HOMES IN MANILA.
How People Live in Uncle Sam's Newly Acquired Asiatic
 Territory.

The better houses in Manila differ in
 Always of two stories there is a high
 stone basement, with q carriage way to
 the court. where are the servants quar-
 ters and domestic offices The upper
 story is of wood, being complete in itself, so that in case of an earthquake
 it will settle together. The ceilings are
 covered with cloth instead of plaster. A wide stairway leads up from the car riage way. Between three and four feet above the floor of this story is a wide window ledge with grooves run ming the whole length of every side. In these grooves slide blinds and also frames in which are set small squares of oyster shell (called "conchas'). Both blinds and conchas run the full length of each side. Either or both can be closed at the same time, and both can be slid back 10 the width of one at each end, leaving the whole side open, and the air to circulate as freely as in a shed. The roofs were formerly made of heavy curved tiles. Now gal vanized iron is used, as it vastly de- creases the chance of the roof falling during an earthquake, and lessens the damage if it does. On the other hand the iron roof is much more likely to be blown off by the terrible typhoons. The native houses are built of bamboo, wit h matched roofs made of the leaf of the nipa palm and elevated from six to ten feet on bamboo Eoles
