the most highly respected citizens of

WONDER WHO HE IS:

lie has done nothing which he vas
not told to do by his masters. Until
those masters made up their minds
he did nothing. He favored the war
with Spain only when they told him
to do 60, and they told him to do 80
only when they saw that their skins
would be in danger at the hands OF
an indignant people. lie has made
war upon the F~ilipinos because it
was ordered 10y rascals who want the
first pickings Of the plum tree. He
has made this country hated in Cuba
because they demanded certain fran
chises and that the island be held in re-
lentless grip until the franchises Q II
perfected and made over to them. He
has treated Porto Rico in the same
fashion and for the same reasons.
Both OF these islands are now ripe for
revolution. These things the people
OF the United States understand
They understand also that all the talk
Of our overwhelming prosperity is the
most utter rot. The country at large
Is mo prosperous. There is little
money to be obtained. The volume
OF business is not one half what it
should be. Currency is in the banks

Many curious Easter customs and
superstitions have come down to us
from the OLD Saxon celebration OF the
day. Ono is that the sun dances in
the sky on Enster morning, and III
Dcronshire, England, young girls
still get up early to see the planet
skip about. II IN east wind is blow.
ing on Easter morning. it is Il custom
in some parts OF Germany to draw
water and wash in it, thus avoiding
all danger from the East wind during
the coming year. In the county of
Sussex, England, the peasants believe
that il the sun shines on Easter lay
it will shine, il only Il little, every day
i'll the year;if it rain, every day will see
rain, il only Il few drops. In Cont.
mental Europe the peasants formerly
celebrated the day 10y putting robes
on n Of their number, browning
him with II tin crown and saluting
him rs king.
In Russia the feast is celebrated on
Easter " All night long the streets
are brilliantly lighted and crowded
with people in new clothes. At mid.
night n is said in all the Greek
churches. Russians call Easter @The
Opener OF the Gates OF Paradise
In Greece men and women greet
each other with a kiss. exchanging
red eggs and the customary Easter
greetings.
In Rome the celebration Of Easter
is most splendid. Formerly the pope
himself said mass IN ST. Peters. The
day was ushered in by the firing OF
cannon. St. Peters was brilliantly
lighted and beautifully decorated and
the Papal guards, in full uniform,
formed a double line from the altar
to the shrine OF the apostles. At
night st. Peters WAS lit by hundreds
Of thousands 81 tiny oil lamps. Lat
er they were extinguished md rs
many basins Of golden fire we're lit at
tho same time. The ceremonies have
lost some Of their splendor in recent

Railway Work In tn. Phlllppln,..

The fact that the entire railway
system OF the Philippine Islands at
present consists Of a single line OF nm
antiquated pattern, having a length
OF less than l25 milee, gives some idea
Of the neglect OF this economic form
OF travel and transportation under
the long Spanish regime. The road
intersects the rich peninsula north.
west OF Manila, aud connects TINT
city with Dagupan, a town on the
east coast OF the island OF Luzon
which will eventually become an i'm,
portant one. To be exact, the length
Of the line ID l22 miles. The gauge is
three feet six inches, and the ties are
Of the finest hard wood, obtained
from the forests along the line, On
the entire length there are sixty iron
bridges. As compared with the fairly
substantial character Of the roadbed,
the rolling stock is very light. In
speed and capacity the locomotives
are insignificant, being OF less than
ten tons burden.
The usual speed varied from iif.
teen to twenty miles an hour, and
when thu ,merican troops took
possession their railroading astonish-
ed the natives, the speed beng
very frequently doubled. Compart-
ment coaches are use d., and these
are divided into three classes or
apartments, each apartment seating
eight PERSONS. Tho few iirst-class
coaches are provided with comfort
able cane chairs, while the second
tiaSa coaches are provided with rough
wooden benches, and the third-class
are bare, and are usually crowded
with natives carrying baskets and
bundles OF all descriptions. An or
binary train is made up Of eight or
ten carriages, most OF them second
class and the fare ranges from two to
five cents Mexican, per mile. The
bulk Of tho freight now carried is
made up Of rice, sugar, hemp and
building material and the rates on all
classes OF traffic are considerable.
