Picking up the letter she had written

A Dog Which a1ksd.

When two years old Ben was noted
for intelligence and industry. One of the
hcrders remarked of him, one day, that
he could do anything except talk. Moss

Anything except talk lie retorted.
"lIc can talk. Why, we do Il lot of talk

eyes, with his ears. with his tail, some

The others laughed at this, but it was
true. The man and the dog, i'll the hours

IT'S The Last Rose OF Summer.

Ills the last rose of summer.

Or give sigh for sigh.

To pine on the stem;
Since the lovely are sleeping,
Go. sleep thou with them.
Thus kindly scatter.

And from Lows shining circle
The gems drop away!

Much Trouble and Several Arrests
Among the Subway Strikers.

Among the Subway Strikers.
NEW YORK, May 15.-Members of the
Excavators' and Rockmens Unions held a
joint meeting to-day and discussed their
difficulties with the contractors. especially
those concerned in the subway work. These
strikers decided to maintain their position
and keep away from work There were
no special incidents to the meeting. Pickets
of strikers in groups Of five were stationed
on all the corners in the Italian quarter.
They talked with strikers who seemed to
be inclined to go back. These strikers de-
cided to maintain their position and keep
away from work.
When the Italian subway strikers threat
ened a workman in the Bronx to-day he
brandished a revolver. A policeman ar
rested him, while the strikers escaped.
The workman was subsequently released
by the magistrate before whom he was
arraigned. Two hundred Italian striking
workers warned seventy-five workmen In
Four of the strikers were arrested.
The contractors on the subway declared
that they had greatly increased their forces

He Says He Has a Regard for the Hon

by No other Persons.
INSISTS ON VERIFY OF CHARGES
BUT DOES NOT HOLD THE WHOLE
ARMY RESPONSIBLE.
Says the Worst Onenses I'm the Philip
pines Were Committed on Direct
Orders OF Omcers.

NEW YORK, May 15.-The Army and
Navy Journal will print tomorrow letter
from Gen. Nelson A. Miles in which the
writer says that he went to the Philippine
islands, not as a tourist, but in an official
capacity. and that the instructions adj
dressed to him as lieutenant general ''com-
handing the army came from the highest
authority. viz. the President. in which he
was directed to give especial attention TO
the instruction. discipline and supplies Of
the army"
In referring to his official report on the
Philippines General Miles says: mo one
can have a more sacred regard for the
honor of the army than myself"
Coming to the subject OF cruelties in the
Philippines, General Miles's letter reads as
follows:
ut is idle to assume that campaigning in
the Philippines has conditions that war;
rant resort to medieval cruelty and de-
parture from the honorable method OF con-
Quoting warfare, and that such departures
as have existed should be overlooked and
condoned.
1T is most gratifying that the serious
offenses have not been committed by the
soldiers unless they were under the direct
orders OF certain officers who were respon-
sible. Soldiers have withheld fire when
ordered to shoot prisoners, protested
a6oihs. acts VI cruelty anu WRITTEN 10 reld-
tives at home urging them to take action to
put a stop to those crimes. 1t will ever
be one OF the glories of the army that such
deeds, committed by whatever authority,
are abhorrent to the American soldier. The
officers who are responsible do not by any
means constitute the American army, and
there must be very unmistakable line
drawn between the great body of honorable
and faithful officers and brave soldiers
whose records have been conlmendable
and those, of whatever station, whose acts
have received and should receive the earn
est condemnation of all honorable men,"
