FROM THE PHILIPPINES.

Prof. Chas. L. HOye Writes of Present Con-
ditiOns in the Islands.
Writing under date of Novemb Der II
from San Mateo, Rial Province, Phil
ippIne Islands, to THE REPUBLICAN
Prof. Chas. E. Hoye, a former Gar
rett countian but now engaged in
teaching in the Islands, says, con-
corning present conditions in the
Archipelago:
To the Editor of The Republican.
Many parts of the Philippine Isl
ands, especially the three provinces
near Manila, are suffering from bands
of outlaws, some common thieves and
others claiming to be insurgents.
A few guns were not surrendered at
the end of the Instruction; now in
civil provinces bad men have collect
ed these for the purpose of terroriz-
ing and robbing the peaceful people,
and a few ambitious leaders even
hope to begin new instruction.
The American soldiers are being
withdrawn from the small towns and
concentrated near the cities. About
November 1st all soldiers were with
drawn from this part of Rial Proy-
ince except those in our own town.
Directly armed bands of outlaws
entered some towns. In Mariquina,
four miles away, the ''ladrones" rob
bers) took possession of the town for
several hours and robbed the town
treasury. Other towns were entered
and the people forced to contribute
money and food.
All American teachers were with
drawn except in my town. Some ma
tives of wealth who had been friendly
to the American government fled to
Manila for safety. The native police,
or constabulary, were hurried in and
are at present after the ladrones.
Four companies of troops were sent
out from Manila to aid the native po-
lice by guarding the towns.
Such is the situation today in our
neighborhood. There are about 300
organized ladrones in the province
with about $50 native police under
American officers after them.
We hope all will be quiet again in a
few weeks.
The Commission has passed a law
fixing the penalty for robbers caught
with arms to be death or twenty years
in prison.
We are not afraid in San Mateo,
and all the excitement of robbery,
marching soldiers and skirmishes
near have not effected our school,
which is very prosperous at present.
But the dreaded cholera is again
among us; we were two months free
of it, but now We have three cases,
with two deaths. We live on the
water supply of Manila and rigid
guard is kept on the river to prevent
infection.
Sincerely,
CHAs. E. HOVE.

Proverbs

When the butter won't
come put a penny in the
churn," is an old time dairy
proverb. 1t often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them SCOTS Emul-
sion.
1t is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be-
cause it is so perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children SCOTS Emulsion
is the most satisfactory treat
ment.

pleasing effect
The cars are lighted with both
Pintsch gas and electricity, and are
also provided with electric fans. An
exquisite individual effect is given
each table by electric candleabra.

and silver are in perfect accord with
the surroundings, that most import

Brain-Food Nonseese.

Another ridiculous food fad has
been branded by the most COM
petent authorities. They have
dispelled the silly notion that one
kind of food is needed for brain,
another for muscles, and still
another for bones. A correct diet
will not only nourish a particular
part of the body, but It will sustain
every other part. Yet however
good your food may be, its nutri-
ment is destroyed by indigestion
or dyspepsia. You must prepare
for their appearance or prevent
their coming by taking regular
doses of Green's August Flower,
the favorite medicine Of the healthy
millions. A few doses aids di-
gestion, stimulates the liver to
healthy action, purifes the blood
and makes you feel buoyant and
vigorous. You can get this reliable
remedy at all druggists. Price
