The papers- all over the stale are devoting considerable space to Fililtio Shields, the Utile Filipino boy whom Will Shields brought home with him, and who is now traveling with the 51st Iowa'band in its tour of the state lie sings a Filipino song and also exhibits his Mongoose. The Bedford Free Press speaking of the band's appearance in that city says: "i -:i,.'\ One of the particularly interesting features of the entertainment was the appearance of a Filipino 'boy who was brought over by Wm. Shields. This boy is now twelve 'years old, and has been an orphan for about six year*. His only brother was slain in battle. While Mr. Shields was in the hospital Filiiuo took a special interest in nim, waited on him and he became greatly attached to the boy. A mutual interest sprang up between them, and Mr. Shields determined to bring his new found friend to America. To defeat ia strict survfeilance over him, tbe boy was smuggled through a port hole in the ship's side. Upon arriving at Saa Francisco, Mr. Shields was compelled to give bond for the boys maintenance and education before he was allowed to land him on American soil. He will look thoroughly after the boy's welfare and see that he gets a good educatior. The lad is bright and intelligent and is learning rapidly. Six months ago he did not know a word of English. Now he can speak it quite plainly, besides writing, spelling, adding, etc. In an interview wilh Mr. Shields, the Free Press learns that he is and always was opposed to the policy of the administra tion in dealing with the^ilipinos. He says that had this country treated those people the same as tbe Cubans, there would have been no war and many preeioqs lives would have been saved. He says the large majority of the bnjs fouitht Itecause they were compelled to, not because they thought it patriotic or riuhtj that tbe Filipinos are fighting for their freedopi aj)d jndppfsndence just hb imwh as our f.ireful|ipr8 did, and are entitled to it, He said (hat when q. lad be could never have been taught to believe that America could have treated any helpless and weak nation as intiu-: amne as we'are treating the Filipinos. He thinks the entire Wur wrong and inhuman, and against the principles of American independence, and thinks the warfare will be continued for years. The Creston Adverijser says: At the time of the return of the 51st Iowa an interesting storv was told of a young twelve-year-old Filipino boy who was smuggled aboard the transport SenatorWm. F. Shields, of 1-eon, a private jn lUo-Bedford. "Mr. Shields, wtyh bfe interesting protege, ivfts jn tjbie .cjty jifegday having arrived iaet Monday frojn hie frofpe in I:on. He came foeris to »ept Hub regi piental band in whitjh lie h»« »n interest and proceeded with them to Bedford Tuesday afternoon where they gave, a concert that evening. Together with his charge Mr. Shields expects to truvel with the band during the remainder of their to^r. "Mr. Shields is 0 pleasant, affable gen tleman and talked ept^rtafningly with •au Advertiser reporter of this yoijng na tive for whom he seepis to cherish quite an affection- The story of their meeting is an interesting ope. ft occurred while Shields was en inmate of tbe first re serve hospital at Manila where he lay sink with the fever. The. boy was an hospital working lor lie cared for »n4 wited upCrt the soldier end seemed to take quite & fancy to him., Shield* mani festing an interest in hint, the boy evituvd desire to return with him to this country, 4PP''uatl.on ii wae made to General Otis for pejwjsgion to bring the boy home but was refuse*}, fhe same answer was given liim by Colonel f^oper Shields was determined ao smuggled the little fellow aboard the transport, where he lay in biding tor two days under a bunk covered over with a rub ber poncho. His desire to remain con cealed was so great that be djd not even venture to put his bead out froip under the ponco during the two (lays and was nearly exhausted when taken out. Mr. Shields has given tbe boy his name and he is now known as Filimo Shields, lie says he is first going to give him an ed ucation and then probably ftt him for some profession. As yet he has not been sent to school, but through Mr. Shield's tutelage is now able to count to one hundred, repeat tbe alphabet, write his own name and speak some English He understands English very well and seems to be a yery bright little fellow. The sey.er.e leather of this country as compared \vjt£i the mild climate of his native iai)^ parses huo to sutler quite a little from the ppl.d. carrying of thick, heavy clothes #1.80 paakes him very tired. Si* months lie wore scarcely no clothing, could nej the/£ peak nor understand English and knew ot nothing beyond the confines of his own community." Blsmark's iron Nerv*. j,.
