It having beeu reported to fleneral MacArthur that a body of the rebels w as In the neighborhood of (Julngua, M 'jor Bell, vith a small troop of cavalry, was or lore 1 to make a reconnolseance. He examined :he country in the vicinity of Maloios, and went almost to Qnlngua before the enemy vas discovered. The country examined by the cavalry was rough and covered with a dense growth of brush, which afforded an Ideal hiding place for the Filipino-. The Americans were on their g u ard against an ambuscade, keeping \ close watch for the rebels, who, there was reason to believe, were hiding somewhere In the jungle near Qulngua. As the troops approached the town a strong force of rebels attacked them. At the first volley from the insurgents, who were intrenched In the brush, one of the cavalrymen was wounded, and he would have fallen from his horse had It not been for two of his comrades, who, rifling on one side of him, held him in his saddle and took him to a place of safety. Two others of the troop were wounded soon after, one fatally. Tho Americans were not confused by the attack. They dismounted and, deploying as Infantry, poured a telling Are into ♦be brush, where it was known that the g re iter part of the attacking force was concealed. News of the engagement was hurried back to Maloios, and, while the Americans held their ground gallantly against a far stronger numerical force. General Hale hastened forward with relnforcem e L ts for the cavalrymen. Two battalions of the First Nebraska Regiment and six companies of the Fifty- first Iowa, with four field guns, were quickly on the scene and vigorously at tacked the enemy. The Filipinos made a strong defence, but were ultimately driven from their position. The followltig were killed: Colonel John M. Htotsenburg of the First Nebraska regi ment; Lieutenant Sisson of the same regi ment; two privates of the Nebraska regi ment; two privates of the Fourth cavalry and about forty woqnded Most of the wounded belong to the First Nebraska regi ment. The loss of the enemy, though they were forced to abandon their position, was not heavy. General Lawton has taken the field again with a column of troops consisting of the North Dakota regiment, two battal ions of the Third Infantry, the Twenty- second Infantry, two guus of Scott’s Bat tery. three troopu of the Fourth Cavalry and Gale's Squadron, equipped in light marching oruer. They were supplied with ten days’ rations. This now cam paign is expected to result in clearing out the jungle In the country north of Manila up to the foothills of the mountains on the northeast, and up to the term ination of railroad at Bulacan.

It was my pleasure to step out on :he q u a rter deck just as he came aboard, ft was partly by accident and partly by d e sign. I heard him tell the Admiral about ils complaint, and I heard the Admiral re ply: T e ll your Admiral those ships of hi* must stop when I say so. I wish to make :ho blockade of this harbor com plete.’ “The German officer replied, ‘But we fly :he flaif:*' The reply of the Admiral was USt like Dewey. Ho said: ‘Those flags :an be bought at half a d o llar a yard any where. Tell your Admiral that the slight est infraction of any rule will mean but one tiling. That will be war. It will be so ac cepted and resented immediately. If your, people are ready for war with-dhe United j states, they can have it at any tim e .’ “ I ’m free to admit that th a t almost took my b reath away. It came so suddenly. We had expected it all along, but things you have been expecting always come uuex pectedly. Even death comes that waj sometimes. “ As he left with a face about this long' —Indicating by holding his hands far apart —“ the German said to me, 'I think you* Admiral does not exactly understand.’ “ ‘Not only does he underssaud,’ I told him, 'but he means what he says, and y o u ’d setter look out.’ “ After that they didn't breathe more than four times successively withour asking per mission.’’ .OSS OF THE GENERAL WHITNEY.

The rapid-fire g uns on the train opened tho fight at 11.30 a, m. about a mile from the river, their popping alternating coutiu- uously with the boom of the 6-pounder*. The Montana regiment and the Utah ar tillery batteries at the same time entered the jungle, from which the Insurgents, whe were occupying a large, straggling vlllagi of huts, poured heavy volleys. In the course of an hour the Americans had forced a passage through the woods to the open space in front of the river, and the artillery, immediately on wheeling into tin open, began shelling tho Filipino trenche**. In the meantime Company K. Twentieth Kansas, led by Captain Bolt wood, per formed one of the most brilliant achieve ments of tho campaign. The leglmeut was being held in reserve, and Company K charged a quarter of a mile over a corn field to the bank of eld to th e bank of the rlvei bridge, where the insurgents from a were peppering tho armored train, then about two hundreds yards down tho track.

Having reached tho broken span, the small party of Americans slid down toe caisson, swam a lew yards to the shore and crawled up tho bank, the Colonel leading the way to tho trenches, revolver in hand, th e way to tho trenches, revolver in hand, while the few remaining Filipinos bolted General Hale’s troops, on the right, had the hardest fighting.

The rope was put around his nock and he was pulled up some distance, choking 'and gasping. Ho was then let down again, when ho confessed to having stolen the pocket book. A part of the money was found, and Bradley was sent to jnll to uwaij tho action of the Grand Jury for grand larceny. Snyder Escape* Indictm ent.

Ingham waived a heav ing and was held In $10,000 bull for a further hearing. Counsel for William M. Jacobs and Wili am L. Kendig, the chief Lancaster mem bers of the gang of counterfeiters has ad mitted that Jacobs has made a full confes sion of their-criminal practices, and that It shows a conspiracy of such stupendous m agnitude as to be appalling. Jacobs, who I* now in prison, and Kendig, who is under hlg ball, have announced their intention of pleading guilty when placed on trial. Chief Wilkie, of the Secret Service, has :old some details of the case, which show It to be one of the most remarkable in the history of counterfeiting. Mr. Wilkie learned that the plan was to print $ 10 ,- 900,000 in counterfeit money and to divide It among the five men, Jacobs, Kendig, Burns, Taylor and Drodell. Jacobs was the leader of the plot. Ho proceeded on the theory that every man had ids price, and his plan was to buy a receiver in tho Sub-Treasury in New York and deposit tho counterfeits with him in denom ina tions of $20, $60 and $ 100 . taking in re turn n certificate of deposit and drawing rm those, secelvlng good money In return. Bredell, who is a mechanical genius, had charge of the machinery. The counterfeiters had constructed a plant for making paper which could not bo detected from that used by the Government in printing Its money. The machinery was boxed up when captured. Tho counter feiters evidently had decided to wait until everything was ready before putting It t o gether and la working order. So extensive was the plant that in a week’s time enough paper to print t i e entire $10,000,000 could have been manufactured. The counterfeiters had already oomplett a $60 plate, known as the Everett plat itigued Jmuuds and charged with Ith H a rvey Newitt. his law part - , o a g t s o INCREASE IN FARM PRODUCTS.

THE SABBATH SCHOOL u INTERNATIONAL LESSON COMMENTS FOR APRIL 3 a [> Comforter PreuiieeA John s l v . , 13-187—Golden T e a l: Jnhw xlv., 1A—Cnm m ent Versee tS , 16—Com m e n tary on th e Dny’e Leeeon. lu this lesson we have the only one se lected from John that reveals to ue the Holy Spirit as the source of power, of holl- uess, of life, of success in the church all through the age*. Therefore we shoultl gather around it all that Jesus told HI* dis ciples. on this memorable occasion, about this great gift which He promised to give to His disciples after His death, and all other references, so far as wo can, to the work of the Holy Spirit. We should keep before our minds the fulfilment of this promise as recorded In the Acte, and watch bis actual workings in the birth wad de- v'lopm ent of the church. We should, u •)f all, study how we m ar receive this gi blessing In our own hearts and lives, an the churches to which we belong. We can understand this lesson W tter, and the great tru th here revealed, if we vividly realize the circumstances. Jesus had an nounced th a t He wa* going away, to leave them in this world. He had promised to Ills disciples that they should do even greater works than He, the Master, had done, and that He would give them what ever thev asked in Ills name, for his work and kingdom. But thev did not even know what to ask for. They ware In a world of trouble and daugew and opposition. Hko lambs surrounded by wolves. They had a mighty kingdom to found, but were Ignor ant as to Its nature and of the way to found It. and were without material, without power, without means, and without a leader. They could as easily remove m ountains or dethrone the Cmsars. Christ now comet to them with all they need. He Himself will still be their leader. The Holy Spirit will come and bring them all they heed—power over men. truth, g u id ance, s trength, inspiration, courage, and tho peace of victory. The work of the Spirit la the final and great subject of this last discourse, for It stands connected with the completion of Christ’s mission, without which his work must be a failure. “This is the very citadel of the religion of Christ.\ “ If ye love Me keep My commandments^* The revised version says, if ye love Me \ve will keep My commandments.\ This little verse I* one that professing Christians should always have before them, and Its truth should be rooted deep lu their hearts. It la a test of d leclpleehipthat many shrink from having applied to their lives, but there i i no uncertainty about Its meaning. It has well been said that no kind of d e gree of emotion can be a substitute for obedience. “And I will pray the Father and He shall give you another Comforter, that He may abide with you forever.\ Here we soe plainly taught that the Com forter is to come to those who keep the commandments. “ Even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because It seeth Him not, neither koowetb Him, but ye know Him, for He dwelleth with you, and sLall only will bo our Comforter, Ad vocate or Helper, but He will be to us ths Spirit of truth, guiding and directing us arig h t. In of “ dwelleth in y o n ,\ the revised version says “ He abldeth In you.\ “ And I will not leave you comfortless; I will come to you.\ A c to the revised version, Jesus here meant th a t He would not leave them desolate, like orphans. \Yet a little while and the world seeth Me no more; but ye see Me, because I live, ye shall live also.\ They not only saw Him,as the Sou of God then, but also afterwardu saw Him after His resurrection, and after Ills ascension saw Him with their spiritual eyes. “ At that day ye shall know that I am In My Father, aud ye In Me and I In you.\ They knew iu a sense then, but on the t'.ny of Pentecost, when they were fllled with Holy Hpirlt, they would understand us they never had before. “ He th a t hath My commandments, nn<t keepeth them , he it Is that lovetb Me, and ho that lovetli Me shall be loved by My father, and I will love him and will mani fest Myself to him.\ This reiteration of the fact that to lovt Jo*us means to keep His commandments, and if wo do so God will love us and Jesus manifest Himself to us. Remember that faith aud works go together, and while we cannot be saved by good works, If we love God we Inust show our faith by o u r works. “Judas said unto Him, not Iscariot, Lord, how Is it that Thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?\ Judas was Jude, the writer ol the epistle; It is said th a t he was the same as Lebbeus of Matt, x; 3. “ How is It” In the revised version has beeu changed to read, “ Whet lias come to pass that.\ Dr. Hovey says, \He is trying to bring his Lord's language into harmony with his own Jewish idea of the Messiah's reign.” According to this theory, all mankind would see Him as e temporal ruler. \Jesus answered and s aid unto him, If n man love Me h e will keep My words; and My fattier will love him and we will corns unto him and make our abode with him. “ He that loveth Me not keepeth not My layings; and the word which ye hear Is lotjmlne, but the Father's which sent me. “ These things ticls I have spoken ui you, being yet present with you. “ Peace, I leave with you, My peace I give unto you, not as tbs world gtvetb, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let It be afraid.\ This peace has well been sailed \ the gift of God's love.\ After conversion we have peace with God, but when we receive tb s Holy Spirit we have the love of God con stantly abiding with us, and loflaenotag our lives. We are not troubled, neither are we afraid. He keeps us In perfeat peace, b ecause our minds are staid on HUB. 1.
