oause he suspected him of alternating
his wife's affections, suspicion which
was found to be true, according to the
testimony in the case.
Mrs. Reynolds gave sensational ev-

THE WEEK ACCORDING
TO PLANS.

Tonight is the end of Walla WAL
las first harvest festival.
The carnival has been getting better
each day ana tonight it will END in a
blaze of glory long to be remembered
in this city. Everything has been pre-
pared for a big time tonight. 1t will

carnival, and in view of the fact that
tomorrow is day of rest, every cit
izen should be out tonight to help
along the festivities.

tonight will be but 10 cents. The
price has been reduced tonight and is
within easy reach of all. Remember
only 10 cents for the grandstand to-
night
Special vaudeville stunts will be put
OH there before the queen and her

done to end the carnival in an appro-
pirate fashion and no pains are be-
ing spared to make this the best
night of all. l,~
At s o'clock there will be a grand
finale concert of rs musicians at the
queens throne. A special program
has been arranged for this and it

outclass anything yet put on.
Special musical numbers will be
included among which will be vo-
cal solo by Signor G. Ferrari, Walla

there will be several other good at
fractions. The program is one we'll
worth seeing.

city will pass back to the civic au-
thori.ies. and the Harvest Festival
will be a matter of history.

furnished by two boys who were con-
cealed beneath the rig.
The Wal.a Walla Trades and Labor

ly decorated. Following this came the
labor unions as follows:
Cigar makers, painters and paper
hangers, brewers, carpenters, plumb

AquinaIdo is a Farmer.

"Aguinaldo, the leader of the
famous Philippine insurrection, is
now quietly engaged in agriculture
al pursuits on large plantation 10
miles from Mac in Cavite province,
which is my station, or was when
left The Islands in May. He owns
considerable land himself and leases
some. of the civil government lands,
which were bought from the religious
orders. I think he has got enough
of instructions and will be contented
to devote himself in the future to
peaceful pursuits. The disturber in
the islands now is Gomez. He was
convicted some line ago in the insular
courts for obtaining money from the
people by false pretanse' having IN
duced them 10 make contribution. s
with which 10 secure independence
for the Filipino. He was sentent ed

"As to the Japanese spies which are
said to be operating extensively in the
islands 1 believe that the reports are
considerably exaggerated. Naturally
the closeress of the islands to Japan
makes such reports coming from
there seem more significant, but 1t IS
possible that there are as many lt not
more, Japanese spies in this country.
1 think these spies. as they are called,
might better be called information
gatherers. Japan is using every means
to educate herself concerning mod
ern methods in, use in other countries.
l do not know what can be done with
these spies when they are caught, but
I think that all that can be done WIN
them is to confiscate whatever draw
ings of fortification they may nave
in their possession and send them out
of the country

he has been spending in visit to his

The Philippine scouts now have an
enlisted strength of about five thous-
and" said Lieutenant Hoffman. at Ho-
tel Dacres today. land there is some
talk that it is the Intention of the
government to increase it by as many
more enlisted men. The consolida-
tion of the constabulary, which is the
military force of the insVlar civil gov
ernment is also under considerable
complished. The federal government
does not appear to favor the idea
of maintaining a large force of ma
tives in the islands and the insular
government is not financially able to
maintain a force large enough to in
sure peace in the islands.
THE civil government is not being
conducted on a paying basis as il is.
The organization involves an extrava-
giant expenditure of money and there
is not much business in the islands.
OF late the civil government has found
it necessary to- adopt measures Of
retrenchment. The large fleet of coast
guard vessels which it has been
mair. aiming has been found to be an
expensive luxury and the vessels that
have not been lost are now lying in
Manila bay, for sale. There was never
any urgent need of this fleet and its
operations increased the expenses of
the civil government instead of add
ing to the revenues. which it was in
tended to do by preven ing smuggling
and carrying civil government sup
plies and mails which would otherwise
have to be carried by commercial
boats
