RAMON LALA'0 IDEA
OF EILIPIN00 rs CITIZENS

| frain from bloodshed in times of great
| provocation that l would base the right
| of my countrymen to citizenship. I
claim that we have shown for genera
| tions-ever since the Spanish occupa-
ton, and even long before-the capa-
city. to govern ourselves, for the most
of the gobernadocillos or governors Of
| townships, and many of the provincial
| governors, have been native Filipinos.
AS the township. under an American
regime, would also be the unit of gov
eminent, it follows that the same adj
ministrative talents that have made the
Filipino communities models of domes-
tic peace hitherto will keep them the
same.
Aguinaldo, though Young for such a
position, has surely shown remarkable
ability, and would, I believe, always
handle himself with discretion. Agon-
clio is another man who has shown an
uncommon talent for affairs-while
Cayetano S. Arellano, the eminent Ma
Mia jurist. is in my mind as capable as
any American whom it has yet been my
fortune to meet. This man is pro-
found lawyer. and Is of untarnished
reputation He is widely Travelled and
conversant with the history of other
countries as we'll as with every detail
of the life of his own. He should be
put at the head of the Supreme Court
of the islands, if the United States de-
eide to assume the task of governing
them. for no other man so we'll knows
the intricate Spanish laws, the customs
and the character of the people.
l have merely made mention of these
names to prove that few of us at
least are ready for even the duties Of
American citizenship-high as these are
and I do not underrate them when I
say this. Indeed, we can show not
few others who would rank on the same
intellectual plane with the gentlemen
mentioned above-and there is no rea-
son why. in the course of a genera
ton, there should not be thousands
where now there are scores It will
cause some surprise when I state that
no subject possesses greater interest to
the Filipino mind than civics and law.
There are to-day already more than
1000 Filipinos who are full-f1edged law
yers-graduates of the University Of
Manila. and some of them of the best
schools in Europe. The average native
also is much interested in the affairs
of his village, and there is usually as
much desire among them to hold pub

speculation and business and by the
gayety of social life.

and fifty thousand gulden. affairs be-
gan to be carried on on a more luXur-
ious scale. The plate was of craven
gold, the furnishings were most sumpt-
uous, the rare dinners that became an
established bi-weekly custom earned
for the knight the sobriquet of the Aus
trian Lucullus. Chance putting it in
his way, the domain of Kaltenbrunn,
near VoesIau, was added to his estates
by the power of his secretly manufac-
tured currency.
AS was before mentioned the chew
alier had foreborne to use his aristo-
cratic title of Ritter or knight and had
even clipped the noble won" from his
name owing, of course, to the obscurity
into which he was cast by his few years
of poverty. Ignorant of this fact, how
ever. his many friends impaired to
Boor their opinions as to the proba-
bility of the Emperor comforting a pa
tent Of nobility on him. Thinking the
time opportune for a resumption of his
titles Ritter procured his papers from

n III RS. MARY BAKER G.. EDDY,
~ N the founder of Christian Sci
NF ence, has been reading some
of the many recent attacks on
that school, anent the death
of Harold Frederic, and has come out
in a letter in it's defense Mrs. Eddy
refers at the beginning of her letter
to an article that appeared in the New
York Times. Harold Frederic was, it
will be remembered, the London CORE
spondent Of the Times, and that paper
has been foremost in the recent attack
upon the Christian Scientists. The edi-
torial to which Mrs. Eddy specifically
replies, contains such passages as,
| why is it not possible to suppress
these murderous fanatics in this coun-
try?" and, why are they not ar
rested?"
The words which call out Mrs.
Eddys reply occurred in the following
paragraph:
"Why not enforce the law against
these homicidal charlatans who prac-
tise their hocus-pocus on patients sick
with typhoid fever, heart disease and
consumption? They kill, and, so far,
kill unpublished. Not one of them could
pass the regents examination. 1t
would catch them all, and they would
be delivered over to the law If they
practiced and took fees without a
license. The experience of Massachu-
sets shows that it may be difficult to
draft statute that viii net these pests.
Common sense shows that new legisla-
ton is not needed. Existing law will
protect the ignorant from their deadly
impostures if it be enforced"
Here, in part, is Mrs. Eddy's reply:
I'm a New York paper an article was
published November %, 1898, in which
Christian Scientists were called pests.
That epithet points a moral. Jewish
pagans thought the learned st. Paul.

saint, was a pestilent fellow but to-

Prince Won Rosenberg Orsini. All doors,
even those of the imperial Hofburg,

Shortly subsequent to this important
event Doors father-in-law died, leaving
in the hands of the fortunate Chevalier
the castles of Rossegg, Teutendorf and
RosenbaCh and the palatial villa Oh
Rosenburg at Klagenfurt. Filled with
an inordinate pride for beautiful estates
the knight consumed one-half million
Of gulden in embellishing these newly
acquired possessions. The man whom
fortune so greatly petted had now
reached the zenith of success.
At about this date he published his
opinions as to the value of savings
banks and he drew up the plans for
the first institution of it's kind that
Austria had ever seen. He himself
was appointed curator. Thus while
he safe guarded the money of his
a fellow men he manufactured i'm

some exceedingly valuable suggestions

Anarchistie Humor.

A recent despatch says that the blow
ing up of the magazine at Toulon, by
which 100 persons lest their lives, was
the work of London anarchists. They
expected to gain no special advantage
by the crime, hut felt that it was time
power To this is added sensational
story, said to have been obtained by a
London detective who wormed himself
into the confidence of the anarchists. 1t
appears that very large continental
scheme of blackmail has been in opera
ton for two years. The anarchists en-
ploy crafty and plausible agents who
zee high dignitaries and officials when
they are alone. and show the@ written
paper offering them immunity from the
vengeance of the anarchists on the pay
ment Of large sum. If the victim OBJ
jects, the agent invariably says 1T is
useless to arrest me- If you make
hostile move, l will swallow the paper
and you can prove nothing. 1 care moth
ing for my life and you will lose yours.
This threat. we are told, has accom-
plished it's purpose with many princes
and officials who willingly and secret
