AVOCA.
The esteem and admiration In which
Rev. M. F. Crane Is held by tho people
of Avoca was demonstrated on Satur
day evening, when a brilliant ovation
was tendered him by the citizens Im
mediately after his arrival from his
trans-Atlantic trip. The societies con
nected with the church formed near
the parochial residence and with fly
ing colors and martial music marched
to the borough limits and afterward to
the churchyard, where a platform dec
orated with palms, ferns, roses anil
national colors was erected. Prof C.
F. Hoban acted as chairman, and after
a few remarks St. Mary's choir ren
dered a few choice selections Attor
ney M. J. Dixon was chosen to repre
sent, the societies and In their behalf
present him with a purse contributed
by them. vMr. Dixon hah often been
heard at public assemblages, but his
oration on Saturday was a most elo
quent one, and In alluding to Father
Crane's devotion and sacrifices during
his twenty-live years' pastorate every
one present voiced his sentiments and
felt grateful for his safe return. Father
Crane responded with a feeling of emo
tion that betrayed his feelings, and for
a time he could scarcely find words to
express his gratitude. During his ab
sence the parochial residence and the
sanctuary have been beautified, which
work is largely due to the efforts of
Rev. T. P. Carmody. At 10.30 o'clock
mass yesterday he talked about his
trip, particularly to Jerusalem, Beth
lehem and Llberlus, and that each
plnce he offered the holy sacrifice of
the mass for the benefit of tho loved
ones at home. He told of his Inter
view with his holiness. Pope Leo XIII.,
and the kindness he felt toward the
American Catholics. When he spoke
of his trip through dear old Ireland
the true nature of the crowd revealed
Itself and many of them felt as If they
were once more sharing the scenes of
their childhood. After mass he gave
the congregation the papal benediction.
The school board will meet this even

more, were visitors In town yesterday.

Frank Smith, aged fifteen years, died
yesterday morning nt the family resi
dence on Main streC't, after a brief Ill
ness, Deceased worked on Friday, and
In the evening complained of severe
pains, but nothing serious was antici
pated. Dr. Bergo was called in and at
once administered to him, but he
showed little signs of Improvement.
Towards morning he became uncon
scious, When his brother failed to
arouse him he summoned his mother
and In a few moments their fears were
realized. This Is the third death that
has occurred In the family within two
years. The funeral will take place to
morrow afternoon. Interment will be
In Mosler's cemetery. '
Would Not Suffer So Again For Fif
ty Times Its Price.
I awoke last night with severe
pains In my stomach, r never felt so
badly In all my life. When I camo
down to work this morning I felt so
weak I could harly work. I went to
Miller & McCurdy's drug store and
they recommended Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.
It worked like magic and one dose
fixed me all right. It certainly Is the
finest thing I ever used for stomach
trouble. I shall not be without It In
my home hereafter, for I should not
enro to endure the sufferings of last
night again for fifty times Its price.

CAMPAIGNING IN
THE PHILIPPINES
LETTER RECEIVED FROM LIEU
' TENANT MURPHY.
It Wai Addressed to Ohlef-of-PoHce
Frank Robllng and Tolls of the
Experience That Unclo Sam's Men
Aro Undergoing in Our Eastern
Possessions Battalion, tho Writer
Is a Membor of, Has Killed 400 of
tho Natives and Injured Many
Others.
Chief of Police Frank Robllng Fri
day received tho following letter from
Lieutenant Thomas Murphy, of this
city, t present serving In tho Philip
pines, and who was formerly a mem
ber of Company C, of the Thirteenth
regiment, then under Captain Robllng.
The badge mentioned in the letter ac
companies tho missive and Is a very
odd looking speclment of police au
thority. It is merely a short strip of
leather upon which Is the legend, "Po
llcia de Bacaca," or police of Bacaca.
The letter follows;
Irficupl. P. I., April 20tli, 1000.
Dear KrlcnJ Krank: ThlnitJ arc still nunlng
oicr here. Two companies went out on a
cout lait week ami were arolnifhed; one man
a killed, another wounded. The point where
they had the trouble was an old hamrout for
the I'iHplnoi. After the companies returned
our colonel received a letter from the maior In
Hie Filipino army, which read on this order:
"I sec jou still send jour troop up here to
bother us, and row- I will Rbc jou a little
notice. In the ilrt plate, I would like tu
know what jrou want. If It is Bold, why don't
jou po and work lor It like we do. Hut If It
Is fleht you need not wear your men out by
KinillnR them up here. Jut kiep them at I.o
Kapl and I will conic there, and when I come
It will be with Ore and sword."
lie also ssiri;
"I know this will be bad for both of us. but
when I itet through with jou I don't think jou
will want to send an more of your men to
bother me or my town." Signed by ft major
of the Filipino ariHi, whoso name I hale for
gotten. These are not the words he used, but as near
them as I can remember.
Well, after the colonel read this letter he said:
"Well, we will catch this fine major when ho
comes, but In tho meantime we will go and
gie him a little more on his own ground." So,
last night, flftj' men it Comiunj- 1 went out
and surrounded one of the major's post. I don't
know how many men there was flt It, but wo
killed ten and wounded federal others. I sup
pose the major will think our colonel is a mean
man.
The place this little fight took place is about
six miles from Uoraga, where we haie one
cempany. The roads arc all Intrenched and the
Filipino army use one of thchc trenches as a
post where thej- stop all people that are coming
in with hemp, and compel them to pay the
Filipino government $ for eerj- bale that
comes in, and then turn It over to this major.
Among the killed was one lieutenant, and of the
four we captured one was a captain. I think
after a few surprises like this I belioo they
will let us alone and go to some other part of
the island.
I am having a big time In this Ood-forsaken
town. I am polke officer of this post and
hao a hard time with natives, to get them to
clean up around their property.
We haie sixty prisoners and I keep them busy
tearing down the trenches built a short time
go.
Sav. Maor, I wish jou were here with obi
Companj- C. Say, we could do some work.
We bid Just the kind of men for this work.
Our great trouble Is we have verj- few troops
here. For Instance, we have three companies
here and three towns to garrison. So jou sec
if we send out many men at one time we have
to Ieac the towns without enough troops to
quell any dMtrbancc that might occur, and as
lure Is so many people in bis town who would
do mot anj thing tn get us, we are obliged to
get out in the right and get back In the morn
ing. Our general is very proud of this regiment,
beiouse we are killing so many of the colored
gentlemen. My battalion alone has killed over
400, and Clod onlj knows how many we have
w ounded.
I (-end jou in this letftr a policeman's badge
of office with the Filipino government. I
found it In one of the goornment buildings in
Ilalacay (police of Palacaj-).
I retcbe your papers with every mall, nnd I
am very thankful to jnu for them. I mailed
jou a small Filipino flag. Its history is: I
found it in the city building at Ilaraga, when
we first "ent there. The building was after
ward burned.
Hemembcr mc to all the boys, and If there is
anjthlng over here jou want let me know and
jou shall have it.
With best wishes of success I remain as ever
Your true friend, Tom.
