Mr.. DeCamp maintained that
Col. Tillman knew he owed the
account when he denied it and
he also insisted that the contents
of the two letters revealed this
fact. Mr.. DeCamp further re-

Mr. T. Miller, the last in this line
OF generous givers who have made all
this possible, IS the head of the j. P.
Miller x Co firm which has to It's ere.
dit one OF the largest general retail
businesses in western Iowa Mr.. Miller
came 10 Denison little more than
thlrty'years ago. He was possessed of
about $500 and brains and honesty. He
came just a little ahead of the great
wave OF German immigration which
reached Denison from 1875 to 1880. He
catered largely TO the German trade
and provided for then. just the things
they were accustomed to and earned
their friendship and esteem. We re-
member one incident often related by
Mr.. j. Fred Meyers to illustrate one Of
the causes of Mr.. Miller's early success
In those early days before our Germans
became Americanized there were a
good many of the older people, es
peclally whose memories dwelt with
delightupon the comforts of the Father
lad. Among those comforts were the
old-fashioned, ungainly but easy
wooden shoes. The Germans asked
for them at the stores but the Ameri-
can merchants laughingly told them
that we did not wear wooden shoes IN
this country. Mr.. Miller quietly said
to himself, "if they want wooden shoes
they shall have them,' and just as
quickly as possible there arrived direct
from Germany an invoice of wooden
shoes and the hearts and 'soles" of the
Germans were delighted The life of
Mr.. Miller is we'll known to us all. He
has beenstraigh t-forward, unobtrusive-
ly kind and just and generous We know
OF no one who does not feel that he has
richly deserved the business success
that has come to him and it is with
double pleasure that Denison accepts
the noble gift from one who has been
so identified with its growth and up
building. We believe that we but
voice the universal sentiment of the
people OF Denison when we thank Mr.
Miller for his goodness of heart and ex-
press the hope that the public library
will long remain as monument, not
only to Mr.. Carnegie but to MIR. Miller
and to ALI tho r.Seiio splrtGeu men ",aor
haE made its presence possible.

FINANCIAL END OF DENISON
CARNIVAL PROVIDED FOR,
Business Men Contribute $1,000 to
$4,000. Means the Greatest Carni-
val in Western Iowa This Fall,

Inc finance committee appointed by
the business men to solicit funds for
the Carnival has been at work with
the most gratifying results. AS pre-
dicted by the REVIEW, everyone.
whether at first favorable to the idea
or not, turned in and did their share
and as result handsome sum has
been raised which together with the
other sources of income places funds
at the disposal of the committee to
enable Denison to give the greatest
show ever given in a western Iowa
town. 1t is figured that Denison will
have total of nearly three thousand
dollars to spend during the four days of
the carnival and this sum will provide
dozens of attractions. parades, illumin-
atlons, decorations and all the other
appurtenances of a giddy round of
pleasure. The next step is the ap-
pointment OF committees; this should
be done at once. There should be
general management and number of
committees, each charged with par
ticular branch of the work. There is
much to be done and the work cannot
be commenced too early. We wish 1T
understood that this carnival will be
worth going miles to see. 1t is going
to be the gewholloper of the west, to
set the pace for all the street carnivals
OF the future and to knock the spots off
of everything that has gone before.

Moro Murderers Slain.

Manila, July 1.-Two of the Moros
who murdered Private Lewis have
been killed while resisting arrest.
Dato Adta Adma promised Colonel
Frank D. Baldwin OF the Twenty-sev-
enth infantry, who is in Mindanao,
that he would deliver the murderers
OF Lewis when they were captured.
The mutilated bodies of the two Moros
were consequently brought into the
American camp suspended from poles.

TROOPS TO PRESS
INSURGENTS MOROS

MANILA, August 1S.-The Moros in
Mindanao are renewing their attacks up
on the OutpoSts and pack trains of the
American column at Lake Lanao, which
is under the command of Captain j. j.
Pershng of the Fifteenth Cavalry. The
Americans have successfully repulsed the
Moro attacks and have suffered no loss.
The commanders of the American forces
in Mindanao report aggressive action
against the Moros to be necessary and
ask permission to move against Bacolod
and other strongholds of the hostile Mo-
hammedans. There are about 1000 Amer-
can soldiers in Mindanao available for the
desired aggressive movement. 1t is be
lieved this number is sufficient to defeat
the Moros, although 1t would possibly be
necessary to strengthen their base before
undertaking the movement.
WASHINGTON, August 1S.-A cable
dispatch has been received from General
Chaffee, stating that in his judgment an
active campaign against the Moros in
Mindanao was necessary in order to curb
the opposition that has been growing
against United States authority. The dis
patch was considered of sufficient impor-
lance to be repeated to President Roose-
welt at Oyster Bay. General Chaffee has
been directed to use his own discretion
in the matter, and will no doubt engage
in an aggressive movement against the
insurgent Moros. Some time before Sec
rotary Root left Washington the Moro
situation was under consideration. and
from dispatch then at hand the Secre-
tary was of the opinion that the Moros
must be dealt with severely before they
would respect the authority of the United
States
General Chaffee is now in Mindanao,
having left Manila some days ago. If the
campaign should continue for some time
he no DOUBT will remain in the Philip
pines, instead of leaving on September
3Oth as he had planned. 1t is understood
at the War Department that General
Chaffee has sufficient troops to make al
active campaign.

PERlLS OF Tint
PARTISAN STREETS

NEW YORK, Aug. 2S.-Quoting the
Francois the Evening edition of the
Matin. the Paris correspondent of the
World cables the following:
forty years of age. declared at IA cafe
table that he had lived for ten years
in the widest regions of Western
United States and never carried a wea-
pom and was never afraid. Several
Frenchmen who were present told him
that Paris was more dangerous.
They asserted that he could not go
from Grenelle to Montrouge, for ex-
ample, after 10 o'clock at night with
out being killed, unless he wore labor
er's clothes.
"Evandale left the cafe after time
without reverting to the conversation
about dangerous localities.
Next morning his companions of the
night before were Mortified to read of
the discovery of Evandale's body in the
glacis of the fortifications near the
Maison Blanche. 1t is supposed he

ly after leaving mis- friends.
Evidently he was attacked from be-
hind. Tight around his neck was found
a thin leather thong which had been
used to strangle him. His pockets were
ritled, his shoes and coat removed"
Inquiry by the World correspondent
tends to show that Evandale was an
Englishman instead of an American,
but had lived in Texas

JAPS NOT AFTER
WAKE ISLAND

WASHINGTON. August 1.-THE Jap
anese Minister, Mr.. Takahira. said today,
when asked as to the attitude of the Jap
anese Government in regard to the Mid
way Islands and Wake island of which
so much has been written lately. that the
japanese had no intention to claim SOW
ereignty over the islands and that when
the United States Government made GER
tain representation in relation to the Mid
way islands in January, 1901, the Japanese
Government at once declared to the same
effect. Mr. Takahira further said that II
the United States Government should
send n war vessel to the islands. as re-
ported in the newspapers, Japan would
expect only that due protection should be
given to japanese SUBJECTS who may be
found there as .Ong as they are engaged
in peaceful occupations. Aside from the
foregoing statement by the japanese Min
lister, II can be added from authoritative
Government sources that the most salts
factory feeling exists between the Ameri-
cans and japanese officials as to the good
faith of each and the harmonious adjust
ment of the question relating to Marcus

VOLCANIC
ACTIVITY
Earthquake Shock
Was Felt at
hilO.

"The volcano broke out again last
night, at the same time a heavy earth
quake shock was ielt at Hilo. a lake
of red hot lava is visible at the bottom
of the crater" says MIR. Berg. agent for
the Wider's Steamship Company at
Hilo, I'm letter to President c. l..
Wight of that company. The letter Is
dated August 26th and was received
yesterday by the steamer Helene which
arrived from Hawaii ports.
The officers of the steamer Helene
say that the outbreak of Kilauea was
accompanied by an earthquake. While
the vessel was lying at Papaaloa addi-
tional evidence of renewed activity was
secured. In the afternoon, reports
Captain Nicholson of the Helene,
the tide which always runs from tow
ards the Hilo side suddenly changed
direction and he considered this due
to some outbreak OF the volcano. Dur
ing the evening of that day rumblings
were heard, the steamers anchor chains
ratified, and the waters around were
greatly disturbed. This marine earth
quake caused the officers of the steamer
to get ready to put to sea but as II
soon subsidized they remained at Pa
paaloa.
All along the Hamakua coast there
was an earthquake at about three
o'clock the following morning and this
is reported to have been accompanied
by subterranean explosions.
The steamer Claudine Is due from
Hilo today and will probably have later
and more detailed reports of the out

MONITOR FOR
HARBOR WORK

The United States Navy Department
is preparing a new scheme for defense
of the smaller American ports and ISL
ands which have no shore batteries
Hawaii will probably be included in
this scheme, as there are no shore bat
teries here which can be used to defend
the islands from the possible attacks Of
a foreign fleet, and it is not always pos
sible to have a gunboat or cruiser in
these waters. For island defense small
monitors have been planned and one
of these for use on the Atlantic coast
has already been launched. This is the
Arkansas. and she is oIf1cially termed
a harbor defense monitor. She Is an
Interesting vessel.
The Arkansas has a beam of so feet,

placement of 1886 tons will draw only
