Guest of Manila Chamber of Conn
 merce-Death of Colonel Rafferty.
 MANILA, Sept 15. - The Chinese chamber of commerce of Manila gave a banquet to Governor Taft Saturday night. The governor was entertained in an oriental manner.
 In the address of welcome made by the president of the chamber the ad- visibility of admitting more Chinese to the Philippine Islands was suggested. In reply Governor Taft said the exclu- sion of Chinese was q recognition of their thrift and energy and that the Chinese therefore should consider themselves complimented by the meas ure. He did not discuss their possible admission to the islands.
 Captain Bilo, q leader of 1adrones in Bulacan province, Luzon, who was guilty of thirty murders and who had been an outlaw for years, was killed by the native constabulary last Friday. Bilo was surrounded, but refused to surrender. The constabulary then shot him to death.
 The force of native constabulary which has been in pursuit of the Rios band of irreconcilables in Tayabas province, Luzon, has killed eighteen and captured twenty-five of the ban dits. The constabulary encountered the band upon four different occasions during the chase, but suffered no losses whatever. Rios. the leader of the ban dits, says he will never be captured alive.
 Colonel William A. Rafferty of the Fifth cavalry is dead at San Felipe from injuries sustained by fall a week ago. General Chaffee was at his bedside when he expired. Colonel Rafferty's remains will be sent home on the United States army transport Logan.

PAINTING WITH SAND.

w. S. O'Brien, Of McGregor, Iowa.
has invented new form of decoration,
which he calls sand mixing or painting.
In the vicinity are different colored
sands, which he has collected and ar
ranged in jars, forming neutral pic
lures.
Some of the jars contain as many as
four different tints, which are placed In
layers, in curves and other forms, to
represent rock formations, glaciers and
landscapes. One of the jars has Dor
der of three different colors, and IN the
center is a realistic view of a prairie.
with a background Of mountains, the
tops of which are covered with snow.
The sand is placed in the Jars IN
lose. dry state, and the work of packing
some Of the Jars occupied many hours
of Mr.. O'Brien's leisure. They are
packed in quart and pint jars, and one
of the photographs reproduced shows
series Of borderings which comprises
twenty-five different designs and q
| score of different colors.

His Rebuke.

Years ago at a great university In
Massachusetts there was distinguish
ed professor whose looAs did not CORE
spond to the sweetness and power OF
his mind. His face was one OF the sort
that suggests nicknames, and his way
of walking and talking were easily
turned to caricature.
One Of his students was a clever
mimic. He took off the drolleries OF all
members of the faculty to the delight
Of his fellow students, and this profess.
sor came in for his share Of ridicule.
It happened that once when the mimic
was amusing some Of his classmates
with limitations Of Prof. -, one of the
audience was a tactless telltale, VINO
boarded at the professors house. Of
course he told the good old gentleman
that he had been the object of irrever-
ent ridicu1e.
The next day the professor called MS
mimic to his desk after class, and SAID,
quietly:
"Mr. Harrison. understand that you
have been having some fun at my ex-
pense. l realize that lend myself TO
caricature, and l do not mind your
amusing yourself and others by taxing
off nv peculiarities. All l suggest IS
that in the future you be careful to
choose for your audience men OF tact
and good sense"

CAMP LIFE.
The Forester Learns Many Things
While in the Woods.

The Forester Learns Many Things
While in the Woods.
The forester has opportunities to see
and to know the wild life of the forest
better than most men, says Paul Girls
void Huston in the Atlantic. He hears
the whistle of the quail and the drum
ming of the partridge, and frequently
he finds their nests and sees their
broods of young; he learns the ways
of the wild ducks, stumbles upon the
curious nests of the ovenbird, and be-
comes acquainted with many rare, shy
birds; he has the best of chances to OBJ
serve the squirrels and deer, the two
most graceful animals in the woods,
in their native homes amid the trees,
and he comes across saplings against
which deer have scraped their horns
when in thevelvet, follows their trails
to his work, surveys through their
feeding grounds where they have
browsed the tips of cedar, hemlock,
ash and Eastwood, picks up their cast
off antlers lying among the leaves, and
finds their beds of matted grass and
ferns where they have lain. And, then,
too, few things are quite so palatable
as game cooked to a crisp over wood
FIRE in the open air., and nothing tastes
so good as pure, fresh, cold water
drunk straight from brook, without
the Intervening aid of cup or glass.
| These also are the forester's advan-
tages He may fry some brook trout
or pickerel for breakfast, roast piece
of venison for lunch, and broil rabbit
or squirrel for supper. The writer has
had bass, venison and partridge in one
day, and all taken within mile OF
camp. This, it is true, is not the ordi-
nary camp fare; but taste of game
is not at all uncommon, and guns and
rifles are almost a necessary part OF
an outfit.

was severely wounded, but to him there
was never such another battle as the one

walk under the gray November skies.
"Neil is wounded and l must go to

as he read the name. "Oh, kittie. what
