Manila. Oct. 22.-Ths Philippine CON-
mission has passed bill appropriating
$4,000 in gold for the payment Of en-.
penses Inquired for the benefit Of the
nsulArt<Gyernment during October.
The bill sOes carefully into detail TO
garding the items Of expenditure
throughout the archipelago. Judge
Taft has been engaged for some time in
taking 4 mass OF Filipino testimony
concerning the conduct and policy Of
the Friars. this being in continuation Of
the investigation which began with
the dispositions Of bishops and mem bers
Of Monastic orders.
The statements Of the Filipinos show
that the Friars under the Spanish regime
greatly abused their limitless political
and religious powers over the communi.
~ that this abuse Of authority often led
TO immortality. All the testimony OF.
fered by the Filipinos show that they do
not desire the return Of the FriArs TO the
parishes
Archbishop ChApelle has gone TO the
more peaceful provinces Of northern
Luzon, accompanied by three Domini.
clan FriArs. II u asserted and general.
ly believed that he intends TO reestab.
lish these Friars in certain parishes and
the trip is exciting the natives in Manila,
who call upon their oountrymen TO pro.
vent the reestablishment Of Friary or.
ganization on the ground that IL would
fix dangerous precedent for the fa.
ture.

"It keeps all sorts of time" she said
sweetly.

and only remarked mildly:
"a watch needs very careful han

that it won't get scratched. | ought

There are strange instances some
times of the truth of the saying that
the poor are better to their kind than
the rich. In one of the streets running
out of Broadway in front of Cne of
those big ediliccS which are half office
and half factory building an old wom-
an stations herself nightly and holds
out tin cup for stray pennies.
Occasionally she forgets herself and
sits there long after the people in the
building have gone home. This hap
pcncd one night recently, and as the
writer was passing long after o'clock
he saw two lads coming along the de-
serted street. One of them noticed the
old crOnc and after passing rctraced
his steps and threw penny in the cup
she held. There was no one to see his
charitable act and no one to praise
him. His clothing was ragged, and
his condition betokcncd want almost
as much rs the individual who bene-
fitted by his generosity. 1t is not al
ways those with plenty Of money who
are the most lavish with it or who deny
themselves the most readily. - New

"People in the small towns up in
Connecticut" said the travelling man,
appear to be much more honest than
they are in New York. Not one fam.
lily in ten thinks of such Il thing as
burglar alarms. and half of tn, III do
not even lock their outer doors when
they retire. But what impresscS me
most are the street laundry boxes.
NEARLY every town of 1000 or more
inhabitants has several places where
laundry packages are received and de-
livcrcd. These places are generally
dry goods or notion stores. or hahrr-
daShcrieS. Suburban merchants as n
rule do not keep their stores open much
later than s o'clock in the evening and
do not open them until I or half past
in the morning.
"rhiS does not suit all their patrons,
so 1t is no infrcqucnt sight to see out
side the store large red box with Il
fair sized opening in the top The box
bears the legend If the store is closed.
put your laundry in here. Now. Just
imagine a New York laundry office MS
ing receptacle like that! Why. five
minutes after package was deposited
in the box it would be tiShcd out, and
in an hour its contents would be in the
possession of some dealer in second
hand clothing But up in Connecticut
the scheme seems to work very WE'LL
and all can say is that it is a tribute
to the general honesty of the commu
nity."-New York Herald.

PUBLIC HOSPITALS.



Hospitals are desirable in small cit
les as well as in large cities and for the
same general reason" said promi-
ncnt Chicago physician recently.
"FirSt.-In Il properly managed hos
pital-and there should be no other
patients, medical and surgical alike,
can receive better treatment than they
can mt their homes. This is particulars
ly trnc of surgical cases and of the
more common class of severe medical
eases, as typhoid fever and pneumonia.
"ScCond.-Thc nursing is better and
more systematic than it can be in a
private house.
"Third.-The patients are not sub
jcct"d to the bancful influences of
OvcrzcalouS friends.
"Fourth.-Thc diet, ventilation and
bancation can be better controlled.
"Fifth.-Thc doctors orders are not
intcrfcrcd with.
"SiXth.-Thc scientific attainmcntS
and the esprit de corps of the medical
profession of the city are greatly clc-
waited, as a hospital is a great Llcuba-
tor as well as diSScminator of Ucdical
knowledge.
"ScVcnth.-A hospital in n city of
$1,000 inhabitants and under would he
great source of education as to the
limitations of medicine and surgery in
the allcviatiOn of human ills and in
tirmitiCS.
Eighth. scientific quality and
the extent of work that may be accom-
plishcd by a hospital properly manag-
ed even in a city of less than 1000 in
habitants, is beautifully demonstrated
by the work of st. Mary's hospital at
Rochester, Minn.
"Ninth.-A hospital properly and ju-
diciOuSly managed can be made self
sustaining with the patients paying on
an average of SO week for board and
ordinary nursing. The INDECENT should
be cared for out of the corporation

The largest hanging bell in the world
is in Il Buddhist monastery near Can
ton. 1t is IS feet high and 10 feet in
circumference and is of solid bronze.
Canton has Il pretty little fable con-
nected with it. The story is told by
Mrs. J. II. Newman in one of her
sketches of travel. The life of the
founder of the greatest bell of China
had been threatened by the emperor
because of his unsuccessful attempts
to make bell having perfect purity
of tone. The bell founders beautiful
daughter, witnessing her fathers
agony while imploring the emperor for
one more trial. consulted the gods as
to the reason for failure. Being told
that should the blood of a fair maiden
mingle with the bell metal the result
would be secured, she, waiting beside
her father until able to see her face in
the molten ore. plunged in and was de-
stroyed. TO the sacrifice of this maiden
the Chinese attribute the beauty and
sweetness of the tone of the great bell
of Ta-Cung-tZ.-New York Times.

greeting as he disappeared over the
crest of the nearest kopic. turning to
his right.
When he had disappeared, Barker
looked around him, reviewing the Situ-
alton. 1t was not a very cheering
prospect that met his eye. Two hills,
or kOpics, of some thousand feet rose
to the right and left. and he could see
the setting sun on the horizon between
them far beyond on the vcldt. The
day had been intensely hot.
Il don't know what the deuce to do
now" thought Barker. As if in answer
to the question the wounded guide roll
ed over on his side making an effort to
rise.
"Where's Mass Shacfcr?" he said
looking around him in surprise.
Barker gave the negro Il ii. nix of
brandy mixed with water from lis can
teen, and the man presently seemed to
revive sufficiently to sit up.
Barker laughed "rimly. Hes gone
down the path leading to the Tugcla
river, leaving us both here in Il nice
mess" he said. The darky rubbed his
hand over his eyes wcarly and then
gazcd steadily along the road ahead.
"Yo' say he go long the right trail?"
muttercd the man.

"Thcn he's sure gone wrong That
right trail leads down to the Bo' camp,
and he'll get nab or killed for spy" ;he
guide said slowly.
1t was too late now to warn the Ger
man correspondent. He was far out of

The next day Tom Barker. with Il new

British camp on the Tugcla. They
reached it at sunset the next evening,
and Barker reported himself to the
commanding officer, who waS glad to
get news of the bclcHgucrcd army in

begged for Il party to 90 out i'll search

stern general steadily refused to listen

BEHIND TIE TIMES.


is u bpSiN NAUlper.
Governor Rollins of New Hampshire
in a recent address on the value of inn
proved highways said that the prog
ress of the national life was indicated
by the roads. The progress of the pco-
pie il arts and sciences is indicated by
roa Is. We are becoming a little vain
glorious, We people of this century.
We believe that we are up to date, but
when we come to the subject of roads
we are far behind the times.
Governor Rollins dwclt upon the
character of the highways of the Eo-
man empire. Even today in every
part of the world where Rome had Il
foothold. he said, traces are left of the
wonderful roads When Rome began
to decline, road building was stopped.
1t has only been of recent date, he
continued, that good roads began to
show themselves in England and in
Scotland. The progress and strength
of the English people have been coin
cidcnt with the building of good roads.
The governor advocated plan to open
up the rural sections of New England
by the construction of paths aud lanes
leading to picturesque spots, y indinS
In and out of wooded districts and Sc
cludcd places, forming a sort of mex
pcnSiyc park system.
Tho good roads movement in this
country is only of very recent date,
and the bicycle is chiefly responsible
for the agitation and beginning of the
