From the Hoys in tlie Philippine!. Mrs. Geo. P. Crowell lias received lengtliy letters from her son, telling of the capture of Manila, from which the following extracts are taken: Manila, Aug. 16, 189S. You have doubtless heard before this of Manila's surrender. The Stars and Stripes now float over the Philippines. We have taken possession in ureat shape. The insurgents wauled to enter the city after our uoi-px and the fleet had taken it, and kill all the Spanish soldiers and ' loot the town, l.ut our troops do not let them come in at all. 1 hey are allowed to (jo and come at will when not armed. Aug. 13th we of the first and .second Imitations, Oregon volunteers, turned out of our hunks at 3:30 in the morning and made ready for battle. We took 2M) rounds of ammunition and two days' rations with us, and at 7 o'clock went aboard the Kwongtoi, a side wheel steamer, and steamed out into the bay with our warships, and about 9 o'clock we headed for Manila. We were lo land right in Manila from the front, so you see we expected a hard fight unless the city should surrender before we landed. Our warships lined up in front of the south end of Manila and opened fire on their intrenchments at Malata. I saw every shot tired and it was exciting. I think the bombard ment lasted about an hour. The Amer ican troops in the trenches attacked at the same time and fought them tooth and nail, driving them back towards . the city. The Spanish soon run up a white flag, the tiring from the ships ceased, and we steamed up past the city and stoi ped off the mouth of the Pasig river, and at about 4 p.m. the governor-general surrendered. ' We landed at 5 p. rn. on the jetty at the mouth of the Pasig, and found a Span ish gunboat on lire in the stream. They had set fire to it and scuttled it ho it would sink and not fall into our hands, but our sailors went to work putting out the tire, and 1 guess she will not lie a total wreck. We were matvhed to the governor-general's pal ace, where we found thousands of arms ' and equipments piled up like cord wood, The Spanish soldiers do not seem to care much and tell us that the Americans are good. I don't let them fool me; I have heard too much of their history, We slept that first night in the governor-general's palace It is a grand palace, all marble and fine ma terial, but our company were stuck hack in the rear hallways' and had to sleep on the floor. We didn't mind that, however. The next day we were moved to our present quarters, which are the best we ever had. Only three Americans were killed in the capture of the city. We were the first to enter Manila. I was o guard yesterday and last night in an old earthquake ruin, used as a government wood yard, and while talking to a native I found out where the Spanish had stored away a gooil many thousand dollars' worth ol stores 25.000 beds, lots of blankets, uniforms, hats, rice, and alT kinds of supplies. I reported the matter to headquarters and took the native along and had him show me the place, lien. Merritt sent a squad of men there to take the stores and keep guard over them. I am getting so I can carry on quite a conversation in Spanish. That's how I came to find out the Spanish stores. - Aug. 18th. We are now comfortably settled in our new quarters at the Plaza rie Artileria, in old Manila. 1 bought n small shell purse from a Spanish sol dier, yesterday, that he said he brought from the Suez canal. It has engraving und hand painting on it and will make a. very pretty little souvenir. I send it, along With a few other things, to you. We are in full possession of Manila and have captured hundreds of tons of all kinds of ammunition and caunon and small arms. I never saw so many handsome women as there are here We have had lots of hard work since (Miming to Manila, hut now we will have it easier, I think. There are no large horses here that I have seen, but those here are the prettiest little horses you ever saw. All the carriages have low wheels and are built to match the horses, and they have a great, many tine carriages. These small horses seem to be very strong and always go on the trot. The native police and the servants at the palace are covered with while braided cord and tassels of silver and walk around as straight as a cob. t have not had time to get acquainted with any of the ladies yet. but by the way they, smile at us boys they don't seem to be very mad at us'for whipping their men folks. This is a very old town and a large one. There are ruins and old walls everywhere that have bushes and even large trees growing out of them. A fellow needs a small haversack to carry his small change in down here. This is one of your free silver countries, I guess.. It takes a . whole scoop full of the copper money to buy anything, and then you have only paid the small price which is about half as much as at home. Aug. 21st. I am still in the best of health, and we are having it a little easier at present. We took posseasion of the Spanish treasury building the other day. I was on guard t2ere at the time the money was counted and , turned over to Major Whipple, who has been appointed treasurer. The of ficial Gazette, which, has just been started at our headquarters, says that the Oregon regiment will be stationed Jiere at headquarters inside the walled city. You see we are honored every where we go. We were the first to land at Honolulu, and would have been first at the Ladrones if the in fantry had landed, and in fact they had two companies of our regiment nearly to shore when the place sur rendered. We were the first to land in the Philippines and first to enter Ma nila, and now are picked out as the regiment to be stationed at headquar ters. We have never had to lire a shot in battle yet, and have only had one experience of much danger, and that was when we entered Manila. We were in transport steamer with Dewey's fleet during the bombardment and in lull range of the Spanish batUries. Ifj they had dared to fire they might have! nink the whole crowd of us. We en-i lercd the city as gay as ever and went 1 marching along in front of the Span ish fort, whistling "Yankee Doodle" and "Marching Through Georgia." So you see we are not much afraid of the Spanish. The Spanish papers printed here commented on the fact and seem ed to think t hat we did not fear them much. 1 will mail you a Manila paper containing Gen. Merritt's first proc lamation lo the people of the Philip pines. We get all kinds of stories here about peace and armistice and other questions, but can place no dependence in any of them. They seem to try to keep us in ignorance of the affairs with Spain. It is on account of the Spanish here, I guess. Our quarters are clean, high, light and airy. I am wearing a pair of Spanish shoes that I found ill our new quarters. They just fit me, and I am making good use of them. We can get. our mtderclnth.es washed for 2 cents and socks for 1 cent in our money. You can ride in a hack fop 30 cents "for the first hour and 12 cents for every hour over. We captured about thirty Spanish ships in the Pasig river; most of them are coasting vessels of small tonnage. -This city, especially the new part, looks just about like the pictures of the Chicago world's fair when you see it from the. hay. Nearly all the buildings are white, with gal vanized iron roofs, which also look white from a little distance. Sergeant Mercer, our first duty sergeant, carried the American flag into Manila. He is one of my best- friends and one of the tiest soldiers in the regiment. 1 was picked as one of the guards for the treasury building the day we took it. CO. English, Co.

It should be borne In mind that, although "the war's all over and all is free from harm, H the terrors and dangers of snakes seem yet far from banishment. Of course snakes bave their place in "Nature's economy" and must be respected. The sacred history proclaims all things good that God made, nod very soon introduces a snake story. Snakes are very useful iu giving us exhileratlng surprises as well as materially cutting down the census lists and preventing overproduction. I can not for the life of me see how we could dis pense with snakes any better than we could do without centipedes, tarantulas, bed bugs, tleas, uiusquitoes and a horde of other good things. Texas is blessed with a good many snakes, perhaps not loo many nor too few to preserve a healthy equilibrium, and it is but natural that there should be many and varied experiences with them. Some grow to be as large around as a stovepipe or child's body, and In extrrme cases have measured 10 to 12 feet long. The stuffed skin of a diamond rat tler 7 feet long, 4 inches diameter, caught near this place lost. May, ornaments the front show window of a dry goods merchant. Two rat tlers killed recently in another county, one had 48 rattles, the other more, but the rattles being damaged by the shot exact count could not be made. Chicken snakes are most nu merous and troublesome. One woman told me the other day that she had done no good this year raising chit kens on account of their depredations. Racers, as is their character istic elsewhere, I think, seem to be in a great hurry and don't care to be interviewed, and flash by without a friendly nod of recogni tion, or otherwise. 'Tis not so with the dry land moccasin. He stops, and apparently wants to have a chat, but the interview is generally distasteful to him. The king snake has a good reputation and sells his life dearly lu combat with the rattler, if defeated. The joint snakes are put toget her in sections so they can unbuckle at - ill if omererency or fancy prompts them to make an exhibition of their peculiar structure, ana, as they nave been, may probably be abundant yet in places, t'he hoop snake I bave never met, and I am not sure that I have lost any hoop snakes. II one comes rolling by it is best, I am told, not to attempt to stop him for an Interview, as It might make him mad, unloose his tali and strike, and if he should miss me and strike a tree the tree would wilt immediately, I am told, and it would be a pity to lose a noble tree of the forest, thus cut down, perhaps, in the prima of life, without chivalrous warning. The unicycle originated by the hoop snake, who has sole control of patent, with all rights reserved,' is the only untrammeled system of locomotion conceivable. The bicycle is but a stepping stone in this direclion to suit man's inability at present to cope with the problem. After men and women nave long bent over bicycles in strained efforts of body and soul there will be a sudden development, and th world will stand amazed beyond all former amazements to see the genus, equipped in tights, with feet in mouth, speeding over the ground a la hoop snake and. relegating to shadows all former conceptions of locomotion. 'Don't you never doubt it." When that time comes there will be no more need to say, 'fit' wishes made torses then beggars would ride." The beggar and the tramp w ill be "in It," and, rolling side by side with the millionaire, the speed attained will only be limited by the ambition and energy of the individual and his or her capacity to duplicate the hoop snake or the rubber hose. There Is an out look iu this of pernaps far greater Importance than the regeneration of the Philippines. It will be the great agency In leveling the hu man race. In the time of the great human level street cars and ordinary carriages will no longer be needed, for human hoops of all sizes, grades and colors will be the predom inating feature of locomotion in busy thor oughfares. The skill in grasping tne feet with the mouth for a start, and the dexterity shown in bounding; from the hooped condi tion to the upright, natural one, when a stop is desired, will be paralyzing until we get used to it. I have always doubted the strict accuracy of me wen-worn saying mat "it never rains but it pours," but a number of interesting snake episodes In this vicinity cause me to hug the old adage with special sympathy as I narrate some, all but one of recent occurrence, every one seeming to evince a desire of the snake to be sociable, or to get up in the world and par take of the blessings of civilization. A woman south of town found a snake in the wood box. A short distance from her a sack of selected corn iu the ear was left In the crib a few hours, tiien carried to the house to be shelled. In the bottom of the sack was found a copperhead, which they call a "rattle snake pilot" here. Two 'weeks ago a small snake crawled up and lay down to dream in one of the lock boxes at the post office. A lit tle later a groceryman put his hand in the cracker box and encountered a three-foot chicken snake. Ho was so frightened that he ueciares ne never win put. nis nana in a oox again without first looking. Over in the east part of town a lady opened tho wardrobe and ;here lay a snake apparently prepared to dis pute possession. In the south part of town, a lew weeks ago, a man entered his room to re tire, when he discovered a snake under the chair he was about to sit down on. Interest ing cases of chicken snakes about the barns and cribs are numerous and varied. One case at my nearest neighbor's lias such unique features about it that It Is well worth recital. A hen sat brooding her chicks on the ground against the planking of an out shed. A .make attacked the brood and swallowed one, the others climbing through a crack between two planks and huddled down close to the plank ing on the oilier side. After the Hrst-swaJ- lowed chick had been passed down the bodv sufficiently the snake reached through the narrow crack and swallowed another. The noise among the chicks at tlfis time brought the farmer out and showed -that the snake had unwittlnelv traimed himself bv swallow ing one chick on each side of the fence, and with the two lumps in his body, one on each side of the narrow crack, he could neither back out nor go forward, so he furnished an easy prey, as well as establishing the fact that snaaes sometimes niniie misiaues. A copper head entered another house, supposedly riu-1 ring the night, and went to sleep under the ! cook stove, and was not observed until the I family were called for breakfast, and then came the fight. It. would stem that snakes ! sometimes go it blindly, or else are prompted by curiosity or a spirit of Investigation, else r what would be the nseof a snake going into a 1 sack of salt, as one large chicken snake did at the latter named place, and surrendered his ghost in consequence? As wo have summer about ten months in the year in the sunny South, the lengthened sweetness of sweltering ' weather long drawn ont gives unlimited scope to snake life and varied surprise galore. In fact there is not n day butvhat the rattlor conies out of his den somewhere in Texas to view the scenery and take advantage of the unwary. a. T.
