Destroyed by Mohammedans.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 7.-Advices from
the PHILIPPINE islands state that on Feb. Is
party of MOhammedan fanatics attacked
a mission house at Zamontaco, on the ISL
and Mindano, set fire to the mission house
as well as the dwelling house of the priests,
the old church, new church in process Of
erection, and the store houses, the whole
being burned to ashes. The loss is esti-
mated at SIS, 900. A Spanish force was
sent to chastise them, when twelve were
killed and several wounded, the loss on the
Spanish side being one captain of infantry
and four men wounded, and one man killed.
Three days previous the same band burned
the village of Armadeo and a naval coal
depot. The losses were very great.

was opened at Monroe yesterday In the
Circuit Court room by DR.. Edward E.
Shieb, Principal of the State Normal
School at Natchitoches, assisted by
Profs. William Waterbury of Iowa, j..
T. Corlew and A. Reed of New York,
and Miss Nettie Rousseau of the State
Normal School.
There were present about one hun-
dred persons, including, perhaps,
twenty or twenty-five teachers. The
entire faculty addressed the audience
on their respective subjects as set forth
in the published programme, making
an impression that they are masters of
the situation.
H.. u,'.Elt "a,
Pr0f. Waterbury opened with very
interesting talk on physiology, con.
fining himself principally to the syss
tenn Of circuIatory organs and the sys.
tenn of nerves, showing in very lucid
way how the blood circulates through
the body, following it from the left
heart to the arteries and on to the
capillaries, distributing its life giving
properties obtained from the digestive
and respiratory systems, thence back
to the right heart, and on through the
lesser circulation to the lungs for puri.
fication-how the carbon of the blood
combines with the oxygen Of the air
inhaled, producing carbonic acid gas
and thereby developing the heat in the
human body, and how this animal
heat is actually burning up every
nerve, muscle, and organ Of the body
like burning candle, and how these
parts destroyed are perpetually renew
ed by keeping the digestive system
supplied with wholesome food-send.
ing the blood back to the heart again
prepared for another eventful voyage
over the human system. 1t is remark
able with what rapidity he passed
from one part OF his discourse to
another and all the time making every
thing so plain that even the dullest
minds might easily comprehend.
He was followed by Miss Rou sseau,
who is perfect embodyment of grace,
dignity and simplicity. She read an
excellent and well prepared paper on
the Interesting subject of Primary
Education. 1t was read in an easy
flowing, graceful style and was well
received by the people.
Next came Prof. Alonzo Reed, In
structor in English in the Brooklyn
Collegiate and Polytechnic Institute.
He addressed the audience in few
brief, but forcible remarks, on the SUBJ
ject of English grammar, stating that
it is not so much the study of books
and methods that makes grammarians,
but the study Of the subject under con-
sideration itself, applying 10 the solu-
ton of vexed and disputed questions
the rules and laws of nature, as the
SureSt way OF conducting ourselves
from darkness into the true light of
knowledge
(He is the author of SPLENDID series
of spoilers and English grammars,
which are now very generally regards
ed the best works of the kind in print).
Prof. Corlew followed with a spirit
ed and we'll timed discourse on that
delightful and ever entertaining sub.
ject Geography. 1t was marvel
GUS with what skill and adroitness he
handled his.subject. He made a good
impression and a larger audience is
predicted for him tomorrow.

1t was generally thought that the cave
dwellers were an extinct race, but French
tourist in Sicily has found a village i'll
Sicily, not far from Syracuse, where these
primitive abodes are still i'll use. In "a deep
narrow valley, called the Val d'Ispica, the
travellers attention is diverted from a pure
limpid stream, meandering amid flowers
meads and vines, to the steep, rocky sides
of the hills, which are perforated afar up
with doors and windows, and these still
form the dwelling places of the inhabitants.
On examination 1t is found that these grot-
toes, dug from the living stone, are incon-
testably the first abode of the aborigines OF
Sicily. Their forms denote period long
anterior TO the Pelasgian constructions,
since one does not see anywhere Indications
Of the first notions of the art of building,
not even the least idea of regular design,
either circular or square.
The writer found oftentimes that these
primitive and secure dwellings consisted of
ten or twelve rooms, disposed in three ir-
regular stories. Access to the entrance was
by wide steps, which in the most ancient
times did not exist but there was in their
stead n ladder which could be drawn up
after their own had entered, and the
cavedweller thus be secure as in
the strongest .re's The Frenchman sue
ceeded in winning the confidence of some of
these people and enjoyed the warmest hos
pitality. He says: Never have | found
goat milk so good, and the honey of the
Val dlspica yields in nothing to that of
ancient Lydia, which towers above us at
only three miles distance" This honey is
due to the abundance of flowers and of arc
matte vines which clothe the rocks OF this
verdant valley, that might have served as
the scene Of the adventures of Rasselas -

BEN: rERLEY pooRE's HOME.

But the old Dutch style stone houses, with
high gables, influenced all tho early building
One of the most notable of these old style
American houses is the residence of Mai Benz
Perley Poore. Maj. Poore is SO well known
as Washington newspaper man and author
that it will surprise many to know that he
has country home at all. That he has, and
one of the quaintest, solidest old houses in
the country, too. 1t is at Indian Hill, Mass.
Maj. PORES fad" rs the English would call
it, is farming, Il strange fancy for newspaper
man. But the veteran major is fortunate
journalist. He is able to throw away some
of the money he earns III writing in keeping
up model farm.
There are stone houses, built in somewhat
the style of Maj. PORES, only smaller and
single rooted, scattered about New Jersey
and New York state that are not less than
$50 years old. That ancient iron-like stone
which abounds in those parts is as rigid and
unchanSing as Dutch customs and New Eng
land Puritanism More so, indeed, far more.
kniclerbockcr ways long since gave place to
the American spirit of go ahead, and New
England Puritanism is only the shadow of
itself But the old houses IN which Puritans
sang psalms through their noses and Dutch
men smoked their pipes and drank beer re-
main.
Very comfortable We're the old colonial
houses. One strange thing impresses the
deliver into the architecture of those DAYS.
Even the most primitive structures, those
built III the pioneer days of the Atlantic
division of states, are infinitely more comfort
able and durable than the pioneer houses now
put up i'll the prairie states. The latter are
rickety and pasteboardlike, like everything
else i'll this makeshift age. The fact does not
indicate improvement in the American
character.

Some of the most beautiful of the lately
built American country houses in the eastern
states have returned somewhat to the old
colonial pattern in construction. In the pict-
ure we have hall and stairway from the
residence of Samuel Gray Ward, of Lenox,
Mass All this region in the neighborhood
of the Berkshire hills, is picturesque, and
men and means and taste have been not slow
to avail themselves of its advantages in build
ing sites. Some of the most beautiful rural
mansions in America are in this neighbor
hood.
1t is rather a noteworthy fact that while
the finest homes in England are hidden away
in the heart of the country, the most splendid
and attractive homes of America are, without
exception, in the suburbs of the large cities.
They are not exactly city or country houses,
but half and half, as if our rich Americans
had not yet quite made up their minds
whether they liked the city or country best.
That is just the case. The generation Of
wealthy Americans Immediately past chung to
the city and detested country life. Now the
tide of evolution is setting towards the coun-
try. 1t is a mark of improvement in taste.

SOME AMERICAN HOMES.
SPECIMENS OF OLD AND NEW SUB
URBAN ARCHITECTURE.

Can There BE Such a Thing as an
American Architecture? - Long, Low,
Irregular Mansions Fashionable for
tho Country Now-Colonial Houses.
Many people with high art notions are fond
of talking about american architecture"
III don't believe there amt no SIGH pusson,n
says Mrs. Prig. There can be no such thing
as an American architecture In Louisiana
and Alabama a house should DO low and
broad, with halls as wide as a room, and a
large rooted veranda all about it, to make it
as cool and shaded as possible. In Minnesota
a dwelling will want to be just as compact
and tight built as it can be made, for warmth
The walls should DO of triple thickness, the
windows and door castings doubly lined and
joined with the utmost care. Even then the
needle-like frost points of Manitoba blizzard
penetrate them and lie in curdling little heaps
upon the floor about the base boards. What
knshp can there be between houses in which
the first object is to keep heat out and those
where the chief end of building is to keep it
in. As has been remarked once or twice be-
fore, this is big country

strip along the sea was inhabited, there was
