FOUGHT WITH THIEVES.
Citizens of nm Indiana Town Battle
with Safe-BlOwers-Lntte Es-
cape with Little Plumber.

Frankfort, Ind, April s.-Burglars
at Michigantown, east of this city,
early Sunday morning, wrecked the
safe in brick building occupied by c.
A. Marshall, merchant, and after a
desperate running battle with citizens,
in which Marshall was slightly
wounded and one of the robbers prob
ably fatally shot, escaped with small
amount OF bootys The safe contained
several hundred dollars in cash and
many valuable papers, and all was
practically destroyed by the force of
the explosion. The big steel vault was
blown out and across the room, and n
drawer containing a package of bank
bills was blown in an opposite drec-
ton and the bills torn into a thousand
pieces. 1t is not thought the robbers
succeeded in getting to exceed $50 in
cash, the other money being so de-
stroyed that it could not be found or
taken. The property damage to the
safe, building and goods will prob
ably reach $4,000.

PHILIPPINE GOVERNMENT.
and Appreciate the Ameri-
can Policy.

The Philippines have fairly entered
on "a new era In their history. Civil
government is displacing martial rule
throughout the group. This has al
ready been consummated on many or
the islands. Municipal and provincial
governments have been established
and are in satisfactory working order.
In them the native element is not over
looked. Capable and influential Fill
pinos are being placed In position or
trust and authority. The Taft COM
mission is having a busy time of il, but
a marked improvement in the general
situation Is the result of the change.
The natives are beginning to under
stand the policy of the United States
and that il means to deal fairly with
them. They realize now that they are
to have hand in the management OF
their own affairs, subject, OF course, to
the jurisdiction of the general govern
ment.
Most of the civil governments so far
established are of an experimental or
der. When the people learn the true
value of civil government more per-
feet systems will doubtless be substi-
tuted. But the civil organization in
each community and municipality has
been based on the elective plan and the
rule of the majority The method has
been crude, but it is the only one which
the natiyes~are now capable. OF under
standing VCapdidates for the head OF
the government and for chief clerk
have been stationed apart at the place
of election, and those around whom
the larger number of native support
ers grouped were declared elected
The result of this simple form OF pop
ular election has been gracefully ac-
cepted. Later on when the natives
learn the value and uses Of the ballot,
it will be undoubtedly introduced as
substitute for this primitive form OF
town election. Hitherto these people
have known only the tyranny of the
military rule which Spain maintained
and which we were forced to continue
until peace prevailed. Now the ma
tives are comprehending that the exer-
else of the functions of free people
rests with themselves and as an ac-
acknowledgement of it they are abandon
ing the warpath, laying down their
arms, swearing allegiance to the Unit
ed States and taking the first steps to-
ward the self-government which they
have so long coveted.-San Francisco
Chronicle.

WITH THE BIRDS.

Long years ago. one sunny day
Alas, how dim and far away
That bright day now appears
Companionless and lonely l.
For pastime, watched the clouds go by,
AS since have gone the years.
I wandered where the brook leaped down
Ats rocky channel BY the town
In foamy, ceaseless flow;
i saw wild pigeons rise and fly,
Like arrows, cleaving the bright sky,
Shot from an archer's bow.
heard the wood doves plaintive note,
As softly, from her FURNISHED throat.
1t melted on the breeze:
heard the plover's joy-notes ring
Across the pasture. quavering,
And die among the trees.
Two little wrens were building near
Their downy nest, where every year
They came to build and sing;
They seemed to love the spot. and there,
Their tender song. soft as a prayer,
Breathed welcome to the spring.
The morning long watched them weave,
With patient care. beneath the cave,
Their soft and downy home;
i heard them sing their tender lay.
Their song of hope, that some near day
Nestlings would to It come.
And see now. what then saw
But vaguely, that one common law
Rules birds as we'll as men;
And glowing warm In every breast
rs that home-love, the first and best
Which bids us build the dear home nest.
AS doth the little wren.

TRAITORS AND EDWARDS.
mAnti-ImperinIists" Continue Their
Trencherous Utterances Against

The capture OF Aguinaldo has not
lessened the treason OF the "anti-im-
perialists" of the United States, all or
whom are still urging the Filipinos to
continue their warfare. "Chawley"
Towne says: "The Filipinos will con-
tinue to fight" and that "Funston's
raid is the outcome of treachery and
shame to America" "Chawley" is
great on noise, but he is cowardly. like
all the other "anti-imperialists who
have induced the Filipinos to continue
their war against the United States
for ~ years after peace would have
otherwise been declared. Secretary
Irving Winslow, of the 'anti-imperial-
list league, urges that there may be
20 other leaders in hiding as capable as
Aguinaldo;" George S. Boutwell,, presi-
dent of the same league, refuses to
discuss the capture of Aguinaldo;
Edward Atkinson has also lost his
reasonable grip and says that the adj
ministration now has an elephant on
its hands," Sixto Lopez insists that
"the capture of Agunilado does not
necessarily end the war; and BILLY
