A story comes from the Philippines of an American under officer who advanced a theory which if successful was to reduce the island and its inhabitants to a perfect state of control. The officer obtained the consent of his sujxwiors to ex}x>riment with the theory and started out into the wilderness with his wife, three small children and only a corporal's guard of soldiers. “The sight of helpless women and children," he said, “will he of inestimable value in subduing the savage ladrones and the Carbaro robber for it will appeal to all that is manly in them. The experiment failed, to he sure, and not long after in answer to an urgent appeal a detachment of troops was out to re lease the crusaders from a tight difficulty. Perhaps at the time the officer did not realize that the inhabitants of this world are of a homeopathic nature. That like acts on like alone and that contrary dispositions will not harmonize. Manly actions will not appeal to barbarous jx*ople and the result of his exploit are thus explained. But this man’s ideas had weight for I they came from his soul which was irrespressible and overwhelming with a profound interest in his fellow men. Perhaps now such theories are unpractical but if the world was ]x*op|ed by such men as he | there would be no need for armies, j bloody wars, and the fatal intrigues of state which now are never at rest. C T. Ranier living on Tenth street ;is suffering from an abcess under | his arm.

The Decatur Base Ball team will go to South Whitley Friday where I they will meet the Shamrocks of • Fort Wayne. What the outcome will be cannot be said but if Decatur nuts up an errorless game like she I has before, the finish will not be so bud. The boys are fast and suffice it to sav that the team which wins ’ from them will have to hit the clean kind or it is all off. Frank Dibble the drayman was almost frantic this afternoon, and he certainy had reason to be. Frank had been unloading coal this afterI noon, and about half a ton he says, ' refused to go down the cellar way and landed in his eyes.
