Corinth, Miss., April 7.—The thirty- eighth anniversary of the battle of Shiloh, when the armies commanded by Generals Grant and Buell met the forces of Generals Albert Sidney John- ston and Beauregard, was celebrated to-day by a grand reunion of both the federal and confederate veterans on the field where they once fought. The celebration will iast two days. Governor Stephens’ suggestion that Admiral Dewey be chosen as Bryan's running mate is meeting with favorable comment of the papers and approval of democrats all over the country. If the Admiral is right on the democratic platform; and es- pecially on money, imperialism and trusts, Bryan and Dewey’ would Sweep the country like a cyclone. It would be the happiest combination that could be found. The name of Thos. L. Harper can be found in our announcement col- umns forrepresentative. Mr. Harper has long been a prominent figure in our county. He served the people one term in the county elerk’s office and made a very efficient officer. So popular was he that he received the endorsement of a renomination, but met defeat at the polls with the bal- ance of the ticket in the land slide of 1890. Hehas been identified with the growth and development of Bates county fora quarter of a century, and no man knows the needs of the farmers better than he, and those in- terests would be well looked after with Mr. Harperin the legislature.

Manila, April 9.—An topic of conversation in army circles is the investigation of Brigadier Gen- eral Frederick Funston’s execution of two Filipinos and the _ possibility ofa court-martial resulting there- from. The story is that the Filipinos captured three Maccabebe who were crossing the country near San Isidro and were preparing to kill them when one of the Maccabebes escaped and found General Fuston and a scouting party near. This man guided the Americans to! ts. Ruey Price Saturday eve; from | ment wor the rescue of his companions, when the troops approached the Filipnos| fled, leaving the Maccabebes. Sev- eral of the Filipinos were shot and General Fustons captured two of them, took them to a village and square and hung them with out a trialas a warning to the Filipinos. The present method of warfare and the instances of the mutilation of prisoners have incensed the American soldiers to such a degree that they feel justified in making reprisals, which has been done on several oc- ons recently. There is a strong feeling among the residents and friendly Filipinos that the Chinese General Pana, who. as announced March 21, surrendered to Brigadler General Kobbe, after ter- rorizing the province of Panay, should be severely punished. It is pointed out that his career has been more that of a brigand than of at soldier, as he looted and extorted money by torture from wealthy na- It is believed Pana surrendered be-| he expected to be paroled, like other ee a ns Wheeler for Second Place.
