Dewey, has left the Catholic church, which
she joined afew years ago, and in which
her marriage to the Admiral was celebrated.
The report that Mrs. Dewey was deciding
to leave the Catholic church aud hereafter
attend St. John’s Episcopal church was
discussed eagerly at the latter church this
morning, where it was expected she would
attend services with the Admiral, and in
which he had a pew for years.
The Admiral declined to talk about the
affair any further, except to admit that
Mrs. Dewey had some weeks ago definitely
given np her pew in St. Paul's church.
The Adwmiral’s pew at St. John’s was va-
cant Sunday. Not even the Admiral was
there. He was kept so busy seeing callers,
with several of whom he spent almost the
entire morning in his study.
Not since her marriage has Mis. Dewey
attended St. Paul’s or any other Catholic
church, so that her final leaving is not a
complete surprise to her personal friends.
At the time of her conversion to the Ro-
man Catholic faith Mrs. Dewey was a pew-
holder in St. John’s.
Rev. Dr. Alexander MacKay-Smith,
rector of St. John’s church, when seen to-
day, said: “If Mrs. Dewey has left the Ro-
man Cotholic church and intends for the

MANILA, April 16.—Reports of encount-
ers between the American troops and in-
surgents continue to arrive from many
points. On Friday Captin Sturgis, while
reconnoitering, struck an insurgent out-
post on the Novaliches road, five miles dis-
tant from Manila, killing two and captur-
ing ten. All were in full uniform. Un-
fortunately Captain Sturgis’ force was not
iarge enough to pursue the main body.
A detachment of the Forty-second in-
fantry, while scouting in Laguna province,
was pursued by the insurgents and obliged
to take refuge in a church at Paeto, where
the Americans repelled the rebels until re-
inforcements arrived.
Lieutenant Gordon, with a company of
the Sixteenth infantry, while scouting near
Aparri, Cagayan province, engaged 250 in-
surgents. Lieutenant Gordon was wound-
ed. A sergeant and a corporal of Company
I, Eighteenth Infantry, were killed in a
severe fight in Capiz province, island of
Panay.
The insurgents made a night attack upon
Calbayon, island of Samar. They killed
the sentry, swarmed into the tower and
searched the house of Major Gilmore, of the
Forty-third infantry, who was absent.
They killed his cook. ‘ Ultimately the
Americans drove them out of the town,
killing four and capturing twelve.
General Young, commanding in North
Luzon, has made several requests for re- |
enforcements, representing that his force is
inadequate, that men are exhausted by the
necessity of constant vigilance, and he is
unable to garrison the towns in his juris-
diction, that the insurgents are returning
to the district and killing the Amigos, and
that it is necessary tor him to inflict pun-
ishment in several sections before the rainy
season begins.
General James Bell, who is commanding
in Southern Luzon, has made similar rep-
resentations. He says his forces are inade-
quate and that he merely holds a few
towns, without controlling the territory.
The president of the town of Samal,
province of Bataar, Luzon, and another
prominent native, has been assassinated
because they were known to be friendly to
the Americans.
The president of another town has joined
the insurgents because they had threatened
to kill him if he did not.
How Capers are Received.
Capers come to usin twenty-gallon casks
from European countries bordering the
Mediterranean Sea. They are the flower
buds of a plant hotanically known as cap-
paris spinosa. The smaller they are the
higher the price they demand. They are
used only as a seasoning or garnishing of
dishes in this country.
yesterday.
Between thirty and forty lives were lost
in this vicinity, and reports from the trib-
utary country tell of death and destruc-
tion in the wake of the flood everywhere.
At noon the great granite dam in the
Colorado river gave way from the enor-
mous pressure of water and debris, and
with a roar and crash swept the valleys
below the city, carrying away a large num-
ber of houses, wrecking the immense light
and powder plant and drowning eight work-
men. Following is the list of the known
dead, including those killed in the powder
house :
Frank Pincet, Frank Inney, Walter
Flower, Walter Johnsen, Frank Fitzger-
ald, Walter Blossom, Joseph Newman,
Dick Morris (colored), John Proes, Chas.
Burchard aud six negroes.
A ~vrowd of white people numbering
about thirty, living just below the dam in
tents, were seen at their habitations just
before the dam broke, and have not been
accounted for since. It is generally be-
lieved that all of them were swept away.
One man, attempting to cross the road-
way leading to the bridge across the river,
just as the big wave rolled down, was
caught and he and his horse and buggy
went down with the torrent and were heard
of no more.
——What a lesson of contentment for
men of moderate means is taught by the
story of George Smith, who, with a fortune
of $100,000,000 behind him, supplied all
the wants of life on $3 a day! The late
Cornelius. Vanderbilt hardly spent more
for his personal needs. Russell Sage proba-
bly spends less. Jay Gould lived chiefly
on tea and toast. The Duke of Westmin-
ister was a man of frugal habits. No ordi-
nary business man lives more simply than
Rockefeller or Carnegie. This is an im-
portant lesson. It should be preached and
explained and insisted on for the benefit of
the scheming strugglers after wealth—the
lesson that wealth has its limits that it
does not bring happiness, and that all the
truest and highest pleasures of life are with-
in the reach of men of moderate means,
and that they are denied to the lods of
millions.
DEDUCTION.
The other day my little hoy,
My precious little Sam,
Climbed on my lap and sweetly asked,
“Is IT God’s little lamb ?
I said, “Yes, child, and I pray,
His watch He'll o'er you keep.”
“Then, ma, if I's God's little lamb,
Is g’an’pa His old sheep?
— Mrs J. Conley.
then its school directors have had about all
they wanted to do accepting resignations and
filling vacancies.”
This, Mr. Editor, is a mistake. The only
reduction of instructor's salary made last fall
was that of the supervising principal, which
was fixed at $1,200 for the nine months,
term. the same as it had been prior to Prof.
Lose’s term. None of the teacher’s salaries
were ‘“‘cut down’’ at all, nor has any one re-
signed on that account. Miss Henderson’s is
the third resignation which bas taken place
during the present term in order to secure a
larger salary elsewhere, and it is not amiss to
gay that the board hasexperienced no diffi-
culty in filling the vacancies. The lowest sala-
ry paid any woman teacher in the Philipsburg
schools is $45.00 a month, and an examination
of the State Superintendent’s report will show
that there are comparatively few districts in
Pennsylvania where the average pay of
woman teachers is as high as it is here. The
standard of our schools is quite as good
now as it ever has been, and the pupils in all
the grades are making highly satisfactory
progress, notwithstanding a small coterie
of croakers, a couple of whom failed to get a
place on the beard, are trying to make itap-
pear otherwise. Capt. C. T. Fryberger, who
was opposed as the leader of the retrench-
ment movement, which was the prominent
issue in the contest, was re-elected in Febru-
ary by a much larger majority than has been
received by any other director in recent
years, and this fact ought to be considered a
convincing answer to all objections which
have been made against the course pursued
by a majority of the board of education con-
cerning this particular matter.
Wheeled Baby 1,400 Miles.
Experiences of a Pennsylvania Couple ona Trip
West.
A Pennsylvania couple, Philip Miller
and his wife, of Stroudsburg, arrived at
Omaha March 26th, having made the en-
tire distance of 1,400 miles on foot, push-
ing a baby carriage containing their in-
fant child before them.
Miller had become discouraged by con-
tinued ill-luck in the Pennsylvania coal
district, and having scarcely any funds, he
and his wife packed their few personal ef-
fects in two grips and determined to walk
across the continent. They set out from
Stroudsburg and followed the lines of rail-
roads all the way, the woman wheeling
the carriage over the ties, while the man
trudged on behind with the grips.
They inquired their way from station to
station, obtained their focd by working for
persons along their path, and slept in sec-
tion houses. :
given out by them to-day. Itisa detail-
ed statement of the killing as told by va-
rious witnesses for the Commonwealth be-
fore the grand jury. The statement in part
is as follows :
Jim Howard, the Clay county feudist, is
the man suspected by the Commonwealth
of having fired the shot, which came from
a 38 caliber Marlin rifle, furnished by Henry
E. Youtsey, who bought the steel bullet
and smokeless powder cartridge from a
well-known Cincinnati house. It is charg-
ed in the confessions that have been made
that Caleb and John Powers, Charles Fin-
ley and two or three others whose names
are known helped in the conspiracy, and
that Jir: and Berry Howard, Youtsey, Cul-
tou and one or two others, each having his
special part, executed it. The story has
many ramifications; all the minor details
could only be brought out after weeks of
questioning and cross questioning of the
numerous witnesses.
Youtsey implicates Governor W. S. Tay-
lor, asserting that he was one of eight or
nine men who knew of this end of the con-
spiracy. which was carried out in Caleb
Powers’ oftice. The men he implicated are
W. 8S. Taylor, Caleb Powers, John L.
Powers, Charles Finley, W. H. Culton,
Jim Howard, probably Berry Howard, one
other man and Youtsey himself.
Aged Couple Divorced.
Judge Metzger, at Williamsport Thuars-
day, granted a divorce to Abraham Swartz
aged 84 years, from his wife, who is about
70 years old. The decree was issued upon
the ground of desertion, is being alleged
thas the woman left her spouse about two
years ago. The couple had been married
over twenty years and Mr. Swartz is a great
grandfather by a former marriage. This is
the oldest couple that have ever been sepa-
rated by a divorce in Lycoming county
and probably in the state. After the pro-
ceedings were at an end, Swartz wept and
asserted that he still loved the woman.
Washington's Nearest Kinsman Dead.
Major E. B. Ball, the nearest known re-
lative of George Washington died April the
12th in Washington, D.C. He was the
grandson of Col. Burges Ball, of Virginia,
who spent his whole fortune to aid the
Revolutionary army. Col. Ball was cousin
to Gen. Washington, and an intimate and
trusted adviser. His grandson, Major Ball
was an unpretentious yet highly respected
man. He was a member of the Sons of the
American Revolution.
