{ MORO ROAD BUILDERS. Warlike Natives Become Peaceful Laborers Side by Side with } : Americans. In the interior of Mindanao, in the Philippines, live .the 300,000 Moham- medans known as Moros. The name was given to them by the Spaniards, who knew Mohammedans as Moors or Moros. The Moros call themselves the People of the Lake. Into their beau- tiful country, 2,000 feet above the sea, the United States government has built two military roads. Maj. R. L. Bul- lard, one of the American officers in charge of building one of the roads, tells in the Atlantic Monthly his experiences with the Moros: “Let it be understood that our sol- diers who carried the road through the wilderness were under orders to sub- due and open the country, but without fighting. This commaud reflects honor on the methods of our government, and that the men obeyed the command un- der severe temptations and provocations reflects honor on them. Our soldiers conquered—so far as conquest has gone —1in the ways of peace, and in an al- most literal sense supplanted the sword with the plowshare. “As the road advanced the Moros at first stood by with suspicion and won- der at the Americans. - Cholera had rav- aged the Moros; the Americans were unscathed. Rains that were due, and would have stopped the progress of the road, did not fall. When a Moro brought the American warning of a secret at- tack, the American smiled, and sald: ‘Good!’ Truly, thought the Moros, these people are under a special Provi- dence. “When they understood that the American soldier-laborers were not come to plunder amd destroy, but to build, they slowly grew friends. Then began the task of putting on them the first wholesome, God-given yoke of civ- ilization—labor. Like most savages, the Moros have no tradition of work; their laborers are women, children and slaves. But mgney is eloguent, and with good money. honestly pald and reg- ularly, the Americans bribed the sav- age to labor. “The Morgs came slowly at first, do- ing half-days’ work, and asking full pay. The dattos, or petty chiefs, who divide the Moros into many little com- munities, were jealous of each other. Each with his little band of followers must be given as much werk and of the same kind as his neighbor. One dattp who had not received a contract to cut poles went out for mere show, to pre- serve his standing, and cut poles for nothing. “But soon the work showed its second moral effect; it brought the dattos into a sort of unity. Here were two lessons, honest 1abor with the hands and unity. There was a third, promptness and reg- ularity. “In the Moro tongue ‘now’ and ‘to-day’ are the same word. And the Americans found that a Moro ordered to do some: thing ‘now’ interpreted the order in good faith to mean ‘any time to-day.’ Slowly, however, contact with the Americans was telNng, and after three months the Moros wera organized Into under soldiers, and worked, like fers, regularly by bugle-call. “The importance of the datto was waning. He who came not to work for the Americans lost prestige. Finally more than 3,000 Moros worked side by side with the Americans. They had be. come peaceful laborers, and opened the i . way to their own civilization.” SANITATION IN PHILIPPINES ‘1deal Spet Which Promises to Be- * soma the Greateat Sanitarium in the World. The science of sanitation has settled the question as to the practicability of successful colonization of tropical coun- tries by the white races, ays the Chi- tago Record-Herald. It has converted the pest-holes of the world into health resorts and has finally demonstrated that it has not been the heat of the tropics that formed the seeming barrier to the white races, but rather the dis- ease producing organisms and, insects that find in the tropics ideal conditions for growth. Sanitary science has con- verted pestilential Havana into a pleas- ant southern city, with a comparatively low death rate. Soap, carbolicacid, vac- cine virus, fire and mosquito netting bave reduced the death rate in Manila, and they continue to ameliorate the con- gitions of life in all parts of the trop- ks. But, having conquered the dis- ease producing organisms of the tropics, the white man must have near at hand a haven of retreat from the moist heat ang depressing climate in order to carry for ward the work. Those who.escape the Infectious diseases of the blood and of the gastrointestinal tract will finally [eld to ‘the, ailment. commonly called tropical anemia,” unless they can thange to the more bracing regions in the mountains, - An ideal spat of this character was found by the United States Philippine commission at Baguio in the mountains of Benguet, and here is be- Ing developed what many believe will be the greatest sanitarium in the world. The transition from the deadly heat of the tropics to the bracing atmosphere ot Baguio, 176. miles from Manila, is one of the most remarkable experiences that await the traveler in the Philippines.

Bvery Form of Munition of War, from Rifles to Heavy Artillery, Made by Natives, A correspondent of the Lahore Civil and ‘Military Gazette visited one of the Chinese arsenals and thus put down his Impressions: “Finally we were taken, among other places, to the great Chi- nese arsenal some way beyond treaty limits, where every form of munition of war, from rifles to 45-ton guns, was be- ing made. We wandered through a wilderness of factories, covering acres of ground, and were shown the whole grocees of manufacture. And there were powder factories and other insti- tutions not far away which we had no time to visit. That was, perhaps, the most significant experience of all. You nay have seen gun factories before, but have you seen a place turning out great guns by the dozen, and machine g' ns by the hundred, perfect in design and construction, run, from coclie to head mandarin, entirely by Chinese, and with only a couple of Engiishmen en- gaged solely in consultative supervision? Have you seen a roomful of Chinese draughtsmen and designers in pigtails aud blue gowns solemnly, stolidly and assiduously getting out the drawings for a new gun? 1t is a sight that furnishes food for thought. And as you leave you ask yourself the question: ‘If these men can make guns, why may they not work them some day!’ "” KOREAN CHARACTERISTICS. People of the Hermit Kingdom Re- semble the Chinese of the Bix- teenth Century. The Koreans are more like the Chi- nese than the Japanese, and they used to hate both the Japs and the Rus- slans with equal cordiality, reserving whatever affection they possessed for } outsiders for the Chinese. In size they are much like these continental neigh- bors, and in appearance I imagine they greatly resemble the Chinaman of the sixteenth" century; in Sther words, the Celestial as he was before the Manchu invasion. Previous to this change in dynasty the Chinese did not wear pig- tails. They shaved the top of their heads and drew the hair from each side up so- that it covered the bald portion, tying it in a knot on top. The Manchus, however, were a tribe of pig- tails, and they forced the people they had conquered to adopt the same cus tom. Korea being out of the beaten path for conquest escaped the edict, and its people still adhere to the old customs. In fact, for many centuries the waves of invasion from the. north have passed them by, and they have, and do, ask only to be let alone and to be allowed to run their own affairs Their motto is, “Korea for the Ko reans.” Over che Deep, Blue Sea. Rivery maritime corner of the world has its deeply-rooted notions as to the best fashion in which to shape and spread its sails to the favoring breeze, writes Frank H. Taylor, in Four-Track News. Half the charm of far-away lands is found in the barbaric craft which enrich the foregrounds. In the United States, where the Cape Cad “bankers” and Baltimore clippers were created and from which the “America” went over the ocean to humble the yachtsmen o! Britain, the science of yachting seems to have reached the highest point. At any rate the cup is still with us. Our way of getting over wore water in less time than anybody else by favor of Boreas is apparently the best way. Centers of European Population. London and Manchester are still dis- puting as to which is the greater Eu- ropean center of population. Most peo- ple would suppose that London ownge the title beyond peradventure. Even if one draws a circle with a radius ot 30 miles about Charing Cross station one gets a population of more than 6,000,000, as against 5,500,000 within a #imilar distance from the Manchester exchange. But protracting a circle with a 40-mile radius one gets a great- er Manchester that shows a population of more than 8,000,000, as against a greater London of only about 7,000, 000. Apes of Married ouples, A curious correlation between the ages of husband and wife appears to have been established in the course of the recent Investigation of the in. heritance of physical qualities by Prof Karl Pearson. Prof. Pearson's results, published in Biometrika, may be briefly summarized: “These data have shown that there 1s a very definite correlation between the degrees of longevity of hus- band and wife. Things take place as uf men destined to live to old age, marry women of similar vitality, while short. lived men generally marry short-lived women, There bas been an unconscious selection from the point of view of gen eral vitality. This follows clearly from the study of the age of decease of a great number of couples, taken from grave- yard inscriptions.” The influence .af grief upon the longevity of the surviving partner Is not taken into account.
