THE PHILIPPINE NATIVES.
An English Traveler Says They Are
"An .Incomprehensible Race."
From tho New York Sun.
Judging from the accounts of nn
English traveler who has mude a care
ful study of Philippine affairs, tho na
tives of the Islands, that Is, the domes
ticated natives, are difficult people to
deal with. Before beginning his stu
dies ot the native character, he ques
tioned n parish priest who had been
living among the natives for more than
forty years. The priest declared tho
Islanders were an absolutely lnconipie
hcnslblc race, to whom no known rules
ot civilization or savagery had the
smallest application. Here Is the re
sult ot tho Englishman's personal In
vestigations: "They are absolutely unreliable: they
will serve you faithfully for twenty
years and then commit some such hor
rible crlmo as delivering over your
house and fnmlly to brigands. They
are patient, sober, and even honest
servants usually, but at any moment
they may break out nnd, Joining a
band of robbers, plllnge your house.
If vou tax them with the crime they
are not abashed, but disclaim all re
sponsibility, answering, 'Senor, my
head was hot,' which they consider
sufllclent excuse.
"They will never confess to a mis
deed voluntnrlly. They will submit to
a boating without a murmur If they
think It Is deserved, nnd bear no mal
ice; but If they consider the punish
ment unjust they will seek the first
opportunity of revenging themselves.
They never forgive nnd never forget
an Injury, but they cherish no mem
ory of kindness. Generosity they re
gard ns a weakness. If you give them
anything unsought they consider you
a fool and treat you accordingly. They
are always asking favors, though never
directly. Borrowing they think no
shame, but they never repudiate their
debts. On the other hand, they never
pay back voluntarily, and If taxed with
their dishonesty look surprised and
say: 'Senor, you never asked for It.'
"If you pay a man 20 cents for a ser
vice be will be contented; If you pay
him 30 cents he will grumble. They
have no words for 'thank you' In their
language, nor conception of what the
phrase Implies. They have no notion
of charity, never helping one another
except In the case of relatives, but
they acknowledge even the remotest
ties of relationship. If treated badlv
they make good servants and never
grumble; If treated kindly they are lost
and go to the bad. They never stick
to an occupation, but are ready to turn
their hands to anything. They nro
Jacks-of-all-trades and good at none.
They nro brave against equals If led
by superiors, but a real or fancied
superiority In the foe causes them to
abandon all hope.
"They do not know the meaning of
hospitality. They will do what you tell
them If you tell them often enough, but
they will never do nnythlng of their
own accord. They will answer ques
tions, but never volunteer Information.
They will let your horse die for want
of corn and never tell you that the
supply has given out. They are con
firmed liars and show only surprise
when found out. They are good hus
bands, though Intensely jealous; but
they do not worry about the conduct
of their daughters or even their wives
previous to marriage. Thev have no
ambition and no Ideas of order or
economy, but In the matter of cleanli
ness they are superior to all the In
habitants of the far east save the Jap-i
anese."
THE LADRONE ISLANDS.
Description nnd History of the Isl
ands Captured from Spain.
The Ladrones, which were captured
by the Charleston on her way to Ma
nila, were discovered by the Spaniards
In the llrst quarter of the sixteenth
century, says the Philadelphia Record.
The gioup lies in the South Pacific
ocean, between latitude 13 degrees and
21 degrees noith and longitude 144 de
grees and Mil degrees east, and con
sists of 15 Islands, only four of which,
the more Important being Cuam and
Rota, are Inhabited.
They were discovered by Fcrnan do
Magalhnes, better known as Magellan,
In the course of a cruise In the Pacific
ocean, in 1521. They were called by
him Las IIa3 de los Ladrones that Is
to say. Thieves' Islands because of
tho extraordinary propensity of the
natives to steal, especially every ob
ject In Iron, that they could lay their
hands on. In 1667, during the reign of
Philip IV., the Spaniards established a
tegular settlement on Guam and the
Islands, were renamed the Marianne
Islands, after Queen Maria Anna, who
sent there a number of missionaries
for tho propagation of the Christian
religion. At that time the Spaniards
not having had time to ruin them by
bad government, the Islands were In a
fairly flourishing state, and their In
habitants numbered from 40,000 to 60,
0C0 souls.
The settlers were very well received,
nnd all went well until they began to
attack the Independence of the natives.
AVhen the war was ended the natives
were practlcaly exterminated, and to
day the total population Is estimated
at something between 8,000 and 10,000.
Admiral Anson visited the Islands In
1742, nnd spoke of them In the most
glowing terms, but when Byron landed
on ono of them some years later ha
was grievously disappointed, for ho
found It deserted and overgrown with
Impenetrable shubbery. The miserable
condition of the land was at that time
attributed, and apparently with good
reason, to the incompetent and cruel
administration of tho Spaniards.
Naturally the Islands are fertile and
capable enough ot cultivation. Tho
cocoanut, the orange and tho water
melon are Indigenous to some of the
Islands, and tho Spaniards have Intro
duced the culture of the cotton plant,
sugar cane, rice, maize and so forth.
Their general aspect, however, Is
sterile and dreary, Guam being, in
deed, that only one that has a pros
perous appearance. The coast is rocky
and surrounded with coral reefs, and
there are many natural bays und
parks. The Islands are of volcanic or
igin, nnd volcanoes still exist in sev
eral of tho mountains. As to iho cli
mate, it is Intensely hot in the sum
mer months, but during others there
are cool breezes from tho sea. Fearful
hurilcanes ot tlmts ravage the coast,
especially, It la stated, at tho full and
new. moon. -
PARROT PARTS OLD PRIENDB. I
Epithets Hurled from n Window Es
trange Fitzgerald nnd Spence.
Augustus Spence and Thomas Fltz-
'gerald are veterans of the civil war,
residents of Flatbush. and until re
cently were close friends, says the New
York Times. They are now estranged
to such a dosroo .that n Police Magis
trate has been asked to Intervene, nnd
nil because of a parrot a profane and
blasphemous parrot. Mr. Spenco has
asked Magistrate Steern to Issue a sum
mons to compel Mr. Fitzgerald to ap
pear In court and explain why ho ut
tered threats against Spence.
About ft month ago, It aoears, Fitz
gerald was passing his old comrade's
house, nt 66 Grant street, when n stri
dent nnd belligerent voice addressed
him from within the portals In the
following words:
"You're a liar, Tom! You're a llarl"
' Unnblo to believe his ears, Fitzger
ald paused nnd gazed aghast at the
house. Tho reflection on his veracity
again Issued forth, In a cracked, de
fiant tone, nccompanled by still more
obnoxious language. Fitzgerald thought
he recognized the voice of Spence.
Bowed with grief at this severance of
lifelong relations, ho returned home,
nnd when Spence next met him on the
street It was to receive a glacial
stare.
The frigidity of Fitzgerald's glare In
turn annoyed Spence. He Is fitting up
a restaurant In Grant street, and one
day as he stood by the door Fitzgerald
approached, his hair bristling and his
eyes flashing defiance. As he passed
Spence Fitzgerald turned nnd yelled
In what seemed to Spence a highly per
sonal way: r
"Coffee and sinkers, two off the grid
dle, draw one, a pair of white wingp,
sunny side up!"
Spence Intends that his restaurant
shall be of the highest quality, and It
Irritated and grieved him to have false
Impressions conveyed to the listening
public of Grant street. He approached
Fitzgerald, the latter alleges, and In
timated that the vigor of ISfil hnd not
yet departed from his strong right arm.
Fitzgerald, nccordlng to Spence, an
nounced that he proposed to "cut his
heart out." Then Spence applied for
the summons.
When Fitzgerald was asked about tho
heart-cutting observation credited to
him he replied, soothingly: "He misun
derstood me. I didn't mean It In that
way. You know we both foucht In the
war, and I wanted him to understand
that by bringing up some fond recol
lections I would brenk his heart. Don't
you see?"
OUR TINY PACI1IC ISLANDS.
Some We Have Owned Since 1857
and Still Uninhaolted.
How many persons know that the
United States has possessions In the
Soiith Pacific that might be used ns
coaling stations In our campaign
against the Philippines? asks tho New
York Herald. Did you ever hear of
Baker Island, or Howland Island? It's
a thousand chances to one thnt you
never did, but they have been United
States possessions since 1857.
It hns been suggested that these tiny
Island might come In handy jut at this
tlire, pending the annexation of Ha
waii. They have never before as
sumed the slightest degree of Impor
tance, and even now tho officials of tho
war oepartment nt Washington are
not Inclined to believe that they can
be rut to a practical use, except In case
of the most dire necessity.
Ftlll thnt emergen" might possibly
a rise, and these desolate spots upon a
still more desolate sea may yet serve
a purpose heretofore undreamed of.
The exact location of Baker Island, to
be accurate. Is 'latitude 13 minutes 30
seconds north, longitude 176 degrees 29
minutes 30 seconds west. Howland
Island lies two or three miles to the
north.
Neither Island Is Inhabited, except by
sea fowl and a multitude of half
starved, vicious rats. The latter do
not hesitate to attack a human being.
At certain times of the year the
islands are visited by vessels, which
load with guano, which abounds in
great quantities. What little vegeta
tion there Is is coarse and scanty.
Baker Island has no fresh water, but
en Howland Island are several pools of
brackish water, supposed to be partial
ly freshened 'by distillation from the
sea. The anchorage Is said to bo very
unsafe. The former Island boasts a
movable wharf. It Is quite impossible
for vessels to load between November
and April.
Howland Island Is two miles long
and half a mile wide. Baker Island Is
one mile long and three-quarters of a
mile wide. Aside from the fact that
they are out of the usual sailing course,
It would seem that the island would
possesa little value as a base of war
supplies. But still there Is some satis
faction In knowing that they are there,
anct that they belong to our govern
ment. The time may come when, In
significant as they now appear, wo
may be glad of their existence.
