Washington has coined a new word-Philip-
pintis 1t is said to attack American naval and
military men in the Philippines. and its symo-
toms are said to be tired feeling, loss of mem
DRY and an indifference to doing things to-day.
'Mafana" is its watchword, and seems to be the
only word its victims never forget. Evidently
Ex-Governor Taft and Governor Wright did not
fall victims to the disease. Their memory of
Philippine events is remarkably good. as Judge
Parker doubtless remembers. and when it came
to formulating facts answer to campaign
canards Governor Wright unfortunately for the
promulgators. seemed to have forgotten ina
fana."

Our Board Of Aldermen is to be asked to make
more severe the penalty against carrying con-

the number of people who go armed about the
streets it might accomplish good. 1t may be
conceded that there are much fewer of the
timorous who persist in bearing pistols or

ATTEMPTS
TO ESCAPE

II. c. Lawrence male another
attempt to escape from the
county Jail Suaiar, ana had his
plans worked successfully he
would have failed to appear last
Monday morning for sentence.
Tn fact that he was planning
an escape WAS discovered by
Deputy Sheriff Sanford, who de-
tected a half broken link in the
shackles worn by Lawrence. \
further Investigation showed
that the wooden walls of the
jail above the steel tank in Law
rence's cell had been deeply cut
and the boards ready TO be re-
moved. No tools could be found
and LaWreuce's statement that
he cut the chain by plnch1n2 1t
between the door and wall of
his cell Is taken as correct.
The sadckleS Were removed
from Lawrence and Il heavy
ball and chain attached II lbs
ankle. As soon as this opera
ton was performed, he showed
his Indignation by kicking the
heavy sphere, and it is safe to
say that he received no satisfdc-
ton for his trouble.
In conversation with Sheriff
Shirley. Lawrence jokingIy re-
marked about the insecurity OF
the jail.
You should have a better
jail he remarked.
"ItwouId take a pretty strong
one to hold YOU" replied the
Sheriff.
at should be steel lined" said
Lawrence.

otftnse to break out OF one kind
Of jail as another kind re-
piled the Sheriff, but | guess

retorted, but a How would

cHAFFEE MAKES AN ADDRESS.
The Chief Of star Urges the Importance Of
Young Men Becoming Members Of
+ the State Militia.

Albany, N. Y, Feb. 17.-Lieut. Gen.
Adna R. Chaffee, chief Of staff Of the
United States army, last night ad-
dressed a large gathering in the as
sembly chamber on Military Progress
Since 1861" He showed how the Span
ish war and the resulting military
conditions have aroused again the mill
itary enthusiasm which waned after
the civil war and dwelt upon the i'm
portance in time Of peace Of adequate
preparation for war.
"The 10000 organized militia In the
United States" continued he, should
be patriotically supported by all men
aIit women in the country, who should
make It personal matter with their
sons to the end that they learn how to
use army rifles and secure the honor
able status of having been a soldier
in the service Of the state. No man is
a loser because of such information and
experience.
Probably nothing short of actual
experiences of war could be Of greater
benefit to both army and militia" he
declared, "than maneuvers like those
in the middle west last year. II is
not improbable that by another year
we may arrange for operations on a
scale to employ 10000 men some where
near the Atlantic coast"

until eai1y Tuesday morning.
i According to the correspondent Of
the Paris edition Of the New York
Herald at Chefoo the Japanese torpedo
boats succeeded In entering the outer
harbor by o ruse; they used the Rus
sian flashlight signals. This corre-
spondent adds that three japanese tor
pedo boats were sunk with great loss
| of life.
A correspondent Of the Standard at
! Toxic sends In this morning an en-
tirely new account Of the Port Arthur
encounter. He says Admiral Togoa
! feet arrived on Monday night and
found the Russian squadron drawn up
In battle formation outside the harbor
and under the shadow of the forts,
the destroyers being spread out in
front over distance Of five miles.
Admiral Togo decided on a night at
tack and opened fire at II o'clock.
While the cannonade was hottest a
number of Japanese torpedo boats
crept along close in-shore at the foot
Of the cliff and succeeded in the dark
ness In getting between the Russian
ships and the land. Here they lay un-
noticed until the Russians began to
give way before the japanese fire and
sought to re-enter the harbor. The
Japanese torpedo boats then opened
fire at comparatively close range and
sank two battleships and one cruiser
close to the entrance of the harbor.
The effect of this coup was the retreat
Of the remainder of the squadron into
the harbor. All was safe on board the
Japanese ships at noon OF Tuesday, the
correspondent concludes, and the en-
gagement was then still in progress.
The Attack on Port Arthnr.
London, Feb. 12.-In dispatch
from Nagasaki dated February 10 a

says: There has been a renewed at
tack on Port Arthur. The Japanese
captured seven Russian ships and
chased others. There have been dis
turbances at Port Arthur in which
number Of Japanese civilians were
killed or imprisoned. A Chinese mob
has destroyed the telegraph line
around Newchwang."
The St. Petersburg correspondent Of
Reuters Telegram company cables
that the naval headquarters staff there
announces that in the fight at Port
Arthur six Japanese ships were slight
y'Sdaniaged and so Japanese were
killed and 150 wounded.
