SUDDEN RUSH BY PRISONERS.
Three Americans Left to Guard Eff
ty FilipinOs-Captain's Indis-
cretiOn Criticised.

Manila, May 1s.-Capt. Clough Over
ton, of the Fifteenth cavalry, and
Private Harry Noyes, who were killed
May Is at Sucatlan, Mindanao, met
their death at the hands of insurgent
prisoners whom they were guarding.
Their companion in this duty, Private
Hartlow, was wounded at the same
time. Capt. Overton's troops of the
Fifteenth had been scouting in the de.
partment of Misamis, Mindanao, on
the trail of the insurgent leader
Flores. The cavalrymen captured SO
of F1ores'followers and confined them
in Il house at Sucatlan. Capt. OvertOn
and three men remained to guard the
prisoners while Lieut.. Cameron con
tinued in pursuit of Flores. The pris.
oners suddenly broke out of the
house where they were confined, Sc
cured their bolos and rushed the four
Americans on guard. Capt. Overton
was slashed with a bolo, and bled to
death. After escaping the insurgents
gathered and renewed the attack on
the Americans. The c%avalryman who
was not wounded repulsed the enemy
and defended his dead and wounded
companions until the return of Lieut.,
Cameron. Capt. Overton is criticised
for having kept only three men to
guard so and for neglecting to de-
stroy the insurgents bolos. Flores is
a Visayan and the majority of his
followers are Paganos living in the
Misamis mountains.

fered with Kidney trouble, which was so

pleased at the wonderful cure she herself
has received, that she is telling all her
friends and p~raising the medicine to every

BODY FOUND IN A RIVER.
GrewsOme Discovery Made by Two
Men While Fishing Near
Warsaw, Ind.

Warsaw, Ind, May 1s.-While fish
ing in the Tippecanoe river, Sunday,
Kyle and Frank Miller found the mu.
tilated and partly-naked body of a
wan. The trunk and legs, clothed
were in a wooden box, from which
part of the cover had been washed
away. The head and arms were
found in the water near the box. The
box and body were found in shallow
water near a secluded place along
the river to the north of Warsaw. Nc
one thus far has been able to identify
the body, although it is well pre-,
served. No one is reported missing
from Warsaw, and the police and cor.
oner, who are working on the case.
are inclined to think that the body
was shipped to Warsaw from some
city and hastily placed in the river.

AbOu to Search Him.

Douglas, Ariz., May 1S.-Deputy
Constable Tom Vaughn was instantly
killed and Constable Dan Graham Sc
riously injured by an outlaw named
Smith, who escaped and is being pur-
sued by a posse. The officers had
placed Smith under arrest on a
charge of being a suspicious charac-
ter. AS they were about to search
him he drew a pistol from his hip
pocket and began shooting. Before
the officers could pull their pistols
both were senseless on the sidewalk.
There were no witnesses present and
Smith made his escap into the dark

the shooting he fell and dropped an
old SLOUGH hat, this being the only
clew the officers have of his identity.
Smith is regarded as a desperate
character along the Mexican frontier.

crimes. Only a short time ago lie
