Manila, March 30.—In company with
Colonel Vellla. his chief of staff, and Dr.
Barcelona, extreasurer of the Philippine
goernment Agulnaldo now occupies one
of the nicest apartment of the Malacan-
ang palace. He Is closely guarded and
courteously treated. Captain Francis J.
Kernan, of the Second Infantry Captain
William I.. Kelley of the First artillery,
members of General MacArthur' sstaff:
Captain Ben II. Randolph and Lieutenant
Gilbert A. Younger of the Third artillery
with five guards are watching him
Agulnaldo, nervously pacing the floor and
deeply thinking, thrusts his hand through
his hair. He smokes many cigars and
cigarettes, and he also has a hearty ap-
petite. He speaks only a few words of
English. He Is conscious of his dignity,
but tries to talk pleasantly with his |
guards. He often praises the skill and i
audacity of General Funston in effecting :
his capture, saying that only by strata-
gem could he have be n captured. It Is :
said that Agulnaldo Is very strongly ad- j
verse to reverting from his former

Keep Your Money at Home
The sisters of Dr. Barcelona ha-ve call-
ed upon him, bringing a plentiful supply
of linen. Agulnaldo Is well supplied
with money, and has ordered a supply
of new clothes. He Is careful of his per-
sonally appearance. lie celebrated his
82nd birthday before he was captured.
The birthday festivities were prolonged,
and only terminated upon the arrival of
General Funston. Agulnaldo tries to
read the American newspapers, and is
anxious to learn the state of public opln
NO POWER TO COLLECT TAXES.
One of the strong arguments against
the present local conditions existing
in the Indian territory is found in the
recent decisions of Judge Townsend
and Judge Gill, wherein it is decided
that the towns and cities of the Indian
territory are powerless to enforce the
collection of taxes from railroads. Re-
cently Judge Townsend, of the south-
Ion In the United States concerning Phil- dlstr|ctj rendered a decision ad
ipplne affairs He has aj ln verBe t0 the collection of such taxes,
with General Trias and the chief Justice rill nt thp
Arellano, but his future Intentions have and a few days ago Judge Gill, of
not been announced. He spends much northern district, rendered a similar

watching the boats passing up and down wa^a jn cherokee nation, restrain-

at him a while In silence, and then be-
gan to Jeer, calling Emllo and vile names
In the Tagalog language. The guards
quieted the disturbance and Agulnaldo
left the window In disgust.
Railway. Judge Gill, in rendering his
decision made this statement:

It Is the ambition of the cltiieni of
Guthrie to have thiB city the metro-
polis of the territory. To do this
every cltiien has a duty to perform
by encouraging all branches of man-
ufacturing (a city without factories
Is dead) lt does not matter how small
a factory is—it ought to be encourag-
ed by every spirited citizen, and you
can do this by pathonizing home in-
dustry ana have the pleasure of see-
ing a small factory, animated by the
community, compelled to send to
other states for more men.
Mr. I. Segal haB opened the New
York Cigar factory, employing first
class union men, manufacturing
fine grade of cigars, guaranteed to
stand the criticism of the public. Has
had thirty years experience In manu
facturlng cigars in the city of New
York and comes to Guthrie highly
recommended making the following
well known brands:
The 10 cent cigars: Uovernor
Barnes and Rebecca.
The 5 cent brands: Gun Club, Capi-
tol, Sweet Rose and Little Governor.
A few questions to be considered:
1. Do the manufacturers in other
Btates pay our taxes to build our pub-
lic institutions and increase the valu-
ation of property?
2. Are the citizens of Oklahoma
justified in encouraging Eastern Bweat
shop made cigars or any other line of
goods which could be manufactured
here?
3. By demanding home production,
will stimulate the manufacturers of
other states to come here and start
branch factories, knowing the citizens
will demand their goods.
4. This territory must be the great
manufacturing district of the South-
west and it depends on the citizens for
help by asking for home production.

Some men distrust Agulnaldo and advls.?

render vast assistance by urging
countrymen to acquiesce to American
authority. All men agree that the out-
look today Is much brighter.
At tile graduation exercised yesterday
of the Manila Nautical academy General
MacArthur In an eloquent speech com-
plimented the graduating cadets and pre-
dicted a splendid future for Philippine
commeroe. The graduates of the acad-
emy are equipped with a complete theo-
manship. Dieutenant Richard H. Town-
retical knowledge of navigation and sea-
ley of the United States navy, Is super-
intendent of the academy, having suc-
ceeded Lieutenant George F. Cooper, who
was superintendent for over a year and
d'id much to bring the academy to Its
president state of efficiency. The acad-
emy now has sixty students and will
have use of a training ship next year.
D. M. Carman, the American contract-
or charged with aiding the Filipino In-
surgents, believes that orders will be re-
ceived from Washington within a fort-
night that will result in clearing him
fro mthe charges now pending against
him.

The skin is the scat of an almost end-
less variety of diseases. They are knewu
oy various names, but arc all due to the
same cause, acid and other poisons in
the blood thai irritate and interfere with
the proper action of the skin.
To have n smooth, soft skin, free from
ill eruptions, the blood must be kept pure
and health v. The many preparations of
arseni' a:id potash and the large number
of face powders and lotions generally
used in this class of diseases cover up
for a short time, but cannot remove per-
manently tile ugly blotches and the red,
j disfiguring pimples.

of said railroad company.
"It will thus be seen from the 'Rev-
enue' chapter of Manfleld's digest, that
his' it provides a special and distinct
scheme for the taxation of railroads
within the state of Arkansas from the
taxation of other property within said
state, and inasmuch as such taxation
against railroads and railroad prop-
erty, consisting of railway track, and
rolling stock is wholly inapplicable to
conditions in Indian territory, and cam
not be enforced within the territory,
the question recurs as to whether such
town may by ordinance, provide for
the assessment and collection of tax
against railroad companies running
its corporate limits, and owning sta-
tion and section house within such
limits.
'There Is no doubt in the mind of
the court but that it was intended by
section 14 of the Curtis act, to make
railroad property within the limits of
each and every incorporated town in
the Indian territory bear its share of
the burdens of municipal government,
as It ought to do, but said law has
wholly failed to provide a method
whereby such tax against a railroad j
company can be enforced, and it is
beyond the power of this court to leg- j
islate where congress has failed in
providing for the exigenpie3.
In order for this court to hold that
municipal corporations wittiti the In-1
dian territory can tax railioads, and j
railroad property, consisting of the ;
right of way, and buildings thereon, 1
the court would have to devise some
special scheme of valuation for the
entire territory, which is clearly be-
yond its power, and therefore, the in-
junction in thiB case must be perpet-
ual."
