The SalticO IS a handsome beast:
You may search the world from east to east,
And you never can discover, | know,
Such a beautiful beast as the Saltico.
AS black snow is his naughty head,
His eyes like blades of grass are red;
His mouth is the shape OF a circular square,
And fer his nose, it isn't there.
The SaItco's fingers not so fleet,
So he plays the piano with his feet.
And. as mis- voice Is out of gear,
He has 10 sing all his songs by ear.
The Salticos dress is exceedingly plain;
'Ts a satin gown with velvet train, .
Embroidered with pearls and slashed with goid,
And copper lined to keep out the cold

LETTER FROM PHILIPPINES.
j. j. LOCKER Writes to His Father in
This City.

This City.
A letter received by Franklin LOCKER
in this city from his son, j. J. LOCKER,
who is a member of the United States
army in the Philippines, tells of the
cholera raging at present in the is
lands and the precautions being taken.
to guard against it's spread. Mr.. Look
er is a member of Company II, Elev-
enth Infantry. The following is a por-
ton OF the letter: ~
i arrived here May 81, after being
a month on the way, and after expert
encing very rough voyage. The
weather here is very hot and the chol-
era is raging. Thousands have died
with this dread disease There is not
much fighting going on at present, and
none at all in the city of Manila. The
barracks in which we are quartered
are made of bamboo and leaves, and
are built in very substantial manner,
being waterproof. We have cots in our
tents to sleep on and are provided with
plenty to eat and altogether our life
is not so bad. We have ball games al
most every day and / think | will be
well repaid for my three years of SER
vice in the experience Twill gain and
the country l will see in that time. The
only Inconvenience we suffer is in the
matter OF food. The cholera scare has
been the cause of strict watch being
kept on the food the soldiers eat and
the water they drink and the commits
sary department sees that all water is
boiled and that the only food eaten is
provided by them. The good of these
precautions, however, can be readily
seen as but few cases of the diseases
have been found among the soldiers
in our regiment"
Ottumwa semi-weekly courier. [volume] (Ottumwa, Iowa) 1899-1903, 1902-07-24

A majority of the business and lab
oring men of this city, who are inter
ested in industrial affairs no doubt
read the proclamation issued by the
national convention of the United
Mine Workers of America, and the APP.
peal issued for financial aid. To those
who have been clamoring for indus
trial peace and whose business might
have suffered considerable financial
loss should there have been general
strike of the miners, it might be we'll
to ask now how much they will con-
tribute to the support of the striking
anthracite miners in their efforts to
raise themselves above the level of
the slave. 1t is to be hoped that lib
eral contributions from citizens will
be forthcoming and without delay, be-
cause the time is at hand when the
money is really needed. So far as
the trades unions are concerned, there
is no question about their contributing
as in all probability they will yolun-
tarily assess themselves a proportion
ate sum equal to that given by any
other community of union men. Just
what Industrial peace in the coal fields
in this portion of the state means to
the business interests of Ottumwa can
hardly be realized unless one goes into
detail Of the amount of money spent
in Ottumwa by the 5000 miners that
live within radius of fifty miles from
this city. If now, after the advice Civ.
en- and the promises made by the bus
mess men and others in the interests
of industrial peace, they should fail to
do their full duty in the matter of con-
tributing funds for the support of the
$4,000 strikers and their dependents,
they will have proved to
organized labor the lesson
of interdependence and the
shallowness of promises made for ;teh
sole purpose of selfish desire for in
dustrial peace. That the miners have
acted manfully in standing by their
contracts goes without saying. That
they should have the financial support
of all, is not a question, but a fact.
If those who have spoken SO grandly
of President Mitchell and other Off
GERS, including John P. Reese and the
Iowa delegation, will but contribute to
the finances oneshalf as literally there
will be no question about the miners
winning the strike. But the most es-
sential thing is to see that the strik-
ers and their dependents are not
starved out. President Reese, of Dis
trict No. Ii will issue circular APP.
peal to the unions and the public in a
Ottumwa semi-weekly courier. [volume] (Ottumwa, Iowa) 1899-1903, 1902-07-24

finger of which was amputated. The
other man, who was robably sitting a
little farther away from the rails than
was Condin or who possibly heard the
train in time to get out of the way was
not injured.
Condin was taken by, the police to
the Ottumwa hospital, where he was
attended by DR.. A. o.. Williams. The
day following the accident Condin died
at the hospital. The fling of the suit
for damages by the administrator of
his estate, ]. G. Box, is the SEQUEL to
the occurrence.
Condin was little known in Ottum-

the suit for damages, and have en-
