The American army on Friday can- lured Maloloe, the capital of-the Filipi no Republic. Before'its occupation the ofllctHls made good their escape. This probably ends the 8pi ing campaign, as the rainy season is about beginning, and unacclimated Americans will have to stay dry. The Filipino forces re treated too rapully before the American advance to allow a decisive blow toJie struck. The Filipino loss Is put at 10, 000 killejl,- wounded and_ prisoners, iwhlle Gen.. Otis reports the American foag In seve’l weeks at 157 killed and K^f wounded. Dewfcy and Otis have called for morwsltlu.s and mep and the government will (Jispatch as quickly as possible 20,000 additional troops, and a goodly lleet of vessels au tabtcLfub, blockading purposes. Americans |tt the scene of war believe that the tight T ing spirit has been whipped on of the Filipinos. 'I’iiey will probably resort to guerrilla warfare, in which they ate atliomo. V. - The political prophets are saying that the following candidates w ill lead the two great parties in the President ial campaign of IDOU: Republican—William McKinley of Ohio, Theodore .Roosevelt of New York. Democratic—William J. Bryan of Nebraska, Winfield Scott Schley of Maryland.

Bet ter be childless and sleep soundly than the parent of a noisy progeny that is always colicky and teething.—St. Lou ts Republic. •'The war for humanity” goes merri ly on. Monday's dispatches from Ma nilla state that the commissioners sent out by President McKinley to decide upon a solution of the Philippine prob lem have decided to issue “an eminent ly humane document,” which “will give the natives a choice of surrender or practical extinction.” In Texas courts the ready pistol is quoted about as often as Blackstone, and with more effect. At Sweetwater Lawyer C. P. Woodruff shot an! killed County Judge John II. Cochran be cause he would not approve a bill of exceptions, and at Franklin on tlie same day Judge Cannon killed Lawyer Gray for reasons not make public. Twenty years ago Scotchman Gan> •on went to Lancaster. He had $0) in money and borrowed $5lX) more. On that capital he began merrhandiffing, spending $300 a year in advertising. .He js worth a cool $100,000 now, and ‘keeps ou advertising and getting rich er. And there are other towns where like methods would produce like results. tV < SiWce the deposition of Gen. Gomez., commander of the insurgent forces during the war between Spain and Cu ba, by the Cuban Assembly, large aumhers of Spaniards are leaving the fkland for Spain and Mexico. They allege as reason for their exodus that Cuban soldiers are murdering Span iards, and that there is nobody to pun ish the menslayers now that Gomez is stripped of power. THK NEW WORLD. Tire Western Continent,- since Its dis covery by Columbus & Co., ims been called “The New World.” Yetr there are evidences in the Mississippi Valley, front the head waters to the iliotitji of the “Father of Floods,” that this eoitti- Iry was theatre oT'a'cTTOtzatton .** old perhaps as that commenced by Adam. That the great West was,peopled by a wise and numerous race is true lie-, yond doubt, but before the re! man’s occupancy it passed away. There Is no tradition of tlie manner of its extinct ion. We simply know that such » peo pie once existed from the works that have defied the touch of lime. From a recent Western paper we take the fol lowing: Major Lamar Fontaine of Lyons. Miss, the widely km>w*n and accom plished dvll engineer, has just return ed from a profcsstonnl engagement in Dealt*, Drew and A»h!ey comities, Ar kansas, and brings a story of the dis covery of a prehistoric city. ^ - “I passed through the ruins of the' city,” Major FonUUno said, “east and west for a 'distance of 35 miles, and as far as my eye could reach, the ruins still continued-.’ Turning north for a distance of Sj miles, tlie ruins did not end. Compuiifig the nVtea thus trav ersed. and estiinatfntr that each dwell ing contained' five Inhabitants,.

These people numbered countless million* and the Vazoo Vnl- loy was thi ir field. The entire delta of the Yazoo was hi a Ii’gh state of.culti vation. Every acre was utilized for agricultural purposes. Thousands of canals were dug and iised for irrigation and navigation, and countless pottery, lactdries show that they manufactured superior artUT’s of cart lien ware for do mestic purposes.
