AROUND AND ABOUT THE VIS Nothing Effected by Meetings of Commissions. CHAIRMAN TALKS He Says Filipinos Greatly Impressed With the United States' Con stitutionColonial Policy. MANILA, May 25. The Filipino com missioner left Manila this roorniLg without a settlement being effects. They ""will report to Aguinaldo the scheme of government proposed by Scbttrman on behalf of the President. They statea before leaving that they ex pected to return. President Gonssga of the Filipino commission, previous to their departures, said: "We greatly appreciate the cour tesy extended us. We have spent some time with your commissioners incident ally considering the American constitu tion. Its principles impress us pro foundly. The plan of government offer ed for the Philippines seems in theory a good colonial system. But why should a nation with your constitution seek to make a colony of a distant people, who have been so long fighting against Spain to secure the same rights your constitution gives? You fought the ;tame battle when you fought against jtngland." THE STORY REFUTED. Messrs. Teachey and Goodwin Make a Statement Entirely Plain. Mr. Editor: We don't like to parade ourselves before the public in newspa per articles, as we strive to be honest, hura-vtoriung men and attend to our own business .md allow others the can) ; " privilege. Mr. Walter Scott hud an nd ticle in your paper a few days ago in which he spoke of two overseers ou the streets and referred so plainly to us that we feel it our duty to answer his card, and denounce the inference which he attempts to draw from our conduct on the day of election ns unqualifiedly false. No one instructed us how to vote and we -'id not instruct .my on.' ehe how to vote, except we advised some wbo talked with us to vote the Demo cratic ticket. We have takeu but little interest in city politics of any sort, as Mr. Drewry, the chairman of the street committee, has always instructed us to attend strictly to our work and look after the welfare of the titv, and let others take care of the polities. We did not work against cith v of 1 1n nom inees of the Democratic party mil no one will dnre come ta our faces ami make ouch a charge. We did go down ' into the fourth ward oa election day and remained lown thirj about fifteen or twenty minutes; while we were down In the ward an old crippled darkey about 85 years old, begged us to help him. We thought he was a worthy ob ject of charity and one of us gave him a dime and the other gave hiqi seven pen titles. . This was done in a crowd, so that ev ery one could see it. Thi? is the whole sum and substance of our offense. Wo do not like to use abusive language in a newspaper article, but if the persons who have .been circulating false reports against us will have the nicnhood t come to our faces and ask their uues tions, we hall endeavor to satisfy them.

He Will Qbey Any Unanlmoms Decision Further Trouble Expected If Kingship is Main tained. APIA, May 17. The Samoan commis sion arrived May 13th. The first meeting was held May 10th. They were engaged all the uiornirg con ferring with the chief justice in the chambers. Nothing was disclosed, but it is reported that the commission will uphold the action of Admiral Knutz. Mataafa has sent the commissioners a letter of welcome, in which he ex pressed the hope that they would satis factorily end the troubles in Samoa. It is und.irstiod that Matanfa will obey any unanimous order of the com mission. It is thought doubtful wheth er they will order his followers to dis arm unless Malietoaus are first di-aim-cd. Mntaafas will probably disperse to their homes, if ordered to do so, but will never recognize Mar.itoa ns Kin;;. Doubtless there wail be further trouble in the future if the kiui;siiip is renin tained. CA STELA It BETTER.

Closing Exercises of the Commencement This Evening. tute last evening were n brilliant suc cess. The program was uimjue and original, fun and wit and joke and mer ry song following in quid succession. The President of the class, Miss Rus sell, had charge of the prorain and af ter a few graceful words ot welcome, introduced Miss Hill, of Maxton, who gave the class history in rhyme. Miss Miller's forecast of the class was most successful. In the guise of a dream she told of the future of each member and illustrated it by poses done by the individual mentioned. The tltoclH of the tableaux in the big gp'a frame were strikingly artistic. Miss Covington as an actress in '"Lit tle Minister," was a theme for an ar tist's brush. Miss Moring, as a porter girl, Miss Hill, as a prisoner in the Tombs and Miss Proudfit, ns a beggar, called forth rounds of applause. No less enjoyable was Miss Shaw's mock seniors charge to the class of 1900. Miss White, of Chatham, Va., had a wonder ful "Dissertation on Pie," a class pie, full of plums in the shape of souvenirs. College songs were interspersed in the program. The invited guests who were so for tunate as to attend these 'jvcrcises wet.; delighted with the program and will long remember the fair graduates. The grand annual concert at Peace Institute will 'be given this evening at 8:30. To this the public is most cor dially invited. Mr. Diuwiddie asks the patrons of the school and especial friends of the young Indies taking part to come early, so that thev may secure goodsents.

About 1 o'clock last night Arthur Sanford. J. H. Stevens and W. U. Johnson, all white, were asaulted on the street near Air, Hornbttckle'e store In the second division of the third' ward Their assailant was Ruffin Holderfield He attacked hem with a larj-e gold- headed cane. Without warning, the blow descended on the head of one of the men Fortunately the cane struck the fellow's heud below the cane's head and the stick broke, the head flying off and bit ting another of the party. Holdetfleld then turned and dealt the remaining one of the three a sharp rap aimed at lli head, but landing on the shoulder. Hol derfield then saw that his caue was broken, so he took to his heels, as din the three men he assailed. Two negroes, William Nevcls and Robert Roystcr, wore Btanding near and it was supposed that they were Hoi derfield s accomplices. They ran as soon as UoMerfield struct the first blow and broke his cane. The two negroes were arraigned with Ilolderiield, but no evidenco wus devel oped sufficient to hold them. lioldcr iield'a bond was placed at S75 for his aiineiirance at the next term of the court. The object of the assault is supposed to have been robbery. Th policj think that Ho'ierfield intended to stun tno men by the blows and rifle their pockets with the assistance of the negroes. The cane broke and this frustrated the panic. THE ORPHANAGE. The Advocate on the Institution in Which Raleigh is Keenly Interested.

Attorney General's Opinion Regarded as Pearile Mr. Boushall one of the Fonr who Voted Against the Craig Bill. The discussion of the Craig bill and its effect on the State continues the chief topic of conversation. Mr. Joljn C. Drewry, State agent for fhp fntnal Rjtnnfit u-HiMi h.a Trith.. Hfflwn frnm tha Ktafa intamlu tn mnro f to Richmond, Va., and establish a State agency. His departure would indeed be a sad blow not only to Raleigh, but to the entire State. It is sincerely hoped that this Craig law may be so decided as to save our city such a deprivation. Twenty years ago the Mutual Benefit withdrew from Virginia because of hos tile legislation, but this has since been repealed and one hundred business men from lluchmond have since been to Newark and asked the company to re turn to that Stote. Now North Caro lina, it seems, has committed Virginia's folly. Mr. Drewry said last evening: I will not be in the least surprised to see all the life companies withdraw from North Carolina by June 1st. The pro moters of the Craig bill threw a brick Ht the Southern Railway, but hit other people. The result is going to be a big loss of revenue to North Carolina and a loss besides of business men and bus iness interests. The insurance com panies yield the State a revenue of $120 000 a year." It is said that the Atalntic Insurance Company, the Home Life and Prudential will also withdraw. In connection with the Craig law it is 'gratifying to recall that Mr. J. D. Boushall, Wake's valuable representa tive cast his vote against the bill. Only four voted against it. Mr. Boushall stated on the floor of the House that t was a daugerous measure and he be lieved it unconstitutional. An , effort will be made to arrange among the companies for nn agreed test case. This can be done by arranging it with the Secretary of State. One of the companies can do business one day and petition for a mandamus against the Secretary of State. This course will probably be pursued. A prominent insurance man said to day: "I believe that by paying the li cense fee under the insurance law a company is authorized to do business in the State. The insurance bill was pass ed March Gth, and contained a clause repealing all laws and clauses of laws in conflict with the provisions of said act. This clause nullified the provision of the Craig law as to insurance companies. "I claim, anyway, that the Craig bill. so far as insurance companies is con cerned, is unconstitutional. I do not be lieve that any insurance company objects to the provision preventing the removal of cases from State to Federal courts. attach absolutely no importance to Attorney General Walser's opiuion." AN OLD FOOL. Met, Wooed, Won and Married a Girl in.Two Hours. FREDERICK, Md., May 2X-John Fox, aged eighty-six years, ot Mt. Pleasant district, who married Miss Kit tie Zimmerman, aged twenty one years, has tiled a bill for absolute divorce. Mr. Fox who owns several tine farms. and who has hud many expe' enees in tn- deavoring to procure a wife, to- lay saw. This is the worst 'stew' I have ever been in. It only took me two hours to Kct the cirl to consent to become my wife, but I suppose it will take me nearly ns many years to get rid of Her. "I needed a wife to take care of my house." continued Mr. Fix, "and my housekeeper told me I could lio 1 a p'iod young woman at Mr. Cramers, in Fred erick. I came in and met tlio yoiiug woman, and ns she seemed to be all that wanted, I became engaged to her, and in less than two hours she was my wife. All I gave ber before mr.rrying nic was $130. and I promised to emploj fler friend, Anderson, on the farm. Anderson came out on the place last Tuesday to work, but Instead of doing anything he only loafed about the house, and when recovered from an ettactc of rnounia- tism Saturday I told him to leave. Soou afterward my wife informed me she was going to Hagerstown to bring her moth er, Mrs. Johanna Zimmerman, down to visit us. I followed her to trwu and found she bought two ticket, one for her friend Anderson, and that both wtnt Hagerstown, Now she can remain with him. Since I was married on Mrnday I have been beset with thieves. I killed four hogs Inst week and son'.c one stole every piece of meat, even taMng the three cans of is'd. I have lost forty chickens and many oth-jr things about the place. Things have beeome so bad that I am now afraid for my life. I know now that you can't trust the wo men these days." ARMOUR BETTER.
