Gen. Luna's fol-
lowers explains to army officers the
reason why he has been kept at Gen.
MacArthur's palace.
Gen. Luna was one of the best in.
'surgent leaders who followed Aguinal-
90 into making war upon the Ameri-
cans. He was a bold and aggressive
fighter, but after the defeat at Malo-
las he reported to Aguinaldo that the
insurgents could not cope with the
Americans and they had better make
the best terms possible. Luna sent
delegation to Manila to discuss alters
with Gen. Otis and the Philippine COM
mission. After agreeing to this plan
Aguinaldo sent for Gen. Luna and had
him assassinated in his presence.
Army officers who were in the Phil
ippines say that the followers of Luna
have sworn vengeance on Aguinaldo.
and they do not believe the insurgent
chief will ever be safe from assassina-
ton in Manila or in that part of Luzon
unless he is kept under the protection
of the Americans. War department Of
ficials believe that Gen. Macarthur
will keep Aguinaldo a prisoner for
some time to come as much for his own
safety as to prevent him from starting
another instruction.

of Aguinaldo in Paris, received a cable

AS announced Monday, April s. in

surrendered to the American authori-
ties at Cabanatuan, in the province Of
New Ecija, Island of Luzon. 1t was
added that Sandico has a bad record

BRAIN.FOOD NONSENSE.

Another ridiculous food fad has been
branded by the most competent author
tiles. They have dispelled the silly no
ton that one kind OF food is needed for
brain, another for muscles and still
another for bones. A correct diet will
not only noursh a particular part Of
the body, but it will sustain every other
part. Yet, however good your food
may be, its nutriment is destroyed by
indigestion or dyspepsia. You must
prepare for their appearance or prevent
their coming by taking regular doses OF
