Mr. .'Dean was once raptured Jby the
Filpinos while.' on hi.- way to deliver
a Fourth of July orationl Let-Wm tell
of his thrilling erlence in his,own
language, as recently taken OoWn by
a ..reporter,, as follows: - , j j
"On one occasion the kliers of the
garrlsr.n, at Leon, on ih4 Island of
Panay, invited1 me to spend the Fourth
of July with them ami give them
patriotic address. and I was at ! that
time In . Ho Ih'v 19 miles- away, I start-
out in company wrth three soldiers on
foot to meet th errgragement. A U
though I had traveled the roada ai good
deal alone, hitherto I had not bvn mo
tested, ait hough I had heard more or
less firing; but on this " occasion we
were provfciftd with quite a surprise.
"H wns a very mudiJy day, and-at
noon we halted, thoroughly tired. The.
Padre of the Tillage ot San Miguel
kindly "invited us to eat dinner with
him. We enjoyed the dinner very
much, but while Wft were eating word
was sent ahead to a hand of insurgents
lying up In the foothills of Sanl Mi

the trail, and warning them to gather

of this little plan; we resumed our
Journey In the afternoon jand .crosned
the first roll of foothills Into a narrow,
cup tike, valley, through which the
main road toLeon ran. 1
Surrounded by Insurgents.
We had hardly struck the Junction
of the trail in the road when a rifle
eraekd on the ridge to the. right lot ua,
and a line of fire ran along the crest
of the hills oh either side and fn d
yance, sounding very much like the ex
ploding of a tunch of gigantic firecrackers.--
As ! there wa no coverj we
felt flat on our fares, while the bull-ts

the firing bexame si heavy that one of

It looked for a, time as though I would
outdistance the enemy and escape into

boo growth, I ran to It, hoping to find
a temporary hiding place. ; . i-rat as l
pobed myself to drop .Into It t aaw
several of the enemy waitinfc for me

entirely wirrounded. I fell flat on my

PERSONAL. AND GENERAL.
Here Is something really god about
advertisers and advertising ih general,
from ArIc",,tural AdvetiMnlff of
Chicago, one of the brightest journals
in its line: ' ; ' .. j ;
I 'mippone every young trtan who
goes Into the advertising business de
termined to set out a place for himself
and make of himself Just a good -.en
advertising man as the material he has
tovwork with will produce. has v mo
merits when he Is Just a. bit doubtful
of the whole game moments when he.
doubts whether he can tote fair with
every one and make a success at the
same time. 1 Full of a college morality
stanfjard. he has an Wea ,jthat the
suar man is the exoeptidn.1 and that
all well, dressed men are-grajtteiw. lie'

ercoat and straw1 hat who lets his hair
grow long and smells musty and un
clean hit the world Is full of schem

and toy some act or word sends him
further .on to ike success thin ail the
dreamers In the" world- can fcver send
one. He' Is surprised to findl that this
man is" more, than a ..money-maker
that in fact money making ht only an
incident In hi llf. even though he ia
o busy getting things done that he has
not time to figure out long system
of phnoophy."
About this time the young! fellow', if
he is inside the pale, begin tjo get into
the spirit of - thingsnd to jsee some
thing of the motives of' the mem who
are making Coe advertising huslnesi
one of the great force of the workL
