DOUBTED AGUINALDo's CAPTURE
Cables Thought Announcement an
American Trick

Manila. June 5.-Guevarra, adjutart
to General Cables, had about three
hours interview with Aguinaldo. He
said that Cables did not believe that
Aguinaldo had been captured, and con-
sequently issued a proclamation char
aeterizing Aguinaldo's address to the
Filipino people as an American trick.
Aguinaldo, through Guevarra, advised
Cables to surrender Immediately.
After this interview General Wade
and General Sumner informed Cue
varra that Cables must notify them
at Pagsanian, not later than next Mon.
day, of his decision in the matter.
The American generals declined to
guarantee that Cables would not be
prosecuted.
General Trias, in company with
Senior Lucban, brother of the insur-
gent leader still operating in Samar,
has gone to Samar island and will at
tempt to induce Lucban to surrender.
The commission today will resume
the organization of civil governments
in the provinces. A bill has been

The salaries of the circuit Judges
range from $4,000 to $500 a year.

probably be assigned to the circuits
OF lloilo and Cebu, respectively.

treasurer, young man, who had. re-
Gently come to the village, had made
financial statement that October

persons felt very muck scandalized.
Such a thing had never been done be-

vealed the fact that the Reverend Wes-
ley Norwood had received but $51.75
for six morths of faithful service.
Il don't believe in bringing up such
matters in the religious services of
the church." growled Brother Cook,
who always protested that it was a
waste of money to pay the minister so
much salary.
Il quite agree with you," responded
Mr.. Barnes. He was not member of
the church. but attended because it
was respectable thing to do-gave

something extra while getting ready
for Thanksgiving. It was to be a
grand secret; not soul but members
OF the society should know a word Of
it.
At the close of the business meet
ing Of the Young Peoples League, the
president made close scrutiny to as
sure himself that all present were
members; he then proposed that, as
"Thny would not do anything" the
League take up the matter.
Il understand that we have nearly
sixty dollars III the treasury; we could
pay the pastor siS.5o-bring the SAL
airy up to S100-and have enough left
to pay all bills and begin the new year
out Of debt. II we do this I suggest
that we observe the utmost secrecy
and make 1t complete surprise" All
readily agreed to the plan and pledged
the proper reticence in the matter.
Four OF the most faithful met after
prayer meeting to discuss the situa-
ton, and decided that they must at
once collect s24S.25, the balance nee
essary to pay the six months salary
due. This they proceeded to do SO
quietly that no one surmised a gem
eral canvass was being made. Before
Sunday the entire amount was secured.
Friday, after school, the Junior
Leaguers met and decided that mas
much as the grown up folks would
not help in the matter, they would do
what they could; SO they voted to pay
over every bit there was in the
treasury. Upon counting s23.25 was
found to be the correct amount.
