General Satisfaction in Manila.
MANILA Juna 20-The Philippine Com

gard 10 the matter of the laagulGe TO be
used by the courts of the archipelago.
For days the members of the Commits
sion were showereG with petitions. some
in favor of the retention OF Spanish and
more asking that English be adopted for
the use OF the tribunals.
Upon reassemblins this morning. the
Commission resumed the consideration OF
the amendments to the Judicial Code bill
proposed by Judge Taft Mr. Ide and
others. and finally voted to adopt that
OF Mr. Ide- This amendment is in the ma
ture Of a compromise, permitting the op-
tionaI use Of both Spanish and English in
the court pieadinss. 1t requires that the
court records and briefs be printed in both
the languages named
The members Of the Commission believe
that this is a wise measure. and that it
is not advisable At the present time to
eliminate Spanish or 10 make English

cision appears to be generally accepta-

REVOLVER WOUNDS.
More Dangerous, For Many Reasons,

More Dangerous, FOR Many reasons
( Than Those of the Rifle.
Wounds In civil life differ from those
In military life i'll the greater after dam
ger of septic involvement. Revolver
cartridges are more liable than are
rifle cartridges to have been handled
frequently, to have been carried in
dirty pockets and to have come in con-
tact with various forms of infectious
materials that may prove of serious
consequence when buried in the It's
sues. Moreover, revolver cartridges
are covered with a coating of grease,
and this encourages an accumulation
of manifold microbic material, some of
which may prove to be of virulently
infectious nature.
Rifle bullets are practically always
sterilized by the intense Aeat developed
by the powder at the moment of their
discharge. Their rapid progress through
the air while in heated condition still
further serves to cleanse them of any
extraneous material that may chance
to have accumulated on their surfaces.
This cleansing process is very effectu-
ally begun by the rifling of the rifle
barrel through which the bullet forces
its way.
All these favorable factors are lack
ing In the case of the revolver bullet,
and so 1t Is possible that in any given
case such a bullet may carry infectious
material with 1t into the tissues. If
this were In small amount, nature
might effectually wall it off and no Sc
rious consequences result On the 9TH
err hand, such infectious material might
lie seemingly dormant for days, but
really slowly gathering strength by
multiplication, and when its toxins
were elaborated in sufficient amount
they might paralyze protective chemo-
taxis and produce septic condition.

A straw stack in the sheep yards adj
joining the sheep barn is very desirable
thing to have, notwithstanding some lit
tie disadvantages it may have. The one
most serious objection to having ii placed
in the sheep yards is that the wool on
the neck of the sheep is liable to become
filled with dust and chaff while they are
searching for the best elements of which
it consists. But the advantages gained
by the saving of hay, etc, offsets all in
jury done to the fleece by this. Sheep en-
joy picking the dust and finer portions
from the stack, especially if it be an oat
straw stack Ewes and lambs delight
in lying alongside of it, and they will be
found there more often than in the barn,

Why Do We Remember Certain
Things and Forget othersS

lnan8s uMU OEkEt OAncEbH
The yagagles of memory are some Of
the most interesting of those connected
with the human mind and body. Why
do we forget certain things and re-
member others? Myriads of these IT.
regularities are as yet unaeeonnted
for. Perhaps not even the cleyerest
metaphysician will ever account for
them.
Professor James reminds us how
something which we have tried In vain
to recall will afterward, when we have
given up the attempt, "saunter into
the mind" as Emerson says, as inno-
Gently as If IL had never been sum-
moned.
Again, bygone experiences will revive
after years of oblivion, often as the
result of some cerebral disease or acci-
dent
Such n case is the one quoted by
Coleridge of young woman In Ger
many who could neither read nor write,
but who was said to be possessed of a
devil because, in fever, she was heard
raving in Latin, Greek and in an OBJ
scure rabbInical dialect of Hebrew.
Whole pages of her talk were written
down and were found to consist of
sentences ineligible in themselves, but
not having the slightest connection
with one another. TO say that she was
possessed of a devil was the easiest
way of accounting for the matter.
At last the mystery was cleared up
by a physician, who traced back the
girls history until he learned that at
the age of nine she was taken to live
at the house of an old pastor, great
Hebrew scholar, and that she remain
ed there until the pastors death. 1t
had been for years the old mans Gus
tom to walk up and down a passage
near the kitchen and read to himself
In loud voice.
His books were examined, and among
them many of the passages taken down
at the young woman's bedside were
identified. The theory of demoniacal
possession was abandoned. = Youths

Thrown From HI. Cab and KILLED.

The following Is a most interesting
and, in one respect, pathetic tale -
Mr.. j. Pope, AZ Ferrar Road, Streat-
ham, England, said:
Eyes, poor chap, he is gone, dead
horse bolted, thrown off his seat on his
cab he was driving and killed-poor
chap, and a good sort too, mate. It
was him, you see, who gave me that
half bottle of St. Jacobs Oil that made
new man of me. Twas like this :
Me and Bowman were great friends
Some gentleman had given him a bot
tie of st. Jacobs Oil which had done
him lot of good he only used half
the bottle, and remembering that had
been martyr to rheumatism and sci
atlca for years, that / had literally
tried everything, had doctors, and all
without benefit, l became discouraged,
and looked upon it that there was no
help for me. "Well," said Pope,
"You may not believe me, for it is a
miracle. but before l had used the CON
tents of the half bottle of st. Jacob IS
Oil which poor Bowman gave me, I
was well man. There it is, you see,
after years of pain, after using RENE
dies, oils, embrocations, horse lini-
ments, and spent money ON doctors
without getting any better, was com
pletely cured in few days. L bought
another bottle, thinking the pain
might come back, but it did not. so
gave the bottle away to friend who

Properly preparing the seeded for the
reception of the seed for every farm crop
is of the utmost Importance. When a
drill is used the ground should be pre-
pared in advance. Where seed is broad
casted an extra narrowing or rolling will
be time well spent. With common har-
row twelve acres is not a hard days
work for one team, and in most cases the
increase in crop would give you at least
SIS for the days work. This is very good
pay.
