But few people in town appear to be taking any special interest in the coming local election. Politically speaking there's nothing doing. How it can be said that the Republicans have refused to enter the name of Ed ward B. Morehouse as al candidate for the first selectman's berth, as it has been put, when the caucus has not been held. and no one can tell what that body will do. is one of the curious statements which now and then gets into print. It has been stated that there is Republican machine" in town, but who compose it, and wheth- CT they can control a caucus in ad- vance, remains to be seen. If a ma chine in any party is capable of. dic- tating in advance who may be candi- dates on the ticket. and who shall not be, then @ caucus is quite unnecessary If MT.

THE CAPTURE OF AGUINALDO-By H. S. w, M D.

fore stated, between the Tagalogs and Macabebes the most bitter and venomous hatred exists and they seldom meet that they do not come to blows. This occa- sion proved no exception to the rule, and they immediately proceeded to get busy. Aguinaldo hearing the shots and suppos- ing that his body guard were firing their guns as salute to the soldiers who had made such an important capture, ordered them to desist. but before the order could be executed he was seized, and his body guard. realizing the trap into which they had fallen, surrendered, and the capture of Aguinaldo was an accomplished fact.
 This important capture, which proved to be the collapse of Tagalog resistance, took place on the morning of March 23, 1901.

ficers. The fact that they had the re- sources of the American nation back of them availed nothing, for they were playing a deep game, the success of which was vital and they had to play to perfection the role they had assumed. No well equipped commissary accompanied them. In order to successfully carry out the deception they had to fare as the na- tive soldiers fare, and sustain their vigor as best they could on tropical fruit, cara bao flesh. swamp rice and, in fact, any rough food that came handy. The tough little Macabebes stood 1t well. as their iron-like feet were proof against the thorns of the jungle would do no more than tickle their leather-lille hides.
 The officer I interviewed was resting up at the third reserve hospital. He said: q would rather hike two years over the fiery pits of Hades than hike two weeks over the mountains and through the jungles of Principe province"
 At the end of the second week the party arrived within two miles of Aguinaldos s Headquarters. They applied to Aguinaldo for food and other supplies. which was promptly brought them. The whole ex. petition was handled with such skill and cunning that not the faintest suspicion was aroused in regard to the identity of the party or the object of the undertak- ing. After a rest of 36 hours the party marched into the retreat of the President of the Philippine republic

the writer obtained the story of the cap- ture.
 On March 8, 1901, they landed 25 miles south of Casiguran, province of Principe, having been transported to this point by the gunboat Vicksburg.
 The Filipino military authorities at Casiguran were informed by the officers supposedly in command of the party, Aguinaldo, and that they had with them five American prisoners of war, among them being the celebrated Funston. This information caused great rejoicing among the Filipino military authorities, IS tho little colonel was man universally dreaded. It was reported that the pris- oners were taken in a fight in which g. large force of Americans were routed and many wounded, slain and captured.
 From this point other forged letters from General Lucana were forwarded to Aguinaldo, and the party at once set out for the Filipino Presidents mountain re- treat Here started the hardest and most fatiguing hike" that was ever attempt ed by American soldiers in the Philip pines.

faltered in following the path marked out by their fortitude and courage. The time has come, however, in which they find their advance along this path to be impeded by an Irresistible force which, while 1t restraints them, yet en1ghtens their minds and opens to them another course, presenting to them the cause of peace. This cause has been joyfully embraced by the majority of my country men, who have already united around the glorious sovereign banner of the United States. In this banner they repose their trust and belief that, under it's protection the Filipino people will attain all of those promised liberties which they are beginning to enjoy.
 "The country has declared unmistalSa- bly for peace. So be it. There have been enough tears. enough blood and enough desolaton. This wish cannot be ignored by the men still in arms. if they are anil mated by a desire to serve our noble people. which has thus clearly manifest ed its will. So do respect this will. now that 1t Is known to me.
 After mature deliberation, I resolutely proclaim to the world that I cannot re- fuse to heed the voice of people longing for peace, nor the lamentations of thou- sands of families yearning to see their dear ones enjoying the liberty and prom ised generosity of the American nation.
 By acknowledging and accepting the sovereignty of the United States over our archipelago as I now do. and without any reservation whatsoever, believe that l am serving thee, my beloved country. May peace and happiness be thine."

land used for agricultural purposes is more profitable than when used for pas toral purposes, and not alone is it more profitable to the owner who raises the wheat but 1t tends to start up the flour mills which are now lying idle.
 If ever there was country in the world that protective tariff would benefit that country is Ireland. The flour milling industry was once great industry in Ireland giving employment to great mum bers of men and having millions of money invested In 1t. Now the mills are idle and falling into decay; the machinery is rusting, the water rushes past the mill wheel and the miller is an agent for the sale of American flour. Shoddy tweeds, made in Leeds and Bradford, have almost put Irish woolen mills out of existence, but there still remain a few in which cloth and tweeds of the very best quality are made. Irish poplin, a combination of wool and silk and one of the most mag niflcent fabrics ever manufactured in a loom, has been almost completely swamped out of existence by cheap imported imitation. Whatever the Irish make they make 1t out of the best and not having yet learned the art of im-

had thrown in his hands, so these letters were answered according to the dictation of Funston. These answers to the letters of Aguinaldo were written in a clever im- itation of General Lucana's chirography and stamped with his private seal. Fun ston correctly surmised that the only chance for failure would be in the event of General Lucana being able to commit nicate with hs chief before the decoy letters could reach him. However there was not much danger of such a misfor- tune happening, for the Kansas boys were hot on the trail of General Lucana and his escort.
 Funston hurriedly applied to Gen. Ar thur McArthur, then in command of the American forces in the Philippines for authority to make the attempt to cap ture the leader of the native forces. Need less to say the authority was speedily forthcoming. the decoy letters forwarded by speedy native scouts, and two days following their departure Funston arsl his party followed. He selected 80 of the cream of the Macabebe scouts, who are the sworn enemies of the Tagalogs, a score of whom he dressed in the uniform of Filipino soldiers. The remainder were disguised as laborers.
 This force was placed under the com mand of four ex-officers Of the Filipino army, who had taken the oath of alle- glance to the United States government Funston and four other American off, cers masquerading as prisoners of war made up the expedition.
 It was from one of these officers that
