The Philippine Islands
Geography. People ami Pro

There are more than 200 islands
in the Philippine archipelago, but
only nine Of them are OF any con-
size, the others being lit
tie more than mere volcanic rocks.
They have popuiation Of between
1909, 600 and S,UUJ,O00 inhabitants.
I.uzon, the largest Of the Philip
pine grour, hns an area Of il,l2l
square miles, i'eing ahout as large
as Cubs, and it has a population OF
over 4 100000.
Manila, the capital Of LuzOn and
OF the whole Philippine archipela-
90. is situated at the mouth Of the
river Pasig, which empties into the
bay of Manila. Including its sub
urbs It has a population OF l75,OOo,
Of which about 5 200 are Spaniards
1900 are creOles, or Spanish OF
mixed caste. and the remainder
are mainly Tagal Malays, mesti-
zOs, Chinese and Mohammedans
from India, with a few European
foreigners.
The Philippines are the most
northerly division Of the great In
dian archipelago.
The bay OF Manila has been call
ed the finest commercial harbor in
the world. 1t is 40 miles around
it, and the water over much of IFS
inclosed area is 800 feet deep.
All the navies in the world might
anchor in the bay at the same time
and have room to spare.
After entering Manila bay YES
sci still has 2S miles TO sail TO reach
the city.

POLITICS AND THE SCHOOLS
A New Movement Among Women tt
Influence Reform

The next general meeting of the central
committee of the womans educational
movement will be held in the assembly
room of the Chamber of Commerce, Sat-
urday afternoon at 2:3O. Everybody inter-
ested in good schools, both men and women,
are invited to be present.
While this movement has been in progress
lseveral years in ST. Paul, Buffalo, Chicago
and other cities of the middle west it had
tits impetus in Los Angeles in paper read
by Charles Cassatt Davis few months ago
before the Friday Morning club, entitled
Reforms in the Board of Education and in
the City Schools
To bring about the much needed reforms
as suggested by the speaker, it is absolutely
Essential to take the schools out of poll
tics. To accomplish this ward organiza-
tons and neighborhood meetings were ad-
vised, where parents can meet with teach
ers and familiarize themselves with school
matters, and where they can also learn
by personal association, the qualifica lions
of the men in the ward who are most compe-
tent for serving on the board of education
It is hoped in this way that a wholesome
Influence can be created that will show re-
suits at the polls. 1t is hoped also that such
Changes may Dt Iildut III the new CITY cHdT-
ter as will take the schools out of the hands
of politicians.
A lively interest was awakened by the
suggestions of Mr.. Davis, which crystal
LIKED at once in this city by the formation
of central committee, of which Mrs. D. G
Stephens was elected chairman and Mrs
Mary Porter Haines secretary. Mrs
Haines afterward resigned, and Mrs. r. H
l. F. Variel was elected to fill the vacancy.
| Four meetings with the ward and precinct
representatives have been held in the par
lors Of the Nadeau hotel. and considerable
interest has been manifested by mothers ir
the movement. Meetings have been held
also in various wards and precincts with
Encouraging results. The committee has
worked quietly but persistently in the
movement, and the members now nvite

FIRE DEPARTMENT HAS BUT
ONE EXTRA HORSE
MEETING OF THE FIRE BOARD
Councilmen Under Fire on Lighting
Question-More Talk About the
Push and Pull-Salaries

The continual talk of push and pull
and Sacks that is jabbered in corridors
offices and committee rooms of the city
hall has a tendency to make the man who
knows anything about Los Angeles have
that tired feeling and to cause the man
who does not know any thing about Los
Angeles to hesitate about stopping here.
No matter what the proposition from the
digging of a sewer or the purchase of a
dollars worth of goods, on, up or down
through the list. everywhere, at every turn
and corner. is the man with the cry of
push and pull and sacks" If one-third
the money alleged to be on tap for bribery
has been paid out there should be enough
fortunate politicians and officials in and
around the city hall to make an income
tax desirable.
The meeting Of the fire commissioners
yesterday was not a love feast. Incident
ally some facts were brought out which it
is well for the people to know. If the facts

for the fire laddies this can be said, they
suffer for every horse they are compelled
to abuse.
Councilmen are just now receiving an
amount of attention from weekly period
icals and journals fully commensurate
with their deserts, great as are the latter.
1t is interesting to note the different way
in which these slight attentions affect the
city's solons. Some of them laugh, others
swear and one or two rant and proceed to
declare they will lick the editor" upon
sight. If the rule applied to bees, namely,
that they work hardest when kept stirred
up, applies to the busy councilmen, then
indeed will the present crusade bring forth
