This bill previously passed the Senate and now only requires the Presi- dents signature As 7169 men from Ala bama served in the rebellion, war with Spain or provisional army, the importance of this new home to the South can be ap- preciated. Judge Richardson of Alabama and Representative Underwood of> Ala bama made strong speeches supporting the measure.

DISCUSS RESERVE FUND.
Special Committee of Five from the Mod
ern WOOdmen OF America Preparing Re-
port for the Grand Encampment.

Greenville, Ill, Dec. 1.-THE Mod
ern Woodmen of America are facing
a serious problem, that of the estab-
lishment of reserve fund. It was to
investigate this problem that a COM
mittee of five members, appointed at
the national encampment, has been
in session at GreenviIle for two weeks
just concluding it's session. Experts
from the great insurance orders of
the country appeared and gave their
views on the reserve fund; statistics
of the various fraternal insurance or
ders of the United States and Europe
were read, and in fact everything that
would enlighten the committee upon
the question was secured. In England
it was learned an act of parliament
provides for the establishment of
reserve fund and there is belief that
this government will take similar ac-
ton. The Woodmen wish to be ready
for this law should it come, and wish
to have the question thoroughly dis
cussed in every lodge before the next
national convention meets.

Manila, Dec. 12.-The Women's
Peace league, organized under the
leadership of Senorita Poblete, Fill
ipino, has transmitted letters, with
the permission of Gen. Chaffee, urg-
ing peace upon the insurgent general
Malvar and other Filipino chiefs.
These letters remind the Filipino
leaders in the field that the war has
destroyed innumerable homes and
devastated large territories, all of
which, while it abundantly proves
the tenacity of the insurgents and
their faith in their cause, does not re-
move the fact that the operations of
American soldiers throughout the
islands daily demonstrate the resolu-
ton of the people of the United
States to make their sovereignty re-
spected throughout the archipelago.
The league urges the leaders to make
peace to avoid greater evils. The
wOmen's league has received a cable
gram to the effect that the Filipino
general, Lukban, who is in Samar,
is pleading for a discontinuance of
hOStilities.
