FILIPINO ACTORS TO LAND.

They Will Portray Scenes and Incl
dents of Life In the Philippines.
Mr.. Powderly, the commissioner gen.
eral Of immigration at Washington,
with the approval of the secretary Of
the treasury, has issued instructions to
the officials of his service at San Fran
cisco to land the company of Filipino
actors, who have been detained there
some weeks.
In the course of his letter Mr.. Pow
derby says that the persons who have a
contract with the Filipinos and who
were instrumental in bringing them to
the United States assert that it was
their intention "to procure the services
of natives of the Philippine islands
who would be fair types Of the people
of that race. That in addition they
should be competent to illustrate the
domestic life, habits and customs Of
their oountrymen. and that they should
be actors of such recognized ability as
to enable them to faithfully portray, as
actors, the scenes and incidents of life

the Filipinos, and, further, to illus
trate the games and festivals which
form part of their domestic life, and
that under no circumstances would
they be allowed to perform any service
in competition with American labor.
Continuing, Mr.. Powderly says:
"The testimony given in this case goes
to show that the appellants are actors
and that their performance was wit
messed by one who testified to that fact
It is true that they follow other occu
pations.
Mr.. Powde7ly has secured a pledge
from the persons bringing the company
over that they will execute new con-
tract with the Filipinos, which will
provide that they shall not become
public charge.

story of the Waltx King and some-

"This Strauss Jubilee said New
York impresario to New York Sun
reporter, "reminds me of an incident
of the visit Of the late great composer
to Boston at the time Of the Gilmore
jubilee. At that time Johann was In
the full blaze Of his glory, and the
Blue Danube waltzes were as well
known in the United States as Yankee
Doodle, and 60 when the composer was
found to be handsome, dapper little
man with lovely eyes and mass of
wavy black hair that was almost as ex-
travagantly long as Paderewski's, the
Boston musical women went wild over
him. He was courted and caressed and
feted and followed until it is wonder
his head-hair and all-was not turn
ed: But Strauss had too much good
business tact to lose control of himself,
and he accepted everything-civility
and compliment-with q smile that
was as comprehensive as it was stereo-
typed.
"Strauss was a great dog fancier at
that time, and was accompanied by q
fine black retriever. Toward the last
of the great concert days some enthusi'
astic young woman sprung the idea of
getting a lock of Strauss hair for her
locket-lockets were worn by every
body in those days, you remember. The
fashion grew into fad, and from fad
blazed up to fury, and with his COM
prehensive smile Johann promised every
applicant memento. And in due time
the locks were distribu ted-how many
hundreds of them don't know-each
one accompanied by the compliments
of the waltz king. Some statistical cuss
said that enough hair had been cut off
and distributed to make Strauss look
as though he had been sandpapered.
Yet when he left Boston for New York
his locks were as bushy and profuse as
ever. It was remarked, however, that
when Johann's beautiful black haired
dog was put into the baggage car the
poor creature looked like shorn

Thirty-nve members Of the society re-

constitution and bylaws so framed as
to bind the members under q possibly

OF course the obligation does not COM

single as long as he thinks 1t is to his

makes up his mind to be like other hu-
man beings he's got to patch up the
