NEW YORK. Dee. 25.-John Most. the
high priest OF anarchy. made the an
nouDcement yesterday that he had dis

(Which he said was the war cry raised
by President Roosevelt and echoed by
Congross). Now. then, hear the other
side. The anarchists will take the floor.

FlLIPENOS AS TEACHERS.
Native Instructors Applying for En-
trance TO Normal school


The normal school established in Ma
Mia for the training aud education of
Filipino teachers has met with a large
measure OF success. according to the lat
est report of the Taft Commission.
From all parts of the archipelago come
native teachers to enjoy these advan-
tages, and it is n noteworthy fact that
10 per cent Of those coming from the
provinces are able to speak English with
some degree of fluency. all being repre-
sentatives Of the best cultivation and in
telligenCe in the islands
II was estimated in the beginning that
there would not be more than $50 teach
crs in attendance and Il was thought that
only this number could be accommodated
in the building selected for ;he school.
but on the opening day IL was found that
$50 had been enrolled.
Altogether 500 we're enrolled and ad-
mitted TO classes, and of this number $40
studied faithfully to the end OF the term
ana were given certificates testifying to
the fact OF their attendance.
While this central normal school will
furnish instruction to a large number of
pupils. ii is clearly seen that they will
represent but a fraction of those persons
in the provinces who are at present
teaching. or who propose to become
teachers. To extend this instruction so
as to embrace The largest possible num-
her Of persons in need OF it. arrangements
are being made for holding normal terms
in the several divisions.
By assembling the teachers of the va
rious divisions for a number of weeks
each year and placing the Filipino teach
ers under the discipline and instruction
of trained Americans. much will be done
toward giving them the knowledge need
ed in their profession and inspiring them
with the enthusiasm and ambition req-
uisite to make them efficient in their
work

Elorics's Good Fortune.

Florida has recovered largely from
the calamity inflicted upon her eight
years ago by thu freeze that came
near destroying every orange grove in
the state.
For several seasons Florida oranges
were very scarce, and there sre no
others worthy TO be compared with
them.
The whole country felt Florids's
misfortune and the whole country is
happy over Florids's partial and con-
tinuing recovery from il.
The orange season in that state
which has just opened, barring scci-
dedts, will be very profitable. There

grown since the freeze and the fruit

THE CONQUEST OF DEATH.

Mrs. Helen Wilmans-Post has writ
ten a book entitled, 1.-THE Conquest of
Death.r
When this last enemy is conquered,
What shall man do? Shall he be
consigned TO live always in a world
like this where there is such an I'M
equal distribution of all things and a
severe and unremitting struggle for
bare existence?
Does the human race after all find
death an enemy? Is he not
rather q friend in whose silent realms
there is not only rest for the afflicted,
infirm and aged, hut a surcease from
sorrow for the poor and unfortunate,
who counts in their procession nine
tenths OF the inhabitants of the earth.
As long as age is an infirmity, di-
sease stalks the earth, and the prodigal
gifts of mother nature are monopoliz-
