AMERICANS AXE HoMEsIcK.
his L. Civ IN as q Reason for the Phys
ical Collapse of Those in the
Philippines.

Manila, Jan. 13.-The news received
rom Batangas province is cheerful.
The expedition to Loboo, in Batan-
gas, has been complete success. The
columns under Coils. Whit and Wells
have destroyed a large number of
barracks and hamlets and enough
rations to keep 10000 Filipinos for
six months. There was not a single
American casualty during the entire
expedition. The enemy fled before
the Americans, many of them were
killed and several surrendered.
Medical authorities here assert
that considerable portion of the
breaking down among American resi-
dents of the Philippine islands is due
to inconsistencies. The newspapers of
Manila are urging the United States
Philippine commission to make an ap-
preparation for a daily cabled news
service from the United States, thus
bringing Americans here into closer
touch with their home life.

Not Typical Of Slave Life.

Lexington, KY, Jan. 11.-Lexington
chapter, United Daughters of Confed
eracy, sent written petition to
Charles B. Scott, manager of the Lex
ington opera house, asking that the
play ''Uncle Toms Cabin" never be
played again at the opera house here.
They give reasons that the best citi-
zens and old families living in and
about Lexington were once slaveown-
ers as heritage, not of their own
choosing; that the incidents of uncle
Toms Cabin" are not typical of slave
life in the south, but of isolated cases;
that the production, the play and its
being advertised with bloodhounds
and pictures of an old negro in chains
and a slaveowner with whip in hand,
give false idea of the history of the
times to the children of the city and
shows direspect to the southern gen
tlemen and good citizens and their
families in this part of the country
The petition has created a sensation
here.
