TREACHERY CAUSED
 FIGHT AT SAMAR
PULAJANES WERE ABOUT TO SURRENDER AND WANTED PIG TURES TAKEN WHEN THEY RUSHED UPON AMERICANS.

Manila, March 26-According to advices received today, the recent fight at Mag taon, Samar, between the constabuary and Pulajanes. was the result of base treachery on the part of the natives. As a result of the fight thirty Pula1anes were killed and sixteen of the eonstabu- lary killed and wounded
 A dispatch received from Captain Jones of the constabulary says that on March 2s, Governor Curry. Judge Lobinger and Superintendent of Schools Hoover ar rived there and camped over night near the Pulajanes The presence of the off cials was made known to the rebellious natives and their leader announced that he would surrender his force the next day. As a result of this promise the Am ericans returned to the town of Magtaon, accompanied by Colonel Aguilar, another Pulajane chief.
 The next day four chiefs of the Pula- james with over a hundred men and four teen guns appeared at Magtaon ana nhed up in front of the barracks. Between the barracks and Pulaianes stood the group of American officials. One Of the chiefs expressed wish that his party he photographed in the act of surrender ing and Superintendent Hoover In com puance with the request was adjusting his camera when the Pulajanes leader blew d whistle and gave an order to ad- vance The. entire party or natives there upon rushed upon the American officials. who escaped to the Magtaon river and swan 10 the opposite bank. When the treaehery of the natives was apparent, the .-snstahulary gained decisive victory. Tine Pulaianes were chased to the noun tains, hut the pursuers lost more guns than they captured
 The American officials were later found with the exception of Governor Curry. He was last seen being chased by Pulajanes and is now believed to be hiding in the dense brush in that locality. Three hum dred ~anstabulary are now on the trail of the natives and searching TOT C;t irry.

Boise, March 30.-A special to the
Statesman from Council says:
A great deal Of interest has been
aroused here by the appearance Of
party Of Is surveyors under G. w.

north.
Mr.. Luck was absolutely uncommu-
NEGATIVE respecting the object Of the
party. He would say nothing respect
in9 their destination or the work they
were to do. It likewise developed that
all members Of the party had been
placed under strict orders to answer
no questions that could give anyone q
clue to the mission upon which they
had gone forth. =
It IL learned. however, that the des-
tination Of the party Ii the Salmon

railway survey started by T. c. Clark

There has been great deal said re-
Gently about pushing the r. & !. n.

looks N though something Of that
kind were on the program. One story
that has attracted great deal Of at

The Home.

To remove the squeak from wicker
chair or settee, chalk the parts upon
which the friction falls.
Cane-seated chair bottoms that have
sagged may be made as tight as ever
by washing them with hot water and
leaving to dry in the open air.
If bedstead creaks at each move
of the sleeper remove the Stats and
wrap the ends of each in old news
papers. This will prove a complete
silencer.
Varnish and paint stains in coarse
fabrics can be removed by first sat-
urating with turpentine and then
washing. Ivory knife handles that
have become yellow can be restored
to their former Wilderness by rubbing
with turpentine.
To prepare feathers for pillows place
the feathers in large tub and pour
over them two pounds of quick1ime
thoroughly dissolved in two gallons of
water. The feathers should be allowed
to remain in the tub five days.
To clean the inside of the cookstove
soak some corncobs in coal oil. Place
two or three cobs under the top lids
and under the oven, then close damp
ers and light the eobs. They will burn
the SCOT out clean. A damp day is the
best time, as then danger of fire is
less.
Iron rust, it is said, may be removed
by tying little cream of tartar in the
stained spot before putting the article
to boil. If this does not succeed,
thicken lemon juice with equal parts
of salt and starch, add some soft soap,
apply the mixture to the cloth, and lay
it in the hot sun. If the first applica-
ton does not remove the spots, repeat
until they have entirely disappeared.
If there is any fear that a bed not
usually slept on is damp, put bright
looking-glass between the sheets and
cover it up. In few minutes examine
it. If it's surface is dimmed there is
cause for uneasiness. If bright look
ing-glass is not at hand tumbler
warmed and turned upside down will
answer the same purpose.
To clean a library properly one
should have a real reverence for books
After the furniture is all removed from
the room and the floor has received
the attention to be given it, then turn
to the books. Take one shelf at a
time. Wipe each book as it. is re-
moved from the shelf; have a small
hair dust brush and with this brush
the tops, sides and bottom of the
books. Be very particular to replace
the volumes in the proper order. Moth
ing exasperates a book lover more
than to have wellarranged shelves
mixed up by housekeeping methods.

A Lottery Baq.'

This is a game enjoyed by chill
dren or grown ups, and proves an
entertaining feature for a party. Pro-
vide large vase, with a neck which
will admit the hand, or a bag with
draw string. Fill this receptacle
with peanuts. Pass slips of paper
to the guests and ask them to write
down the number of nuts, which they
think they will draw out in one hand.
full
Each takes a turn, and then puts
down the actual number drawn out.
The one who comes the nearest the
first number receives a prize, and
the person furthest away from the
original guess receives a consolation
prize. Serve sailed peanuts, the
Jumbo" variety, peanut butter sand
witches, a salad and peanut ice cream.
Peanuts strung with beads make eff
fective portieres. For people who
really like peanuts, soup made by
adding the crushed milk to a cream
soup is very delicious, and serve it
as first course in bouillon cups.

A Maizepop PARTY,

The very latest invention for au.

fish for popcorn
Just recently our popcorn has been
introduced into England by two en-
terprising Americans under the name
of "Maizepop," and is being received
with great eclat. In consequence. our
plebeian popcorn has taken de-
cided rise in artistic circles.

tons the red and white ears of corn

ways are very effective Pass each
guest an ear of corn with wooden
plate, such as grocers use, let them
shell and count the grains, keeping
account of the number, then pour the
contents into large receptacle. Each
person makes a guess as to the num-
Der, the one coming nearest gets a
prize. Then have peppers for the
men, and some shelled popcorn. When
a good sized bowlful is popped, give
each a needle and thread with rib
bons of different colors, half-inch
in width. The girls make watch
chains for the men, and the men
make necklaces for the girls by sew.
ing grains of popcorn to the ribbon.
Partners are found for refreshment or
for whatever contest the hostess has
provided by matching necklace and
ribbon.
For refreshments serve a cream
corn soup. cornmeal gems. bowls Of
mush with cream. parched, sailed and
buttered corn, instead of nuts.
