Con. Mao Arthuris confronted by the
fact that tho torn Of enlistmont for
most Of tho soldiers in tho Philippines
will expire on June 30th next, and. they
are nearly all eager to Quit the service.
ltTts 'truo the war ended yhar or so
ago, according to Gon. Oils, but then
a general doesn'tlike, to be that far
away from homo without an army, and
Gen. Macarthur knows that tho CO..
600 mon under his command have no
idea Of continuing in tho service beyond
tho tlme of thoir enlistment. Henoe
it is that he has recommended the of.
fering Of a bonus of $3.50 to eaoh man
who will re.enlist. AS the Augusta
Chronicle says "how could thero bo q

are being. wagod in the Philippines end

British arc offering $l.23 q day for
volunteers to subjugate tho Doors,
nearly four times the regular pay, and
Gen. Mao Arthur is proposing bounty
equal to nearly two years pay to in.

We cannot doubt that the mon ia

Britain as hor average SUBJECTS, or
that the mon in tho philippines pos.
soss courage and tho love Of country.

Then why are they about to lay down
their arms and rotiro from the war
when their aorvioos are still needed !?
In our judgment tho answer is to be
found in the fact that thoy are dis
guatod with tho war they are waging.
1t docs not have tho approve, Of their
oonscieDces or enlist thoir patriotism !;
but must have the appearance of oross-
ing, the ocean to subjugate people
with whom we hsvo nothing in oom-
mon, and who are brayely battling in
dofenae Of their native land to the beet
OF their ability and equipment. It is
natural that the gorge Of the Ameri.
can aoldior should rise against such
warfare, and that having unwittingly
gotten into it, he should hail with sat
isfaotion the expiration of his enlist
mont, and the chance to get out"

Serious as the present smallpox out
break has appeared at various times.
1t has not been without its numerous
features, though some Of the episodes
which have caused many smilos have
seemed anything but funny to tho
principal actors in them.
One physician in this. city had q.
slight scratch on his right thumb, and
while he was vaooinating a number Of
his patients just little Of tho virus
touched it unnoticed. He knew about
1t 48 hours lator. when it "took. 4: II he
has beon out of PRACTICE for week or,
two, he has at least the satisfaction Of
knowing that according to accepted
theories ho is immune from smallpox.
His experience, however, is as moth.
ing to that of one OF the vaooinators on
tho ataff Of DR.. Alonzo Blauyelt, chief
inspector Of the bureau Of contagious
diseases. This doctor had slight
pimple on his nose, and while he was at
work with needles and tooth. picks il
itched and no sbsentmindedly SCRATCH
cd it. This took, " too, and in a few
days the unhappy man was in secluaiori
nursing the huge red, purle, and blue
probosics which would oausey to fhde
into insigniflcance the greatest effects
OF the widest western s'noae.psint" If
brought near it. It Id q trying situa-
tion for model OF sobriety.
In striking contrast OF these oases is
