SO cents Urge box at Monongahela Pharmacy 1-4 Always Found Here JUST TEN YEARS AGO THURSDAY Ten years ago yesterday the late Col. Alexander L. Hawkins' Tenth Penn sylvania volunteers chased Aguinaldo out of Malolos, the capital city of the would be dictator of the Philippines, and practically wound up their stren uous experiences on the firing line against the blood-thirsty forces of the dictator.

For weeks the Fighting Tenth, led by their gallant colonel, had been helping drive the Filipino army north from the city of Manila. It was slow work, the Tenth advancing day by day and the Fillipinos laying traps for them, but always retreating when the Americans charged. The Tenth had hopes of forcing Aguinaldo to fight at Malolos. The rank and file believed that Aggie's forces would stand their ground when their capital city) was threatened. But such was not the case.

When the Tenth advanced in battle line, 10 years ago yesterday, there was nothing doing, except for a scattered fire from the rear guard of Aguinaldo's army. The Tenth forded a small river, worked their way through a bamboo thicket and took Malolos. Aguinaldo, his cabinet, army and the insurrection had moved to the north the capital was deserted except for a few Chinese and aged and stek Fillipinos who could not be moved by the insurrectors. The Fighting Tenth was relieved from firing line duty at Malolos by the Fifty-first Iowa volunteers, who in their first fight, at Calumpit, suffered severe loss. The Tenth was moved to Cavite, where for two months it battled with fever and dysentery.

Then came the welcome news ordered back to San Francisco and "God's country." Stole Buggy at Charlerol A horse and bukgy belonging to Nick Besser, superintendent of the Acme Brewing Company, at Bentleyville, was stolen in Charleroi last night and up to this afternoon, no trace of it has bee.i secured. Mr. Besser arrived in Charleroi about 7:30 and tied the animal across the street from the Leonard livery barn. About eight-thirty a woman who lives near by claims she saw a strange man untie the horse and drive away. All efforts to locate the missing rig have been of no avail aud officers are still looking for it.

At the Ideal Theatre A good bill on at the Ideal theatre for the balance of the week, which includes, together with the illustrated song and moving pictures, which never fail to please, Dracula the Human Snake, and Paula and Reynaldo. The foreigner is one of the leading contortionists on the stage today and his difficult feats are beyond description. He keeps the audience in expectancy and thrills the onlookers throughout. Paula and Reynaldo have a musical comedy act which is well constructed, breezy and entertaining. At each performance last night they were given a hearty reception which showed their act was appreciated.

In all the show is first class and all patrons on the opening night went away well pleased. Harry Scurfield moved yesterday from one of the W. P. Warne cottages at the corner of Tenth and Chess streets to the Watson flats in Main street. This was made necessary in order that Mr.

2nd Main Sts. Bell Phone 100 Monongahela At the home of Miss Sarah Bake, in Main street, last night, the Epworth League of the Methodist Episcopal church, held one of the most enjoyable socials in its history. Guests to the number of about fifty were in attendance and made merry until a late hour. The evening was spent in anigrams. eleven tables being in use.

Together with this music, other games and social converse furnished plenty of enjoyment and as a diversion, Miss Louise Austen and George L. Bayha present a "big show." A small compartment just off the living room was turned into a show house and there was exhibited the "big gest and best on earth." The admit-sioa was two pins and none of the guests were troubled by their conscience when they cheerfully paid the admission fee and entered. Those entering were pledged to keep silent as to what they saw and when they came out were looking mysterious and wear ing a typical "Taft Smile." Af e. all had seen the it Ua.ed out that it was nothing more than a large mirror, bearing the inscription, "April Fool." At a late hour the Serving committee took charge and with a delightful luncheon the affair came to a close. How is Our Lockup? The attention of the State Board of Health may be called to the condi tion of a number of lockups over the county, unless the officials where the lockups are located take some steps to clean them up and get rid of the vermin.

Sheriff John C. Murphy baa often felt like refusing prisoners sent from some of these places, after they have spent a night or two in the lock up, as they are found to be covered with vermin. This is a matter that has to be carefully watched in a jail as large as the county jail, and it is no easy matter to keep rid of these vermin. Prison ers sent to jail under such conditions are stripped and compelled to take a thorough bath, including the cleaning out of their heads. Their clothes are burned and also the cloths of the cell that they occupy.

New clothes are given them and their cell is disinfected, and new bed clothes provided. This means considerable expense to the county. Oae river town was given notice by the sheriff either to clean up the lock up or stop sending prisoners to the eounty jail. Observer. To what river town does the above refer? What is the condition of the city jail here? Are all the rules of sanitation enforced.

The price of sugar and coffee "to the poor man" depends more upon some middleman's greed than upon the tariff schedule. Cuban malcontents should remember that the terror which goes with the idea of a revolution can be cheapened by overworking. The new town of Taft should settle at once with the parent town of Roosevelt as to "who's who" In Its policy making. Remodeled Their Factory The expansion idea has struck the Monongahela Ice Cream and as a result they have taken over the entire property of the Cook estate on Third street. Heretofore the company has had but a small portion of the building but more room was needed to make the necessary improvements which they desired and the building has been remodeled to suit their convenience.

The room which they originally occu pied has been remodeled and repainted and fitted up as an ideal ice cream parlor and confectionary store. The portion of the building on the of Chew street has been fitted up for the ice cream factory. A solid concrete floor has been put in, new machinery installed and as a result, they have one of the most modern factories outside ef Pittsburg. They are now prepared to take care of a more extensive trade and guarantee to furnish nothing but the best which is manufactured under the best sanitary conditions in the city. I .1.

VICTORY FOR THE OPERATORS Pittsburg coal operators have won out in their contention with the railroads for a more equitable freight rate to the lakes for the coming summer. Their 'rate remains the same as last year, 88 cents per ton, but West Virginia, a competi ig field, will have to accept a higher rate. A differential ot from 18 cents upward has been secured in most parts. The news of the adjustment of the long standing dispute with the lake lines of railroad reached Pittsburg yesterday afternoon and caused no little satisfaction. The representatives of the coal companies in New York, where the settlement took place, sent telephone messages to the Pittsburg offices concerning the details.

The new schedule in the lake rates, as agreed upon by the railroads, is as follows: Old Rate New Rate District. per ton. per ton. Ohio 83 .83 Pittsburg 88 .88 Fairmount i 1.00 Kanawha 97 1.06 New River 1.13 1.21 Longevity Anions Soldier. At the beginning of the year there were surviving two major generals of the volunteer service in the civil war and twenty -five brigadier generals.

The original roster in the volunteer service was 131 major generals and 549 brigadier generals. The youngest of the survivors was Maine's gallant soldier, Brigadier General Seidell Connor, who was registered as seventy years of age; the oldest. Brigadier General Joseph A. Cooper of Kansas, who had passed eighty-six. The average age was seventy-nine.

This showing, although a small one, tends to prove that the mortality among war veterans after their return to peace is not excessive. The average age of the commissioned officers of the Federal army at the close of the war, forty-four years ago, vean about thirty-four, and the generals were the men above the average. The fact that but 4 per cent survive at this late date is not remarkable. Among lower grades a greater per cent survive, and for the whole army of rank and file the survivors number about 83 per cent of the survtvors in 18G5. The average age of all survivors is sixty-nine, about.

The average age of the enlisted men enrolled during the war period was about twenty-three. At the outset the soldier is always a icked man, physically mentally, and experience in the service teaches hini to take good care of his1 health and avoid excesses. Ills come to him, as to other men, but he knows better than to neglect himself. The youngest of the noted war leaders on the regular army roster of survivors. Miles, is seventy, and the oldest, Howard, turned seventy-eight last November.

We can't all go to England Just to have safe travel, but we might Import a few English railroad men to teach us new tricks. The Pittsburg Leader takes the priz i for "April Fool jokes." Its Jap-American war certainly distanced all competitors.
