Gen Macarthur, in the interview
from which we quoted briefly Friday,
says a number of things about the
Filipino people that are worth
thinking of "No adversary has a
pleasant aspect" he says, and our
soldiers who are fighting the native
have no use for him. But when the
social machine is again organized
and tie asperities of conflict are for
gotcr, the admirable and sweet
traits of the Filipino will emerge.
OF course, his character is rot
rugged and hardy; but, | rerest, it is
lorable. In the strategy ard deceit
of war he adds, Eve have seen
their worst; but | think and this
is profound, as well as charitable,
observatory dishonesty and want
of honor is rather human. Certainly
when we remember the tactics by
which Aguiualdo was captured
though justifiable 10 war; there are
no stones for US to throw. elf ever we
have war in the east they will fight
for US. OF all the eastern colonial
soldiers they are the best stuff. -

Roer Priyateering.

RepCrts are thick in Europe OF
purpose on the part OF the Boers
resort to privateering in order I
carry their war against Great Britain
on to the sea. Though these report
Obtain considerable credence acros
the water, it is difficult to see bow
they can be true. For how could Doe
cruisers keep the sea? They wouit
have no home port, since both TIT
Orange Free Stats and the Soutf
African Republic are without coas
line, and their difficulties in securing
ccal and supplies would be very great,
if not actually insuperable. The!
might perhaps for while live on the
captures they made, but occasionally
they would be compelled to seek a
harbor. Tho governments that could
be coerrced by England, as poor Port
ugal has been, would seize them o.
freebooters; they would have more
excuse for doing so than Portugal had
for prostiutng her neutrality at Dala-
gou Bay to British uses, because
most of the great governments have
agreed to refrain from prvateering,
though the agreement provides that 1t
shall not be obligatory on any govern
ments that have not entered into 1t,
and the Beers have just rs much
right, legally and morally, to engage
in privateering as this country had
in the war of 1912 or the Revolution.
But even if this did cot happen, the
news that a Boer priyateer had reached
Il certain port would be the signal Tor
concentration of every available
British war ship in the vicinity to
make the escape of the crusier practi'
cally impossible.
Still prvateering, If the Beers
could make start at it, would be
heavy blow at England, striking at
what is her nerve center, above that
of any other country the, pocket book.
1t is not the actual damage done by
prvateers that counts SO much as
the fear they inspire in the CONNER
cial circles and the way they send up
insurance rates. We saw this in our
Civil war, where there we're only
three Confederate cruisers, small ships
far from being the first class and
poorly equipped, that did effective
work. They captured only 1863 ships
IN all, but insurance. rates were quad
rupled. American merchant ships,
nearly million of tons,
were driven under the British flag
and the final result was the almost
total disappearance of the merchant
navy of the United States.
Britain would of course try to get |
others nations to treat Boer privateers
rs pirates on the ground that they |
do rot serve recognized government
because she has "anneXed' the re
publics, which are now "rebels'
against her rule. 1t would be a
CO eeky claim in view of her own atti-
uude towards Cor fsderate rrivateers
in GIGS; hut of course she would be
equal to it. 1t does not follow,
however, that any self.respecting
government would obey her behests,
and there is no ground upon which
any could properly deny beligerent
lights. The czar recently invited the
diplomatic agent of President Kruger
o a state wedding, and this gave him
official recognition. Our own govern
nent has not yet taken any action
hat could be construed as an official
recognition of the merging of the
3oer republics into the British empire.

Capt. Williamson Stands Test for
Major This Afternoon.

Capt. w. w. Williamson will stand his
examination this afternoon for the po-
sition of major of the Savannah Volun-
teer Guards. The examination will be
conducted at the Regimental Armory by
Col. w. G. Obear, inspector general, and
Maj. w. L. Grayson, members of the
field officers examining board.
Because of no provision. existing in the
regulations for the examination of field
officers of the First Battalion of Heavy
Artillery upon any other graund than
that covered by the military laws Of
Georgia and the regulations for the gov
ernance of the volunteer forces, Capt
Williamson's examination will be rather
restricted. 1t is said that the great dis
parity in the requirements between what
is exacted of the heavy artillery field
officer and the field officers of the other
branches is due 90 an error made at the

A ROMANTIC MARRIAGE.
MIR. Y. Mathews and Miss Hazen wed
ed on short Acquaintance.


A rather romantic marriage took place
at 8 o'clock yesterday morning. at the
residence of Mr.. ]. S. Buckhalter, No. All
Oglethorpe avenue, west, when Miss
Philema Louise Hazen of New York, and
Mr.. Y. Owen Mathews of this city were
welded. The ceremony was by Rev. w.
s. Edenfeld, pastor of the Southside Bap-
list Church, in the presence of a few
friends.
Miss Hazen came to Savannah several
weeks ago after a visit to Florida expect
ing to remain in the city for few days.
She staid with Mr.. Buckhalter's family
and Mr.. Mathews boarded in the same
house. Miss Hazen was taken i'll and
her visit was necessarily prolonged. She
met Mr.. Mathews and they became at
once more than friends. Miss Hazen de-
cided that she would not return to New
York and the wedding followed this de-
termination.
The bride is a handsome and accom-
plished young woman. Mr.. Mathews is
from Statesboro, but has made Savannah
his home and is employed by the Central
Railway. Mr.. and Mrs. Mathews left af-
ter the ceremony for Statesboro, and will
also make a tour of Florida. They will
be absent from the city for about two
weeks.

GRAND JURY TOMORROW.
RumOred That Sunday violations
and Election Frauds VIII Come Up.


The grand jury of the Superior Court
has been summoned to meet tomorrow
afternoon at O'Clock. While nothing is
known definitely of the grand jurys pro-
gramme, other than the investigation of
routine criminal business there have
been rumors on the streets that the work
of the Law and Order League and the
recently alleged election frauds are both
to be considered.
These rumors have caused great deal
of discussion and some degre of appre-
hension, the latter among the parties
principally or remotely at interest. 1t is
known that the Law and Order League
has asked to be permitted 10 present it's
evidence TO the grand jury, and the solic-
itor general has informed the representa-
tives of the league that he will be glad
to see that they have a hearing whenever
they ask it and it suits the grand jury's
convenience.
The rumor of the prospective investi-
cation of election frauds is of course
founded in pure speculation. When
Judge Falligant charged the last grand
jury he was particularly emphatic on
this point, and this has added to the feel
ing that something might be done. At
any rate there is enough danger of it
to cause some political heads to rest I'M
easy and they will continue 10 toss
about certainly until after the meeting
of tomorrow and possibly for a consider
ably longer space of time

HORSE IN A WINDOW.
The Globe shoe Company Has a Novel
Show window

A shetland pony in the show window Of
the Globe Shoe Company's store on
Broughton street attracted great deal of
attention yesterday. The window was
converted into stable with feed box. hay
rack and all appurtences of a regular
horse stable, and the little fellow stood up
mbbling industriously at his ration of oats
and scattering the wisps of hay with a
nonchalance displayed by much older and
much longer trotted nags. The pony is
coming two years, a pure bred shetland
and will make the Globe Shoe Cos. show
window his home until July 10. He will
then be presented to some boy or girl of
Savannah.
To every purchaser of shoes the Globe
Shoe Co., gives a ticket. A committee
will give the pony away in the usual for
NAL manenr He will be exhibited after
moons in the window, and on the streets
during the day he will do a few stunts TO
amuse the children and their parents.

HAS NOT RESIGNED.
Maj. screven Is still at Head of PO-
lice Department..

lice Department..
AS the Morning News predicted yester-
day, there will be no caucus to decide
upon man to fill the Office of superin-
tendent of police. The opposition to this
plan was pronounced, and without excep-
ton those aldermen whose names were on
the list refused to be parties to the plan
All of the candidates will go before
Council and the aldermen will
decide who, in their opinion, is the best
man for the office. The friends of the
several candidates are hustling, and the
wires will be pulled until the election. The
contest is as exciting as it is interesting,
and yesterday was the first, since Maj.
Screven's election as ordinary, that there
were no new developments in the police
campaign. All of the plans and schemes
that had been under discussion miscarried
and Council will have the entire matter
in its hands.
Magistrate Naughtin and his friends
stated yesterday that they are very we'll
pleased with the outcome of the caucus
plan They were opposed to 1t under the
circumstances, and as the Morning News
stated yesterday, the supporters of this
candidate said that he would not go in to
a caucus. There appears to be no change
in the situation, and the candidates ap-
parently stand in the same positions they
have for the past few days.
Maj. Screvens commission as ordinary
did not arrive yesterday as was expected
and his resignation as superintendent of
police was not read to Council. He will
not resign the police office until the COM
mission arrives. The delay will probably
cause the election of his successor to
take place at later date than April 8.
