AGUINALDo,s BODY GUARD.
Mai. AIhambrn, Two Captains, Two
Lieutenants and 20 Men Have
surrendered.

Manila, Sept. 23.-Aguinaldo's body
guard, Maj. Alhambra, two captains,
two lieutenants and 20 men, with %
rifles, surrendered about 40 miles
north of Baler, Island of LuzOn, to
Capt. George A. Detchmendy, of the
22d United States infantry. Saturday,
took the oath of allegiance and were
released.
Since Aguinaldo left Gen. Mac
Arthur's house for his present place
of confinement he has never left the
premises, although he is at liberty to
do so if accompanied by an officer
The reason assigned is that he fears
assassination at the hands of the
partisans of the late Gen. Luna.
Gen. Chaffee has refused the re-
quest for the release of the prison
ers in the Island of Guam. He con-
siders that their release would not
be safe until the surrender or cap
ture of Malvar and Lukban.
Capt. Detchmendy reports that he
has recovered a portion of the body
of Denzell George Arthur Venville,
the Inflated apprentice of the United
States gunboat Yorktown, who was
one of Lieut.. Gilmore's party when
that officer was captured by the
Filipinos in April, 1899. The remains
will be forwarded to Manila for ship
nent home.

been in the hospital suffering from

the old lady said, emphatically. 'It's

proudly: Mother is first cousin to

it she wished she hadn't; it looked
like an obvious attempt to gain a
point socially. Mrs. Dillingham; re-

She was vexed with herself now for
mentioning the fact, and her vexation
was increased by remembering an
other fact, that during all her fathers
financial reverses the Radcliffs had
coldly refused to help, and had been
to some extent responsible for her
fathers final losses. She could have
bitten her tongue at the thought of
her silly eagerness to let this old lady
know that she was somebody.
Mrs. Dillingham; was looking at her
with the greatest possible respect.
Evidently the first cousinship and the

CONDITIONS IN PORTO RICO.
An Interesting Lecture by the Rev.
James Van Buren.

An interesting address on Porto Rico,
illustrated by a large number Of beau
tiful stcreopticun views, WAS delivered
last night by the Rev. James Van
Buren at Trinity Parish Hall, corner Of
Third Street and Indiana Avenue. Mr..
Van Buren is a well-known Massachu-
sets clergyman, recently appointed for
missionary work in Porto Rico.
In the course Of his lecture the speaker
described the natural beauties of Porto
Rico. He said that no words of mind
can picture the beauty of san Juan He
spoke at some length Of the American
public school system being installed in
Porto Rico. Mr. Van Burcu states the
Government is eXpending $4,000. which
will educate nearly $1,000 children. He
also referred to the change in the sani-
tary condition in the cities effected by
the American authorities.
Mr.. Van Buren Sugge Sted the employ
ment of intelligent young men of Porto
Rico as lay readers, under proper safe
guard, and possibly Of Porto Rican
women as Bible teachers. After a while
Mr.. Van Buren believes IL will be found
that courge of systematic divinity
would prepare some OF them for deacons'
orders. He continued:
we plan to organize mission schools
in the rural districts Of Porto Rico as
fast as our means will allow In San
Juan II Is hoped to make the church the
centre of mission work for the entire
island. The church is fast becoming self.
