Gov. Taft, before the Senate Philip
pines committee to-day, told of fight
in Mindanao, in which some Ameri-
can troops engaged a lot of natives
armed with bolos. One of the Ameri-
can sergeants had a hand-to-hand en-
counter with a native The boloman
struck the sergeant blow in the neck
almost decapitating him. The soldiers
life was saved because the bolo had a
good-sized nick in the blade. The
carotid artery just fitted this nick and
was not severed, although the neck ON
each side was cut.
The sergeant, Gov. Taft said, sup
ported his head in his hand and rode

Honor Sir waIter scott.

THE people of Scotland" said Mr..
John o. Miller of Edinburgh, never
cease to bless the memory of Sir Wal
ter Scott To the Wizard of the
North is due mainly the credit of
spreading his country's fame to all
parts of the world, and that is the
reason that with each recurring sum-
mer vast numbers of American tour
lists pour into our country. The best
part of their visitation, from a prac-
teal poiEt, is the good American dol
lars they dispense with no nigEardly
hand. If it hadn't been for Sir Walter,
they would have probably never
thought to come our way, and that Il
why we revere his name"

A Health to the Fighting Man.

Health to the Fighting Man.
A health to the fighting mani The man
with red CLINT in his eye
A CLINT that CLOVIS to a tender CLEAN for
the old flag in the sky,
10 the man who dares-and the man who
cares for the good old u s. A.
Who bears the brunt in the battle front
and hurries to the fray
A health to him-our soldier grim-wfth
the warlight in his eye.
Who tunes his life to the shrilling hfe
and knows the way to die
A health to the fighting man! The man
all innocent of sham.
Who pays the due of loyal heart at the
shrine of Uncle Sam:
Who bears our load on the weary road
that leads to a distant peace.
And asks halt till he finds the fault,
and the roars of cannon cease:
May the throb and thrum of the rolling
drum be promise to his ears
OF the joyous day when he'll come away
to hear a nations cheers.
A health to the fighting man, The man
with impulse clean and clear:
We hold his righte as gallant knight
without reproach or fear
When the bugle sings and the bullet rings
and the saber flashes bright.
May he feel the aid of the prayers
prayed to guard him in the fight;
May good luck ride either side and
save him for the grasp
OF the friendly hand in his native land

Couldn't Find a Good One.

A speaker at one of this seasons
banquets was making the point that
the life of modern criticism is fault
finding, and that it would cease to
exist If it declared things good. To IL
lustrate this he told of his little boy,
aged seven, who begged to be allowed
to eat some strawberries. We'll"
said the careful mother, you may
have just one good one" The boy at
once made for the pantry, where he
remained FIVE minutes. His mother
finally went to investigate and found
him with stained lips standing over the
box of berries, which was already half
emptied- He continued the work of
destruction, and, as he tasted each
berry he muttered to himself: 50 'Tain't
