According to recent religious sta
tistics, it is found that while in
the past hundred years, the popu-
lation of the United States has in-
creased thirteenfold, church men,
bers have increased four times as
much, a hundred years ago half
million dollars would probably
cover everything raised for these
purposes; now the churches OF this
country spend annually over twen-
ty-eight millions on hospitals, Or
phanages, and other benevolence
five and a half millions for foreign
missions, and an equal or greater
sum for home missions. The an
nual expenditure for the churches
and benevolent work is estimated

church at Lexington has decided
to install instrumental music.

From the Philippines.
sIcIssI, slCIssI, PHILIPPINE Is
LANDS.

| We left Sinaloan and the Island
of Luzon in the month of May, and
after six or seven days on the wat
er we reached 5his place. This is
a small island about seven miles
square and belongs to the Zulu
group which lies south Of Minda'
noa and is inhabited by the Mo
roes, a wild, ignorant people, and
+! followers OF the Mohammedan re-
lligion. they are ruled bya Sultan
The men have as many wives as
they can get, or keep. Some oi
them wear clothes and some.doni
They live mostly on fish. The ma
tives OF this Island have never
given the Americans any trouble
so lar, butthe Spaniards have been
among them and wouldn't like to
trust them too far.
don't think this country will
ever amount 10 very much until
about two-thlrds of the natives are
gotten rid of in some way, Tor the
country is too thickly settled. In
Luzon, which is the largest of the
group, the natives are filled and
terrorized with the Roman Catho-
lie religion to such an extent that
it Is an easy matter for the Padre
or Priest to get all of their money
or property. While we were at
Sinaloan corporal and a private
or two were out for walk and on
the outskirts of the village they
found woman beating herself
with a chain. She had beaten her
self until she was all covered with
blood. This was a punishment for
something sne had done, and was
ordered by thePriest. SO you can
see what a hold the Catholics have
got amongst these Epoor ignorant
people. For some reason there are
no Protestant missionaries In the
Islands. All the American school
teachers that | have seen are Cath
ollcs, but here among the Moroes
the Spanish failed to convert the
people from Mohammedonism.
This is healthy place, but it is
pretty warm. The trees and grass
are green all the time.
Our quarters are surrounded by
banana trees and cocoanut trees.
Ifyou could see and hear some
of the musical instruments that
Moroes have y5u would admit that
the sons of Malka at midnight, or
your notched sticks, were not in it.
This is Sunday and the natives i
think are going to have bullfght.
There is not much here for amuse-
ment, We have troop library
but | have read about all the books
in it. We have no horses here.
