I was glad lo hear from you and think it is very kind of you to remember ine for we Isiya away out here cauuot receive too many letter from home. Manila is a very pretty city situa ted on both sides of the Pasig river; ihe part on the east Is called New Manila and the part on the west, Old Manila; the latter having a high wall around it. The wall was built in 167U; it is aisiut five mile long, thirty feet thick and twenty leel high and has ten gates. As you aay, we are seeing new ami atrauge sights every day, we also are learning something new eacn day; chief ot which Is how to speak Ihe tiuauish language. It is some thing wonderful how quickly one cuu learn It when he hears nothing spoken but Hpanish. The native are mostly of the Ma lay race and from their habits, they are naturally becoming dwarfed in tiz; although small of statue they are well built, very filthy and some of them, the boys say, hav'nt sense enough to carry I hem across the street, hut in spite of all inese uraw taicks, they are liecoiuing civilized very rapidly. We landed at Fort Cavite July first and remained there until Aug. 13th. the day we took Manila. Fort Cavite was a very preity place, it is dx miles across the hay to Manna and sixteen around by land. We did not see much fighting while there ex cepting when we were doing picket duty, then we had to keep our eyes open, I can tell you and sometime we kept our guns warm for two or three hour at a time. The weather was very warm there hut the mango and banana tree gave us great shelter from the hot sun, but when under them we had to keep a sham look out for the poisonous tar antula the bitb of which will prove fata) in thirty minutes or an hour. I ne laaing Ol mumis wan quiiB n battle; we all saw sights, and hud ex ierlence we may never see or have train, at ast we hope not. 1 sup- Mise you have read all altout the bat lie before this time, so I will lust give you a few details aisiut the Oregon iMiys the nrsl to land ai ine ijaurone Island, the first in fort cavite anu the first in the old walled city of Manila. Auir. 12th at 0:110 p. in. our captain told u lo pack our knapsacks with two hundred rounds of ammunition and three days' rations, and to be ready to embark, on a boat called the Hong Kong tliumi a large sine wheeler, for Manila at 6.;it) next morning, i ou ought to have heard us yell! for the day for which we had waited so long had come at tasi. There was very little sleeping that night and at 3:tf0 Inst ail of f::0 we all were ready to go on isard but we were not srmitted until 7:;toj then we steamed up in the rear of Dewey's war vessels and at nine lie gave or ders for his boats to take their places, they steamed up to a fort called Fort Malata. Malata is a suburb of Mani la; we could see all, and it was a sad sight to see the women and children leaving the place; Dewey gave them plenty of time, then came a signal from the land forces that everything was all right. The ting ship Olym lia opened up and fired for fully ten minutes before any answer came, when a shot went over our head.-; what followed Is beyond my power to describeThe rattle of the mus ket on shore, the cheers of the Am erican charger and the awful hang ing and booming or the cannon tor Dewey had eleven war vessels and the gun were all going at once; it was a grand sight and laxted two hours; then the white Hug went up on Ihe Hpanish lort and in less time than it takes to tell it, every gun was silent and not another shot fired. It would have done any American's heart good to have heard us cheer. We then got orders to land and take possession of the city. Our boat took us to within two hundred yards of shore, then we landed from small boats. We marched up to the gov ernor generals' wlace, between ty long lines ol sorrowiui looaing Span ish soldiers; they laid down their arms as we marched between them: after we had dismissed them they were set at liberty, but not to go out ride of the wall, they were greatly surprised, as they thought we were iroing to kill them. They soon found out that they would be protected from the insurgents and would he mated as prisoners of war The women and thildrrn were the most frightened at n-; but w hen we beiran to give the little children mon ey, It did our hearts good to see them cheer up, ami we thought of our own dear out at home. We then went to the palace and pulled down the Spanish ttsg that had waved there long; many Hpanish soldiers were crying hen it was coming down. Then went up "Old Ulory," the beautiful stars and stripe while the band played the Star Hiangled llanner; never before was It played by our band like it was then. The boy then gave cheer after cheer and Manila was ours. With best regards to you anu .miss Annette and with the hos that 1 may soon come home, I remain y ur frit nil. ... , W. K. t'AKTKK. W. K.

James again kick goal and the score is 12 to 0. There wa now some bard pluylng done on both sides hut time was called before either side scored again in tho first half. The second half was almost a rep etition of the first. P. U. suit-ceded In securii.g two more touchdowns while Portland failed to score. P. A. was poor on the defensive while P.

Hostilities in the telephone war at Forest Orove are not very active this week, both companies seemingingly waiting to see what the other will do. The city council however has taken a hand in the matter for at a meeting held last Saturday night an ordinance wa passed to better protect the streets from obstructions. The new law forbids any person, company or corporation to dig holes, set posts or string wire through the city without tlrst obtaining the consent of the city council.

Al though Mr. Ball's salary as school supt. will not net him that much money he ha decided not to accept the appointment. His plans for the future are so far matured that to abandon them now would entail a loss far greater than any present in crease of wages. Montesuma Lodge No. 60, I. O. O.
