SILVER DROPS
IN PHILIPPINES.
Ch 'ifra Develops Among Soidiei
VrLo Have Been Guarding
Water Supply lo Pre- . '
vent Pollution.
Manila, -Nov. 12. The further
decline in the price of silver ha?
forced the Government to raise the
rate ot exchange to $2.50 Mexican
for $1 gold.
The cheapening of silver has
resulted in the increasing of the
lo.-s of the Government and all
otin r holders of silver.
The instahlity of the present
currency is seriously damaging bus-Ine.-s
und the members of the Civil
Commission and representatives of
commercial interests in the islands
will unite in making a strong plea
t Congress for the; establishment
oi : non-fluctuating Philippine currency.
Lhoiera mace its appearance
yesterday among the men of a
detachment of the Fifth Infantry,
which is stationed here. Seven men
h ivc already died and a number of
others are seriously ill.
The detachment of the Fifth
Infantry in question has been placed
on guard along the Maraquina
river, whence Manila receives its
water supply, as it was deemed
necessary to protect the stream from
possible pollution. The. cholera
developed while the men were on
this duty.
It was believed that cholera had
entirety disappeared from Manila,
and its reapearance has created
feelings of apprehension.
EDUCATION.
Puck.
This is the story of a youth who
had more sense than to believe all
he read:
Now the trillionairies onis day
and generation were filinK the
popular prints with .hot r about
the unwisdom of going to college;
b';it the youth could not hear them.
In-i-ead, he spent his leisure time
learning a drop kick that laid over
ab'it everything in that line.
Modestly causing the fact to be
known, the youth received the in
vitations from all great centers of
learning.
But money talks, and when the
president of Jo Da vies County
University came and shook $500,
00u in cash and gilt-edged secur
ities under his nose the youth
matriculated at that institution.
He played faithfully in every
game and always with large sums
out on the side lines. Consequent
ly, when he graduated, he was able
to marry and go in New York so
ciety, or'enter the United States
Senate as he chose.
ART TREASURES BURNED.
