Inose OF upper CLASS dlghly Educated

Among the high class natives,
says a nurse just returned from the
Philippines, there is a standard of
intelligence and culture that is actu-
ally superior to that displayed by any
American families which have gone
to Manila yet. These people all
have continental educations. They
are artists and musicians and lin
gusts of great ability And the way
they live is dazzling, even to us
Americans, who are used to a display
of wealth. Their houses are sumptu-
ously furnished, surrounded by beauti-
full lawns and fairly thronged with ser
wants.
''The Filipinos who are wealthy are
enormously so. | knew one land own
er there whose house proved too small
for him. He wanted to give a magnifi-
cent entertainment last winter in
honor of his daughters return from
school This man, when he found that
he could not purchase outright the
adjoining house, rented it for two
months at a cost of $25 900.
There are plenty of old families n
Manila who could and no doubt would
do the same thing" concluded the
nurse, according to the Philadelphia
Times. They say they are Ameri-
cenistos, but l believe almost all of
them are secretly contributing money
to the rebels cause"

The morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1899-1930, 1902-03-27

NEW YORK, March Is John Hays
Hammond, who was for many years
and up 10 the time Of the death OF
Cecil Rhodes intimately associated
with him in the development Of South
Africa, was consulting engineer Of the
British South Africa Chartered Com
pany and the Consolidated Gold Fields
Of South Africa, In which Mr.. Rhodes
held important interests. had this TO
ray Of Mr.. Rhodes:
Mr. Rhodes whose sun went down
when II was yvt day. died in the 18th
year OF his age, He leaves no poster
ity bus leaves his name on the map Of
Africa 1RhodesIal, sponsor for COM
monwcalth nearly as large as our
Western states Had he lived he would
have devoted the remaining years Of
his life TO and would have spent every
dollar Of has fortune In equipping that
commonwealth.
Unfortunately his character was
misunderstood in America. Judged by
American standards, Mr.. Rhodes was
truly a great man, He was not only
a great empire builder, but also cap
tain of Industry. He is oftener re-
ported AZ shifty INSCRIPTIONS flnan-
cier, In league with capitalists to
coax the Transvaal into hopeless war
In order to steal the mines OF the
country, He is also reported as giving
his entire life 10 the amassing OF large
wealth, and ready 10 employ the most
unscrupulous methods to that end.
But by even the most bitter OF his
enemies conversant with the facts,
such allegations are repudiated.
"The truth Is that Rhodes cared Mt
tie for money beyond the power It
gave him to assist In the development
OF South Africa. From most inti-
mate connection with him in his busi-
ness enterprises. | am able to state
that his methods OF finance were not
only scrupulouslv honorable, but were
characterized by unusual liberality,
He was known to South Africans as a
man OF unbounded generosity, and one
on whom they could depend for the
furtherance of any deserving local en-
terpr1se or worthy charity.
Personally, Mr.. Rhodes was demo-
cratic in his tastes, and colonial in
his political and social bias He was
fond Of the simpler and better pleas
ures of life, devoted especially to
out-of-door life on the veldt. and had
n dlsdain for social conventionallties.
He was man Of innate refinement
and culture, and graduate Of Ok
ford"
