Washington. July 1.—President Mc-

reinforcement of the Philippine army
of occupation.
It is the present intention, as told
by the president at the cabinet dis-
cussion, and after it, to organize three
brigades of volunteers in the United
States. They will be fully equipped
and officered and sent to the Philip-
pines as rapidly as possible.
This will give Gen. Otis a reinforce-
ment of 14,130 men.
In addition, he is to have the three

A new story of Henry Ward Beecher
was told at the Plymouth church pray-
er meeting by Dr. E. K. Cressey of
Brooklyn Hills, L. I.. It was a story
of Dr. Cressey’s boyhood One day his
mother left the house, cautioning him
and his brothers that they must be
very quite and not romp while she was
gone. There was a hairbrush with
whieh Mrs. Cressey was wont to pun-
ish violations of the domestic statues
when any such oceured in her well or-
dered household, and the youngsters
promised to be good and remained as
still as mice.
Presently Mr. Beecher arrived to
make a call on the Cresseys, and found
no one to receive him but demure look-
ing boys. A flash of anticipation came
into his eyes, as he joyously told his
young hosts to prepare for the romp of
their lives.
“But mamma told us we musn’t
romp,” protested the future doctor of
philosophy.
“I’ll take all the responsibility,” re-
sponded the great preacher.
When Mrs. Cressey neared the house
on her return she heard indications of
a small riot. Filled with indignation
at this unheard of rebellion in her
quiet little republic, she rushed into
the house with words of stern rebuke
trembling on her tongue. At the door
she paused, petrified.
Henry Ward Beecher was flat on his
back on the floor, with a parcel of
young Indians apparently dancing a
ghost dance on his prostrate form and
emitting shrill yells. The appearance
of the avenger instantly froze all the
rebels into silent consternation, ex-
cept the arch-insurgent. Climbing to
his feet, the unabashed clergyman
said:
“Mrs. Cressey, I promised my friends
here to take all the responsibility for
this outbreak, and”—here he reached
for the hairbrush, and presented it to
her with a Chesterfieldian bow "I am
ready to take whatever is due them.
You may begin at once.”
But for once there was an infraction

meantime numerous blows from the
other Socialists who took part in the
affray.

Visits, 1. T., July 3.—News has
reahed here that Arch Shambaugh, a
prominent farmer and stockman, who
resides some ten miles east of Grove,
I. T., committed suicide. He had
made deliberate arrangements to shoot
himself and wrote instructions in re-
gard to the final disposition of his
property and burial, and when he had
completed his last instructions re-
tired to his room and deliberately took
a pistol and blew his brains out.
In the cabinet on the question of a
larger army for Gen. Ois.
Adjt. Gen. Corbin is the strongest
opponent of an adequate army for the
Philippines. He stands practically
alone in this position among army of-
ficers, and the result of yesterday’s
meeting of the cabinet proves that the
president has finally decided that Cor-
bin’s position is wrong.
Gen. Corbin maintains that Gen.
Otis has nevr asked for more than 35.-
000 men, and until he asks for them,
no more should be sent.
This view is not approved by the
president, and the work of enlisting
of volunteers will go forward with all
haste.
Col. Thomas L. Hartrand of the sev-
enth Illinois volunteers called on the
president to proffer him the services
of a regiment for the Philippine cam-
paign.
The president explained that com-
plete organization could not be accept-
ed, as all the officers for the new vol-
unteer regiments are to be appointed
by the administration.
