THE PEACEFUL PHILIPPINES.
Twelve Attacks Made on the AM
eriean Troops Since May End.

Washington, Sept. S.-The war de-
partment received a cable dispatch
from Gen. Chaffee, dated Manila,
Sept. 9Th, stating that an attack was
made on the United States troops at
Mataling Falls, seven miles from Camp
Wears, by Moros, Sept. 1st. Lieut.
VIM. Parker, Eleventh infantry, and
two soldiers were wounded, and one
soldier killed.
Gen. Cha6ee also says:
"Have authorized Brig. Gen. Saml.
Sumner to move troops into Macin
country and exact promise of good be-
havior in future from Datos and fol-
lowers. Troops have been attacked
II times since May End, with loss to
us of four killed and l2 wounded. We
have remained all the time quiet, seek
ing friendship; in action self-defense
only"
The last part of Gen. Chafee's dis
patch is intended to infolm the war
department. that the army has been
acting wholly upon the defensive in
the Moro country. His instructions
have been to do nothing which would
provoke agconhict with the Moros and
the position of the war department is
that if there is conflict it must be
justified by the aggressions of the
Moros.

A HOSTILE COUNTRY.

Manila, Sept. s.-Gen. Chaffee has
ordered Gen. Sumner, commanding
the department of Mindanao, to lead a
column against the Macin Moros. In
his order Gen. Chaffee suggests that
eight companies of infantry, two troops
of cavalry and one battery shall form
at Camp Wears, island of Mindanao.
1t is expected that the column will
move within week.
Most of the attacks upon the Ameri-
can forces have originated in the Macin
country. This movement is to be di-
rected against hostiles, several Of
whom are enumerated in Gen. Chafee's
order.
Gen. Sumner is directed to require
the hostiles to give satisfactory pledge
to refrain from aggression in the fu-
ture. There are several Moro strong
holds in the Macin country. It is not
definitely known where the first op-
position viii be encountered. This will
depend upon Gen. Summers course af-
ter moving. Gen. Sumner is directed to
protect the friendly natives.

The Archbishop and the Irishman.

Archbishop Ireland tells good story
on himself, says Rambler of the Catho-
lie Union and Times of Buffalo, N. Y. /:
Recently in Chicago he stopped at a
fruit stand behind which stood a
swarthy individual whom he naturally
took to be a son of sunny Italy. His
grace is handy with many languages.
Italian among the rest, and he ad-
dressed the fruiterer in supposed native
tongue, only to bring forth this re-
tort. Wirra may God forgive your
reverence for taking me for dago.'
To square himself with his fellow
countryman, the archbishop selected
few bits of his choicest fruit, for
which he offered an overgenerous
price, and this time he was greeted
with something like this; Begorram
twas bad enough to be taken for a
dago, but to offer me pay for the bit
of fruit that tis an honor for me to
have your reverence accept is more
than l can stand. Oh, what did I
ever do to earn this insultn So the
archbishop gave the case up as hope
less and departed, having left his bless
ing as an Offset to the wounded feel
ings of the Celt.

RIOT IN PENNSYLVANIA.
Two italians Assaulted Monday
One Dead; Another May Die.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Sept. 8.-A fight
today between striking miners at
Maltby resulted in the death of one
man and the fatal injury of another.
Both victims were Italians The man
killed was Sistieno Vancastelli, aged
36 years. HIS companion, Frank
Portray, was stabbed several times and
is in the Wilkesbarre hospital not ex-
pected to live.
All last night strikers gathered in
the vicinity of the Maltby mine of the
Lehigh Valley Coal Company at Maltby
and the Henry E. colEery at Forty
Fort. It was rumored that both Of
these mines were to start today with
full force of men, and the strikers
had pickets out on all roads leading to
the mines to intercept any men who
might be on their way to work.
A heavy fog prevailed and it was
difficult to see people In the roadway.
Shortly after o'clock a number of
strikers on guard at the Maltby col
liery saw two men approaching carry
ing guns. The pickets came to the
conclusion that they were non-union
men going to work. The strangers were
stopped and strikers crowded around
them. One striker in the crowd who
spoke the Italian language, said the
men were starting On a hurting trip
and that they were union miners.
The other strikers did not under
stand what was said and believing that
the foreigners were non-union men on
their way to work, attempted to take
the gun away from Vancastelli. He
resisted, fight ensued and soon the
two Italians were lying in pool of
blood in the roadway. Vacnastelli was
shot in the side ad the left side of his
face was crushed iu. His companion,
Portray, was stabbed in the side seve
raj times.

Cultivation in Shade.

The "piney woods have developed
a most unexpected use and value, ac-
cording to Georgia paper, quoted
in the Southern Farm Magazine.
It is generally known that the culti-
vation Of tobacco under shade, or par
tial, is now an established business in
Florida and New England, where it
originated, and is extending to Cuba
and other countries, the importance
of the system being due to the fact
that it applies mainly to the finest
varieties of the plant and is immense
ly profitable. It has been suggested
by the agricultural authorities in
Porto Rico that the great expense
of the artificial system could be
obyiated by planting the crop in the
shade of established fruit orchards, and
the same idea has been employed sue
.cessfully in Georgia, as is now ex-
planned, for the benefit of fruit or
chards by planting them in the shelter
Of pine trees for protection from the
cold in winter and the heat in sum-
mer. The experiment has been tried
by Mr.. Dukes, Fof Colquitt County,
Ga, and the local paper, the Moultrie
News, says that if there be those who
doubt that the plan "will work. they
ought to visit his orchard. The trees,
it adds, have fourished, and their
growth and yield do not seem to have
been hindered in the least by their
surroundings. "Trees younger than
three years are so loaded down with
fruit that in many instances the limbs
have broken - The new departure in
fruit growing has excited attention all
over the State. The State entomolo-
gist, Prof. W. M. Scott, went from
Atlanta to see the new orchard and
after thorough Investigation. pro-
nounced the experiment great sue
cess" The fruit grown on the orchard
is of the highest quality"
The hint may be of value beth to
peach growers and tobacco growers in
this State, and to many farmers who
may presently join the ranks of such
growers. If fine tobacco can best and
most pro6tably be grown in the shade,
and the shade of pine trees viii an
swer, and if successful peach orchards
can be established in such shade, our
piney woods, so long surrendered to
Ca9biO anu mugs, ouSAG W UoSola0
among the most valuable lands in the
State. The profits on Sumatra and
Cuban tobacco grown in the shade are
reported at incredible figures. From
one acre of peach trees at Batesburg,
it is noted, the cwner cleared $500
during the past season. We should
have rich country hereabouts if all
the available pine forest lands were
devoted to growing toabcco and peach
es.
And perhaps other crops might do as
well as these two in the solemn shade,
or half-shade, of the pines. There is
the whole range of fruit trees and
forage plants, cereals, grasses, regeta-
bles, etc, to try, at our leisure. 1t
may be that we have a great natural
advantage in the possession and pres
ence of so much natural, lasting, and,
therefore, cheap shade for agricultu
raj and horticultural purposes as is
afforded by these brown woodlands all
about US. Mr.. Dukes's discovery is a
very interesting one at any rate: and
there is no telling what may come Of
it.-News and Courier.
