Manila. July IA line of operations
in the island of Samar has been fur
nished to the correspondent of the As
ISOLATED Press by Major Noble, adju-
tant general of the department of the
Visayas. According to this information
over twenty points in Samar have been
garrisoned. Although there are no
roads upon the island, General Hughes
has penetrated into the interior in al
directions and has assembled the various
rivers.
General Chafee, acting upon the rec
OmmendatiOn of General Hughes, has
/ ordered the construction of several
( points now occupied by natives friend
I ly to the Americans. The influence Of
/ the insurgent general, Lucban, who
has long headed the revolution in Sa-
mar, has Waned, and none of Lucban's
various rowing bands possesses more
! than six or seven rifles.
Friends of the insurgent general,
/ Malvar, who is still at large, have tel
/ egraphed former insurgent leader Tri-

peers All that remained to be done
was for the mayor to impose the SEN
tence which should cOpsign him to d
long incarcera ton behind the grim gray
walls of the penitentiary-
The faithful Springfield made a
fearful appeal for mercy, but Holdren
remained sternly Obdurate. He was
firmly convinced that his duty to the
community at large demanded the sac
rifce of Loaf"
Driven to a last resort, the woman,
with many inward qualms, decided TO
try and interest the services Of Miss
Veronica Falk, for salient rumOr pen
etrating even to the circles in which
she and Loaf moved, reported the
mayor as sweet on Miss Falk, and
Kate argued that if any one could in
cline Holdren's heart to mercy, she it
was.
Yet, as a matter of fact only the
night before, Holdren and Miss Falk
had separated. Vowing never to speak
to one another again. The cause of
their disa greement was too trivial for
words, but as both Obstinately refused
10 give in a single inch, the effect was
none the less cataclysmal. The bitter
est part of it to Veronica, moreover,
was that she knew HOldren was in the
right, although with the bitterness of
pride she declared that she would die
sooner than admit it.
SO it was a very naughty and de
fiant Miss Falk that consented to see
Kate when that woebegone and fright
ened supplicant presented herself at the
Kitchen door. With many excuses and
much repetition the woman told her
hating tale. but as she proceeded We
ronica found herself taking a lively in
terest in the narration. Here was once
where her Admirable CrichtOn" was
manifestly in the wrong.
I agree with you that it is a mon
strous injustice to punish a man when
he is trying to reform" she said final
", but why do you come to me? What
can I do for you?i
ooh, ma'am, there amt nothin' t kin
