Now, Jim the chum said, after the
young minister had thanked him. there is
one thing l would like to have you remem-
Der when you preach at our church. Nearly
all of our people are away, but, strange to
say, the majority of those that are still in
town are deaf. They haven't been able to
hear the supplies we have had so far. So
please do use every bit of voice you have to
make those people hear what you have to
say"
Accordingly, the minister, remembering
his chum's Instructions, let loose the full
strength of his voice when he conducted
the services at the church in question on
the following Sunday, and the minister-ler
it be remarked here, while not of especially
robust build, has been endowed by nature
with vocal organs of particularly power
full variety
The minister said, in telling the story,
that he noticed, with both surprise and
pleasure, that the greater part of the con-
gregation was seated near the front, in
stead Of off in the rear seats. in most
summer congrega tons. He didn't use all
of his strength, he says in the opening
prayers, but waited for the sermon. when
he went at 1t for all he was worth. At any
sign of restleSsness uneasiness he re-
doubled his efforts.
When the service was over one Of the
officials went to the clergyman-the chum
was out of town, by the way-and, after
he had been greatly surprised to find the
preacher the possessor of such a powerful
voice. Your friend" he said told us
that you were a good preacher, but that
your voice was extremely weak, and that 1t
was difficult to hear you unless one sat far
. up toward the front. So we brought every
body as near the pulpit as possible
But ! understood the minister said,
that, through some mysterious dispense
ton Of Providence, nearly all your people
were deaf
Explanations followed, and 1t was we'll
for the chum just then that he was spend
ing Sunday out of town.

IN CHESS CIRCLES

The ninth game Of the match between
Messrs. Walker and Sournin for the Dis
trict chess championship was played a
week ago Saturday might and taken by Mr.
Walker. making hts fourth win. while Mr..
Sournin has captured three and two have
been drawn. -
A general view of the game is that White
(Sournin) early attained an attack that
looked, to the bystanders at least, very
serious, and even made the queen look a
little shaky 1t is the stage of the game
when most errors are made, but Black was
steady. and only even exchanges resulted,
freeing position and leaving an even game.
Whites had made the tactical mistake of
leaving his kings bishop unmoved, and so
nearly out of the game, while his rock was
entirely so, and committed the decisive
mistake of calculating that he could give
up those two queen side pawns for the
bishop. He evidently calculated for an at
tack against the adverse king which he
never had time to inaugurate.

BURGLARS KILL BANK CLERK.
He Had Bravely Resisted Their Efforts
at Robbery.

A dispatch from Laporte, Ind, yesterday
says: Wesley Reynolds, aged sixteen, en-
ployed as clerk in the bank at Westville in
this county, was, shot. and killed at an early
hour this morning by robbers who had
broken into the place and were about to
blow open the safe. The men escaped in a
stolen rig. Adolph Koontz, passing the
building early this morning. discovered a
broken window and called to Reynolds, but
received no response He reported the cir
cumstance to E. S. Smith, owner of the
bank who investigated, finding his clerk
dead in pool of blood on the floor. At his
side were empty revolver and another
partially empty Examination showed evil
dences of a desperate battle. More than
twenty shots had been exchanged. From
the trail of blood left by the robbers it is
believed one of them was wounded The rig
in which they escaped was abandoned six
miles south of Westville. Sheriff Small
and a posse Of men are securing the coun-
try for the men. A reward Of $1,000 has
been offered for the apprehension of the
robbers. Pinkerton detectives sent to the

MARCHED ACROSS MINDANAo.
Captain Pershing Finds the Moros
Friendly-Ladrone Cruelty.

A dispatch from Manila yesterday SAYS:
Captain Pershing, with sixty men, has com
pleted a march across the Island of Minda-
mao from Camp Wears to Yligan. This is
possibly the first time that white men have
ever made the journey. Captain Pershing
visited the villages of Madaya and Marahui
On his way to Madaya he found the Moros
were surprised to learn that Americans
were not monsters ten feet tall, with horns
and tails. At Marahui he addressed five
hundred Moros telling them of the friend
ly purposes of the Americans Representa-
tives Of the Nato and Bocayutan tribes
which are now at war, asked Captain Per-
shing to arbitrate the difference between
them. The captain agreed to visit them and
give his arbitration on his return journey
to Camp Vickers. No hostility was shown
toward the column on the march.
The constabulary in the Zambales Prov
ince reports a repulsive incident of cruelty
perpetrated by ladrones. Several columns
of constabulary had been chasing the la
drones with the assistance Of friendly ma
tives. Five Of the friendlies struggled from
the column and were captured by ladrones
who amputated the tongue and gouged out
the eyes of one friendly. and then sent him
back to the onstabulary. The fate of the
other four is unknown.
The efforts to restore agriculture in the
Philippine Islands have been blocked by
dearth of field animals Ninety per cent of
the carabaos died in the original epidemic
Of rinderpest and of the small number i'm
ported since, many have died. The gov
eminent had planned extensive importa-
ton of these animals to meet the crying
need, and had arranged to have them i'm
munized. 1t was forced to abandon this
plan on account Of the lack of money to
meet the purchases. The general cultiva-
tion of the plantations Is impossible with
out them, and the absence of any immediate
prospect of getting the field animals leaves
the agricultural situation in serious con-
dition.

Capt. Charles B. Sanford, who for many
years was the ruling spirit OF the Boston

Conn, and had his first experience in

He took naturally to the business, and rose
rapidly to be master and owner. At one

At another time the Cambridge ran into

had his clean score spoiled by Mr.. Sabln in
a weli-played contest. This was much to

in. Mr. Achenbach still keeps his record
unbroken. but if all who have him marked

HANNA's ARGUMENT.
Why He Wants the Panama Canal
Route Chosen.

Washington, June 6.-Senator Hanna,
who is leading the fight for the Panama
route, illustrated his speech in favor of
the Spooner amendment in the senate
with number OF maps, showing the
volcanoes on the isthmus. The senator
laid particular stress on the fact that
there were more in the neighborhood
of the Nicaragua route than in that of
Panama route. The Panama route, he
said, was only forty-nine miles long
while that of Nicaragua was 1873 miles
in length. "You build your canal" said
he, ito provide for the passage of ships
from ocean to ocean, in the least pos
sible time and at the least expense" A
canal constructed on such lines, he in
sisted, meant success. He said he was
looking at the proposition for it's COM
mercial advantages as well as its ad-
vantages as means of defense. BY
stubborn facts and by the findings of
the best engineers in the country he
had been compelled to change his views
which originally had been in favor of
the Nicaragua route. He maintained
that the cost of the Nicaragua canal
woul.>be immensely greater in point of
construction and operation than the
Panama canal and said he was pre-
pared to demonstrate that the Nicara-
qua canal could not, be operated at
night

Four Skeletons Found in Mound
Near Rock Rapids.
Rock Rapids, June 6-ln making
a. new road down the bluffs on the
Kanavanzie creek, two miles north
east of town, the graders while making
am S-foot cut thru a moundlike hill
found the remains of four Indian bod
les. When discovered the skeletons
were in.a fair state of preservation,
but soon crumbled when exposed.
For years this portion of the country
had held evidences Of Indian graves
but no excavations were ever made un-
til change in the highway made IL
necessary A few years ago curiously
shaped stones were found near the
spot, and one resembling hammer
was found only a few years ago.
The Sioux, who frequently visited
here several years ago, claimed there
were many braves buried along tho
Kanaranzie, but they either did not
know or would not tell the location.
One old man said that a big battle
was fought many years ago on the Tom
creek and Kanaranzie and that many
Sioux We're killed; also that many
Blackfeet, who We're their enemies, fell
in that battle. The skeletons unearthed
are possibly the remains of some who
fell in the struggle.

BAD STORM IN NEBRASKA.

Beatrice. Neb June 6.-Reports re-

hours. Streets in the towns of Cort-
land, Princeton and Pickerell were un-
able to carry away the immense vol
ume of water and the Easements of
dwellings and stores We're flooded, do
ing a great amount of damage. Crops
in great many places were total
loss.
Greeks and other streams became
raging torrents and number of people
on the low lands were compelled to re-
move to places of safety. The water
ran over the Union Pacific tracks be-
tween Pickerell and Cortland to depth
of two feet and in some places washed
out number of bridges and culverts.
Several trains were held until morning,
waiting for the waters to subside, and
washed-out tracks to be repaired
Large gangs of men are working on the

ARE NELL ORGANIZED

the Present Situation in the

Nearly All the Important Prov-

cablegram from Acting Governor
Wright, of the Philippines.
Manila, May, 23.-With reference to
your cablegram of the 10Th; outside
Moro, the only portion of the archipela-
go not organized under civil govern
ment are Lepanto, Bontoc, Batangas,
Laguna, Principe, Infanta, Mindora,
Samar and Paragual and other small
groups. No armed insurrection in any
to peaceful conditions why civil govern
ment in all may not be now estab-
lished. Special government for
Bontoc and Lepanto, inhabited
exclusively by peaceful Igorrotes.
will be organized in a few days. Will
organize civil government in Laguna
Immediately. Batangas formerly orr
ganized was turned over to the military
authorities by the Philippine commit
tee act No. 173; will repeal the same to
take effect July 4th. The only reason
for not giving the act immediate effect
is many people in the province have
only recently returned to their homes
and in order to prevent the possibility
of suffering I think it best to have the
military look after them until the date
named, because the latter have per-
feet organization, which the civil au-
thorities lack. Crops now being planted
will mature by August 1st. Whilst
Principe and Infanta could be organized
at once, it is difficult to look after them
until we receive vessels now building,
say by September 1st. The Mindoro
and Paraguan group of large islands
are sparsely populated and difficult of
access without vessels. For these rea-
sons I think best to leave the military
temporarily in charge because theyhave
transportation facilities. Under the
Spanish regime Bontoc, Lepanto. Prin-
cipe, Infanta and Paraguan group did
not have provincial government, and
were commanded by military officers
and Mindoro was attached to Marin
duque. Major General Chaffee concurs
in the above.
