Cat Conversation.

The commonest sound Of pleasurable
emotion, the ordinary purr, has no
purpose to serve; it is an outcome of
pure satisfaction, and is thus slightly
distinguished from chirrup-the
nearest approach a cat makes to re-,
spond in utterance when it is affec-
tionately addressed. The response by
backward movement of the ears is
more frequent. The chuckle of pleas
urable excitement is used when the
cat IS quite unaware of the presence
of people, or other cats, as much as
when it is playing with person or an.
animal companion. Again, cat news
to itself when it is bored or hungry =
but if it is making direct appeal for
food, does so, unless it is painfully
hungry, with very small voice or "a
mouth silently opened Except, per-
*haps, for the chirrup of response. the
call appears to be the only real ap-
proach to language; and here it seems
possible that the cat does really listen
for response, and call again. Lon,

The war N The PHILIPPINES
The Natives Had Good Cause to Revolt Victims Of the
Rapacity Of Their Spanish Masters They Had Been
Harried by Corrupt Officials and Clergy.

The primary cause Of the rebellion
which has existed in the Philippines
since July, 1896, was the corruption
and Unsuitable greed of Spanish Off
cials, leading them to extremes of tax
alton and persecution in order to en-
rich themselves. The first cry Of the
revolutionists was 'Down with the tax
es," which soon was changed to Down
with the clergy and finally to
taxes" which soon was changed to
Down with the Spanish" The gov
ernment and ecclesiastical authorities
were joined in an unholy alliance to
wiring profit from the misery Of the ma
tives. The richer class is made up Of
foreigners, Germans, Chinese, English
men, and a few Americans, who, exact
ing a greater tribute from the native
agriculturists, pay less to the gover-
nor and the host of greedy alcaldes and
minor officials. Briefly, these were the
causes which led to insurrection, in
Cuba as we'll as the Philippines, and
which in the end will rob Spain of the
two last gems of her colonial crown.
Wherever there was disaffection it
was encouraged by republicans and
Spanish Carlists, hoping in the end to
serve themselves by weakening the
kingdom.
In the Philippines there is added to
official corruption the shocking i'm
morality Of the European clergy, be-
longing to all known monastic orders,
who encourage abuses Of governmental
authorities that they may gain inn
munity from an interference in their
nefarious business. Year by year the
taxes have been increased and have as
sumed proportions out of all reasonable
relation to the yield of rice fields and
sugar plantations. The people pro-
tested feebly against new impositions,
but as opposition to the government
Increased the rigor Of the rule grew,
and hundreds of men and women were
deported without trial to the penal col

other peninsular cities to be educated,
and return to their homes with knoWl-
edge of the freedom of speech and un-
restricted liberty Of the press in Spain
and imbued with republican or anar-
chist ideas, which encourage them to-
attempt the free expression of their
opinions. Tho result is persecution
Furthermore, a native, no matter how
prominent, is never given salaried
official positio1 all of which are mono
polized by the retainers of different
ministries. To all of the wrongs de-
scribed are to be added the notorious
corruption of the judiciary and the
brutality of the police.
The people yielded submissive1y to
accommodating Injustice for many years.

ing them the right to seize upon what
ever they may. There are many and
celebrated instances of this condition
of things, including General Weyler,
General Blanco, and General Riviera
Still more extraordinary than the apa-
thy of Spain to this legalizing of cor
ruption is the fact that the colonies
regard with terror every change Of
ministry, knowing that it means
change of governor general and anoth-
er swooping down of birds of prey,
whose ravenous appetites must be as
suaged. The hatred of colonists for
the mother country is made greater
because all minor offices in the islands,
favorites Of the new ministers, and ma
tives are never allowed to share in the
feast. Moreover, the lands of the re-
ligious orders steadily increase. The
priests and monks possess enormous
plantations from which they derive
immense revenues. The people are
made to pay dearly for sacra1nents, and
the fees exacted are much greater than
in any parish of Europe. The clergy
live in luxury, giving themselves up in
their isolation not only to every man
ner of secular indulgence but to the
most atrocious excesses, which in
Spain would drive them in disgrace
from the church.
While these functionaries enjoy free
dom from taxation, any native, man
and woman, without reference to prop
erty income or station, is compelled to
pay a fixed tax. An Indian woman
without employment and not owning
any furniture must pay 10 pesetas. A
man must pay Is pesetas. Defaulting
in this payment, he is forced to work
for fifteen days en- the roads. Every
individual whose trade does not exceed
the sale of a few betel nuts, a basket
of mangces, or bunch of bananas,
must pay an additional tax, as must
also the natives who go from the coun-

Islands. Within recent years a means
for secret meeting has been given by
the introduction of Masonic lodges,
which have increased rapidly in num-
Der and in bership. The clergy
brought to bear all Of its immense in
huence with authorities both at Madrid
and Manila for the suppression Of these:
ganizations, and so severe was the
persecution Of the Free Masons and so
great became the abuse of the arbi-.
trary power Of alcaldes to imprisonsand

And then he explained. Madeline's

''And you believed I could go fash

while we owed money that we could
not pay? Oh, Mr.. Atheling!''
Five minutes later Master Clarence
Benjamin rushed down to his mothers
boudoir.
Mamma! mammal" he howled,

whispering to Miss Joyce, and she's
crying"
But when Mrs. Benjamin reached
the scene of action the tears were all
dried up, and Madeline was smiling
and coloring radiantly.

the lady,. recognizing the wealthy land
holder. "And Maddy-''
