PHILIPPINE SCOUTS.
A Battalion Arrives to Attend the
Worlds Fair.

San Francisco. March 16.-The pro-
visional battalion of Philippine scouts,
which arrived here on the transport
Thomas, commanded by Major F. del.
Darlington, is made up of men from
four island tribes, the Macabebes, To-
canos Tagalos and the Viscayans- All
of the 412 scouts now here have done
good service and all have proved loyal
to the American government under fire.
The Macabebe company was originally
part of Batsons battalion and has a
distinguished record. The Ilocanos
served with credit in Samar, fighting
a number of battles with the insur-
gents under Lukban and Guevara. Four
men of the Thirtieth Tagalos on one
occasion, in Laguna, attacked and ov-
ercane an armed force of 40 Ladrones.
The Visayan company served in An
tiuue and Iloilo and had many brushes
with insurgents. The scouts, who have
their own band are encamped for the
present at the Presidio. They will
eventually go into camp at St. Louis
to let the American people see what
manner of men they have in the ma
tiyes of their Oriental possessions.

It's not easy to keep up when coffee
has so ruined the stomach that food

A Missouri woman says: L had been

lime water. six times a day. In this
way I managed to live, but of course
did not gain.

gan using Postum Food Coffee; did
not need the milk and lime water after
that. for I gained rapidly and can
now eat a good meal and drink from
one to three cups of Postum each meal

perate fight occurred on the streets Tues

an attorney, and his son Clarence were
the principals on one hand and James

getting the worst of it. the old man
stabbed Hennessey in the back, infiict-
ing two dangerous wounds. Constable

The conduct of General Leonard Wood
while he was in Cuba serving as mill
tary governor during American occupa-
ton was held up to censure in an execu-
tive session of the senate lasting two
hours by Senator Blackburn, one of the
members of the committee on military
affairs, who Joined in the minority re-
port against the confirmation of Wood
to be major general. The speech of
Blackburn is said to have been one of
the continuous flows of oratory for
which he is famous, and though punctu-
ated throughout with the denials and
questions from friends of the nominee,
was, it is said, a well connected comment
on the evidence given in the committee
hearings. He did not conclude his re-
marks and will have the floor at the
next executive session. The programme
as now arranged provides that Senator
Quarles shall follow Senator Blackburn
in a speech favoring confirmation, Sen
ator Teller to address the senate in OPP
position and Senator Foraker to close
for General Wood If no general appro-
priation bills are reported to the senate
to take the right of way, it is thought
now an agreement to vote on the nomi-
nation will be reached this week
None of the interruptions of Senator
Blackburn consumed more than five
minutes. Senators Foraker and AlgeI
were the most persistent in denying
statements made by the speaker, and
some of the passages at arms proved
interesting.
Two bills have been introduced in tbs
house by Mr.. Birdsall, of Iowa. One
authorizes the postmaster general tt

| fees out of the surplus revenue of the
respective offices an amount for clerk
hire in addition to allowance for sep

In offices where the salary of the
postmaster is 81 900. $500; where the sal
airy is $500. $500; where the salary is
81, 700, $500; and where the salary is
81, 600, $500.
The other bill authorizes the post
master general to resignate offices al

make reasonable allowance for clerk
hire for this work

New Truancy Law Continues to Be a
Bone of Contention.

The county commissioners and county
superintendents are still having trouble
over the appointment of truant officers
in some counties. J. H. Corbett, county
superintendent of Saline county. has
just written the attorney generals de-
partment, asking what he shall do when
the county commissioners refuse to APP
point a truant officer which he recon-
mends He says he made the nominal
ton several months ago, and has re-
peated it whenever the board has met
since, but thus far the commissioners
have not appointed anyone. He passed
the matter up to the county attorney, c.
w. Burch, and the county attorney in
structed him to write to the attorney
general.
Assistant Attorney General Close has
replied that it is imperative upon the
county commissioners to appoint as
truant officers whoever the county SUI
perintendent dominates. It is not a
matter of choice with them. Mr.. Close
suggests that the county attorney may
begin nandamus proceedings against
the commissioners to compel them to
