KIPLING AND AMERICANS.

(From the Boston Transcript
The latest testimony as to the present
attitude of Kipling comes in a letter dated
February 2 last, and written by ram
panty patriotic young American woman
from London. She met him at a private
dinner party there.
Il had heard" she wrote, that he was
rude, abrupt crusty, contradictions, self
Opinionated; that he hated Americans, de-
spised women and was altogether and en-
entirely difficult Far away from home
my own patriotism astoniSheS me. My
saying that 1 went with chip each
shoulder and a whole log to cut others
from when the first ones were knocked
off. The chips are still there. They are
waiting for whoever says that Kipling is
anything but a ViVaciOuSly sympathetic
gentleman and a marvellous understander
of birds, beasts, men, fishes, machinery,
legislation, women, children and Kip
.'Kipling toId-and told very well-the
story of the American girl who insisted
called Winkle. and justified it by saying
that If Majoribanks and Ruthven spelled
MarchbankS and RiVven, then Windsor
Castle must spell Wrinkle. 1t was just
here that discovered that Kipling had
been libeled to his dislike of Americans.
Guile US they talk through their noses; this
is what he did not do. Instead. he gave
that soft, sliding intonation, where even
a word of one syllable begins on one note
and ends on another. 1t is quite as char
acteristic of us, and Kipling's choice as
to which of our two marked peculiarities
he should reproduce showed plainly that
while he is not blind to our traits. he sees
them from a more friendly point of view
than has been generally assigned to him. -

PHILIPPINE CHRISTIANS.

from the St Louis Post-Dispatch.1
Christmas is a great day in the Phil
ippines. 1t enjoys the finest weather of
the year. The sky is pale blue or hazy
with thin gray clouds. The orange
groves put on the finest attire and form
long walls OF FURNISHED green dotted
with golden circles. A dozen other trees
and scores of shrubs and lowly plants
seemingly try to celebrate the season
by putting out their fairest flowers or
sweetest fruit.
Christmas there is a holiday, and is
observed something as it is in Madrid,
something as it may have been before
the conquestador laid his iron hand upon
the dOcile Tagal. The churches are open
and are centers of human activity.
White women, and brown, yellow and
red, proud CastilianS and humble col
onials, Tagal and Irrogate, Vasaya and
half-breed, make up the procession that
enters and departs through the great
church portals.
Within is the storm Of noble music
played as only the Filipino can play.
The art nature in the brown race eX-
presses itself in music and motion. The
recrea ton OF the savage IS found IN song
and dance, and the OrcheStraS of the
church show their ancestral habits by
melodic composition and the rhythmic
swaying of heads and hands and often
feet They seldom play the harmonic
masterpieces of Bach, Handel Haydn,
or Beethoven; they probably would not
understand the higher thought which is
efforts Of these composers, but when it
comes to GOunod and Verdi. to such
pieces as the Infiammatus and the Ave
Maria, they play and sing with a vigor
and enthusiasm that are soul-stirring.
Everybody is dressed in what New
Englanders call Sunday-go-t to- meeting
clothes. The CauCasians wear the toilets
Of Madrid, rich with Gothic laces, velvet
applique silks and satins. The half
breeds appear in quaint but elegant
robes of silk and grass cloth pinas and
other odd but attra ctive creations of
the eastern loom: while the poor ma
tives wear the Philippine vest, which,
in their way, are as graceful and be-
coming as the finest modes from Paris.
When the mass is over the men hurry
TO the cockpit and wager their pesetas
and pesos upon their faVOrite birds
Women form social parties in the court
yards of their homes and there talk
gossip and discuss never-ending prob
lens Of domestic economy, the same as
their sisters in other parts of the world.
Sometimes the street is enlvened by a
religious procession, and sometimes a
native funeral blocks the thoroughfare
Through the white men and the brown
men move the stolid Chinese, dressed in
their invariable blue suits: the poor
coolies in the cheapest cotton cloth, and
the rich merchants in ma gnificent robes
of Canton silk. 1t is an odd combina-
ton of races, the brown Malay joStling
with the still darker Paquan, and jos
tied in turn by the yellow man, and all
subordinated to the imperious white
race. no matter whether Spanish, Eng
liSh or American.
