Where Capture Was Made.

The province of Isabella, where the capture of Aguinaldo occurred, is on the Island of Luzon, about 200 miles northeast of Manila and about 10 miles north of Baler. on the eastern coast, which place was made memorable by the capture Of Lieutenant Gilmore and his party from the gunboat Yorktown in April, 1899. 1sa- bella province is wild and mountainous, especially along the coast, where the szts7~ range known the Grand Cordellanos Orinte extends for hundred miles or more from north to south, the highest point of the range being but few miles from the shore. Rugged trails, in some places but foot or two in width, lead across the mountains, frequently crossed by rushing streams, and where these overflow the banks the trails are waist deep iii mud. It was to this uninvitinS district that General Funston went a short time ago. It was part of the is- land that had never been visited py American troops.
 General Funston's Daring Plan.
 General Funstons plans, as outlined In a. dispatch from Manila to the Associated Press d few days ago, were to make the trip over the ISdDeld MouutaiiS tO <AB oA- naldo's hiding place, accompanied by Surgeon Harrison, Captain Newton Of the Thirty-fourth Infantry, Lieutenant Ad- rnire of the Twenty-second Infantry, Lieutenant Mitchell of. the Thirty-s1xtn Infantry six veteran scouts and a. ,sm- pany of native scouts, all picked men. They were to be landed by the gunboat Vicksburg on a beach north of Baiereano were to proceed overland guided by former officer of Aguinaldo, who had De- trayed the Filipino leaders abode.
 It was arranged that Aguinaldos repre- sentative who had given the information to the Americans should lead the native scouts and assume the character or in- surgents still loyal to the rebel cause.
 They were to make it appear that they had capture l General Funston fi otner American officers and was bringlAy them into the camp of the insurgent chief to be delivered as prisoners of war
 Then was to come the daring part or the plan.
 The pretended prisoners were to throw eide their assuemed character and change themselves from prisoners to captors. seize Aguinaldo beat down any opposition that might show itself and hold their prisoner.
 To carry out the programme required a long march into the interior and never caasinr to guard against treachery. The troops in New Ecija and Viscaya and the gunboats Vicksburg and Albany were ordered to cooperate with the captur- ing party.
 The news of Aguinaldo's capture fndi- oates clearly that the plans of General Funston were carried out successfully.

Unfortunate Names.

Is there anything in luck The facts
point to the danger OF naming any
British warship after a snake or a
stinging thing OF any kind. Within the
last six weeks the Viper and the Cob
ra. both OF them engined on the tur-
hine principle. have been wrecked.
The destroyer lost during the recent
maneuvers was the fourth Viper that
has been wrecked out OF six Vipers
that have hoisted the Kings pennant
since the British had a navy. A vi
per was wrecked in 1850 A Vipere. a
French prize. commissioned into the
British service was wrecked In 1873.
A third was wrecked In 1897. and the
fourth was wrecked last month on
Guernsey. The Serpent. wrecked
eleven years ago was the fourth Brit
ish man-of.war OF that name 10 meet

lost. one In 1881 and one in 1S47.
Three Lizards have been wrecked:

an Alligator in l7S2. a Crocodile in
1884 and Rattlensake In 1881. Two
Dragons and a Basilisk may also be
added 20 the list.
