Was that II they had not taken the
article Ii would have been burned. But
for genuine footing the Chinese bear
the palm. They steal everything they
can lind.
The Filipino children greatly inter-
ested Mrs. Schwichtenberg. Their
faces are SO pensiVe and sad. They
seem TO have no fun and never play
with toys, in marked contrast to the
Japanese children, who have every sort
of toy and are the happiest beings in
the world. The only diversion of the
Fflipinos is cockfighting. Their chief
vice, SO far as she knew, was stealing
for Aguinaldo. \ servant would be
scrupulOusly honest until one day he
would be missing, and 1t would be
found that he had taken what money
he could find TO the insurgent head
quarters. Later he might return TO the
city, but not 10 his former place. The
servants are often energetic. but as
whole unreliable. If they grow tired
or the day becomes too warm or they
want a fish to eat. they drop any sort
OF work they are doing and seek cool
place or go fishing.
Mrs. Schwichtenberg's visit to San
Pedro Macati while a battle was on
proved one of the most interesting of
her experiences. She told her coach
man to drive there, and he refused.
saying that his friends were there and
would force him TO fight against the
Americans. which he did not wish to
do. An American soldier finally COM
PEELED him 10 obey, but the poor fellow
was almost terror stricken all the way.
Her object in going was to take some
boxes 10 the Nebraska volunteers sent
by their friends. She was conveyed to
the trenches and allowed to watch the
firing and even 10 fire q muSket herself.
The experience was exciting and grew
too much SO. as the bullets kept drop
ping all around so she was soon glad
to obey the order to return TO her car
riage and tell her delighted driver to
take her home.
Mrs. Schwichtenberg arrived in Ma
Mia i'll March and returned n few
weeks ago. She regards the ecclesias-
teal conditions in Hawaii as the model
toward which we should strive for the
people Of the Philippines.

Interesting Discoveries Made on the
Ute Reservation In Colorado.
More evidence of the antiquity of
man on the American continent has
just been discovered in southwestern
Colorado. In constructing irrigation

was in Denver the other day. and his
account of his discoveries Indicates that
they are of the highest scientific i'm
portance He is civil engineer who
has lived many years in southwestern
Colorado and is we'll trained in archa-
illogical research.
Tradition and other evidence lead to
the belief that the clif jewellers We're
the immediate furerunnerS of the
modern Indians. The ruins found by
Mr. WiggleSworth were undoubtedly
once inhabited by partially civilized
people differing widely in habits from
the races they preceded. 1t is his
opinion that this earlier race lived in
the fertile valleys and Inhabited adobe
houses instead of houses of stone. Evi-
dences of such structures are distribut-
ed through scores OF valleys aud wide
mountain canyons.

that the principal houses of these uu

FAMINE IN INDIA.
Missionary Writes That 1t Will Be
Worse Than the Last.

The American board of commission
ers for foreign missions has received al
Boston from the Rev. Il. \. Hume, at
Ahmednuggur, India. q letter. dated
Dec. =, in which. according to the New
York Sun, he says that the present
famine in western India is sure to be
far more distressing than even the fam
inc of two years ago. The entire COM
munity in some places will be in dis
tress. \ severe drought has already
begun in the Ahmednuggur district.
In many places ii is hard I'd get Suffi
cient water to drink. and no rain can
be expected until the middle of June.
What the distress will be before that
time who can imagine:" he says.
Ahmednuggur has suffered very bad
ly from the plague and is not yet free
from it. Sholapur now has n severe
epidemic. Bombay is perhaps in the
beginning of another plague expert
ence. Parts of the Satara district have
been badly attacked. The people are
always in distress and in some irrita-
ton over this grievous condition. The
early crops in the Ahmednuggur dis
trict were only from one-eighth to one
sixth of full crops. and the later crops
are almost total failure In other dis
tricts the crops are small. Husbands
are leaving their wives and parents
their children. Relief corps are being
opened, some charity also is admins
tered, but official relief, Mr. Hume
SAYS, never can meet the multitude of
necessities.
