The natives of Guam are in pleasin
contrast to the Filipinos. Though
originally, in great part, from the
same stock, they have inherited all of
the virtues and few of the vices OF
these people. There is in the blood
of these people a considerable pro-
portion of Spanish, South Ameri-
caI, and American stock, the last
being due to the whaling-vessels
that used to frequent the island in
large numbers to obtain fresh water
md to recuperate their. crews. 1t is
not at all unusual to hear English
spoken, even in the interior of the
island, and, in fact, it is quite as
common as Spanish. In personal ap-
pearance the natives resemble the
Filipinos, though of greater stature
Ind more robust, while the hair is not
so brlstling and porcupine-like, and
brown or even blond hair is occa-
sional evidence of the mixture of

Z In regard to her mission here she said,

was my idea when I left the other side,
for the English papers bad He'd me to
believe that America was wholly with
the English in the present conflict,
but from what have seen and heard
since my arrival, I have come to the
conclusion that America is in sympathy
with the Beers. The English press
has q great habit of suppressing news
that they regard as unfavorable to-
England, aud this false report OF the
public sentiment of America is Only
another instance of it. The sympathy
Of Ireland is wholly with the Beers in
their present struggle for liberty, and
it warns our hearts to know that this;

Upon occasions of the greatest i'm
portance an elaborate jacket OF the
beautiful and expensive juns cloth,
with flowing sleeves and wide collar,
is worn over the chemise. With this
is worn a skirt of vari-colored calico
or cotton stuff, generally OF some
bright hue. The feet are usually bare,
small heelless slippers OF colored
leather being occa sionally seen. The
hair is drawn back from the forehead
in knot, and hats are never worn.
In church q white cloth is worn as o
veil over the head.
The men dress simply and comfort
ably, generally in suits OF white drill
ing, such as are common all through
the East. The Filipino custom of
wearing a white shirt with long and
flowing tails is in favor among the
poorer natives.
One of the first things evident to Us
is the decided antipathy OF the natives
for the Filipinos. There are few OF them
upon the island, and these are not at
all regarded with favor. In truth,
they seem to be quite as urruly here
as they are in their home, and their
qualities make them about the only
