PANAMA, March 19.--According to advices received here from Honduras by way of San Salvador, the forces of General 'Bonilla, the president elect of Honduras, who is fighting against Gen. eral Sierra, the retiring president, who refused to hand over the office to Bo- nilla, have captured the town of Santa Barbara, while his generals, Miguel and Dayila, with 1,200 men, and Gen. erals Carlos and Alvarado, with 2,OO0 men, are now threatening Tegucigalpa, the capital of Honduras. Generals Vil- lela and Vallares, who were supporting General Sierra, have been tried by court martial and shot by the latter's order because they did not fulfill his instructions and thus brought about his defeat at Aceituno several days ago.

 That was a mistake, for it gave Mary an opportunity to retaliate: ''The best way to go around the truth, as you call it, is by a direct lie. My lie was no worse than yours.

PHYSIOLOGY IN SCHOOLS
Physician Declares That Text Books
 Serve to Make Pupils Ignorant.

In lecture on Tuberculosis and Children in the hall of the United Charities Building in New York Mon day night, Dr A. Jacobi severely SCOT ed the legalized teaching ill New York public schools on, physiology and hy- giene. He called it rot and advised it's displacement by few simple rules "a little knowledge combined with common sense. The lecture was given under the auspices of the committee on the prevention of tuberculosis of the Charity organization society.
 Tuberculosis kills as many people, old and young" he began, "as diph- theIia, croup, measles, whoopfng cough, scarlet fever and typhoid fever put together" s
 He then detailed the various ways in which tuberculosis infected the young, and how, frequently, it was found in the bones, in the intestinal organs and in the brain. He warned parents of the folly of not having infantile dis eases attended to by competent medi- cal skill. "The best doctor" he said, lis none too good for your baby.''
 Teachers in tfie schools also could do great deal, but he condemned the system of physiology now taught in the schools through the efforts of Mrs Mary H. Hunt and the Woman's Christian Temperance union.
 Thousands of New York cases of bronchitis. pneumonia and tubercu- losis." said the doctor, "could be avoid ed, if D little knowledge e--this is all that seredifret4Awere combined with fair amount of common sense. I say a little knowledge, for I am firmly convinced that the rules that teachers should be directed to communicate to their classes could be put into a tract of seven or eight pages.
 s'Instead of that, an incredible amount of ignorance, joined with fa- naticism.. is legalized as indispensable instruction in our publfc schools. If you wish some disgusting entertain, ment read the text books to see with what rot the minds of our children are stocked, or rather confused-books that are paid for out of the taxes of the people. Our legislature, our children and our schools are. at the mercy of Huntism and Eddyism. It is matter for ridicu1e.

BOSTON, March 19.-Boston's news paper men rendered reception to Lieu tenant General Nelson A. Miles at the Press club yesterday afternoon. Among the prominent members of the club present were Governor Bates, Lieuten- ant Governor Guild, Secretary of State Olfn and Mayor Collins. At the conclu- sion of the reception luncheon was served. During the day General Miles located the dollar deposited by him in a bank near city hall i'll 1860. He had often recalled the deposit, he said, but had forgottenst the name of the bank. The institution has verified the deposit. No interest has accumulated, as no sum under $3 has earning power. The bank treasurer said that he would con- sider it favor if the general would come and get his dollar and close the account.
