A FILIPINO CREW.
Sailors on the Monmouthshire.R Recently
Arrived In Portland. Are Natives
of the Island of Luzon.

Something Of interest at this particu.
lar time is the fact that the sailors and
coal passers on the Monmouthshire.
which has recently arrived in Portland,
Or. are Filipinos. On shipboard
they are known as Manila men. and
regarded as good sailors as ever went
before a mast. They are not unlike
the Mongolians, and in fact bear SO
much resemblance to them that one
not otherwise informed would put
them down for Queueless sons OF the
Flowery Kingdom or subjects Of the
Island Empire. Some Of them have
been with the steamer for long time,
and understand English fairly well,
besides being we'll versed in Spanish.
They are fully ooanizant Of the fact
that war is now raging between their
countrymen and the United States. and
believe Aguinaldo undoubtedly a good
man." to use the exact words of one Of
them. Another said it was no telling
where the fight will end or who will
get the upper hand. In speaking of the
trouble. they are little conservative,
which is not at all surprising, con-
sidering the fact that they are strangers
in a strange land and under paiticu-
larly strange circumstances. Although
much like the Mongolians in appear.
ance the two people differ much in
habits and general makeup. Ruled by
firm hand. yet not too severe. the
Filipinos prove good workmen, always
willing to perform their share of the
duties assigned them, and IN case of
trouble they can always be relied upon
to uphold the side of their superior.
