Mv Ikar I'akkstb: A wo aro
homeward bound, I will commence
a letter to mail in 8eattlo. Afier
leaving 8itka we had a s!"od run to
Kcsiirrcction Hay, JOit there one
morning at 2 .'to A. M., rrnd about
S A. M., a northwest t'ale set in and
made thine hum and wa dead
ahead. Our nearest port was I'ort
Dick, a little to the south of Capo
Klizahoth, and the Captain thought
he could make it hy dark ; it wo
couldn't, would have to "heave to,"
aa ho was ijettinu; iced s hadlv
couldn't drive her into it much
longer. We ant into I'ort Dick
aliont I. M., and glad we were to
get out of tho rtfrm. It wag noth
ing more than a "hole in tho wall,
like (ie of tho Norway Fiords, hut
afforded good anchorage and shel
ter. Tho next day was iSunday, and
wo laid there all that day and left
about midnight for Kodiak. I wish
you could have seen the ship when
wo got into 1 ort Dick. It wan one
of the prettiest sights I ever saw.
Iler deck wcri! about IS in. deep
with snow, and from the smoke
stack to the how was a solid mass of
ico. We were driving into a head
sea all day, and the thermometer
waa down to r.ero. i he pilot house,
bridge, forward deck honse, fore
castle head, etc., wero six inches
thick with solid ice. When we
came to anchor tho Bailors had to
take axes and chop away the ice
and anchor rigging In-fore they
could get tho anchor swung out on
the crane. We arrived in Kodiak
Monday, Feb. 'Ji, and sailed a few
hour afterward. Another north
west gale made our acquaintance
about 5 t). m. in tho strmt of 8he-
likof, at S p. m. Tho skipper heav
ed to and laid "hovo to" all night,
and a miserable night it was. About
.s a. in. we nmdo a run for Knak Hay
just to the north of Karluk ; got in
there and came to anchor ; laid there
Tuesday and Tuesday night and
started out again Wednesday morn
ing for Cliicnie and Isuga. I he
rest of our trip was uneventful, with
the exception of snow and log.
which dctainud ns at several places.
We arrived at Dutch Harbor yes
terday morning at 'I 'M a. in., and
sailed at 3 p. m. for .Seattle. Have
had stroug headwinds, but clear.
Last night was bright and clear with
full moon. We were skirting along
in sight of the land and you could
see the two volcano on Nnnmak
Island !elching forth fire all night
long. We made l.elkfsky at 2 this
afternoon and will arrive at Nuga
about in to night. I hope wo will
have more favorable weather going
down, but I expect March will ring
us up.
Monday, March l;5. Well, alter
many trials and tribulations, we are
at last on the inside route and will
arrive in Seattlo on Friday, if
everything goes well. Since 1 last
wrote wo have had another lot ot
bad weather. Wo left Nnga March
1st with a stiff north eaeter blowing,
and by midnight it had developed
into a howling gale, and we Had to
"heave to." It waa a bitter cold
and wild night. We were "hove
to" nnder sail and about '!. in. the
wind blew the foresail into ribbons,
broko the boom in half, eairied
away the port side of the bridge
and stove in about half the pilot
house, doors and window. e
wore in the straits of Khelikoti-again
and ship wa beginning to ice np
Imdly. The ski per worked her up
under the "lee ot the mountain
in the forenoon and put all the crew
to chopping the ico away. She was
a solid mass from stem to tern, and
every piece of rope and rigging was
frozen still. I lie nm oniucr got
loth ears frozen badly and has !een
laid np sine. The storm abated
Thursday night and we had a good
run down to Oeca and Valdcs. We
got aliout 100 passengers at Valdes
returning from the so-called gold
fields. They have Lad a good deal
ot suffering in the mining camps
this winter. Scurvy set in, quite a
number died and some were frozen
to death on the glacier trying to get
back to V aide. A party of six
were frown on the glacier a few
days before onr arrival and were
buried In Valdeee last Monday, the
day we were there. We left ( eea
on tie morning of the 7th, but onr
boiler Iwgan to leak and we put
back, blew down and caulked it, and
left aain edueday morning.
Had strong lisad-winds and now
storms all day and night ; couldn't
make Yokntut by datk Thursday,
o bad to heave to for the night.
Arrived in okntat r ndav after
noon and sailed gin at 6 p. ni ;en
connttred strong head-wind and
at which delayed us akin, and
could not make Sitka entrance be
fore night Saturday, so SiS-d to hosts
to oil there all night and ran ic yes
terday morning, arriving there at 9
. tn. SalU-l a -zaiti at 1.3" p. in.
To put tfcc finiihing touches to our
bard lock, ran on the rocks io Wran
g! Narrows this morning and took
sctrt of lb ootttioi ot of tip, ha
ta iViUfig badly, bit w too'd
keep her free with the pump and
will have to go on tho dry dock
when we reach Seattle. Thev pull
ed her off the rocks when the tide
rose. Now, if this Iiaa not been a
trip filled with hardahipj and ill
luck, then I don't know the reason
why ; and if I am forgiven this time
I will never be found running up in
this country again in the winter. I
am just about ten year older than
I was when I left Seattle on J ob.
t'.th.
Thursday, March loth. We will
arrive in Seattlo to-night at It. 00,
The weather has been perfect since
we left Sitka just like summer.

Schools and School Teachers.
C. It, Mebanc, State Superintend
ent of, schools has issued the follow
ing : Tho manuscript of the public
pchool law and notes thereon were
placed in tho hands of tho printer
on March lo, but owing to law suits,
injunctions, etc , 1 have no assurance
of a definite time aa to having tho
school law published hence this
letter. The supervisor will hold his
office and discharge his official
duties until tho end of ttiu school
year, or until his successor, the
county superintendent of schools, ia
elected and qualified. The county
superintendent of schools will be
elected by tho county board of di
rectors on tho second Monday in

not do any visiting of schools since
the 7th of March liecauso thero has
not existed a county board of edu
cation since that date under whose
supervision this work must have
been done in order to bo in accord
ance with law. The new county
board of directors will allow the
county supervisor pay (or his services
rendered in public school work since
i th of March, such aa examination
of teachers, signing vouchers, etc:
such compensation aa was allowed
by law by the county boards of edu
cation. It would bo well for the
county suporvisor to meet with the
county board of educ.it ion and conn
ty boards of directors on the second
Monday in April and assict in evciy
way possible to make clear and plain
matters of record as to the public
schools and give all the information
possible, so that the school interest
and work will not be injured by
change of officers. The township
committees will sign orders cf teach

Saw Her Boy's Death.
Uridgeville, Del., March 2!'. A
variety troupe, with a biograph as a
side attraction, performed here last
night, and during the entertainment
a scene occurred which was not
down on the program.
1 mo of tho pictures shown by the
biograph was a square of Twelfth
Cavalry boys loading stores aboard
a transport at Tort Tampa. Tho
maehino faithfully portrayed their
motions, and their features were
very distinct. Suddenly a pile of
clients and boxes, which the soldiers
had piled up on the dock, over
turned, and one poor fellow waa
crushed beneath them. At this
juncture a Mrs. Woidmer, who had
arisen from her scat and was staring
with ashen face at tho screen, rank-
in her seat, sobbing piteously, "My
Will ! My poor lioy : and swooned
away. teveral ot t lie audience lan
to her assistance, and she was carried
ont in the fresh air, where she soon
revived. At firs', it was thought
that she had suddenly Ix-como in-
eano, but it was snlieequently learn
ed that her eon William, who waa
a member of the Twelfth I'nited
States Cavalry, was accidentally
killed while loading stores at Port
Tampa by leing crushed by a pile
of overturning boxes, and the heart
broken mother saw a picture of her
toy by the revolving films of the
biograph.

NEARING THE CITY OF MALOLOS.
Americans Within Three and One-
Half Miles of the Rebel Capital.
More Bloody Fighting:.
Manila, March '11. Fighting its
way through the lines of 1,001 I' ill
pinos, who huil taken their stand at
Marilao, north of I'olo, Malintaand
Meycauyan, Gen. MacArthur'g di
vision to day resumed its northward
advance on Malolos, Aguinaldo's
capital, and captured tho town of
Marilao, at the junction of two roads
that lead to Malolos The 1,000
Filipinos fell back upon their main
body of fighting men, all of whom
are gradually movicg toward Malo
los and burning their bridges and
villages as they go. Six Americans
wero killed and forty were wound
ed in the engagement. I'olo wa
also taken to day after a hard tight.
Hawthorn' battery shelled trenebe
opposite I'asay today. I'lnlucan
whs loiini to be partly burned, but
tho tiro had been confined to lower
portions, the best hoiif-ca remaining
intact. It is learned that during
festerday's terrilic battle Urig. Jen.
rving Hale was seriously wounded.
Tho American forces advanced from
Meycauvan to day, and soon dis
cerned white roofs and steeples
among tho green trees beyond the
river. The rebels had an unford-
able river in front of them, and they
poured an effective lire into our
men, but the American artillery put
a diamatic end to tho battle. When
the artillerv appeared our men cave
a great yell, and the Filipinos were
panic stricken, many of them seek
ing safety in lligbt, while a white
flag waa raised by those who wero
in tho trenches. Col. r nnston and
20 Kansas soldiers captured Kt prre
oners with. all their arms, and the
Tenth Pennsylvania regiment cap
tnrcd 40 prisoners, l'rince Joe-
wenstein was killed yesterday.
1 ho evacuation ol Malabon, north
of Manila, was a picturesque sight.
1 hoin-Hiids ot men, women and elm
then, loaded down with household
goods, some with their dearest treus
tires fighting cocks under their
arms, poured across the swamps in
tlio early morning. Ten Oregon
soUliers, while searching for two of
those killed earlier in the tight,
sneaked into the city in tho morn
ing and found the place in a condi
tion of chaos. The inhabitants, see
ng them, fled in a panic, thinking
the American forces wero in posses
sion. If the statement of 3." pris
oners capt.ircd today is true the
ma n body of the enemy has retreat
ed to Malolos.
Washington, March 27. Advices
received by tho War Department
show that the number ot casualties
in yesterday's and to day's fighting
was three officers and 2." enlisted
men killed and nine officers and !i3
enlisted men wounded. Hot fitfht
ing was going on today, with our
forces advanced as far as Marilao,
whilo the insurgents, under the com
mand of Aguinaldo, were being
driven back with great slaughter.
With tho American base advanced
to Marilao and the insurgent bae
foiced back to Malolos, the main
bodies of tho two opposing forces
are iboiint ten or twelve miles apart.
The tactics ot Aguinaldo are taking
him gradually beyond the range ot
Dewey's guns, Mahilos is about
seven miles back from iho bay, al
though there arc shallow estuaries
which would permit light-draft
boats to get within a mile or two.

The rela;ls burned the villages as
they retreated and also tore up See-!

along tho line of today's march,
showing they weie not pieptred tor

DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS WILL BE
RESUMED BETWEEN UNITED
STATES AND SPAIN AT
AN EARLY DAY.
The Duke d'Arcos, Who Married Ad
miral Dewey's Old Sweetheart,
Miss Virginia Lowry, Will
Be Spain's Minister.
A late Washington dispatch ays :
Much interest attaches liero to the
report in diplomatic circle that dip
lomatic relations lietwcen this coun
try and Spain will bo resumed at a
very early date. I ho announcement
that Spain would soon appoint her
minister i not surprising in view
of the course which she has pursued
since the beginning of hostilities last
April. Spain conduct while war
was on was strictly in accord w ith
the finest conception of civilized
iroprieties, and no act of her can
as named which is subject to con
demnation. Her course ha been
manly and bravo ami no defeated
nation has ever yielded more grace
fully or with greater dignity. It is
not surprising, therefore, that Spain
announces her intention to disregard
custom ami to send quickly to ns a
minister. The man who will prob
ably be selected i Senor Don Jose
l!runetti,ducd A ten, one o! Spain
most learned and polished public
men, whose appointment would be
particularly happy because his wifo
is an American lady.
1 he Duchess d Amos was Miss
Virginia I.owry of Washington city,
and one of the greatest belle ever
in the cosmopolitan society of the
capital. She remained single for a
long time, hesrating between two
polished and courtly suitors, (tne
was the Due d Areos, her husband,
the other being no less a person than
Admiral George Dewey then com
modore. For a long time ii was
thought that Commodore Dewey
was the favored suitor, and on one
occasion their engagement was an
nounced. Commodore Dewey was
a great favorite socially here at that
time, but ho waa necer dovoted to
but the one woman, the woman wan
afterward gave him the unite! and
to Ins rival, tho Due d Arcos, Ker
hand. It was after the announce
ment ot her engagement to the Span
iard that Commodore Dewey ap
plied for sea orders, being naturally
desirous to leave Washington. Put
for that disappointment it is possi
ble that he would not now be at the
head of the navy more honored and
sung than any other one man in tho
world of present affairs.
The Itwry mansion in Washing
ton is one of the most shitely and
beautiful residences in the city. It
is situated on the corner of Vermont
avenue and Fifteenth street. Since
the marriage of the daughter of the
house it has never lecti occupied by
any member of tho family. It i
understood that if Due d' A roof is
appointed minister, the I.owry man
sion will become tho legation of
Spain. As both the Duke end the
Duchess arc wealthy in their own
right it is expected that they will
entertain sumptuously, as a matter
of noblesse obl ge, if for no other.

Unearthed at Last.
The Kansas City Star of the 211
March prints a three column story
regarding the arrest of a remarkable
gang of Kansas criminal who have
for years lived by mean of robbery
and murder. no ot the gang n

New, who was killed in ( ireenwood
county, Kansas, two years sgo, for

I.andis, of the Kansas penitentiary.
believe in the innocence of Mr.
New nd Dobbs that he will im
mediately urge Governor Stanley to
pardon them. Frank Altgood,
alleged to he the real murderer, is
in jail at Iola, Kansas, under a
charge of forgery. . Alvin Pulliird,
serving an eight year sentence in tho
Kansas penitentiary for horse steal

and Turner were the murderers of
New and that Mrs. New and Dobbs
were absolutely innocent. Turner
ha not been found. It seems that
the very men who murdered New
and robbed his dead body conspired
afterward to convict the widow and
Dobbs. Tho supposed murderer
(Altgood,! Recording to Milliard,
even went so far aa to try to get on
the inrv which convicted them.
Milliard g cs on to say that he, Alt-
good and Turner were niem!ers of
an organized gtng of thieves and
murderer that operated in South
eastern Kani-a. As a result of his
confession, eighteen stolen horses,
a bag of counterfeit silver dollars
and a counterfeiting outfit have been
recovered. Mesidu Altgood, P. I..
Mathes, Mary Mathts and Herbert
Simpson arc under arrest. Fifty
other horses stolen by tho gang have
been located. The otliceis are on
the trail of other members of the
gang. Milliard also alleges that A It
goixl murdered Wm. Coiiltener,
near F.urtka, in ls'-'. Ulicera who
have been working on the case have
