Of all the races peopling this mun dane sphere not one has such au ex- j traordinnry spirit of imitation as that which inhabits the Philippine islands. This race of people of Malay orign, which occupies all the archipelago of the Celebas sea, lacks the esthetic j fine taste necessary for the proper j combination of colors, constructive j ability, uniformity in architectural de sigus aud the good taste which is re quired for the culture and advance- | nieut of a people. They have uo ideas of this kind of their own. and in all matters of taste do nothing more than what they see in races of the west. Anyone who has observed the Fili pinos will have noticed that they have no ideas at all in regard to the proper combination of colors in their wearing apparel, as, in spite of their dusky complexions they select in their cloth ing the colors which are least suita- j ble to them. You will see Indian girls and half breeds as brown as berries using in their dresses aud scarfs such colors as blue, green, yellow, brown and black. A woman of dusky com plexion with a dress of any of these colors presents an appearance that is hideous in the extreme. It is not un common to see dark-skinned Indian girls dressed in such bright greens that 1f they should encounter a carabao they are liable to be eaten by tliat fes tive animal on account of their similar ity to a bunch of hay. The reason why these people cut this ridiculous figure is that they see these bright colors on European wo men, and, without thinking of the ef fect which on account of their differ ent complexion such hues are liable to produce, readily adopt them and consider themselves the most elegunt of the elegant. No sooner does a new fashion arrive from Paris, Vienna or Berlin in shoes, trousers, hats, shirts or neckwear, no matter how extravagant, than the In dian aud the half-breed immediately adopt it. The American troops had been in Manila only a few days with their brown suits before the stores on the Escoltu were besieged by natives and half-breeds buying all the brown cloth obtainable, wool, cotton or silk, and in a few days they were all arrayed in suits of the same color as those worn by the army of occupation. They noticed the hats of straw or felt with a blue polka dot baud, and in a few days all the Indians and half-breeds were wearing the same kind of hats as the Americans. I believe that the Americans will liave but little trouble in introducing here their usages, customs and lan guage, as to that end the spirit of imi tation which predominates in tlie na tive race will be a powerful factor.-- Manila Freedom. Americans and Cubans. It is difficult for the average Ameri can to understand fully the nature of the irritation caused by our military occupation, says The North American Review. In the first place, it must be remembered that we are an alien race. Our methods of thought, of speech, of action are different from theirs. Brusqueness Is our characteristic, po liteness theirs. We offend theui with out suspecting it. We ride rough-shod over their prejudices, without knowing it. The officers of our army, generally speaking, in their dealings with the islanders, have adopted, as far as prac ticable, the Cnstilian form of courtesy; but this cannot be said for the men. There is a variety of our genus homo who likes nothing better than to show his contempt for a foreigner, especial ly a "Dago," and there is no question that he has largely taken advantage of his opportunities in Cuba, and is still doing so. The soldier is seen ev erywhere, in the finest hotels and res taurants. If he wishes to make him self disagreeable, all classes of peo ple are exposed to the annoyance. In sults from the soldiers are fiercely re sented by the Cubans, but they say nothing. The matter would be less se rious were such things reported to the authorities. They are not, and this is because we are the successors of the Spanish Army. The Chinese in Manila are aggres sive. Already they control much of the commerce, and. though looked down upon and buffeted about by the Span ish, yet, If left to themselves, they would soon have the quaint city of Ma nila trans formed into a typical Can ton.

These are extracts taken from the diary kept by Evelyn Adams, reader and vocalist, during her struggle to live in New York. Come to the reacue or I shall soon lose my reason. I cannot hold out much longer. The last stage of despair is up on me • • • the creeping by Inches to the end of all things. 0 God! Can the Christian world be so cruel? So cold and mercenary? • • • Bowed down with de spair • • • and yet through it all she raises her eyes to the beacon light and a smile comes to her lips. "I shall yet be an author! I shall yet suc ceed." 1 have sent them a telegram. They will hardly send a favorable answer. Yet what a grand story it is. "Don't want It." Ah, well! I expected It. "There's a basket of fruit for you." etc. Good God, and not a sou in my pocket and they are worth a million. Why didn't they slip a $lO bill into the basket. "As they help the least of these"—but in my anguish I have to smile bitterly. But I shall yet succeed. Hungry—so faint —I would not object to something nice to eat—long time since I've tasted anything good. Now, to-morrow I'll have to go and buy the paper. I wonder if I'd better eat or save a penny for it. The past forgot the future? Sweet spirit of prayer, lead me right, I pray. Keep me worthy. He doesn't like my writing; says I scrawl all over the paper. But I don't suppose he knows all authors do that. I don't know what they (the publish ers) are waiting for unless it is to get my shroud to make into rag paper to print the book on. They'll have it soon if this keeps on.

A divorce case heard in Cincinnati the other day was that of C. H. Ma gulre against Minnie Maguire. He is a telegraph operator. She Is an actress and known as Lillian Waltone. She was a singer in the musical Humpty Dump ty which was at the Walnut Street Theatre a few seasons ago. She also appeared in other productions of a mu sical character. Her husband said she was a good wife for a time. One day his employer .told him he must not al low the woman who was coming to the office to see him to do so any more. He said the woman was his wife, but his employer would not believe it, and when the fact was insisted upon he was told he would better, under such conditions, watch her. One night he . f ound her with a man named Jack Cox. ' He asked her to go home and she would not. Cox said if she was the wife of Maguire she must go home and he I would accompany them. He did so, and they all drank some beer together in Magulre's flat. After that she said, "Jack, I will go with you. Good-by, hubby," and the two left together. She refused to live with her husband again and he sued for divorce. They were married in 1892. A decree was granted. Accused of Wife-Beating. An edict has been issued by the Right Rev. Bishop Huntingdon suspending the Rev. R. Eugene Griggs, an Epis copal minister of Binghamton, N. Y., pending the investigation by an ecclesi astical court into charges of wife-beat ing and desertion made by Mrs. Griggs. Mr. Griggs has already been fined $25 in the police court for wife-beating, and was compelled to give security to support his wife for a year. Other charges effecting his moral standing will come up before the ecclesiastical court. While Chaplain J. W. Comfort, of the Indiana Reformatory at Terre Haute.

B Him' An Episode of the Kansas Bor der in Cowboy Days. A COMMON AMUSEMENT. When a Texan Demands an Apology It Must Come in Blood—Some Reck less Shooting—How a Rollicking Rough Rider Became Gloomy and Prematurely Old. Among the cowboys who were fam iliarly known in all Kansas border towns from Hunnewell west, fifteen or twenty years ago, were Johnnie Potts and Ben Franklin, riders on the "T 5" range, which stretched from the Eagle Chief to the Cimarron River. Of the two, Ben Franklin was the more pre possessing in appearance; Johnnie, more of the typical "terror." When his system was not filled with the peculiar and hair-raising beveruge sold for whisky in those border towns, Potts was reasonably peaceful, though never sociable in his disposition, but when he was loaded with what was commonly termed "Old Hell's delight" he was one of the most dangerous of his class. It was his common form of amusement when in this condition to draw his re volver and empty it into the street, apparently careless as to whether some unoffending citizens was in the road of the bullets or not. That he was pos sessed of a certain reckless, daredevil courage nobody who knew him doubt ed, and the close of his career demon strated that the estimate was correct. It was in the early part of March, 1884, that Franklin and others of the cowboys of the "T 5" range went to Caldwell to take in the town. All the riders could not be spared at once, and for that reason Johnnie Potts and others had to stay at camp. Franklin, who in cowboy circles was considered a more than ordinary big-hearted and jovial spirit, showed his sympathy for his unfortunate companions who did not have the opportunity to participate in the pastime of painting the town red, by bringing back to camp a jug of the liquor dealt out at Caldwell saloons. That night for a few hours joy was unconflned at the "T 5" ranch. Between the inspection of jack pots and the quaffing of liquor furnished by the liberal-minded Franklin, the boys felt consoled for the disappointment in not having been able to run their horses through the town of Caldwell, howling like wolves, and playfully shooting holes through the surround ing buildings. The effect of the liquor did not appear to be particularly ser ious, except in the case of the "terror" Potts. As the night wore on he drank more heavily, bet more recklessly and be came more sullen. It was nearly morning when he arose from the camp table and, staggering against the desk of the book-keeper for the cattle com pany, upset the ink and disarranged the papers. The book-keeper made some protest, which, with Johnnie Potts, was the signal for trouble. Pul ling his six-shooter, he proceeded, to kick over such furniture as there was about the camp house as a sort of pre liminary to general hostilities. The other range riders were not so full of red liquor that they did not realize that it was only a question of how many would be able to get out of range when Johnnie began to shoot. Frank lin, who was quicker to think and act than his companions, with a swift movement caught the "terror" from be hind and, throwing him to the floor, disarmed him. Johnnie raved like a madman and applied to Franklin all the epithets known to the cowboy ver nacular until he had worn himself out and sank into a drunken slumber. The next morning Ben Franklin concluded unoffending citizen was in the road State of Texas he should demand an apology from the "terror" for his con duct of the previous night. With most members of the cowboy class this re quest would have been complied with as a matter of course, but Johnnie Potts held the opinion that It was be neath the dignity of a real "terror" to apologize for anything and would not. Ben Franklin, on *he other hand, al though an unusually good natured member of the fraternity, felt that when a Texan demanded an apol gy it must come or blood. The range riders stood close to gether: there was no consultation of "seconds" or measuring off of'so many paces. There were three sharp, loud reports, the flashes and smoke of the "forty-fours" and the thing was over. Franklin was quicker by the fractii n of a second and Johnnie's pistol arm was shattered before he could pull the trigger. The ball from his revolver went wild and the second ball from Ben's gun plowed through Johnnie's vitals. Then a curious thing happened which showed the Texas chivalry of Johnnie Potts, the "terror." Franklin, filled with remorse now that the shoot ing was over, wanted to hunt up a United States deputy marshal and sur render himself into the hands of the law. but the "terror," though writhing in li! -ith agony, would not hear to it Ihe use o' doin' that. Ben?" eras, ,IP dying "terror." "Yer got me. bi.t I'd sure a got you if I'd a drawed a little quicker. 'Twon't do me no sort o' good fur you to go and stand trial, nur you either." The "terror" was buried near the lonely camp house, and the foreman of the ranch took the trouble to see that the grave was not entirely neglected. Ben Franklin went back to Texas a changed man. Instead of the rollicking rough rider he became gloomy, haggard and prematurely old, with the haunted look of a man who ever saw the pic ture of a night's debauch, a fatal duel the lonesome, unmarked grave of John nie Potts, the "terror." Tom Hayden, a negro, aged 24, was recently taken from the officers who had him undfcr arrest for the murder of Andrew Woods, a young white man, and hanged to a tree, near Fayette. Mo. The killing took place Just previ ous to the lynching and was the result of a fight over a g*\me of craps at a negro festival. Ton: Hayden was ar rested by the sheriff and was taken to Fayette, where a mob overpowered the officers. Hayden had a bad reputa tion. PR AISF. FOR FILIPINOS. Ail Interview With the Late General Lawton in Which He Saya Tley Are Fine Soldiers. In a recent number of The Congre gationalism of Boston, the Rev. Peter Mac Queen, who has been in the Phil ippines for the past year in service with the army, quotes Major General Henry W. Lawton as saying: "The Filipinos are a fine lot of sol diers. They are far better than the Indian. The latter never fight unless they have the absolute advantage. The Tagulis are what I would call a civilized race. They are good mechan ics. Imitative, they manufacture ev erything. Taking everything into con sideration, the few facilities they have, the many drawbacks, they are a very ingenious and artistic race, and taking into account the disadvantage they have to fight against in arms, equip ment and military discipline, they are the bravest men I have ever seen. "The Filipinos are not military by nature. They are rather domestic in taste and habits, peace loving and in dustrious. Nine-tenths of the people of the island will strongly favor peace, even at the expense of some of their theories, wishes and hopes. I believe that with a liberal government, such as the United States can and will estab lish, they will be a peaceable, thrifty, happy people. I believe that it was a great misfortune that we were not able to give them a chance to sample our government before hostilities opened. "Among them are many cultured people who would ornament society anywhere in the world. Ladles who have studied and traveled, men who have good education and fine brain. Take them as a class, there can as many of them read and write as the in habitants in many places in America. What we want is to stop this accursed war. It is time for diplomacy, time for mutual understandings. These men are indomitable. At Baccor bridge they waited till the Americans brought their cannon to within 35 yards of their treneheß. Such men have the right to be heard. All they want Is a little Jus tice. I established a civil government at Belinaf. with the government entire ly in the hands of the natives. It work ed to perfection. All these people need for self government is the protection of our troops till affairs have quieted down, and then they, I have no doubt, will advance as rapidly as the Japan ese, perhaps more rapidly. I am very well impressed with the Filipinos." VfTraiiaptTH and Tmals. At the meeting of the Pennsylvania State Editorial Association at Harris burg the other day there was a deliv erance from editors with a grievance on the subject of trusts. A member complained that white paper had risen 33 per cent in price within the last six months, owing to the exactions and power of the paper and pulp trusts. An other editor questioned this statement, and said he was getting his paper cheaper than ever before. But inquiry elicited the fact that he was buying from a mill not in the trust and under a contract made before the organiza tion of the trust. This was rather de cisive, as it was strong proof of the original statement of the advance in paper being due to the trusts. Finally the matter was referred to a special committee, which reported the annex ed resolutions and which were unan imously adopted by the Editorial as sociation: Resolved. By the Pennsylvania State Editorial association, that no trust should be fostered by legislation, such as tariff duties; in other words, that if trusts are honestly organized to re duce expenses, and. consequently, the cost of products, they should depend upon their own business sagacity, not upon government. Resolved, That holding this belief as to all trusts, and believing that the re cent increase in the cost of white paper and of type metal is due, in part at least, to the organization of trusts, and that it is made possible by tariff duties, we appeal to congress to repeal such tariff duties as serve to protect ths trusts in their extortionate charges. As probably two-thirds of the editors composing the state association art Republicans of the Pennsylvania pro tectionist type, these resolutions must be considered remarkably significant. They set forth a principle which should be applied to the tariff in its entirsty— to scores and hundreds of items be sides white paper. The principle is that "no trust should be fostered by tariff duties." Yet that is precisely what has been going on since the com mencement of the trust business. The most powerful trusts in the land exist today because of the fostering care of the tariff. And when some Democrat mildly suggests that they should be denied this favoritism instantly goes up the cry of "free trade" to drive peo ple away from the sound principle enunciated by the state association of editors, as if it contained the germs of the smallpox or bubonic plague. One of the most infamous trust extortion ists in the union today is the tin plate trust, and it exists because of tariff taxes under the guise of protection. There are scores just as bad. Will the Pennsylvania editors have the courage of their convictions and hold the same principle applicable to these trusts that they apply to the printing paper trust? Gentlemen of the press, your sincerity and disinterestedness are on trial. Face the music.—Pittsburg Post. There is no question as to where the farmers of the country stand on the political issues before the people. If they were left to their sober senses, uninfluenced by the demagogical pleas of the protectionist who desires others to be taxed for his benefit, the farmers of the country would range themselves naturally on the side where their in terests lie and be Democrats. Of 22,- 000 farmers who replied to certain questions submitted by the National Rural. 17,045 are in favor of leaving the Filipinos free, 19,282 favor bimetal lism, 20,561 believe in national paper money, 20,000 oppose trusts, 18,600 fa vor government control of railroads, telegraph lines, etc., 19,800 favor the parcel post system, 15,876 would like to have rural mail delivery, while 20,- 545 oppose any increase in the standing army. The farmers are, as a class, in stinctively opposed*to the principles and practices of the Republican party, but many of them have been seduced •*nto voting against their own inter ests by the false prophets of protection.
