Manila, Oct 22.-Additional details
OF the damage wrought in the Cagayan
valley by the typhoon Of Oct IL. indi-
cate that the loss Of life in the disas-
ter will reach 500. At Apart, where
the thrilling rescue of 100 natives was
effected through the heroism of Lieut..
Robert Clark, Lieutenant Treadway
and Postmaster Foss, the survivors
say that 300 residents OF the submerg-
ed fishing village, which is located
some distance below APART, were
swept away and drowned.
Three Americans, aided by one Fill
pino volunteer, were informed of the
danger that threatened the village, and
managed to reach 1t by boat. APP
preaching the shore in a series OF
short rushes between the breakers
that threatened at any moment to
swamp their frail craft, the rescuers
found scores of natives clinging to the
poles of their wrecked habitations.
Only Six Were Not Rescued.
Lieutenants Clark and Treadway,
carrying lines from the boat, fought
their way through breakers and swim
ming from house to house in the flood
water, saved the lives of about 100
men, women and children. So thor
ough was their work that all but six
of those living when the boat reached
the village, were saved.
Half dozen of the unfortunates in
question were swept away by the force
of the water while the Americans were
striving to reach them. More than fifty
bodies were recovered in this locality.
1t is reported that many were
drowned at Ilagan and that the town
was almost entirely destroyed.

German Good Sense.

This country could hardly be ex-
pected to GermaniZe it's legal pro-
cedure, or, for that matter, make 1t
conform to that of any other coun-
try. But it could embody with bene-
fetal results the principles of the
German system in dealing with petty
disputes. 1t is perfectly proper that
cases involving large amounts or i'm
portant questions should be gone in
to with care and due expense. But
the eXtortionate rate which Amerl-
cans pay for justice in small things
is proverbial. The Germans deal
with these things in an eminently
sensible way.
An American tourist who inquired
why there were only four lawyers in
a town of $4,000 people in Germany,
was told that the civil cases had been
reduced to a minimum because every
such case had to be tried by three
conciliators appointed by the mayor
of the city before it found it's way
into the courts. If the judgment
of the conciliators is not accepted
the case then goes into court, but
the loser has to pay all the costs, in
GLIDING attorneys fees, so that the
Judgment of the conciliators is usu-
ally accepted. The conciliators re-
ceive no salary, but they consider
their appointment high honor. On
ly in SANDER cases are they permit
ted to impose a fine, which is pay
able to the district insane asylum.
The guilty party is required to sign
declaration of regret and publish
it in the official organ of the district.

The Doctor And His Reward.

In the same issue of an Eastern
newspaper appear two items concern
ing the medical profession. One is
about a bold and resourceful surgeon
who seWed up a knife wound in a
dying mans heart, the other cites
the fact that, as doctors are short
lived, they are eXtrahazardous 1nSur-
ance risks. Here is both the service
in the cause of humanity and the
sacrifice, the labor and the reward.
The doctors are so near to us, play
so intimate a part in our living, that,
as If by their very closeness, we are
blind to the extraordinary exertions
they have made for the general com
fort and happiness.
But for the doctor the Southern
cities would still be suffering those
wild panics of other days when yell
low fever entered port. He has
caused swamps to be drained, sewers
to be laid, streets to be swept and
flushed and hospitals to be built. The
Panama Canal Zone, which under the
French regime, was highway OF
death, now is more healthful than
many a Northern community with
the same number of inhabitants. To
know a medical practitioner is to know
one superior to the average educated
man. Few professors develop such
character. The occupation of heal
ing, of beholding men and women
and children at their worst, irritable,
unreasonable and often cowardly, has
not, fortunately, caused his own de-
generation. His capacity for thought
fulness is trained to keenness, his
selfishness, where there is any, is
shrewdly hidden, and the human in
stinct for enjoyment is not the less
in him because of his knowledge OF
it's reactiOns-Clevelan Leader.

Didn't Know Where They Were.

Where meandering river consti-
tutes the boundary of a nation or
State, changes in the course of the
stream give rise to problems in civil
government, as the following incident
illustrates. A minister in the south
ern part of South Dakota was called
upon once to officiate at wedding in
a home in a bend Of the Missouri
River During the high water of the
preceding spring the river had burst
over the narrow neck at the bend,
and at the time OF the fedding it
was flowing at both sides of the
cutoff, so that there was doubt
as to whether the main chan
mel of the stream - the interstate
boundary line-was north of them
and they were still in South Dakota.
TO be assured Of the legality of the
marriage rite the bridal couple min
lister and witnesses rowed to the
north bank, and up on the South Da-
kota bluff the marriage service was
performed, the bridal party return
ing-they cared not to which State
for the festivities. - The Vermiliop
