They extend almost due north and south from For mosa to Borneo, and they separate the South China Sea from the Pacific Ocean. The number of islands in the Philip pines is variously estimated from 1,200 o 1.400, and it was not until the last Jew years that some of the larger islands were explored sufficiently to enable their area to be accurately computed. According to Domann's map (1882) the area of the islands was 114,356 square miles. The two largest islands are Luzon (area. 40,023) and Mindanao. Their aggregate area is 62,650 square miles. The islands were discovered by Ma gellan in 1521. and Manila, the capital, was founded by Legaspi in 1571, and since that time they have been under the dominion of Spain. Their conquest and retention was in marked contrast to the usual Spanish methods of dealing with conquered people, methods of which Cortez and Pizarro are the chief exponents. Legaspi with six Augustin ians and a handful of soldiers accom plished the wonderful work of conquest. Without greed for gold and without any exhibition of cruelty or persecution, these devoted men labored among the dooile people until they won their con fidence, so that the islands were seized with little bloodshed and no massacre or depopulation. The name "Islas Filipas" was given by Legaspi in 1567. Contests with frontier rebellious tribes, attacks by pirates, earthquakes and typhoons serve to break up the mono tony of an otherwise uneventful history. Manila was captured by the English under Draper and Cornish in 1762, and ransomed for $5,000,000, but was restor ed in 1764 The present insurrections in the islands were put down with an iron hand and many atrocities were committed, so that it is little wonder that many of the inhabitants look upon the arrival of the Americans as a de liverance. While none of the islands have very high mountains (the highest, Apo. in Mindanao, being over 9.000 feet), still all the islands may be described in gen eral as mountainous and hilly. Vol canic forces have had a large share in shaping the archipelago, but few of the peaks are now volcanic. In 1814 a ter rible eruption destroyed 12,000 people at Camalig, Budiao, Albay, Ouinobatan -- and Daraca. In 1807 the same district was visited with another eruption. The Philippines are also notorious for terri ble typhoons. In 1576 one of the storms burst over Luzon, pouring down the sides of the mountain Mayon, bringing destruction to a number of cities, com pletely ruining 6,000 houses. Typhoons on the coast are also common. The third great evil to which the islands are treated are the earthquakes, which visit, them so frequently that they affect the style adopted in the erection of build ings. The most violent earthquake oc curred in 1880, destroying an immense amount of property, including the cathedral. The Philippine Islands are peculiar in having three seasons—a cold, a hot and a wet. The first extends from Novem "" fW »>±o February or March. The winds are northerly and woolen clothing and a fire are desirable, the sky is clear and the air bracing, and Europeans in this strange clime consider it the pleasantest time of the year. The hot season lasts from March to June and the heat be comes oppressive and thunderstorms of terrific violence are frequent. During July, August, September and October, the rain comes down in torrents and large tracts of the lower country are flooded. The population of the Philip pines is 7,670,000, the capital, Manila? having 154,062 inhabitants. There is a small Spanish resident population and about 100,000 Chinese, in whose hands are the principal industries. The native inhabitans are mostly of the Malayan race. The government is administered by a governor-general and a captain general, and the forty-three provinces are ruled by governors, alcades or com mandants, according to their import ance or position. The estimated reve nue of the islands in 1894-95 was $13,- 500,000 and the expenditure $13,200,000. There is an export duty on tobacco and nearly every article imported in taxed. The chief products are sugar, hemp, coffee and indigo, and there are large coal fields which are now being opened, so that it is expected that 5,001) tons of coal per month may be mined. The imports in 1896 were about $12,000,000 and the exports $20,500,000. There are 70 miles of railway on the islands and 720 miles of telegraph. Manila lies on the western side of the island of Luzon and is about 600 miles from Hong-Kong. It has one of the most spacious and beautiful harbors in the world. The shores are low and in land can be seen the outline of moun tains. The city of Manila resembles a dilapidated fortress surrounded by stone walls 300 years old. There is also a wide, shallow moat. The gates are never closed and it is doubtful if the city could make any defeuse. There is also an old fort. Several creeks branch off from the landlocked bay and afford a means of communication with the suburbs. These creeks are crossed by innumerable bridges, and canoes thread their way through these narrow water ways. which somewhat resemble a tropical Venice. Around the walls and the edge of the bay is a fashionable drive lined with almond trees. It is here that the well-to-do inhabitants walk, drive and meet their friends. Of nearly 300.000 people in the province there are not more than 5,000 Spaniards. One of the most curious sights to the traveler who comes from China are the large two wheel drays drawn by so called water buffaloes. They are guid ed by a ring through their nose to which is attached a cord leading back to the driver, who either mounts on his back or rides on the shafts. The weight of the load is borne on the neck by means of a yoke. The beasts are docile and th< ir chief delight seems to be to wallow in the mud and to submerge themselves so that only the nose is out of the water. The water buffalo is par ticularly valuable to the inhaditants as a beast of burden, as it can drag a plow and can walk while knee deep In mud. The milk of the female is very general ly used instead of cow's milk, but its meat is unfit for food. In the two best streets of Manila there are excellent stores in which goods of all kinds can be purchased at moder ate prices, many of the merchants being Chinese. The churches must have been imposing buildings years ago before they were shaken ami in aoine cases wrecked by earthquakes. They contain no works of art of any value. The in habitants are very faithful to their chnrch and the archbishop possesses* al most unlimited influence with the in habitants. It has often been said, if the priests were taken away.the natives would be ungovernable. The dwelling houses in Manila are constructed with a view of shutting out the intense heat of the summer. The houses are rarely more than two stories in height, owing to the ravages of earthquakes. Glass is j of course unknown, as the earthquakes ■would shiver every pane. There is coal in abundance in the Philippine Islands as already stated, and the streets of Manila would undoubtedly be lighted with coal gas if it were not for the fact that gas pipes would be destroyed in the unstable soil. Of course, accidents are of frequent occurrence with kero sene, but as the natives' houses are very inexpensive, their loss bj* tire is easily made good. Strange to say. life in the old city does not present many points of interest to the traveler, for the streets are nar row and the houses solid and gloomy It is a marked contrast to the business like cities of South America. The Spaniards born in the Iberian Peninsula look down upon those born in the islands, so that class distinctions are very ciosely drawn. This has resulted in the failure to make political comb', nations. Hatred and jealousy of the foreigner are carried to extreme limits, the Chinese coming in for a large share of their disfavor. The theaters are poor, concerts are rare and there is no library and their amusements are mostly limited to hearing the band play, attending balls on Sunday and cock fights. The cockpits are licensed by the government, and, though the betting is limited by law. the citizens will not hold to it. The revenues of the islands are furnished by direct taxes on every Indian, half-breed and Chinese, and the export and imports duties have already been referred to. The dress of the natives is exceeding ly picturesque and is never adopted by the Spanish. Cigar makers in and around the city of Manila number 22,000 and they are all girls and women with the exception of 1,500 men. They present a picturesque appearance with their native costume and huge hats in tended to protect them from the rays of the sun. They make their cigars squat ting on the heels or sitting on bam boo stools two inches high. They fre quently come from considerable dis i tances, going back and forth in beats. Tobacco has always been and probably will continue to be the most important product of the Philippines; and. accord - i ing to the old laws, the Indians were , compelled to raise tobacco in certain regions which were not adapted to growing it, even to the exclusion of other crops, but in 1883 the laws were repealed and the result was the secur ing of liner tobacco and better cigars, for they are now made at a higher rate. The wants of the natives are few and are easily supplied. They live along the banks of tne rivers in huts made of bamboo and cane thatched with palm leaves. Some of the view* in the suburbs of Manila are enchanting. Scietific American. Flick Items. R. J.

Much excitement at Manila. ill pro tect foreign residents. DEw K's. The President promptly telegraphed Dewey thanking him. his officers and men in the name of the American peo ple for the splendid achievement and overwhelming victory," that he has ap pointed him acting admiral and will recommend "a vote of thanks to you I>> Congress as a foundation for further promotion. A vote of thanks clears away ques tions of seniority in promotion, and will authorize the President to at once ap point Commander Dewey an admiral. The question of what is to be done with the Philippines at once came to the front. Fast steamers convoyed by armored cruisers will leave San I- ran cisco this week as soon as they can be got ready with 3.000 or 4,000 troops, regulars and volunteers, for Mam 1 a The city will be occupied, some sort of provisional government established and the Philippines held as an important element in peace negotiations. Ihe vessels will also carry ample supplies of all kinds, pioisions, medical stores and ammunition. DETAILS OF THE BATTLE. A press correspondent, under date of May 7, sent the following from Hong Kong—The conquest of Manila Bay by Commodore Dewey will go down in history as the most remarkable naval battle ever fought. From reliable advices received di rect here to-night it is now known that the United States' forces destroyed eleven Spanish ships and captured eight, destroyed four shore batteries ai Cavite, and reduced the three forts on Corregidor Island: that four hundred Spanish sailors and soldiers were killed and that six hundred were wounded. It i.s estimated that the value of Span ish supplies lost and captured aggrega ted at least $5,000,000. The unprecedently remarkable x>art of the engagement is that only eight Americans were slightly wounded, and that the monetary damage waa only .SI,OOO. The engagement lasted just seven hours and forty minutes. The first gun was fired at 5 a. m. and the Spaniards struck flag at 1~.40 p. ill. The American sqnadron slipped into the harbor at night and was well inside ono or two stray shots from the Corregidor forts showed that its pres eace was discovered. Their aim was wild, however, and they did no harm. At dawn Sunday Commodore Dewey began his attack on Admiral Montijo's fleet. By noon ten of the Spanish ships had been sunk. The effectiveness of the American gunners is shown by the fact that out of a crew of 400 on the Spanish flagship Reina Cristina. alone, 140 men, includ ing Captain Cadarso were killed and nearly 100 seriously wounded. Not a man was killed on the Ameri can ships and the few who were injured fought gallantly to the end. The complete surrender of Manila is a question of only a few hours. Com modore Dewey can take it at any time he chooses, for the remaining fortifica tions are weak, and even a brief "peace ful block.-.de" would -force a surrender in a few days. The food supplies are nearly exhaust ed, the inhabitants are penned up like pigs in the old walled portion of the town and communication is impossible with the outside world, for Dewey holds the cable. The .country districts are completely held by the insurgents. Some of the Spaniards at Cavite have even applied to the Americans for pro tection and it will be granted them The ships destroyed by Dewey's fleet are: The Reina Cristina, flagship, and the cruisers Castilla (wooden), Don An tonio de Ulloa. Isla de Luzon, Isla de Cuba: gunboats. General Lezo, Mar quis del Duero, El Corrco, El Correo, El Velazco and the steamship Minda and supplies. These ships were captured; Ciuiser Don Juande Austria, gunboats Isabella, The First Kapido, Hercules, transport Manila, with supplies, two whaleboats and three steam launches. The Corregidor forts made scarcely any opposition to the squadron's en trance. The Spanish evacuated almost instantly, leaving only a commandant tc formally surrender the fortifications. They did not even see the Olympia, Bal timore. Raleigh, Concord, Petrel and Boston pass in. The McCnllocli was the only boiK fired upon and she was not hurt. Seventeen miles up the bay the Span iards exploded two mines, but they "never touched" the gallant Dewey's ships. At Cavite the Spaniards opened the first lire. Dewey made no reply until his squadron was at close rauge. Then his flagship, the Olympia, opened the ball with her eight-inch guns and the other Americans fell in line with the grand naval march, each delivering a storm of metal compliments from their port guns into the cowering Spanish fleet. Then reversing they counter marched, their starboard guns belching forth a terrible fire. Five times did Dewey repeat this maneuver, and on every terrible trip the Maine was avenged with cool deliber ate and deadly intent. Closer and clos er drew the Americans and, like rats driven into a corner, the Spaniards fought against their certain doom At 20 minutes to 11 the battle was re sumed. this time the Baltimore leading of with a terrific assault in the teeth of the enemy, her companions bravely supporting her Xo fleet could withstand this attack, and least of all the terror-stricken Span iards. What ships were not sunk by the American shells they at temped themselves to scuttle or run ashore. But in this they were only partially suc cessful, and at I-': 40 Admiral Monti jo struck his colors, and with as many of his followers as were alive and able fled in small boats to Manila. It was 11 Spanish warships and 5 land batteries against six American warships but every shot counted counted from the latter, while the Dons grew wildly reckless and burned their powder to no purpose. Only once did Dewey cull time for a breathing spell. At *J.-1> o'clock he withdrew to watch the results of his daring attack. He found his own fleet hardly damaged, while in front of him Alfonso's ships were sinking and burn- ( ing , , This ended tha first day's battle, but it was onlv the beginning of tee end. The next day Dewey landed marines at Cavite, and" completing the destruc tion of the batteries, they ran up Old Glory" and established protection for the Spanish hospitals One gun from the Olympia made the wav clear for the marines and blew np the Cavite arsenal. Remember the Maine" was the watchword for Commodore Dewey s men throughout the fight, and every man had confidence in his commander. Had it not been for the eagerness of the fireman on the McCulloch in stirr ing their fires the presence of Uncle Sam's fleet might possibly not have been discovered at Cavite at all. Their ac tion caused the McCulloch s funnel to emit a shower of fiery sparks, and the next instant there was a boom and a shot from one of the forts on Coroetfidor island. Others followed in quick succession, but so wide of the mark were they that the American gunners had to laugh in spite os their serious position. Then the Concord sent the first Amer ican shot :igainst the Spaniards in the Philipines. The Boston followed, and for a time the batteries were silenced. 1 hen came the most terrible suspense and doubt of the entire engagement. The American ships were passing over mines that might at any moment blow them into utoms like the Maine. But Dewey pressed on as if he knew no fear, all the time keeping a close watch on Aguinaldo, she insurgent chief, who was acting as his pilot. Not a word of command or direction came from this Farragnt of '9B until the dawning day showed the Spanish fleet cowering under the Cavite batteries Then when the Spanish snarled at him with an opening shot he turned loose his deadlv fire and rushed into the greatest naval bettle of modem times. Once the men forgot themselves. The Olvmpia was lost to sight in a cloud of smoke and a roar of artillery, and the other men of the fleet feared that she had been blown up by a mine. But the smoke cleared away and ehe Olympia showed that she was all right by send ing a terrific broadside into the Reina Christina. Then the men cheered and yelled, and even cried in their mad de light. During the rest of the engage ment they were as cool and deliberate as if at target practice. When Dewey withdraw to see what damage he had w-iought. the Spaniards essayed a cheer, evidently believing that"he had given np the battle. But they did not know the man. He heard iht> cheers, and with a half sneer, uncon sciously perhaps, remarked to an aide in the language of the great Paul Jones: "Umph! We haven't begun to fight yet:" , And the result showed that he hadn t. The last shot of the engagement was fired by the gun boat Petrel. Comuiodore Dewey is now in full pos sessian of the entrance to the harbor of Manila and maintaining a close block ade of the port while awaiting orders from Washington. Whether or not he is directed to take active measures to capture the town he is confident of its speedy surrender for the inhabitants are likely to be soon in a starving condition. Meanwhile his ships, such as are not absolutely necessary to maintain the blockade." are cruising about the neigh boring waters, capturing all ships that fly the Spanish yellow and red. General Autrusti wire* of his Defeat. MADRID, MAY 7. —An official dis patach from General Augusti, governor general of the Philippines, sent by way of Labuan, says: "The enemy seized Cavite and the arsenal owing to the destruction of the Spanish squadron, and established a close blockade. It is said that, at the re quest of the consuls, the enemy will not bombard Manila for the present, provided I d > not open fire upon its squadron, which is out of range of our guns. Therefore I cannot fire until they come nearer. "A thousand sailors arrived here yesterday evening from our destroyed squadron, the losses of which number WAR RECORD. On Thursday no word had yet oeen received from Dewey. Sampson was supposed to be on his way to Porto Ri CO. The riots continued in Spain, there, was a fight at Mnrcia between miners and troops and Spain couldn't get mon ey in London. Messengers to Gomez were landed in eastern Cuba. On Friday the people of San Juan in Porto Rico were preparing to receive the Spanish fleet: the harbor was clear ed of merchant vessels. On Saturday a Carlist deputy in the Spanish Congress veflcotod upon the Queen and was expelled; rioting and bloodshed continued in different parts of the country. All day Sunday and Monday the Na tion was expecting news from Admiral Sampson's fleet, which was cruising around the West Indies hoping to meet the Spanish, deet, which was reported at Barbadoes *md Martinique. On Tuesday the Spanish fleet was re ported at Cadiz, Spain, which if true would indicate that after sailing west ward from the islands they turned tiil and went back. The news was very disappointing, Sampson will probably take the port ot San Juan in Porto Rico. Gan. Miles went to Tampa; the gover nment chartered a dozen large trans ports; ten thousand hammocks were or dered as it is not safe to sleep on the grouud in Cul*i during the wet season; and everything looked like the move ment of an army into Cuba. In Madrid there was a commotion in the Cortes and threatened revolution. The riots in different parts of Spain and the "Bread riots" in Italy continued. In Manilla Admiral Montejo and his two sons were reported killed by a Spanish mob, while outside the city the insurgents were becoming dangerous. ORDERED TO TAMPA. Gov. Hastings received orders at Camp Hastings yesterday from the War Department to forward six regiments to Tampa as soon as possible. That number has been mustered in and may be able to move not later than to-morrow night. Cars are now in waiting to transport the brave Keystone troops to the southern point of mobili zation, where they will be joined to the forces now preparing to invade Cuba. There is intense enthusiasm at camp in consequence of the order. The regiments to go will be the first six that have been mustered in. They are the First, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Fif teenth and Sixteenth. The latter three are from Western Pennsylvania, and comprise almost half of the second Bri gade. These regiments are the first of the volunteer army who will assist in driving the Dons from the stricken Is land of Cuba. It is considered that the ordering of the Pennsylvania Guard into the field at once is a sure sign of appreciation of their efficiency by Uncle Sam. While no orders have been given ont the army officers seem to think that the greater part of Pennsylvania's quota will go to Cuba. Mure than half of the Pennsylvania Guard was mustered into the regular service amid scenes that were both dra matic and pattoetic. Butler beiongi to the lit ' Ite< ruih« for Co. E.

E, l."»tli Kcaiment, Camp Hastings. CHAUTAUQUA P. 0., LEBANON CO.. PA. SATURDAY, MAY 7. 1898. As we wrote before Co. E volunteer ed every man into the U. S. service which the law permitted her to, and that was sixty men and three officers. We had sixty-three men along, so three had to be left out. Everyone of us wanted to go in and had said so before leaving Butler. Allison and Mitchell were selected to stay out because neith er could pass the physical examination. Barr received word of sickness in his family and he did just what he should have done, returned to Butler to care for his own. The full Fifteenth Regi ment volunteered. We were cheered and hurrahed for by the other regi ments. After it was over Col. Krepps spoke a few words to each company. To our boys he said "this is the happiest and proudest moment of my life." We had a week of miserably wet weather. Rain fell all Monday after noon, Tuesday and Wednesday were dry and nice, but it started to rain Thursday morning and has been at it ever since. Everyone is soaked from the soles of his feet to the crown of his head We can't drill, have roll call, gnardmount or do anything else except be wet and uncomfortable. The red mud in our company street is not more than a yard deep. We all hug the big sheet-iron stove in the cook house as much as we can. Several have bought small oil stoves which make the tents somewhat warmer. Sergeant O'Don nel, Corps. Jackson and Kamerer, and privates John Pierce, Hindman and Bowser, the cook, have each had little sick spells, but not lasting more than one day. A tent that don't leak is a mighty good thing in vvel wtiUkwi. of our heads, and yet never a drop of it reach ing us. Wednesday we had company drill once and batallion twice under Junior Maj. Baker of Meadville. He was elect ed last winter vice Maj. Hanna, resign ed, and the regimental officers can con gratulate theinselvs for the choice of such an efficient and model officer. Wednesday there were two tragedies in Co. E, one youngster who is noted for his volumnions dramatic speeches, broke loose in a tragic harangue about 4:80 a. m., woke everybody in E and G and then went to yelling and pounding each tent to keep us awake. Later all fell to and gave him a pounding which he will remember with groans and sighs to the end of his days. The other tragedy happened thus: A certain one sought to entertain his fel lows with a Dutch song, wh%n behold they fell upon him, roughly carried him to the water spioket, and dampened his musical spirit with a liberal application of cold water. We are not allowed to give the victims' names. Just here let us report that Clarence Graham has found his shoe somewhere and is now as happy as a lark. In a ball game the other day he knocked the ball clear across the lake and half way up Gov! Dick, the mountain to the east. Only small quantities of fire wood have been issued to us. We must get what we can as best we can. There is a grove of young timber between the camp and railroad whose trees have nearly all been cut down and burned. This "morning the company was ordered to fall in in column of twos and then charged on a rail fence which Corporal Jackson had discovered on the west ridge. We captured the enemy and now have wood to burn. There are some immense chestnut trees out here. The trunk of one back of the officers quarters is easily seven feet in diameter. J This afternoon we are carrying slag up from the railroad and paving the streets with it, a great improvement. Prof. E. Mac-key and wife of Reading came out in the rain yesterday to see Co. E jyid invited ns over to visit them if possible. Prof. Mackey formerly had charge of the education of a majority of Co. E's boys and we were glad to see him. The regiment was examined today by the surgeons, Drs. Heiluian, Martin and Wright, who have been commissioned into the U. S. service. Co. E caught it this morning. Everyone passed ex cept private Haz Jackson, who is minus the index finger of his right hand. It was cut off in a lumber mill several years ago. We are sorry to loose him. Several were nearly knocked out by weak eyes. Lieut. Scott left yesterday for Butler to bring out new recruits. He was loaded down with love letters, decorat ed hardtack, etc, before starting. We don't know how long we -will be here yet. Batteries A and C liaye left for Newport News, Va. Several of the University of Pennsylvania football players are in battery A. Some of Co. E's boys went over to their camp and kicked a ball about with them. The guard will not be taken away from Mt. Gretna until the recruits are brought here and equipped, after which the completed Division will be moved. SUNDAY, MAY 8. That miserable rain, driven by a cold, strong east wind has been coming down in torrents since yesterday afternoon. The camp is a veritable lake of mud. All the little cinder paths we made yesterday are sub merged. The cooktent partly blowed down this morning and the officers' tent started traveling also. They had to be caught and pinned down again. It is very pleasant to work with wet canvas in the rain and mud, I don't think The water is running through all our tents and there are several inches of it in some. Most of us have been in bed all day. That is the only place the least bit comfortable. We are not only wet through, but we are hungry. Bread and coffee for breakfast and coffee alone for dinner. We feel that someone should be kicked at least seven times around the camp, but don't know just who it is. We saw sonic recruits come in for the First brigade this morning. They were dressed in light citizens clothes, were soaking wet and mud tJ the knees The rain ha«l soaked through and wash ed the wrappers off the bundles of clothing and fi*xl they carried. Their faces showed depression and misery. Poor follows we pitied them, though in little better shape ourselves. The Y. SI. C. A. tent is blown down This camp is the most woe-bt-gone and God foresaken place in America today. There was a small railroad smashnp juit below our camp this afternoon and a passenger car demolished. LATER ;—Bowser cooked ns a good supper, bean soup, boiled beef, bread, and hot coffee with sugar, the clouds have broken, the sun has come out and we will whip Spain and free Cuba yet. MIINDAY \ FTEKNOON: -Nice weather once more. We have dug ditches suf ficiently deep to drain our company quarters, if there is any more rain. This morning was frosty and so cold that the tent canvas was frozen stiff. Some of the Fifteenth recruits have arrived, thirty came from Mercer Co. for Co. G. We expect Lieut. Scott to bring ours in tomorrow morning. Squads of new ones have been coming in all day. Haz. Jackson and Wensel Walker, who has been with ns through our seige of bad weather, start for But ler this evening. The new recruits will be equipped to morrow and we will be immediately mustered into the U. S. service. TUESDAY. This is written in the Second brigade Y. M. C. A. tent, which, all covered with red mud. has been set up again. Lieutenant Scott with Co E's twenty-five new recruits, baggage and a large number of pack ages from our Butler friends arrived this morning. We are very proud of our new meml>ers. for no better looking lot have come in. And then we know they were first class fellows at home. They have been examined by the sur geon already. Six or seven will have to be returned to Butler because there is no room for them. We will be accoutred and mustered into the U. S. service immedi ately, and expect to be shipped away before many days. Battery B. is leaving this afternoon: it is reported they are being taken to Fort Niagara. Cars are waiting here to transport the second brigade. Among our new accoutrements will be repeat ing rifles and cartridge belts. Next to our recruits the most wel come arrival in Co. E today was that of two barrels of "good things" con signed to the U. P. squad of Co. E from the young people of the Bntler U. P church. Corp Jackson and private Waters found the barrels at the exjiress office this morning. The expressage was marked paid so each took a barrel on his back and carried it over to camp There each one of the U. P. Squad took out packages addressed to himself. The remaining contents were then turned over to Commissary Martin who issued them share alike to the whole company. Company E sends its heart} - and unanimous thanks to Our Young Peoples Christian Union of the U. P. chnrch. Those to whom it was consigned express their special thanks and regards for their fellow church members. U. P's. are popular here today. But onr Bntler friends must not think the State is neg lecting or starving us. We get plenty of food, plain but health}*. The only fault to be found was a little irregularity in the issue of it, which was no doubt due to the very bad weather we had. Co. E. has had its first accident. Ser geants O'Donnel and Alexander and pri vate Eckelberger have been messing to gether. Last night was very chilly and they left an oil lamp burning in the t ?nt to warm it a little. Abjut 2 A. M. Alexander, tossing in his sleep, stuck his foot out of the bed and kicked the lamp over. The tent aud contents were partly destroyed in the resulting fire. John's clothes were ignited and his left log quite badly burned below the knee. He is in the hospital today, but the surgeon says he will be aole to walk about again tomorrow. The oth ers were not hurt. Private Simonel has returned to Butler. A few moments ago Col. Morrel, In spector Gen. of the N. G. P. was thrown violently from his horse and was very badly injured. He is uncon scious now. Gov Hasting has just rid den past on his way to see the injured man- who is in the 18th Regiment, hos pital tent. Heretofore we have been under the impression that there would be twelve corporals under the U. S. Company organization. The truth is there will it will be 115.60 a nfonth. A corporal s pay is a trifle more. E. H. NEGI.EY. Milliard I uion. The Hilliard W. C. T. U. held memo rial services in honor of Miss Willard, on April 24th.
