Popular With the Workmen.

After her popularity seemed established
when no danger to her person appeared
probable, she took her share Of the direc-
ton Of the excavation which was going on
simultaneously in various parts Of the huge
mounds of Nippur. Ultimately the work.

work was done. they bore her to the house
upon their shoulders. The finest flowers
and fruits, and various curiosities were
brought to her by the Arabs, especially by
the children, whose devotion to 1.-The Begs
harem," as she was called, was remarka-
BILE.
The workmen lived with their families
in little reed huts, and Mrs. Haynes was
often asked to visit these to tend sufferers
from fever. burns or some disease. At
first they called her derisively the Giaour
Christtan) but they soon reverenced her
knowledge Of healing drugs. The discov-
cry of the treachery Of one Of the Arab
sheikhs, the beating of the postman by
his predecessor in Office and various like
incidents divided attention with the prog

The wall of the city was traced for 482
feet and the gateway of the ancient city,
with the stairways on either side, and the
large open space into which the chariots
were driven to await their masters, were
all laid bare. No better idea of the work
done by Mrs. Haynes can be given than
by copying an extract from a page of her
diary. at which I have been permitted to
glance. This entry was made q month
after reaching Nippur:

Crime Among the Moros.
In my travels among the Moros I found
them a peaceable people. They have good
order, because every man carries a knife,
and an insult might cause one to lose his
head. They have little regard for life.
Death is one of their punishments for theft.
While Gen. Bates was in Sulu one of the
Moros stole knife belonging to his party,
and the datto who ruled there wondered
why our soldiers did not cut of the thiefs
head.
Shortly after this the transport Warren
called at Jolo with a party of Americans on
board. The sultan came down to visit
them, and upon leaving found that his best
cane had mysteriously disappeared. The
stick was set with jewels, and the sultan
complained. Had the thief been caught
alone in his territory he would probably
have been killed.
Last October eight men were cut to
mince meat in the Sulus because they had
stolen 10 cents worth of fish. The thieves
were Moros from a neighboring island, who
had robbed the fish traps. They were cap
tured and trial was held. Before 1t was
over one of the Sulu Moros accused one of
the defendants of being a thief. The ac-
cused at once drew his kris and started for
his accuSer, upon which the friends of the
latter rushed in and grabbed the eight
strangers. They tied their hands behind
them and chopped them in pieces When
the American soldiers arrived the bodies
were still bleeding and there was not a
spot as large as your hand on any one of
them that had not been cut. While the SOL
diers were looking on other Moros came up
and tested the edges of their knives by
chopping into the human flesh.
A Murderous Presidente.
I remember a presdente whom I met at
Zamboanga. We rode about together look
ing over his town and 1 chatted with him
about himself and his work. He made no
bones of telling me how he had killed his
predecessor. He was in charge of the town
when our soldiers attacked ii, and was sup
posed to be associated with a Filipino gen.
eral in it's defense. He called this general
to him, pretending he wanted a conference,
and when he came gave a sign to his own
soldiers to shoot him. This they did. He
rather laughed as he showed me how he
had killed his associate. and was evidently
proud of his action. The fact that he had
lied did not cause a blush, and this is SO
with the majority of our little brown cou-
sins.
The Filipino has received his moral ideas
thing of lying to gain his end. The most of
them believe that it is only through fear
that people tell the truth. l remember a
story of Capt. Howland's describing his ex-
periences with the insurgents. At one time
he came upon party of Filipinos whom he
supposed 20 be insurgents out for supplies.
He asked them If this vas not the case.
They replied that they had been insur-
rectos, but they were now tired of fighting

Some survival. Of Fa.h,op.

Man is unquestionably highly ra-

observe, from the mouth OF the Danube
TO the Golden Gate you will find most
men wearing coat with useless col
lar marked with useless v shaped
slash and decorated with two useless
buttons Mt the small OF the back and
one or two more useless buttons ut the
cuffs. The collar, the slash and the
buttons are there in answer to no
rational need. 1t is not common eli
mate nor common racial need of pro-
lection against climate that they repre-
sent, but common civilization whose
form and ritual they mutely confess.
Over this entire area those who aspire
to be of the Brahman caste deck their
heads for wedding. funeral and feast

avert the weapon of the adversary or
the dart of the rain nor to provide n
seat whcreon man may sit and rest
himself. And as for the women con-
tanned within this same area we behold
that the amplitude of the sleeve, the
disposition of the belt and the outline
of the skirt all obey the rise and fall
of one resistless tide which neither
