SEVERELY CRITICISES
Conduct of Campaign in Luzon,
Declaring (Jeneral Otis
Unfit for tlio Coinmand.
Chicago, Aug. 9.? A special
(lisnafcll to The Trihline frnm Yin
toria, B. C., says : Capt. St. John,
of tho British cruiser Peacock,
who arrived here from Manila by
today's Empress en route home,
declares that Gen. Otis is utterly
ignorant of the necessities or responsibilities
of a campaign in
the tropics, lie has 5,000 dead
to his account, the British otlicer
declares, and h-is hesitation lias
already shown his forces that he
has no grasp on the situation.
Otis' field transport service is
declared to be wretchedly insufficient
and his hospital corps a
farce; and his plan of campaign
calculated to advance the enemy's
imerest as no otner could. A
serious breach is declared to exist
between the United States army
and navy at the front, and Com
m
inander St. John says the "first
thing the United States govern
meat should do is to recall this
man. It is really pitiful to see
the sacrifice of the splendid men
of his army."
Incidentally Commander St.
John says that the press censorship
is carried to the extreme in
Manila to save Otis from being
swept down in a flood of populaj
indignation.
DeWitt's Little Karly Risers did me
more good than all blood medicines

steady nerves, a clear brain and a
healthy appetite. Crawford Itros.
Tlio Excursion to Yorkvillc.
An excursion for the colored
people was run last Tuesday from
Lancaster to this place, and was
the best attended one probably
for a time. The principle feature
of the occasion was to be the laying
of the corner stone to the new
church being built bv the African
Methodist Episcopal /ion congre
gation, but in the absence of the
. master of ceremonies it did not
j materialize, and necessitated an
indefinite postponement of the
ceremonies. Though the object
| for which they came was a tail
I lire, vet we think the visitors will
| have little to regret in their visit
I as they seemed to enjoy them
solves immensely by parading the
streets and feasting thoir eyes on
the curiosities of the town. It wa>
the best behaved set that has beer
here in a longtime. A brass band
came along, which added life tc
the crowd though there was 2
resident one here.?Yorkvillc

Our Troops Leave Havana.
Havana, August 0.?The last
troops stationed in this city left
here tins morning for Quemados,
leaving on those garrisoning Morro
Castle, Cabanas fortress and
the outlying forts.
The I'atria says the scheme to
make model farm schools instead
of an agricultural engineering
school is excellent and adds:
"Cuba needs plenty of agriculturalists,
such as could be made
by model farmers to initiate better
means of cultivation. There
should also be a theoretical side
institution to study the production
of extracts from iruits and
vegetables."
The municipality of Havana
has asked Coventor Ludlow to
authorize the expenditure of
?500,000 per year for public
schools. *
