Funston's Plea to Americans In a characteristic talk to the mem- bers and invited guests of the Lotos Chrb of New York, General Funston on Saturday evening gave counsel to which all 'men in this cou-ntny, what- ever their official or social station may be, should give heed. After re- lating some of his experiences in the Philippines and dwelling upon .tihe for- bearance, the patience and the charity shown by the American army toward he rebellious natives, he proceeded to denounce the men in the United States vho r by thir speeches and writings are kepmg the spirit of insurrection alive in the archipelago. Then he said: \Think wthat you please about tihe justice or the propriety of taking the Philippines and of holding them; think as you please, but for heaven's sake keep your month shut until we get this war settled and the sovereifin- of the United States settled, and then get together in this countiry and pull halir and fight it out among your- selves.\ In these few words General Funston stated tfhe gist of the plea that has .been made by every loyal American, from' the late 'President iMcKinley down, who ever expressed his senti- ments relative to the trouible in the Philippines.So long as armed foes are opposing themselves to tihe men whom this government has sent to enforce not the time to h had Auxil- iary. The report of the nominating committee >was then presented by the Hon. C H. Moore, the following; gen- tlemen being nominated for re-elec- tion: Hon. Alfred Guiibord, Prof. ! H. H- ' Southwick, Mr. E. C. Everest, Mr. W. J W. Oonaughty 'and Mr. W. A. Ftull'ler. It was moved and carried that the general secretary cast one ballot for their election, which • ; done. Yearly reports olf the several com- mittees of the association were then read by the chairman, followed by the reports of the Woman's Auxiliary and the general secretary. President Wheeler, in a few well- chosen words, then introduced the speaker of the evening, Mr. A- Page Smith, of Albany, who gave a most earnest and forceful address, the mlain thought being, \Keep First Things First,\ or, in other words, keep the re- ligious work of the association to the front. His talk -was Listened to at- tentively, and no doulbt made a lasting impression on his hearers. Secretary A. E. fMunns, of the White- hall association, was then called upon for a few remarks, and responded in a pleasing manner. Hon. C H. Moore proposed a vote of thanks to the speakers,which was un- animously carried. M>r. E. C. Everest then suggested a rising vote olf thanks to the todies for providing the good things for the inneir man. All arose. Mrs. D. F. Barker, Mrs. S. S. Whiit- telsey, Mrs. W. C.

POST EXCHANGE. - Siew Store Opened at Flattsburgli Barracks. Sergeant John L. StooMale, of Co. F, 23d Infantry, has opened what is known as the Post Exchange in Bar- racks -No, 4 at the Garrison. Here the soldiers can purchase anything from a shoe string to a locomotive.

Every Prospect for a Good Team in That City This Season. The St. Albans Messenger says the prospects for a base ball team in that city are very encouraging. Arthur Daley, who ig organizing tihe team, has received a large number of heavy sub- scriptions, and seems to think that there is no Question of the ultimate success of the project. It is intended that the team shall unite with the Northern New York League. The past success of St. Albans base ball teams is an incentive to the forma- tion of an equally good one in the pres- ent instanc* It may be interesting, says the Mes- senger, to many readers to know what has become of the members of the last professional team St. Albans had ; which was in 1897. Following is a list of the players: Patten, pitcher, pitched last year for Washington, D. C, in the American League. Hurley, catcher, cauight last year for Schenectady, in the New York Stlate League. Manning, third base, caught last year for Norwich. Conn., in the Connecticut State League. C. Prowse. after leaving St. Albans played with Wilkesbarre, Pa., in the Eastern Leaigue. Duffy, middle .field, played Last year with Albany, N. Y., and has signed for the coming season with the Philadel- phia team in the .National League.

Plattsfourgh is having its share of petty robberies, 'and some effort ought to be made by the authorities to locate the band of house breakers and thieves r ho have been making such invasions upon the personal property of respect- ible Plattsburgh people, who have left •fiheir property in what, under most cir- cumstances, woiufld be considered a thorouigthly secured condition. But it has (been shown without a doubt that the last two cases of housdbreaking seems ;o have been done in a spirit meant to show that nothing is s!afe from this gang, if they be the same in each ease, which they determine to break into. The first of this recent series was the robbe.ry of the lockers at the sikat- ng rink. Then several little petty lar- cenies about the village followed, and lastly we hear of the Hathaway house and the Gavanagh storeroom being en- tered. It would not be surprising if an investigation should show a connection between the perpetrators of these acts and those of the pocket-book snatch- ers. Some time during the last four days >f last week the Hathaway house on Broad street was broken into and 'erything inside scattered aibout. Loyal Smith noticed that the 'back door Was open Satiurday morning, and knew that something was wrong, as the Hlathaiwiays were spending the /winter in Washington. He entered the house and found it in a terrible condition. Mr. Smith notified C. E. M. Edwards who. together with Mr- Smith, Dr. Buck and Vasa Edwards, entered house and made a thorough ex- amination. They found everything scattered about, bureau drawers open- ed and the contents spread aibout the floor; boxes and packages opened, clos- et doors forced open and the private lapers of the late F. F. Hathaway, opened' and strewn about. Whether anything, had been taken or not is un- known, as Mrs. Hath away is not at tome. The police are investigating ;be case. Opinions as to the motive of the •obfoery vary. It was first thought by the police and some others that the burglary was the work of boys. One the geinetlemen, who made a care- ful survey of the house, and who is a 'riend of. the family, stated in his I that the thieves had a definite oibject, and that a careful search had been made for some (particular article. This theory is borne out by tihe con- dition of the house, and by the fact hat articles ol some value, as 'gold and silver 'bracelets, card cases and packet books, new gloves and other dothing were left by the siup.posed thieves. It is argued that fcuad the 'burglary ibeen one of Ordinary charac- ter that these articles would have been taken. It was .noticed that every pasteboard box in the house, firom ;hose of a very small size to the size of a shoe box, had been opened and emptied of its contents. Mrs. HaJthia- way was notified of the occurrence, and some of the family are expected- here this week. n effort had been made to enter by one of the doors in the sitting •room, as the iblinds had ibeen forced open and marks of finlgers were left 'tihere. The gentlenran. referred to above was of the ©pi'iiion that the overhauling of the contents of the house was done by day, so eom-plet<' was the operation. It is his oipinion that tihe house was entered toy night and whoever d'id the job spent the next day there. He points out the fact that the appearance of a light at night twould -have at once •awakened suspic- ion,, and also to the fact that no light had been seen there. There were only two burned matches found in the. house, and those were on floor with a lot of setalimg wax, which had been dumped from a box. The matches were probably some that had been placed with the sealing; wax- on some previous occasion. The second house breaking episode happened on Saturday night, iwhen tihe storehouse of James Gavansagh entered by the thieves- breaking a pane of glass in the window and removing >h. They then entered the. build- ing and prowled albowt it leaving with- out causing much disorder, and only ,kin'g four or five miniature barrels which are used to hold carpet tacks for the retail trade. The building must have been entered prior to 12 o'clock, as there were no tracks in the snaw about the buiMing yesterday morning. MILBURN Farm Wagons There is no item in the outfit of a farmer, more important than his +wagoBv It is used more constantly than any other imple- ment he has. It is called upon to carry heavy loads in all kinds of weather, and over good or bad roads. The prudent farmer should consider these things, and in the selection of a wagon get a good one and not be governed too much by price. All farm wagons are sold at a low price, compared to the cost of production and the best is the cheapest in the long run. To make a good wagon, two things are absolutely necessary. First, good thoroughly seasoned material. Second, the knowledge and skill to properly construct it. For twenty-five years the Milburn Wagon Co. have devoted their time and thought to these questions, and are now producing the strongest and lightest draught farm waigons made todiay. If in want of a farm wagon, you cannot afford to overlook \The Milburn.\ Prices right. Treatment good CHILDS & BYRNES Rink Building, Plattsburgh, N. Y.

(Among Ms selec- tiins which were particularly pleasing were the \(Armorer's fSbng.\ from Robin Hood, \Heart Bowed Dorwn,\ from the Bohemian Girl, and \The Hwo Grena- diers,\ the latter s'uinlg by request. 'Mr. j Stanley miade a direct hit in his first J solo, and the selections of Signer Ciaparelli and Miss Finley were well I 'chived. j The concert .profer&m was followed) by an original operetta, entitled, ' \Snow Bound,\ the rehearsal of mem- bers of ah opera company in the wait- Ing room of a New England railroad station, pending the arrival of a snow- stalied traiin.with the pri ma donna's dog and other important members of the company. Mr. Cawles, in the role of! the station agent and tawn selectman, i who sang ibass, introduced the \Armor- i er's Song\ here and scenes from \Tro- \ vatore\ wei*e sung in a very creditable' manner, .'by Mr. Stanley and Signora Ciaparelli, and a beautiful trio Iby them and Mr. Cowles, 'Miss Finlay sang a inty love ballad, and tihe program eonckided with a pleasing quartette selection. , The success of the entertainment was greatly aided by the capable efforts of tihe pianist, whiose accompaniments r ere 'beautifully dome and whose one solo <was worthy a repetition. The company was a good one, and despite, its small size, -pleased the audience; greatly. Clarke's orchestra rendered • several beautiful selections during the ervening. Mr.' McOormick, manager of the company, is well kniown here, being ta regular visitor at Cliff Haven, where feis talent as a theatrical manager is well known.
