Manila, Nov. 10, 5:55 p. m.?The
landing of the American troops at
San Fabian Tuesday was the most
spectacular affair of the kind since
Gen. Shaffer's disembarkation at Daiquiri.
The co-operation of the troops
and the navy was complete. The sunboats
maintained a ferritin bombardment.
for an hour, while tlie troops
ru-hed waist deep through the surf,
under a heavy but badly aimed riile
lire from tlie insurgent trendies and
charged rigid and left, pouring volley
after volley at the fleeing rebels. Forty
Filipinos were captured, mostly
non-commissioned c.fMeers. Several insurgent
dead ami live wounded we
found in a building whi'di had sniveled
considerably from the bmnbardf
input. Tin1 town was well fortified.
The sand dunes were riveted wit t
bamboo 20 feet thick wliicb afforded a
line cover.
When l he transports arrived in the
gulf they found the gunboats. Princeton,
Bennington and others waiting.
After consultation with (Jen. Wlieaton,
Commander Knox of the Princeton
and Commander Sheridan of the
Bennington, anchored two miles off
shpre Ttie gun boat- formed a line inj^de,
the Helena, ("allso and Manila
- r+ t?i >n shore. With the Hrst gun of
1 f efv je bombardment the email boats
fere tilled radidiy without confusion
iV Maj. Oronite's battalion of the
/Twenty-third infantry and ('apt.
p 'Buck's battalion of the Thirteenth ina
fantry. While the lines of boats moved
j / shoreward the gunboats poured the
I full force of their batteries into the
trenehps, soon forcing the insurgents
to flee through the burrows dug hack
of the trenches. About 200 men held
their places until the keels of the boats
granted on the shore when their Mauser
bullets commenced to sing overhead.
The battalions formed in good order.
('apt. Buck, with Pierce's and
Pat ton's companies, pursued the insurgents
on the left, into the bamboo
thickets. On the right a frail foot
bridge across the river leading to the
towns. (Jen. Wheaton. personally com

I ing the night and in the morning
1 Gen. Wheaton established his head^
quarters in a church, quartered his
men in the houses and sent the captnred
Filipinos beyond the outposts,
f with orders not to return.
The inhabitants describe all the <
roads as practically impassable and I
?ay they believe Aguinaldo has secret- (
5 ed a yacht in the River Longapo, near
1 Subig, for use in his tlight when he
finds his capture is inevitable.
Wednesday was devoted to reconnis- ]
sauces. Maj. Logan went northward <
to Santo Tornas and burned the Filipino
barracks. Capt. Buck's Thirteenth
went to San Jacinto and disposed
of small bands. Marsh's Twenty
1 third went toward Magdelen on the I
Dagupan road and bad several sharp ;
tights with small parties. They killed ,
eight men, brought in 2(1 prisoners *
and had live men wounded.
The Santo Tomas road seems to be '
the only possible means of retreat for !
a large body north from Tarlac, and i
(Sen. Wheaton commands it. The in- (
surgents of this section are going to
[ re-enforce Tarlac. The battleship Oregon
has arrived here from Hongkong. I
Capt. Ohenoweth and Lieuts. Davis, '
Vanhorne and Bradford, with two (
companies of the Seventeenth regi- ,
I ment reconnoitering tmrtheast of Ma- {
balneal, attacked and routed a battalion
of insurgents, killing 25) of them.
Three Americans were wounded.
(Jen. Wheaton reports, by the Ben- t
nington, that when the landing was t
J trade at San Fabian the insurgents ^
{encountered were H00 recruits who
i were on their way to Dagupan, where
they expec'ed the expedition to land.
They retreated to the mountains.

rescued.

D has been raining hard through- t
out the week, handieaping (Jens. T.nw- )
ton and MaeArthur. The transport is I
I the chief dillieolty. In Hie advance|a
(Jen. I.aw!on depended on tlie river to
| get his supplies. 'I he San Isiilro river
I is feil by moiintnin streams and is alternately
too shallow for navigation
! or too swift. Two and three launches
i were necessary to pull the canoes
1 moving t he supplies from San Isiilro,
i and the mule trains moving supplies
j from San Istdro over the muddy roads
made only two or three miles a day.
Three troops were on short rations
| most of the time. The only provisions
.the country yields are rice, a few
chickens and buffalo. The officers car'
ry a supply of cn"h to pay the natives
! liberally for all they take.
The highlands are cool and the
I health of the troops is good.
Cen. Young has captured another
I large share of insurgent ammunition
and munitions of war which they
| were obliged to leave in their hurried
I ret reat.
(Jen. MncArthur is bringing sup,
plies from Angeles by the use of mule
and carabo teams.
Reconnaissances along the front
have discovered f he insurgents st rnngj
ly entrenched before Hanihan, with
| several cannon and a rapid lire gun.

A Word to Young Men.
1 wish to say a few words t<
young men on the subject o
drinking. I believe the drinkinj
habit is growing every day. It ii
one of the most degrading habiti
n man can indulge in. Dear boyi
what do you expect to make o
yourselves when you start t<
drinking before you are grown
Don't you know you lower your
telves in the estimation of th<
young ladies and bring trouble t<
your dear mothers who cares foi
rou as no one else can? Don'i
you know you say and do manj
things while under the influence
jf intoxicating liquers that yoi
would not do or say for anything
? ?^ ? - i
. vim ?frp not uruiKing; yoi
may think yon will quit Rome
iime, but let me tell you, the loin
;er you put it off the harder il
Kill he to quit, for it ingrowing
you all the time. Just think
>f the mothers whoso hearts arc
iching and ready to break be
ause their sons are drunkards
Think of the girls whose heartf
ire breaking on nccount of dis
npated sweethearts. How true
he poem
"Tliut tlii' l?o.v who minds his rndtlicr
Seldom innhes a wicked man."
"You have only one mother, my hoy.
Whose heart you can tUnddcu with Joy;
Or, cause it to ache, till ready to break.
So cherish that mother, my hoy,
None an or will do what she lias done foi
you.
What hare you, for hi r, i vcr done
Why it it that hoys expect pr
nuch more of uirls than they art
honiselves? When they seek i
'ompanion they look for a gir
at stands well in society and n
ady in every respect, and tliej
hink nothing of asking a nice
refined lady, for her company the
text day after they have beer

would von think of us girls if wt
were to get in a crowd and go tc
Irinking and swearing around!
[ know what you would think
you would not speak to us 01
notice us any more than yoi
would do a dog, and you would
t>e treating us right, too. Ther
you have as much right to stay ir
i gentleman's place as a lady haf
to stay in a lady's place. Yoi
lesiro the moat refined ladies foi
your associates, and you shoulc
itrive to make yourselves worthy
>f their association. A vounj
man that will not go in the pres
nee of ladies with the fumes
liouor on his breath should h*
honored and respected. Think ol
ihe words: "No drunkard shal
enter the Kingdom of Heaven/
There are so many tilings t\> tempi
hoys, hut "yield not unto temp
tation." Nerve yourselves ngainsi
them. Have mf?re respect foi

my young friends if you couh

the same day I carried some of the

' lots of cotton in Home the same day
and after every item of expense was
