Surrender Of the Spanish Gunboat CAL

SURRENDER OF TIC spanish 0UnoOdI Ndl-
lao at Manila.
On the afternoon of the 18th (NIay
II. 1885, small Spanish gunboat
came steaming up Manila bay. directly
toward the American feet. The sur
prise Of the people in the effect was
great; this little vessel seemed so con
fident and friendly. Finally one of
our ships fired a shot across her bow.
This did not seem to make any differ
ence to her, for she kept on just the
same. Then we saw an officer go
alongside from the flagship. &~'.E =, ~
We found out that evening that this
vessel was the Spanish gunboat Cal
lao and that she had been cruising in
the southern part of the Philippines
for a long time and had not heard
about the war, and, the time of her
cruise being finished, she was now re-
turning to Manila. The officers and
men had been looking forward to this
for long time, because in Manila
they were to find their wives, children,
parents, friends, theaters. clubs, no.
tells, newspapers and all the things
that make sailors look forward with
happiness to getting home. They saw
a great many ships in the harbor fly
ing the American flag, but this did
not give them any uneasiness, and
when the first gun was fired by the
American ship they did not notice that
the shot came across the bow Of their
own ship, and thought it was simply
the first gun Of some salute.
But when the second shot was fired
and they heard the whizzling of the
shell they knew something was wrong.
And when the American officer came
on board and told them that every
ship in the fleet was destroyed and
that they themselves were prisoners
Of war their feelings of joyful hope
went through change that, let us
hope, few of us will ever know.-From

The "Pirate's" Dauehter.

Almost every one has read the
story of MILFORD Harris. the so-called
"pirate, held as prisoner in the
Hennepin county Jail for robbing
summer cottages at Lake Mime
tonka. His wife was also arrested
upon the charge of receiving stolen
property and his daughter for con
tempt of court. The latter two
were placed in durance at Onamia
to which place they had fled
upon request of the Hennepin county
authorities. 1T is claimed by the
Hennepin county sheriff that they
were endeavoring to get into Canada.
Deputy Sheriff Eichmiller of
Onamia gathered the women in and
lodged them in his house to await
further developments. On March Is
Frank Hastings, an Onamia town.
ship farmer, appeared on the scene
with a marriage license-the license
having been issued by Clerk of Court
King on the day previous-and asked
that the deputy sheriff permit him
to take unto himself a wife in the
person Of Elizabeth Harris, the
"pirate's'' daughter, who was then
in his keeping. Being a good sort of
fellow, Eichmiller trotted out after
Justice Wasenius, and the marriage
was pulled off forthwith with all the
frills and furbelows of society

Mrs. Harris and her daughter were
later taken in charge by a deputy
sheriff from Hennepin county and
conveyed to. minneapolis. Mrs. Harris
was afterwards released on $500 bail,
and the daughter was given into the
custody of friends who vouched for
her appearance at the trial of her

A number Of friends of the P. w.
Jensen family and of Grandma

who died at their new home near

went to Princeton on Saturday to

the Sunday school missionary, who
often visited Grandma Thorson
during her illness both last winter
