Spcclnl Cfirmpondfncc el The Trlliunr. .Mumlauc, P. t.. Keb. 23. Wo have moved ngnln. We arc now Hlong the const, about right mllos north ot Ccbii, In a town of about 3,000 Inhabitants called Manduue, and arc quartered In an old convent. 1 am glad to say that we now have the bem quarters we have had since ivo arrived In the Philip pines. 1 have not written for some time, as I have beeen Mnncwhat unuVr the weather, and have been Buffering with muscular rhuutnatlHm for some time, but am getting much better now. I was returned for duty yesterday und am feeling aa well as ever again. February has been a memorable month for the boys of K company so far, and one that they will never for get If they live to be the ago of Methu saloh. On Feb. 2 Captain Smith, of CJ company, was killed while defending his country, about nine miles from where we now arc. Several months ago B and CJ companies of our regi ment started around the island, keep ing as close to tho coast as possible, and when tboy got pretty well around. Captain Smith, who was In charge, went ahead with a squad of men, and got Into a scrap with a band ot na tives and lost his life. He is the tirst officer of our regiment to be killed here, and It cast a gloom over the regiment, as he was considered one of our ablest officers. He was very strict in mili tary affairs, but was always ready to help one of his men when they dc berved it. MEN INJURED. On Feb. 3 one of our men had tho misfortune to break his leg twice while we were on n march, and on Feb. 4 an other man was shot in the leg, so we had to return to our camp to send the two men Into Cebu to the hospital, as wc could not take care of them In tho field. On Fch. G just as our company was about to retire for the night, a volley was fired In our camp, and It was kept up for several minutes. The natives had taken us by surprise and were using the ofllcers' house and guard house for their target. They were doing everything they could to get our officers and men, but wc were fortunate, as none of us were hit. Lieutenant Flscus gave command to tho guard to hold the camp and for the company to all In at the brow of one of the hills. I was one of the corporals oC tho guard that night and soon had my re lief firing at the enemy, as near as I could locate them; the other corporals did the same, and we kept It up until our company was stationed on the hills, when we joined the company. There Is not much fun In being under fire In the dny time, but I hope that never again will I bo called upon to flro after dark? as there Is not a great deal of fun In hearing bullets whistling over your head when you do not know wheio they are coming from. On the morning of the Cth, word was brought Into our company that they were going to have us, dead or alive. In five days, and especially our com pany commander, so wc were prepared and every man stood guard until the morning of the 13th, not a man going to tcd, and the most of us not even washing his hands or face. It was here' I got my touch of rheumatism and every man was played out com pletely, and were glad to get where they could have one night's rest again. NOT BUILDING FORTS. The Insurgents have stopped build ing forts now and have started guer rilla warfare. They have organized themselves In small bands and are at tacking small detachments of soldleis. They are after our company and company commander, mostly for cap turing" General Alphonso here some time ago, but I guess they have a big ger Job on their hands than they think they have, as this company will stick 'together as long as a man can stand up. , General Snyder sent word out to Lieutenant Flscus the other day, "that he congratulated the company on the good work that they had done; that In after years the pride of their life would be In belonging to this company, and for us to keep on being good sol diers." Every man of us felt like cheering the general for his words, but, of course, In the regular army that Is not allowed, and consequently wc had to keep still. We have now 1)601) In the Philip pines over six months and are getting pretty well acclimated, but all of us would like to be back In tho state again. We can't help but think while our friends are going around with their overcoats on we are having very warm weather, and can go In swim ming every day without catching cold. I notice In several of the papers that "a certain amount of the people there , are" opposed to holding these Islands. I am a Democrat myself, and no doubt Vould be In the same position If I had not "been- over here to see for mvsolf. ' These' rteople are in no position to gov " ern' themselves and will not bo for rnany years to come. They are hold Jrig' out against us simply because so 'many of the men prominent In affairs ,!pf;)tthe states are sympathizing with them.

No matter how careful you are about eating, everything you take into your stomach turns sour, causes distress, pains and unpleasant gases. ' In this condition it is only a question of time when you will have a well developed case of dyspepsia, or possibly bilious fever. ', Don't you understand what these symptoms these signals of distress mean? They are the cries of the stomach for help I It is being overworked. It needs the peculiar tonic qualities and digestive strength to be found only in Hood's Sarsaparilla. Wc have combined in this' medicine the best stomach remedies known to the medical profession, and thousands of grateful let ters telling its cures prove it to be the greatest medicine for all stomach troubles ever yet dis covered. Try it this Spring. Mrs. Shelly, who -writes tho following letter, is the wife of Ilcv. D. II. Sholly, for forty years in the ministry of tho United Brethren. By her kind ly nature anil gentlo disposition 6he has won hundreds of friends, who rcjoico in her restoration, to health : " I suffered for years with sour stomach, sometimes called water brash. I could not drink either cold or warm water because it would sour on my stomnch. I was bloated and weighed over 200 pounds. Sly blood did not circulate properly, and if others around me were warm I seemed to be freezing. I had numbness in my right side and arms. The physician advised a thorough course of treatment witli a blood medicine in the spring, as at that Every druggist sells Hood's get Hood's, nnd not a substitute. 4'''''''m'4Vfe4aV'3 thut so many intelligent men of tho states blioultl sympathize with these people when so many good men are losing their lives to suppress them. ITS POLICY APPROVED. I truly nm In favor of the policy The Tribune Is advocating and hopo that you will still keep on upholding the cause of humanity. Thus far In life my sympathies have been with tho Democrats, but on this question, which Is moru vital than any other, because It Is a matter of life or death, I can't be. First Tho best people on these Islands arc heartily In favor of the American Government and are dolniz everything they can to suppress the In surrection. Second The Tagals and the Macca bees have long been enemies, and even if tho United States government should withdraw from these Islands, these people would sooner or later be at war with one another. So It Is tho duty of the American government to suppress these people and hold them in control until they are able to govern themselves. Every American soldier's life Is worth more than all these Islands, Is my view of tho situation, and we now have lost too many men like General Lawt.m, Major John A. Logan and Captain Smith to turn back from dolm; our duty. Keep on advocating what you are now doing and wc will conquer, as tin right is going to conquer on this oc caslon. William J.

Theodore Wolf, the well-known fuper Intcndent of the N'oith mill of the Lackawanna Iron nnd Steel company, has tendcied his resignation to the company, to go In eftect on May 1. Mr. Wolf has been employed at tha mill for over thirty-tlve years, and as superintendent has had a very suc cessful career. He Is an executor of the Dr. Throop estate, which position entails a large amount of work. Miners' Mass Meeting. A mass meeting of mine-workers and the other labor organizations of the county Is being planned for Dewey duy. May 1. It Is proposed to hold the meet ing In the open air, though no plnce has been decided upon as yet. The meeting will be under the aus pices of the United Mine Workers ot America, and It Is hoped that Presi dent Gompers, of the American Feder ation of Labor, and Vice-President Lewis, of the Mine Workers, will be present to deliver addresses. A special meeting of the Central Labor union has been called for tomorrow afternoon to make arrangements -for tho affair. From Wilkes-Bnrre to Hazleton. For heveral days past surveyors have been at work on the proposed 'routo of tho trolley line from Hazleton to Wllkett-Uarrc via Conyngham valley. No one connected with the project Is willing to bo interviewed on the mat ter, however, and definite Information Is hard to get. An agent has been through Conyng ham and nutler valleys and secured options on land which tho projectors of tho new road will need. All but a few parties through whose farms the road Is to run have consented to sell. The activity on thu part of agents time my body was covered with scales caused by an affliction of dry eczema. Having commenced treatment with Hood's Sarsapa rilla I continued taking tho second bottle, after which 1 could sleep well. Sly digestion began to improve and I fell nway in weight. T have little or no trouble from eczoma now and my weight is 180 pounds, about normal. Sly food digests proper ly and I am not troubled with numbness. I am also able to drink cold water, a privilege which people do not fully appre ciate until they are deprived of it. I think a great deal of Hood's Sarsaparilla and it cer tainly has effected very remark able results." Sins. D. II. Siiellv, 836 Yoeman Street, Ionia, Slich. Sarsaparilla. Hut bo sure you Hood's is Peculiar to Itself. supposed to be connected with the com pany strengthens the belief that the construction of the road Is being seri ously thought of. It Is stated that en gineers will also survey a route thiough Jeddo nnd Highland. Plans have been drawn for this route. Hazleton Plain Speaker. Stroudsburg Humor. Lackawanna civil engineers have re cently been surveying ut Gravel Place, which strengthens tho report that the Scranton shops may be removed there. The company owns slxty-flvc acres of land, splendidly adapted to tho purpose, at Gravel Place, and adjacent land could bo had almost for the asking, were it desired. Located Just about midway between Blnghamton and Ho boken, and at the foot of the Pocono mountain, it is argued that this site for the company's shops could not be improved upon. Stroudsburg' Times.

Negligee Shirts afford a genuine relief from the severity of gcntlemen'-s linen. Our great showing of "LION BRAND" garments arc distinguished by a wide variety of tasteful designs, a smoothucss and finish not usually found in ready-made goods. They provide an exceptional opportunity to express individuality in selection aud combine a stylish appearance with comfort. Men who are hard to suit 'are earnestly recommended to come in and see how little they can find in this collection to criticise. Men who hava decided ideas as to what a Summer Shirt should be are invited to discover how thor oughly we agree with them. There is a showing here that is representative. In the "Novelty" Weaves the sorts that some people call "exclusive" because they are somewhat uncommon we show two hundred styles. Most of these are in the fine Madras Cloth combinations that are destined for strong popularity among well-dressed men this summer. Prices from one dollar to two dollars each. We call these "Negligee" Shirts because they are principally of the soft-bosom variety, intended for hot weather comfort. But most of these new ones are as dressy as you could wish a summer garb to be. The dignified, effective, rather simple patterns, the beautiful colorings aud the plentiful use of silk, achieve this result, At $1.00 A very remarkable Shirt of Madras to be woin with white collar. One pair of detachable cuffs to match shirt pattern. The finish aud detail of this shirt will command instant attention.
