appeared.

The traveller handed him coin, and

AN uP-CoUNTRY SOLOMON.

able Decision,


In small town in one Of the central
counties of New York State lives an
old German, who, because OF the high
esteem in which he is held in the COM
munity, was elected justice of the
peace. The old gentleman was once
called upon, says the New York Times,
to decide most perpleXing question.
one yof his fellow citizens owned a
dog which, although not very vicious,
had a bad hablt of barking at passers-
by. A nelghbor vowed vengeance. His
chance came when he was returning
from shooting trip, gun In hand. The
dog ran out and barked sayagely at
him. and he fired at the animal. As
his aim was bad, the dog escaped. yelp-
Ing, with nothing more serious than a
wounded tail.
The owner Of the dog had his neigh
Dor brought before the old justice on
charge of cruelty to animals, and the
courtroom was crowded with the par
tisans of both men. The justice heard
the charge. and then the defense that
the dog was a dangerous animal and a
menace to the nelghborhocdt The old
German cleared his throat and deliver
ed the dictum:
"Der mamie has been guilty of cru

The Filipinos as They Are

The country has been flooded for the
two years with descriptions of the
Fillpinos, ranging from the "eye-wit-
ness testimony of soldiers writing
home to the papers, to learned encyclo-
pedic articles. Gov. William II. Taft,
one of the few men Of vigorous intel
ligence who have been on the spot,
writes in the Independent about the
character Of our adopted brother:
Far from showing all the signs Of a
decadent people, the Filipino is domes-
tic and faithful to the home ties. He
is not good workman because he has
not been encouraged to become skill
full laborer, and because all tropical
people must be lazy, judged by any
northern standard. But the Filipino
is clever with his hands and exceed
ingly Initiative. He is beautiful pen
man and a fine craftsman.
The educated Filipino, that is, one
man In ten, is courteous. well-spoken,
graceful, and a very pleasant COM
panion. Hospitality is an art with
him. He is full of poetic flights, and
very fluent with the mellifiuous Span
ish tongue.
Ambition for himself and for his peo-
pie give him purpose and vigor when
otherwise he might take things too
easily. For In q way he Is irrespon-
Kble. II he does not like TO work, he
will throw up and go to live for an
indefinite time with his relatives. Thus
he lacks the motive for labor But in
a national crisis like that which he
has been going through for the last
score Of months, he is determined. sin
cere and energetic.
