Manila say the Ladrones which are har-
RAISING the rural population are in many
instances led by negroes who have been
discharged from the army and are employ
ing their military knowledge in drilling
and organizing the bandits
In the province OF Bulacan II is under

an American negro are sehemlng to wipe
out the constabulary and that four miles
out from the town Of Caloocan four Amer
lean blacks are engaged in drilling a large
number OF highwaymen in military tactics
and training them in the use OF firearms
Because OF the increasing activity OF the
Ladrones the continued withdrawal and
concentration Of troops in the islands Is
causing apprehension among the inhabi-
tants OF many provinces who have de-
pended wholly upon the military for pro-
lection. The Ladrones are said to be no
toriously bold and numerous in Rial and
the president Of that province recently
called on Adiutant General Heistand for
relief.

most striking Incident OF the session in the
House Of Commons was the dramatic, tacti-
cal victory achieved Tuesday by the Irish

the party by wire to support an amendment
made to the education bill in the House OF
Lords by which the cost OF internal re-
pairs to voluntary schools should be at the
public charge instead OF being provided by
the funds at the disposal Of the school
managers.
Prime Minister Balfour favored this
amendment, but owing to the large seces-
sion Of his regular supporters he was afraid
to risk government defeat by making It
question Of confidence in the ministry. So
he left 1t an open question for the house
to decide and 1t was carried by only 9S
votes. As nearly sixty Irish members
voted for it this concession, vastly impor-
tant to poor Catholic schools, was secured
for them by the Irish party. It was the

position to determine the result and their

INSANITY ON THE INCREASE
Noted Swedish Specialist Gives Over
Education as One of the
Reasons.

Copyright. 1902, by Press Publishing Coz
STOCKHOLM, Sweden, Dec. 20.-(New
York World Cablegram-Speclal Telegram.)
Hermann Laudberg of the great Swedish
lunatic asylum at Upsala says that lunacy
is increasing among Swedish women, and
more especially among the educated classes.
In the lower classes insanity is brought on
chiefly by the cares of life or intemper-
ance, but in the educated women the main
cause, he contends, is their education.
Most OF the women patients at Upsala have
been educated in the high schools or the
universities and large proportion Of them
have been teachers or governesses. DR..
Laudberg emphatically asserts that the
forced training to which this class OF
women submit themselves is most hurtful.
"It is monstrous," he says, "to subject
women to this competition and II the COM
petition does not cease the effects upon
future generations will be disastrous"
Mr.. Laudberg states that Swedish women
who have been educated at academies have
remarkably small families when they have
any and that in too many cases their
family relations are unhappy, owing to
their inability to discharge household
duties.

Parkinson's debut at the Opera Comique
this week in 'Lakine" was a great success.
The American colony turned out in force
and gave the young singer an enthusiastic
reception.
Miss Parkinson is engaged for three years
at the Comique. She has a most melodious
voice, sings faultlessly and acts intelli-
gently. Not one rehearsal with the or
chestra did the management give her, so
Monday evening was the first time in her
life she had sung with an orchestra. This
shows how little interest is felt here in
the debuts Of foreign artists. Nothing more
unjust can be imagined than to make
young girl go on the stage and sing before
a critical audience without having allowed
her one single orchestra rehearsal. Miss
Parkinson was recalled three times after
each act.
