AGUINALDO NOT
 INTELLIGENT MAN
IN OPINION OF CONGRESSMAN WEEKS, WHO SAW HIM, HE IS MORE CUNNING THAN INTELLI. GENT-FEELS INFERIoRITY.

San Francisco, December 5.-Congress- rived from Manila on the transport Han cock, when asked about conditions in the Philippines, replied:
 'I saw Aguinaldo and spent half a day with him. He is not an intelligent man, and I think he feels that he is inferior in intellect to the Americans. He seemed to me not clover. but cunning. The gem eral opinion among the military men is that Aguinaldo should be allowed to es- cape He is a dead issue, and is no long, CT a menace to the United States. It Is supposed that he does not want to run away as he would at once be assassin ated by the friends of General Luna whom he ordered to be killed.
 "The new method of educating the na- lives as adopted by the government Is wrong. Refined, handsome young ladies from Vassar and other colleges went down to the Philippines to educate these natives. They have had to put up with all kinds of privaticns and to eat na- tive food and In some places their lives have been in danger. think this entirely unnecessary. Tn piace or these young ladies, discharged soldiers of education who have become acclimated should be appointed and the young ladies should oe sent home.
 '"rhe question of the Sultan of Sulu and his narem is a very small matter when you are confronted with the great questions that are now involved. The Sultan lives in a dirty tumble-down house and he may have several wives, but he is a very insignificant individual. I do not fear any trouble with him."

MAY SELL TWO
 LAND COMPANIES
REPORT THAT BIRMINGHAM AND NEW YORK CAPITALISTS ARE TO
 BUY sHEFFIELD's LAND CON- PANIEs AND REoRGANlzE THEM

Sheffield, December 5.-(special.)-A re- port has been current in Sheffield for several days past to the effect that ne- gotiations are about concluded for the sale of the two land companies in Shef- field.
 These two companies represent about two-thirds of the original landed property embraced in the formation of Sheffield, and have been for several years badly in- volved in debt.
 he report mentioned says the compan- ies are to be reorganizsd and that a strong syndicate of Birmingham and New York capitalists have agreed to buy tho property and place 1t once more in shape to become an active agent in the develop IT ent of Sheffield.
 Col. N. F. Thompson of this city Is named as having interested and formed this syndicate, and there is generally ex- pressed belief that the report is correct.
 Colonel Thompson Is absent from the city at the present time and his confir- nation of the report cannot be obtained.

TWENTY
 TWO NEGROES Charged With Being Implicated in Opp Killing FEARS OF A BIG LYNCHlNG Friends of the Two White Men Who Were Killed May Attempt
 Summary Jus
 tice.
FEARS OF A BIG LYNCHlNG

Andalusia, December 5.-(Special).- Sheriff Bradshaw returned to Andalusia at l2 clock today with twenty-two ne- groes who are accused of complicity in the killing of J. W. Dorsey, a merchant, and Fale Atkinson, city marshal at Opp last evening.
 The negroes brought in today were chased with bloodhounds and captured by the sheriff and his posse.
 There is great excitement here and fears are entertained that the friends of the dead white men will attempt whole sale lynching. The sheriff landed the ne- groes safely in jail and has taken precau- tions to resist the mob in case one is formed.
 J. w. Dorsey and Marshal Fale Atkin- son went to the turpentine quarters near Opp yesterday evening to arrest a negro who was accused of stealing a pistol from a white man. The negro was bar ricaded in his cabin and fired on the of ficers as they approached. It developed that the negro had about fifteen of his fellow workmen in the house with him. A general battle ensued in which Dorsey was killed and Atkinson fatally wounded. A white man named F'itzsmmons who was with them was shot twice in the leg. Two negroes were killed and several others wounded. The names of these are at present unknown.
 The attempt to capture the negroes at that time was given up and Sheriff Brad shaw was sent for He left Andalusia at once for Opp with deputies and dogs and returned today with twenty-two ne- groes.
 J. w. Dorsey, one of the white men killed, was prominent merchant of Opp, member of the council and treas- urer of the town.

Lost River"

Lost River has & thrill a minute, and the minutes come fast is the terse and telling manner in which Joseph Ar thurs pastoral melodrama was noted by the New York Herald. during the recent long run of this Hoosier play at the Fourteenth Street Theatre. The author shows Indiana characters in a series of situations The scenery and mechanical effects which will be seen here are the same as used during the New York en- gagement and the chief interest centers in the scene where the heroine, riding her wheel at top speed. overtakes the william whose front wheel is overlapping the heros and whose arm is uplifted to stab him in the back, just as the hero he fires the shot which shatters his wrist and brings him to earth.
 There are supernumaries. male quar- tet country 'orchestry," three horses and scenery, provided for this pastoral melodrama. Lost River" will appear at the Jefferson Theatre next Monday and Tuesday and Tuesday matinee.

CLOSES THE PORTS.
General Chaffee to Stop Supplies to
 Insurgents.

Manila, December 5.-General Chaffee has issued orders for the closing of all ports in Laguna and Batangas provinces. The quartermasters there will cease pay ing rents to the Filipinos for buildings used for military purposes, as 1t Is known that a large proportion of the money finds its way to the insurgents in the way of contributions, and General Chaffee in- tends that no more government funds shall find their way into the hands of the enemy. The reason for closing the ports is that too many supplies are found to be getting into the possession of the insur- gents.
 General Chaffee intends giving Bell commanding the troops in the Balangas province, every assistance he may require to subdue the insurrection.
 Governor Taft is improving rapidly and now expects to return to the United States on the government transport Grant, which will sail before Christmas

A STRONG LETTER TO DR. HALL

Stevenson, Ala. June 6. 1901 Dear Sir: have been a great sufferer from bladder trouble for two years and my case was of a very serious nature compelling me to have several painful and dangerous operations l have also taken many different remedies; l taken Swamp Root three years Warmers 8 Sale cure two years, and they only gave temporary relief.
 After having two operations and pre- pairing for the third, I saw your Texas Wonder advertised. and purchased bot tie. And I got almost immediate relief, and have continued to improve every since.
 My doctors said my bladder had grow ed together in three places. and l was suffering almost death. No man living can say more than I can say for your Texas Wonder. And I call 1t World s Wonder and I hope all who suffers will give a trial.
 Wishing you success, am,
