Gold Deposits in the PHILIPPINES.

At this distance and with the slight
exploratory work which has been car
ried on in the Philippine Islands, the
minerals that can be profitably ex-
ported are best known. Mr.. George
+. Becker, in his recent investigation
has given very clear view of the
present mineral exploration in the
Philippines, and is shown that gold
is found in great number of locali-
ties in the archipelago, from northern
Luzon to central Mindanao. In most
cases the gold is detrital, and is found
either in existing water courses or in
deposits now deserted by the current.
1t is said that in Mindanao some OF
the gravels are in an elevated position
and adapted to hydraulic mining.
There are no data at hand which indi.
cate decisively the value, of any Of
the placers, but the fact that they are
washed largely with cocoanut shells
for pans by the natives is an indica
ton of either rich deposits or quite
coarse gold. In the province of Abra.
at the northern end of Luzon, there
are placers, and the river Abra itself
yields auriferous gravel. In LIE
Planto there are gold quartz viens as
we'll as gravels, and here also is tho
best developed deposit of copper ores,
although these are also reported from
a great number of localities on the
islands of Luzon, Mindoro, Capul,
Masbate, Panay and Mindanao. This
last island is practically unexploreo
and full of possibilities.

The Hindu Idea Of Religion.

met in India an intelligent Sikh
from the Punjah and asked him about
his religion. He replied: II believe
in one God, and / repeat my prayers,
called Japji, every morning and even
ing. These prayers occupy six pages
of print, but 1 can get through them
in a little more than ten minutes" He
seemed to pride himself on this rapid
recitation as work of increased merit.
I said, "What else does your religion
require of you?" He replied, 81 have
made one pilgrimage to a holy well
near Amritsar. Eighty-fve steps lead
down to 1t. I descended and bathed
in the sacred pool. Then 1 assembled
one step and repeated my Japji in
about ten minutes. Then descended
again to the pool and bathed again,
and assembled to the second step, and
repeated my Japji second time.
Then 1 descended a third time and
bathed, and assembled to the third step
and repeated my Japji a third time;
and so on for the whole eighty-five
steps, eighty-five bathings and eighty
five repetitions of the same prayers. 1t
took me exactly fourteen hours, from
5 p. m. one evening to Z a. m. next
morning." I asked, "What good did
you expect to get by going through
this task?" He replied, 81 hope l
have laid up a great store of merit,
which will last me long time" This
is the genuine Hindu idea. Sir Mon
