SAN MIGUEL WAS KILLED.
The Filipino Ladrone Leaders, Body
Identified and Delivered TO TEL
atives for burial.

Manila, March 29.-The report that
San Miguel, the Filipino leader, was
killed in Fridays fight near Marti-
quina is confirmed. His body has
been identified and delivered to his
relatives for burial
San Miguel, with his bodyguard
consisting of 80 men, abandoned the
fort at Mariquina and attempted to
escape, but the Macabebe scouts sur
rounded the party, 1nortally wounded
San Miguel and killed six of his body
guard. After he fell San Miguel emp
tied his revolver among the Maca-
bebes and died fighting.
San Miguel was the last unrecon-
ciled Filipino insurgent. He failed to
attain prominence during the insur-
rection.
The bodies of the insurgents killed
in the fighting at Mariquina, to the
number of about so, were taken to
Caloocan and were surrendered to the
relatives of the dead.
Lieut.. Reese and the other wound
ed scouts will recover.

LESSON FOR TRAVELLERS.
Notable INSTANCE of fhe inexorAbis
Enforcement OF Ineie >ams
CustOms Laws.

Smuggling is a crime much more Sc
rious in the eyes Of the government Of
ficials than in those Of many persons
that cross the Atlantic every summer
or SO. How serious il is was Illus
trated in New York, when a United
States district court judge ordered the
Jury 10 find a verdict for the govern
ment against wealthy Mrs. Dulles,
charged with bringing pearl necklace
into this port surreptitiously, writes
a CORES pondent OF the Pittsburg Ga
zette. The result of the Judges order
i that Mrs. Dulles lost her necklace,
which cost 5000 francs in Paris, and
is valued in this country at $4,000
The defendant wore the necklace
ashore from the steamer under shirt
waist. and did not declare il until she
was asked about it by a customs otfi-
Ger. Then she Brought il forth and de-
MED that she intended 10 smuggie.
Her husband. who, obviously, is a rich
man, was indignant that there should
be any doubt thrown upon his wife's
or his own integrity, and fought the
ease vigorously i'll court. The Juoge
believed it was clear case, however,
and did not even leave il to the dis
erection of the jury, but ordered them to
decide against the defendant, which
means that the United States takes
the necklace as punishment of the
attempt to evade the payment of duty.
On jewelry the duty is very high-6o
per cent adj valorem. The temptation
to bring it into the country without
paying the import charges to the rev.
enue department is very great, there
fore, and unless passengers con-
sciences are exceedingly tender, the
customs authorities believe they have
strong reason to be suspicious Of near
ly everybody. 1T is probable that this
Dulles decision will be appealed to an.
other court, but if the case is as clear
as the judge to-day considered it was,
there is little if any hope OF any re-
lief for the day. The loss of $4,000
article is something to make would-be
smugglers hesitate, and there is a
strong hope in the custom house that
this case will have a deterrent effect
on other Atlantic voyagers who might
try to save money at the expense of
Uncle Sam

THE TOMB OF ABRAHAM.
Failure of a Harvard Graduate to
Gain Permission to Excavate
"TeI Ibrahim."

No surprise was manifested at the
University of Pennsylvania at the in
| formation received from Constants
nopIe that the sultan of Turkey had
again refused a ''frmin" or permits
sion to an American named Banks to
eXcavate "Tel Ibrahim," mountain
about nine hours ride northeast of
/, the ruins of Babylon, where tradi-
! ton of the country has it that the
tomb of Abraham is situated, says
the Philadelphia Inquirer.
There are two of these so-called
''Tombs of Abraham" in this region,
the one Mr.. Banks desired to eXca-
vate and the other southwest of Baby
Ion, where tradition says the Tower of
Babel was situated. Interest is at
tached to both places owing to the
ruins of buildings of an ancient peo-
pie and to the traditions invested in
them by the Arabs and Turks, but
archaeologists do not believe that
either is the site of the tomb of
Abraham, locating the last resting
place of the patriarch of the chill
dren of Israel in the Cave of Mach
pelah, near Hebron, in Palestine,
where Abraham buried his wife
Sarah.
Two years ago Mr. Banks, who is
a graduate from Harvard, made eff
forts to secure permission from the
sultan of Turkey to eXcavate the Ur
or City of Chaldees on the western
bank of the Mesopotamia.
1t is said that John d. Rockefeller
contributed $4,000 to the fund which
Mr.. Banks raised to defray the ex
penses of the expedition he was or
ganizing. He returned to Constants
nople and as the representative OF
several American universities, includ-
ing, it is said, Harvard, he applied to
the porte for permission to eXcavate.
Refusal was made by the sultan
owing, it is said, to the religious as.
sociations of the so-called tomb of
Abraham, many of the Mohammedans
believing that the mountain, which is
the place mentioned as Cuthal in
Second Kings in the Bible, is really
the site of the burying place of Abra
ham. In addition to the question of
offending the religious beliefs of the
natives of the country, it is said that
while Mr.. Banks was consul at the
City of Bagdad he incurred the dis
pleasure of the porte.
1t was declared at the university
that it is problematical whether
Banks will ever secure permission to
excavate in any part of the Otto
man empire, although the sultan has
always been cordial toward exploring
expeditions, especially those from
and at present party of
German scientists are at work MOI
far from where Banks desired t.
tXcavate.

BERRY CULTURE.

Glowing reports come of successful
berry culture in the Yakima Valley,
State of Washington. Five years ago
the valley was in condition of
financial collapse and partial aban-
donment, The land had for years
been devoted almost exclusively to
hops, and when the bottom dropped
out of the hop market ruin and bank
ruptcy followed Then some Of the
more thoughtful farmers planted a
few berries, by way of experiment,
and were rewarded by abundant sue
cess. The business grew and spread,
until now the valley is largely planted
to berries, about three-fourths of
which are Cuthbert and other red
raspberries, and the balance black
berries. Some of the products are
sent bv rail as far east as St. Paul,
but the greater part find their market
in the mountain cities. Two years
ago an association of growers was
formed to regulate the marketing.
The business has proved extremely
successful, all Of the growers receiv-
ing good returns, and some making
a handsome yearly income from few
acres.
Now, here is an object lesson
worthy Of the attention of New Eng
land farmers. They possess many ad-
vantages. in near proximity to market,
over their brothers of the remote
northwest, while enjoying fully as
favorable soil and climate for small
fruits culture. Orchard fruits attain
a perfection in the State of Washing
ton not seen elsew here on the CONT
nent, but for berries and small fruits
it has no natural advantages over New
England. If berries can be profitably
raised there and sent half way across
the continent, why should not New
England farmers be at least equally
as successful. with unlimited markets
right at their doors IN. e. Farmer.

FIRED BY LIGHTNING

A house and horse barn belonging
to Henry BIassaw, just over the
Mortified line and about one and one
half miles from the head of Berlin
pond, were burned on Friday night
about 10 O'Clock. During the heavy
electric storm lightning struck the
barn and almost instantly it was all
on fire. Two horses were saved but
some pigs were burned. The flames
then spread to the house which was
entirely burned in spite of efforts to
save it, Nearly all the household
goods we're burned. One barn located
| across the road was saved. The prop
erty was insured in the Vermont Muo-
ual for $3.50 but the loss is above
that and it is said there was other
insurance.
