LEXINGTON, S. C.,
WEDNESDAY. FEBRUARY 15. 1600.
At Pasig and Paranaqne.
The situation is practically unchanged.
The American line has
not been appreciably extended and the
* ii_ I.L: L
iroops generally are rasing uiucu
needed rest. Reconaissances show
the Filliponos are in force in the villages
Pdsig and Paraneque, probably
7,000 men at the latter place within
strong fortifc .lions. All is quiet
along the line when this dispitch is
# filed at noon.
5:15 p. m. The provost guard is
in absolute control of Manila. All
fears of a native unrising in the city
were dispelled by the promptitude
which quelled the outbreak on Monday
evening. The streets were deserted
last evening by 9 o'clock, not
a light was to be seen in the native
-- quarter. . ,
The Fillipinos soldiers accustomed
to Spanish methods, are continaully ;
inquiring of the American soldiers
when the prisoners are to be executed. ,
They seem unable to realize that orders
have not already been issued for ,
the execution. Indeed, headquart- ;
ers is besiged by women to plead for
lirno rvf 4 V> ai' va) A I

All is quiet a Cavite. Owing to
the lack of snpplies in the adjacent
village of San Roque, Commissary
Milliken has been authorized to sell
necessaries to those able to pay for
them, and there will be a distribution
of free rations to others. The rebels,
it appeared, had loopholed a church
tower in Cavite, evidently with the
purpose of occupying it with sharpshooters.
Senor Aguilloe, the Fillipino excommissioner,
made an unofficial visit
to Gen. Otis. Tomorrow is the first
day of the Chinese New Year and
orders have been issued prohibiting
fireworks. Pumping at the waterworks
has been resumed.
Gen. Hale's brigade, consisting of
the First South Dakota mfantry, First
Colorado infantry, and First Nebraska
infantry, supported by a battery
of the Utah light artillery, occupies
the most advanced post in the
- American line, fully fen miles from
the base of supplies. It has an almost
perfect position. Four guDS of
Utah artillery stationed on a hill behind
the waterworks command the
va'ley to the right and left and the
foot hills in front.
Two companies of the Colorados
support the Twenty-third infantry,
which is encamped near the waterworks,
while the Nebraskans are encamped
at the reservoir, three miles
to the rear. Outposts line the ridere
overlooking the valley, while a sand
bank entrenchment, with gun emplacement,
fronts the river.
Yesterday the Utahs shelled into
the villages across the river. The
natives disappeared among the hills,
the main body retiring to the right
and others scattering. Subsequently
the Americans reconoitered and found
the village of San Pedro completely
deserted. They did not burn it and
today the villagers returned in small
parties, bearing bamboos to which
white flags were fastened. They
kept, however, out of range. Later
signal fires were lighted along the
ridge on the other side of the valley.

Old Bits from Baby Lips.
Stories of infantile wit and humor
are so popular nowadays, the New
York Tribune is prompted to give
he followine:
Little Harry, three-years old, was j
informed by bis mother that his aunt j
and little cousin were on the steamer |
homeward bound from England, and i
that he ought to ask for their safety ,
in his prayers. Accordingly, he in- j
eluded them nightly in his childish j
petitions, until they at length ar- j
rived. The evening after their return ;
he said his prayers, as usual, at his j
mother's knee. He paused a mo j
ment, and then she was astonished ;
to hear:
"And, 0 Dawd, you needn't bother
any more about aunt Fanny and little
Joe. They dot here all right.''
A certain mother in Rhode Island
city selected an inauspicious Sunday j
to take her small boy to church for j
the first time. It happened to be a ;
communion service, and tLe list |
comer was deeply interested in all j
that occurred. At length be exclaim- !
ed, in an audible and delighted whisper,
"Mamma, mamma, they're going
to pass the cake, ain't the}? *
The oldest son of a Harlem house- !
hold had been to Europe for au tx- j
tended trip, and on his return, a j
small brother, four years old, fol- j
lowed him about with open-eyed and j
open-cared admiration. There was I
a family dinner to commemorate the |
young fellow's return, and the four- i
year-old appeared at the table for a
moment on his way to bed. He was
at bashful as children usually are at
MaHiHHMMHaaMBBeMni
such times, UDtil suddenly he said,
"Pa, is damn a French word?"
"No, my child," said the horrified
parent.
"You must never say that again."
"Well," rejoined the unterrified infant,
"Brother Charley says it's
French for 'Ob, my," and he always
says it when he puts on his collar.''
Brother Charlej's sentiment toward
his youthful relative can be
better imagined than described.
Greater infantile acumen, however,
was displayed by the small boy in a
suburban town, who swallowed a
penny. 4 Kitty," called his alarmed
mother to her sister in the next
" - 1 a. \v,n;0
room, "sena ior iue uwiw, nm.c
has swallowed a penny!"
"No, rnrnma," interposed the terrified
aDd frightened victim; "send
for the minister."
"Wb)?M falted his mother.
"Because papa says our minister
can get money out of anybody/'
Th.o Army Bill Must Pass. |
? i
Or the President will be Forced to
Call an Extra Session.
Washington, Feb. 9.?The Post
says: The army re-organization bill
must pass or the President will call
an extra session of Congress.
The opposition to the bill in the
Senate has already been frequently
referred to in the Post, and the prediction
made that some compromise
would be agreed to whereby legislation
of a temporary character would
be placed upon the army appropriation
bill. This will.not satisfy the
Administration. No makeshift ex
pedient will be excepted. The Pres
' L A nooc. I
ueiii use uciaiuiucu tuai ilh.- j;#ocage
of the army bill shall b9 made
aD issue, and there is no doubt in
Administration circles that he will be
successful. If, however, if any ob
stacles should prevent actioD, an extra
session will surely be held.
The conditions which have aiisen
leave no other course to be pursued
by the President. A decision has
been rendered by the Attorney General
to the effect that as soon as the
ratification of the peace treaty are exchanged
the volunteer soldiers c%n
no longer be retained in service.
This is also true, the Attorney General
holds, of the additional regulars
who were enlisted for the war with
Spain. Consequently without the
desired legislation the President will
find himself with an army reduced
from 65,000 to 25,000 men.

London, Feb. 8.?The debate on
the address in reply to the Q jeen'a
speech at the opening of Parliament,
yesterday, continued in the House of
Commons today. Sir Ellis Ashmead,
Conservative, moved an amendment
askiDg the government to take early
and effective measures to assist
China to maintain her territorial independence.
He argued that that
was the only possible policy for Great
BritiaD. The speaker further as- !
serted that the policy of present in- |

and it is doubtful, in his opinion, if

A Favorable Report
On Bill to Re-imburse Governors for
Funds Expended~on Soldiers.
Washington, February 9.?The
Senate committee on military affairs,
at the instigation of Senator Tillman,
today agreed to report the bill introduced
by Senator Fairbanks for the
re-imbursement of Governors of
Stales for moneys expended in connection
with the recent war with
Spain. The bill was amendatory c f
the act of July IS last and extends
the provisions of the act so as to include
expenditures made subsequent
to July 8 and prior to August 12,
1898. The committee made several
amendments, one of which provides
that old claims of the government
against ociito ?uau nut UT UOUU ivy
offset these war claims, and another
providing for re-imbursement on ac
count of claims growing out of the
enrollment of individual men who
were not members of military organizations,
and, also, for the settlement
of claims growing out of the enlistment
of the immune and cowboy reg
iments.

Gsngarce Navagation.
Senator Tillman Asks for ?250,000
to Improve It.
Colombia Diily Record.
Senator Tillman has introduced an
amendment to the river and harbor
bill which will mean much to Columbia
should it become a law.
He asks for an appropriation of
?250,000 to improve the CoDgaree
river so as to insure navagation to the
foot of Gervais street. Fifty thousand
dollars of the amount is to be used
vearlv until the anuronriation is ex
+r / ? - ti ?
hausted.
The sum asked for is the amount
United States engineers have estimated
would be sufficient to accomplish
the desired end. Senator Tillman
is taking a personal interest in
the matter and is working hard to
have his amendment adopted. He
expresses his belief that he will succeed
in the Senate, and it is to be
hoped that Congressman Wilson and
other Representatives from the State
will succeed in securing its passsge
by the House.
N tvagation of the river to Gervais
street has long been a dream of Columbia,
but all efforts to accomplish
anything heretofore has met with a
failure.
If Senator Tillman succeeds in his
endeavor he will have the lasting
gratitude of the people of Columbia
as well as others interested *ho live
along the river.
Another Battle.
Filipinos Mowed Down by tLe
Americans Fire?Oar Losses Com
paratively Small?Aguinaldo Prepariog
for a Decisive Blow.
Manila, Feb. 10?Oar forces att
tcked Cilooacan this afternoon. The
action was short and decisive. The
Filipinos were driven out of the intrenchmente,
our soldiers charging
fiercely over all obstacles, engaging
the foe hand t) hand. The rebels
flel in all directions and were mowed
down under our fire. It is estimated
that fully twenty thousand were intrenched.
Oar losses were small.
The rebel loss was very heavy.
Manila, Feb. 10?At 10 this morning
the rebels selected Malaboon as
a base of operations for the next encounter.
A considerable force is
consentrating there and many small
bodies are straggling in from the interior.
Aguinaldo is reported tc
| have established headquarters at
Malaboon to rally his forces for a de
cisive blow. Iu order to cover theii
movements, the rebels again opened
fire on the outposts of the Kansas
l regiment from the jungle, and kept
it up twenty minutes without effect
The Americans reserved their fire
until a detachment of the enemy
emerged from the bamboo when s
volley made the rebels scuttle to
cover.
The fighting lasted three hours.
Gen. O.is beiog in command and was
assisted by the gunboat Concord and
the monitor Menadnock and a line
of artillery. The insurgents were
missing at M Iaboon, Cilooacan unti
the battle began. It is reported tha
s'x thousand were there. Io re
sponse to Dewej's threat to bombarc
San Rjque, the rebels hoisted th
white fl ?g. The Fifty-first Iowa en
tering shortly after, found the village
evacuated and burning.
