News From Winners.

All winners were paid last week. Some
of them called at our office and we had
the pleasure of seeing them as well as
paying them.
During the two weeks open to claimants
there was not single unfair claim pre-
sented. The fakirs have, at last, learned
that no sort of bluff or Misrepresentation
can get a prize away from the real win
ner.
Comrade w. +. Bright, Brazil, Ind,
winner Goth prize, reports as follows:
Born in Indiana, 1912. Worked on
farm until the war broke out. Enlisted
April, 1861, in Co. Il, 18th Ind. one year.
Mustered out May, 1862. Re-enlisted

before Misunderstanding committee. Such
is human testimOny.
Foragine on the part Of soldiers as in
dividuals was strictly prohibited after the
first few weeks of the campaign. The
| morning after the fight around Manila
soldiers strenmed into the city by every
| road carrying chickens they had found
bout the deserted houses in the suburbs.
This wasSpromptly shut down upon, as
well as all looting the authorities could
| get trace .iOf. Further out in the field
| chickens continued to form part of the
| ration for q few days, but strict orders
finally reavhed the extreme front, and ar
| rest and Upunishment fell upon quite
number OF chicken-eaters.
The Philippine chicken is a knowing
| bird. He is well aware that a clump OF
| bamboo is a safe refuge, and he makes
| dive for it as soon as soldier directs
covetOus eyes upon him. These clumps
are in every yard and there is always
refuge handy. About the base of the
clump is a perfect bramble of young
growth, all bristling with long, sharp and
stiff thorns. 1t is impossible even to in
sert an arm into the mess, yet chicken
makes his way into it so quickly that it Is
hopeless to chase him. This is why the
FilipinOs use arrows and blow-guns for
shooting chickens, and it was these chick
en-killing weapons the men carried home
with them which gave the impression that
the Fiipinos were fighting us with them
when they were in fact using long range
Mausers upon us. Our men were accus-
toned to taking all but pinch of powder
out of cartridge and then shooting
chicken with the bullet, the discharge max
ing scarcely any noise and not attracting
attention. Strict orders had been issued
against firing pieces. except on duty.
Pigs also were subjects of foraging, but
when it became known that the hogs were
devOuring dead bodies it scarcely needed
the orders that were issued to cut hog
meat out of the mems diet.

exaggerated purposely, as did others who
wrote narrowing tales that made the old
grannies kick up their heels: At all
events, when Christmas came there were
sent out to the regiment by relatives and
friends some 1000 Christmas boxes with
good things. in them. Some doting pa
rents went to the grocery store and pur-
chased for their poor starving boys, who
were at that very minute eating so much
they had to be sent to the hospital, some
cans Of nice ''roast beef" and sent them
over in the Christmas boxes. l saw one
of these boxes opened. In joyous expecta-
tion the recipient took up a can and looked
at the label. An expression of astonish-
ment spread over his face, followed by
one of disgust. Away went the can about
80 feet, as he exclaimed:
"Well, I'll be -. If they haven't
sent me lot of canned horse"
Such were the different views Of the
same article. The folks at home thought
it good enough to send 5000 miles across
the sea in Christmas boxes, and the boys
who had become sick of eating it declared
it was canned horse, rotten and putrid.

to that effect the soldiers from Cuba gave
