Olas was published, nearly thirty years
ago, many weekly and monthly publ

gone; but st. Nicholas still holds its
place. the unrivalled prince OF peri

more enjoyed by its readers than now.

ries short articles. etc, there Is a de
partment called The st. Nicholas
League in which the children them,
selves have an opportunity to take
part. There are said to be nearly hs

Comment On the Report of
Gen. Miles On His Philip
pine Tour
POSTOFFICE IRREGUI IARITIES
Postms ster Generals Vigorous
Efforts In Clearing up the
Alleged Frauds
Washington, ID. c., May

Washington, ID. c., May l.
General Miles has at last made pub
lie through the war department the
charges which grew out Of his tour
of inspection of the Philippines. They
ally, have caused considerable COM
ment in army circles here, but hardly
of the nature which the General ex-
pected. If 1t was his intention to
discredit the administration. as the
report would seem to imply. he has
failed signally, as the comment caus-
ed by the criticisms takes the form
of hard criticism that should have
proved so puerile and so little based
on trustworthy evidence. At best
they are the mere reiteration of ex-
ploded and forgotten arguments put
forth by, "anti-imperialists on the
slight basis of hearsay and unsworn
native testimony. 1t is plain that
something new was expected, and the
main trend of conversation among
army officers is that the commanding
general should rake up water-cure
stories. where the officers and men ac-
cused have been tried fairly and ac-
quilted. General Adna r. Chaffe ex-
pressed the sentiments of his brother
officers when he said: There is
simply nothing to say regarding the
report. 1t is only a restatement OF
what has been published before a
number of times and the officers have
been tried already" An open letter
from George c. Squires, brother-in-
law of Major Glenn, who comes in for
a number of structures in the report
answers General Miles in terms that
would hardly be polite from one not
in civilian ranks. but certain OH
car in the Marine Corps. whose name
is obviously withheld, but VINO mas
seen service in the Philippines, ao-
mits to your correspondent that MT.
Souires, who is lawyer of st. Paul.
Mimi, is practically right when ne
saws, not even your prejudice against
the administration. or the well-found-
ed impression that you went to the
Philippines to find fault with the ex-
isting conditions. is a sufficient JUS
tifieation for the general of a great
army. which has gone through untold
hardships and privations, to announce
to the world upon unsupported tesu-
mony. that his brother officers, grad
mates of the finest of all military
schools. are unworthy of the uniforms
which they wear"

ceived from the islands by the Civil
Service commission asking that teach
ers for the Philippines be included in
the classified service. and furnished
to the educational department of the
islands on examination by the COM
mission. Several other means of Sc
lecting teachers have been tried but
after the attempts of two years it has
been decided that the best results can
be obtained through the commission.
This is decided victory for civil SER
vice and a gratifying conclusion to
Commissioner Foulke. The inclusion
Of the teachers positions practically
completes the classification of the
Philippine civil service. Examinations
for the positions now open, and 1t is
understood that there will be a large
number by September 1st, will be held
In June or JULY. so that teachers who
wish to try for positions may be ex-
amined in vacation time

WILL EMPLOY MORE MEN
Outlook Good for Unusual AC-
tivity in FIowery District

The last issue of the Virginia Report
has the following: The outlook for
unusual activity in the mining indus
try, not only ON the Comstock, but in
Flowery district, Silver City and Como
this year is flattering In Flowery
district the improvements contemp-
lated by the Equitable company will
result in a material increase in the
number of men employed, and 1t is al
most certain that another company
will be operating there before the
close of the current year. Including
the Kinkead mill, Fishers mill, Wood
bury and Buffers plants, there are
nearly one hundred men employed in
the mining and milling industry.
In Silver City district the most inn
portant work in progress is the ex-
ension of the Daney drain tunnel un-
der the management of James H.
Kinkead The tunnel has Deen en-
larged to within short distance of
where it should reach the ore body
that will go far toward paying the
cost of the project, and it's extension
is certain to cut other ore bodies of
probably more value than were devel-
oped in driving it to the present face.
At Dayton Messrs. Davis and Gig
noux employ constantly thirty-five
men, the Rocky Point mill being kept
in continuous operation, crushing ore
purchased from the Silver Hill Mining
company too low in grade to be haul
ed profitably except by the owner
of milling plant Professor Phillips
is employing about fifteen men in his
milling plant and is extracting low
grade ore from the Cosmopolitan
mine, upon which he has a lease.
In Como district forty men are en-
ployed in the North Rapidan in driv-
ing the drain tunnel and the mill
recently erected by the company will
soon be dropping its stamps on ore
from another location acquired by the
